Cape of Good Hope, she was so heavily
"ballasted"' with vre silver that she

THE MOONSTROKE.
A Sailor' Experience After a Mht
Sap on Deck In the Tropic.
"People laugh at mooustrokes." said
a sailor. "They call them shellbacks'
superstition. 1 ouce had a uioonstroke,
though, and I tell you it was uo laugh
ing matter.
"In a full moou one night iu the trop
ics 1 fell asleep on dock. The moon
shone directly ou me. I lay in a white
pool of moonlight. So three hours
went by.
"Then, when they woke me, I felt
like a man in a dream. My mouth
bung open, as It does when I sleep,
and I couldn't close It. and my head
lay over on the side, and I couldn't
atraighten it up.
"Nor could I understand what people
aid to me, nor could 1 obey orders.
Voices I'd bear far away, but they
seemed meaningless, unpleasant, I
iwas very drowsy. All 1 wanted was
sleep.
"They worked on me for two days,
rubbing me down with cold water and
dosing me with castor oil, before they
brought me round. And always after
that I have been careful never to sleep
.where the iuoons rays could get at me.
My uioonstroke happened ellit years
ago, but still at every full moon I am
stupid and drowsy, my head droops a
little to one side, and my mouth tends
to ban;; open.
"Therels many a sailor has been
moonstruck, but this accident never
befalls landsmen. I.andiin-ii. you see.
Lever sleep out of doors." New York
Herald.
- The DnckiiiK Stool In KnuUnil.
The lastest recorded use of the duck
lug stool in England (the designations
euckiujr and ducking were, of course,
synonymous iu the days of yueoii Eliza
beth i was iu IVl'.i. It was at Leomin
ster, when a woman named Jenny
I'ipes, alias Jane t'orran. was paraded
through the town on the ducking stool
and ducked in the water near Kenwa
ter bridge by order of the magistrates.
In 117 another woman, called ,arah
Leake, was wheeled round the place in
the same chair, but not duck"d. as.
fortunately for her. the water was too
low. The instrument of punishment In
question has not been used since tuen.
Londou Notes and Queries.
India Ilublitr Tree Fruit.
The fruit of the iudia rubber tree is
somewhat similar to that of the Itiei
iius communis, the castor oil plant,
though somewhat larger. The seeds
have a not disagreeable taste and yield
a purplish oil. It is a fairly g'xxl sub
stitute for linseed oil, though it dries
less rapidly. Mixed with copal blue
and turpentine, it makes a good var
nish. The oil may be also used In the
manufacture of soaps and lithographic
inks. The seeds are somewhat like
tiny chestnuts, although darker in col
or. The Indian girls are fond of wear
ing bracelets and necklets made of
them.
Lonfern an Trouble Maker.
I)id you ever consider how much
trouble and turmoil in the world is
stirred up by loafers? Do It and you
will be surprised. Investigate careful
ly and you will find that nine of the
ten fusses and quarrels that you know
of in your town or neighborhood were
started by loafers who had no busi
ness of their own to attend to and o
got busy with other people's affairs.
