Lead Workers.

It is said that lead working dis
figures the human body more than
any other kind of work. In this
industry it is inevitable that sooner
or later the workers must succumb
to lead poisoning, and there would
appear to be no part of the body
that the poisonous fumes and float
ing particles which permeate the
atmosphere of the workshops do
not affect. The complexion takes
on a CHASTITY, corpselike pallor, the
gums turn blue, the teeth decay
rapidly and fall out, and the eye
lids are hideously infamed. a
scratch or an abrasion of the skin
becomes an unbeatable sore. Later
on, when nerves and muscles be-
come affected by the poison in the
blood, the eyeballs are drawn into
oblique positions and take on a dim
and bleared appearance. The joints,
especially the knee and the wrist.
become semiparalyzed, and the
whole form is gradually bent and
contorted.

A pisausted Salesman.

Henry Sweetser many years ago
was a salesman for Joel Gold
thwaite, carpet dealer, of Boston.
One day he was called to show car
pets to a lady who had plans of all
the rooms of house for which she
wished to select suitable carpets.
Thinking it a chance for a good
sale, for two hours he showed car
pets, helping her with his judgment
to make good choice for each
room, and, having decided on the
carpets, he said, tfNow we will have
these cut off, and where shall we
send them2"
"Well," the lady said, etmy hus-
band is looking at lot, and if he
buys it we shall build this house,
and then we shall want the car
pets"
Mr.. Sweetser was too astonished
to speak, and she walked calmly
from the store after bidding him

A ROYAL FAD FOR JEWELS.
Louis XIV. and the Famous Crown of
Asrippina.

Louis XIV. and the Famous Crown OF
AsriPpina.
Louis XIV. had an unconquer-
able passion for jewels, and his most
valued possession was the famous
crown of Agrippina, which was com
posed of eight tiers of immense
brilliants in a transparent setting.
He kept the most precious of the
crown jewels in his private cabinet
in order that he might admire and
examine them at his ease, an occu-
patton in which he took much de-
light. Nor did he ever hear of a
gem of great value either in Asia,
Europe or any other country with
out making strenuous efforts to Sc
cure the prize.
At an entertainment given by
Louis to the Princess of Modena it
happened that the conversation
turned on the fashions and designs
of jewelry, which prompted the
Marquis de Dangean, who prided
himself on his antiquarian knowl-
edge, to observe that it was in the
time of Nero that the imperial
crown was first arched, whereupon
Louis remarked that he possessed
one himself and that the Marchion-
ess de Montespan would produce it
for him.
When the sparkling circlet was
brought forth it excited universal
admiration, but when the king OBJ
tanned a close look at it he ex-
claimed to the marchioness: GLOW
is this, madame? This is no longer
my crown of Agrippinal All the
stones have been changedw
The setting was intact, but the
brilliants had been replaced by
paste. When the mystery was
solved it was proved that the maker
of the casket which held the crown
had pretended an attachment for
one of the waiting women of the
Marchioness de Montespan, who
during his visits, having free access
to where the crown of Agrippina
was kept, had substituted mock dia-
monds for the true ones. He was
convicted and hanged, upon which
occasion Louis remarked to the
duchess, 'He has at least left us
the setting, but Cromwell would
have seized it whole" Sunday

the Silence club. Its membership
was limited to ten, all of whom were

established simply and solely to en-
able the members to read the paper
on the way to town, the only occa-

from subscriptions was handed to
