HERD OF IRISH BULLS. Some* Mixed Metaphor* Credited to Sons of the l.merald IhIo. A collection of Irish bulls was published recently by a contemporary. Here are some of them, from Household Words. A certain politician, lately condemning the government for its recent policy concerning the income lax, is reported to have said: “They’ll keep cutting the wool off the. sheep that lays the golden eggs until they pump it dry.” “The glorious work will never be accomplished until Ihe good ship Temperance shall sail from one end of the land to the other, and with ti cry of ’Yietox-y!’ at each step she takes shall plant her banner in every city,town and villagein the United Kingdom." An Irishman,' in the midst of a tirade against landlords and capitalists, declared that “if these men were landed on an uninhabited island they wouldn’t be there half an hour before they* would have their hands in the pockets of the naked savages." Only a few weeks ago a lecturer at a big meeting gave utterance to the following: “All along the untrodden paths of the future we can see the footprints of on unseen hand.” An orator at one of the university unions bore off the palm of merit when he declared that “the British lion, whether it is roaming the deserts of India or climbing the forests of Canada. will not draw in its horns or retire into its shell.”

Indigestion is often taken for consumption. The word consumption means wasting away, and despeptics often waste away as badly as consumptives. The reason people waste away is because either they don’t get enough to eat, or they don’t digest what they do eat. If the later is your trouble, take Shaker Digestive Cordial. This will help you to digest your food and stop your loss of flesh. Shaker Digestive Cordial is made from herbs, barks and the juices of fruit, by the well known Shakers at Mount Lebanon. It possesses great tonic and digestive powers. Shaker Digestive Cordial has cured many supposed consumptives (who were really dyspeptics), by simply helping their stomachs to digest their food, thus giving them nourishment and new strength- Sold by druggists.

DUCKS CAUGHT IN DRIFT NETS. A Method Which In Itound to Regult Lu a Large Catch. Larpo numbers of ducks, unmarked by .hot or bullets, are Hold in the market every day by fishermen. The impression has always prevailed that tho birds were trapped, and so they are, says the Han Francisco Chronicle, but not in the fashion that oue miffht suppose. They sire taken by chance in drift nets out in the bay while the fishermen arc busily {rnthermp in the finny inhabitants of the deep. Anyone who has visited the fishermen's wharf could not but take nn interest in the pear spread out to dry. Tho most peculiar looking net is what is known as the “tremel-mcsh.” It consists of three nets, the larpest having meshes about eipht inches in diameter, and the smallest two or three inches. The nets are placed in the water overlapping" each other, the smallest drifting- in front. Small fish, in plunging about in the small mesh net, tumble through the larger meshes Of the big net, and become securely entangled in tho pockets thus formed. Ducks very often have the same fate. The net drifts down upon a flock feeding in shallow w ater, nnd as they dive for food they become entangled in the smaller net nnd are held secure until taken out by the owner of the net. In tins way hundreds of ducks are bagged and sold in the markets every day. The easiest place to take them is in San Pablo bay, where the water is shallow. Since the opening of the game season many fishermen have done a profitable business in ducks taken in ♦ his way. SETTLED THE BILL. A Hotel Keeper That I’referreU to Pay an Intended Suleide*. Fare. Suicides are. never wanted by hotel proprietors. Each one costs a hotel a considerable amount of money, am! for months the room in which it occurred is shunned. At one of the leading hotels of this city lately, says the Wasington Star, a guest acted strangely, and the proprietor made up Ids mind that the man was going to do something desperate. So one night he went to the guest’s room. There was no answer to his knocks, and the door was locked. A look over the transom showed his guest writing a letter, a pistol at one side and a bottle of poison at the other. “Lett me in or I’ll break open the door,” called the hmdiord. The door was opened after a little hurried work disposing of the things on tiie table. "I don't want any suiciding here,” said the landlord, entering. “Whut's the matter with you, anyway?” “Out of money, out of work and can’t get out of tow n,” sullenly said the guest. ‘‘Well, how much easlx will you take nnd agree to get out of town?” asked the hotel man. "I could get home for $20,” was the reply. “Here's the money; no-.v pack your grip and take the first train.” The man went. It was a good business transaction for the landlord.

PARET’S EXPERIENCE. The Illshop of Maryland Tells a Oood Story at HU Own Fxpens*. llisliop I’aret tells a good story, and at his own expense, says the Haltimore American. As it happened, lie was on a Washington train recently, and was seated in the immediate vicinity of a couple of men who were rather “under the weather,” ns the saying is. Presently one of the men, with u forcible expletive, remarked to the other that some one had robbed him of ii $20 bill. His friend remarked: “Oh, I guess not; you must have it about you somewhere.” Hut the other insisted that lie hadn't, and that he. had tiie bill when lie came aboard the train. Some one had robbed him, and ho proposed to find it if lie had to search the whole crowd. “As it liappened,” says Hishop Paret, “I had a $20 bill, and that was all, and as 1 was the nearest man to them, and the first likely to be approached, I felt a little uncomfortable. Then it occurred to me to pretend to be asleep. Sui'e enough, in a minute more I was accosted with: ‘Say, neighbor!’ Hut I made no answer. Then the man grabbed my arm and shook <ne, but to no use, os I didn’t wake up. He Rept on shaking, however, and always a little more forcibly, until at last his friend interposed with: ‘I say. Bill, let him alone, will you; he’s drunker'n you are!’” It Might Lome Handy. Nantucket is famous for auctions. They are held in the public square. Meat auction*, furniture auctions There are few tilings one cannot buy at auction if one bides one’s time. Whenever an old home is broken up or a resident leaves the island the unwanted effects are closed out at auction for whatever they will tiring. At the last one a x-efrigerator was put up. "Too late. The season’s over,” shouted some one in the crowd. “But there'll be another, nnd perhaps a hot one,” said the auctioneer. “Hut one may die before that,” said the other. “Well,” replied the auctioneer, “if you die you'll be sorry that yoxx hadn’t bought a re frigerator and taken it along with you I” French ISlne Laws. One of the most curious applications of a Sunday law is reported from a French town, where a wheelman was arrested for repairing the tire of his wheel on the road on Sunday and condemned to pay a fine of 25 francs ($5). The defense of the wheelman claimed the absolute and immediate necessity of repairing a punctured tire being a proper motive for doing the work. Which did not need tho assistance of any professional laborer nnd which should not come under the law of Sunday rest. The court took a different view, however,and sentenced the wheel-

man.

HIDDEN BY VERDIGRIS Au Exxyptiun Vena. <!<• Milo In the Viallery of the Louvre. An Egyptian statue, the finest of the kind existing, and as a work of art ranking with the Venus of Milo and the Venus de Medici, lias just lieen discovered in the Egyptian gallery of the Louvre, almost by accident, it is in bronze, says the Boston Traveler, and U the portrait of a queen of the 13tli dynasty, named Karomnua. This statue was covered with a thick coating of verdigris, which concealed its most striking beauties, so the visitors constantly passed it without even susl>ectii)g what a treasxire was lie fore

them.

An almost invisible trace of gold having been detected on the surface, it was thought 'that perhaps some gilding lay under the verdigris, and the statue, was scraped u little with extreme care. Something was brought to view far different from gilding. When the beautiful queen was relieved from her verdigris she was found to be clothed in a robe damascened in gold and silver. The workmanship is of the most exquisite description, surpassing any thing known in ancient or modern art. Indeed, the artists in work of the kind in Paris often stand for hours before tlds marvel in an ecstasy of admiration anti despair. The face has a earessing fixity of purpose, not unlike that of the wonderful Venus of Milo in the sane* building, but even greater delicacy of outline. It sets one dreaming as to its meaning nnd mystery. VERY PRIVATE TELEPHONES. They Are Rented In Ncir York by the Extremely Wealthy. Strangers in New York city, who may have occasion to speak on the telephone with one or other of the most distinguished social lights of the city, are apt to be annoyed at not being able to get the right telephone number. When tiie “central" is asked for the number she asks in reply if you don't know it. When you reply that you can’t remember it or have lost the memorandum, she will answer back: “We cannot give you Mr. Croesus Vanderbilt's bouse unless you know the number.” The truth is, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch, that the girl would lie breaking strict rules of the company if she gave this information. Many of tiie millionaires and prominent society people have telephones in their residences. but only for private use. The mistress of tiie mansion makes known tiie number only to particular friends, and in exchange receives their xninibers. She also leaves her number with the head of the hospital where she happens to be on the managing committee. Such families put telephones into their palaces only on tiie proviso that' their names and telephone numbers shall not appear in tiie directory. This exclusive system is adopted in order to prevent tiie annoyance of being constantly rung up by outsiders. A GIGANTIC STRUCTURE. A IXnllding with u Floor Area of fiOl.BOO Square Feet. The industrial exposition of Berlin, which will take place in 1890, is rapidly assuming shape. Almost all the buildings are under roof, and the ax-tisans are now busy with the exterior and interior decorations. The main buiffling of the exposition is enormous. It has a front of 070 feet, while its depth is 690 feet. The floor space of this gigantic building is 591,800 square feet. The entire construction is of stone and iron, while the walls are constructed of pressed cement boards. The only wood in the building is used in the floors and in the framework of the dome, which, both on the outside and inside, is covered with sheets of aluminium. The main building is so arranged that, after passing two spacious halls to the right and left*of the entrance, an immense center lisll 5.'t5 feet long by 80 feet wide divides the building through its entire depth. To tiie right nnd left from this center hall there are 13 wings on each side, eaeli 150 feet in length and 50 feet in width. An Executive Heart. A man whose heart has in the past 20 months traveled from the left to tiie right side of his body, is a patient in the Alameda, Cal., county infirmary, and ids case is greatly interesting the physicians. Tiie patient is Frederick Moran, 30 years old. He had no tr-oubie of any kind with his heart until 20 months ago, when it began to work toward the right side of his body. Tiie physicians say ids heart is now at the extreme of the x-iglit side of ids body. He has suffered great pain since tiie trouble began, but is now almost well, apparently. Tiie superintendent of tiie infirmary says that tills is only tiie third case of the kind he ever lieaxxl of.

Grant, and they are placed at the opposite sides of tiie larg" arch. It is stated that after a long search for suitable models for the Larses, during which the saddle horses at West I’oint and the prize horses of various shows were examined, tho artists derided upon A. J. Cassatt's saddle horse Clinker for Gen. Grant, and Billy, a western horse, owned by one of tiie artists, for the Lincoln statue. The ■work is said to be very spiriteil and the general effect excellent. The Old Endy Knew. A Methodist paper says that three brotlmrs who were preachers made a visit to their mother. One of them said: “Do you not think, mother, that you ruled with too rigid a i'<xl iu our boyhood? It would have been better, I think, had you used gentler methods." The old lady rose to her full height and replied: “Well, William, when you have raised up three as good preachers as I have then you cun talk.”

INNER MAN. Fusion Sarce.ilH In \ lewing Him with the NMt*d l ye. New York, March 23.—Mr. Edison last Friday succeeded in penetrating the human body with the nuked eye, according to the New York Journal. He looked into the heart and lungs, and examined the arteries, the blood vessels and muscles of oue of his assistants. Mr. Edison has, perhaps, reached the crowning glory of his life—he has opened the door which at once revolutionizes and incalculably widens the horizon of the medical world. The great inventor lias laid bare to the eye of tiie physician and the surgeon every organ and tissue and bone of the human body. The simplest mind can grasp what this means iu the diagnosis, the treatment and tiie actual observation of the progress of internal diseases. It is very simple to Mr. Edison. With tiie powerful cathode light behind his patient, he gazes through a screen of prepared chemicals and sees every organ of the body as plainly as he sees the dishes on his dinner table. Mr. Edison is now completing a fluorescent screen eight feet high, which will enable him to see these things from the top of one’s head to the sole of his feet. The fluorescence substance used by Mr. Edison, and declared by him to be the most powerful thing of the kind discovered so far, is tungstate of calcium—in other words, tungstate of lime.

The production of whiakev in Kentuclytn November and December, 1X9 ), was double that of the same perio l of 1894.
