CnrseU Words of the Yezidees.
The YeziUees. a peculiar Turkish Beet,
are perhaps the only people in the world
which consider certain letters, words
and phrases as being cursed, and the
person who pronounces them a worthy
subject for immediate destruction. . They
attach no value to human life, and to
these ordinary dangers are added those
arising from the embarrassing etiquette
of conversational intercourse with them,"
for if any one inadverently speaks the
word "devil," "satan," or anything with
the same meaning, he commits a mortal
offense, and to cut off his bead is a God
pleasing act, a sacred duty of the Yezi
dee, the fulfillment of which will insure
him a place in paradise.
In a like manner several letters' are
wholly banished from their language,
chiefly those which contain the sound of
"shun.'" v The Arabian word nallet,
"Thou art damned," is also expunged
because it is believed by the Yezidees to
have been the word uttered by God
when the fallen angels were thrown into
hell. These and similar words and
phrases are set aside and combinations
which do not belong to any language
nsed instead. St. Louis Republic.
Auendlug Her Prayer.
1 am prompted to send von the follow
ing anecdote about a half-past-2 midget
who is quartered in our domicile. She
is accustomed at bedtime, after having
had a hilarious frolic en dishabille, to re
peat the words:
Jeans, gentle shepherd, hear me,
. . Gnard thy little lamb tonight;
Tlironfrh the darkness be tbou near me.
Watch my Bleep till morning light.
These lines she has faithfully repeated,
word for word, with the remarkable and
inimitable pronunciation common to
all children at her age, but last night
she astonished us by saying
Guard thy little lamb to-night.
Through the that not darkness, that
gaslight!
And surely enough, & new lamp post
had been erected during the day on our
corner, and so the "little lamb" no long
er needed protection through the dark
ness, but through the gaslight. She
thought, 1 suppose, that she must be lit
eral or die. Cor. Boston Transcript. . .

Work of the lie venue Cutter Service!
Of the 23,000 or 30.000 vessels that are
every year boarded and thoroughly ex-.
amined by officers of - the revenue cutter
service, many are found to have side
lights, urichor lights or : fog signals of
an efficiency far btilow what is deemed
safe by the government. . These faults
are corrected, and thus one of the great
est dangers of the sea. collision, is vnitir
gated )to a great degree. The benefits of
the increased safety thus effected are
shared, not onjy by the seafaring man.
but also by that immense portion of the
traveling public that selects our coast
wise steamers as a means of conveyance'
from place to place. The constant pa
trolling of the coast enables the cutters
promptly to discover and report to the
proper authorities the absence or imper
fection of buoys, spindles, lightships and
other aids to navigation. Scribner's., ;
Platinum. '
The demand for platinum for use in
science has raised its .value' to three
quarters that of gold. Three years ago
it was worth eighty dollars a pound. ' . It
now costs $160. or eleven times more
than silver,. It is. found in small quan
tities . in Peru, Colombia, .Brazil, the
Ural mountains. California, Oregon 'and
Borneo. The yearly output has never
been more than four tons and', is now

, Number of PostuI Corda Used.
Our postal cards ' were first issued in
May, 1873, and during the first two
months of their use there were 31,000,000
of them issued. During the following
year 90,000,000 were used, and in 1878
tlie number had risen above 200,000,000.
During the year 1891 we used 386,000,000.

of age and have been troubled with constipation
for 25 years. I was recently induced to try Joy's
Vegetable Sarsaparilla. : I recognized in it at
once an herb that the Mexicans used to givo us
in the early 50"s for bowel troubles. (I came to
California In 1839,) and I knew it would help me
and it has. For the first time In years I can sleep
well and my system is regular and in splendid
condition. Theold Mexican herbs in this remedy
are a certain cure in constipation and bowel
troubles. " Ask for t .;
