The Languages of Paradise.
Every language lias its admirers. In
"Lucile" the author. Owen Meredith,
maintained that when he heard French
spoken as he approved he "found him
self quietly falling in love." Edward
lluuoii is another instance of this lin
gual fascination, in stating his pref
erence in his enchanting "Cities of
Spain" lie recalls an interesting me
diaeval legend. He says:
"And as 1 listened to the splendid
syllables of the Castilian tongue that
rang eloquently through the twilight 1
remembered the saying of that old
Spanish doctor of whom James Unw
ell tells us in his 'lnstructions For
Forraine Travel!'—to wit, that Spanish.
Italian and French, these three daugh
ters of the Latin language, were spo
ken in paradise; that God Almighty
created the world in Spanish, the
tempter persuaded Eve in Italian and
j Adam begged pardon in French."
Taste is Localized.
Taste is curiously localized in the
mouth. Put a lump ot sugar on the
lip of your tongue and you will tind it
distinctly sweet. Then try it halfway
| back on the tongue and you will find
it tasteless. All sweet or aromatic
substances, such as wine, sugar and
coffee, can be properly appreciated by
the front half of the tongue, a piece of
knowledge that every true coiitioiss'jur
applies when he sips instead of taking
a mouthful. With most other sub- j
stances, however, the reverse is true. !
in these cases the tip of the tongue
serves only for touching—it is the back
part that tastes. The sides of the
mouth, too, are quite insensible to cer
tain substances not tasteless. Put
some salt or vinegar between the teeth
and the cheek and you will lind them
absolutely flavorless.—London Stand

Wrestling For Rant.
In several cantons of Switzerland
the custom prevails oi holding wros
! tling matches and other exhibitions of
physical strength at their choral, gym
nastic and rifle festivals. The cham
pions taking part in these athletic
sports belong to the most diverse
ranks in the social scale. Thus at a
recent festival at (Jreuchen, a little
town in the canton of So leu re. a
wealthy property owner and Jiis ten
ant. a carpenter, stepped Into the are
na to wrestle according to the rules of
the art There were to be four rounds,
or "fails." The slake for each "fall'*
was one quarter's rent. After the < ar
pentt r had thrown liis landlord four
times the victor's prize was awarded
to him. ami lie accordingly found him
self entitled to live In his house rent
free for n whole year.

C r( UNTY PRESS, THURSDAY JULY 14, iqro.
Saved by His Wit.
Lord Justice I'ltzgibbou. at the time
1 when lie was one of the justices of up
peals of Ireland. was holding assixen
in Tipperary county when a man wan
brought before liini <>n indictment foi
murder. The case was proved that the
victim canu* to liis death by being bii
with a stick in the bauds of the de
fendant, but the doctor testified that
ho had what they culled in medical
parlance a "paper skull."
The case looked dark for the prison
er, however, and the jury returned a
verdict of guilty. As the man was
brought before the court for sentence
it was noticed that his lordship bad his
black cap in his hand.
I"Have you anything to say why sen
teuce should not be pronounced upon
I you?" demanded I.ord Kitzglbbon.
The man looked for a moment and
j then said. "No, your lordship, I have
I nothing to say. but I should like to
ask one question."
"What is that, my man?" said Fit/.-
gibbon.
"1 should like to know what n man
I with a head like that was doing in
I Tipperary?"
The black cap was put away and a
; prison sentence Imposed.
.Joseph Chamberlain, the English
statesman, was once indebted to a
nursery rhyme for a great oratorical
hit. In one of his speeches he was
• criticising Lord Beaconsfleld and Lord
Salisbury 011 their return from Berlin,
where they had been carrying 011 ne
gotiations with Bismarck. Both had
made speeches explaining their ac
tions, and one of theiu in the course
of his oratory used the word "if" so
many times as to give .Mr. Chamber
lain a chance in his reply to make one
I of those popular allusions which are
J remembered longer than any logic.
"What the honorable gentleman has
I said," he remarked, "remind me of a
I rhyme I learned from my nurse:
"If all the seas were bread and cheese.
If all the rivers were Ink,
i If all the lakes were currant cakes.
What should we have to drink?"
The effect on the audience was tre
| mendous. No one ever forgot that "if."
Marriage Marts.
The famous Tunis marriage mart i.«
j held twice a year, in the spring and in
I the autumn. The Tunisian girls attend
i by the hundreds, each with tier dowry
' in coin and jewelry disposed about bet
j person. The "golden girdle of maiden
] hood" encircles her waist, and in it i*
■ an unsheathed dagger. When the dag
-1 ger is gently removed by a passing gal
j iant and presently returned, it means
I that a proposal has been made.
A prettier custom prevails among the
I Ooraon maids, who, at stated intervals
j assemble in the market place. In from
I of each is a lighted lamp, an emblem
| of conjugal fidelity. A young man
! feels attracted and gently blows upon
j the flame, extinguishing it. When tlie
! girl relights it.it is a rejeetmeiit: if she
1 allows the lamp togo unlighted, how-
J ever, the suitor is acceptable.
Wise Elephants.
Elephants, those animal sages that
are constantly changing keepers, be
come so wise and know so much about
the tricks of the trade and human na
ture in general that they finally will
i not work for any man. It is doubtful
| if there is it bull elephant more thau
' fifty years old performing in this coun
try. They have not "gone bad." as the
showmen say. but have learned too j
I much, picked up from their keepers,
j and they cannot be worked with safe
, ty. An elephant that is going to make
trouble turns his hack on his Intended
victim ami begins t>> swing his great
body from side to side. Then in a
flash he wheels, catches the offender
with his trunk and hurls him perhaps
twenty feet away, following swiftly
to crush the life from his body with
bU mighty knees.

THE CALL OF THE SEA.
"The water is fine; come in!"
From gay Atlantic City comes the call; from witching Wildwood: from
Cape May in the flush of her rejuvenation; from Asbury Park and Long Branch
where the rare beauty of the country with its sylvan shades meets the
. crests of the incoming billows; from all the wave
\ washed coast of New Jersey, comes the summer call
\ of the sea.
\ jr To all these delightful resorts, the service of
112 112 the Pennsylvania Railroad is high-grade and con
yT venient. To Atlantic City, Cape May, Wildwood
\ ' ) and Ocean City, direct connection is made via the
v \ Delaware River Bridge without transfer across
\ \ \\ Philadelphia.
\ \ )J \ To Asbury Park, Long Branch, and
\ \ \ " ) the Upper Coast resorts, good service is
\ \ J provided by through trains from Philadelphia.
\ \ \ y The call of the sea is on. It promises
\ \ \ J? a regvlar dividend of pleasure, and an extra
\ \ \ . grant of health and vigor to those who
\ \ \ heed it. , 1
