An Expressive 8entence In Which It
Was Badly Twisted,
The professor of English, who was
taking a vacation trip on horseback
through the bills, bud occasion to make
notes of a good many quaint and In
teresting expressions employed by the
sturdy mountaineers. The one that
pleased him most was a striking use of
the little word "but."
The party had ridden for hours and
bad not found a single Inn. They were
hungry, and one of the guides suggest
ed tbot It might be possible to get a
bite to eat at one of the mountaineers'
huts.
'I know you can get corn bread
tiiere," be said.
The professor volunteered to go with
the guide to a hut high upon the moun
tain side In quest of the corn bread. A
dilapidated garden fence surrounded
the hut, and when the gate squeaked
on Its hinges n dog began barking. Si
multaneously a fat woman edged her
way through the door and approached
the men at the gate.
'What d' yo'-all want?" she called.
'Madam," said tho professor, "would
you be so kind as to tell ns whether we
can get uny corn bread here?"
"Cort bread!"
"Yes, corn bread." he repented. "We'd
like to buy some of you if you have
any."
"Corn bread? Com bread, did yo'
say?" Then she chuckled to herself,
and her manner grew more amiable.
"Why, if corn bread's all yo' want,
come right In, for that's Just what l
hnin't got nothing else on baud but."

PERPETUAL MOTION IDEAS.
Efforts of Inventors Who Strain After
the Unattainable.
rerpotual motion, like the philoso
pher's stone, is one of those tilings reg
ularly sought after. Years ago It was
proved thnt the Idea was absurd, yet
only a week or so ago another Inventor
come forward with a new perpetual
motion notion.
Some of these perpetual motion ma
chines are certainly extremely Ingen
ious. One man thought be had discov
ered a way to run omnibuses by them
selves. He had cylinder of water
placed Just above the axles, and on
these cylinders was supported the
whole weight of the bus and passen
gers. Pipes led from this water to
the back of the bus, curved round and
ended In the back board of the bus.
i . . . , "
me more passengers mere were the
greater the pressure on the cylinders
of water and the faster the How of
the water to the back of the bus. The
faster, too, will the bus rush forward;
At least, sn vHid U Inventor, who ac
tually tm.fc nut a patent for his Idea
Needles m say, no sm b buses are
numlm;
Another ingenious Idea was n wheel
wttli narrow shelves instead of spokes
I i i'iii Ii shelf was a lend hall, and the
Inventor claimed tlr.t once the uhwl
was started the halls on the falliii"
side kept rtiinilni: toward ilu. ,.ii...,,,.

But That Didn't Keep the Britannia
From Sailing on Time.
Boston harbor froze over In January
of 1844. and the advertised sailing of
the Britannia, then in dock, seemed
surely to be impossible.' But the mer
chants of Bostou would not have it so.
They met and voted to cut a wuy, at
their own expense, through the Ice,
that the steamer might sail practically
on time.
The contract for cutting the neces
sary channels was given to merchants
engaged, like Frederick Tudor. In the
export of Ice. but not Ice cut from the
harbor. Theii task was to cut within
the space of three days a channel about
ten miles long. For tools they bad the
best machinery used in cutting fresh
wnter Ice. and horsepower was em
ployed. The Ice was from six to twelve
Inches In thickness.
As the Advertiser of Feb. 2. 1S44. de
scribed the scene: "A great many per
sons have been attracted to our wharfs
to witness the operations and the curi
ous spectacle of the whole harbor fro
zen over, mid the ice has been covered
by skaters, sleds nud even sleighs.
Tents and booths were erected upon
the Ice. and some parts of the harbor
bore the appearance of a Itussiau holi
day scene."
On Feb. 3 the work was done, and
the Brltanuia, steaming slowly through
the lane of open water, lined on either
side by thousands of cheering specta
tors, made her way to the sea.
