The keen and sudden retort upon
the boastful blacksmith tickled the
fancy of the bystanders, who greeted
it with a loud laugh, and a shout of
"Well said, Hans Holbein!"
"Hans Holbein?" cchced the smith,
turning around angrily at this open
insult to his trade for in those days
(as may be seen by the example of
Quentin Matsys of Antwerp) a skilled
ironworker ranked with sculptors and
painters, and not unfrequently stood
higher than either; "of a truth he
may well think highly of painting,
since he getteth his bread by it. but,
hark ye, Master Holbein; men call
thee a great painter, and I doubt not
but what thou callest thyself so, too.
1 lost thou think, now, that with all
thy skill thou canst produce any
thing surpassing the best that I
can do?"
"I venture to believe that I can,"
answered the great artist, with a
quiet smile.
"So be it, then," icioincd the
blacksmith, deflantly. "We will each
of us do our best, and this day month
will we meet on this spot to try
which of u two is the better man.
Sav I well, comrades?"
The group of listener which had
by this time swelled into a pretty
large crowd unanimously agreed that
the match was a fair one; and as Hol
bein turned to depart, the stalwart
blacksmith nodded his huge head
after him defiantly, with the air of a
man who had settled the matter once
for all.
For the next few weeks the chal

tion, and the less the townsneoola
knew, the more they Imagined. All
sorts of rumors, each more amazing
than the other, were in circulation
about the masterpiece upon which
the blacksmith was engaged. Somq
asserted that he was making an iron
weathercock which would flap its'
wings and crow at sunrise Just like
the real bird. Others were equally

but there was another thing that!
puzzled the good folk of the town
quite as much as the mysterious ini
dustry of the blacksmith, and that
was the mysterious idleness of Ilia
rival, Hans Hoibcln. While one ol
tho two competitors seemed to b

was to be secn about the streets of
the town, playing dice, drinking
wine, chattering with his friends, or
lounging about tha market place.
Such extraordinary conduct nat
urally perplexed the honest citizens
not a little and they accounted for it,
in two very different ways. The
friend of Hans Holbein stcutly
maintained that he felt, himself co
certain of winning the match as cot
to reiuire to trouble himself ia any
way about a matter which was prac
tically decided already. Those who
favored the blacksmith, on the other
band, took an exactly opposite view
nf the case, and vowed that the
painter knew that he had no chance
of winning, and intended, when the
time came, to give up the contost
without making any effort at all.
As the appoiated ds.y drew near,
the whole city was in a ferment. Its
cutire population seemed to be di
vided into two contending factions
of Holbetoitrss An4 fcrciltjlcs; en.

every street over the still undecided
matter. Women scolded one another,:
and boys punched each other's beads,'
bn the same knotty question which
was setting their husbands and
fathers by the ears in the tavern or
the market place; and more than one)
young lady, who sympathized very
strongly with one party, sent her
lover about his business because he
had the impudence to side with the
other.
At last the long-expected day ar
rived. A full hour at least befora
the time fixed for the trial, the mar
kct place was crowded from siae to
side; and the very air seemed to
tremble with the shout that went up
uttered by Smithites and Holbein
ites alike as the stalwart figure of
the blacksmith was seen forcing its
Way through the throng, carrying in
his hands something closely wrapped
in a cloak, which must of course be
the masterpiece of art which he was
about to exhibit to them.

painter was wont to have his lunch.
Here he found Master Hans sitting
down to his bread and cheese and
beer as coolly as if the smith and hi?
challenge had never existed.
"Hans the blacksmith! the chal
lenge!" gasped the messenger, burst
ing headlong into the room.
"Ah! very true," said Holbein,
composedly. "Faith, I had quite
forgotten that; and, in truth, I doubti
much if I have ever thought of it
since the day it hapwened."
"Never thought of it?" yelled tLi.
other, who had Iain a heavy wager oa
Holbein's success. "Do you mean tci
sav you have got nothing ready af
all?"
The painter rose slowly to his feet,
and eyed his companion with a looU
which seemed to make the reproach
ful words go backward down tho lat
ter's throat.
"Care thou not for that," said he
coldly; "this bragging smith may bo
a clever fellow in his way, but he ha
reckoned without his host if he thinks
to beat Hans Holbein. Conic and see!"
When the great artist's well-known
figure was seen coming round tin!
corner of the crowded square, a dead
hush of cxjioctation fell over the ex:
cited throng, in the midst of which
Holbein's voice was heard by all.
"Worthy friends, it grieves inc that
1 1 should have forgotten this day's
j business, and kept such a worshipful
'company waiting thus. but. good
Master Smith yonder wishes to sec
what I can do; let him look hero!''
And, taking a piece of chalk from
his pocket, he drew a circle with a
single turn of his hand on one of th
tables in front of the tavern, inserted
a point for its center, and said
quietly
) "bring a pair of compasse?, ail!.'
measure that."
It was done and both circle and
point were found to be as correct as
jf drawn with the best mathematica'
Instruments.
There was momentary silence of
blank amazement, and then the air
rang with cheers of the Holbeioitcs,
while the sturdy blacksmith himself
stepped forward, and frankly holding
out his hand theBtong brown hau l
that had wrought so many fuii.oii-1
works to the man whom he had
j challenged, said, with unfeined
heartiness
"Master Holbein, there is no gain,
raying it thou art the better man.
With pains and practice, thou
might'st perchance make my iron
dog; buM. though I should labor on it
to the end of days, could never draw
this circle of thine."
Hans Holbein warmly grasped the
offered hand, and the two rival artists
were fast friends from that day forth.

TliEATMEHT OF FELLED TTJOSBB. .
In an Agricultural Department bulled
tin occurs this advice;
Always remove the bark from felled,
timber to aid seasoning, but not from
the standing tree.
1 Never allow the log to lie directly oi
the moist soil.
If winter-felled, shape the timber U
size, within two weeks after felling ni
leave it placed on blocks not upon th
toil in the f crest; or; if thaped at
borne, place in a dry, airy not windy
poitioD, away from sun and rain.
H dried too rapidly, wood warps and
split?, the cracks collect water, and th
timber is then easily attacked and de
ttroyed by rot.
With large logs, checking may be
prevented by coating the ends with aom
iatty or oily substance, mixed with brief
dust.

from Many Ilia.
Says a writer In the California
Trnifc ftrnwer: The Natural Food
founded bv Dr. Densmore. of
jjew York;, was started In London
tn ara ua. with An Ideal TOO
gram of frolts and nuts as an all-
.ooslvelv. their usual meat rations
Bnould be continued at least once a
day.
The diet advocated only needs that
bread, potatoes and other starch focds
be thrown out, substituting fresh,
sweet fruits or partly dried if fresh
is scarce. Meat and fish, if plainly
cooked, can be used as before for a
time, until they can be replaced by
nuts, used by vegetarians. But the
latter o commonly use an Increased
quantity of grain or other starch
foods ns the result of renouncing
flesh, that their diet Is often less
wholesome than that of the unre
formeJ public who eat moderately cf
fish, Cesh, or fowl dally. Wh'le pure
blood ls the first and main requisite
for perfect health, either of mind or
body, that can only be maintained by
'pure and natural food.
The doctors are gradually but cer
tainly coming round to prescribing a
refocm in diet rather than drug?.
They are unab!e, however, to advo--.-itj.
a. fruit, diet for the well, yet be
cause they themselves, having been
brought "P on mixed feeding, cannot
consistently prescribe fruit and nuts,
or any other ideal diet. They live as
a m'.e like their patients, and they
know pretty well that their patients
are mostly too much the slaves of
habit and conventionality to adopt
raUlCul UJCisaui'ra "lieu viivw iv.uk
from their ailment
Among the physical advantages to
the Individual, the lruit diet pre
vents as well as cures disease, and
gives the highest health and the
longest life the constitution is capa
ble of, ln proportion as It ls taken
temperately or judiciously. It in
creases the strength because it Is so
readily assimilated, and the vitality
stamina, or nerve energy, is con
served for other purposes as needed.
To the general public, tho fruit
diet promises many other blesslngj
also. It Increases the opportunities
of living In tho open air and sun
shine. In decreases the need for
those occupations that have a debas
ing or a dangerous tendency, liko the
fisherman's, the butcher's, tho bak
er's, cook's, saloons and others car
ried on often underground. It gives
scops for the Intellectual training of
our youth in the observation of na
ture and her laws, also in training
the mind as to special details of the
pruning and propagating of new va
rieties and prevention of disease and
pests. It reduces tho anxieties for
securing a competency, as It simpli
fies our wants, showing the utter
madness of mere accumulation.
The fruit diet curbs ostentation
and luxury, and makes it possible for
rich and poor to feed more alike, and
share the same table. It affords a
clue for that complete self-reformation
which must be the forerunner of
any effective social regeneration of
the race. The tobacco habit, the sa
loons and the general dissipation and
deba.ichery that abound in city lire
would have nothing to feed on with
a pure diet, and could all be prevent
ed or bred out of the community. It
meets the needs of tho Increasing
population, because fruit trees In
their prime give far the heaviest re
turns per acre of human foorl. Fruit
trees also afford that natural forestry
that Is so Indispensable fur regulat
ing rainfall, c'.i n;:,j and other me
teorological conditions. Fruit grow
ing mitigates tho dullness of coun
try life by reducing the acreage of
ranches, whiln it prevents the crowd
ing tuto big cities, nnd the depopula
tion of rural districts Involved In ce
real and c.itt'e farming. It affords
! Iho beat nians of making an all
round, well-balanced man by giving
time for cultivating the mental and
' moral faculties, and also the taste for
literature, music, art, science, etc.
As such pure foods come Into
vogue, tho passions would be better
J controlled, nnd cruelty and war would
'become sooner Impossible. As wo
ceased to bo carnivorous, we should
, "let the tiger dio" within us, as the
poet says. Sensuality would bo kept
in check, crimes of violence wouid
greatly diminish, while diseaso mlht
be almost entirely prevented. Among
the ailments sDeedily remedied ars
all those affected by indigestion, snc'n
as liver and skin complaints in sum
mer; also constipation, piles and the
various nerve diseases.

SIX MILES A MINUTE.
An Earthqunks War" One Crossed the
I'acine Ocean In Twelve Hours.
People arc apt to indulge apprehen
sions about the movement of waves
of the ocean which are erratic, born
perhaps of illusionary influences.
Everyone has noticed the action of
the wind on a field of corn and seen
the undulations caused by its crossing
the field in a few seconds; but no one
supposes that a single stalk has left
its place. As with the corn wave,
says the Brooklyn Eagle, so with the
water wave, tho substance remains
rising and falling in the same place,
while it is only the form that moves.
The speed of this movement depends
on the speed of the wind. When a
gentle breeze is blowing the friction
between the atmosphere and the
water ls small, and only a slight rip
ple is produced; but should the veloc
ity of the wind increase the ripples
become waves or even billows, moun
tains of water, moving at a tremend
ous speed. The ripple or slow uni
dulation may move at a velocity vary
ing from three or four to eight or;
nine miles per hour, and, increasing;
in size to a wave of greater or less,
proportions, may have a speed of
from ten to fifteen or twenty miles
per hour. In a gale the rate increases
to twenty-five or thirty, and during
storms has been estimated at thirty,
thirty-five and even forty miles per
hour. This latter speed is exception
ally! great and far exceeds the average
Waves which have resulted from
earthquake shocks have traversed the
ocean at a speed which is almost in
creditable. For instance, the great
earthquake which occurred at
Samoda, in Japan, caused a wave
which traveled across the Pacific from
that country to San Francisco of
nearly 5,000 miles, in not much more
than twelve hours that is to sav, it
raced across the ocean at a rate of
about six and a halt miles per min
ute. The self-acting tide gauges at
San Francisco which recorded the
arrival of this great wave rendered
it quite certain that this was the
actual rate of progress. Then again,
the tidal wave which passes over the
ocean twice daily travels in places at
an enormous sp-c:l. It has been
estimated that if the seas of the
world consisted of one uniform sheet
of water the tidal wave would
traverse them at the rate of 1,000
miles per hour. As a matter of fact
it does proceed at something like half
this pace across the Pacific and At
lantic oceans. The intervention of
continents, islands, and shallows,
however, reduces the speed in places
to not more thad forty or fifty miles
per hour.
