Morbid Craving After Sympathy.

Carious instances are related of this attitude of mind. A young lady ■once waited upon a surgeon for treatment ■of a wound upon the arm. He gave her a lotion and on ointment, neither of which had any beneficial effect. The origin and ■the obstinacy of on apparently trifling injury puzzled the doctor. At last he had 'the curiosity to take a piece of the black onatter that covered the wound and sub* mit it to analysis. To his astonishment he found it nothing more than licorice •or Spanish juice. Once upon the right iscent, he made inquiries tnat confirmed his theory, and was soon able to inform •the mother that her daughter made the wound by scratching the skin deep enough to draw blood and then rubbing in Spanish juice. The lady, naturally indignant that her child should seem an impostor, <wrote the surgeon down a fool, and consulted a specialist. She came soon afterward to apologize to the local practition■er, and to await with patience the result of a firm course of treatment, which removed her daughter’s craving for sympathy, and with it any reappearance of the self-inflicted wound. At Atlanta, Tuesday, two well-dressed men stopped on the comer of Broad and Marietta streets and began pointing upward, one of them often pointing to a telephone wire with his cane, as if trying to make his companion see something he was looking at. The other shaded his -eyes with his hands, but shook his head, at which the first man mentioned caught him by the arm and led him backward a few steps. They kept up their antics until a big crowd collected. Finally, when asked, they said: “We were just experimenting to see how many gaping idiots we could collect in ten minutes.” An incandescent lamp arrangement for •showing the interior of boilers while under steam has been made by a German inventor. The device is likely to be of .practical as well as of scientific value. “I’M going to feed that hen of mine on eugar of lend.” “What an idea!” “I want to see if I cnn’t make a typesetter of her.”— Harper’ B Bazar.

Some years ago one of the present Congressmen from New York State and his brother were exam ning the stock of a pawnshop in London in the hope of picking up some curiosities. They came across a necklace of green glass beads, which the New York man purchased for $2.50, intending to bring it home to his little daughter. The brother was surprised to find in the shop the counterpart of the necklace, which he brought home to his little girl. Two months later the latter showed her gift to a jeweler, who pronounced the glass beads to be emeralds, and who sold them afterward for several thousand dollars. The member of Congress, upon hearing this, took his necklace to the same dealer, who pronounced it to be composed of glass beads. The London pawn-dealer had purchased them of a thief who had stolen them from a wealthy woman. The latter kept the emeralds in a safe and wore their glsss counterparts. Of course no one could tell the difference when the necklace encircled her throat.

Poor Humanity!

The common lot is one of sorrow say—at least —the pessimists, they who look at the worst side. Certainly what would otherwise be a bright existence, is often shadowed by some ailment that overhangs it like a pall, obscuring perpetually the radiance that else would light the path. Such an ailment, and a very common one, is nervousness, or in other words,weakness of thn nervous system, a condition only irremediable where inefficient or improper means are taken to relieve it. The concurrent experience of nervous people who have persistently used Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is, that it conquers entirely supersensitiveness of the nerves, as well as diseases—so called—which are invited and sustained by their chronic weakness. As the norves gain stamina from the great tonic the trouble disappears. Use the Bitters for ma aria, rheumatism, biliousness and kidney troubles.

The fair venders of the IFar Cry in Bombay can bo cuttingly sarcastic when they like. At the Apollo Bunder recently one of them persuaded two repiesentatives of the genus masher to purchase a copy of the publication, and was about to ro on her way again, when one of her patrons remarked: “Now you’ll give us your blessing, won’t you?” Equal to the occasion, the lady replied: “May the Lord make your hearts as soft as your heads, gentlemen.”—Bombay Homeward Mail.

She Doesn’t Earn It.

“Dear me!” said old Mrs! Jimsonweed, as she laid down the paper, “here’s a piece that says Queen Victoria gets sl,950,000 a year for being Queen. Well, she don’t aim it, now, she jist don’t! I don’t keer how well she puts in her time; don’t keer how airly she gits up of a mornin’, nor how late she sets up nights darnin’ and mendin’; don’t keer how much dish-washin’ she does, nor how much batter she churns, nor how much soap she biles, nor how many geese she raises feathers from, nor how many calves she brings up by hand, nor how free of moths an’ bed-bugs she keeps old Windsor Castle. I’d like the chance to be Queen, an’ do it all for half the monev. Even then I wouldn’t aim no $2,000,000, an’ she don’t either—no, she don’t."— Drake’h Magazine.

According to Dr. S. S. Kilvington, the Mississippi River received during the past year 153,675 tons of garbage and offall, 108,250 tons of night-soil, and 3,765 dead animals, from only eight cities; the Ohio. 46,700 tons of garbage, 21,157 tons of night-soil, and 5,100 dead animals, from five cities; and the Missouri, 36,000 tons of gnrbage, 22,400 tons of nightsoil, and 31,600 dead animals, from four cities.
