MORAL LAW.
The moral Uw bet at the center
of nature and radiate to the cir
cumference. It it the pith and
marrow of every substance, every
relation and every proem. All
thing with which we deal preach
to us. What is a farm but a mute
gospel The sailor, the shepherd,
the miner, the merchant, in their
several resorts have each an experi
ence precisely parallel. Emerson.

Mustard Plaster Cur.
"Mustard as a promoter of morals
was a new role," aaid the woman.
"Yesterday I heard my Bohemian
neighbor say to ber eleven-year-old
daughter:
" 'If you do that again I'll put a
mustard plaster on you.'
The child didn't do It again. When
I asked why the mother told me that
In her country disobedient children are
punished by applying a mustard plas
ter. It is more efficacious than whip
ping, scolding or moral suasion. The
plaster Isn't left on long enough to
blister badly, but even without a blis

measure that all little Bohemians try
to avoid, even at the expense of good
behavior." New York Press.
The Druggist Lost In Ibasn.

Smoking Before Tobacco.
It seems probable that tbere were
smokers in England long before the
introduction of tobacco, according to
the London Graphic. Pipes have been
discovered Imbedded In the mortar of
churches built before Europe'a first
acquaintance with tobacco, and it
seems only reasonable to suppose that
the people of that day smoked herbs
of some sort, either medicinally or for
pleasure. Coltsfoot was Inhaled for
asthma, though whether a pipe was
sed In the process remains a matter
for conjecture.

THE CHEERFUL GIVER.
There is one striking peculiarity
that attaches to the cheerful giver,
and that peculiarity is that he always
has something to give. The cheer
fulness seems to increase the capi
tal. As there are plants that bloom
most profusely when the blossoms
are plucked daily, so the free be
stowal of gifts seems continually to
increase the store of the giver.
West Point Cray.
The origin of tbe gray uniforms
worn by the cadets at West Point
dates back lo the war of 1812-14. wben
the commissary general of tbe army
could not procure tbe blue cloth re
quired for General WluBeld Scott's
brigade, and so they were clad In gray.
So distinguished was tbe conduct of
that brigade at I.undy's I fine and Chip

pliment to General Scott and bis bri

"Impossible!" a clear voice called
back. "There's a fat man wedged In

Palmistry.
Talmlstry In Its modern acceptation
Is divided Into two branches rhlrog
nomy and chiromancy C'hlrognomy
defines the outward shape of the hand
and Df Its members, the thumb and
finger. Cblromanry Is also derived
from the Greek and signifies divina
tion hy the hand-that is. by the lines,
mounts and other marks on l he palms
of the hand.
A Quitn Who Was a King.
Only once In the history of flic world
has a queen been ollli lally known as
a king. This wns In Hungary when
tbe Hungarians gave the name of king
to their (Jueen Mary In order to avoid
tbe Infamy which the laws of that
country cast upon tbosj who are gov
erned by women. Khe bore the title
of King Mary till her marriage with
Slglsmund. After that she took the
title of queen.

Ths Moat ot Australia.
Australia is tbe hottest country on
record. I have ridden for miles astride
the equator, but I bave never found
beat to compare wltb this. Out in tbe
country in the dry times there appears
to be little more than a sheet of
brown paper between you and tbe low
er regions, and the people facetiously
say that they have to feed their hens
on cracked Ice to keep tbem from lay
ing boiled eggs.-Sydney Telegraph.
An Aristocratio Grain.
Could plants lay claim to aristocrat
ic position, us representing ao old fam
ily, rice might safely claim to be of the
most ancient pedigree. It Is tbe ear
liest cereal known. Originally a native
of India, It has crossed tbe ocean and
made a home for Itself where beat
and moist soil could be found. It
grows In all warm portions of tbe
globe and furnishes tbe principal food
of nearly one-third of tbe human race.
Hard on ths Minister's Wifo.
A Scottish minister bad returned
home from a long holiday trip on
which be bad been accompanied by his
wife. At a prayer meeting shortly aft
erward an elder offered up thanks for
tbe minister's safe return, but unfor
tunately put his foot in It. . "O Lord,"
be said, "we thank thee for bringing
our pastor safe borne, and his dear
wife. too. O Lord, for thou preservest
man and beast!"
Circumstantial Evidsnco.
Mark Twain on circumstantial evi
dence: "Even the clearest and most
perfect clrcuinstautiul evidence is like
ly to be at fault, utter u 11. aud there
fore ought to bu received with great
caution. Take tbe case of any pencil
sharpened by any woman. If you
have witnesses you will find she did it
wltb a knife, but if you take simply
the aspect of the pencil you will say
she did it Willi ber teeth."
Emphaaizing a Fact.
There are peculiarities. Idiosyncra
sies of expression, which emphasize
and accentuate facts. It Is not enough
to say "be Is deaf." We Invariably
add "as a post." It would appear suf
ficient to say "be Is blind," but we
prefer in nearly all cases to admit of
no contradiction by announcing that
be is "stone blind." To be "dead"
should suffice. "Dead as a doornail"
clinches tbe fact.
