These airy crews are n generous crowd. Rnyrt Krnest Poole, writing In Kverybody's Magazine of men who work on skyscrapers. They earn high pay. When working full time they make ?27 a week, and, like their rough brothers out on tho plains, they arc quick to give of their earnings. On Saturday arternoons when they line up nt tho pay window the Sisters of Charity are always there, and quarters and dimes Jingle merrily Into their lit tle tin boxes. Itehlnd this generous giving Is a mi perstltiouH belief that amid risks like these It Is well to propitiate fate all you can, for fate Is n relentless old machine, and when once Its wheels be gin grinding no power on earth can stop them. The "rule of three" Is cen turies old. Vou may hear of It out on the ocean, In the steel mills, In the railroad camps and down In tho mines. And you find It up here on the Jobs In the skies. "Helleve It" said an old foreman. "You bet they bellevo It." "Do you?" I nsked. "Well," he snld, "all t can say Is t lil : It may lie n spell or It mny be because the way of the whole crew Is expecting It. Hut, nnybow, when two accidents come close together you can be sure that the third ain't very far otT." BUYING CHAIRS BY SIGHT. Few Folks Ever Think to Try Them by Sitting In Them. "I went with some folks the other day," the man Bald, "to buy n couple of chairs. Wo went to n furniture store nnd looked over what they had to offer. "There were Just ordinary chairs for a bedroom, so that It wasn't a very momentous purchase. The folks I was with looked at tho cloth on tho chairs ami asked questions about tho wood nnd how tho chairs would wear. Then they bought tho chairs and or dered them sent homo. "What struck mo ns peculiar about the transaction was that never onco did either of (he two persons with whom I wns think of sitting down In the chairs to seo whether or not they were romfortablo. I dropped Into n furniture store not long afterward nnd nuked a salesman about It, and I wasn't surprised to learn that very few persons buying clinlrs ever seem to think nlsiut testing them by sitting In them. "Kxrept In the case of rockers, that Is. Few persons can resist tho temp tation to take a few preliminary rocks In n prospective purchase." Now York Sun. Learned by Experience. "I always mnke It a point," said the man with n wart on Ills nose, a couple of cross eyes and a hair Hp, but otherwise possessing a perfectly good face, "to say polite and complimen tary things to the ladles. It dees mo no harm, and I notice It always glres them a lot of pleasure. My motto Is to scatter sunshine provided It costs no money ns I Journey along," "I used to do that, too," said the man whose set of neglected whiskers were calling plaintively for tho lawn mower, "but I have been broken of the habit. No more sunshine radiat ing from these quarters." "And what cured you?" asked Uio other. "A couple of breach of promise suits." Yes, It Was True. "Is It true that you threw something at Mike that canned thu swelling over his eye?" the squire Inquired of n lit tle woman. "Yls, sur, I did," said the woman, catching her breath, "but I nlver mint to hurt him, an' well ho knows It. We'd Just come homo from me couiln's weddlu', an' 1 was feelln' kinder soft to Mike, an' I up nn' axed him If bo loved me as much as ho did tho day wo was married, an' nn', yer minor, ho was so slow uuswerhi' mo that I up wld the mop an' Hung It at him!

No ono would suppose that It Is pos sible to hold a glowing coal on n piece of linen or cotton without burning the cloth, but that such can be dune Is easy for any oue to prove, and at tho same time tho experiment teaches nu Impor tant natural law, Kvcry child knows that the telephone and telegraph wires ore made of copper because that motal is a good eouductor of heat and elec tricity, which Is only another form of beat. If a poker Is heated In the flro you pick up a cloth to hold the outer end, nlthough It lms not been In the fire, because experience has taught you that the heat Is connected through the metal from the Arc to tbo outer cud. This experiment with the flaming coal Is based upon this principle cud the additional ono that linen and cot ton are poor conductors of heat. Take a globo of copper and draw a piece of cloth tightly over It so that there Is not n wrinkle nt the top. If the linen or cotton Is closely woven the trick Is alt the more certain. Then, holding tho clotli tightly In place, you can safely put a glowing coal ou top of tho cloth, and, while It hums fiercely, the clotli will not even be scorched, The reason Is that tho great conduc tivity of the copper draws tho heat of the coal before It can burn the cloth. Do not make this experiment with n good handkerchief tlrst, for If the cloth Is not tightly drawn It may burn, but tako somo worthless piece of linen or muslin, mid nftcr you arc certain of your experience you can astonish your friends who do not know tho secret.

Puro prusslc acid Is never sold or hnudlcd. The smell of It Is always fatal. It kills not In three minutes or half an hour, but tlio Instant It enters the lungs ns a pi. Tho mixture or dlnarlly sold ns prusslc ncld Is OS parts water to two parts of tho drug. Kvcn In this form It Is very deadly. A 20 per cent mixture of the ncld would kill nearly ns quickly as if pure. Atropine, though It has no harmful odor, Is so deadly that ns much or It ns would adhere to tho end of a moistened forefinger would Instantly cnuso death, Cyanide of potassium has n pleasant smell which Is not Injurious, but n small quantity swallowed kills nt once. Pure ammonia If Inhaled would cause death almost as quickly as prus sic acid. When n carboy of nitric ncld Is bro ken some ono has to suffer. It will burn wood, cat through Iron plates nnd destroy whatever It touches. Such an accident once happened In nn ncld fnc lory. Kvcry one ran nway, leaving tho ncld to nmuso Itself by setting flro to things.

Frledrlch Nietzsche, tho well known German philosopher, declares that there Is something In somo music, most notable In Wagner and Tschnl- kowsky, which acts unfavorably on the brain and nerves of many people.
