AS Good as a Porter.

1t is curious how many people are in
ignorance Of simple little facts in con-
nection with everyday life which
would save them a large amount Of
unnecessary labor and fatigue. Take
the case of carrying heavy bag or
portmanteau, for instance. We all
know the annoying way in which it
knocks against our legs and the almost
intolerable ache in the arm that is sup
porting the burden. Few people are
aware, however, that by folding a cou-
pie of newspapers and putting them
under ones armpit large amount Of
the strain and inconvenience is imme-
diately removed. Try it next time you
are hurrying to catch a train.-Pear-
sons Weekly.

XanderhiIt,s Darnina Needle.

Commenting on the Thrifty habits OF
the late Commodore Vanderbilt, cor
respondent of the New York Tribune
tells a story which he says goes back
more than forty years, but may be told
again on that account" For years Mr..
Vanderbilt went to Saratoga every
year and spent hours every day on the
Congress Hall porch smoking. my
brother" says the story teller, who
lived near the springs. loved horses
and used to drive to the village and go
to the Congress and listen to the Van
derbilt horse talk. One day he noticed
a big darning needle stuck through the
lapel of the great railroad mans coat
and in wondering what it was there
for missed much Of the conversation.
Its use developed when the Vanderbilt
cigar became too short to be held by
the fingers with comfort or safety to
the smoker. Then the stump was
speared by the needle and held for fur
Their incineration. Aided by the darn
ing needle, the cigar was smoked to
the bitter-to him sweet-end. And he
was not the least bit ashamed to let
people see him make use of the darn
ing needle.

Danulinu Near Death.

An Italian smuggler named Predoni,
accompanied by his daughter Rose,
aged eighteen, after having completed
purchases In Switzerland Of contra
band goods. set out to cross the Fraele
pass (7,2OO feet high. in Italy. The two
were approaching the summit Of the
pass when they were overtaken by a
thick mist, in which they lost their
way. They roped themselves together.
Suddenly Predoni, who was leading,
fell over a precipice, Jerking his daugh-
ter off her feet. By means of her ice
ak Rose stopped herself from being
dragged over the precipice where her
father was dangling, suspended in mid
air. Predoni could not reach the pre-
cipitous side Of the slope to lessen the
strain on the rope, and as their cries
for help remained unanswered for an
hour he begged his daughter to cut the
rope and save herself. but this she re
fused TO do. Another half hour passed,
and as the mist cleared Rose saw three
other smugglers climbing the noun
tain. Her cries were heard. and the
smugglers rescued Predoni and his
brave daughter. who lost her senses on
being united and was carried down the
mountain.-London Chronicle.

Snorinq Snails.

Here is a tale from France thai
sounds like clear case Of nature fax
ing. A naturalist whose name is with
held has a few pet gastropods, which
he keeps in glass cages. Recently he
was writing at his table while his
snails rested in their quarters on the
mantelpiece. when strange, regular
noise disturbed him. 1t was a long
low hum, followed by short, louder
treble note. The naturalist got up to
trace the noise. He found that 1t came
undoubtedly from the mantelpiece.
Could the snails be snoring? He knock
ed sharply at the glass cages. The
snails woke up, the noise ceased. and
thus the naturalist made his discovery
that snails snore. He found on closer
observation that snails bred on vines
snore loudest. presumably under Bac-
chic infuence.-Chicago News.

EoREToLp HIS FUTURE.
Yhe Message Carl schurz Received
From Spirit Land.

An extraordinary experience with q
medium is given In the Carl Schurz
memoirs in McClure's.
After receiving what purported to be
q message from Schiller, General
Schurz asked that the spirit of Lincoln
be summoned to tell why President
Johnson had called Schurz to Wash
ington.
"The answer came, He wants you
to make an important journey for him.
asked where that journey would take
me. Answer, He will tell you tomor-
row. / asked further whether /
should undertake that Journey An
swer, Yes; do not fall Il may add,
by the way, that at that time had not
the slightest anticipation as to what
President Johnson's intention with re-
gard to me was)
Having disposed Of this matter, l
asked whether the spirit Of Lincoln
had anything more to say to me. The
answer came, Yes; you will be a sena-
tor Of the United States This struck
me as so fanciful that | could hardly
suppress a laugh, but | asked further,
From what state? Answer, From
Missouri This was more proyokingly
mysterious STILL but there the CONVEX
sation ceased.
Hardly anything could have been
more improbable at that time than that
| should be a senator of the United
States from the state of Missouri. My
domiclle was in Wisconsin, and l was
then thinking Of returning there.
had never thought Of removing from
Wisconsin to Missouri, and there was
not the slightest prospect Of my ever
doing so.
But, to forestall my narrative, two
years later l was surprised by an en-
tirely unsought and unexpected bust
ness proposition which took me to st.
Louis and In January, 1869 the legis-
lature Of Missouri elected me sena-
tor Of the United States. / then re-
membered the prophecy made to me
at the spirit seance in the house Of my
friend Tiedemann In Philadelphia"
