"Yes there are some droll things tvery once in a while, but wo get so used to them tliat we don't mind any thing about them. I suppose you have he.ird that story about the man who saw an operator working an old Morso pttpcr instrument, and calbd his girl up to see 'this fellow make paper collars.'" "How do you manage t:) keep your ear on one instrument w hoa there are twenty or thirty going in tho same roomV "There Is no difficulty in that," was the reply. "It is as easy as it is for you to keep the run of a friend's conversa tion w hen there are other persons talk ing in tha room." " Hut no two voices are alike," hinted the reporter, dubiously. " So two instruments sound alike to an operator, and there is no more diffi culty in distinguishing the click of your own instrument in a roomful than in distinguishing the familiar tones of a brother's voice." " Can you tell who is sending at tho other end?" " We can easily detect a friendly hand, although I don't know as I could make you understand how." "Do you har anything that goes over the wires?'' " We could if we cared to, but that gets to be a very old story. AVo only listen for our call, wluVh is repeated till we answer, and then the message Is sent." " I suppose you have some sad ex periences when you receive messages of death or sickness." " Well, hardly. If we were affected by such t hings "we would be in a per petual state of grief. You don't no tice them at all. "Why, once I received a message addressed to me announcing that I had become a father, but I had become so used to such things I mean to receiving such messages that I never noticed to whom it was ad drassed, and sent It down to the count ing room with a bundle of other dis patches I had received at the same time," " Speaking of curious experiences," chimed in another operator who had been listening to the convert-at:.on, "speaking of curious experiences, I remember when I was working nights at a little station on the Chicago, Bur lington and Quincy road. About 1 o'clock one cold, sle-'ty morning the circuit was broken off for a little while, and then I heard the word h-e-l-p come over the line several times. This was repeated at intervals for some minutes. I was decidedly fright ened, but nothing could be done till daylight After the break had been located, men were sent along the line to repair the wire, and ai soon as the instrument began to work w e received word that the break wa3 at the bridge, and that Charles Adams, the day ope rator, had been found there dead with both his legs cut off. "We afterward learned that Charlie had been to a dance in a neighboring town, and had fallen, unseen, lrom the freight train as it crossed the bridge, and had been run over. With his little remaining strength he had crawled to the edge of the bridge and broken the wire, lie had telegraphed the word 'help' by , touching the ends of the wire together." . Boston Qlobe. Human Obesity. "We recorded on Saturday the death of the "fattest woman in the world," a member and special curiosity of Nathan's Cleveland circus.in America, who appears to have been smothered in her bed. Miss Conley, though the most enormous of her sex, weighing as she did 4'J7 pounds, fell far short of that prodigy of human bulk, the fa mous Daniel Lambert,who died in ISO'J, during Stamford fair, at the age of forty. Lambert weighed no less than fifty -two stone eleven pounds, ihat is '73'J pounds, or close upon half as much again as the American Jady. Daniel Lambert's coffin with his body coidd not be brought down the stairs of the house in which he died, and the wall at tho sides of the window had to be broken away to provide an exit. He was five feet eleven inches in height, measured nine feet four inches round 'the body and three feet uie inch round the leg. He never drank any beverage but water, and slept less than eight hours per day. The "Claimant "at his stoutest weighed twenty-six stone, or les than half the weight of Daniel Lambert. London '1 imet: Two Remarkable Trees. Two remarkable trees of Central Africa have lie;n described by the Spanish traveler, Abargues do Sosten. One of these, the Acacia mimosa, grows luxuriantly in the mountainous regions, sending out its branches from the ground, much in the same way as the ribs of an umbrella wh"n extended S read out from the handle. To com pleters resemblance to an umbrella of gigantic sio the scanty leaves at the top are closely interwoven, and the whole forms a natural protection from the sun's rays of no mean importance to the weary explorer a hs mks re t in the beat of the day. Many animals, no doubt, also avail theins' Ives of its grateful bhelter. Its height is about ten feet. The oth.-r treo is still more curious. Its scientilic name is Uaobab diina. This tree has a huge, smooth, dark-brown trunk, hollow In the center. Into this cavity it absorbs during the rainy season a store of water sufficient to last for many months. In short, it seems to be a kind of cistern tree. The br. inches are thick, short and bent in wn !. Few leave are produced, and ses- are soon dried up, and, falling the branches look gaunt enough. Cyclones of l it p. Every half mile or so brings to the sight of tho (loafing voyager on tho Au Sable, writes a Michigan correspondent of tho New loik livening 1 o nn open space in tho forest many acres in extent. There are thick, blackened tree trunks on tho ground protruding in all directions from their sliroud of green underbrush. A more Impressive spectacle are tho dead pino troes still standing in these or. en areas, black around the roots, but reaching, straight as a dart, for a hundred feet in air. These are tho gaunt skeletons of what were once splendid lning pines, now killed by tho forest fires which period!- illv sweep through tho jmemgan woodlands dining drought. Not far below the mouth of the Au Sable, and on the other s';do of tho Saginaw Hay, is the region where the deadly fires of two-years ago devastated tho wood lands" so terribly, causing the loss of hundred of lives and millions of dol lars' worth of property. A well-informed resident of iviichigan, who lives but a few miles from tho scene of that horror, has described it to me, not as a burning forest in .tho ordinary sense, but a cyclone of flame, marked in char acters of firo by many of the phenom ena of wild torna Iocs. In some way the forces generate I a powerful vol ume of air, tilled with gases in com bustion, anl penetrated with almost supernatural heat. It was a sort ol earthly counterpart of those torna loes of fiery gas which men or science teu us sweep over the incandescent en-! velope of the sun. "Wherever it touched' tho groun 1 this flaming destroyer con sume.!. Woods, fences, houses, cattle' and human beings wero not merely burned, but almost vaporized.

The; whirlwind of heat, like a cyclone of wind, sometimes bounded from the earth only to des "end again and lick up the houses and forests. It leaped open fields and rivers in an instant, converting tho surface waters into steam, and finally stopped its career ot destruction, not because of lack of fuel, but because its strange, fiery energy was in some occult way ex hausted. As proving its peculiar cy clonic quality, there is a well authen ticated story of a farmer who hal left his pantaloons in the middle of a ten acre lot. In the pockets were five trado dollars, and when he returned after the swift passage of the flaming whirhvinl ho found only a lump of melted silver where had left the coins. Looking upon the enormous mass of pine trees and vegetation wnicn line the A Urisable, conceiving their inflam mabl e condition during the drought, and then glancing anew at the open burne 1 spaces, with their huge, charred tree trunks, one could easily imagine th at the stories about the Michigan forest fires of 1381 were neither fanci ful nor exaggerated. The Causes of Mushing. The physiology of blushing has long presented a difficult problem to solve. Many unsatisfactory explanations have been given of the causes of that in teresting phenomenon. The British Mtdka', Journal lately received an inquiry as to the measures to be taken for the cure of a chronic tendency to blush, and one of its correspondents takes up the matter in a very prac tical way. Among other causes of blushing he gives prominence " to the wearing of too thick underclothing and especially of too thick socks." He a Ids that long-sleeved woolen sacks or jerseys are often a cause of blushing, and, in fact, warm clothing in general. He does not fail to remark that the blusher must choose in this matter be tween the risk of rheumatism and the annoyance of blushing. As collateral evidence in support of his views he says : "An aunt of mine had habitual ly a red nose from this cause alone, which disappeared whn she took to thinner stockings. ' Regarding tho matter from a social standpoint, tho writer says: "The best plan for an habitual blusher is to laugh and be very gushing, as, for in stance, on meeting an acquaintance in the street, when ho colors up ; and he will feel more at his ease than if he looks sheepish and reserved." An obvious cause for blus'dng is oversensitivenoss and self-consciousness, which will we ir away as the person becomes used t so. My aid strengthens his character by adopting wise principles of thought and action. The physiological explanation of blush ing given by the writer just quoted is that it is duo to p u a'.ysis of tha sym pathetic circles of nerves surrounding the, arteries, which, not contracting properly, allow a freer flow of blood to the surface. As (Julck as liglilniu?. "As quick as lightning '' is a phrase well chosen to illustrate an ini oneeiv ahle rapidity, but of th se wh use the exprewon probably very few appre cia'e its full meaning, for Sir Charles Wheats. one has s'lown tha' a Hash of lightning lasts le: s than a millionth part of a s con 1.

On account of the slowr.e s of our perce; tion we never see the light at its real intensity. 1'rot'essor Tait ha suggest el tl a; the fall brilliancy must be in some degree comparable wit li the sun, as Wheat stone's an I swan's data prove t .at the apparent brightness of the land scape as bt up by a lightning Hash is less than one-hundred-thousandth, part of what it would be were the lightning perm ment. The apparent brightness, it should be me itioned, was shown by Swan to diniini h in about the ratio borne by the length of time required for lutojerceivy it. select simsGs. A man breathes about eighteen times a minute, and uses 3,000 cublo feet of air per hour. Inclosing wast.) lands nnd commons, in ordor to promote agriculture, first began in England In 1517, and caused a rebellion. English sparrows were first intro duced into this country in 1853 by a gentleman named Dubois in a garden in l'ortland, Maine. Tho ostriches in California have ex ploded tho old story that tho female covers up her eggs nnd leaves thim to be hatched out by the hot sun. The female sits on the eggs in tho daytime and tho male assumes that duty at night. When fans were invented no man can tell. There can bo no doubt, how ever, of thoir existence 3,000 years ago, for representations of these familiar articles havo been discovered on the tomb i at Thebes. Fans, therefore, are tho oldest articles in use by ladies, ex cept their tongues. Uarnum says that ho lost $130,000 in h s vain attempt to bring two Sia mese white elephants to this country. His agent bought tho luasts through the connivance of a priest, and after tho king had indignantly refused to sanction such a sacrilegious sale, but t ley died on being taken aboard a ship, and tho old showman believes that they were poisoned. Tho Japanese believe that ammon ifies are petrified snake?. Fossil brachiopods (lamp-shells) are called "stone swallows," and are said to come to life and fly from thoir hiding-places at the approach of wind and rain, changing again to stones on tho ret.irn to fair weather. Fossil fish appear and disappear at pleasure. Their ap pearance is prognostic of a plentiful harvest and prosperous times. The stones if burned have a decidedly fishy smell. Minneapolis is reported to ship an nually, beyond her local consumption, l,boO,S70 barrels of Hour. "These," says the Tribune statistician, if piled one above the other, end to end, would reach 780 miles. The flour would make about 493,255,000 loaves of bread, tho ordinary size of bakers' loaves. These, piled in a pyramid, would inake, roughly calculated, a square pyramid with a base 300 feet square and with a height of nearly 1,000 feet." From the earliest times there have been laws in England enforcing a proper respect for Sunday. The most ancient of these, which is still pro served, was made by Alfred tho Great, in the ninth century. The second dates from tho time of Henry VI. Another was passed under James I. The fourth, which is now the Jaw of England, was made by the parliament of Charles II. This latter law has been made tho model of Sunday laws in a'l our States except Louisiana; and the decisions made under it now form a part of our common law. Firecrackers, 6ays Nature, play a large part in the superst t'ous observ ances of the ordinary Ch nese. It is a popular belief that the evil spirits everywhere inhabiting tho air are dis persed by crackling noises attended by fire and smoke. Accordingly, fire crackers are used on all special occa sions to frighten away tho demons who are tormenting a sick person, or who crowd around the people ct the be ginning of the new year. Bamboo, which emits, when burning, a crack ling sound, is also used lor the sums purpose. Out-Trotted by a Calf. Colonel Charles Burns appeared on th? race course at Evansville, lnd.,ona day recently, leading a very thin calf. It was a dusky brindle in color, hair long and full of cockle burrs, while its diagonal tail was weighted with tha same prickly nuisances. It was an ungainly creature and looked half starved, but when the colonel said it could trot the crowd .laughed. Fin ally, after much banter, he wagered $ 100 that his cloven-hoofed pet could outstrip any horse n the grounds. Mr. Jay Rowland promptly accepted and produced his handsomo gel ling "Day light," who has a record of 2:20. It was agreed that the calf should go under saddle, while the horse trotted in harness. They were led out on the track. Twenty times the calf sleepily loped up for th word, but at the neat trial they cams under the wire neck and ne k, and were sent off. Instantly the calf seemed to lose four inches in height, and pushed oil, with tail erect, like a flash of light. At the quarter pole tha horse forged two lengths ahead, but at Ithe upper turn the calf settled into a shambling sort of trot, bellowing at every step, all the while gradually decreasing the distance between itself and the gelding. The nearer it ap proached the horse the more nervous the equine became, until when the calf reached his sulky wheel the gelding bolted. Before the gelding could be controlled Burns' calf had a hundred yards lead, and all ellorts of the horse to overtake his split-hoofed competitor were unavailing, the calf landing at the wire, head and tail up, 200 yards ahead, in 2:29. As soon as tho disappointment and the mortification of the losers bad somewhat worn off, the colonel wa3 besieged by them with offers to pur chase, one going as high as $1,100. The colonel, however, refused all oilers. The Kaw Indians in the Indian Ter ritory are disappearing with strange rapidity.
