HE FORGOT IT.
Condition Upon Which Field Agreed
to Acquire a Bad Memory.
"The Into Eugcno Field was noto
riously improvident, his chronic
'hardupnoss being a sort of byword
among his intimates," Bnid nn old
friend of tho poet recently. "But
he managed to get a good deal of
fun himself out of tho paucity of his
own resources.
"Once at one of those semipublic
functions held in a saloon, where
every man is a host who has the
price and every man. a guest who has
a thirst,' Field, ns usual, went broke.
There happened to bo a hanger on
in the crowd, one of those whose
considerable ambition i9 to say they
have shaken hands and touched
glasses with a celebrity. Calling
the poet to one side he said: 'Now
I hope you'll take no offense, but I
understood you to say you had run
short of money. If that is truo, I
would bo glad to obligo you with a
ten.'
"How dare you snapped Field,
affecting great indignation. 1 don't
even know your name.'
" Hcg your pardon a thousand
times,' responded the other, 'I
meant no offense, I assuro you. I
thought maybe you might be able to
use the money. Please forget it.'
"Field was silent for a moment
as if in deep thought and then slow
ly drawled:
"'Forget it I All right, I will,
on ono condition.'
" 'On what condition?'
" 'Ou condition that you make it
fifteen.' "New York Times.
A Strange Custom.
According to a Yorkshire (Eng
land) notion a newborn infant
should always be placed in the arms
of a maiden before it is touched by
any one else, and in some instances
its right hand is bound in a cloth
.jluring the first day of its existence
hi order that it may gather riches
when grown to manhood or woman
hood estate. In many parts of the
United States, Germany, France
and Holland, as well as throughout
the British isles, it is considered
very important that an infant
should "go up" before it goes down
in tho world. Thus, if a child is
born in the lower story of a house,
it is instantly bundlod up by one of
the old women and carried up
stairs; if tho event occurs in the
ippcr story, the same old woman is
expected to take tho child in her
arms and clamber upon tho top of
a table, bureau or even a chair
anything to get the little one up in
tho world.
A Story of Lincoln.
General- J ohn II. Littlefield, who
studied under Abraham Lincoln,
told this anecdote of him in Suc
cess: "All clients knew that, with
'Old Abe' as their lawyer, they
would win their case if it was fair;
if it was not, that it was a waste of
time to take it to him. After lis
tening Borne time ono day to a
would bo client's statement, with
his eyes on the ceiling, he swung
around in his chair and exclaimed:
'Well, you have a pretty good case
in technical law, but a pretty bad
one in equity and justice. You'll
havo to get some other fellow to
win this case for you. I couldn't
do it. All the time while talking
to that jury I'd bo thinking, "Lin
coln, you re a liar, and 1 believe 1
should forget myself and say it out
loud.' "
-An Invisible Alter Ego.
It is curious and interesting to
note that tho British Columbian
tribo of the Shanakons have a soul
belief which is an almost exact
counterpart of that cherished by the
old Israelites. They believe that
every being has its double or
shadow, thin, pale figure, seldom or
never seen by mortal eyes, which
after death descends to an abode
beneath the earth and there leads
a sad and gloomy existence. The
Israelites called this place eheol;
l ho bhanakons know it as eotea.
First Idua of Perpetual Motion,
Honecourt, a Flemish architect of
the thirteenth century, left a draw
ing of a wheel that was to solve the
problem of perpetual motion with
this memorandum: "Many a time
have bkillful workmen tried to con
trive a, wheel that shall turn of it
self. Hero is a way to make such
u one by an unoven number of mal
let or by quicksilver." But un
fortunately ho did not leave the
wheel. . From his time on seekers
after perpetual motion have been
numerous.

' TRAVELING IN SIBERIA.
The Kind of People One Meet In
Third Class Railway Cars.
All tho thira class cars on fco Si
berian railway are grimy; thero iiro
feet ions reserved for wctaflttf-aad
shildrcn. The woodwork Jfpirint
cd drab inside, but tficre is not a
vestige of cushion. I spent hours
among these emigrants. I find
them interesting. They are horri
bly dirty, and as they.ljke to have
the window closed, desmto tie tem
perature, the car? reek with odor.
They carry all their wortfly pos
sessions with them, .ome foul sleep
ing rugs and somo bunVv of aore
foul clothing. These are sprea.1 out
on the hard scats to make them a
little less hard.
Bread, tea and melons seem their
chief fare. Thero are great chunks
of sour bread, and at every halt
kettles are seized and a scramble is
made to the platform, where tho
local peasant women have steaming
samovars and sell a kettle of boiling
water for a halfpenny and a water
melon as big as your head for a
penny.
Besides bread eating and scatter
ing half of it on tho floor and
munching melons and making a
mess with the rind and splashing
tho water about when teamaking
there is tho constant smoking of
cigarettes. They are tiny, unsatis
fying thing?, half cardboard tube,
provide threo modest puffs and are
then to be thrown away. You
could 6inoko a hundred a day and
deserve no lecture on being a slave
to tobacco. Cor. London Jtews.
Fighting Owls.
Owls have a habit of dealing with
game they have killed that loads
somo observers to think that, like
dogs, they prefer fowls that have
not been too recently slain. One
of the birds will often leave a
chicken or rabbit for a day or two
before eating it. An old trapper
pays he has often had muskrat traps
roblcd by owls, only a part of the
rat being eaten.
When ho finds a trap ro, disturbed,
tho trapper leaves the rat where it
lies and sets another trap besiilo it.
In all probability the bird will re
turn the second night, in which ease
it will be more than likely to bo in
the trap when the owner comes next
morning. An owl in a trap will of
fer to fight, and, if it gi4s a chance,
will peck at its captor or his dog un
mercifully. A farmer who caught one of the
birds by setting a trap Alongside of
a chicken that had been killed in
judiciously reached ont to catch it
by the feet. The f rcofoot executed
a movement that was entirely be
yond tho farmer's comprehension,
and the next minute the latter
found his wrist gripped in a set of
claws to which tho trn wiw as noth
ing, lie was obliged to kill iho
bird, and then found that the eltnrs
had penetrated to the bone.
The Earliest Yacht Race.
What is said to be the earliest of
recorded vacht races took place on
Oct. 1, 1GC1. John Evelyn in his
diary of that date mentions that he
tailed with his majesty Charles II.
in one of his pleasure boats or
yachts, "vessels not known among
us until the Dutch East India com
pany presented that curious piece
to the king, being very excellent
nailing vessels. It was on a match
between this and his other new
boat," continued Evelyn, "built
frigatelike, and one of the Duke of
York's, the wager of 100, and tho
race from Greenwich to Gravesend
and back, the king lost it going
down, tho wind being contrary, but
saved stakes in returning."
Tho word "yacht" is itself Dutch,
but the vessels which the merry
monarch. sailed were little similar to
tho racers of the present day. Men
tion is made of other yachts and
races, but the details are verv mea
ger. Lightning and Willows.
"In all my forty years' experi
ence with trees and plants," said a
well known gardener, "I have yet to
hear of a willow tree being struck
by lightning. Spruce trees, white
wood and pine trees almost seem to
attract the electricity. Oak and oth
er large trees -and even many small
trees are often maimed and killed.
But willow trees seem, for some rea
son, to bo immune to death or in
jury in this shape, and I have never
seen or even heard of a tree of this
family which lightning has ever
struck." Cleveland Leader.
Respect of Elders.
Respect of elders is the paralysis
of the young. The young have a
chance of clear vision, but in this
blessed country they only see what
their elders expect them to see, only
think what their elders expect them
to think. So they grow into elders
who learn nothing with years but
to save themselves the troublo of
thinking. Listen to tho grave talk
of your elders, and you will hear
hashed newspaper. Julian Bturgis
in "Stephen Calinari."
When Horses 8lp.
Horses always point one ear for
ward when they sleep. Exactly why
this is done no human- being can
tell, but the probability is that the
practice is a relio of the time when
they were wild and obliged to be on
their guard even when asloep. Cut
tle, on the other hand, are apparent
ly indifferent as to the position of
tneir ears while sleeping, but, no
matter what position . Utfy are tn,
both are always pointeif alike.
A JOACmM CONCERT. '
How It Was Enjoyed by a 8ympathetle
Engllch Lord.
Joachim, the violinist, told with
keenest relish the following joke, of
which, he i:aid. be was the victim.
Whether he or Lord It. was tho vic
tim the reader will decide for him
self, according to his possession or
lack of a fondness for classical
music:
During his sojourn in London
Joachim formed a close friendship
with Lord II., a gentleman much
sought after by society, but well
known for his antipathy to all
music. Having learned that Joa
chim was to give a series of concerts
at St. James' hall, Lord It. announc
ed to him that he would go to hear
him play.
The HHisician thanked him for
this mark of sympathy and added
that he would be charmed to know
the impressions of the noblo lord
afterward.
Two days afterward chanco
brought together the two friends at
an evening entertainment. The
virtuoso did not fail to ask Lord 11.
what he thought of the works of
Beethoven and if the concert had
not been a little long for him.
"By no means," replied Lord It.
"I have been much amused. I did
not recognize you at first under your
negro mask, but later I laughed the
more on account of it."
A chilly silence prevailed among
the guests until Lord It. explained
his meaning.
It seems that Lord It. had mado
a mistake in the floor. Instead of
moun-ting to tho first floor, where
Joachim was giving his concert, ho
had entered at the ground floor,
where some negro minstrels were
giving a performance.
Defeated by Nature.
Nutmegs grow on little trees
which look like small penr trees and
which are generally not over twenty
feet high. The flowers aro very
much like the lily of the valley.
They are pale and very fragrant.
Tho nutmeg is the seed of tho fruit,
and mace is the thin covering over
tho seed. llio fruit is about the j
size of a peach. When ripe, it
breaks open and shows a little nut j
inside. Tho trees grow on the !
islands of Asia and tropical Amer
ica. They bear fruit seventy or
eighty years, having ripe fruit on
them all the season. A fine tree in
Jamaica has more than 4,000 nut
me:rs on it every year.
The Dutch used to have all this
nutmeg trade, as they owned the
Banda island and conquered all tho
other traders and destroyed all the
trees. To keep the price up they
once burned three piles of nutmegs,
each of which was said to bo "as big
as a church."
Xature did not sympathize with
such meanness. The nutmeg pi
goon, found in all the Indian islands,
did for the world what tho Dutch
had determined should not bo done
carried th? seeds, which are their
food, into all tho surrounding coun
tries. Shark Skins and Shark Fins.
In all the equatorial islands of
tho north and south Pacific shark
fishing is a very profitable industry
to the natives, and every trading
steamer and sailing vessel coming
into the port of Sydney or Auckland
from the islands of' the mid-Pacific
brings some tons of fins, tails and
skins of sharks. The principal mar
kets for the former are Hongkong
and Singapore, but the Chinese
merchants of tho Australasian colo
nies will always buy sharks' fins
and tails at from six to eleven
pence per pound, tho fins bringing
the best price on account of tho
larger amount of glutinous matter
they contain, for which they are
highly relished by the richer class of
Chinese as a delicacy. Tho tails aro
also appreciated as an article of
food in China, and, apart from their
edible qualities, they havo a further
value as a huso for clear varnishes,
etc.
Coal, Damp and Dry.
If a load of coal is left out of
doors, exposed to the weather, say,
for a month, it loses one-third of
its heating quantities. If a ton of
coal is plated on the ground and left
there and another ton is placed
under a shed, the latter loses about
25 per cent of its heating force, tho
former about 47 per cent. Hence
it is a groat saving of coal to havo
it in a dry place, covered over on all
sides. The softer the coal the more
heating power it loses, becauso the
volatile and valuable constituents
undergo a slow combination.
Women Live Longer Than Men.
In tho tropics it is a recognized
fact that the duration of life among
women is much longer than among
men, and the causes which con
tribute to this end seem to hold
good for all climates. A well known
medical expert on tho subject of
colonial life maintains that expo
sure to fatigue, chills, rregular
meals and. the frequent taking of
alcohol account for men dyin;;
quicker in the tropics than women,
who avoid all these causes. And un
questionably the same reasons have
contributed to female longevity in
this country, but the balance oI life
will bo more evenly adjusted, in an
other generation or two, since wom
en are more and more entering into
competition with men everv dav.
You can trust tho man fully
who will work as hard for others
as he will for himself, but you
don't havo to trust very many.
WATER IN THE AIR.
Even at Great Halrjhta There la Con
sldcrable Moisture.
It is seldom realized, save by
aeronauts and mountaineers, how
much watery haze the lower air con
tains. Bluo sky itself is but the
ultimate fading out of haze, and
when wholo lower layers of the at
mosphere aro surmounted tho blue
above is bluer than before only by
reason of the haze there being more
attenuated. The result of investi
gations carried out chiefly by high
flying kites goes to show that,
though at great heights the air may
be spoken of as dry, this is but a
relative term. Commonly about
one-half of the water vapor in the
air is left below by the time the
first milo and a half is climbed, but
the actual moisture present varies
with circumstances. Thus up to a
few thousand feet the air is drier
during winter and at night and
damper during summer and by day
than it is near, tho ground.
In the light of these facts it be
comes easy to conceive how in cer
tain conditions of moist weather
and on a dark night the light of a
large town reflected in the heaven
may be seen even at a long distance.
Under the clear skies of other lands
reflection may be seen on tho under
surface of a cloud over great ranges.
Thus tho cloud heaps over thunder
storms on the American prairioc
may sometimes be seen at night on
the horizon at a distance amounting
to some "00 miles.
Again, it will be easy to grasp
tho further fact that haze in the air
is more clearly manifested to the
observer who, whether in a balloon
or on a mountain side, has climbed
above its lower hioistor levels. Here
tho explanation is simply that from
his new point of view the haze is
seen against the dark earth while
being itself illuminated by the light
from the sky above. Gentleman'
Magazine.
The Street Market, Cologne.
This street market is a peculiarly
democratic institution and ono rap
idly becomes friendly with the sales
women or even a chance passerby,
entrapped unawares and becomes
a purchaser like oneself. Thrift
and sturdiness are the distinguish
ing characteristics of these Bhine
land peasants. They know well how
to drive a bargain, but they are hon
est to a pfennig and good humored
to a fault. Very interesting is their
babble about the flocks and tho
crops, very quaint they look clad
in their national costumes, and most
delicious are the mountain straw
berries, fresh cheese and thick
cream which these clever house-'
wives bring in from tho country,
especially to tempt hotel weary
travelers. One eats the little lunch
eon with leckerly sweet cakes in
the sjiade of the green trees which
lino the Cologne market, gazing on
the tiled houses which girt it about
and catching a glimpse of the cathe
dral's slender spire, pointing ever
aloft, rising above all, "patiently re
mote," and in its superb proportion
of matchless architecture, making
one, as Lowell saTs, "own himself
a happy Goth." Catholic World. ,
Afghan Ferr'es.
The Afghan ferryman at. some
ferries on the river Oxus makes use
of ponies to get his clumsy boat
across the stream. "Ono or some
times two of these rather insuffi
cient looking animals are attached
to tho boat by bellybands or sur
cingles,, which allow them to swim
alongside, with the strain of the
haul on their middles. They are to
a certain extent supported in the
water by tho ropes which attach
them to tho boat, but only their
heads are usually visible as they
strike out with measured pace, I
snorting with each stroke, being di- I
rected from the boat as to which j
way they should go. So powerful j
is their stroke that two small thir- j
teen hand ponies will easily pull a !
boat which might carry ten tons
of dead weight. One almost looked
to see if their feet were webbed as
they struggled into the shallows of
the river banks. It was a revelation
as to the strength of a horse's
stroke in the water."
Too Valuable to Lose.
' An important cricket match was
scheduled in an English village,
and, to the disappointment of
everybody, the best player was un
able to play owing to a sprained
wrist. The new curate was hur
riedly substituted and by his bril
liant play secured a victory for the
local team. Tho next morning as i
tlio squire, himself an enthusiastic
cricketer, was leaving the church,
where the curate had just preached
his first sermon, he was asked by tho
vicar what he thought of the new
curate.
"Oh," responded tho squire, "his
voice is weaK, his doctrine's shaky,
ho isn't as learned as ho should be,
but his1 cricket is a fair eye opener.
We must keep him, even if wo have
to pay him double the salary."

THREE TALL STORIES.
Incidents With Endings Contrary to
All Human Experience.
"I have got just $3,000 to spend
in building a house," said the con
fiding man who hod dropped into
the office of the architect, "and I
wont you to draw me tlio plans for
a good two story frame dwelling
that can be built for that sum,
counting materials, work and all."
So the architect drew the plans
nd specifications for a $3,000
house, and tho man subsequently
built it for that sum, with $G.37 to
spare, which lie spent in giving the
architect a dinner at a down town
restaurant.
A woman awoke in the middle of
the night with a shriek.
"John," she cried to her husband,
"my sister Jano is dead! I know it!
I havo just had a frightfully vivid
dream about her."
But her husband quieted her, and
presently she went to Bleep, her
cheeks Still wet with tears.
Then he noted the exact hour at
which his wife had had her dream.
The next day, as can be verified
by anybody who is skeptical, no mes
senger of any sort came with a tele
gram containing the sad news of
the death of her sister Jane, who,
at last accounts, was still alive and
well.
"Cuisos on. my folly!" suddenly
exclaimed ill. Jrobinson when
about half way down town.
It was a beautiful day, and there
was not a cloud in the sky.
He had donned his high silk hat
and forgotten his umbrella.
Still mark the statement it did
not rain.
In fact, it didn't rain for nearly
two weeks after that. Chicago

r ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Mow to Arrange Cut Flowers to Se
cure Pleasing Effects.
In order to secure the best and
most pleasing effects in the arrange
ment of cut flowers it is necessary
that their manner of growth bo con
sidered. Flowers that grow on tall
stalks should bo put in high vases,
which permit the long green stems
to rise in a natural fashion, with
some of tho pretty leaves appearing
gracefully among them. Tiny flow
ers should be placed in 6mall re
ceptacles corresponding to their
size. The aim should bo to give,
as far as possible, a natural appear
ance to each kind of flower.
When gathering field daisies, also
gather some of the seed grasses that
grow among them, then place all
loosely in a suitable vaso, remember
ing that they do not grow with their
heads close together. This arrange
ment, with the lielp of a stretch of
the imagination, will remind one of
a small field of daisies with tho
grasses waving and nodding in the
wind.
Roses should not be crowded into
a vase, but tumbled loosely into a
bowl, and a littlo study will enable
one to add tho necessary touches
that help to give to these beautiful
cut flowers their natural grace and
beauty.
Tansies should be cut with stems
and leaves and massed in a low,
flaring vase, where they have a
chance to appear as if still growing.
For rati rrousettwanlng.
One method of cleaning carpets
which has been pronounced in every
way satisfactory is to make a suds
with good white soap and hot water,
adding enough fuller's earth to se
cure the consistency of thin cream.
Then, after providing a number of
clean cloths, a scrubbing brush, a
large sponge and a bucket of fresh
water, pour some of the cleaning
mixture into a bowl, dip tho brush
into it and brush a Bniall piece of
the carpet at a time, washing it with
the sponge and cold water and dry
ing with the clo.s. When it has
all been gone over in this way, let it
dry.
For Stair Landings.
In most houses now being built
the staircase is likely to bo broken
by a landing after a few steps. An
effective way to make use of the
lower rail is to make it the back
support of a high settco. Tho seat
to this should be rounded out in
front and be provided with a cush
ion covered with some velvety fab
ric like velours or corduroy. Tho
support for tho seat should match
the wood and design of tho stair
case. One seen fitted against a dark
rail had a dull rod cushion that was
extremely offective.
All active love idealizes that
is, sees and loves the ideal of the
loved one. Often, indeed, the
absorption iu the ideal is b com
plete that the outer life is mis
takeuly supposed to be identical
with it, thus opening tho way to
shocks and bittor disappoint
ments. -Uocetnbor Ladies' Home
