Won His WAGER,

Mrs. Somerville, the great methema-
tician and scientific writer. had to a
great extent the power of concentra-
ton and became SO absorbed in her
task as to be unconscious of what was
going on around her. DR.. Somerville
told Harriet Martineau that he once
laid wager with friend that he
would abuse Mrs. Somerville in loud
voice to her face and she would take
no notice, and he did SO. Sitting close
to her, he confided to his friend
the most injurious things-that she
rouged, that she wore wig and 9TH
er such nonsense, uttered in very
loud voice. Her daughters were in a
roar Of laughter, while the slandered
lady sat placidly writing. At last her
husband made a dead pause after her

HELPED BY A HAMMER.
A Little Business Incident to Which
Hanus a Moral,


Two blocks apart in certain street
are two stationery stores. The owner
of one has abundant capital. has
wide, roomy place with large stock
Of goods we'll displayed. The store Of
the other man is mere hole in the
wall in dingy building, yet this deal
er is getting most of the business.
The following incident may explain
1t. A woman who had just moved to
the vicinity stopped in the larger store
one evening to buy some picture nails,
but was told that they were not sold
there.
"Where can buy them?" she asked
politely.
~ don't know" said the proprietor.
The woman went to the smaller store.
This man had no picture nails either.
81 have a box of old nails that / use
myself" he explained. perhaps some
of them might do"
The woman gratefully accepted his
offer and found some nails that an
swered her purpose. She remembered
then that she had no hammer. Il can
lend you one." said the shopkeeper, 'if
you will bring it back in the morning"
Ever since that time that woman has
walked the extra blocks to patronize
the obliging merchant. She has told
her friends of the incident and influ-
enced them to become customers.
The lesson taught by this insignii-
cant incident is one that is only too
often neglected 1t pays small
tradesman to be obliging-it pays all
of us. Small favors bring large re-
turns.-Chicago Tribune

READING THE FLASHES.
Lighthouses Are Open Books to the
Experienced Mariner.

Experienced Mariner.
Passengers are generally astonished
when on n dark night they hear the
ships officer remark to another,
"There's Egg rock" or "Crabtree
LEDGE" or Beaver Tail" as the case
may be, naming some, headland or
shoal along the coast. The landlub-
ber strains his eyes and far away
there appears from time to time
flash Of light, red or white AS these
flashes seem to the passenger exactly
like those from hundreds of other light
houses, he is astonished at the officers
assurance.
1t is really very ensy matter to dis
tinguish the American lighthouses and
lightships, of which there are about
1900 along the Atlantic and gulf
coasts If one is possessed Of a copy of
the code issued by the lighthouse
board. Every light is known by the
fixed light, the duration of fash. the
length Of the eclipse or the number of
flashes shown in groups. No light
houses within hundred miles of each
ticulars. For instance, one guidepost
of the sea may flash white light
every fifteen seconds. never varying,
while the next flashes a red light every
FIVE seconds. The third may be an
alternate red and white fash, with in
tervals Of ten seconds between the
flashes, and so on. The audible fog
signals are identified by the time be-
tween the blasts Of the siren and the
continuance Of the blast.
Flashing lights are preferred to fixed
lights for the reason that fixed light
might be confused with some other
light on shore. Only white and red
lights are considered desirable in light
houses, since it has been found that
the rays from lights of other colors
cannot be seen at so great a distance
There is but one green light-a fixed
one-on the Atlantic coast.-Harper's
Weekly.

Earthquakes Bar Proaress.

Japan has a great number Of water
falls which would be of material value
in the development Of the country, but
the reason these valuable sources Of
power are not being developed is be-
cause of the danger of earthquakes
which is constantly confronting the
people. More than once within recent
years have steps been taken with the
view of constructing dams In order
that these falls might be utilized when
some demonstration of the earth has
given warning of the danger Of such a
step and the promoters have been
forced to abandon or greatly modify
the proposed mprovement.-New York

HUMAN SACRIFICE.
1t Appears to Be an Ordinary Occur

1t Appears to Be an Ordinary Occur
renee In Liberia.
OF certain aspects of Liberia Cap
tain Braithwaite Wallis writes in the
Geographical Journal: The pcpula-
ton of Jane is large. almost untouched
by the so called civilization on the
const. 1t is typical of western Africa.
The men have fine physiques and very
black skins. and most of them plait
their hair. which is worn about six
peared to be well armed with rifles,
guns. spears and swords. While in
this town saw even slaves, who were
held by the leg in wooden stocks.
They had been in that position for
some months. One of them told me
through the interpreter that he had
been kept thus for two years. He was
man OF poor physique, and pur-
chaser could not therefore be easily
found for him.
"That night. while asleep in my
little hut in the town, l was awakened
by hearing gentle chorus Of wom-
ems voices singing some yards away.
After few minutes the chorus ceased
and single voice began. In Bande,
an African song. The voice was soft
and melodious. and the tune was fas-
cinating and weird and harmonized
with the wild environment to which
1t belonged. After few lines the
other sinpnrs ininad and the result
was most attractive and beautiful,
containing as it did such delicate har-
mony with excellent taste. During
the years ! have been In Africa i do
not remember having heard anything
quite like this singing before, and
shall never forget 1t. The interpreter
told me the next morning that the
song was to the good spirits, asking
them to guard and protect the white
man and his followers on their jour
ney."
Another incident: "a few yards out
side the first stockade I noticed an
empty grave, the newly turned earth
dug. This grave. 1t appeared, had
been used for the purpose of burying
a man alive as sacrifice, and ] was
informed In most matter of fact
way and as If the occurrence was
quite an ordinary one that the un.
fortunate victims body had lately
been exhumed to obtain certain por-
Sons for the purpose of manufactur.

FLYING IN DREAMS.
A Sensation Like That Which Some.
times Precedes Death.


The sensation of flying is one Of the
earliest to appear in the dreams Of
childhood. 1t seems to become less
frequent after middle age. Beaunis
states that in his case 1t ceased at the
age of fifty. 1t is sometimes the last
sensation at the moment of death.
To rise, to fall, to glide away has
often been the last conscious sensation
recalled by those who seemed to be
dying, but have afterward been brought
back to life. Pieron has noted this
sensation at the moment of death in
number of cases, usually accompanied
by sense of we'll being. The cases he
describes were mostly tuberculous and
included individuals of both sexes and
with atheistic as well as religious be-
liefs.
In all the last sensation to which ex-
preston was given was one Of flying,
of moving upward. In some death was
peaceful, in others painful. In one
case q girl died clasping the iron bars
of the bed. in horror of being borne
upward.
Pieron associates this sensation with
tnC SchSutlOh VI tioiiiE uha hOhs
ing in dreams and with that of NOV
ing upward and resting on the air ex-
perienced by persons in the ecstadc
state. In all these cases alike life is
being concentrated in the brain and
central organs, while the outlying dis
tricts Of the body are becoming numb
and dead.
Dream flight, 1t is necessary to note,
y is not usually the sustained flight Of q
bird or an insect, and the dreamer
rarely or never imagines that he is
borne high into the air. Hutchinson
states that of all those whom he has
asked about the matter hardly one
has ever known himself to make any
high flights in his dreams. One al
most always flies low, with a skim
ming manner, slightly, but only slight.
ly, above the heads Of pedestrians.
Beaunis-from his own experience
describes typical kind Of dream
flight as series of light bounds at
one or two yards above the earth. each
bound clearing from ten to twenty
yards, the dream being accompanied
by delicious sensation of ease and
movement us wen us u iNeiy SuliSiaS
tion at being able to solve the problem
of aerial locomotion by virtue Of su
perior organization alone.
Lafcadio Hearn somewhat similarly
describes in his "Shadowings" typi
cal and frequent dream of his own as
a series of bounds in long parabolic
curves, rising to height of some twen
ty-fiye feet and always accompanied by
the sense that new power had beer
revealed, which for the future would
be permanent possession.-Atlantic.

Dreaded Premature Burial.

Meyerbeer. like many other notable
people, went in dread of premature
burial and left the most elaborate d.
rections with a view to preventing
such contingency. "My body is to
remain untouched for period of four
days after my death is certified, with
the face uncovered and in exactly the
same position as at the time am sup
posed to have passed away. On the
fifth day incisions are to be made in
the throat and in the feet" He also
directed that two men should be ap.
pointed to watch over him day and
night in case he should give any
signs of life and that bells should be
attached to his hands and feet.

Stock Growing in Barton County

The following item appeared in the
Kansas City Drovers Telegram on March
4th:
"W. 7. Diggens of Lamar, Mo-, has
been in and bought string of young
COWS. Only a few months ago, Mr..
Diggens landed in Barton county. from
near Arrow Rock, in Saline county, this
state. He bought farm of $50 acres,
on which there is considerable grazing
land. Mr.. Diggens was attracted to
that part of the state largely because
lands areucheaper there than where he
formerly lived. In order to raise and
Craze cattle, cheaper lands must be had
81 think the time has come when we
must raise more cattle here in the older
parts of the country" he said. "There
is no doubt in the world but what there
are hundreds of thousands of acres OF
land in Missouri lying idle that could
be easily converted into good grazing
farms, where cattle could be raised.

Second Class Mail,

In Canada, second class mail is hand
led at profit at one.fourth Of a cent
pound; in the United States it costs to
handle it, 80 the Postmaster General
says, over nine cents q pound. The
question is, what is the matter with our
postoffice Department. 1t is sometimes
answered that the trouble grows out of
the high prices paid the railroads for
transportation, but that is not sufficient
answer, in view of the fact that the al
legged deficit for handling second class
matter is almost twice as much as is
paid the railroads for carrying all the
mail. II all the mail were carried on
the railroads free, there would still be
an annual deficit OF nearly $50, 900
for handling second class mail The
system must be rotten which is respon-
sible for such results.

Little, but Of Great Use.

"Who, / wonder, invented that little
tab which now forms a part of the
pasteboard stopper of milk and cream
bottles?" said housekeeper the other
day. THE top shows no patent stamp,
80 far as I've been able to discover,
yet it's Of more practical value than
nine-tenths of the larger household
patents upon which thousands of dol
lars are annually expended.
How many forks. hairpins, hatpins,
icepicks and screw drivers one ruined
in month before this tab was dis
covered! How much matutinal pa
tience was shattered by the trick of
the little slabs of pasteboard devel-
oped of submerging themselves in the
bottles! Then some one bethinks him
self or herself of cutting out stopper
with a tab to it. You pull the tab
and the stopper lifts out as good as
pie. The inventor, whoever he may
DE, is a public benefactor."

AS the large open range country disap
pears, we must do something to stock
the country. Down in Saline county
where lived, lands are too high priced
so l sold out and went to Barton county
where they are cheaper, and just as
well adopted to raising cattle. regard
young COWS the best paying property in
the cattle line. These cows will each
raise calf this summer. In the fall on
good grass they ought to be fat. The
COWS will no doubt bring more than
they cost me now, counting the gain in
weight. Then will have a fine herd
of young stock cattle left in the calves.
Cattle raised on grass cost less than cat.
tie we buy on the market, counting the
freight and other charges in landing
them at home. 1t seems to me, there
fore, that it is good time to get in or

The fruits of the civic improvement
movement begun by the ladies' Alpha
club in this city are already beginning
to be seen in the greatly improved ap.
pearance of the city park property and
that of the different churches. Most Of
the latter have adopted the suggestion
of the Alphas that they plant trees on
the street fronting the church buildings
and row of young elms has been sci
outon each side OF the cement walk be-
tween the Laughed lumber yard anC
the depot. This is perhaps the mos
noticed improvement made, and attracts
gread deal of favorable comment, es
pecially by people passing through OF
trains.
