Didn’t Wait For tho “Thank You."
John Bull, the scene painter, tells a
story of an occasion when he delivered
some scenery for au entertainment in
a lunatic asylum. He was watching
bls men getting the stuff in when It
began to rain. A big man with a
pleasant smile appeared and offered to
help. They got on famously. Mr. Bull
and his volunteer were just setting
down the last load when an attendant
arrived, caught the big man a tre­
mendous blow on the side of the head
and sent him sprawling on his back.
Mr. Bull Was speechless with lndigna
tlou at thia attack, but the victim got
up. smiling more than ever, and walk­
ed away. “You can thank your stars
I've been watching you," the attend­
ant explained. “I suppose when you
had the last lot in you'd have said.
‘Thank you; I'm much obliged.' Well,
that's this fellow’s trouble, sir. The
moment you say ‘Thank you’ to 'Im
’e'll wring your neck.”—London Stand­
ard.
Placing th* Goat.
An anecdote of I*resident Hayes is
told by an Englishman who formed
one of a party of bis compatriots while
the president and bls family were at
.Clark's ranch, near Yosemite, The two
parties were assembled in the rude
kitchen awaiting the coming meal. A
certain stiffness prevailed at first At
last a master of the ceremonies and
introducer appeared in the shape of a
small and elegant quadruped, evident­
ly a family pet, which trotted into the
kitchen to lie caressed. A lady of the
English party gently stroked its stem,
the president its stern. Presently they
met. about the center of the animal,
and the interchange of a few remarks
became inevitable. “This is a very
pretty goat," from the English lady.
“Sly end is antelope, madam,” from
the president. It need scarcely be said
that both ends were antelope, but the
reply was very neat.
The Brava Butterfly.
Here is an unorthodox story of King
Solomon: One day a butterfly sat on
the king's temple and boasted to his
wife. “If I chose I could lift my wing
and shiver this building to the ground,"
be swaggered. Solomon, overhearing,
sent for the boaster. "How dare you ?”
be thundered. The butterfly groveled.
“I did it to impress my wife,” he
pleaded. The great monarch was in­
stantly appeased and let him go.
"What did Solomon say to you?” gasp­
ed a quivering wife five minuteB later.
"Ob. be liegged me not to do it,” said
the butterfly airily. And Solomon,
again overbearing, smiled.
Red Flannel.
Bed flannel as a cure for rheuma­
tism has many adherents. No doubt
the flannel keeps warm and protects
the stiff Joint nnd sore muscles, but as
far as the color goes any other in the
spectrum would bo fully as effective.
Like many of our ls>y and girl super­
stitions, the notion has become so
deeply grounded as to have an un­
doubtedly favorable mental effect. Per­

Ths Magnet.
Magnet is derived from the name of
the city of Magnesia, in Asia Minor,
where the properties of the lodestone
are said to have been discovered. It
has, however, been asserted that the
name comes from Masses. the name of
a shepherd who discovered magnetic
power by being held on Mount Ida,
in Greece, by Its attraction for the
nails tn bls shoes.
Modernized Comparison.

Seville’s Tower of Giralda.
From its great antiquity alone it
from nothing else it is plain that the
Giralda at Seville could not have been
studied from the tower of the Madison
Square Garden iu New York, which
the American will recall w hen be sees
it. If the case must be reversed and
we must allow that the Madison
Square tower was studied from the
Giralda. we must still recognize that
it is no servile copy, but in its frank
imitation has a grace and beauty
which achieve origiuality. Still, the
Giralda is always the Giralda. and,
though there had been no Saint Gau-
dens to tip its summit with such a fly­
ing footed nymph as poises on our
tower, the figure of Faith which
crowns it is at least a good weather
vaue and from its office of turning gives
the mighty bell tower its name. Long
centuries before the tower was a bel-
fry it served the mosque, whlcb the
cathedral now replaces, as a minaret
for the muezzin to call the faithful to
prayer, but it was then only two-thirds
as high.—Harper's Magazine.
Cultured Hindus.
In Bengal there are about 70,000.-
000 of people, and they boast of
perhaps the best culture in India at
the present time. The language as a
written langunge is only fifty years
old. Though for over a thousand
years it has been a dialect, there is in
Indian history unfortuuately no trace
of Bengali having been an important
literary tongue. The language orig­
inates from Sanskrit, the mother
tongue from which every other Indian
langunge has borrowed its alphabet,
grammar and vocabulary; but, unlike
the others, Bengali never shrinks
from gathering new materials. There
are numerous Persian. French, Ara­
bic and English words Incorporated In
it, and the wonder of it is that, in­
stead of having lieen degraded into
some vulgar form like pidgin English,
Bengali has become the most literary,
scientific and perhaps the most philo­
sophic of modern Indian languages.
Shrewd Sexton.
Among the tourists who travel
through France a considerable number
visit the cathedral at Rhelms. a mag-
nlflcent example of gothic architecture.
In the tower there is an enormous
clock, and it is the sexton’s business
to wind It every day, a very tiring Job,
as the weights are naturally extremely
heavy.
The sexton, however, is a very
shrewd fellow. Whenever be shows
the trippers this wonderful piece of
mechanism he remarks, “Ladles and
gentlemen, if you do not believe me
regarding the heaviness of the clock
weights try for yourselves.”
Each of the trippers Immediately
give a turn or two to tho wheel, and
as there are some 200 visitors a day
the trippers unconsciously nnd engerly
wind the clock for him and in addition
give him an extra tip for being allow­
ed to do his work.—London Onlooker.
Emily Bronte’s Looks.
A discussion as to the personal ap­
pearance of Emily Bronte reveals the
remurkable fact that no one knows
anything about it since there is no au­
thentic portrait In existence. When
Charlotte Bronte first saw George
Henry Lewes she said that he was
wonderfully like her sister Emily, but
this is unfortunate for Emily since
Lewes was very much like a baboon.
Possibly the comparison was due to a
sisterly candor that so seldom errs on
the side of mercy. Thanks to photog­
raphy. the historian of the future will
not be in doubt as to the appearance
of celebrities of the present generation,
but he is likely to have his own opin­
ion as to those worth knowing about.—

used in a recently discovered four­

natural inference is that even then It

Usnsral Daumesnil’« Leg.
General Daumesnil's wooden and iron
leg is in the Paris military museum.
The warrior is question lost one of
bls legs at the battle of Wagram, and
when he returned to Paris it was re­
placed by a mechanical contrivance of
timlier with iron springs. Although
crippled, the old soldier remained in
active service and was iu command of
the Vlnceuues fort iu 1814 when the
allies were in Paris. It was to the
troops of the antl-Napoleon coalition
that General Daumesnil said when
called iqxm to give up bis fort, “Let
me have my leg and then you can take
Vincennes.” The old general died in
1832. deprived of his mechanical limb.
It bad been taken off while he was ill
in order to be repaired by a smith
named Biou, living in Vincennes. Brou
kept the article and handed it dowu
to his family, from whom it subse­
quently passed into the ownership of
the municipality of Vinceanes. The
councilors of the artillery borough
handed it over to the war department,
and it is among the most honored rel­
ics of French armies of the past.
Subdued the Peer.
In her reminiscences Lady Dorothy
Nevill Baid that in her younger days
parents were very particular about the
matrimonial alliances made in their
families, and she told nn amusing sto­
ry of one old peer who was greatly
surprised to be told by bis sister that
she had developed a great affection for
a well known scientist of humble
birth.
The peer sent for ldqi and said
brusquely, “Now. sir, I should like to
know something about your family.”
"I think it will be sufficient,” replied
the scientist, who was of Semitic ex­
traction, "to say that I descended from
th* illustrious blood of Abraham, Isaac
a. i Jacob.”
The peer was taken aback. “Oh,”
lie said, "of course, my family has
nothing to compare with that, There
fore, if my sister really likes you,
you’d better take her."
And the scientist did.
Assistance Necessary.
The first field glasses taken to the
New Hebrides sorely puzzled the sim­
ple minded natives. A traveler tells
how one of the mission clergy was
walkiug along the shore, when a na­
tive nt his side pointed out a figure in
the far distance. "There goes one of
my enemies,” said he. The white man,
drawing out Ids field glasses and focus­
ing them, banded them to his compan­
ion, who, gazing through them In
amazement, beheld his foe apparently
close at hand. Dropping the glasses,
be seized bis arrows and looked again.
The enemy was ns far away as at first.
Once more he snatched the magic
glasses, once more exchanged them for
his arrow’s aud once more wan baf­
fled. A bright thought suddenly oc­
curred to him. “You hold the glasses
to my eyes,” said he to the missionary,
“and I can shoot him!"
A French Comedy,
When John Iludyerd waa building his
famous wooden Eddystone lighthouse
he was much harassed by the depre-
datlons of French privateers. Thus
on one memorable day all his men
were surprised while nt work and
borne off In triumph to France an
prisoners of war, the captors think
ing they had done something very
smart. But Louis XIV. did not ap­
prove at all nnd promptly ordered the
men's release. "Their work,” be said,
"is for the benefit of nil nations. I
am nt war with England, not with
humanity." — "Lightships and Light

Prsssncs of Mind.
Colonel Cody ("Buffalo Bill”) once
told the following story of one of his
comrades of the plains known as Wild
Bill:
"A man who nursed a grudge against
Wild Bill swore to kill him. He stood
conceuled iu a doorway, stepped out
and confronted Bill as the latter pass­
ed and leveled a pistol at bis bead.
" 'I’ve got you now, Wild Bill,’ be
said, ‘and I'm going to kill you, but
I'll give you one miuute to pray!*
“'Well,' said Bill with an easy
smile, 'it does look like the Jig's up!’
“Suddenly Bill peered over the man's
shoulder and waved a deprecatory
hand.
•“Don't hit him, Andy!' he said.
"The man wheeled to protect him­
self from the supposed enemy in his
rear. He gazed into empty space.
There was no Andy nor any one else
behind him, and before be could turn
rouud again Wild Bill had killed him.”
The Wild Boar.
Tho wild boar is a most courageous
animal. The element of luck counts
for a great deal in pig sticking, as in
most other forms of sport, and it often
happens that the foremost sportsman
who by dint of hard riding or thanks
to the fastest horse has come up with
the quarry is deprived of the coveted
honor of “first spear” by a sudden
“Jink” or turn of the pig. The boar,
in spite of his clumsy appearance, is
not only possessed of a great turn of
speed, but Is extraordinarily active. He
will turn and twist like a bare, puttiug
every obstacle in the shape of bushes,
rocks, water, etc,, between himself
•nd his pursuers, but all the time mak­
ing for the nearest patch of Jungle rnd
safety. The pace after a pig is faster
than the best of runs with bounds, but
is sooner over.
