WORSHIP OF A HERO.
The Konuth Mrmrnto That Whm Swurixl
by the A Icon hll.lren.
A reference to the welcome which
Emerson pave Kossuth reminds a Bos
ton Transcript writer of a story that
Louisa M. A loot t used to tell. The Al
cott children, says the writer, were al
ways hero worshipers. They had
heard from their brave, great-hearted
mother the story of Kossuth's work
and Kossuth's country, and finally they
were taken to hear him speak. Thev
caiue home thrilled with the inspira
tion of it. and then lamented bitterly
that they had secured no relic of the
great patriot, however insigaificaut,
which they could enshrine and wor
ship, as their fashion was. But Anna
the pentle, timid Mep of later time
drew, exultantly and blushinply, a
plass poblet from W-neath her cloak,
and whispered: He drank from it!"
"She had rushed in," sai.l Miss Alcott.
'where we other vandals feared to
tread. Vhile the father was soarinp
wit! Kossuth into the heroic empyrean,
and we all stood round, ameninp so to
speak, Anna had stolen close to the
desk, and whipped the poblet under
her cloak. We built a little shrine for
it, and hunp it on our chamber wall."

Many jints of interest artr broup-ht

nal of the way in which arM iiie is ol
taimil from one of the most famous
nines in Knj-Iaml. the Devon t'reat

.ne-!i:':lf t fourteen per cent, of arsen
ic and tiie rest of earthy matter.
A1U r l inr eiu-hed this is sorted by
rirlr-,.f from thirtei'ii to sixti-en years
of a re. Jt i- then washed and "ji.'.ired"
r sifted and passed on t the first eal
ei:nr. wikto isbtirn-d with low class
co.:l. and iriluees ""arsenic sinit" so
mixed wilh snioUe sNit from the coal
as to K- a frray color.
The arsenic and soot, deposited in
combination in the chimney or con
denser, are s-rajx-.'. out and taken to
the s-c !!il calciner for puritieation.
Thi calcin.-rs consist of revolvin-r iron
(iriuns. throujrh which a tire of anthra
cite coal is earrietl on rotating iron
farnaces kept red hot. As the arsenic
soot is subjected to the inllueiice of this
heat t he arsenic, is sublimed and con
densed. This operati. n has to lie care
fully watched, an I if the workm.'ii
burn the arsenic bailly they have to
pay f ir it. Three men in four weeks
will nrike one liun.lre.l tons of arsenic.
Th,
v in whk-h the arsenic is
condetisi-.l is a mile lono-- It is carried
to an incline up a hill, with iron doors
in the side. As the. hot blast passes
' upwards it deposits a crust of arsenic
ery.-tal.-. on the brickwork all around to
a depth of from two to three inches,
and minute dn-t of crystals fall to the
ll.xir. The smoke has then to pass into
an upright chimney one hundred and
twciity-:ive feet hih. but just ln-fore
doino- so it has t traverse a sh ver of
water, which catches what remains of
the arsenic, not hi n;? but sulphurous
acid In-iuo-allowed t. escape.
The arsenic is liable to produce sores
if permitted to lodye in wrinkles and
folds i. f the llesli. or almut the mouth
and nost rils. As a rule, however, this
only happens when there is careless
ness as to personal cleanliness, and the
arsenic workers simply have to wash
themselves thoroughly every day on
returning fmni work. Otherwise the
work is considered healthful. It pre
vents all ec.cma. and the f tunes of sul
phuric acid, as well as the arsenical
lust, are fatal to o-crms of disease.
Most workmen remain at the works for
i numlK-r of years without sutferinr.
but occasionally the symptoms of ar
senical poisoning-, loss of appetite, nau
sea, frontal hea lache and anaemia de
clare themselves. When this takes
place tin- work has to lc o-jven up en
tirely. The orcatcst danger to which
the workmen are exposed is met when
it is necessary f r an v ntirixise to enter
the upriirht shaft. The effect on the
eyes is most painful and a further cu
rious evidence of t!i virulence of the
pervailiiiir atmosphere lx-conu-s mani

lined with flannel, anil the sulphuric
acid fumes completely dest r y the linen
in a few moment.-, leavino' the tlatiind
intact, so that the men ro into the
shaft in linen and come out in wool.
Fortunately, it is seldom necessary to
enter th- shaft, or o-reat loss of sirht
would ensue.
NERVOUSNESS IN AMERICA.
Ir. MibrlM-ll My It I the Characteristic
Hisr-a44- of th- Nation.
lr. S. Wi-ir Mitchell considers it
prov-d beyond any dispute that nerv
ousness is the characteristic malady of
the American nation, jrrowino- upon
them in a frightfully accelerated ratio
every year, and threatening them with
disaster-eat no distant date which tin
mind shrinks from contemplating', says
a writer in Mo! "lure" Mairazine. The
numlK-rof deaths from this cause is al
ready appalling and is steadily and
rapid l" increasing. In some of the
busy centers the tables of mortality
show that the proportion of nerve
deaths has multiplied more than twen
ty times in the last forty years, and
that now the nerve-deal lis number
more than one-fourth of all the deaths
recorded. What is most sh-H-kinr in
these returns, this fearful loss of life
occurs mainly amono- you no- people of
lwith sexes.
This means that the Americans are
fast Wconiino- a very short-lived peo
ple; an iiii.ii ii iney were shut ill on
themselves for only a few years, with
out any influx of vitality by immigra
tion, the publication of the census
wouhS send a panr of horror and alarm
thrn'isrhout the land.
Wnat is the cause of this? Dr. Mitch
ell is clearly of opinion that the first
and most potent cause is the climate.
How or why the climate of Ann rica
produces the effect that it docs has
never been explained. Dr. Mitchell
says the operation of climatic condi
tions in relation to health in this coun
try is utterly mysterious: but lie is
quite persuaded that the development
of a nervous temperament is one of the
race changes which are also jrivino- the
Americans facial. vocal anil other jH'fiil
iarities derived from none of t heir a n
cestral stocks. Some scientific ol
scrvers have aflirmed that there is an
'electric" quality in the climate here
which operates powerfully on the
nerves, but it is not clear what they
mean by that; and Dr. Mitchell, who
has probably iriven the subject more
attention than anybody else, does not
consider the evidence of this electric
agency sutlicicnt to found a theory.
What is certain is that people cominjr
largely from the phleo-mat ie races un
dergo a chano-e of tcmcr:iiiicnt here
and Income excitable, emotional and
irritable in a decree that is unknown
in any other part of the world. An
other plainly recognized effect of the
American climate is that it makes the
strain of either mental or physical
lalnir much more severe than it is else
where. SPROUTS OF EXPERIENCE.

SACRED MONKEYS.
DlnlnrhADK of tti Adjunc-ta to the Itrmh
min AVntsihip.
In ce rtain parts of India monkeys are
n'jr;iriU-l as oVjoets of worship. In
KiMiiinisot-noes of Seventy ears' Life,
Travfl and Adventure." the author was
al-out to eiiUr the court of a larjre
monkey temple at Xuddea, when the
o1iieiatinr lirchmin said: "Xo ix-rson
must visit the eourt of iluniman" the
monkey tfod "with his fchoes 4n."
Aftt-r some di-ieussion. however, the
loint was yielsled. the party entering
with.i.it rem:vin-- their shoes. OI an
otlu r -easion h writes:
In pasMu;' ui the eouutry. when near
to Nud.U a". I ha ppenod t i stroll into a
Kimlroo tojH-. r junirlo. when the lxiat
had put to for the ni'ht. I had n t a.l
vaneed fur K-f. re I heard a terrible np
n r.r all around, anil was not a little
alarmed, on looking up. to ln-hohl a
whole rrmy of the largest monkeys
makin-; towards me from all quarters.
S..iiu jumped on the pround Ik-fore
me. others swun;r by the laiiilo.s iver
my head, and many closed up the path
in my rear. Several ft'iuales had youiir
ones elii'.jritifr to them, but this did not
seem to render them less afrile than
the otlu rs. A few of the largest, and
apparently the oldest, chattered for
al. ut h ;lf a minute t. .-.'ether; then the
win le trilK- responded, while all closetl
ii: 11 m tt me.
What to lo I knew not. However, I
hallooed as loudly as 1 could to make
my people hear, and to my jrreat com
fort the monkeys retreated a few paces
every time I did so. This encouraged
me to persevere, but I perceived that
when I l-ejran to retreat they closed
upon me a.'jin. without lcin; affected
by my noise.
Once more I stoHl still and pave a
tremendous shout, when back they
went apain. I pained full twenty
yards this time lcfore they came
jumpiiip around; and just as I was
alout to rejH-at the call, my hojics
wi n- raised by lK-holdinp a jXM.r. de
crepit old woman some hobblinp
throtiph the midst of them.
She shook two or three of them by
t he paws as she passed; but no sooner
had she eotiie within heariiiir than slu-
oh-ii-I ii m ni me a torrent of abuse for
disturbing the ssiered animals in their
ret irement. She motioned me, with
almost frantic pesttires. to depart
rpiickly. and her tonpue never rra-x-il
till I was rpiite out of hcariiip.
1 was not loiip in fultillinp her om
inaud.s. as the monkeys all seemed im
plicitly to olx-y her biddinp. and made
a way for my retreat. When I rpiilteil
the jimple I met my servant, who said
he w as cominp to tell me not to dis
til rl . t he monkeys, as lliiniiuan owned
that lamtoo prove. The old woman,
"it apH-arel. was employed by the
llrahniiiis to pive the monkeys food
everv day; ln-side which they were
worshicl by all the jieople in the
country round, who broupht otTcrinps
of rice and sweetmeats to them contin

SPIDER ON THE WIRES.
liit-rriitlon of Ti-la-irtaphlc- Commun-fA-tit.ll
I.y Tlx-ir tVrlm.
Two of t he main throitph wires lie
tweeti New York and Itostoti were re
cently ri-jMirti-d "in trouble" -ast of
X'W London, says the New York Sim.
They positively r-fus-l to work at all
i:i th- morn'mp. but from about eleven
o'clock in tin forenoon until eleven
o'clock at niplit they were found to l
all ripht. Krotn this eciiliarity they
came to lie known as "the twelve-hour
wires." and Lineman Wil liams was di
rected to lind out what the matter was
with them. lie located "the trouble"
as In-inp In-twi-eii Xcank and l'poii
nock Lridpe. and thi-ti walked back and
forth and forth and back alonp the
rails, with his eyes sca-iiiinp the row
of tcletrraph p.h-s and wires in a rain
search f . -r the misi-hievous cross. lie
kept up th- hunt for two or three days,
and tinally. just as he had pivcti up in
despair, and was swinpinp himself on
to a train to po h:m.. he cau 'lil sipiit
of a larpe cobweb in the shallow of a
bipilni tree, which was 1-oiitid from
one of the erratic wires to the other.
Williams came back to the cobweb the
next inorninp and eyed it caperlj. lie
was not loiip in cliuibinp the jile near
est to it. and then he saw that the web
was the really piantie product of
several spiders, iis hip white surface
tlappinp idly to and fro ln-tween the
two wires which it connected. Its face
was liespatiplcd with Lip perns if dew:
in fact, tin' condition was the same as
if tin" two wires had lecil connected
with a sheet of muslin saturated with
water. Nothinp will "cross" and "kill"
two electrically charped wires more
effectually than a wet substance of this
kind coiiTiectinp them. When the sun
dried the dew off tin cobweb the
"cross" tlisapp4ared. and lid not conic
back a pa in until a rainstorm came or
tin- next dew fell. Wilbams pathercd
the cobweb and stuffed it in his coat
pocket. It made a larpe handful.
Then-was no more trouble with the
wires after that. When the lineman
rcj-ortcd the matter to the eastern chief
of the company at ISoston he pot
lauphed at for his pains, but on the
followinp day he told his adventure
with the cobweb to Superintendent
Fred Fairchild, of the New Haven of
iice. an expert electrician. who
promptly declared that it was the colt
web which crossed the wire and at
once sat down to a telcpraph machine
and talked for half an hour with the
llostoti chief. 'xplaininp to him where
he was in -rror in assuminp a cobweb
could not "cross" a telcpraph wire.

It is possible for any Chinaman. 4r
even any Chinese woman, to lieeome a
deity by payinp for the honor. A few
years apo a rich and devout Chinese
holy died in Soochoo. Her friends
thoupht that an aix.theosis was no'
more than her due. and 4-ouimu nieated
with the priests, who interviewed the
pods on the subject, and tliscovercd
that the pod of the left little toenail
had no wife. The old lady was accord
inply married to his pod si ii p. and is
now enrolled as the "poddess 4.f the
left little toenail." The honor cost the
old lady's estate over live thousand
dollars.
Some Onw rrmturni.
Not only do certain animals adopt
the i-olor of thinps alrout them, but
chanpe their habits and the re4.uire
lncnts of their nervous system. Thus
a Malay bntterlly is well known, which
imitates the appearance of a dead leaf
on a twip, even to the extent of a
transparent spot on its winps. to rep
resent the hole nibbled by insects. A
certain spider, a class of careful
workers, spins a slovenly web, so that
its own InmIv may have a proper suf
romidinp for imitatinp particles blown
in by the wind. Certain fishes stand
Hpripht in the water to iep.Vsent
rushes.

instead 4f lc:np rainless, showers make

Constipation
Demands prompt treatment. The re
ulta of neglect may lm serious. Avoid
all harsh and tlra.stic purgatives, the
tendency 4f which is to weaken the
bowels. The best rrmeily is Ayer'i
Pills. Being purely vegetable, their
action is prompt and their effect always
liencticial. Thry aro an admirable
Liver and After-dinner pill, and every
where c-ndorsed by the profession.
" Ayer's Till- are hiirhly an.l tiniver

practice." lr. I.E. i'ow h-r, Iiridge

" I can recommend Ayer Bills abiire
all others, having hii proved tlieir
value as a cathartic fur mvsclf and
family." J. T. lU-.ss, Lc-ithsville, 1'a.
"For several years Ayer's Tills have
been used iu uiy family. We liud them
an
Effective Remedy
for constipation and indigestion, and
are never without them in the house."
Moj-s Greuicr, Lowell, Mass.
"' I have used Ayer's Bills, for liver
troubles anl indices! ion. during many
years, and have always fouud tliciii
prompt and 4-t)ici-nt in their action."
L. Smith, L'tica, N. Y.
"I suffereil from constipation which
assumed such au i l.stmate form that I
feared it would cans,) a stoppage of the
