Care Too Expenalvti
IWuts are curious things. They
come and go mysteriously, although
their going is frequently marked by
exasperating delays, and there are al
most as many infallible cures as there
ire warts, the only trouble with these
cures being that they are useless wiien
applied to the particular wart you hap
pen to have.' They are only good for
atlier people's.
"In my opinion," said a clubman,
who was discussing the subject with a
friend one day, "a wart is merely the
DUtward correspondence of some men
tal excrescence. (Jet rid of that, and
It goes away.
"Let me give you a bit of my own ex
perience," he continued. "Last year I
went to Europe. For about three years
I had had a wart on my little linger,
011 which I had tried everything I could
hear of, but without effect. It only
grew larger.
"Well, in the excitement of prepar
ing for the trip and of the journey it
self I forgot all about my wart, and
when I looked for it about six weeks
later it had vanished without leaving
the slightest mark. I simply forgot it,
and it had no mental condition to feed
on. I see you have one on the back of
your band. Forget all about it for a
few weeks, and it will go away of it
self."
"Yes," said the other clubman, shrug
ging bis shoulders, "but 1 can't afford
to take a trip to Europe for the sake
of curing one wart." —Youth's Compan
ion.
Giving Ilor a Le»on,
The habit of describing tilings as
"awfully jolly" was iftuusingly satir
ized by a gentleman who came borne
prepared to chat 011 events of the day.
An acquaintance had failed in busi
ness. lie spoke of this incident as "de
liriously sad." He had' ridden in an
omnibus with a friend whom he de
scribed as "horribly entertaining," and
to crown all he spoke of the butter
which had been set before him at his
restaurant as "divinely rancid."
"Why, dad, you are going off your
bead!" said his youngest and most im
pertinent daughter.
"Not in the least, mv dear," he said
pleasantly. "I'm merely trying to fol
low the fashion. 1 worked out 'di
vinely rancid' with a good deal of la
bor. It seems to me rather more ef
fective than 'awfully sweet.' I mean
to keep up with the rest of you here
after. And now," he continued, "let
me help you to u piece of this exqui
sitely tough beef."—London Telegraph.
The Man Kneed Crnli.
One of the most singular looking
creatures that ever walked the earth or
"swain the water under the earth" is
the world famous man faced crab of
Japan. Its body is hardly an inch in
length, yet lh*j head is fitted with a
face which is tlie perfect counterpart
of that of a Chinese cooly, a veritable
missing link, with eyi s, nose and
mouth all clearly deiiued. This curi
ous and uncanny creature, besides the
great likeness it bears to a human be
ing in the matter of facial features, is
provided with two legs which set 111 to
grow from the top of its head and hang
down over the sides of its face.
sides these logs, two "feelers," each
about an inch in length, grow from the
"chili" of the animal, looking for all the
world like a colonel's forked beard.
These man faced crabs fairly swarm
iu the inland seas of Japau.
A Devoted Mothrr,
Although looked upon as vermin and
destroyed accordingly, the weasel is
a good mother and probably treats her
young ones more kindly than many
of her human enemies treat theirs. A
weasel, carrying something in her
mouth, was once seen to enter a hole in
II tree. The observer, applying lighted
straw, soon smoked her out. She then
darted toward a stone wall, near which
she was attacked by a terrier, which
speedily slew her. She fell an easier
victim because of the burden she bore
iu her teeth. Anxious to see what this
was, the onlooker went forward and
fouml it was a baby weasel. The moth
er's nest in a field close by had been
plowed up, and she had been searching
for another home. As her youngster
could not run she carried it in her
mouth rather than leave it to perish.
The Adornment of an Arab Girl.
Arab girls before they enter the
harem and take the veil are a curious
sight to behold. Their bodies and
Tace are dyed a bright yellow with
turmeric. On this ground they paint
black lines with antimony over their
eyes. The fashionable color for the
nose is red, green spots adorn the
cheeks, and the general aspect is gro
tesque beyond description.—"Southern
Arabia," by Mr. and Mrs. T. Bent.
Cologne Cathedral.
One would think that the identity
of the architect of such a superbly de
signed building as the Cologne cathe
dral could not possibly be lost to the
world. But it is. The cathedral took
centuries to build, and many architects
have modeled parts of it according to
their own ideas. The result is the most
beautiful cathedral in the world.
The Ivory Nat.
The vegetable ivory nut of commerce
is the albuminous seed found in the
drupes of a dwarf palm. From these
nuts European turners fashion the
reels of spindles, small boxes and
many other little fancy articles, which
can bo colored with sulphuric acid.—
Chambers' Journal.
Antlprofanlty.
In Switzerland and Italy good people
go about ■vitli little cards containing
pledges against swearing. These are
presented whenever the bearers lieai

Be Sure Yon 1 Vnd,
The man who would tike to know
something about astronomy must lay
out a little scheme of study for him
self, get the books which are neces
sary and have them at band the mo
ment be Is at leisure. The man who
wishes to familiarize himself with po
litical economy, with polities or with
industrial questions, which are now of
Buch importance, must find out what
textbooks he ought to have, secure
those textbooks and keep them by his
side.
The man who wishes to know litera
ture does not need to lay out an elabo
rate plan which fills him with discour
agement by .Its very magnitude, but he
does need to decide what author he is
going to read next, and he does need
to get the book and keep It within easy
reach.
Almost all the great classics are now
published in such portable forms that
a man can carry a play of Shakespeare,
the essays of Bacon, the poems of M'en
nyson or of Browning, a translation of
"Faust," Matthew Arnold's criticisms,
Emerson's essays or John Burroughs'
charming transcriptions of nature in
his coat pocket and substitute them for
the newspaper which Is thrust in his
face by an eager newsboy and which
he buys because he has nothing else to
read. —Success.
One Hopeful Sign.
While I was llv+fig in California,
writes an Englishman, I had the oppor
tunity of noting the extreme considera
tion shown to employees by California
employers. I cannot recall an instance
of a cruel and cutting rebuke from one
in authority to a clerk or servant dur
ing the seventeen years of my stay.
A friend of mine had a clerk who
was always forgetting important du
ties. Letters would be forgotten, im
portant entries on the books omitted,
and messages even were sometimes not
delivered. Said my friend to me one
morning:
"Really, I must speak to John."
So John was summoned, and I won
dered what manner of rebuke would
fall upon his head.
"John," said my friend, "it is most
astonishing what a very bad memory
you have. But I believe that in time it
will improve, because I have noticed
that you have never once forgotten to
draw your salary on the first of the
month."
John took the hint, and after that my
friend was more faithfully served.
Antiquity of the Water Pump,
The water pump of today is but an
improvement on a Grecian invent Km
which first came into use during the
reign of I'tolemles Philadelphos and
Energetes, 283 to 221 B. C. The name,
which is very similar in all languages,
is derived from the Greek word pempo,
to send or throw. The most ancient de
scription we have of a water pump is
by Ilero of Alexandria. There is 110
authentic account of the general use of
the pump in Germany previous to the
beginning of the sixteenth century.
At about that time the endless chain
ami bucket works for raising water
from mines began to be replaced by
pumps.
In the seventeenth century rotating
pumps, like the Pappenham engine,
with two pistons, and the Prince Ku
pert, with one, were first used. Pumps
with plunger pistons were invented by
Morland, an Englishman, in 1074, and
the double acting pump by De la Hire,
tlie French academician.
Funny Speeches.
Grose relates tliat Caulfield, meeting
Mr. Thomas Sandby, said: "My dear
Sandby, I'm glad to see you. Pray, is
it you or your brother?" It was a
Spaniard who remarked ingeniously
that an author should always write his
own index, let who will write tin
book. Edgeworth relates the story of
an English shopkeeper who did pretty
well in the direction of the bull proper
when, to recommend the durability of
some fabric for a lady's dress, he said,
"Madam. It will wear forever and
make you a petticoat afterward." Tills
is quite equal to the Irishman's rope
which had only one end because the
other had been cut away.—Temple Bar.
Keeping Butter.
Good butter will keep sweet for many
weeks when It Is placed In a crock
after being made into rolls wrapped
in strong cheesecloth or old muslin
•.md then covered with a brine strong
enough to bear up an egg. Saltpeter
and sugar may be added to advantage
while the brine Is still hot in the pro
portion of a teaspoonful of the former
and a tablespoonful of the latter to ev
ery four quarts. The brine must, how
ever, not be poured upon the butter
until It is entirely cold.
To Vnrnldh Bronae.
To make a brilliant black varnish
for bronze make a bath of equal parts
of nitrate of silver and nitrate of cop
per. Dip the articles to be treated into
this liquid and allow them to remain
there for some time. Upon withdrawal
heat them over the flame of an alcohol
lamp until the black potina color has
been reached.
