Near the top of a giant rock-oak tree that has stood for a century on the mountain side below Tamaqua, Pa., there is a sunflower stalk, six feet high, crowned with three or four brilliant, full blown flowers.

Some Australian blacks who were imported for show purposes and are detained at San Francieco, are wonderfully clever with the boomerang. One of their most interesting performances is the throwing of the boomerang so as to describe the figure 8. One line crosses the other as quick as a flash, and the boomerang goes whistling through space, and finally comes back, after having proceeded many yards. Its movements are faster than that of a flying fish, and it strikes at the end of its journey with tremendous force. The Haidah Indians, of British Columbia, gamble with sticks of spruce wood, about five inches in length, carved or stained with totemic devices. The game is played by any number of persons. A “dealer” sits on the ground, with a pile of shredded cedar bark in front of him. and with much ceremony draws ©ut the sticks, one by one, without looking at them, and passes them to the players in turn, who sits in front of him. Each devices counts a certain number, and the winning is by high or low, or dilinite or specific amounts.

She is only eight years old, this small New Yorker, but nourished in a free-thinking family she has absorbed the agnostic theories of her elders; has decided opinions of her own—in short, is an out-and-out small atheist. For some time past she has been much interested in a little companion, a recent acquaintance, but, to the surprise of the family, recently she positively refused to accept a tea party invitation from the child. Being pressed for explanation she at last gave it: “Well, I’ll tell you why. I just can not play with her; she’s one of those common kind of children who believe in hell.”—New York Sun. The latest novelty in the dramatic line is a play in which cannibals are to be a feature, when produced at Vienna. Its author is Mr. Westmark, who has lived in Africa, and his play, “Among the Anthropophagi,” is an attempt to put on the stage something approximeting what he has seen in Africa. Stanley and DeBraza are among the characters, ind it they are true to life they will certainly have a quarrel before the play ends. The action commences in Brussels with the departure of ex- | plorers bound for the Congo. There j are scenes at Leopoldville and other j stations, but the crowning event is a t ba.:le with cannibals. 1

EARTHQUAKE WIVES. A Terrible AcooirijmnlnieVt of Earthquake. v Frederick D. Chester, In Got. St. IJJc.holan, While we usually think oi earthquakes as taking place on laud, they do, indeed, occur with equal devastation in the ocean. That point in the earth at which the explosion or breaking takes place is called the earthquake-focus; and from it what are known as earthquake-waves pass to the surface. What do these earthquakes resemble? Take a basin full of water, and dip a glass tube in it. Blow through the tube and you will see bubles rising to the surface, and circular waves passing out. The disturbance at the bottom of the basin corresponds with the explosion or snapping of the crust at the earth-quake-focus, with this difference that instead of water waves, the latter produces earth-waves, passing through the ground. When the city of Lisbon, Portugal, was destroyed, the earthquake took place in the bottom of the sea, fifty miles west of the city. Yet it so agitated the water that a wave sixty feet high dashed over Lisbon, destroying it and its inhabitants in a space of six minutes. Another earthquake, occuring just off the coast of Peru, made such a gigantic wave that a large vessel was thrown several miles inland. These are called earthquake waves. They are the largest known waves, and are caused by the heaving and rocking of the bed of the sea. In deep water such waves are not very high, but their motion extends far down into the ocean. When they reach shallower water, however, they heap up like a gigantic wall, and, with a force more terrible than fire or sword, they sweep on, bearing destruction with them. Huge ships are tossed like straws far inland, or mingle their ruin with that of a harbor town. Moderated Joy. Kansas City Times, Washington Letter. Speaking about the Washington eagerness to get the encampment, it might be said that some have already modified their tastes in that behalf. “True,” remarked one sorrowful person, “we got the encampment, and I was as crazy to get it as any one. But now when the children are driven out of their schools, when prices have doubled on grub and drinks, and this hubbub of preparation is dinning in my ears, I feel a good deal like one of old Jim Smiley’s heirs. “Old Smiley died worth about $G0,000, and undertook to dispose of it by will. As usual his heirs got into a wrangle, and a lawsuit was the outcome. Then came delay and dillydally. The lawsuit was continued term after term, session after session, until everybody was exhausted. “‘"Well, what’d they do down to court to-day, Bill ? ’ said one brother to another, who had just returned from a ten-mile drive to the county seat to look after the litigation. “ ‘Oh, they continued her agi’n. ’ said the other in a sort of desperate despair. “ ‘Bill, ’ said the first, sorrowfully shaking his head, ‘do you know I’m gettin’ that tired and" weary with them delays an’ continuances, I swow. I’m mighty near wishiu’ sometimes that dad hadn’t died. ’ ” Keep Off the Enemy. A foe -who lurks In ambush Is a more dangerous antagonist than one who attacks us in the open held, and for whose assaults we are in a measure prepared. That dangerous enemy to health, malaria, must be encountered I fully armed. Its thrusts are sudden, unex- ! pected and deadly, and can only be guarded against with certainty by fortifying the system by a course of defensive medication. The surest defense against chills and fevers, bilo is remittent, dumb ague and ague cake, is iiostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which is also an eradicator of the most obstinate forms of maaria which resist the action of ordinary specific, and the virus of which remains in the system even when the more violent symptoms arc subdued. Constipation, liver complaint, dyspepsia and kidney troubles are always relieved by this genial remedy. A new foreign idea is invisible microphones in cells to record the secret talk of prisoners. This is proving that walls have ears with a vengeance. A Practical Farmer. I received great benefit from the nse of Swamp-Root.

The sun has a way of adapting himself to ocean, lake, spring and dew drop and whatever our capacity we may see the sun in each and all,” so says a celebrated preacher. What is true in a general way is true also in minor particulars. It is true of the Laxative Gum Drops that can minister to the necessities of the tenderest child, or cure dpspepsia in the strongest man. These gum drops are mild and gentle, but perfect and certain in the action. There is no case of constipation no matter how obstinate they cannot cure. They should however be taken in doses from three to five every night before going to bed until the bowels are perfectly regulated. Taken in this wav they produce the best result without pain, griping or annoyance. They come in two sizes. The small size cost 10c, the large ones 25c. They can be obtained of any dealer. .
