a state of absent miiuledness. left tin

it remained eight days. At stable No

They knew the attorney was perfectly
good for the pay. They knew that if
he Kept the team a month the bill
would be paid promptly on presenta
tion. They presumed that he knew
what be was about and concluded it
was his business and not theirs. At
stable No. 2 there was equal freedom
from anxiety. The attorney came
there, left the team and went away,
saying nothing. They put the horse
into a stall and "chalked it down" on
the office slate, knowing him to be a
business man who paid cash. Discov
ery came at last, and the lawyer was
presented with two bills, one for eight
days' hire and the other for eight days'
keep. He paid both bills promptly,
but it cured him of being absentmind
nl for nearly a whole month.
The Coffee Cup In Persia.
The expression "to give a enp of
coffee" has in I'ers'a a somewhat omi
nous signitlcance. This is due to the
fact that the coffee cup is one recog
nized medium for conveying poison.
Some years ago the governor of Aspa
dana. having long been at daggers
drawn with the chief of a powerful
mountain tribe, determined in this
way to put an end to all trouble. He
professed to entertain a great degree
of friendship and esteem for the chief
tain and invited him to visit him at his
palace. The chief unsuspiciously came,
accompanied by his two young sons.
For a week they were royally enter
tained. Rut at last one morning when
the chief came into his host's presence
he was coldly received, and an attend
ant soon stepped forward with a single
cup of coffee in his hand, which he of
fered to the guest. The latter could
not fail to understand that he was
doomed. Preferring, however, steel to
poison, he declined the cup and was
thereupon, at a signal from his host,
stabbed to death.
Salad of the Shoes.
Freshmen have troubles the world
over. The "conscrits," as they are
called at the famous Ecole Polytech
nique in Paris, are subjected to an
amusing initiation called the salad of
shoes. The freshmen report some
days before the upper class men so
that they can receive their uniforms
and become familiar with the routine
of the school. The first morning after
their tormentors return the freshmen
are aroused by a demand that they
throw their shoes out of the windows
into the courtyard. The shoes a.re
gathered into a heap. and. kneeling
in a big circle around this, the fresh
men are obliged togo through some
ridiculous gymnastic movements at
the command of their superiors. When
| the study Hell rings they have but a
j minute to appear in the class rooms,
j and it is a strenuous minute around
1 that pile of shoes.

THE SPIDER'S THREAD.
Its Use by Astronomers In Their Study
of the Stars.
The threads of the garden spider are
fixed by astronomers in their tele
scopes for the purpose of giving line
lines to the field of view by which the
relative positions of stars may be ac
curately measured.
For a century astronomers desired
to make use of such lines of the great
est possible fineness and procured at
first silver wire drawn out to the ex
treme limit of tenuity attainable with
that metal. They also tried hairs one
five-hundredth of an inch thick and
threads oft lie silkworm's cocoon,
which are split into two component
threads, each only one two-thousandth
of an inch thick. But in 1820 an Eng
lish instrument maker named Trough
ton introduced the spider's line. This
can be readily obtained a fourth if
the thickness of the silkworm's thread
and lias also advantages in its strength
and freedom from twist.
In order to obtain the thread the
spider is carefully fixed on a minia
ture rack, and the thread, which at
the moment of issue from the body is
a viscid liquid, is made to adhere to
a winder, by turning which the desired
length of firm but elastic thread can
be procured.—London Graphic.
Henley's Sufferings.
In fifty-four years of his life—he
was born In 1849 —W. E. Henley never
knew what a day's perfect health
meant. When little more than a boy
he was attacked by a disease which
necessitated the amputation of one
foot. He was told later by the doc
tors that the sacrifice of the other leg
was ueccssary were ho to live. The
fame of Dr. I.ister had reached Hen
ley. and, penniless and almost friend
less. he determined to try Edinburgh
infirmary. Thither he traveled third
class In physical suffering such as few
have known, and when he reached
the infirmary his whole possessions
amounted to a few shillings. His con
fidence in I.ister was justified, and his
leg was saved. He was and remained
a cripple, but neither hopeless nor help
less. His astounding uimbleneflg un
der these conditions suggested to Rob
ert I.ouis Stevenson the physical Sketch

Mythical Creatures of Japan.
The Japanese believe in more myth

the globe, civilized or savage. Among
them are mythical animals without
any remarkable peculiarities of con
formation, but gifted with supernat
ural attributes, such as a tiger which
is said to live to be a thousand years
old and to turn as white as a polar
bear. They also believe in a multitude
ot animals distinguished maiuly by
their size or by the multiplication of
their members. Among these are ser
pents 800 feet long and large enough
to swallow an elephant, foxes with
eight legs, monkeys with four ears,
fishes with ten heads attached to oue
body, the flesh of which Is a cure for

reached the age of 000 years, has no

Extravagant Mourning.
Pepys' diary has this on the mourn
ing customs of the time: On Sept. 22
ICOO. when there was mourning for
' King Charles' brother, the Duke of
Gloucester, he "bought a pair of short
black stockings to wear over a pair of
' silk ones for mourning." Next day
; "came one from my father's with a
black cloth coat, made ot my short
cloak, to walk up and down in." The
' problem ot mourning for men must
' have been greater tlinn It is now In
those days, when ordinary masculine
' costume was less somber. On this oc

in purple mourning for bis brother"
