Ibe Cause ot Thirst.
There is ia Italy a fountain over
which is the statue of a beggar drinking
at spring. It is called the "Ilggar"o
Fountain," and this is Its story :
Oace upon a ticae there lived", so says
the legend, a very proud and haughty
min, who hated the poor and set him
self above all the world who were not
aa wealthy and well dressed as himself,
ant! his want of charity was so great
that it hud become proverbial, and a
beggar woaM no more have thought of
asking bread at his gate than ot asking
him for all his fortune.
However, there was a spring on his
land, a sweet spring of cold water, and
as It was the only one for miles many
a wavfarer pinsed to drink at it, bat
never was pjrmitted to do sa. A ser
vant, well armed was kept upon the
watch to drive 6uch persons away.
Xow, there had never been known
before any one so avaracioas as to re
fuse a cup of cold water to his fellow
man, and the angels, talking amongst
mic.h othar. could no believe it ; and
one of them said to tbe rest :
It is impossible for anybntSttan
himself ? I will go to earth and prove
that it Is not true."
And so this fair and holy angel die
guised herself as a beggar-woman,
covertd her golden hair with a black
hood, and chose the moment when the
master of the house was himself stand
log near the spring to come slowly up
the road, walking over the stones with
bare feet, and to pinse beside the foun
tain and humbly ask for a draught of
its sweee water.
Instantly the servant who guarded
the spot interposed the pike he carried.
but the angel, desiring to take news of
a good deed, not of an evil cue, back to
heaven, turned to the master himself.
'fcir." alie said. am, as you see,
a wan Jerer from afar. See how poor
hit raiments are. how stained with
travol. It is not surely at your biddin g
that yonr servant forbids me to drink.
and eve:, if it Is, I pray you bid him let
me alone, for I am very thirsty-"
The rich man looked at her with
scornful eys and laughed conteinptu
ously.
"This not n puWic fountain." he
said. "You will God one in the next
Tillage."
'The way H long." pleaded the
artfffl, -'and I era a worn in. but weak
Drive her away," said th rich
man, and. S3 be spoke, the beggar
turned ; but on tbe instant her block
hot;d dropped from her head and re-vtM't-d
fl ods of rippling golden hair
her uasaemty ras fell to the ground
and the shimmering robes that argl
wear shone iu their place, lor a mo
ment she hovtred, poised on purple
wine3. WL& her hands fo'ded on her
bosom and an ineffable sweetness of sot
row in her eyes. Then, with a gu.h of
music and a fl)od of perfume, ehs van
isbed.
The servant fell to the earth like one
dead. The rich mas trembled and
cr'.ed out, for he knew that he had for
bidden a cup of cold water to an "angel,
and horror possessed his soul.
Almost instantly a terrible thint fell
upon him whtch nothing could assuage.
In vtln he dratk wines, sherbets,
draujhfs of all pleasing kinds. Noth
ing could blake bis thirst. The sweet
water of the spring was Salter to bim
than the sea. He who never in hia life
had known an ungratiued desire now
experienced the torture of an ever un
satisfied longing ; but through this mis
ery he began to understand what be had
done. He rep-nted his cruelty to the
poor. A'ms were given dally at bis
gate. Charity was tbe business of his
lire The fouatain was no longer guard
ed, and near it hung ever a cup ready
for any one who chose to use it. But
the curse if curse It were was never
lifted.
The rich man young when the an
gel visited him grew middle-aged,
elderly, old, still tortcred by this awful
thirst, despite bis prayers and repent
ance. He had given away bis sub
stance ; be had himself broken bread
for the most miserable beggars who
earn to his door.
And at t0 yenrs of age, bowed with
years of inCrccity and weary of his life,
be sat one day baiJj thefoantain weep
ing. And lo I along tbe road bo saw
approachicg a beggar woman,boodd in
black, wearing sordid rags, and walk
ing over the stones in ber bare feet.
Slowly she came on and paused beside
the fcrntain.
"M iv I drir.k ?" she ssked.
'There ar are note to forbid flee."
sai 1 too o'd mn tremblirg. 'Drink,
poor woman. Oaee an acgel was for
bi V'n hi-re, bo? that ticn" has pavwd.
Drink v J pray for one atbirst. Here
isti-ecup."
The w?rsn bent over tbe fountain
and filled tb cup ; but Instead of put
ting it to hr Hp she presented It to
tfcos of tt-e old man.
"Drink, then," she cried an I thirst
no mre."
The o'J man took the cup and emp
tied it. (n. Mesaed draught ! With it
the tortuie of years departed, and as he
drank i he plained heaven. And lift
ing his eyes onre more be saw the beg
gar's hood drop to the ground and htr
rsgs fall to piece. Tor a moment sle
stood revealed la all ber beau'y of
snowy skin and golden hair and silvery
raiment ; and she stretched ber band
toward bim, as in blessing, and lb en, rid
ing on purple pinions, vanish! d In the
skies. A e'raln of music lingered, a
perfuras GLeJ the air, and those who
came there soon after fouDd tb old
did praying beside the spring.
lWore Le ditd be built tbe fountain
from which the spring gushes, and it,
with a splendid mansion beyond it, now
a hospital, has been given to tbe poor
forever. ' - -

ETratful Career of aa ladian Farmer.
e
Oa a farm some ten miles from Mad
ison, Ind., there lives a mvi. "a youth
to fortune and to fame unknown." but
nevertheless possessed of extraordinary
powers.
James Xorville, for that la his name.
was born in 117 at fioyder, Kew South
Wales. His mother was born in Jeru
salem and his father at Tangier. Afri
ca. At an early age he boarded a train
ing ship the Asplnwall at Green
which, where be remained for three
years, during which time he was taught
to read and write English and German.
This was all the schooling be ever bad.
except a short course In a night school
at Alexandria, Africa. Later on in his
eventful career be spent 17 years on tbe
Feoinsular and Oriental Line as mid
shipman, sailing from Liverpool via
Qaeenstown to Calcutta.
When on the Indian Ocean during
the daikest night he could calculate tbe
distance which a storm bad driven his
ship and the lattltude in which be was
sailing within five seconds of the exact
position.
His traveling has been extensive and
bis experience most varied. He was
with the Twenty-second Highlanders
at the rescue of Lack now and was on
tbe ship Crocodile at tbe siege of Sibas
topol. He passed through our civil
war, serving in the Tsnth Missouri Cav
alry. He carries two Minis balls in bis
body, aod part of bis skull was shot
away, paralysis resulting therefrom,
and causing the lid et one eye to be
useless.
Mr. Xorvllle is also aa able lirgnist,
being acquainted with Arab. Turkish,
rerslan. Sanscrit and Hebrew, and
speaks German. Italian. French and
Spanish. At one time be taogbt tba
cbi'drcaof the EoglUh soldiers at Al
lahabad, and while there learned Sans
crit from the priests.
Tbe most wonderful thing relative to
this man is bis retentive memory. H
can recite tbe Koran and the Talmud,
verbatim, and also Green's History of
England and Frost's History of the
Ud'.ted Sta'es. He recently recited an
article from a newspaper of April 10,
1380. never having read it since that
time. He is a very ordinary looking
man, of whom bis neighbors koow but
littlb, nor are tbey able to beccme fa
miliar with bim.
Talue r the Flesh-Brush. '
It is well known that muscles put to
any unusual or severe strain are likely
to suffer lameness and soreness. Some
times this pave the way for rheuma
tism. A brisk robbing of tbe parts that
haye bean overworked will save subse
quent lameness. If tbe lower limbs
are treated in this way after an unusual
and fattgnlng walk, the naturally-expected
lameness will be quite sure to
be missed tbe following day. Those
who Cnd it difficult to get to sleep at
night should try tbe experiment of giv
ing tbe body a brisk and thorough rub
bing just before retiring, using the
palms of tbe bands, or a moderately
stiff towel, or fUsh brush, while the ef -feet
ot freeing the pores of the skin
from deleterious matter would be bene
ficial to tbe general health. With ba
bies, a gentle but thorough rubbing of
tbe whole body with the bands at night
not only qu!efs the neryes and renders
the little ones generally comfortable,
but Induces refreshing sleep. This is
a fact with which many mothers are
unfamiliar, bat which, if followed,
wonld add much to the comfort and
well being both of themselves and their
chlleren. Harsh or long continued fric
tion is to be avoided since thie would
Irritate the skin and cause discomfort.
To assist in freeing the pores of their
impurities, a gentle pressure or knead
leg of the surface of tbe body is benefi
cial for those who are somewhat ad
vanced in years.
The Requirements ot Frait Trees.
The copious manuring or sod pressing
so important for a success To I grewth
I aod fine bearing ef apple trees might

will bear free cutting back to bring i;

trees are k'lled by It. Free manuring
of dwarf peach trees la absolutely essen

tbe difference between large, fine, de

ard pears better than dwarfs. Bat all
kind of fruit trees require free eu't va

and afterward, if allowed to stand

Important.
The Vest Keted Pearl.
The Ute Mr. Hops of England owned
tbe mast noted pearl of modern times.
It weighed 1300 grains, and, although
not perfect io form, was or such enor
mous value that no maiket price was
ever put upon it. Tbe Russian royal
jewels comprise the most magnificent
collection of pearls in the world.
Pearls have been put to some strange
oses. . All have beard of Mare Antony
and Cleopatra drinking tbem dissolved
In vtnegsr. and Sir Thomas Gresbam
once swallowed one Io a glass of wine
la order that be might pay due tribute
to hls-nob'e queen ' In - drinking- ber
health. Lovers have used pearl dust
to dry the ink or their letters, and pow
dered pearls in the olden time were
supposed to possees remarkable mcdi

lie Wanted tc 4KesnaIn.t
A typical Missoarian from tbe back
counties appeared at tbe Tiemont
House recent) SDd askrd for a room.
He said bis iiame was John Wakel.
About 5 o'clock be approccbed tbe
clerk's dek snd Baid :
"Guess I'll remain, 'cause I'm kindi
er Ured." I
"Pleased to hare yon," rattled Ibe
cleik. What's jour name?"
"Wakely."
OX jes ; giye you No. 5G1. front
room, witn bain, soutnern exposure.
You can get dinner at 6."
Tbe fellow stood like a bronz) statue
for a few moments, and tben took a
ebalr opposite tbe counter. At C
o'clock adotber cleik came on watcb,
and Wakely went to bim. saying:
My name's Wakely, Guess I'll re
main."
4,Thaok you, Mr. Wakely ; let's see ;
551 ; best room ou tbat floor, if cot in
tbe bouse. Just make youiself at
boma bere.
Tbe man seemed dumfounded at
something and be returned to a is chair.
directly opposite tba regis' er. When
tbe nigbt cleik appeared at 11 o'clock.
tbe Missouriaz almost ran to tbe coun
ter.
"I'm glad tbey got a Dew boy." be
saip. "I'm wbat tbey call 561, .nd I
want te remain. Do von understand ?"
"Certainly, Mr. Wakely. I'm going
to eat my luncheon, now, but if I c n
do anything for you after that, don't
hesitate to call me. Be pleased to sen
you. sir."
Tbe strange guest, after glaring at
tbe clerk, returned lo bis chair, where
be did not move until 2 A. m. Tben be
was disturbed by a couple of late bois
terous traveling men.
"We've tad enoagb fun," spoke one
of tbe drummers. We might as well
retire, and "
Here the man from Mi-souri jmped
two feet in tbe air, yelling out to the
clerk :
"Ralire I Tnal'a the blamed word
I've been trying to say since yesterday
mon, I guess I'u retire."
Explosives as Medicine.
There is, for example, gun cotton, or;
as we call it, pyroxylin. It is twice s
powerful as gunpowder, but very much
inferior to dynamite or nitro-glycerine.
Dissolved in ether it makes tbat won
derful compound we call collodion. In
th!s shape it is employed to protect rw
or Injured surfaces. It dries rapidly,
in fact, almost as fast as it is employtd,
and leaves behind a fine, elastic artifi
cial skin, which is air and water pioef
against microbes and disease germs.
Mixed with eantharides, collodian
makes tbe best blistering piaster known
to science- Mixed witbtsnoiuor tan
nic acid It snakes a wonderful remedy
for stopping the flaw of blood from
wonnds. In cases of scalding or burn
ing collodion enables the profession to
cover the exposed flesh in a manner nev
er before possible. No secretion ef tie
human body aCets it. nor, on the other
band, does it exert ary unpleasant or
objectionable iLfluence upon tbe sys
tem. But of even greater value is nido
glycerine. When used in medicine It
is largely diluted, one pari being mixed
with 100 parts of alcohol, and one dn p
of tbe resultant mixture is a dose. In
this form it Is an admiraola antidote in
cases of neuralgia of the bean aod
many cases of nervous disturbances o f
the human body. Thus it bas been
used and given wonderful relief In ner
uous asthma, hiccoughs, headaches and
similar disorders. It bas repeatedly
cut bbort an attack of chills and fever,
and so eminent an authority as Dr.
Roberts Bartbolow recommends it in
ertain forms of Brigbt's disease, and
also for tbat most miserable of eanbly
ailments, seasickness.

A Floating Island.
Sadawagb lake, a large-sized pond

iu uuiuigunui vi,, am una ui toe
most remarkable islands in tbe world
within its borders. Tbe island Is larger
than any farm In tbe neigbbotbcod,
containing over 150 acres. Its peculi
arities lie in tbe fact tbat ii daily shifts
its position, being first on tbe north,
then on .the south, and sgein on tbe
east or west borders of tbe lake. It is
known as "Tne Fioatiog Island," and
bas kept np its aberrant voyage since
time out or memory. It bas many trees
upon its sui face, soma of which are 20
to 30 feet in beigbt, besides an immense
thicket of cranberry bushes. It is rare
that a portion of the island breaks iff
and sinks to the bottom, and its stabil
ity bas made it a favorite resort for pic
Dickers and others seeking an outing.
Holes have been cut through tbe crust
and fish caught, much after the fashion
of catching tbem through tbe Ice in
winter time.
A Hybrid Cein.
I bave io my possession, says a news
paper writer, a coin wblcb is a "reak."
It is a United Sta'e half-dollar (silver)
btving aa eagle on eacb side. Of
course, it bears bo date, bat it was is
sued under the Coinage act or 1792. I
bave another, dated 1S27, which bears
tbe same eagle. One face of rbis coin
is like all others of its issue. Upon tbe
reverse, however, tbe easle and the let
tering; are indented and reversed, as
though stamped there by another coin.
My theory is that tbe coin aut jusc
previous to this one stuck to the die.
"eagle side up," and left its impression
upon tbe silver strip from whicb, as I
understand, .coins are cut. I can ac-
couDt for tbe freak in so other way. It
must bave bae a overlooked at tbe mint,
aod thus got into circulation. It is of
full weight, and standard silver.

Tba dishes are placed in racks, bich
bold tbem so snug tbey cannot slip or

crank, and a spray of scalding-hot watrr
is forced down, whicb carries off all tbe
grease and refuse frosa tbs plates.
When tbe rack comes out at tbe other
end of the machine tbe attendant sets it
aside and in a few minutes tbe water
dries and the dishes acquire a beautiful
