mains that they are pleased and

the lands which had suffered over
again; but many of the peasantry
were reduced to utter poverty, and
had not the wherewithal to buy them

Among these there was none worse
of than Ayesha's father, whose lands
being low and near the river, were
still under water. In an evil moment
he confided his difficulties to his new
made friend, Nassau. He comforted
him by saying that the waters would

He then left. A couple OF days later
he returned to say that, after long

to leave him and take service else
where, the latter had consented to
lend the money required without In

should have the right to sell Ali's

Taking advantage of his intended
inability to read, Nassau con

payment would have to be made; In
stead of its being six months hence.
as he had told All, the loan would
have to be repaid in as many weeks.
Five weeks had already gone by.
when one day Nassau, holding an
open letter, came to Ali to say that
his master had written to him that
he wanted all the ready money he
could send him. and that he had to

According to an account in an old

reached the enormous height of 80
feet 1t says: "Fazellus relates, and
from him Cluverius, that 1547 A. d.,
near Panormum, in Sicily, the body Of
a giant was dug up about Is cubits. or

that A. ID. 1916, near MaZerene, in Sic
lily, there was found the body Of a
giant 20 cubits, or 30 feet, tall. Furth-
er, that A. ID. 1913, near Syracuse, was
dug up another body of the same di-
mansions. A. d. 1850, near Entella. in
Sicily, was dug up body 33 feet high,
and whose skull was about 10 feet in
circumference. There is described the
corpse of a giant of great size, found
standing la a vast cave near Depran-

was like the mast of a ship, and the
forepart of whose skull would contain
a Sicilian bushel, which is about a

OLD WALL USED AS A SAFE.
Vermonter Finds Purse and Coin Hid
den Nearly Century Ago.

While Louis Granelle of Bridgewa-
ter, VT. was tearing down an old
wall OF the Bridgewater town farm he
unearthed a purse hidden in a small
vault built for the purpose between
the stones. The leather was rotten
with age and fell apart as soon as
handled, but the several coins which
it contained were as bright and fresh
as on the day they left the mint. As
the newest coin in the lot was struck
off 20 years ago and the structure was
built about 1892, il is believed that the
purse has lain in its vault three
quarters OF a century The money
found in the old wallet included II
silver half dollars. ranging in date
from 1872 TO 1892, and another coin.
probably an English fourpence, dated
1875. There We're also ,hree dimes

What He Wanted.

of a Portland street hardware and

and in his broken English asked the
clerk: "John-a, you got-a de ma
chine make-a hot-a cold?' The
clerk tried hard to understand what
the customer wanted, but was unable
until he started taking him around the
store and pointed out individually
every conceivable apparatus pertain
ing TO heating in the store. Finally
the Italian spied a small sprins- bal
ance suspended on an upper shelf
with the indicator displayed. "John-a,
see dis-a one" he said, "just de sam
Ia kind, wild nummers; make-a hot
IA cold. You got one?" He wanted
a thermometer.
