Here It was that he was found ono afternoon by a wandering maniac, who crept up stairs and saw the feeble old man doz Inc. "Leap, Tom, leap!" be cried, and at the same time tried to throw htiu over the battlements.

If we are to accept the con clusions of Dr. Turner of the Univer sity observatory of Oxford nnd Profes sor II. 0. Pluiiimer, royal astronomer of Ireland. Itecent astronomical work sujjKosts that the sun and its planets form a single unit In a vast system, tin.' stars in which, though separated by enormous distances, have n com mon center of gravity, and in response to gravitation all move In unison like n stupendous machine. The paths of these stars, Instead of being nearly circular, like those of the planets around the sun, are much like the oscil lations of a pendulum. The calcula tions show that on this elongated course our sun must travel -100,000,000 years before completing a revolution and that it passed near the. center less than a million, perhaps not more than :i00,00O, years ago and Is now on the outward stretch. Barney Barnato's Comedy. In the Journal South Africa the late Sutton Vane, the dramatist, once told this story of Harney Itarnato: "He was the best amateur melodramatic actor I ever met A little rough; so Is a dia mond, but the lire is there. lie played Claude Prollo In Victor Hugo's 'Es meralda' splendidly, 1 playing Quasi modo, the hunchback, with him. In the great scene on the parapets the hunchback tries to throw the monk (I''rollo) Into the street. Mr. Ilarnato resisted vigorously. He seized me by my hump, which came off In his hand. It was a sponge bag stuffed with va rious articles. He shook his fist at me and then, with a quiet smile, threw the hump from the cathedral roof. Look, lug over, he exclaimed: 'Oood heav ens! I have killed a policeman!' Tre meudous round of applause from the audience." Armies of Animals. Some Idea of the vast numbers of animals that Africa used to support can bo gained from a passage In V. Scully's reminiscences. It was Mr, Scully's good fortune In 1S02 to wit ness the last great trek of springboks from east to west of the lltishmanland desert n trek on a scale such as no man will ever see again. Fencing, the Increase of population and the dlstrlb ution of arms have almost extermlnat ed the once Innumerable host. He says, "I have stood on an eminence some twenty feet high, far out on the plains, and seen the absolutely level surface as far as the eye could reach covered with resting springboks, while from over the eastern horizon the ris ing columns of dust told of fresh hosts advancing." Shoes and Nerves. Travelers say that the reason why nervous people don't exist in China Is because it Is there the custom to wear soft shoes. There Is no doubt that hard soled, creaking footgear Is responsible for much nervous wear and tear as well as much physical fatigue in west ern lands. Tired feet and tired nerves will Hi id solace In a warm foot bath with a handful of sea salt In it. Move the feet about or keep them still as best pleases you as long as the water is pleasantly warm; then dry them with a rough towel and put on a fresh pair of stockings. Dundee Advertiser.

An Attack That Wholly Demoralized the Partisan Rangers. Colonel John, S. Moslij-, commander of the Partisan rangers, who gave such dashing service in the southern cause, told of an amusing Incident la which he figured. In the summer of 1SU when General Phil Sheridan was in the valley of the Shenandoah he found himself much harassed by Mosby, who was continu ally cutting otr his supply trains. An army cannot light on an empty stom ach, and Mosby knew It. One bright morning Mosby heard that a long sup ply train was winding its wity down the valley. By noon the rangers in. their gray uniforms were gathered at the forks of the vnlley pike, watching for the head of the wagon train to ap pear. Presently a cloud of dust was seen rising far up the road, and as the wind blow it aside the Confederates caught sight of a line of men in blue escorting n caravan of lumbering wagons drawn by mules Instantly .Mosby gave the order to run ajlttle howitzer up on the side of a hill and unlimhcr It. As soon ns tlie gun had opened lire the rest of the men were to make a cavalry charge and throw the train Into confusion. The rangers jerked the gun into w sltlon nnd began to swab It out. Sud denly the man with the swnb gave a shrill yell, seized the seat or his panta loons and lied down the hill and out Into the road. Almost in the same moment the other man at the gun abandoned It. He seemed to be light ing at the air as he disappeared over a stone wall. The sutler's wagons were creeping nearer, and Mosby did not know what to think of such extraordinary conduct. He ordered four more men to the gun, but hardly had they reached it when they, too, yelled, began to beat the air madly with their hats and took to tlight. Spurring his horse over the stone wall, Mosby rode toward the gun, but his stay was short. The howitzer stood lust over a hornets' nest, and those busy Insects were resenting the intru sion. They had repelled the invaders on foot, and now they swarmed on Mosby's horse till the maddened aid mnl tore off down the pike on n run. Then they turned their attention to the rest of the troop. Their attack was so vicious that the rangers gave up any lden of standing by the gun. They scattered far and wide, and It was an hour before they returned. When they did the wagon train had safely vanished In the dis tance. So the hornets saved the day for Sheridan. Youth's Companion. Where Science Fails. Science has wrought tunny achieve ments, but It has not cleared up a sin gle elemental mystery, and It has cre ated a thousand lesser mysteries that never were Imagined until science came. Science has demonstrated that this oak of a world used to be an acorn, but how that acorn came into existence or whence It obtained thu latent elements that now have become an oak science has not suggested. Sci ence has made It possible for a manu facturer to cut down three trees In his forest at :.n.r In the morning, to have them made Into paper at !::tl and to have them selling on the street as newspapers at 10:25, but whether the manufacturer himself Is a brain that has a mind or Is a mind that has a brain science cannot even guess.

To remove them stretch the stained part over a basin nearly full of boiling water, so that the steam may pene trate the fabric, and apply with a' feather a teaspoonful of salt dissolved In a dessertspoonful of lemon juice, When the marks disappear dip the ma terial well Into the hot water, after ward rinsing very thoroughly In cold water. Proved It Was Simple. In a registration booth In San Fran clsco an old colored woman had Just finished registering for the llrst time. "Am you shore," she asked tho clerk, "dat I's done all I has to do?" "Quito sure." replied the clerk; "you see, It's very simple." "Ps ought to knowed It," said the old woman. "If those fool men folks lieon doln' It all deso years 1 might 'n' knowed it was a powerful simple proc ess." Life. He Plagued Him. Tho catcher was having an nrgnuieut with tho umpire.
