Jtoe Thames nocturne of klne and gold,
Changed to a harmony in gray;
A barge with ocher colored hay
Dropped from the wharf, and chill and
cold
The yellow fog came creeping down
, The bridges, till the house's walls .
"' Were changed to shadows, and St. Paul's
Loomed like a bubble o'er the town.
Then suddenly across the clang
Of waking life, the streets were stirred
With country wagons, and a bird
Flew to the glistening roofs and sang.
But one pale woman, all alone.
The daylight kissing her wan hair,
... . Loitered beneath the gas lamp's flare, '

How the Pyramids Were Built.
A moneyed man, who was looking at
the process of laying an artificial stone
pavement in front of one of his many
properties, startled the friends who were
standing about him by remarking, "I
believe that the Egyptian pyramids were,
built in just that way." Pressed for an
explanation, he said that while he had
never been in Egypt he had read the
works of all Egyptologists, including
Bragscb. and Piazza Smyth, and had
never found in any of them a theory
which would satisfactorily account for
the manner in which the pyramids were
constructed.
"Now," he said, "you must remember
that the pyramids are built of stone
whieh bears no resemblance to anything
found within 500 miles of their location.
It is incredible that the Egyptians of
four or five thousand years ago should
have possessed the mechanical ingenuity
to move these enormous blocks of stone
from the granite quarries of Abyssinia
or Syria to the pyramids. Is it not much
more natural to suppose that the ancient
Egyptians possessed the secret of mak
ing artificial stone, and that the pyra
mids were constructed by layer upon
layer of Nile river mud, hardened by
just such processes as we employ to
make artificial stone?
"It is a much more plausible explana
tion of their construction than the la
borious and unintelligent suppositions
that the stones were carried across the
desert to form the foundation and base
ot the pyramids. I firmly believe that
the Egyptians of the ante-Christian era
understood the manufacture of artificial
atone, and that they built the pyramids
oat of it." Philadelphia Press.
Xka Winnipeg Wolves.
In the winter of 1890 deer were unusu
ally scarce in the forests east of Lake
Winnipeg. A wet, cold summer had de
stroyed an uncommonly large proportion
of fawns. Consequently, wolves were
without their accustomed food supply.
Their distress made them forget their
fear of human beings.
One morning In January news reached
Winnipeg City that a band numbering
100 wolves had slain many Indian hunt-'
an along the east shore. This turned
out to be true.
Several of the men were caught on
foot. One climbed a tree and shot
twenty wolves'. Another clubbed a dozen
to death before they pulled him down.
One hunter mounted a platform erected
on poles for the purpose of keeping skins
above the reach of wild beasts and ver
min. He had hardly begun firing when
the wolves pressed and leaped about the
posts insuch numbers that they threw
down the platform and tore the man to
The same band had visited other
camps. How many Indians in all were
devomred could not be exactly ascer
tained, as more than one hunting party
was said to have been completely wiped
oat. Youth's Companion.
Wfay Girls Are Tall.
Why are there so many tall girls now
adays, and why is the tendency of the new
feneration toward unusual height and
gracious slimness? Women are tall and
becoming tall simply because it is the
fashion, and that statement never needs
aor Is capable of any explanation. Awhile
ago it was the fashion to be petite and
. arch; it is now the fashion to be tall and
gracious, and nothing more can be said
about it. . Of course the reader, who is
usually inclined to find the facetious side
of any grave topic, has already thought
of the application of the self denying
hymn, that man wants little here below,
and wants that little long; but this may
be only a passing sigh of the period.

Weekly.
Oh, These Honest Little Fellows.
Sddle was very fond of raspberry jam.
One evening when the parson dropped
Into tea mamma opened her last jar,
with emphatic instructions to Eddie not
to ask for some more jam after getting
bis share. His papa, not knowing the
circumstances, offered, to replenish his
dish, when Eddie mortified his mother
by saying, "Mamma said I musn't ask
Jar any more, 'cause that is all there is."
A St Louis physician recalls the case
Of a young man who had been dumb for
five years, but who, while out hunting
one day, began, in the excitement of the
chase, to yell at the top of his lungs.
Afterward he was able to speak with
perfect articulation.
When Julius Csasar fell, as he was

of his soldiers, who accepted the occur

Africa, I take possession of thee!"
That compositor was something of a
humorist in his way who set up the
title of 'Maurice Thompson's pretty syl

"Pain in the Orchard;" but the associa
tion' of ideas was serious.

HOW. AN AUNT WAS FOUND.
A Lost Child Whose Knowledge of
Botany Came Into Good Play.
Colonel W. D. Moore tells a story which
would, could it be given in print as Mr.
Moore tells it, produce a great effect.
Ex-Sheriff Cluley was accosted a day or
two since at the corner of Sixth street
and Liberty avenue by a little tot, a girl,
too young to talk plainly, who pulled at
his coat and asked "Do 'oo know Aunt
Tatie?'
Somewhat surprised, Mr. Cluley re
plied that he could , not say unless he
knew "Aunt Tatie's" last name. The
child opined that the wanted party
didn't have any last name; she was "diet
Aunt Tatie.'" The little one then ex
plained that she was lost, and she was in
great distress, her lips quivering so that
at times she could scarcely speak.
Mr. Cluley thought with all his might
for a few moments, when an idea struck
him and he asked the child for a descrip
tion of his aunt. The little maiden re
plied that "Aunt Tatie" was rather tall
and wore nasturtium flowers in her bon
net. Now, Mr. Cluley would hardly stand
a creditable examination in botany. He
knows cabbages from potato vines, and
knows the nasturtium when he sees it
on the table in the shape of a pickle, but
to save his soul he could not tell what
its flower was like. Again he rubbed
bis dome of thought until he rubbed
into it a fresh suggestion and acted upon
it at once. Accosting a lady who was
passing, he asked her if she knew a nas
turtium flower when she saw it. She
was at first disposed to resent the ques
tion as an impertinence, when Mr. Clu
ley hastened to explain, and begged her
to take an observation and ascertain
whether there were any ladies in the
neighborhood with that familiar -flower
in their bonnets.
The lady glanced into several milli
nery and dry goods stores, and finally
called out that she had discovered a
lady with a bonnet bearing the flower
wanted. She pointed her out, and im
mediately the little one cried out joy
fully, 'That's Aunt Tatie."
"Aunt Tatie" was disposed to be cross
with her charge for. wandering away
from the spot she had designated to wait
until her aunt did some shopping, but
Mr. Clnley's feelings were aroused, and
he wouldn't hear the little one scolded.
Instead be proceeded to reprimand the
woman for her thoughtlessness in leav
ing her charge exposed to the danger of
being kidnaped.
' "Aunt Tafcie" had become so interested
in her shopping that she had forgotten
to note the flight of time. Had the little
one not been bright enough to recollect
the name of the flower in the bonnet she
would probably have been crying her
eyes out, a guest at the central station,
and her aunt would have been frantjc
Pittsburg Dispatch.
Childish Faith.
An example of childish faith, of a kind
a dull age wears away, was seen the
other day. A little boy was sitting in
the yard of an old country homestead:
on either siOe of him sat a huge dog, pa
tient and loving. The sun shone down
scorchingly on the trio, and its rays were
uncomfortable. Shading his eyes with
his curved hand the child looked sky
ward and said, "Put in that sun, please."
The sun shone brightly, and the little
fellow repeated softly, "Please put in
that sun, man up in the sky; it hurts my
head."
Just then over the face of the blazing
orb there .sailed a white summer cloud,
then another,, and the yellow blaze
turned suddenly to a hazy, restful gray.
Turning to the dogs, the little boy, put
ting an arm around the neck of each,
said: "Did you see the sun pulled in,
Borneo and Chieftain? When you wants
anything, if you is good, and you asks God
for it, he gives it to you. The sun hurt
my head, and I asked him to put it in,
and don't you see how he did reach out
and put it in for me?" The dogs looked
wise, leaned their heads lovingly toward
the diminutive little theologian, and
whatever might have been their belief,
kept an inscrutable silence. Providence
Journal. '
Why Kyea Are Light and Dark.
An interesting point is the cause of
the different shades of color we see in
the eyes. On a certain membrane in the
interior are numerous cells, called "pig
ment" cells. When these are present in
very great numbers they produce that
deep black color of some eyes, and in
proportion to their numbers - decrease
also the depth of color, till finally a light
blue is reached. In certain eyes these
pigment cells do not exist at all,-being
wanting, indeed, all through the system,
hair ana skin. A person of this descrip
tion is called an albino, and among ani
mals we find a parallel in the case of
the white rabbit. Chambers' Journal.
Inventors Are Born.
Generally speaking, inventors, like
poets, are born, not made. Nearly every
boy can become a good mechanic or
tradesman by diligent study and perse
verance, but not every one can become
a good inventor. If he has a "knack"
for invention, study and hard work will
greatly help him, and he stands a fair
chance some day of succeeding as well
in his chosen line as his brother play
mates do in business or professional life.
Invention is no longer a spasmodic work,
but a legitimate branch of industry,
which has its rewards and remunera
tions for those who follow it faithfully.

There Are No Blind Fish.
There are many animals in the world
which pass all their lives in darkness,
never seeing a ray of light. Every one
has heard of the blind fishes of the Mam
moth cave. The latter is the biggest of
600 great caverns in the United States.
All of them are inhabited by numerous
other sorts of creatures that have no
eyes for vision. Literally speaking there
is no such thing as a blind fish, since the
most sightless of the finny tribe possesses
visual organs in a rudimentary condi
tion, but through -want of use the optic
ganglia and nerves have broken down
and been absorbed. Washington Star.
r STONE FIGHTS IN COREA.
Xa Oriental Pastime That Must Be At
tended with Great Danger.
Kite flying, whloh is universal in this
country, ceases suddenly on the 15th of
the first Corean month, and the next day
stone fights take its place as the chief
publio amusement. In the eastern part
of Seoul, the capital, there are large
open spaces that have cot been built
upon, and here occur the most serious
and interesting fights. One section of
the city is pitted against another, but
any one can take a hand on either side
at pleasure. There are no recognized
leaders, but the mass of fighters readily
follows the lead of any one who shows
himself to be a little more reckless than
the rest.
Two mobs, consisting of fifty, seventy
or a hundred men each, are drawn up
against each other, with an interval of
perhaps fifty yards between them. There
is an incessant shower of stones, and
each man's business is to hit as many
men as he can, and especially to avoid
all the stones directed at him. From
ten to twenty men on each side are
armed with stout clubs and wear thick
wadded helmets. These form the skir
mishing line. They sally out from their
respective sides and, meeting in mid'
career, strike out viciously at each
other's heads, each man holding up his
cloak with his left hand as a shield to
ward off the blows of his adversary.
After the club fight has lasted about
thirty seconds one or the other begins
to give way, which is the signal for a
rush of the others. Almost invariably
the other side breaks and runs, and
sometimes are chased into their houses,
but generally some of the pursuing
party press too closely on the fugitives.
Then the latter suddenly turn and deal
a few staggering blows, which check
the pursuers, and in a few seconds the
tables are turned, and those who a mo
ment ago are flushed with victory are
now in full flight with their enemies.
Thus the battle goes back and forth
across the fields, while the neighboring
embankments are crowded with specta
tors. The effect of the thundering
cheers of the spectators upon the com
batants is marvelous.
They charge upon each other as if in
actual battle, and show what would be
bravery if exerted in 6ome useful cause.
Near the river are numerous villages
numbering from 100 to 500 houses each.
They are situated along the banks at in
tervals of about half a mile. These keep
np a continual series of fights among
themselves during the season, one vil
lage being arrayed against the other.
The defeated party fly across the marshy
field to their own village, followed by
their enemies, who enter after them,
seizing anything on which they can lay
their hands iron files, doors to mark
their victory. Then the whole village
rises against the invaders, and they fly,
glad if they can get back without broken
heads.
The first stone fight of the season was
rather more disastrous than usual. It is
reported that six men were killed; but
this is probably an exaggeration. A
company of soldiers were ordered out to
stop it, which they found some difficulty
in doing with fixed bayonets. Japanese

Before Learning a Language.
Some students begin a language for
the mere love of knowing foreign
tongues; others acquire them either for
professional purposes or with the aim of
gaming access to foreign literatures.
But whatever be the motive it is well to
set out with some knowledge of the
science of language some insight into
the relations of languages to each other
some grasp of the theories of modern
scholars about the origin and develop
ment of speech. To learn language
without knowing anything of the science
of language is like acquiring the art of
putting up electric fixtures without any
knowledge of the principles of electrical
science.
To approach it, on the other hand,
from the standpoint of universal prin
ciples is to make the study of it easier
and progress in any particular tongue
much more rapid. By knowing, for ex
ample, the laws of consonantal inter
change, we may often discover the
meaning of words without being obliged
to refer for them to the dictionary. In
this way every new language learned
makes more easy the acquirement of
other tongues of the same or of allied
stocks. Boston Herald.
Unsafe Money to Carry.
My father was once with his ship at
Rangoon. One . day during a heavy
thunderstorm he was driving in a cab to
his agents, when he saw a "coolie"
(porter) drop down in the street. He got
out of the cab at once and went to the
man, but he was dead. There was a
burned patch in his waistcloth, on the
right side, and some blackened copper
"pice" lay on the ground. The man had
just received them for carrying a load,
and, as the clothes of the poorer natives
of India and Burmah have no pockets,
he had twisted them into his waistcloth,
and this money must have attracted the
lightning. But the most curious part of
it was that the queen's head on one of
the coins was clearly impressed on his
side, and even the words "Queen Vic
toria" were clearly defined. London Tit
Bits. -
. . A Booby Prise.
A very cute "booby" prize given at a
party was a cabbage, tied with a pink
ribbon. When it was untied the top
was lifted up and the inside contained
fine candy. The center of the cabbage
had been hollowed out, then lined with
tissue paper, filled with the sweets, the
top put back and tied on. It created
much merriment. Ellye H. Glover in

Telling Fortunes.
In England a ring, a button and a
coin are often placed in the wedding
cake. She who secures the ring is to be
the next bride; the button, the old maid;
the coin secures a wealthy suitor. A

er," and "will tell- the fair if haply she
will wed.-Cassell's Family Magazine. "
The Babbit and the Kittens.
J. B. Chapman has a cat that found a

happy as any of them. The mother cat
nurses it just the same as her kittens.

Is not a cosmetic in the sense in which that term
is popularly used, but permanently beautifies. It
creates a soft, smoothe, clear, velvety skin, and by
daily use gradually makes the complexion several
shades whiter. It is a constant protection from the
effects of sun and wind and prevents sun burn and
freckles, and black-heads will never come while you
use it. It cleanses the face far better than soap and
water, nourishes and builds up the skin tissues and
thus prevents the formation of wrinkles. It gives
the freshness, clearness and smoothness of skis that
you had when a little jrirl. Every lady, young or old
ought to use it, as it gives a more youthful appear
ance to any lady, and that permanently. It contains
no acid, powder or alkali, and is as harmless aa dew
and is as nourishing to the skin as dew is to the
