An Overwhelming Thought.
Our s'.'.n is a third-rate sun, situated
in the milky way, one of myriads of
stars, and the milky way is itself one of
myriads of sectional star accumula
tions, for these seem to be countless,
and to be spread over infinity. At some
period of their existence each of these
suns had planets circling around it,
which, after untold ages, arc fit for
some sort of human being to inhabit
them for a comparatively brief period,
after which they still continue for years
to circle around without atmosphere,
vegetation or inhabitants, as the moon
does around our planet. There is noth
ing so calculated to take the conceit out
of an individual who thinks himself
an important unit in the universe as
astronomy. It teaches that we are less,
compared with the universe, than a col
ony of ants is to us, and that the differ
ence between men is less than that be
tween one ant and another.—London

BRIDE AND CRITICS.
She Was Ifappr and Wished to Heal
What I'olkti Said of Her.
I "My wife has had her curiosity ap-
I pcased in away that will satisfy her
for some time," said the newly married
| man as he smiled, according to the
Detroit Free Press. "It was my idea
to make our wedding trip as quiet as
I>ossible and do away as much as we
could with the annoyance that usually
attends wedding couples. But the lady
said that she was proud of being a
bride and that she wanted to hear the
comments that people would make.
With this end in view she lilt upon the
crazy notion of playing deaf and dumb
and going through a lot of monkey
shines with our fingers to carry out the
scheme. She reasoned that this would
cause people to talk in our presence
and thus we would be able to hear
what they said.
"I opposed the idiotic idea from the
start, but what I said cut 110 figure and
I had to consent to the plan. Our first
chance to try the scheme occurred in
a railway station, where we were wait
ing for a train. My wife commenced
her pantomime and I had to carry it
out, feeling like a fool while I was do
ing it. She wobbled her fingers and I
wobbled mine and we soon had every
one staring at lis. There were two
women seated back of us and the com
ments she desired so much to hear
soon came.
44 'lt's a newly married couple," said
one. 'The poor things are deaf and
dumb. Isn't it awfulV'
" 'What do you suppose he saw in
her?' asked the other. 'She is posi
tively homely.'
44 'And I believe her liair Ls bleached,'
said the first woman.
" 'And her hat is out of date,' was
the next startler.
44 'Looks like an old one made over,'
was the reply.
" 'Her dress wrinkles in the back,'
said the first.
" 'She's 35 if she's a day, and she
looks as if she had a frightful tem
per,' put 111 one of them.
"Right there my wife found her
tongue and her remarks to those two
women left no doubt about her having
that important article that women are
supposed to exercise so freely."
There Are Two Heat Centre*.
The eastern ami western shores of
the Atlantic ocean afford a very strik
ing illustration of the varieties of tem
perature from the line which theoreti
cally should prevail. On the Ameri
can continent the effects of Isolation
and radiation have free play, and as a
result great diversities of climate are
experienced within a comparatively
short length of country; places only
a few hundred miles apart exhibiting
great differences between their mean
annual temperatures.
No such diversity exists on the east
ern side of the Atlantic, there being
only about one-half of the variety of
mean annual temperatures in an equal
line of const line that exists on the
opposite side of the ocean. The gulf
stream is responsible for the stability
of the climate of the British isles but
there are other Instances where an
ocean reduces the temperature in ac
cordance with its latitude, the de
crease of temperature from the equa
tor to the poles being more rapid than
under existing conditions.
Not only does the heat equator not
include the geographical equator, hut
the heat equator changes its position
and migrates from one place to an
other.—Newcastle (Kng.) Chronicle.

TRICKS OF STREET BEGGARS.
Device, tf.erf to Excite tlm Interest and
I-lty of the Public.
Cool weather Is here aguin, and with
It the usual hordes ot beggars, who
flock to the city about this time every
year. The ingenious schemes and tricks
with which some of these "children
of fate" seek to gull the unwary are
marvels of cleverness and originality.
Of course, every one knows of the
starved, white-headed old matt who
surreptitiously places a crust of bread
on the sidewalk anil 011 the approach
of some well-to-do looking person dives
wildly for the crust and begins to
chew it ravenously.
Another figure that is becoming quite
familiar is the hard luck young man,
out of work, with a mother and sister
or two in Galveston, about whom he
is very uneasy, and who is trying to
raise enough money to go and hunt for
them.
Vet another familiar figure is the
pitiful little newsboy with dirty face
and ragged raiment, and an tmvariable
story of "hard luck today, Boss—ain't
got no mother, and me sister ami de kid
is sick and I got ter support 'em.
Won't yer buy a paper, please. Boss!"
At first one's heart Is touched by the
pitiful appeals of these ragged little
urchins, struggling for a living, hut if
one bought a paper from every de
serving little fellow some of us would
soon be insolvent.
Then there is the well dressed yontig
man witli red nose and bleared eyes,
who lives somewhere in Jersey. We
all know his little story of how he
just came over last night, and indulged
in a little more liquid refreshment than
he could carry. Of course, he never did
such a thing before, and now he finds
himself in the humiliating position of
being forced to ask the loan of car fate
home.
This little story repeated perhaps a
hundred times a day often touches the
hearts and pockets of tile kindly dis
posed, of whom there are more to be
found in New York than many persons
believe.
Another venerable but clever trick,
similar to that of the crust of bread.
Is known as the "dog and bone." A
very seedy old man apparently half
dead from starvation, and a very dis
reputable, knowing-looking little cur,
are the actors in this play. The prop
erties consist of a single hone, which
is placed in the gutter, and at the ap
proach of some benevolent looking
lady the dog is released. And then
follows a "short sharp struggle" be
tween the man and the dog for the
possession of the much coveted bone.
The man is always the victor. Secur
ing the bone he begins to gnaw it with
an eagerness tlint can not fail to be
convincing to the uninitiated.
For a long time two men operated a
very successful trick along Broadway,
almost every night. One of the men
was thin and emaciated and seemed to
lie in the last stages of consumption.
The other was apparently an honest,
hard working man. The thin man
would place himself in the glare of
the electric light and Straightway go
off into paroxysms of coughing; the
other would then come up, pretend to
assist his accomplice and finally take
up a collection to enable him to go
home to Missouri, or some other place,
to die.
There is on ordinance against hog
ging in New York, and a special squad
of policemen is detailed to prevent it.
The men are sent out in plain clothes;
but it becomes necessary to change
their heats often as the beggars soon
learn to know the officers, and their
usefulness 011 that particular beat is
at an end. —New York Mail and Ex
press.
A Romance of the Plague.
The last time the plague visited Glas
gow with excessive virulence, says the
London Daily Chronicle, was in August,
1045. memento of a pathetic ro
mance connected with this visitation in
Scotland is a railed enclosure on the
bank of the Almond, in the parish of
Bethven, Perthshire. It marks the
spot where lie interred the hapless
"Bessie Bell and Mary Gray," famed
in Scottish song. Daughters respec
tively of the laird of Klnvaid and the
laird of Lynedoch, the .maidens were
very much attached to each other, and
when they heard of the ravages of the
plague they retired to a bower near the
Almond, and dwelt in perfect seclu
sion. The fair recluses, however, had
their place of their retreat discovered
by a young gentleman of their acquain
tance, who supplied the twain with pro
visions. He caught the plague him
self unluckily, and communicated in
fection to Bessie and Mary, to which
the girls fell victims. According to the
stern custom of the time, their bodies
were not allowed internment in Meth
ven kirkyurd, so they were hurled to
gether in a spot contiguous to the bow
er.

Tlte only other time, so far as any
body can remember, that a Joke was

when Thomas Wilson of Washington
was arguing n case. Some people in

but made his remark in sober earnest
ness. However, Mr. Wilson was ar
guing a ease of some importance, and
was dwelling upon propositions that
were known to and accepted by every
law student in the country when lie
was interrupted by the late Justice
Miller, saying:
"Cannot the counsel safely assume
that this court understands the rudi

"I made that mistake In the lower
court," retorted Mr. Wilson, "or tbo

peal."—Chicago Record.
•She's" Good Points.
A pretty girl, witfc J decided air of
being aware of her charms, stood in
front of the lion's cage out at the Zoo
Sunday afternoon, says the Washing
ton Post. Two young men were near
her, and her elaborate unconscious
ness of their presence betrayed the
fact that she knew they were looking
at her.
"Pretty, isn't she?" said one young
man in a low voice.
"She's a beauty," said the other, en
thusiastically. The pretty girl's
cheeks turned a trifle pinker, but she
went on talking elegantly to the elderly
man with her.
"Beautiful head to draw," comment
ed the first young man. "Look at the
way she holds it."
"Uh, hum," assented the other; "that
shoulder's beautiful."
Tfie pretty girl turned pinker still,
and looked more pronouncedly uncon
scious than ever.
"Look at those muscles," said the
first young man. "Look at the muscles
m that leg. You can fairly count 'em."
And the pretty girl turned very red
indeed as it dawned upon her that the
two admiring young men were dis
cussing the lioness in the cage.

PAIN OPENED HER SKULL
Mrs. Lasher's Remarkable Story— Dr. Qroene's Nervura
Cured Her.
MRS. FRED. C. LASIIER, JR.
The case of Mrs. Fred. C. Lasher, Jr., a well-known woman of Wcstport,
N. Y., is one of the most interesting on record. It is an actual fact that head*
aches caused her head to split.
' "For thirteen years," she says, "I suffered from terrible headaches night
and day, until the bones of my skull opened so that the doctor could lay his
thumb right into the opening on to my brain. Two doctors attended mo and
claimed that I was on the verge of insanity. I was under their care for nine
' years, but got no relief. Then I tried Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, and inside of a year the bones of my head had taken their natural
shape again."
That Mrs. Lasher's statements are true is vouched for by reliable men of
Westport, and by a Justice of the Peace there. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy cured Mrs. Lasher when all other remedies failed, and it cures
; thousands of suffering women every year. If your head aches, if you cannot
sleep and are weak and nervous, remember that this great curative agent, Dr.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, will make you well and strong.
Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is a physician's
prescription, formulated from a discovery after years of investiga*
tion and experiment. Dr. Greene, 35 West 14th St., New York City,
is the discoverer. He can be consulted free personally or by letter*
