THE RULE OF THREE.
A Superstition of the Men Who Build
the Skyscrapers.
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

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

A LIUP MIL TRICK. , MWMMMMtMWWT?wWw:
Teaches Natural Law, Yet Has All the
Appearance of Magic.
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.

DEADLY POISONS.
One Whiff of Pure Prusslo Acid Is
Sufficient to Kill.
Tho discoverer of prusslc ncld was
Instantly killed by Inhaling ono whiff
of his own handiwork.
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

tho ncld to nmuso Itself by setting

The Suicide Symphony,
Tho Idea that music may lie harm

will romo as a revelation to many.
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.
Tschalkowsky's baloful Influence can
not be denied. He destroyed himself
after composing his famous "Sixth
Symphony," nnd, ns several have died
by their own hand nfter playing It, It
has come to bo known as tbo "suicide
