Why Grant Never Swore.

While sitting one night, after
everyone had gone to bed, I said
to him: General, it seems singular
that you have gone through all the
tumble of army service and frontier
life and have never been provoked
into swearing. I have never heard
you utter an oath or use an impre-
cation"
well, somehow, or other, l never
learned to swear" he replied. when
a boy 1 seemed to have an aversion
to it, and when I became man
saw the folly of it. I have always
noticed, too, that swearing helps to
arouse a mans anger; and when a
man flies into passion, his adversary
who keeps cool always gets the bet
ter of him. In fact, I never could
see the use of swearing.\ I think it
is the case with many people who
swear excessively that it is a mere
habit, and that they do not mean to
be profane; but, to say the least,
it is a great waste of time. ."-Michf-
gan Christian Advocate.

Why He Couldn't Hear.

A certain Philadelphia banker who
is afflicted with ear trouble tells a
good Joke on himself as follows:
1--WE been worried about my hear
ing for some time, and finally the
fear of getting deaf became sort Of
obsession to me, and I decided to 60
over to New York to consult a spe-
cialist. I got over there and went to
see the doctor, and he looked so
grave 1 was more scared than ever,
and I was feeling pretty blue as I
walked down Fifth avenue with a
friend.
Suddenly 1 saw two special troll
leys' coming~down cross street filled
with children waving flags and ap-
parently having an awful good time,
but I couldn't hear a sound. In an
instant, without stopping to realize
that I could hear all the other noises
of the traffic and my friends voice, I
turned around and seized him by the
arm and shouted:
"My God, Joe, I'm deaf! I can't
hear those children at ALL"
Neither can l." said my friend
with roar of laughter; they're
mutes."

How to Kill Nut Grass.

The only way know to kill nut
grass is not to let it show leaf above
ground. This means constant clean
ing off, for it will be up next day, but
if constantly prevented from making
green leaves the roots will die. Nut
grass spreads more seed than from
the roots, and being neglected late in
the season, it fills the soil with seed,
and nothing but constant vigilance
will eradicate it. I have just made a
garden here from a piece of land that
is full of it, and I am going to do
just what I advise; clean up every
shoot every day, Nothing short of
this will answer. Geese penned on
the spots will keep it down, it is
said, but have never tried them

HUNG OVER NIAGARA GORGE.
Gymnast Faced Tragic Death for
Forty-ive Minutes.

Niagara Falls, n. Y, June 16.-
Suspended for As minutes 160 feet
over the Niagara Gorge, Oscar Wilson,
known as THE Great Houdin.' was
finally rescued by firemen and mar
rowly escaped tragic death.
Houdin attempted to slide on a ca
BILE, suspended by his teeth, across
the gorge just below the falls. He
set off, hanging by his teeth to lit
tie one-foot trapeze, which had no
more than a foot of rope up it. The
cable had a big sag and when little
past the center Houdin lost his mo-
mentum and came to stop.
For As minutes thereafter, which
seemed an age to the anxious specta-
tors, the man hung dangling over the
water, quite helpless. He eased his
position by first hanging by one arm
and then by another, and then chang
ing off with his legs.
Firemen were summoned and a ca
BILE pulley was secured, with 200
foot trailing rope attached.
Another line was run to the bridge
and the pulley was dragged by men
on the bridge along the cable till it
reached Houdin, who descended the
rope to the steamer Maid Of the
Mist, which had picked up the trail
ing end.
