A Comedy of Krrora.
Attorney 0. C. Babcock is a very hon
est looking young gentleman, and yet he
was twice taken for a thief and once for
a dead beat.
Mr. Babcock went into a restaurant on
Third street and deposited his umbrella
in the rack and hung his black Derby
hat on a nickel plated hat hook. When
the disciple of Blackstone had finished
his repast he walked over to the wall and
" took what ho supposed was his hat, put
it on and started toward tho counter to
pay for his breakfast.
An athletic looking gentlcuiau, who
was eating his morning repast and watch
ing his portable property, roared out:
"Come back here, sir, and leave my
hat."
All the ladies and gentlemen in the
restaurant watched Mr. Babcock as he
replaced the hat and took his own.
The young lawyer was as mad as a hor
„ net and somewhat confused at the con
tretemps. Then he walked over to the
umbrella rack and picked up uu urn
* brella. The observant gentleman whose
hat Mr. Babcock had taken noticed that
it was his umbrella that waß being carried
off, and ho shouted in stentorian tones:
"Drop that umbrella or I'll hand you
over to tho police."
Mr. Babcock saw that he had made a
second mistake, and soon fished his own
rain shedder from among the many
others that wore in the rack.
Then he left the restaurant, and he
was called back by the cashier, who
oame to the door and excitedly said:
"Hadn't you better come back and
pay for your breakfast? You will at least
avoid being handed over to the police."
As he still had his check for a fifty
oent breakfast in his hand, Mr. Bab
cock walked back and paid his bill, with
the eyes of every lady and gentleman in
the place fixed suspiciously upon him.
One elderly lady audibly remarked:
"He don't look like a thief, but you can't
tell by looks nowadays what a person is,
as good clothes don't cost much."—Seat

With th© Tongq.
A great deal of laughter has been ex
pended on womankind for taking the
broom as a weapon in "shooing" an
enemy, but, after all, why should not
one use the implement to which she is
most accustomed? Great execution is
possible with the weapon of our choice,
as an English lady, living in Canada, has
proved.
She was one day greatly interested in
v ' putting out tho family washing to dry.
Sheets and tablecloths were on tho line,
which, to her horror, suddenly fell,
dropping her spotless clothes in tho dirt.
A large buck, caught by the antlers,
was the cause of the trouble. There was
not a man within five miles—they had
all gone to a neighbor's for the day. The
deer plungpd about, and the lady scream
ed. Something had to be done, and done
at once. Thero was a fine gun in the
v house, loaded, but the lady would not ap
prrach it, as firearms were her especial
dread.
Among her many possessions she had
a largo pair of tongs. She thoroughly
understood this firearm, and with all her
housewifely instincts outraged, she seized
them and began tho attack.
Within five minutes the buck's skull
was pounded to a jelly, and then the vic
tor, her clothing slightly torn, sat down
and indulged in a good cry.—Forest and
Stream.
Trout and Superstition.
The trout is derived from a word mean
ing to eat, just as salmon from one mean
ing to leap. The former fish has acquired
some celebrity in folk medicine. Thus it
is a superstition of Shropshire that a pie
dish full of cider should be taken down
to a river and a good sized trout caught
and drowned in the cider, would a per
son recover from the whooping cough.
Trout and cider were then to be carefully
carried back to the house, and the sick
person must eat the trout after it has
"been fried and drink the cider. In North
umberland for the same ailment a trout's
head is put into the mouth of the suf
ferer, and, as it is said, the trout is left
to breathe in the patient's mouth. Still
more curiously, Mr. Henderson relates
that a friend, when fishing in Cleveland,
was asked by a peasant to give him a
"wick" (live) trout to lay on tho stomach
of one of his children who was much
troubled with worms, a trout so applied
being a certain cure for the complaint.—

Nine Tailors Make a Man.
Everybody has heard of the saying
that it takes nine tailors to make a man,
and the general supposition is that it re
* Sects upon tailors in some indefinite man
ner, and no one knows where the saying
originated. Now, the truth is that the
saying is misquoted, and the proper word
is tailers, or tellers, not tailors, as often
written, and its origin can be traced
back several centuries.
It was one of the customs when a per
son died in the parish to toll the church
bell once for every year of the deceased's
life. But nobody from this could tell
■the sex of tho departed, so tho sexton,
to gratify public curiosity, after ringing
in the usual way the number of years,
would give eight quick strokes if tho de
ceased was a woman and nine if it was a
man. This being rung at the end of the
strokes for the years were called tailers,
and thus nine tailers made a man.—

.Self Devouring.
A strange and really dramatic situa
tion is one described by the author of
"Obeah," a little liook which treats of
West Indian life. Insects and reptiles
are abundant in the West Indies, and one
soon gets well acquainted with certain
small, bright green lizards, which are
perfectly harmless and very lively.
These little creatures are quite tame,
and when caught by the tail they slip
away, leaving that appendage behind
them.
I was once sitting in the veranda,
watching a little green lizard darting
about after the flies. It became bold,
and in one" of its quick movements
jumped on my foot. I made a sudden
snatch, and caught the little fellow by
the tail. Giving a wriggle, ho darted
off, leaving that portion of his property
in my hands, and, having no use for it,
I dropped it on the floor and resumed
my book.
Presently I looked down and saw thai
a lot of ants hail found tho piece of tail,
and were hurrying off with their treas
ure as fast as they could. When they
had dragged it almost to their hole 1
noticed ray little green friend, a few
inches away, intently eying his missing
property. The ants were just giving a
final pull toward their nest, when the
lizard suddenly made a dart upon them,
seized his bit of tail, and swallowed it
with evident gusto.
Eating the First Oyster.
is has been often said that he must
have been a bold man who first ate an
oyster. This is said in ignorance of the
legend which assigns the first act of oys
ter eating to a very natural cause.
It is related that a man, walking one
day, picked up one of these savory bi
valves just as it was in the act of gaping.
Observing the extreme smoothness of
the interior of the shells, he insinuated
his finger between them that he might
feel their shining surface, when sud
denly they closed upon the exploring
digit with a sensation less pleasurable
than he anticipated.
The prompt withdrawal of his finget
was scarcely a more natural movement
than its transfer to his mouth. It is not
very clear why people when they hurt
their fingers put them into their mouths:
but it is very certain that they do; and
in this ease the result was most fortu
nate.
The owner of the finger tasted oystei
juice for the first time, as the Chinaman
in Elia's essay having burnt his fingei
first tasted crackling. The savor wat
delicious; he had made agreat discovery
so he picked up the oysters, forced opei
the shells, banqueted upon their con
tents, and soon brought oyster eating
into fashion.
And, unlike most fashions, it has never
gone, and is never likely to go out. —

Tli© Violin Mnkeni.
In Markneukirchen, with its surround
ing villages, Klingenthal, Fleissen, Rolir
back and Graslitz, in Saxony, are about
fifteen thousand people who do nothing
else, day after day, but make violins.
The inhabitants, from the little urchin
to the old gray headed man, the small
girl and the old grandmother, all are en
gaged in making some parts of a fiddle.
A good instrument consists of sixty-twc
different pieces. The older men make
the finger hoard from ebony, and the
string holder or the screws. The small
boys make themselves useful by look
ing after tho glue pot. A man with
strong, steady hands and a clear eye
puts tho different pieces together, and
this is the most difficult task of all. The
women generally occupy themselves as
polishers, and the family that has a
daughter who is a good polisher is con
sidered fortunate. Even a young man,
when he goes a-wooing, inquires whether
the young girl is a good polisher; and ii
she is, it certainly will increase his af
fection for her at least twofold. The
polishing takes a good deal of time, some
of the best violins being twenty and even
thirty times polished. Every family has
its peculiar style of polishing, and they
never vary from that. There is one that
makes nothing but a deep wine color,
another a citron color, yet another an
orange color, and so on.—Letter in Bos
ton Transcript.
American 'Printing.
Do you know there are 12,000 papers,
magazines, etc., published in the United
States, that there are over 62,000 persons,
4,000 of them females, employed in
American composing rooms, and that
many of the 17,000 professional writers
in the country are practical printers!
The most glorious of all the discoveries
on which tho genius of the middle ages
may lay his hand and proudly say, "This
is mine"—and the middle ages gave birth
to all the extraordinary inventions that
give to modern life its vast superiority
over antiquity—is the invention of print
ing.
It is a boon of unqualified good, its
possession is entirely beneficial, for it has
added to our store of knowledge, multi
plied our enjoyments, and given a new
cast to our mind and increased activity
to our powers. It lias raised us in the
scale of thinking beings, has enlarged the
limits of our reasons, added to the dig
nity of our nature by giving birth to pub
lic opinion, and now man is no longer
content if ho does not know all the news
and have daily information about the
whole human race.—New Orleans Pica

England'* Export* of Home*.
It appears that the value of the horses
which have been exported from England
during 1889 was £532,508, against £793,-
731 during 1888. The number of horses
was 13,255, there having been exported
6,857 mares, 4,919 geldings and 2,979
stallions. During 1888 the total number
was 12,045. Of the mares 1,188 were
sent to Canada, some of these, however,
being really destined for the United
States; 884 went to Belgium, 700 to Hol
land*434 to Franco, 418 to the United
States direct and 1,733 to other countries.
Of the stallions 2,008 were sent to Can

DO NOT KAT TOO MUCH.
PROFESSOR ATWATER'S LECTURE
ON A VERY PRACTICAL TOPIC.
The Ilelutiou of Food to Health —Ignorance
of the Idiwt of Eating Claims Many Vlo
tinui—Scientists Are Now Giving Atten
tion to the Subject.
The lecture was by Professor W. O.
At water, on "Food and Health." It was
under the auspices of the scientific socie
ties of Washington and the Smithsonian
institution. The principal point of the lec
ture was the adaptation of food to the
demands of the body, and of the evils of
overeating and insufficient nutrition.
Tho eating of bread and meat is a simple
matter, but the way in which the differ
ent constituents of the food perform their
offices in the maintenance of life are prob
lems as profound as any with which phy
sical science has to deal. The works of
nature culminate in man. In Ids organ
ism her operations are most complex and
recondite. The laws which regulate our
physical being are discovered but slowly,
and by the most ingenious and profouud
research. Those which govern the nutri
tion of our bodies have been shrouded in
mystery, which only the investigation of
later time has begun to unveil. But the
crude theories of the past are being grad
ually replaced by the more certain knowl
edge of the present.
But this evil of overeating, be it
great or small, is, of course, confined to
the classes to whom generous fortune,
unchecked by reasonable restraint, al
lows it. There are countless sufferers
from dietary habits into which self in
dulgence has not tempted, but relentless
fate have forced them. The overfed only
pay for pleasure the penalty of pain.
The greater misery of the underfed, their
hunger, with its inseparable attendants,
ignorance, selfishness, crime and degra
dation, are things of terrible moment.
Tho lecturer referred to the income and
expenditure of the body, as follows:
"The body receives food, drink and
oxygen, which constitute its income.
Part of this material is transformed into
flesh, fat, bone and other tissues of the
body. Tho remainder, together with the
tissues worn out by use, is transformed
into urea, carbonic acid, water, etc.
These products are given off front the
body and constitute its expenditure."
Illustrated maps were used to show
the dietaries of different people engaged
in different occupations, and he proved
that although people in this country
work harder and need to have more and
better food than those of corresponding
classes in Europe, yet that many persons
of sedentary habits, who really need but
little, consume as much as would be re
quired if they were engaged in severe
muscular labor.
A certain amount of food is necessary
to keep the machinery moving. A large
number of well to do people of this coun
try eat much more than is necessary.
The excess consists of meats and sweet
meats. We ransack the four quarters of
the earth for materials to excite the ap
petite, and thus increase the amount of
food consumed. Most people of this
country are engaged in occupations
which require comparatively little mus
cular exercise, and the result is we im
pose upon our bodies the task of getting
rid of a large amount of material in ex
cess of its needs at fearful cost to health
and happiness.
The cheapest food is that which sup
plies the most nutriment for the least
money. The most economical food is
that which is cheapest and best adapted
to the wants of the user. But the maxim
that "the best is the cheapest" does not
apply to food. The best food, in the
sense of that which has the finest ap
pearance and flavor and is sold at the
highest price, is not generally the cheap
est nor the most economical, nor is it al
ways the most healthful. It is important
that people be taught about their food,
but the first requisite is the information
to give them. The subject is, however,
new. In its investigation we stand upon
the borders of a continent of which but
a small part has yet been explored. In
the great European universities investi
gation is active. In our own country
extremly little has been done, and that
little is dependent almost entirely upon
private munificence for its support.
"What," said the speaker, "is to be
done about it? In the first place we
ought to find what flaws there are, if
any, in the conclusions to which the best
research of the time seems to force
us. Then we mtist see how these con
clusions are to be supplemented. This
will require abstruse and costly experi
menting. But at the same time the pub
lic needs to be educated. People need
to understand the fundamental princi
ples. The laws of a large number of
states and territories require that physi
ology be taught in the public schools,
but unfortunately the teachers them
selves are deficient in training, and many
of the text books are sadly defective."
In referring to the importance of pains
taking research, the speaker cited the
experience with tho respiration appar
atus. This in its best form has been used
in a few European universities and ex
periment station laboratories, but not in
this country. The greatest difficulties
attend its management. Professor Hen
neberg, of the University of Goettingen,
began work of this kind over twenty
years ago and has only lately, and after
the expenditure of many thousands of
dollars, succeeded in getting . is respira
tion apparatus into condition for experi
ments of the desired accuracy. But the
great problem now before the student of
animal nutrition is that of the income
and expenditure of energy in the animal
body. It will require the keenest, most
elaborate and most painstaking efforts of
the chemist, the physicist, and the biolo
gist, but tho effort toward its solution
must be made.
In speaking of researches in this line
in the United States it was that we are
very far behind European investigators,
that, indeed, we have hardly made a be
ginning. What we most need is trained
men with high, scholarly ideas, enthusi
astic devotion, and abundant means at
their command. That we shall soma
time have these there is good ground to
hope.—Washington Post.
KENTUCKY'B BORDER WAR.
From the Recollection* of ■ Tnlte-Tew-
Old of 1809.
My native town of Hartford, Ky., and
the surrounding county were as badly
divided as any section of any border
Btate, and raids and reprisals were
frequent and often very bloody. Mat
ters became > unsettled that it was
no uncommon sight to see men carry
their guns to church and to funerals. 1
have seen a country church congregation
where, on the "men's side," as it is called,
bayonets stood against the wall or leaned
up over men's shoulders while they lis
tened to the discourse. Sentinels were
on such occasions placed on duty and all
hands were in readiness at any moment
to see a gang of guerrillas dash down
upon the "hitching poles," where the
horses of the congregation were tied.
These scenes were not without their hu
morous features. One old gentleman,
bearing the suggestive name of "Aunt
Billy," who had never fired a gun in his
life, joined in ono of'the home guard raids.
He created much merriment when he
discovered th t the trigger of his musket
was loose, lie said he "moight as well
go home as his gun was.broke and would
not shoot."
This same man asked which side of the
army "General Items" belonged to. He
saw his name mentioned in every paper,
and had never heard which army he
was in,
A company of home guards were
summoned to meet for the drill. One
old farmer thought lie would distinguish
liimself for proficiency, so he braced him
self up and put his heels together and
extended his toc3 at a proper angle, and
called out: "Fix the balance, capting,
I'm in line."
One of my neighbors was a southern
sympathizer, and he had two grown sons
who got themselves into trouble by their
patriotic display. Orders had been issued
by the department commander to arrest
anybody known to shout the familiar
"Hurrah for Jeff Davis and the South
ern Confederacy."
These boys bad been reported to the
post commander as having offended in
this way, and they were arrested and put
in the county jail. They said they would
rot in prison before they would take the
oath of allegiance to "Lincoln's hire
ling-'," but they reconsidered this resolu
tion and were released on bail. Not
tnany weeks passed before the eldest
v ent to a country church one Sunday,
and during the services in the church he
selected a tine horse owned in the neigh
borhood and mounted and rode away.
The next heard of him was an account
of his capture in an engagement between
Federal soldiers and a band of guerrillas,
near Padueah. He was taken to Louis
ville, Ivy., where it was learned that he
was a bail jumper. At this time the
government was practicing retaliation.
A band of guerrillas had a few days be
fore taken two citizens of a village in
Green county into the street and shot
them down. The commanded of the
forces at Louisville condemned five guer
rilla prisoners to be sent down to the
same spot and executed in retaliation.
Morgan was among the number. An
escort of soldiers took the five doomed
men, with coffins for each, and went by
rail to Murufordsville and thence by
wagon to the scene of the recent mur
ders. Here the men were blindfolded,
their hands pinioned at their backs and
the coffins arranged in a row, and each
man stood up in front of his coffin.
The guns were loaded by the officers
and handed to the soldiers to fire. Ono
blank load and one ball was to be fired
at each victim, but the men who did the
firing did not know who had the blank
cartridge. At the command to fire the
hills re-echoed the familiar sound of the
volley of musketry, and the smoke
lifted, revealing five prostrate forms.
As an officer approached he observed
that Morgan was breathing. He was
lying across his coffin, with his head at
one side and his feet at the other. The
officer fired a pistol ball into his body,
when the muscular action caused the
body to bound several feet into the air.
He sank back dead, not having spoken
since the first volley was fired. He had
not been hit by the volley, but fell with
his fellow victims, and no doubt thought
himself dead, so great was the effect of
the terrible expectation. The five men
were buried in ono grave. This practice
of retaliation seemed at the time, and
does yet, to be one of the most terrible
aspects of war; yet it materially lessened
the number of victims to the rapidly in
creasing bands who owed allegiance to
no higher court than their own selfish
and demoralized natures.—Warren G.
Benton.
A Humorist's Influence.
I am a cripple, but I never tbink of
my misfortune. Laugli and the world
laughs with you. People say, "How
Wilder is handicapped." I am not handi
capped. I don't want sympathy. 1 uever
think about my shape. 1 make slo,oooa
year. I have my yearly trip to Europe
and have the entree to all the theatres
there and in this city. Igo to the thea
tres three times a week on an average.
When I appear at a benefit performance
even tlin actors applaud meand the stage
hands stop work and say, "Keep quiet;
little Wilder is on." Whenever Igo into
society it is the same. Why is it? It
isn't because it's me. it's liecause I
bring smiles and laughter. 1 never croak.
Peoplo don't care for Wilder, hut they do
care for a good laugh. Why, even the
criminals on Blackwell's Island are glad
to see me, and although they have sins
and trouble enough, they have time to
hear a good story, and make the prison
rafters ring with laughter.—Marshall P.
Wilder's Letter.
How to Go to Steep.
A curate in London is afflicted with
sleeplessness in direct proportion to the
mental worry and absence of air and
exercise lie has to endure, and finds that
"to walk even one milo in a day is a
great thing" in 1 ii. • way of a remedy.
At the moment, lie says, tho liest thing
one can do is to get up, drink half a glass
of water and walk round the room. The
slight alternation of cold and warmth has
a soporific effect.—London Spectator.
