The velocipede made its appearance
In Washington 50 yeurs ago, much hav­
ing been beard of this new device,
which had developed a veritable fever
in France. In an article tn the Wash­
ington Star of November 20, 1868, it
was noted thut the use of this vehicle
had been "brought to such perfection
that it is claimed 20 miles an hour
has been made with it.”
The Star
said:
“Lately the velocipede has been In­
troduced in this country, and our
young Americans, who at one time
had the boxing mania, followed by the
baseball mania, are now going strong
on the velocipede, and It will doubt­
less have its run all over the country.
Graham, the carriage dealer on D
street between 8th and 9th, has Just
imported a first-class velocipede, and
it Is an object of great attraction at
his establishment, it is a smart, styl­
ish-looking affair, but very simple In
Its working. It can be run most rapid­
ly with two wheels, but it is convert­
ible to a three-wheeler. The working
of it brings in play most of the mus­
cles of tlie body, and it is said to be
very healthful. From the facility with
which it is steered or turned, it can
be used on any sidewalk or gravel
walk. The gravel walks of the Smith­
sonian would be just the thing for ve-
locipeders. The style of velocipede to
be seen at Graham’s is the latest
French style; Introduced In this coun­
try by the Hanlon brothers, gym­
nasts.”
The Isolated city of Nfshapur, tn
Persia, was the home of the Persian
best known of all Ills nation to the
western
world—Omar,
surnamed
Khayyum. or the Teatuinker, author
of the Rubaiyat. The poet Is still one
of the great historic figures In his an­
cient city, but he Is remembered there
not as u poet or a ten Una ker but as a
sage, philosopher, astronomer and
mathematician.
Nishapur lies in a barren upland
plain, many days’ overland journey
from the nearest railroad point. It is
encircled by mountains, most of which
are low and barren.
The northern
range, however, rises to a consider­
able height, and through many months
of the year its peaks are white with
snow.
The lower slopes have a cu­
rious reddish tint, due to iron In the
earth, so that rare and delicate color
combinations are formed at dawn and
twilight.
Looking southward from his city,
Omar saw a level, feutureless plain,
depressingly treeless, save for here
and there a clump of slender poplars.
The winter turned it to a lifeless gray;
In the summer, pitiless sunlight and
choking dust tormented the eyes. Only
for a brief spring season did 'the fresh
green of growing crops, the cool mists
that rose after the early rains and
the rainbow gleams of pale color from
the mountains lend the vista a
melancholy charm. Beyond the plain
rose another row of low hills, and be­
yond that, he knew, stretched the end­
less desert. Each year a few weeks
of joy and beauty; between mountain
and desert a few miles of half kindly
man-tilled earth—bits of respite that
hardly broke the hostile round of na­
ture—It Is easier to understand tlm de­
fiant pessimism of the Rubaiyat after
seeing Nishapur. — Chicago Daily
News.
TENNYSON NOT IDEAL HOST
Great Artist Who Was to Pair.t Por­

what Dubious Reception.

Velocipede Wac Considered a Swift-
Moving Vehicle When First Intro­
duced Into This Country.
Here is a tale of Tennyson, told by
Sir Hubert von Herkomer, R. A., who
once went to Freshwater for the pur­
pose of getting sittings for a portrait
of the ¡aureate:
“Getting to the station rather late,
I left my things there, not knowing
what sort of reception I might get.
After I had been received by Mr. Hal­
lam Tennyson, the present Lord Ten­
nyson, old Tennyson came shuffling
in—he had a shuffling way of walking
because he was near-sighted — and
shook hands with me.
“ ’I hate your coming,’ he said; ‘I
cannot abide sitting.’
“That did not seem very promising.
However, after he had conversed for
some time he said :
“‘Where are your things?'
“I explained, and thereupon he got
up, rang the bell, and told a servant
to fetch my luggage.
“ *You had better put up here,’ he
said.
“I felt I was getting along. At
eleven o’clock I went to my room, still
wondering whether I would succeed in
my mission or not. Shortly afterward
there came a rap at the door and I
said, ‘Come in,’ turned around and saw
Tennyson standing in the door. He
said:
" "I believe you are honest. Good
night I’ and thereupon departed.
“It was his way of making amends
for the rather dubious way in • which
he had first met me.”
The Swallow's Back.
An Indian legend tells us that when
men first came on earth they had no
Are. The Great Spirit taught them
bow to do many things; he taught
them how to get food from the for­
est, fish from the waters and corn and
beans from the earth, but fire they
themselves must learn to make.
Even with all the gifts they had
showered upon them they were not
happy, but kept thinking all the time
of the one thing which they still want­
ed, instead of enjoying the many
gifts which were already theirs. All
fire was then in the sun, and they
could think of no way to get It. Men
could not reach it in any way, and no
bird cared to go after It.
Finally the swall.ws, who could fly
more swiftly than any of the other
birds, offered to go to the sun se far
away and bring this gift to men.
The swallow's back is still black,
but no ene ever tried to get fire fsom
the sun again that way. Leng years
afterward men teamed how to make I
lire by rubbing sticks together.

What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity I
GREAT POET'S LIFE UNHAPPY
BY DOCTOR CRIPPS.
It lias always seemed to me that
Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., should be
placed near the top when a list of
America’s great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human dis­
eases to a degree that few realize.
Whenever he found a remedy that over­
came disease, he at once announced it
in the newspapers and told where it
could be bought at a small price. He
did not follow the usual custom of
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb be used. And
so to-day the names of Dr. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
John Milton, Wonderfully Gifted Intel-
lectually. Was Yet a Man of
Many Sorrows.
The grent English poet. Milton, is
described at the age of sixteen as
“scholarly, accomplished and as hand­
some a youth as St. Paul’s had sent
forth.” That was at the age when,
having finished preparatory school, he
was ready for the university.
He was born on Broad street, Lon­
don. His father was a iuan of educa­
tion, with a decided talent for music.
Milton inherited all his esthetic quali­
ties—Indeed, the rougher element at
college called him “the lady,” though
all recognized his intellectuality. Even
at that period, long before he was
twenty, he contemplated writing the
great “Paradise Lost," which was not
finished, it happened, for forty years.
During that long lapse of time Mil­
ton had started bls reputation by the
twin poems, “B Penaeroso” and “L‘Al­
legro;” had married a mere child of
seventeen—an unhappy marriage, as It
turned out; had written some stirring
pamphlets; had almost been killed for
opposing the leading politics; had re­
married and been left a widower
again; had lost bis sight; had found
the three neglected children of his first
marriage not model daughters; had
lived In terrible loneliness in spite of
his great fame, and had been persuad­
ed to marry a third time, for the sake
of being looked after.
He was an old man when the great
“Paradise Lost” appeared, which Is
called “one of the few monumental
works of the world,” and his death
followed some ten years later.
Hew Tosti Repulsed Bore.
Many famous singers were pupils of
Tosti. During one of the busiest of
his moDiiings, when he had a long list
of singing leqsons to get through, n
knock came at the door of his flat.
His valet being ill, Tosti went to the
door himself. A lady, strange to him,
stood on the threshold. “Signor Tosti?”
she Inquired. Tosti bowed. “Oh,” said
the lady, “I am singing your song, ‘My
Memories,’ at Manchester tonight, and
I want you kindly to run through it
with me.” “Madam,” answered Tosti,
politely but firmly. “I fear it Is Im­
possible. I have two pupils with me
now, and a third 1« waiting In the ante-
coom, while others will arrive short­
ly.” “But you must.” the lady persist­
ed. “I sm sorry—” began Tosti again,
when he suddenly received a violent
push backwards, and the lady walked
into the studio. Tosti followed, pro­
testing. After a long argument, which
threatened every moment to beeome
heated, the lady snapped oot: “Very
wen, then. I shan't sing wwr song.”
“Ma*s«.” said Teetl, taking her by
the bond. ”7 an> infinitely obliged to

One of this great physician’s moot
successful remedies is known as Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed of
Mayapple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap­
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because they
move the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after-effects, as so many pills do.
| Very often they make a person who
takes them feel like a new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
of hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
If you are constipated, by all means
go to your druggist and get corns of
Dr. Pieroe’s Pleasant Pellets.
They
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well and
happy.

In Norember Is the festlral of __
St
Brice, who may be called the patron
saint of football players, not alone be­
cause his feast day comes during the
season of the gridiron game, but for
quite another reason. St. Brice’s day
was long genera'ly observed In Eng­
land, and In the year 1002 the celebra­
tion took the form of a general massa­
cre of the Danes. It was on that day,
according to tradition, that the Eng­
lish game of football was Invented,
with the head of a Dane as the ball.
St. Brice, of course, was not responsi­

ball game, having dieu some six cen­
