laeade,s Dramatic Eailures. y.

1caGet . pFanatlc r afiuFe8s FGls
It was not until 1856, when Charles
Reade was forty-two. that he obtained
reputation as a novelist, reputation
to which he did not aspire, for it was
his ambition to be a dramatist From
the beginning of his career until the
last year Of his life he wrote play aft
er play, every one Of them a failure
and he alone refusing to believe it, He
attributed their want of success to ev-
cry cause but the right one, and he
went on squandering the money gained
from his more successful novels on
the production Of bad plays. .'The ac-
tors are buffers, sir" he would say,
'who have defiled my composition,
mixed ditch water with my cham
pagne, murdered my work. and he
would pour out maledictions on the
heads of all who had anything to do
with the unfortunate piece, from seen
ic artist to super, never conceiving
that he himself was the sole culprit.
And vet. as his novels show, he had
dramatic ability OF a high order and
could produce the most thrilling ef-
fects and situations. He wrote two or
three dramas in collaboration with
Tom Taylor and Dion Boucicault that
had brief success, but apart from
these he never wrote play that met
with the slightest degree Of popular
favor. -;34et,.s .e

ITCHING HUMOR
ON LITTLE BOY
His Hands we're a Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over His Body
In Four Days the Child was
Entirely Cured Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTICURA
SOAP AND OINTMENT

One day we noticed that our little
boy was all broken out with itching
sores. We first noticed it on his little
hands. His hands were not as bad
then, and we didn't think anything
serious would result. But the next day
we heard Of the Cuticura Remedies being
30 good for itching sores, ETC., that I
thought would get them. By this
time the disease had spread all over his
body, and his hands were nothing but
solid mass Of this itching disease. I
went to the drug store and purchased
q box Of Cuticura Soap and one box Of
Cuticura Ointment, and that night ]
stripped my little boy and took the
Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water and
washed him well. Then dried him
with soft bath towel, and took the
Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him
thoroughly with it. I did this every
evening before put him to bed and in.
three or four nights he was entirely
cured. You have my permission to
publish this because anybody who sllf-
fered as my baby did ought to know Of
the Cuticura Remedies. I will surely
and gladly recommend the Cuticura
Remedies, for they are godsend to all
suffering with skin diseases. Mrs. Frank

An Unohservina Thief.

- Yosouf owned a beautiful horse
which was very valuable. While Yo-
souf was transacting business a thief
stole the horse. The owner shortly
afterward saw the thief leading his
horse and took him before the kaid, or
Judge.
'The horse is mine," sturdily insist
ed the thief .@;
In vain the other argued, and the
kaid was about to give his decision in
favor of the villain when Yosouf ad-
vanced suddenly. threw his cloak over
the horses head and demanded of his
enemy: - E'4z'
'.Sfnce you own the horse, tell the
kaid in which eye the animal is blind"
''ID the left" said the thief. making
a wild guess ~
Yosouf looked toward the kaid tri-
umphantly. Hes blind in neither
eye" said he. @.s..- r
So the noble horse came into its
rightfui owners possession again, and
the wicked Arab was punished.

remember curious incident con-

This oak, good tree of perhaps 200

called attention to something peculiar
on the taproot. On clearing this of
soil we found that the object was a
horseshoe of ancient make. Obviously

generations the root filed up the cir.

A STRANGE DISCOVERY.
Scientists Find That Beam Of Light
Produces Sound.

.
X One of the most wonderful discover
les in science that have been made
within the last year or two is the fact
that beam of light produces sound.
A beam Of sunlight is thrown through
q lens on glass vessel that contains.
lampblack, colored silk or worsted or
other substance. A disk having Sits
or openings cut in it is made to revolve
swiftly in this beam Of light SO as to
cut It up. thus making alternate flashes
Of light and shadow. On putting the
ear to the glass vessel strange sounds
are heard so long as the flashing beam
lis falling on the vessel.
Recently more wonderful discovery
has been made. A beam of sunlight is
made to pass through the prism SO to
produce what is called the solar spec
trum, or rainbow. The disk is turned.
and the colored light of the rainbow is
made to break through it. Now place
Aie ear to the vessel containing the silk.
wool or other material. AS the colored
lights OF the spectrum fall upon It
sounds will be given by different parts
Sof the spectrum. and there will be ST.
lence in other parts. u u
sS For instance, if the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flashes
upon It loud sounds will be given
Only feeble sounds will be heard when
the red and blue parts of the rainbow
fall upon the vessel. and other colors
make no sound at all. Green silk gives
sound best in red light. Every kind Of
material gives more or less sound in
different colors and utters no sound in
others.
# The discovery is a strange one, and it

come from it.-St. Louis Globe Demo
