A Boy Who Had Uever Seen a Girl and
What Happened.
A well known Washington mer
chant tells the following story on
himself: He was born clear up in
the mountains near the Tennessee
line. His mother died when he was
two months old, and his father and
grandmotber:raiecd" him by hand in
their lonely cabin, on a mountain
clearing, mile3 from the nearest
neighbor. He' was clad in a single
flowing garnlent on the Mother Hub
bard style, made of homespun tow
cloth which was lengthened as years
added length to his limbs.
He never saw a girl till he was
sixteen. That year a terrible drought
struck in and his father "had to go
ten mile3 down the "cove" to get his
corn ground. So he yoked up the
steers and threw several bags of corn
in the bottom of the cart. The boj
in his peculiar garment, climbed in
and sat on the bags. He was goiug
to a new and far off country, ana
every sight was a wonder. Arriving
at the mill he watched with curious
interest the corn making its way from
the hopper into the heart of the stone
and then spurt out into warm white
iets into the trough. He went out
side and saw the water pour over and
turn the huge overshot wheel and
peered with a sensation of fear iuto
the dark, mossy cavern into which the
wheel was forever retreating.
On riainer at a little distance he
spied a log cabin, and shortly wan
dered over through the brush in its
direction. A rail fence stopped his
progress n couple of rods from the
doorway, aud he leaned over and
looked. There, sitting outside the
door on a bench, were two girls. Oue
wa3 spinning wool aud the other
knitting. They were the most beau
tiful things he had ever seen, and he
nearly died right there. They saw
him and burst out laughing at his re
markable appearance. He didn't
know what to do, but thought it was
probably the proper thing to stare
at them and laugh back, which he
did with interest. This mutual enter
tainment kept "up for some ten min
utes, when one of the girls laughed
so hard Bhe rolled off the bench. He
thought that was queer, but just then
he felt something cold on his legs.
He turned around. As he did so
both girls shrieked with laughterand
ran iuto the house. He found that
the cold thing on his legs was the
muzzle of ainll calf that was ohew
ing away vigorously on what was
left of the rear of his dress, which
had been shockingly mutilated by
the animal during the few minutes
he was staring at the girls.
He has seen more girls since aud
bears their smilea with greater equan
imity. He is also one of the best
dressed men in Washington, but that
experience with the bull calf and the
girls will never be effaced from his
memory. .

A Correct Answer.
A scientific paper recently offered
a reward for the moat correct answers
to certain scientific oroblem3. Amoncr
others was the old scientific "conun
drum, "which weighs the most, a
pound of feathers or a' pound of
lead? Of course n pound i3 n pound,
no matter of what substance, and
when the simple or thoughtless per
son answers that a pound of lead is
the heaviest, everybody laughs. Mr.
Charles Plitt, in answering this ques
tion, claims that the pound of lead
would weigh the heaviest because the
feathers would be buoyed up by a
weight equal to the amount of air
which they displace just as a cork
is buoyed up in the water. In fu
ture, therefore, we mu3t refrain from
laughing at the fool's auswer, as
practically it is correct. Of course,
if weighed in a vacnnm a ponnd of
any two substances would weigh
alike.
The people of Cairo are irritated
over the opposition of France to En
gland's scheme for the conversion of
the Egyptian debt, because England
would not consent to evacuate Egypt.
The abandonment of the scheme will
prevent a continuance of the works
to improve irrigation by the waters of
the Nile, and will also hinder a de
crease in the rates of taxation.
A curious animal peculiar to Tas
mania is the Tasmauia devil. It is
eqnnl in size to the short legged ter

thickness to that of a pig, and is cov

is of the bear species, and possesses a
power of jaw scarcely inferior to that
of the bull dog.

A Fact worth Knoulut?.
No mere cathartic can exert any action
upon the Liver, yet many persons of
bilious habit arc continually dosing
themselves to produce actions which
only weaken the bowels and aggravate
the evil. When tho Liver requires
stimulating the precise agent to give
healthful and prolonged impetus is Sim
mons Liver Kegulator. It is a safe me
dicine to take, being purely vegetable.
