IF Jupiter Were Inhabited.

Calculations as to the size required
for human beings on the other planets
vary widely, according to the basis of
reckoning According to those based
upon the attraction of gravity. Jupiter
should be peopled by pygmies of TWEEN
ty-eight inches. Wolfus, on the other
hand, argued that Goliath himself
would be accounted decidedly under
sized upon that planet He worked
from the feebleness of the suns light
there, which would demand that the
pupil Of the eye should be much more
dilatable Since the pupil stands in a
constant proportion to the pail of the
eye and that to the entire body. said
Wolfius, u little calculation shows that
an average Jovian must be nearly thir-
teen feet seven inches tall-not quite
four inches shorter than Og, king of
Bashan, according to the measure of
his bedstead given in Deuteronomy.

"Bon jour, madame" This in a cor

smile is the welcome of your French
tradesman or tradeswoman. With low
~ bows and widespreading smiles he
shows himself delighted to serve you.
It you look over everything in the shop
and buy only the wing of a chicken,
yet he will just as smilingly bow you
out and hope to see you again.

quantity, 2 cents WORTH cents worth

and a smile, as if to say, ''What

POISON IN FLOWERS.
Dainty and Beautiful Blossoms &
Which Turks Death.

When the good friar in Romeo and
Juliet reflected upon the properties
of the simple flower, within whose
infant rind poison hath residence and
medicine power" his observation en-
braced a goodly category of well
known flowers whose secretions fur
nish the world with so many poisons.
For instance, the laburnum. which
has been compared to a fountain of
gold leaping into the sun-a most
charming Sights one of the most
poisonous things imaginable, inasmuch
as it is poison in leaf and flower and
seed. Even the grass growing be-
meath it is poisonous by reason of it's
proximity to the innocent looking bios

necessary to guard against cattle eat.
ing this grass for fear of fatal results.
The bulbs Of such dainty and beau
tiful flowers as the narcissus, hyacinth,
jonquil and snowdrop secrete the most
deadly poisons, not to speak of the
| oxalis, the monkshood and the fox
glove, all of which furnish noxious
liquors sufficient to destroy life =
To these may be added certain of
the crocuses, the lovely lady's slipper,
the quaint old jack-in- the-pulpit and
the laughing little buttercup. The lat
ter, despite its most innocent appear
ance, is one of the worst of the poi
sonous flowers. Even the COW is aware
of that and carefully avoids it. The
cousins of the buttercups, the peo

contain toxic fluids.

the superb catalpa tree contains ~

What It Shows When Placed Under 4
Powerful Microscope.
y Few people know what wonderful
object bit Of chalk is when examined
under a microscope. Take your knife
blade and scrape off a little Of the
loose powder, catch it on clean glass
slide and place this on the stage Of a
good table microscope. Use, a quarter
inch objective lens and illuminate the
field with cone Of light from the
cancave side of the reflector. The pow
der will be seen to consist of a con-
fused mass Of beautiful tiny shells,
many Of them Of the most curious
form.
a better way, however, is to rub
down portion Of chalk with an old
toothbrush in a tumbler half filed
with water. II you desire to prepare
several slides rub on about teaspoon
ful OF the powder. Shake the tumbler
br1skly, allow the sediment to settle
for moment and then carefully pour
of the milky looking water.
Repeat this until the water remains
clear. and you will then have left in
the bottom only perfect shells or large
parts Of shells. Take up small pinch
OF this deposit and spread it carefully
over the center of a glass slide. Dry

A CUNNING WEASEL.
The Trick by Which He Trapped His
Big Rat Antagonist.

The Trick by Which He Trapped His
Big Rat Antagonist.
Once sawmill in western town
was infested with rats, which, being
unmolested, became very numerous
and bold and played round. the mill
among the men while they worked dur
ing the day. But one day there an.
peared on the scene weasel, which
Immediately declared war on the ro
dents.
One by one the rats fell victims to
the weasel's superior strength, until
only one very large, pugnacious rat
was left Of the once numerous colony
The weasel had go at the big rat
several times, but on each occasion
the rodent proved more than match
for his slender antagonist and chased
the weasel to hiding place,
Shortly thereafter the weasel was
seen busily digging under lumber
pile near the mill. He was engaged
for some time, but later appeared
again in the mill. seeking his old enc
my. He soon found him and at once
renewed hostilities AS usual, after a
lively tussle the rat got the better of
the argument, and the weasel ran, pur-
sued closely by the rat, straight to the
hole under the lumber pile.
He ran in, still followed by the rat,
but Immediately reappeared round
the end of the pile and again lodged
into the hole behind the rat Neither
was seen again for some time, but the
weasel finally reappeared, looking no
worse for the fight
The curiosity of the men in the mill
being aroused, they proceeded to in
vestigate the hole under the lumber
pile. They found that the weasel had
dug the hole sufficiently large at the
opening to admit the rat, but had
gradually tapered it as he proceeded
until at the other end it barely allowed
his own slender body to pass
When the rat chased him into the
large end of this underground tunnel
he quickly slipped through, and while
the rat was trying to squeeze his large
body into the smaller part of the hole
the weasel lodged in behind him,
caught him in the rear and in a place
where he could not turn round and fin
ished him at his leisure. - Harper's

her in the face and speak to her-and
what he come to say to her then was
that she was shame and a disgrace
to him, but sure what could he ex-
pect anyhow when he was such a no.
torious fool as ever to marry beggar
of race of beggars. Get up, says
he, "and dress yourself, and leave my
sight and my castle for evermore."
Very we'll and good, me lord" says
Saav, says she. "I'm ready I was
prepared for this, as you'll remember,
before ever I married you; but" says
she, you remember your agreement
three back burdens of the greatest val
tables I choose to carry out of your
castle at my lavin'?''
''Ehirty-three," says he, IF you like.
Twill be cheap price to get rid of
you.''
'"Thanky, me lord" says she. 'Tll
only ask three And before I've got
them out maybe you'll think it's
enough"
''What is the first back burden you
choose?' says be-
"A back burden" says she, ''of gold,
silver, diamonds and jewelry.''
In a short time the king had bur-
den of them piled on her that near
almost broke her back, and with it she
went out over the drawbridge
When she laid it down and come
back in again says the king, says he.
"What will your second back burden
be-"
"For my second back burden" says
she, ''hoist up on me our baby boy"
The king gave a groan that'd rent

daunted before any woman. He lifted
with his own hands the boy in whom
his heart was wrapped up and, settin'
his teeth hard, put him on Saws

When she come back again says
Colin, says he, "Now then, name your
third and last burden, and we're done
with you forever, thank God!'

The Word silhouette.

The little black pictures called 'sil-
houettes'' derive their name from Eth
enne. de Silhouette, who was the
French minister of finance in 1859.
His extreme economy in matters of
finance was caricatured by all classes,
and any cheap mode or fashion was
sarcastically called by his name.
About that time these profles were
produced by casting the shadow of a
face on the paper by the light of a
candle and tracing about it. Because
they were cheap they were called in
ridicule at the minister "silhouettes,"
and the name has ever since been re-
tained.-Boston Globe.
