The Juror Turned.
——
He Showed the Lawyer He Knew Some Big Ones
Too.
The lawyer was just starting home
after a hard day’s work in the courtroom.
A sedate looking man approached him
and said:
“I don’t know whether you remember
me or not. I am one of the talesmen
whom you interrogated yesterday.”
“Ah?
“There are one or two small matters
that I wanted to ask you about. You
seem to be a person of very superior in-
telligence, and I hope you will give me a
few minutes. J'll walk along with you
to your car so as not to waste any time.
What I wanted to ask you is this: If I
were to say to you that the three faces
which include a triedral angle of a prism
are equal in all their parts to the three
faces which include a triedral angle of a
second prism, each to each, and are like
placed, the two prisms are equal in all
their parts, what would you understand
by it?”
“Why, sir—really’”’—
“You don’t mean to tell me you are
stumped by a little one like that?”
“You see, the question is a little sud-
den, and in order to grasp its full signifi-
cance’ —
“Never mind. Here’s an easier one,
nearer the beginning of the book. If I
were to suggest to you that a certain ob-
ject is a polyvedron, in which two of the
faces are polygons, equal in all their
parts and having their homologous sides
parallel, what would be the impression
conveyed to your mind?”
“To be candid, I never looked into the
subject very deeply.”
“You don’t mean to own up that you
wouldn’t know it was a plain, everyday
prism?”
“I hadn’t thought of it in that light.”
“That’s all. My boy. who isn’t through
high school, could have answered those
questions without stopping to think. I
feel better. You were putting on a lot
of airs yesterday, but you ain’t any ency-
clopedia. I don’t believe you are evea
a handy compendium of useful knowl-
edge. After this display of lamentable
ignorance on your part I want to make
just one suggestion. If you ever get me
into court again, don’t you swing at me
with any more big words and try to act
haughty. I’ve got your measure, and I'ma
liable to be just as supercilious as you
are.”—Washington Star.
The Dramatic Part Centrifugal Attraction Played In
a Chase.
“As every schoolboy knows, the tend-
ency of a body moving in a circle is to
fly away from the center, by the opera-
tion of centrifugal attraction,” remarks
a well known officer. ‘The consequence
is that a train of cars, going around a
curve at a good gait, will be certain to
hug the outside rail, and if it happens to
jump the track one would naturally in-
fer that it would be on the side where
the pressure is gr@test. An incident,
based on this principle, played a star
role in what was possibly the most dra-
matic passage of the entire civil war. I
refer to the pursuit of Andrews’ raiders
when they made their desperate dash
through north Georgia to destroy railroad
communication with Chattanooga. The
raiders stole a freight train at Marietta,
Ga., and started north at top speed.
They were pursued almost immediately
by a detachment of Confederates on 2
locomotive, and then ensued the most
thrilling running fight on record.
“Time and again Andrews and his men
attempted to obstruct the track behind
them, but they were so hard pressed that
they were obliged to take to their train
before they could do the work. At last
they made a spurt that gave them a few
moments’ breathing space and tore a
short section of rail out of a curve. Their
pursuers were coming on full tilt, and it
seemed absolutely certain that they
would be ditched when they reached
that point; but, incredible as it may ap-
pear, they passed straight over the gap
and held their way as if nothing had hap-
pened. The explanation of the seeming
miracle was simply that the raiders, in
the excitement of the moment, had taken
the rail from the inside of the outside of
the curve, and when the locomotive
swung around it was going so fast that
all its weight was practically on the
sound iron. In ether words, centrifugal
attraction saved the day, and, instead of
burning the Chattanooga bridge, An-
drews was caught and hanged as a spy.
“If it hadn’t been for that fatal blun-
der in removing the rail, the raiders would
doubtless have accomplished their pur-
pose, and what such a disaster would
have meant to the Confederacy gives the
imagination unlimited leeway for specu-
lation.” —New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Worn Away by Kissing.
Cicero speaks of a bronze statue of
Hercules which had the features worn
away by the frequent osculations of the
devout. Several instances of the same
kind have occurred in modern times. The
face of a figure of the Saviour, among
the bronze bas-relief which adorn the
Casa Santa at Loretto, has in this way
been quite kissed away.
The foot of the famous statue of St.
Peter, in the Vatican, has also lost much
of its metal by the continual application
of the lips and foreheads of votaries, and
it has been found necessary to protect
the foot of the statue of the Saviour by
Michael Angelo from similar injury by a
brass buskin.
A Mother Seal's Long Swim,
Ernest Whitehead captured a young
seal near Anacapa island, California, and
teok him on board his ship. As the ves-
sel started the mother seal was noticed
swimming about, howling piteously. The
little captive barked responsively. After
reaching the wharf at Santa Barbara the
captive was tied up.in a jute sack and
left loose on the deck. Soon after com-
ing to anchor the seal responded to its
mother’s call by casting itself overboard,
all tied up as it was in the sack. The
mother seized the sack and with her sharp
teeth tore it open. She had followed the
sloop 80 miles.—Our Dumb Animals.

A Complicated Question.
The Mean Trick a Desperado Played on His Widow.
For a western town, which was rather
wild and woolly than otherwise, she was
a very presentable woman in manner and
attire, and when she came into the law-
yer’s office and said she had some im-
portant business for him to handle for
her he felt that he had struck a rich lead.
“Well, madam,” he said, when he had
seated her comfortably and fixed himself
to listen, “if you will tell me the nature
of your business, 1 shall be glad to give
you the best advice and service at my
command.”
“It’s about some morey that my hus-
band left,” she said for a beginning.
“Is he dead?”
“Yes, sir; I’m Bill Nellton’s widow.”
“The notorious—excuse me, madam—
the celebrated desperado who killed so
many men ?”’
“The same one.”
“Did he leave much of a fortune?”
“A good deal for me; about $10,000.”
“A very snug little sum, I am sure,”
smiled the lawyer with a yearning smile.
“But it isn’t mine altogether,” she ex-
plained.
“Why not?”
“That’s what I come to see you about.
Perhaps it is mine.”
“Tell me the particulars.”
“Well, it’s this way: You see, when I
married Bill I was poor and had no
home, and I married him because he had
money, and I thought there was a good
chance of my getting it, for, you know,
Bill went around with his life in his
hands all the time. He knowed I never
married him for love, but he didn’t care
about that so long as I would marry him.
He said he was likely to go any time
with his boots on and was willing for
me to marry again, but he wanted me to
marry a better man than he was, and he
made a will leaving me everything on
condition that I would marry the man
that killed him. That suited me well
enough, because 1 knew there wasn’t any
less desirable man for a husband than
Bill was, so I agreed to it in writing.
Then Bill went it too strong and got the
sheriff after him for shooting a man
without provocation, and the sheriff had
been an old beau of mine, and Bill didn’t
like the looks of things and what did he
do when he was close pushed but shoot
himself.”
“Oh!” exclaimed the lawyer, startled
by the suddenness of the tale.
“And he done it just to spite me,”
whimpered the widow, ‘for with that
signed agreement of mine along with the
will what was I to do? That's what
I've come to see you about. I can't very
well marry the man that killed Bill, and
if T marry anybody else I'm going to
lose $10,000. At least, that’s the way it
looks on paper. I’m tired of being a
widow, but I'm not $10,000 worth tired.
and 1 want you to tell me the law on the
situation.”
At last accounts the lawyer was knee
deep in lawbooks looking up authorities.

A Dangerous Nap.
That travelers in the desert would be
wise not to take a nap when ahead of
their caravans is proved, though it hard-
ly needed proving, by the experience of
Robert L. Jefferson, F. R. G. S., who re-
lates his adventure in The Wide World
Magazine:
I had got ahead not only of the cara-
van, but of Bekel (kis guide) and, wea-
ried with my exertions, lay down on the
sand. I think I must have fallen asleep.
I certainly remember picking from my
face what looked like an enormous spi-
der.
I thought nothing of it until I began to
feel a pain underneath my left eye simi-
lar to that left by a mosquito sting. In {
ten minutes my cheek had swollen enor-
mously, and it was clear that I had been
stung by some venomous reptile or insect.
By the time Bekel came up the swelling
had increased so much that 1 could not
see out of the left eye.
As soon as Bekel saw my face he seem-
ed stricken with terror. He leaped from
his horse, knocked rather than pushed
me down and with the fingers of both
hands commenced pressing the protuber-
ance under my eye.
The pain was terrible, and I yelled in
my agony until I think I must have
fainted, although I well remember one of
the Kirghiz eoming with a long knife,
when at once the idea entered my brain
that they meant to “do for” me. The
knife, however, was used only to extract
the sting of the tarantula.
When I reached Petro-Alexandrovsk
and related the incident to the doctor of
the lazaret there, I learned that I owed
my life to the prompitude of Bekel and
the Kirghiz. Another hour, and help
would have been too late.
F. Hopkinson Smith’s Method.
F. Hopkinson Smith, that most versa-
tile of men. engineer, artist and writer,
says that he stumbled into literature. It
was when he was past 45 years of age
that he wrote some stories to accompany
a number of his water colors, which were
being published, and the success of this
initial venture led to the writing of “Colo-
nel Carter of Cartersville,” which es-
tablished his literary reputation.
He is as conscientious about his writ-
ing as he is in the filling of an engineer-
ing contract or the painting of a picture.
He writes his notes on the pages of a
copy book, leaving the opposite page
blank. He fills in corrections and ampli-
fications, writes and rewrites, until he
feels perfectly satisfied that he has done
the very best he can with the matter in
hand. There must not be a superfluous
word or an unclear expression anywhere
in the story, and only then is the artist
soul satisfied. It is because he works so
hard at his writings that it is such easy
reading. Perhaps he could teach a few
of our obscure impressionists a few of his
secrets.—New York Journal.
Crackerjack.
The Boston Herald thus explains the
origin of the word ‘*‘crackerjack:” *‘In
the hot southwest cactus whisky. or mes-
cal, is a favorite prescription for a jag.
The Mexican loaded with mescal is much
given to Castilian profanity and invective,
his favorite verbal jewel being ‘carajo,’
pronounced carahoo. In time a gorgeous,
red hued, vociferous drunk came to be
called a carajo jag—carahoo jag—and by
corruption a crackerjag or crackerjack;
hence all things supreme, clever, first
class, were by analogy termed cracker-
jacks.”
Somewhat Unequal,
The Mohammedan law of divorce is a
marvel! of simplicity. The husband re-
peats to his wife t.ree times, “You are
divorced,” and the thing is done, but the
wife is not allowed to use the easy formu-
la against her husband. — Philadelphia
Ledger.
BY THE WAY.
The touch of a hand, the glance of an eye
Or a word exchanged with a passerby;
A glimpse of a face in a crowded street,
And afterward life is incomplete;
A picture painted with honest zeal,
And we lose the old for the new ideal;
A chance remark or a song’s refrain,
And life is never the same again.
A friendly smile and love’s embering spark
Leaps into flame and illumines the dark;
A whispered, ‘‘Be brave!” to our fellow men,
And they pick up the thread of hope again;
Thus never an act or a word or thought
But that with unguessed importance is fraught;
For small things build up eternity
And blazon the ways for destiny.

Telltale Littie Bells.
They Protect Themselves From Theft by Opportunely
Ringing.
The tables in the restaurant of a well
known hotel in the central part of the
city were recently equipped with silyer
bells for the use of patrons in calling
the attention of the waiters. The bells
are of the kind that wind up and are
rung by merely. pressing little knobs on
their tops. They cost something like $5
or $6 each, and the proprietor of the ho-
tel is naturally desirous that covetous
guests shall not carry them off. In order
to prevent such surreptitious removal
both he and his employees keep a watch-
ful eye on the bells, but not a little aid is
rendered by the bells themselves. An
evening or so ago, while the saunterer
was in the restaurant, two handsomely
gowned young women and a stylishly
dressed man got up from one of the ta-
bles. One of the young women allowed
the waiter to help her on with her jack-
et, but the other seemed particularly anx-
ious that he should not assist with hers.
The reason became apparent half a
minute later. With one arm in the sleeve
to which it belonged, the young woman
essayed to find the opening to the other
sleeve with her remaining arm. The job
was evidently one to which she was not
accustomed, for she struggled and
squirmed and grew red in the face. Then
from the innermost recesses of an inside
pocket of the jacket there came a sound
that caused everybody to look in the
young woman's direction.
It was the ‘“‘whir-r-r-r-r”’ of one of the
silver bells. The young woman had aec-
cidentally struck the knob with her hand,
and the bell had promptly responded te
the touch. Of course the young woman
blushed when the head waiter came rush-
ing up, and of course her escort made
some ghastly humorous remarks about it
being “all a joke,” but it took a bill of
substantial denomination to induce the
head waiter to say nothing about the little
affair and allow the trio to depart. Equal-
ly, of course. the trio lost no time in de-
parting.
Another evening, not so very long ago,
one of the bells was heard by the waiters
to ring as if it had been muffled. Search-
ing glances were cast in everybody's di-
rection, but no one looked guilty. and, as
none of the guests was on the point of
leaving, nothing was done. But shortly
after the departure of a couple a waiter
saw something shining under the young
woman's chair. It proved to be the bell.
“lI had a narrow escape that time,”
said the proprietor, in telling of the in-
cident. “If that young woman hadn't
accidentally pressed the knob and set the
thing going just as she was about to slip
the bell into her pocket, there would have
been a bell missing, and I'd probably had
some difficulty in figuring out just how it
had been smuggled away.”—Philadelphia
Inquirer.
The Mighty Elephant.
M. Foa has a great admiration for the
elephant, of which he says: “The ele-
phant has only one enemy—man. It
fears none of the animals. In addition
to the intelligence relatively superior to
theirs it possesses strength, size, cour-
age if need be and, moreover, a sense of
touch more delicate than that of any of
them, even the monkey. It travels every-
where, swims like an amphibian and
crosses ravines and rivers, forests and
thickets without distinction.
“Everything gives way before it. It
climbs and descends hills which one
would think inaccessible to it; it crosses
whole countries in a night, like an undis-
puted master in his vast domains; it is
here, there and everywhere, hiding like a
mouse, despite its great size, and noise-
lessly disappearing like an unseizable
Proteus, much to the discomfort of the
hunter. Finally, if its life is spared, it
is ready to become once more, as in for-
mer times when it fought by his side, the
ally. the friend. the servant and the pro-
tector of man.-
“The elephant is the true king of ani-
mals. Compare this noble animal with
the useless lion, the noeturnal prowler
at the mercy of a pack of wolves.”
Fe Saved a Shilling.
At a certain cloth factory in Scotland
it was the custom to fine the workpeople
for turning out bad work. One day a
workman brought a piece of cloth to be
examined, and the manager found two
littlé holes about an inch apart. He then
showed these to the man and demanded
2 shillings fine, a shilling for each hole.
“Is it a shilling for each hole?” asked
the man.
“Yes,” said the manager.
“And is it the same for every hole, big
or little?”
“Yes: exactly the same.” said the man-
ager.
“Well, then. I'll save a shilling.” And
putting his fingers in the holes he quickly
made the two into one.—London An-
swers.
Very Sagacious.
A farmer had a very sagacious dog
which he had trained to count his sheep
as they passed through a particular
opened gate, against which a pile of
stones were placed for the dog's use. As
each sheep passed through. the dog plac-
ed one of the stones aside. One day, much
to the farmer's surprise. he found the dog
trying to break a stone in half. and on
himself counting the flock he found there
had been an addition in the night of a
lamb.
Frankness In the Home.
John—You're an ignorant woman, Ma-
ria!
Maria—I don’t know everything, John.
John—Umph! Some people don’t know
2nough to know how little they do know.
Maria—I’m surprised to hear you say
that, John. [ didn’t think you were
frank enough to make such an honest
confession.— Boston Courier.
From an interpretation of a passage in
the Koran, Moslems are forbidden to
have shades to their eyes: hence the ab-

To Prevent Colds.
A Few “Don'ts” Which If Observed Will Keep One
Well.
We have just entered upon the season
when the changeable weather makes colds
especially rife.
According to its natural meaning, it
would seem that a cold was an affection
produced by exposures to low temperatures,
in cold weather. © Nothing could be further
from the truth than this. Colds are not
nearly so common in very cold countries as
in the temperate zone. They secure im-
munity against it.
Colds are not nearly so frequent high up
amid the Alps as in the cities at the foot of
mountains. Nansen, the Artic explorer,
spent two years amid the Artic snows,
with the temperature so low most of the
time the mercury was frozen in his ther-
mometers, yet he and his men had not suf-
fered from a cold. They had been hack in
the civilization scarcely a week before some
of his companions were laid up with grip-
py colds.
If we look at colds as infectious we are
able to frame certain rational laws that
will help us to escape them. They are
about as follows:
Don’t live or work in damp, dark, places
where the sunlight never succeeds in pene-
trating, or in such small amounts that its
beneficial work as nature’s great scavenger
and germicide to do their work of purifica-
tion cannot be successfully accomplished.
Above all, don’t sleep in a room where,
during the day, there isnosunlight. Even
in summer time such places are prone to be
breeders of disease germs. In the winter
when the microbic life is more luxuriant,
such places fairly swarm with minute or-
ganisms. Many of these, of course, are
not producers of disease, but then many
are.
Don’t change very light clothing for
heavy clothing all at once. Don’t for in-
stance, change summer outer and inner
garments on the same day. One of the
greatest mechanical feats nature performs is
the keeping of the human temperature un-
der the varying conditions of external heat
and cold exactly at the same figure. A
native of the temperate zone may go to
frozen arctic or torrid equatorial regions,
but his temperature will not vary one-fifth
of a degree from what it has always been,
the sending of more blood than usual to
the little vessels in the skin leads to its be-
ing cooled, and so it returns to cool the
system. During the winter so much blood
is not sent to the surface, and its heat is re-
tained. Sudden changes in the condition
of the skin must be avoided, or the circula-
tion disturbed, and with it the general
health and the ability to resist disease.
Don’t wear extremely heavy clothing in
winter time. Its weight makes it a source
of irritation to the skin, which is not mere-
ly the external covering of the body. It is
not the thickness of clothing nor its weight
that protects from cold, but the amount of
air it contains in its meshes. Air is a good
non-conductor of heat, and so helps us to
retain the heat we possess. If an individ-
ual is very sensitive to heat and cold it
would be better to wear a couple of suits of
lighter, thinner woolen underclothing than
one very heavy suit. The layer of air be-
tween them makes them eminently pro-
tective.
Don’t wear chest protectors. Their use
is founded on a mistaken notion. They
disturb the nominal regular circulation in
the skin, and so invite danger.
We sit for hours breathing in germs at
every breath. When we suddenly go into
the cold air, however, these mucous mem-
branes lose a good deal of blood that was
flowing in them just a moment before, for
the cold causes contraction of all the ex-
posed blood-vessels.
In Highways and Lanes.
Pittsburg and Allegheny had a house to
house Sunday school canvass, under the
lead of the County Sunday School Associa-
tion, and organized by Mr. Hugh Cork, a
specialist in that work. He selected 2,250
workers from all the churzhes, even the
Catholics co-operating, and gave each
worker a block of homes small enough to
be reached in one day. Then, after sev-
eral conferences, fully defining the work,
they visited 83,000 homes in one day, and
ascertained the church relations or inclina-
tions of 400,000 people. Nearly every
house was gladly opened to them, only a
few hundred of the 83,000 refusing the
desired information. Later, the entire
county of Allegheny was visited. One
pastor secured forty-three members to his
church from the information the visitors
gave. Many Sunday schools have added
25 per cent. to their membership.
OLD PEOPLE MADE YOUNG.—J. C. Sher-

remarkable secret of keeping old people
young. For years he has avoided Nervous-
ness, Sleeplessness, Indigestion, Heart
trouble, Constipation and Rheumatism, by
using Electric Bitters, and he writes : ‘It
can’t be praised too highly. It gently
stimulates the kidneys, tones the stomach,
aids digestion, and gives a splendid ap-
petite. It has worked wonders for my
wife and me. It’s a marvelous remedy for
old people’s complaints.”’ Only 50 cents
