Here are a few "bulls" that have been perpetrated from time to time in the Austro-llungarian parliament: "One must important point of the ag ricultural question is the maintenance of the breed of horses to which I have the honor to belong." "We are here for the weal and woe of our constituents." "Gentlemen, consider this question in the light of a dark future." "The ye of the law weighs heavily oil our .yt'eoa legislation." "There* gentlemen, is the ever chang ing point of which the opposition has made a hobbyhorse." "This taunt is the same old sea ser pent which for years and years bus been groaning in this assembly." In American Hlntory. A traveler who has just returned from a vhMt to Matanzas says that he visited El Cumbre, a short distance from the city, and there was reminded of an incident in American history with which he was entirely unfamiliar and which lie is willing to bet not one American in a hundred knows any thing about, lie refers to the fact that a vice president of the United States took the oath of office there, being au thorized to do so by special act of con gress. El Cumbre means "the summit," and it was here that William Uufus King, vice president with Franklin Pierce, dying of consumption, was sworn into oillce March 24, 1853. I.onflno: and Working.

Tree Tliat Tnrna to Stone.
There is n tree that grows in Mexico
called the "chijol," or stone tree. It is I
of enormous proportions, both in cir
cumference and height. It has a num- I
her of branches spreading out widely |
and carrying leaves of a yellowish
green color. The wood is extremely fine
and easily worked in a green state. It
is not given to either warping or split
ting. The most remarkable thing übout
it is that after being cut the wood
gets gradually harder, and in the course
of a few years it is absolutely petrified
whether left ill the open air or buried
ill the ground. From this timber houses t
can be built that would in a few years
become completely fireproof and would '■ I
last as though built of stone.
Flrnt Railroad Charter.
The first charter ever granted in this
country or probably any other for the
building of a railroad was granted in
1810 to Henry Drinker by the Pennsyl
vania legislature for a road of that
kind from the Delaware valley to the
headwaters of the Lehigh river over
the route now occupied by the Dela
ware. Lackawanna and Western rail
road from the Water Gap to Scranton.
That was before the days of steam,
and the "wagons" that were to be run
on the road were to be moved by horse
power. That old charter and the
rights it conveyed were purchased by
the original Delaware uud Lackawan
na company for $1,01)0. . 1

One evening recently a well to do
bachelor volunteered to teach a sprlglit- I
]y young widow the game of checkers.
He <|Uite overlooked the possibilities of
the game.
"There, now; it's still your move," he
exclaimed to the lady shortly after the
game had commenced. "You have tak
en ouly one man, and you are bound to
take another."
"Thanks for your advice," said the
widow sweetly. "Suppose I take you,
then ?"
She did subsequently.

A Coatly Prayer nook.
Queen Elizabeth used to carry about

gave a representation of the judgment
of Solomon, the other the brazen ser

Would Not Insure Him.
Insuianoe Companies Refused
to Insure the liev. J. W.
Yeisley Because lie
Had Kidney Trouble.
This case is but one of thousands
where the head of 4 the house was refused
insurance, because ho had kidne)
trouble. Mr. Yeisley had given up In
despair when some friend recommended
Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Kerned)
and it cured him.
Mr. Yeisley writes:
"My kidneys and liver were in
bad condition and I was anxious for
relief. 1 had tried many remedies
without success and when I bought
a bottle of 'Favorite Remedy,' it
was with but little faith in its ever
helping me, but in a short time it
effectively proved its merit. Per
haps the best proof 1 can give that
it lias completely cured me Is to
state that I have since been accept
ed by four different life insurance
companies."
The Rev. Mr. Yeisley is the pastor of
the First Reformed church, of St. Paris,
Ohio, and is as well the editor of the St.
Paris Dispatch.

and surest medicine in the world for dis
eases of the kidneys, liver, bladder arid
blood, rheumatism, dyspepsia and
chronic constipation, as well as the
weaknesses peculiar to women. It

when passing urine and corrects the
bad effects of whiskey and beer. It is
