Aniotiff I lio folklore of llm icnsnntrj)
of lliitiitmnlit niul some of tlio mtjoln
luvr Mimynr stntes of rnstorn Europe
Is fiiiiiul Ilic story of the expulsion of
our first pnrt'iits from the gnrricn of
Eden. It runs thus:
When Atliiin nnil Eve foil, flod sent
('alirlcl, the Mnitynr ntiKt'l, to turn
llii'in out of Eilon ns n puttlxhtnt'iit for
their sin. Onlirlel wns reeelved most
euurteoiiHly, food nnil drink of the
best lieliiR set tieforo him. Now, (In
tirlel linil a kind licnrt nnil tiHik pity
upon the poor folk nnil would not ne
eept their hoxpltnllty, rcineniherlnit his
err:ind. So he relumed nnd lii'Hiteil
thnt siinm one else lie sent to evict the
sinners, ns he renlly could not do It
The Itiiphnel, tlio Itouninnlnn nni;e1,
was sent nnil wns reeelved ns Onlirlel

of n Rood dinner, and so he snt down
nnd thorotiKlily enjoyed himself. Tho
fennt over, ho told tlio errlnic pnlr his

Their bllter sorrow so touched his aft

pnlr nnil treated even more sumptu

BULLETS AS EVIDENCE.
Odd Farts Developed by TbrlrPrina.
Inenee In Mnrilrr Trials,
The Important part played In ninny
murder trials by a flattened and mis
shapen lilt of lead or steel, once In tho
form of n bullet, often lends to the de
velopment of some curious facts, says
the Italtitnore A morion n. A leaden bul
let will lose appreciably In weight by
beliiR llred, nnd the form of the barrel
may tend to reduce Its size. In a rifle
some of the lend Is taken off by the
grooves. The friction nlxo hents nnd
tends tn partially melt the outsldo of
the ball, and beenuse of this It chunges
Its shnpo In tho air.
One peculiar fact about a bullet Is
thnt It will very often make a wound of
entry smnller than the projectile Itself
even In so brittle a substance ns glass.
Another straiiKO fact nbout n bullet la
thnt It will often puss through Inter
vening clothing, making n hole that enn
hnrdly be noticed, nnd yet carry on Its
point n circular piece of cloth. The enr
rylng of bits of clothing, lialr or dirt In
to wounds in such n manner greatly
enhances the dangers of peritonitis.
Were it not for this latter contact tho
bullet would not he nenrly so danger
ous, ns its rnpld flight nnd heating
make it practically sterile.
lllaekeiied edges of wounds are more
likely to have been caused by a lend
bullet, although the hnll with a lend tip
could also produce this result. Regard
ing powder stains, smokeless or other
wise, nothing of great value Is to be
gn I nod when the shooting occurs at a
distance greater than twelve or fifteen
feet. At a recent trial a doctor stated
that from powder innrks on the face
he Judged thnt the shot bnd been fired
at a distance of not more than three
feet, which conclusion wns Inter bncked
up by tho assertion mndo on the stand
by tho prisoner himself. ,
Ilia Mother Took No Chances.
She wns a portly danio, with florid
complexion and voluminous skirts. She
wns walking majestically down Twenty-third
street, looking the picture of
content In the hand thnt held up her
skirt wna clasped a thin chain, much
like a dog chnln, but Instead of the
regulation poodle, pug or St. Chnrles
spaniel trotting along nt the other end
was a small boy of perhaps five years;
aud wheuever fascinated by the al
luring attractions along his routo the
maternal hand gave the chain a gentle
tug, and the small boy obediently an
swered the mute injunction. New York

FIRST VIEW OF WHITE MEN
The Rlfie and Rarnlaa- Glass frlcnt
ened the Indians.
It Is smnll wonder thnt the first view
of a white man created terror ninong
the superstitious Indians. A striking
Instnneo of this occurred when the
Wallnwnlln Indiana first saw Cnptnln
Clark nf the Lewis nnd Clnrk expedi
tion. Thinking to propitiate tho sav
ages nnd nllny their fears of the white
men, he planned to visit a village of
the Wnllawnlliis before the arrival of
the rest of bis party.
With this end In view, he set out to
cross the Columhlit river In a canoe,
taking threo men with him. On the
way he shot a era no nnd a duck, both
of which fell near him. Ho landed be
fore five wlgwnms placed close to ench
other, but not a person wna visible,
and the doors, which wre of tunt,
were closed. Holding his pipe In hnnd,
ns an Indication of good will, ho push
ed aside one of the doors and entered
the lodge.
Inside were thirty men, women nnd
children huddled together In terror.
Ho went to them, shook each by the
hnnd nnd said some friendly words,
expressing by word and manner his
kindly feeling. Their apprehensions
were nllny oil until ho took out his
burning glass nnd lighted his pipe by
tlio rnys of tho sun. Consternation
ngilln prevnlled, nnd what might hnve
occurred but for the timely arrival of
two chiefs who knew tho white men
en nnnt be told.'
It seems that the Indians hnd not
seen Cnptnln Clark, but they had seen
the white crime which he hnd shot
fall Just before his appearance. They
hnd also seen tho duck fall nt his shot.
They connected the fall of the birds
with his ndvent nnd thought he had
fallen from the clouds.
The sound of the rllle, which they
hnd never before heard, they believed
wns n signal to announce the white
man's coming, flmnll wonder, then,
that their hardly allayed fears wpro
ngaln nrouscd when he brought down
lire from heaven by mentis of his burn
ing glass. Youth's Companion.
POULTRY POINTERS.
Lnrge roosters with small hens Is a
very poor combination.
Renlded milk and cooked rlco will
often stop diarrhea lu fowls.
Indigestion, one of the worst diseases
among poultry, Is often caused by sour,
moldy food.
Eggs Intended to be hutched In an In
cubator should never be allowed td be
come chilled.
In order to hnve poultry tender nnd
Juicy they must be fattened quickly.
Two weeks of good feeding are usually
sufficient
Uso plenty of lime In the poultry
bouse. It will kill lice, la a good dis
infectant, will purify tho nlr, It de
stroys vermin nnd prevents gapes.
One of the best wnys of feeding oats
to poultry Is to put them In a tub at
night, pour scalding water over them,
let them stand until morning and feed
them warm.
When the fowls are closely confined
or when the ground is covered with
snow, they must have bulky food. Cut
clover hay well steamed Is good, us
are also cabbuge leaves.
Some of Bnrna' Phrnaee.
Here are a few specimens of Hums'
happy phrases: "The best laid schemes
of mice and men gang oft agley;" "The
fear of hell 'a the hangman's whip, to
baud the wntch hi order;" "l'ut pleas
ures are like popples spread; you seize
the flower, Its bloom is shed;" "Oh,
wad some power the glftle gle us to
pee ourselves as ithers see us;" "Mnn'a
Inhumanity to man makes countless
thousands mourn;" "Nursing her wrath
to keep It warm;" "The mirth and fun
grew fast and furious;" "Whnt's done
we partly may compute, hut know not
what's resisted;" 'Trlnces and lords
aro but the breath of kings;" '"The
rank la but tho guinea stamp; a man's
a man for a that"
Hrmorlng Tumors Early.
If It were generally known amopg In
telligent peoplo thnt great numbers of
Innocent tumors sooner or Inter bo

romnlu quiescent for a great while, tho
sufferers would unhesitatingly consent
to tho removal of theBe morbid growths

when the cure might be effected by mi

smallest scars, especially In such parts

1" ME REFUSED TO SELL.
Turner and Ills Orenl riot a re, "The
Bnlldlnsj nt Carthage."
When Turner exhibited his great pic
ture, "The Hulldlng of Carthnge," ha
wns disappointed becnuso It had not
been sold nt once at tho prlvnte view
and angry with the press for criticising
It severely. Sir Itobert Peel called up
on him..
"Mr. Turner," snld he, "I admire your
'Carthage' so much thnt I want to buy
It. I atn told you want D00 guineas for
It"
"yes." said Turner; "It was D00 guln
ens, but todny It's duo."
"Well," snld f.lr Hobert, "I did not
como prepared to give 000, and I must
think It over. At the snmo time It
seems to me thnt the chnngo Is an ex
trnordlnnry piece of business on your
part."
"Pons you please," snld Turner. "Ho
as you please."
After a few dnys Sir Itobert culled
ngaln upon the grent painter, "Mr.
Turner," be began, "although I thought
It n very extraordinary thing for ytm to
raise your price, I shall be proud to buy
that picture, nnd I nm prepared to give
you the 0(H) guldens."
"A hi" snld Turner. "It wns 000 guin
eas, but today It's 700."
Hlr Hubert grew nugry, nnd Turner
laughed. "I wns only In fun," ho snld,
"I don't Intend to sell the picture nt all.
It shall be my winding sheet."
For years be kept it In his cellar.
Then It wns brought up nnd hung In
his gallery, where It remained us long
ns he lived. When he died, ho left It

Forcing the Pnce.
George Gordon, nil old Hcotchmnn nf
miserly hiiblls, wns dying. A neighbor
wild wns on friendly terms with the
old man's relatives ngreed to call on
the minister nnd beg him to try to
Induce the old fellow to tiuike n will.
Tho minister consented nnd nt length
persuaded the miser to nllow a lawyer
to be sent for.
Ity tho time he arrived the old man
wus rapidly sinking, but tho will wns
smartly drawn up and duly awaited bis
signature. Ho wns propped up lu bed
nnd managed to write "George Gor ."
Then he fell bnck exhausted.
An eager relative who stood by seized
tho pen nnd stuck It In tho dying man's
hnnd.
" '1),' Geordle, 'd,' " referring to the
next letter of tho signature.
The old man glared up wrnthfully.
"Dec?" ho snapped. "I'll dec when
I'm ready, ye avaricious wrntch!"
Somebody t.led.
A certain womnn has a husband who
hns done such a thing as to forget to
do what his wife had requested. The
other evening about 5 o'clock he came
home, nnd she went at him.
"John," she said, "did you tell that
expressman to como here this after
noon?" "Yes, Mary," he answered meekly.
"Well, he hasn't come."
"In thnt so?"
"Yes, it Is. Now, how do you ac
count for It?"
John gave tho mntter a few mo
ments' consideration.
"Well, my dear," he snld finally,
"either he's lying or I am, and to re
lieve us both from your suspicions I'll
Just step down to his place and aee
what's tho mntter." And the charita
ble John went to see tho expressman.

The ancient ICgyptlans believed that
the spirit of their greatest god, Osiris,
dwelt among them In the form of a
pure white bull mnrked by a certain
sign. Herodotus mentions two of these
signs a black euglo on the hack nnd a
black forehead with a square of white
In Its center. These creatures when
found were worshiped during life and

Dog la Good Sport.
There Is one form of grouse shooting
for which I ccufess a weakness. This
Is still hunting, or trailing the birds on
the snow. When a new snow falls, the
woods are like so much clean pnper,
and tho furry nnd fenthered folk are so
ninny unintentional scribblers. Here a

owl broke up the meeting.

sight of It makes you grasp the gun

The Crow Thnt Wears n Fool's Cap.
The following clever wny of keeping
crows nwny from' a gralnlleld Is used
by the former of Holland:
Ho makes somo smnll caps of stout
paper nnd smears around the Inner side
of the mouth of ench somo bird time or
other sticky stuff. In these he puts
some grains of coin nnd stands them
about his llelds by pressing their points
Into soft earth.
When the crow finds one of these
paper caps, he thinks himself In grent
luck until he nttempts to peek nt the
tempting grain, when, to bis astonish
ment, be finds the enp attached to his
head a regular fool's cap which will
not even nllow him to see what course
to take If he files up.
However, ho succeeds In reaching
somo coarse grass or bushes nnd after
much bewildered scrambling und Hup

desirable cap mid ever afterward

of them.
Adam's Birthday.
Formerly Oct. 2.'l wns regiirded ns
Adam's birthday. Theologians of the
Sixteenth nnd seventeenth centuries
wasted much scholarship In efforts to
settle both the manner nnd the date of
creation. Dr. John Light foot, vice chan
cellor of Camhrldgo, a Hebrew scholar
of European reputation, published a
statement to tlio effect thnt, nfter yearn
of research, he had succeeded In dis
covering tho precise moment when tho
earth "rose out of chaos" nnd man
mndo his appearance upon It. This
learned divine declared thnt "heaven
and earth, center and circumference,
wore created nil together In the same
Instant and clouds full of water," and
thnt "this work took place and man
was created by the Trinity on Oct. 23,
41004 11. C, at 0 o'clock in the morning."

Cnshlng's Chnlr For Visitors.
Caleb Cunning desired people to keep
at a dlstnnce from hi 111 while talking,
nnd many of his cullers had a habit of
grndunlly moving their chnlr nenrer to
him during n conversation. So one day,
having been very much annoyed in that
way, he sent for a carpenter and mnde
him fnsten two pieces of board to the
legs of tho chnlr nnd then screw It to
the floor at the plnce where he wanted
people to sit. When It wns done, he
contemplated It with a smllo and re
marked: "I guess I have got them now.
They can't blow their bnd breath In
my fuco nny more."
Thnt chnlr raised a Inugh on ninny
a visitor. fvho, nfter several Ineffectual
attempts to move It forward, would,
on looking closer, find It f listened to
the floor.
