A Curious Trail.

All sorts Of devices have been used
to mark a line of march. A unique
method Of "blazing the trail" Is still to
be seen In Africa, and a recent publ
cation prints a picture Of one Of these
memorials Of the dervish raid. Arthur
]. Hayes mentions the subject in bis
Source Of the Blue Nile"
In 1889, after a fierce battle with the
Abyssinians, the dervishes pursued
their foes as far as the lake district.
The mahdi's men had small knowledge
of geography and little geographical
intelligence. So the advance party, In
order to mark the route for those who
came after and also to guide the force
on their return journey, twisted the
saplings along the way into living
knots. The war ended, but the tied up
trees grew and 6ourished. but I'M
couthly twisted and distorted, and are
now the only reminders Of that upris-
ing Of the dervishes.

Hard on the Chairs.

Among the ancestors Of Wendell
Phillips were several Puritan clergy
men. Perhaps it was a push Of heredi-
ty which made him at five years Of
age a preacher.
His congregation was composed OF
circles Of chairs arranged in his IA
theirs parlor, while taller chair, with
q Bible on it, served him for a pulpit.
He would harangue these wooden audi
tors by the hour.
Wendell" said bis father to him
one day, don't you get tired Of thisY'
mo, papa" wittily replied the boy
preacher. 81 don't get tired, but it Is
rather hard on the chairs"

Painful.

A little story comes from way back
concerning Forrest, the tragedian.
1t was during his last appearance
at Niblos Garden, in New York. Al
the time be was suffering untold tor
ture from the govt. A sort Of run
way had to be constructed from the
stage to the dressing room, for he was
quite unable to step up or down stairs.
The performance had been "Corio-
lanus," and Forrest was petulant from
pain and tired with his work. he
stumbled against the runway, causing
such a twinge in his toe as to make
him cry out with the pain.
A young actor standing by unfortu-
nately addressed the tragedian at the
wrong time, saying:
Dear me. Mr.. Forrest that must
have been exceedingly painful"
mot half so painful as your acting"
was the crnsty response.

Most Of us associate the phrase TITS

Reade's famous novel, and very like
ly some Of us think be invented 1t
But It is really one Of the most an
clent gems Of popular philosophy. A
correspondent Of London Notes and
Queries has discovered 1t in a petition
from the commonalty to the mayor
