GODFREY'S TANKARD. A ieTenteenth Century Hello of ta Plaarue In London. A curious historical relic of London, la the large tankard of solid silver pre sented by Charles II. to Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey for his valuable services during the plague and the Are of Lon don, for which be received the honor of knighthood In ltMI. The tankard, which Is of plain silver, has a hinged cover and weighs nearly thirty-six ounces. Its front is engraved with the royal arsis and the crest of the recipi ent, together with Inscriptions In Latin and engravings of scenes connected wltli the fire, which are still in excel lent preservation. The engraving of the pesthouse men carrying corpses to the dismal plague pit and that of the crowded blocks of houses surmounted by flames are very quaint and curious. Sir Edmund, who was born In 1C21 at Sellinge, In Kent, was a timber mer chant, possessing wharfs at Dowgate city and at Charing Cross. lie prosper ed, became Justice of the peace for Westminster and member of parlia ment for Winchllsea. In hlstoryas no reader of Macaulay and Green will need to be told, his name Is most fa mous In connection with his mysterious murder, which was popularly attribut ed to the zeal with which he had devot ed himself to unraveling the alleged popish plot. His body was found in a ditch near Primrose bill, face down ward and penetrated by his own sword, under circumstances which precluded the Idea of suicide or robbery. The excitement caused by this still mysterious event Is indicated by the fact that when the funeral procession left the city, with great pomp and pageant, for the burial ground of St. Martln'g-ln-tbe-Felds, It was preceded by 70 clergy and followed by upward Of 1,000 persons of distinction. THE JAW AND THE TEETH. What Mar Happea If We Continue lalna; Sort Foods. The teeth are really appendages of the skin, and not of the skeleton, as people generally believe. The Jaw Is formed In accordance with the neces sity for providing a hold for the teeth that Is, If there were no teeth to come, the Jaw would grow differently, ami would not have Its present Bbape. The Jaw Is not an Independent part, as It would like to be; It has to form Itself to accommodate tenants with which, strictly speaking, It hag no ties of kin dred. The use of soft foods decreases the alze of the teeth, and they will ulti mately disappear, unless we make more use of them. As there does not seem to be any likelihood of a change iu our habits, we must expect to lose them in course of time. Then the Jaw will assume probably another shape. Further, the gums might disttpiear, for there cun be no use for them after the disappear ance of the teeth. The loss of the teeth makes the lips fall In, and brings us near to the Puuch form of face! We find It impossible to pronounce sounds, such as t, d, sh, ch. The change of fiice, so to say, will cer tainly lead to a modification of the tongue, and this In turn to the Inability to pronounce other sounds. Atonic Drapepala. The ultimate cause of atonic dys pepsia Is constitutional depression. It may be duo to overwork, and especial ly to prolonged worry. Sometimes the dyspepsia Is the first manifestation of tubercular poisoning. Again, there seems to be nn Inherent failure of the digestive organs. Once established, dyspepsia Is, in turn, the cause of loss of strength, of mental Inertia and vis ceral weakness. Some degree of sim ple anaemia Is almost inevitable. The exciting cause mny be an Illness of any kind, the excessive use of tea, coffee or other beverages, the lack of proper food, somo error In habits of eating. Often It Is not discoverable.

The sufferer danced about and twirled bis shillalah, crying: "Let him out! Let blm out till I have me will av him!" A companion tried to soothe the Irate dancer, with this neat Impromptu: "Never mind, Pat. Sure, he only wanted to scrape acquaintance wld ye." THE SOLAR SYSTEM. tome Facta Which Give an Idea of It Immenaltr. In all the beaveus, with the excep tion of passing meteors or meteorites, not one body occupies a position closer to earth than the moon, which Is some 240,000 miles away very far, of course, side by side with auy earthly distances, but a mere fraction side by side with other astronomical distances. Next to the moon our nearest occasion al neighbor Is Venus, and then Mars. Both Venus and Mars, however, are often farther away from us than the sun, which remains always at some where about the same distance, rough ly at from 90,000.000 to 93,000,000 miles. This dividing space between sun and earth is of great importance In think ing about the stars, and It should be clearly impressed upon the miud. Next to the sun In point of nearness come the more distant planets Jupiter, which Is about five times as far from the sun as our earth Is; Saturn, nearly twice as far as Jupiter; Uranus, near ly twice as far as Saturn, and Neptune, nearly three times as far as Saturn. All these planets belong to our sun, all are members of bis family, all are part of the solar system. The size of the solar system as a whole, consisting thus of the sun and his planets. Includ ing our earth, may be fairly well grasp ed by any one taking the trouble to master two simple facts. They are these, that our earth Is roughly about 62,000,000 miles away from the sun and that Neptune, the outermost plan et of the solar system. Is nearly thirty times as far distant from the son as our earth Is. Chambers' Journal AN ODD BIRD. Tfce Kiwi of Kew Zealand Has torn Remarkable Pecallarltlea. That queer bird, the kiwi, Is a native of New Zealand. Its remarkable pe culiarities are, first, the apparent ab sence of wings, as the plumage so covers the small, rudimentary, stick lllje appendage of a wing that none whatever is apparent The situation of the nostrils at the bill's extremity la a second peculiar feature. While hunting for earthworms It probes the soft ground, maklng.a continual snuff ing sound. Thus the scent is evidently of great help In finding food and the reason for the position of the nostrils qnite apparent. A third peculiarity Is the very dispro portionate size of the egg In compari son to the bird, It being a little less than one-fourth the bird's own weight. One kiwi's egg found weighed four toon and one-half ounces, while the bird weighed Just uuder four pounds (sixty-four ounces) and was about the size of an ordluary hen. The plumage of the kiwi Is a dull browu streaked with light gray, and tho body resembles a miniature hay shock, rather badly backed off nt the rear part; ns nature has not provided the kiwi with such decoration as a tall. The absence of wings Is compensated for by Its swiftness of foot, and the large, clumsy looking legs, which are sometimes used as weapons, are placed far back on the oddly shaped body. St. Nicholas That Wu All. A young girl who Is always trying some new. thing was present once when the doctor set a neighbor's bro ken nrui. She was sure that she knew exactly how It was done and rather anxious to put her new knowledge Into practice. Some time later a ben out In the chicken yard broke Its leg. The girl directly announced that she meant to set It "and make It as good as new." Accordingly It was put Into a plaster cast and left for the proper length of time to knit. When the day came to take off the cast the girl ran p.ut. to the henhouse. In great eagerness Ladles' Hats at HALF PRICE.

Artificial Blrda. Ui yerj earlv times men began to experiment wnh a view to making artificial birds and animals that would Imitate the motions of living creatures, and If we ore to believe the records, some of the arfjsts Jn that line were remarkably successful. Arch.vtns of Tarentum, who lived In" the Year looTj. C., constructed an artificial pigeon that could fly, but which was not able to resume Its flight after once alighting. John Muller, a German of great me chanical skill, constructed an artificial eagle, which on the entry of Emperor Maximilian Into Nuremberg flew out to meet him. and, returning, alighted on the city gate to await his approach. A Paraon'a Swrarlna;. "Farson" Blodgett, a former local preacher residing In Linden, had In front of bis bouse a watering trough freely patronized by people riding by. One evening a man hurriedly drove up to water bis horse, and the wheel of his wagon struck the trough vio lently. The "parson" came out hur riedly and cried: "Hog rabbited to hemp seed tobacco! Can't you drive straight?" "Go In and shut the door." replied the driver, "and next time you want to swear, parson, do It like other men." Boston Herald. A Fnnny Slameae Cnatom.
