LUNAR SCENERY.

It's Appearance Proves the Moons
Lack Of Air and Water.
It is by indirect methods of observa-
ton that scientists learn Of the alb
sence of atmosphere in the moon.
There are various arguments that can
be adduced, but the most conclusive is
that obtained on the occurrence Of
what is called the occultation Of a
star. It sometimes happens that the
moon comes directly between the earth
and a star, and the temporary extinc-
ton Of the latter is an Occultation. We
oan observe the movement when it
takes place, and the suddenness of the
extinction Of the star is extremely re-
markable. If the moon had a copious
atmosphere, the gradual interposition
Of this would produce a gradual ex-
tinction of the star and not the sudden
phenomenon usually observed.
This absence of air and water from
the moon explains the peculiar and
weird ruggedness Of the lunar scenery.
We know that on the earth the action
Of the wind and of rain, of frost and of
snow is constantly tending to wear
down our mountains and reduce their
hard outlines, but no such agents are
at work upon the moon.

They Kept a Bible For Luck

At Sycamore, ILL.,, a well known bust
ness firm makes it a practice to keep a
Bible in the safe. The custom was
commenced a long time ago, and the
big steel box is never locked UP unless
t contains the book. 1t is kept in the
money drawer of the safe. 1t is found
necessary to remove it occasionally. but
t is always carefully replaced.
The men who adopted this queer
practice when they commenced bust
less years ago have little to say in ex-
llanatiOn. In all their business life
heir safe or store has never been rob-
led or entered. They have had a con-
inuous good business and are among
ne most successful business houses of
he town. All Of the members of the
.rm attend the churches of the town,
Tut all are liberal in their religious
Jews, and the prevailing belief in the
own is that Holy Writ is kept in the
;afe principally for good luck.-Chi-
ago Tribune.

BY HOOK OR BY CROOK.
An Ancient Phrase That Has Many
Phases of Meaning.

An Ancient Phrase That Has Many
Phases of Meaning.
The phrase 'by hook or by crook
may simply refer to an ancient GUS
TOM ~ Mich allowed persons to collect
for fuel dead wood in the kings forest
such as they could break off and re-
move with 'cart, hook and crook"
Some trace it's significance "by foul
means or by fair to the contrasted
uses of the footpad's hook or the
bishops crook.
Others remind us of the expression
in very early days 'by huke DER
krooke"-that is, by bending the knees
and cringing low.
Another plausible explanation is that
after the great fire of London disputes
as to ownership Of land were settled
by two surveyors whose names were
Hook and Crook.
Quite different is the view taken by
those who tell us that when Strong
bow sailed for Ireland he instructed
his men to make their attack by Hook,
a promontory northeast of Waterford,
or by Crook, a harbor on the south
coast.
In any case, the phrase is very old,
for it was used by Bacon $3.50, by
Shelton, the poet laureate Q5OO), and
by Chaucer nearly 600 years ago.

wanted Bread; Had Courage.

One day, riding along the road, Gen
eral Gordon came upon a regimental
prayer meeting, which was very i'm
pressive The men were kneeling or
standing with bowed heads about the
chaplain, who was praying in a voice
Of wonderful compass.
The general checked his horse and re-
moved his hat and waited for the end
Of the prayer. The chaplain asked the
Lord to give the men of Lees army SUI
preme courage to meet the great crisis
that had come upon them, fortitude to
bear new privations and troubles,
strength to fight against the pursuing
enemy. Just then a tall private rose
from his knees and shouted to the chap
lain: "Pray for bread, chaplain; pray
for bread! We have courage to spare,
but to fight we must have something to
eat. Pray for breadv This broke up
the prayer meeting.

The COSter's Curl.

Many east London BARRIERS, who have
been journeymen in many west end es-
Establishments, declare that young cos
termongers and barmen, with the pc
culiar rolling curl that protrudes from
under the cap or bowler, are far more
particular about their hair than the
sons Of the aristocracy in general.
This same curl, standing forth from a
surface of hair that seems to have
been fiatironed, is not achieved with
out much trouble. Scores of these
young handles of the east subscribe to
''toilet club and have weekly atten-
ton given to their distinguishing curl
in manner that might be expected
of patrician beau.

A POISON FACTORY.
The stomach Is Always Busy Form
ing Deadly Substances.

The stomach Is Always Busy Form
ing Deadly Substances.
The body is factory of poisons. II
these poisons, which are constantly
being produced in large quantities in
the body, are imperfectly removed or
are produced in too great quantity as
the result of overlooking, the fluids
which surround the brain cells and all
the living tissues are contaminated
with poisonous substances which as
phyxiate and paralyze the cells and so
interfere with their activity. This fact
Explains in part at least the stupidity
which is a common after dinner expe-
fence with many persons.
When food is retained in the stom-
ach beyond the normal time, either be-
cause of it's indigestibility, the taking
Of too large a quantity of it or Grip
pied state of the stomach, these
changes are certain to take place. This
fact explains a very large share Of the
myriad symptoms which af1ict the
chronic dyspeptic. The giddiness, the
tingling sensations, the confusion Of
thought and even partial insensibility
which are not infrequently observed a
few hours after meals, in chronic dyS-
-)eptics are due to this cause. Here is
he explanation of the Feasibility, the
dependency, the pessimism, the indie
:ision and various other forms of men
al perversity and even moral deprav-
ty which are not infrequently associ-
tied with certain forms of gastro-in-

THE WORD "MOR."
How 1t Worked It's Way Into the
English Language.

How 1t Worked It's Way Into the
English Language.
The word "mob" is an abbreviation.
1t is nothing but fragment OF the full
Latin original mobile vulgus" = the
tickle common people" First the noun
"vulgus'' was dropped. Mobile" COM
ing into common use, was in few years
cut down to 'mob." By Swift it was
abominated to his dying day as a pc
culiarly odious kind of slang. Addi-
son sympathized with this feeling. In
No. 135 of the Spectator "mob' is put
down by him as one of the ridiculous
words which he fears will in time be
looked upon as part of the speech.
There must have been then host of
minor defenders of the purity of our
tongue who bewailed it's increasing use
and pointed to that fact as evidence of
the growing degeneracy of the lam
guage But the assailed form stoutly
held it's ground and outlived it's cen
surers. Addison's fears have been re-
allied. The Authorization has thorough
ly established itself. Accordingly a
word which their predecessors stigma
tized as corruption Of the vilest kind
is now used unhesitatingly by the most
precise of modern jurists. The reason
of its prevalence is obvious. 1t came
to supply very genuine want. There
is no other single word that conveys
definitely the idea Of a particular sort
of riotous mblage.-Harper's.

A Typical Bonaparte.

Princess Mathilde was a typical
Bonaparte. Beneath the skin of a
grande dame there dwelt the soul of a
vivandiere. She was generous and
tempestuous. Something of butt in
her prime, as a certain rather pro-
nOunced passage in Lord Malmesbury S
"reminiscences shows, she was uni
versally admitted at the same time to
possess taste and a knowledge OF the
arts. 1t was to her credit, too, that
she cared not a snap of her fingers for
dynastic disputes. She was on the
friendliest of terms with the Due d. Au-
male and is said to have tried, but in
vain, to conciliate some of the sitter
branches of the puzzle headed Bourbon
family. Altogether, she was a woman
who lived every moment of her life.-

HORSES AT SEA.

Aey Can Smell Land Long Before 1t
Comes In Sight.
The ability of horses to smell land
hen far at sea is not generally known,
ut the equine must be credited with
ais acute sense
When a we'll known horseman Of
Philadelphia went to Europe some time
go he took blooded horse with him.
he animal was in specially prepared
tall on deck and enjoyed the trip
espite the rough weather. When the
orseman thought land should soon be
lighted. he asked the captain how far
he ship was from the Irish coast. The
commander of the steamer, in his usual
ruff manner, replied: "Your horse will
ell you. Watch him."
The owner of the animal could not
understand what the captain meant,
md he was not particularly pleased
With the answer. Finally, however,
and couple of hours before land was
observed. the horse, which was a mag
nifcent bay, poked his head through
the grating and, stretching his neck,
whinnied loudly.
''There you are" said the captain to
the horseman. "Your horse smells the
land" The horse was like a different
animal thereafter until the coast loom
ed up.
The captain in explaining the odd
occurrence said that the thoroughbred
detected the odor from pasture lands
that was waited far seward and that
horses on board ocean steamers always
give the first signal when land is near.
