Do you remember the "petrified

discovered in gravel bed near Leav-
enworth a few years ago. and which
had the scientists of the whole coun-
try guessing? This wonderful speci-
men was made from a plaster of paris
cast by Charles Farmer, an eccentric
old gentleman who lives on a farm al
joining that of John Cory near Lowe
mont. The cast was taken from a hu-
man being. Farmer had arranged with
another man to help him out in his
scheme to make some money. Ac-
cOrdingly the specimen was hidden in
ravine near Miocene, three miles
northwest of Leavenworth, and was
found per the arrangements. 1t was
taken to Leavenworth and placed on
exhibition as a genuine petrified man.
Great interest was manifested in it
and the owners realized a neat sum by
charging an admission fee TO it. Sci
entists examined it and were puzzled.
Finally Farmer traded the curiosity
for 100 acres of land in South Dakota,
and the new owner went on a tour
of the East, attracting attention every
where. Farmer diyulged the secret to

A TRUE INCIDENT.

a French family has recently had its
fortunes restored in a way to suggest
story telling. The family was wretch
edly poor, selling one possession after
another in order to meet the demands
Of the butcher and grocer. One day the
mother in moving an old desk of her
great-Grandfather. came upon an old
book, between the pages of which
was a stamp Of the Island of Maurice
Of 1S47.
A traveller stopping to rest in the
cottage one day saw this stamp, which
a boy was sticking to a homemade en-
veIope, playing 'postoffice" with a lit
tie friend. This traveller a man Of
wealth and collector of curios) saw
that It was very rare. In truth there
were but two others in existence, one
belonging to the King Of England and
one to the Czar of Russia. He told
the family Of their treasure, and it was
through his interest and exertions that
the stamp was subsequently sold for
$75O0.-Indianapolis News.

GAME oF oRaAN nuILpER.

This is really interesting game
much played by German children.
First, the players choose one ef their
number to be the Organ Builder. He
goes around among the rest and places
them in a straight row. Each player
must hold out both his or her hands
folded in front OF him, and the Organ
Builder goes along the row, saying:
''These are good organ pipes" Then
he taps each players hands lightly
with thin stick. and the player whom
he touches must give forth long. sus-
tained sound to represent a tone Of the
pipe.
II the tone does not suit the Organ
Builder, he may demand an improve
ment, but only once, and the players
must obey.
After he has heard a sound from
each "organ pipe he retires long
enough to be blindfolded while he
is away all the organ pipes" change
places.
When be returns. the Organ Builder
says:
"Alas. hove viii my organ be, now
am blind and cannot seef'
He reaches out with his stick and
taps the outstretched hands Of one OF
ale players. The one who is struck
.must Immediately utter the same sound
as he or she did the first time, aud the
Organ Builder may demand that ii be
repeated three times.
Then he must say:
"Ah, this pipe is-" naming the
player who he thinks II is.
II he has not guessed correctly, all
the players dance around him and sing:
WHAT builder have we hereg
What wretched, wretched ear.
Though the pipes sound out so ciearl"
Then they all change places again.
and the Organ Builder must try the
next 'pipe"
II, however, he guesses correctly, the
players sing:
Though the master have no sight,
He can tell his pipes arighti
See your organ with deAghtl'
And they pull the bandagc from his
eyes. The pipe" whose name has
been guessed must take his place
