Ad Irian legend lain It that a good fnlry oii'e v In I ted an old couple and promised them tlmt any three wishes tuny would make would le granted. After racking their liriilim for mine time In mi endeavor to discover what lliey desired most the couple decided to visit the (-.-unity flr to see If some tlilt if there would suggest what they wanted. They did so. and, after ram hllng Iiroiiml ni day find not seeing anything thai exactly suited them, to ward evening th(.y found themselves lieforc n display of kitchen utensils. Among tin-in was n soup Indie, cheap, hut likely to appeal to a woiniin.-so the old uoiiiiiii lu an nlisent moment said. "Oh, 1 wl-.li f hud one of those." and Immediately she had It. The old man was so enraged because his wife had thoughtlessly thrown away one valua ble wish that he retorted, "I whib that was stuck down your throat," and Im mediately this wag done. Thereupon he was at ouce aorry at what he wished, and the only thing left to do was to wish the ladle out again. So all three wishes went for naught How Snakes Gtt Ovtr Ground. ,' Although the snake appears to have no legs or feet, a may be said tin be practically supplied with upward' of a hundred pairs of them. In fact, each joint of the backbone bears a pair of ribs, which ore mobile and have their points attached lo the inner surface of one of the large transverse, phitelike scales which clothe the nndersurface of the body. Thus b the movements of the ribs attached to It each plate can be drawn forward and Its margin applied to the ground. By the succes sive application of these multitudinous plates the Ixxly can be drawn forwnrd In a straight Hue without Its being thrown into undulations from aide to side. Hut mold movomcn's arc also ef- ! fected j such undulations, and ser pents can by pressure and appropriate muscular action climb trees aud aome. times spring forward. They also swim easily by lateral flexures, but no ser pents advance by vertical bendiugs of the body, though they ,are so olten drawn In such mi attitude. Tho Sevan Wis Mn of Grsoc. The seven wise men of fJreece were Thales of Miletus, I'erlnnder of Cor inth, Clcohulus of Lyndus, Chiton of rjicedaiMiiou. Kolou of Athens, Unix of I'rlcnne and i'lttncits of Mltylene. Some fishermen of Miletus sold a draft of fishes to a bystander. When the net was dm n il In It contained n golden tripod, and the purchaser claimed it win' his, while the fishermen contend ed that they sold only the fish that might be In the net. The dispute wag referred to the oracle of Delphi, who awarded the tripod to the wisest man In (Jrcecc. Thcreii.on it was taken to Thales, who declined it and suggested tliat.it lie given to Bias. He In turn refused to accept It, mid thus it was successively declined by all the seven, and they were thereafter known as the seven wise men of Greece.

Owing to the peculiar topographical formation of Ilollvla, electric and other phenomena are of constant occurrence, the principal zone where such dis turbances take place being the Altl planlile. or grand plateau. As the at mosphere Is heavily charged with elec tricity both in summer and winter, dry or electric storms ore of frequent occurrence both on the plateau and In the valleys. Before the rainy season sets In electrical accumulation becomes considerable on the plateau reglou. its most violent manifestations taking place toward the eastern section of the tablelands. An electrical storm In these regions is always a most Imposing spectacle, as the tremendous force of the wind, almost equal to a hurricane, and the heavy electrical accumulation in the clouds produce terrible .atmos pheric explosions and violent detona tions, while the surface of the ground sparkles and crackles. 1 time."

X lady while going downstairs to dinner laid the misfortune to step slightly on the dress of a lady lu front of her. Ttie man on whose arm the former was leaning said aloud, rudely, so that the couple In front might hear: "Always getting in the way, like Ba laam's ass." Upon which the lady whose gown had been trodden on, turning rouud. replied with n sweet smile: "Pardon me! It was the nngel who stood lu the way and the ass which spoke." Tit-Bits. majesty.
