How He Missed.

A correspondent of the London Pail
Mall Gazette, says: Il had friend

another one-who did his duty to
himself and others with such zeal that
he never went to bed without taking
hi temperature Or got UP without
taking scientific decoction the name

gotten; the flavor, however, was such
as rendered the duty performed par.
ticularly meritorious. His dietary was
based on the most scientific prin.
ciples; he had his appendix removed,
SO as to aviod all risk of appendicitis,
and, in short, he so fully realized the
duty of being healthy and long-lived
that he never had time to do anything
else or talk about anything else. I'm.
fortunately, he never took the tickle
jade Fortune into his calculations
and after only year of striving most
manfully to fulfill the duty OF being
long-lived he slipped on piece of
orange peel and fractured the base of
his skull.
And the moral of all that is that if
he had not bothered himself so much
about his health. though he might
still have died through slipping; on
piece of orange peel the last year of
his life would, at any rate, have been
more profitahly spent"

A FINLAND BOYS BATH.

When the boys OF Finland want to
take bath, this is the way they
do it:
In the first place, it is very, very
cold in Finland, and the bathroom
is not in the house at all, but is in
building quite separate.
1t is a round building, about the
size OF an ordinary room. There are
no windows, so light and air only
come in when the door is open.
inside benches are butt along the
wall, and in the center is great pile
of loose stones. Early on Saturday
morning wood is brought in, and
great vessel standing near the stones
is filled with water
| Then someone cuts ever so many
birch switches, and these are placed
on the floor of the bath house. Next,
the fire is made under the stones,
and 1t burns. all morning. In the aft
| ernoon, when the stones are very hot,
the fire is put out, the place is swept
clean, and all is ready.
The boys undress in their houses
and run to the bath house. AS it is
generally thirty degrees below zero,
you may be sure they do ii in double
quick time.
AS soon as they are in the bath
house they shut the door tight and
begin to throw water on the hot
stones. This, of course, makes the
steam rise. More water is thrown on,
and there is more steam, until the
place is quite full.
And now comes the part that
think you would not like at all. Each
boy takes birch switch and falls to
whipping his companions. This is to
make the blood circulate, and, though
it is real hard whipping. no one OBJ
jects. but all think 1t great fun. At
last, loo King like a lot Of boiled lob
sters, they all rush out, have roll
in the snow, and make for home

one for each wheel. These bladders
are covered with strong flexible ma
terlal. something that will withstand
hard wear, and are fastened between
the front and rear axles and the sup
port of the body of the vehicle. An
air chamber is secured beneath the
center of the vehicle and connected by
air tubes with the bladders. The COW
ers of the bladders are provided with
metallic members, which lie over the
vehicle axle and are clamped to hold
the pneumatic spring in place. The
ends of the upper supports Of the body
of the vehicle are bent downward and
arranged to strike the axle to prevent
the cushions and air chamber from
being pinched. The inventors idea
seems to be good, as it is apparent
that such cushions acting as springs
would be sufficient to prevent the We

Whose children are you?" he asked
suddenly.
"We-uns live to Uncle Pete Gripe's,
but we-uns air Dave Lewis children;
our pa died in the mountains. an our
ma died out hyar, an this Is her grave"
explained Tile.
The man drew them to him in quick,
passionate embrace. saying rapidly:

your pa come back to you! This Is a
happy Easter to me, for l am restored
to the children who I was told died
with her whose grave I'm now kneelng
by" and his frame shook with the uten-
sity of his emotion.
Dave Lewis had not persisted In the
blizzard as had been reported. A noun
taineer had rescued him and taken him
to his cabin. where he had lain sick for
months. When he was able to cross the
mountains to the nearest postofiice. he
had learned through the postmaster back
home that his wife and children had
gone to Kansas. and all had been swept
away with fever.
Caring little what became of him, but
too poor to return to his friends. he had
turned back to the mountains
For nearly four years he had had n
hard struggle of it. then luck suddenly
changed. and Dave Lewis and his part
ner began turning out geenrous quanti-
ties of gold.
Selling out his interest in their mine
for small fortune, Lewis had left the
Rockies. He had come to Windyvillc
to find the graves of his family. Tired
with his long walk, he had entered the
church to rest, before seeking Gripe's
cabin.
Tillie and Bonnie now have home
of their own. with all they need to
make them happy.

The Niohammedan Faster.

Bairam is the name of the Moham-
medan Easter. 1t follows Ramadan,
which corresponds to Lent. and lasts
three days. During this time visits are
exchanged and presents are made in
much the same spirit as that which char
acterizes our Christmas. AT Constants
nople the streets are throneed and bands
of music parade day and night. The
decorations OF the boats in the Bosphorus
are striking and beautiful. The Sultan
celebrates the day by worshiping in the
mosque. after which he gives an informal
reception to his friends in the palace of
Dolmabaktche. During this reception
the Sultan occupies throne of great
splendor placed in the midst of the vast
and beautifully decorated audience hall.
