SAPOLIO IS LIKE A GOOD TEMPER, "IT * SHEDS A BRIGHTNESS EVERYWHERE."

Versified Excuses.

“Bill Blue of Number Two,” the engineer who made a rhymed report of an accident, reminds a correspondent of a freight conductor who dropped into poetry when his own train was in trouble. “Number Eight” is the fastest eastbound train on one of the great trunk lines. Nothing is more annoying to the authorities of the road than to have this train delayed, even for five minutes, by inferior trains. But it happened that it was once detained for fifteen minutes at Friendship, New York—a little town on the Allegheny division—by a west-bound freight Tho delay was of course reported by the conductor of Number Eight to the superintendent at Hornellsville, and the superintendent immediately telegraphed the guilty freight conductor, asking why the “flyer” had been detained. The freight conductor, a wag with a turn for rhyme, sent back the following reply: The wind was high; the steam was low; The train was heavy and hard to tow; The coal was poor, ’twas mostly slate— Hence the detention of “Number Eight.” But the conductor’s “poem” did not sftve him from doing penance—ten days off duty, without pay.—Youth’s Companion.

Business Announcements.

Sometimes advertisements are funny enough to deserve gratuitous circulation. The following are from England, but they will be appreciated by readers in this country: Two menageries recently arrived in a border town, one of which was under the management of Signor -——, and the other under that of his wife, travelling respectively on their own account. Here they decided to unite forces, and the fact -was intimated on the bill thus: “Owing to the arrival of my wife, my collection of ferocious wild animals Is considerably augment.” This was the work of a foreigner. It is thought to have been fairly outdone by a native who hung out the following from a traveling exhibition of waxwork:

“The public is invited to see Her Most Gracious Majesty, Queen Victoria, In waxwork, as large as life, and other curiosities.”

The Grape’s Curions Flower.

Ever notice the curious flower of the grape? Beatrix will wager her favorite bonnet that not one in twenty who eat grapes with gratitude every autumn could name the peculiarity of its diminutive bloom. The unopened flower looks like a little balloon. The ballooon-shaped portion is the corolla; the calyx Is a rim or disc at its base. When the flower opens the petals break away below, or at the base of the balloon. They cohere at the top, shielding the stamens, and thus the flower is said tn be “hooded.” When the flower is fully expanded this cap or hood falls off, leaving the five bare stamens.

OIL SPRINKLER FOR ROADS.

Au Attachment for a Common Wagon Holding a Barrel. Recently civil engineers have given considerable attention to the application of oils to the roadbeds of electric and wagon roads. The idea of using oil bn roadbeds originated with the steam railroad corporations. The purpose was to prevent dust and foreign matter rising from the roadbed and getting into the bearings and gearing of the rolling stock. But several other beneficial results were obtained. After a roadbed is sprinkled with a surfacing of oil the loose matter is not only so weighted and caked that it cannot rise and envelop wagons or carriages behind In a cloud of dust, but the bed itself is strengthened. The oils form with the earthy matter to a depth of three to five inches, according to the treatment, and such parts of the bal-

OIL SPRINKLER.

last as are penetrated by the oils assume a crusty condition, which is impregnable to rain and in a great measure is impregnable to frost This state of the roadbed is* highly serviceable. Under ordinary conditions the earth as it naturally exists in a carriage road is porous enough to receive and ertain oil to a depth of several inches. As oil and water do not combine, the moisture is driven off and the earth becomes compact to such an extent that any future deluge of water simply flows off over it. In order to build up an oil-saturated surfacing of this type certain operations are followed. Some have gone to considerable expense in the direction of sprinkling devices for this work, while others use a simple oil sprinkling pipe leading from a cask or oil barrel, which is conveyed over the road on a wagon. This barrel is provided with the necessary controlling devices, which are connected with a lever regulated by the driver. A form of sprinkling apparatus is joined to the bottom of the tank, as in the illustration, and this sprays the oil over the roadbed. Several trips are made, until the ballast is saturated near the top, after which the crust forms, which will last for years before another treatment is needed. Cheap grades of crude petroleum are used.

The drawing shows the plan usually adopted for distributing oil over dirt roads. It consists in placing a barrel of crude oil, on blocks, upon a common wagon, which is drawn over the sections of the road which are to receive the oil. The barrel is placed bung down, and the pipe A is screwed in. This pipe can project downward through the wagon bottom or drop to the ground over the rear. The connecting pipe is joined with the distributer, B. The latter is simply a perforated pipe. If a road surface eighteen feet wide is to be covered, one barrel of crude oil will do for about eighty feet in length.

She Let Him Wear a Nightcap.

To the Earl of Essex was granted the privilege of wearing a nightcap in the royal presence of Queen Mary, says the New York Telegram. The fact is mentioned in Miss Strickland's “Lives of the Queens of England” as being one of the odd rewards bestowed by Mary upon her friends after her accession. The Earl was a valetudinarian and had a great fear of uncovering his head. Considering, therefore, that the colds he dreaded respected no person, he petitioned Queen Mary for leave to wear his nightcap In her royal presence. The Queen not only gave him leave to wear one, but two nightcap* if he pleased. His patent for this prilvlege is unique in royal annals: “Know ye that we do grant to our well-beloved and trusty cousin and councillor, Henry, Earl of Sussex, license and pardon to wear his cap, coif or nightcap, or any two of them at his pleasure, as well in our presence as in the presence of any other person within this realm, or in any other place In our dominions whatsoever during his life; and theoe our letters shall be sufllcient warrant in his tebalf.”

Thfc Queen's seal, with the garter above it, was affixed to this singular grant. Three persons In Great Britain alone enjoy the privilege of remaining covered in the royal presence, namely: Lord Forester, Lord Kinsale, and the master of Trinity College, Cambridge.

Prussian Millionaires.

At the head of the list of the big millionaires of Prussia stands M. Rothschild with £10,740,000, and an income of about £350,000. In one year his fortune Increased by more than £500,000. After him comes M. Krupp with £6,400,000 and an income of £450,000. After them come two landed proprietors with £4,260,000 and £3,200,000 respectively, and a third with £3,000,000. —Durham Observer.

Set strawberry Plants Early.

All the fruit from strawberries next year must have the buds formed the previous season. Hence, the earlier the plantation is made the better chance it will have to produce a good crop. August planting is sometimes advised so that the plants can be rooted during the rains that usually come in September.

STARTLES THE PICKANINNY.

Phebe Ann Greatly Worried Over Moving Trees. She is only a little black pickaninny ▼ho lives down in Georgia. She is under a donen yean In age, and until a short time ago had passed all of her life on a rural plantation. Trains and their attendant movements were utterly unknown. Indeed what Phebe Ann knew of anything outside of that plantation would not make the beginning of a primer. She was being educated for a house servant, and hence was not permitted to roam to any great extend She was busy about the big house all day, and at night retired to the shack set apart for her family. Along in the season, for some good reason, it became necessary for the family to move into a city. The little negro girl was wanted, for she had much skill In soothing the childish woes of the heir to the estate. So It was decided that she must accompany the expedition. From the time she entered the carriage to ride to the railway station Phebe was In a state of She sat beside “Miss Amy," as she called her mistress, and with staring eyes took in all that passed without comment. When she was taken into the train her wonderment was amazing. She sat gingerly on the cushions, looked out of the window and generally seemed uncertain concerning the possibilities of the future. She was silent until the train commenced to move. Then her tear took shape. She saw the landscape passing rapidly before her, and her eyes filled, her lip quivered and she snuffled audibly. “What’s the matter, Phebe Ann?” asked her mistress. “Oh, Miss Amy,” wailed the pickaninny, “whah all dem bouses and trees a-goin' at?” A seat on the floor was the only means possible to quiet the fears of the child.—Louisville Dispatch.

A Helping Hand To all Suffering Women. * In addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con- \ siding your private ills to a woman —a woman whose experience in treating woman’s diseases is greater than that of any living person —male or female. You can talk freely to a woman when it is revolting to '• late your private troubles „ to e man; besides a man does not understand — MgfigS simply because he is a man. Fl Many women suffer vjQ in silence and drift ' ’ ’WBRa iuK along from bad to \ t ~jr l worse, knowing ” full well that they \ — ought to have \LX \ immediate assist- Y ance,but a natural 1 modesty impels JwspSf them to shrink ¥ from exposing -- themselves to the questions and f probably exami- ITI nations of even I WvJ their, family phy- | I sician.

A womaa can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established the eternal confidence between Mrs, Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks nothing in return except your good-will, and her advice has relieved thousands. Surely any woman, rich or is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance. The present Mrs. Pinkham’s experience in treating female ills is unparalleled; for years she worked side bjr side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and for some years past has had sole charge of the correspondence department of her great business, treating by letter as many as a hundred thousand ailing women a year.
