MILLER, WITH WOOD, BROWN & CO., Dealers in HOSIERY, NOTIONS, WHITE GOODS &C. 429 Market Street: 151 PHILADELPHIA, PA. Bellefonte, Pa., May 27, 1892 ‘Weighing an Elephant. About 200 years ago there lived a Prince of Mahrattas, in Hindostan, whose name was Shahjee. Princes are numerous in India, but this particular prince was long remembered on account of his beneficence and great wisdom. He seems to have been the most learned prince of the time, and his advice and help were always sought in critical mat- ters. Many stories are told of his in- genious settlement of difficulties, and some of them are certainly carious. Once a very high official in the court of Prince Shahjee made a vow that if he succeeded in a certain enterprise, he would distribute to the poor of his district ‘‘the weight of his own elephant in silver.” Elephants were highly prized by these, and each kept the largest and finest for his own use. The official’s vow, if hesty, was generous, and perhaps the success of his under- taking was worth the price. The undertaking suceeeded ; but the official, willing to keep his oath, was met by an unexpected difficulty. There was no possible way of finding the elephant’s correct weight. No scales were constructed of sufficent power to weigh such enormous beasts. Elephants were not sold by the pound, and no need had before arisen for scales to weigh them. All the learned and clever men of the court tried in vain to construct a machine of sufficient pow erto weigh the enormous beast. It did seem probable that the poor of Hindostan would have to get along without the silver. It is possible that the official had thought of this objec- tion when he made the vow. Indians are crafty, and this one mightjhave been cunning enough to leave himself a loophole of escape to prevent parting with his money. But if any such notion had occurred to him, he was doomed to disappoint- ment in the matter. The question was referred to Shahjee, as all such vexa- tious questions were. And it did not take him long to finda very simple solution. That is always the way with true genius, you know. The solution it finds is so simple that every one cries out in wonder. “Why, of course !| Why didn’t some- | body speak of that before ?”’ Shahjee commanded the elephant to be conducted along a platform intoa flat bottomed boat which lay by the water side. When the animal was safely aboard, he desired the attend- ants to mark upon the boat’s side the exact height to which the water reach- ed when the elephant weighed it down. Then the elephant was taken out and stones substituted, until enough were loaded into the boat to bring it to thesame water line as when the ele- phant was the passenger. Then the stones were weighed. If the scales could not hold all at once, part could be taken at a time, you see, and so the elephant’s weight was cor- rectly ascertained. It is said to con- clude that the pcor Hindostans finally got the silver. A prince so wise must have also been just. Whether the official who paid the money was quite satisfied history does not tell us; but we will hope, for his charity’s sake he was, and as a full grown elephant weighs several tons, the amount distri- buted among the poor of the district must have been very large. Chappie’s Umbrella, “The chappies of New York used to roll up their trousers when the cable an- nounced that it was raining in London, but they can soon discard their cus- tom,” said John M. Hughey, of New York, the other day ‘I saw something on Broadway the other day that induced this belief. The rain was coming down in torrents and the flood of humanity always surging on the street night and dey had been driven into doorways and under awnings for protection, For a half hour not a pedestrain was seen on the street. My attention was attracted by yells and I looked outa big plate- glass window to see what was causing the excitement. My curiosity was soon satisfied. In the middle of Broadway one of the slim-necked and consumptive legged chappies was striding along un- der a curious-looking umbrella, as if not a drop of rain was falling. “I noticed that the umbrella had an unusually long handle, with a prodigi- ous hook on the end that almost scraped the ground as the dude proudly cantered along, Through this hook a stream of water was gushing out and left a rivu- letin the dude’s wake. The chappie was so overwhelmed by the flattering re- marks that were showered upon him the rain-frightered pedestrains who had lost confidence in their umbrellas and had taken refuge in the stores that he condescended to step into the room where I was standing. “This gives me an opportunity to ex- amine his funny.looking umbrella, I found that it was so constructed as to curl up around the eaves of houses. This gutter, of -ourse, caught the rain as it ran down the mansard roof of the umbrella and kept it from dripping down to the ground and splashing the chappie’s ice cream trousers. By =a slight tilt of the umbrella the water thus caught was thrown to a common center, which was the entrance to the sewer that runs down through the umbrella’s handle and out to the ground. There, you see, is the riddance of the umbrel- la’s defect as a protection trom rain. The dude proudly told me that it was the latest thing in London ; ‘that all the ‘fellahs’ over there were using them; that he had just came from London j’ and had brought the umbrella over in the ship with him. He badn’t said anything to the chappies about it, be- cause he wanted to knock ’em all out by being the first seen on Broadway with the newest English invention. He knew they would all go wild about it. and he was glad of it. Well, when I get back to New York I don’t expect to see any other kind of umbrella carri- ed by the chappies.” ——He —~Will you marry me? She—One condition. ‘What is it ?

How often we see a man whose manner at the outset wins the esteem and regard of everyone he addresses. A whole souled cordial, yet dignified and modest man- ner is a fine heritage, and I, in common with all my sex, like the man who pos- sesses it. I like a man who preserves a certain dignity but yet is plain; who is open and frank and looks you honestly in the face; who speaks out confidently, yet calmly, modestly, yet firmly; who is neither bluff nor blunt, but free and simple. Ilike a man who is natural; butif a man be naturally too rough, too loud, too curt or too brutal, I like him better when he shows himself able to conquer these defects. Medical. Attorneys-at-Law.

No matter where it may be from, it is as reliable and as worthy your confidence as it it came from your most worthy neighbor. Below we give the original testimony from Mrs. Black- man, of Boston, followed by a very recent let ter, both of which YOU OUGHT TO READ. “Boston, Jan. 12, 2892. “My little boy had Scarlet Fever when four years old, and it left him very weak and with blood poi oned by canker. His eyes became inflamed, his sufferings were intense, and for 7 weeks he COULD NOT OPEN HIS EYES. I took him twice during that time to the Eye and Ear Infirmary on Charles Street, but their remedies failed to do him the faintest shadow of good. I commenced giving him Hood's Sarsaparilla and it soon cured him. I have never doubted that it saved his sight, even if not his very life. I am always ready to praise Hood's Sarsaparilla becanse of the wonderful good it did my son.” AppiE F. BLACKMAN. 2888 Washington street, Boston. Boston, April 14, 1892. «0. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass: I have had a great many inquiries about the testi- monial I recently sent you.

And I can add that my testimony was eniirely vol untary and NOT bought and paid for, nor a small fact polished up and enlarged. And the case of my boy is not the only one I know of where HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA Has accomplished a great cure. Wishing you continued success, I remain, respectfully. AsBIE F.
