All My Life I had that distressing disease, catarrh at the stomach.

Needless Task.

Authors have to submit to criticism of all sorts, humorous and otherwise. An amusing story is told in connection with Dr. Macknight, a Scotch clergyman who was the author of several books upon religious subjects which displayed his knowledge and studious research. Among his parishioners was a blacksmith who had a certain dry humor, of which he was by no means chary. This man, while he admired and loved “his pa’son,” thought the doctor’s writing learned books was a great mistake and a sad waste of time. One day this blacksmith was asked by a stranger if Dr. Macknight was then at the manse. “Na, na,” replied the blacksmith with a shake of his shaggy head, “the mon’s gone to Edinbro on a vera useless job.” The doctor had gone off to the printers with his learned and valuable work called “The Harmony of the Four Gospels.” The stranger inquired curiously what the “useless job” was which had takefi the doctor to Edinburgh at that time. “Awed,” said the blacksmith, looking at his questioner sharply to see if his answer met with the appreciation It merited, “he’s gone to mak’ four men agree wha’ ne’er cast out!” A becoming decency of exterior may not be necessary for ourselves, but it Is agreeable to others.

A jury may now receive tangible proofs of absolute correctness of evidence submitted. It can follow the expert’s flight into unknown regions by meahs of illustrations; In fact it can see with its own eyes, where formerly it had been asked to make its observations through the eyes of another. To Illustrate the possibilities of photontlcrography, it may be mentioned that a man magnified microscopically In a camera would appear as high as Mount Washington. A drop of blood, a single hair, a particle of skin that may be found under the finger nails of a person suspected of murder—photomicrography will tell the tale. It will establish whether the bloodYourid is from a human being or mot, whether It Is from the person murdered or from that of the supposed murderer. Almost the same holds good with respect to hair. It can be determined whether the hair Is from a male or female; be It ever so small, it can be. matched with the hair of the suspected person. To fully appreciate this, It must be understood that human hair differs

A FIREMAN’S HELMET.

It Will Kimble a Man to Breathe Freely in Dense Smoke. The helmet shown in the accompanying illustration Is known as the Baden patent. Fire department chiefs are now testing it In several cities. In appearance, the Invention resembles a submarine diver’s helmet. The exterior surface is of asbestos, tanned leather,

or asbestos cloth, proof against lire, heat, steam, boiling water and all poisonous gases. The invention Is airtight, a supply reservoir at the back carrying 100 pounds pressure of compressed air. An air pump enables the wearer to recharge the helmet In forty seconds. Fresh air is continually forced into the helmet and foul air expelled. The eyelets, or lookouts, are made of clear mica and protected with cross wires. An ear-plate with a special diaphragm renders hearing perfectly distinct. A horn in front of the helmet enables the wearer to signal for assistance at any /time, and the weight of the helmet is but five pounds.

Killing a Bird.

To one who reads the signs of the times it Is apparent that a broader sympathy Is taking possession of men’s minds;, a feeling of kinship with every living creature; a conception that even the lowest animal has a right to life and to its place in the universe. That relic of barbarism known as the "hunter’s instinct,” which means nothing more thau a savage’s desire to kill something, is no longer held up to the childish mind as a trait to be admired and copied. The effect of this nobler * teaching is illustrated by an Incident which occurred in a suburban town near Bostou. A ten-year-old boy of Newtonville was given a toy gun by his father, who laughingly promised him a dollar for every crow he would shoot. Highly elated with his gun, and sanguine of earning a small fortune by shooting crows, the young sportsman spent the greater part of two days in a field watching for the black birds. Not a crow came near him, greatly to his disappointment, and he reported his 111-success to hid father, who said, to comfort him: “Well, never ‘mind the crows. I’ll give you half a dollar for any kind of a bird you can shoot.” Early the next morning the boy, gun in hand, took up his position in the back yard to watch for sparrows. A half dozen or more unwary birds soon appeared to pick up the crumbs which he had thrown out to lure them within the reach of a shot. At a movement on his part the sparrows rose, and the boy fired. One of the birds was hit and fell to the ground, where it lay for a minute fluttering its wings and then became motionless. The boy went forward, picked It up and looked at it. The poor little head hung limp—the shot had broken the sparrow’s neck. For a moment the boy stood contemplating the dead creature in his hand; then hs turned and fled to the house. “Oh, I've killed it! I’ve killed it, mammal” he cried, in a shocked tone. "It can’t fly any more!” and all that day Jils lament was, "Oh, I wish I hadn’t done it! I wish I hadn’t done it!” His father, who had not supposed the boy in any danger of hitting a bird, tried to solace him with the half dollar and suggestions of wlmt could be ■bought with it “No, papa,” was his sorrowful answer, “I don’t want it I wish it could make the sparrow alive again. I never thought It would be like that to kill a bird!” "And,” said his father, In concluding the story, “I was more pleased at the tender feeling my boy displayed than I should have been had he become the best shot In the State.”—Youth’s Companion.

Mrs. Burnett’s Frivolity,

“I was a great admirer of Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett," says a Chicago woman. “I had rend all her books and was actually crazy to meet her; so while I was In Boston I was offered the opportunity I long had sought I think I was the most disappointed person In all the world. Mrs. Burnett Impressed mo os being wholly absorbed with society; she was overdressed, and It was clear to me that she used cosmetics freely. During the half hour I spent with her she talked only of herself and of the little society frivolities of which she seemed to be completely enamored.”Chicago Record.

Looking Glass in a Coffin.

One of the ancient customs connected with Swedish funerals was to place a small looking-glass In the coffin of an unmarried female, so that when the last trumpet sounds she might be able to arrange her tresses. It was the practice for Scandinavian maidens to wear their hair flowing loosely, while the matrons wore It bound about the head and generally covered with some form of cap. Hence the unmarried woman was Imagined as awakening at the Judgment day with more untidy locks than her wedded sisters and more In need of a glass.

Shopman’s Clever Reply.

An Englleh lady i« told of, In the Spectator, who complained to a shopkeeper that, in sending parcels to her, he would address her as “The Honorable." “Don’t mention It, ma'am. It doesn’t signify at all.” “But it does signify. My parcels may go to the wrong person. I am not ’Honorable.’ ” “We, madam, have always found you so.” It is well to get clear of a Cold the first week, but it is much better and safer to rid • yourself of it the first forty-eight hours—the proper remedy for the purpose being Dr. D.

Dongbnuts Under Divers Names An old New Yorker says that “olekoeks” were made by the Dutch the same as doughnuts are mode, but a rasln was Inserted in the center of each. The art of making doughnuts Is said to have been learned by the New England people from the Hollanders during the stay of the Puritans In Holland. These sweet and wholesome cakes are known by many names nowadays and are made in various forms. The modem New Yorker calls them crullers, although the crullers he eats arc not nlways made according to the recipe for doughnuts. In some parts of the South they are known as Friday cakes, s name due partly to the fact that they are fried In lard and partly to the fact that where so called they are generally aiade on Friday.
