A Man Who Saved Five Cents.

Some years ago, before the street railroad companies of Washington adopted the bell punch system on their oar?, a very amusing incident occurred on the Pennsylvania Avenue Line. At that time, as undoubtedly is still the case, enough members of Congress held passes over the street car lines of the city to prevent unfavorable legislation. The car was well filled with passengers from the Capitol on their way up town at the close of the day’s session, and the car had reached the foot of the hill before the conductor had reached the rear platform in his collection of fares. Next the door sat a sharp-looking gentleman, absorbed in the evening paper, and ns thb conductor held out his hand for the customary nickel the passenger looked up and nodded in a knowing sort of way, as if to intimate that it was all right; but the conductor still waited with outstretched hand, as if utterly oblivious of the meaning of the nod. Finally the passenger said: “I have a pass,” at the same time hunt ng in his pocket for a bit of pasteboard which was to save him the five cents. After careful search he failed to find the pass, having left it at home. “My name is ,” he said, mentioning the name of a well-known New England member of Congress, and since a member of the Cabinet. The conductor was strangely atllicted with deafness at that particular time, and failed to hear, or pretended not to hear the name. “What did you say?” he asked. Again the name was repeated, this time in a louder tone of voice. But the affliction of the conductor was of such a serious nature that he could not catch the name, and it was again repeated. By this time the attention of the other passengers on the car had been attracted by the controversy, and the situation flashed across some of them who understood that Congressmen carried five cent passes, and iuterest was growing in the case. Again the name was asked. “What name did you say ?” And the passenger this time shouted it in loud enough tones that the passengers all caught it, and the conductor, having accomplished his purpose of making the matter as public as possible, said : “Oh, all right,” and retreated to his station on the rear of the car. The passengers who had paid their fare looked in astonishment at the man who would expose himself to avoid the payment of so small a sum as five cents.— Philadelphia News.

Results of Sanitary Work.

It is reasonable to hope that tlie average duration of human life may be largely and permanently and the ills to which it is subject correspondingly abated, as the progress of sanitary science reveals the sources of diseases and provides the means for successfully attacking them.. An example of what has already been accomplished in this direction is given by the Sanitary Plumber. That paper says: The population of Birmingham, England, was, in 1871, 344,980, or forty-one persons to the 427,709, or fift.y-onW to an acre. It is an axiom in the history of centers of population that deaths increase with the density of population, but in that city the number of deaths in 18'/1 was 8,594; in 1885 that number was 8,150, numerically less, despite the increase of ten persons to the acre of space. Had the deaths for 1885 been the average of three years, 1873-75, it would have been 11,121. The saving of life, as shown by the diminished deaths since 1875, as compared with the three years ending 1885, was fully 17,715, the money value of which, on Dr. Farr’s estimate of the average value of human life, was £2,810,085, to which, of even more value, add improved average of public health. This result is clearly traceable to the sanitary work of the last ten years.— Exchange. ”

Thf, Michigan Central Railroid is preparing to build ferry-boats that will run, winter and summer, across the Straits of Mackinac. Of course, there is much ice there in winter, and to get. through the ice each boat %ill have a screw-wheel at each end, the stern wheel to have one-third greater power than the bow wheel. When running through comparatively clear water or • smooth ice the bow wheel will pull and the stem wheel will push. Its crushing power will be immense, and its projectors say that it will walk through ice two or feet thick with perfect ease. When it meets the great floes, so common in the Straits, it is expected that the front pcrew will push the boat back and the rear screw will push her ahead. The greater strength of the rear screw will push the boat up against the floe, while the powerful currents circling ahead from the front screw will wash a passage in the floe and allow the ferry-boat to run through. A committee of French electricians, to which was referred the question of protecting from lightning the high steel observatory tower at the Universal Exposition soon to be held in Paris, decided that it would itself be a gigantic lightning rod, and that if only care were taken to maintain adequate metallic connection with earth deep enough to be permanently moist, not only would those inside it be perfectly safe during the most violent thunderstorm, but everything near it and for a considerable distance around it would be protected. The earth plates will be of copper and will be connected with each angle at the base of the tower by substantial cables. The top is to have a tall copper rod with a gilded point. Thebe are several new houses in New York City that are only fifteen feet wide. A large and pleasant entrance hall, with a fireplace and ornamental staircase, occupies the whole width.of the house and extends twentytwo feet back. The kitchen is in the rear, and the parlor and dining-room on the second story.— Chicago Times. The popularity of the ulster is probably owing to the fact that you can wear it longer than any other garment.

THE WITCH’S FATE.

A Cruel Prejudice of Old Time* More Than Equalled Now. Not many decade* ago in this country the people were excited over witchcraft, Persons suspected were thrown into the water; it not witches, they would drown; if they wero witches, they would swim ashore and would be put to death! In any evout they wero doomed. Not many years ago if a person were taken sick witli'advaneed disorder of the kidneys the physician wonld pronounce the disease Bright’s disease, and wheu so declared he regarded nis responsibility at an end, for medical authority admitted that the disease was incurable. v , Wheu the physician fonnd a patient thus afflicted ho would say, “Oil, a slight attack of the Kidneys; w.ll be ail right in a Tittle while. ” He knew to the coutrary. But if he couljl keep his patient on h s hands for a few months lie knew he would derivo a great revenue from his case, and then, wheu the disease had progressed to a ceriain stage, he would state the facta and rotiro, exonerated from all blame, But the error of supposing tho disease incurablo has swayed the public mind long after the fact has ceased to bo. But public opinion has l>een edueatod to the true status or the case by those who have discounted the incurability theory, aitd the public recognizes and test.lies to the fact that Warner’s safo cure is a specific for this discaso. This has been shown with thousands of testimonials. Upon referring to them in our silos we find that 53,000 reward will Ik> given to any one who can prove that so far as the manufacturers know they are not genuine, and that hundreds of thousands similar in character could bo published if it were necossary. ’ This condition of things is very amusing to the journalist, who looks upon all sides of every question. Proof should bo accepted by all, but prejudice fights proof for many years. It seems strange that when a proprietary medicine is doing ihe good that Warner’s sale cure is that the physicians do not publicly indorse it. Many of them, we are tolj, privately prescribe it A few years ago, as stated, when a man had Bright’s disease, the doctor boldly announced it, because he thought it relieved him of responsibility. To-day when prominent people are dying (and hundreds of thousands of common people die of the same disease), we are told that doctors disguise tho fact that it is Bright’s diseaso of the kidneys, and say that they die of paralysis, of apoplexy, of pneumonia, of consumption, of general debility, of rheumatism, of heart disease, of blood poisoning, or some other of tho names of the direct effects of kidney, disease. They are not tho real disease itself. We somotimes wonder if they avoid stating tho real cause of disease for fear they wifi drive the public into patronage of the only scientific proprietary specific for kidney disea ms and the thousand and ouo diseases that originate in inactive kidneys. We do not believe every advertisement.we read Some people perhaps may regard this article as an advertisement aud will not believo it, but we are candid enough to say that we believe the parties above mentioned have stated their case and ( roved it, and under such circumstances tho public is unwise if it is longer influenced by adverse prejudice.

An Iowa Ghost Hoax.

Some years ago, says tho Davenport Gazette, a little town in lowa became greatly excited over a succession of strange sights and noises which had occurred in Horse-Thief Grove, where two criminals had once been buried. The reports ran that at 12 o’clock every Friday night, blue and white lights were seen to rise from tlie graves, and disappear in the branches of the trees above. An enterprising peddler, spending a night in the town, determined to investigate the ghostly phenomena ; and, having provided himself with a pistol, slipped down to the grove. An eager and expectant crowd stood on a hill at a convenient distance, waiting tb see the lights; and, says the investigator, I made up my mind to give them an afterpiece that night, as I lay snugly concealed under the bushes near the graves. I did not have long to wait before I heard the sounds I had been expecting —the trampling of feet near me. Looking up cautiously, I beheld the sons of my host, two very mischievous lads, carrying a rope and a lantern with hbie and white glass. Everything was plain, to me now. The boys would creep up a narrow and deep ditch to the graves. By the aid of a rope running over a pulley fastened in the trees, they could run the lantern up and down while concealed in the brush some distance off, relying on the superstitious’fear of the others to prevent discovery.

Justice Was Satisfied.

The chief of the Clierokeo Indians is named Mackintosh. I am told that Mackintosh’s sense of justice is unusually just, but (rule in its method of expression and execution. Once upon a time, under the rule of the gentle Mackintosh, a Cherokee Indian stole a horse. The horse disappeared about the same time as the suspected Indian. The evidence was circumstantial, and it was with grave doubts that the “Mackintosh” sentenced the accused to twenty lashes and a term of imprisonment. After the lashes, and during the imprisonment, it was found out that another Indian, who had been the principal Witness against' the man, was the real thief. lie was sentenced to execution and executed. Then it came to the consideration of the case of the Indian who had been punished for a crime he did not commit.,. Long and arduously did the chief study over the problem of recompense. At last the Indian was sent for, and the Mackintosh, with a beam of satisfaction, expressed his regret for the mistake, and said: “Now you go and steal a horse.” And justice was satisfied. A drudge Against the Minister. “Where’d you get your black eye, Jimmy?” asked one newsboy curiously of another. “That comes o’ goin’ to church, ” said Jimmy. “Last Sunday the minister kept tellin’ us in his sermon that we must help the fallen. .Well, I didn’t know any fallen. Still.. I wanted to do the square things so 1 happened to think I’d make some. It didn’t take me long, I put g cake of soap on the back stairs where the hired girl comes down. She came down pretty soo i. Then when I rushed to help the fallen, 6he up and gave me this black eye.” “You don’t say so!” sympathetically exclaimed Ibe other newsboy. . “I do, though,” said Jimmy, “and I’d tell you something on the dead quiet. I’m layin’ for that minister now!”— Somerville Journal. , “There is something inexpressibly touching ia the fallen leaves,” sighs an esteemed author. There is, there is.

An Embarrassed Boarder.

I “I honestly declare I never felt so : really ashamed in all my life,” said the . too-sweet traveling man to a near acI qnaintance, “as I did the other night | You know, I’ve been boarding up on | Michigan avenue, andj you know, I 1 didn’t happen to think of the rent for i two or three weeks; maybe it was four | or five; anyhow, Inoticed that thelandJ lady’s daughter—she’s a real sweet girl, i the landlady’s daughter is. She never plays the piano after 9 o’clock p. m., and she never talks about things a fellow can’t understand. As I was saying, I noticed a chilliness about her that made me want to go to an ice-house and get warm. I thought maybe I’d I better show the young lady some polite attention, so I asked if she would go to the theater some ovening.” “What did she say?” “Why, she said she’d ask her ma; so she left the parlor, and in a few minutes came back again. “ ‘Did your ma consent?’ I inquired. “‘Not exactly,’she said; ‘ma says that you’d better just hand me the money for the tickets and supper and car-fare, and let it go on your board bill.’ “It made me terribly angry, but of course I couldn’t say anything.” “ Well, have you settled the bill yet ?” “Er-no; no, but I’m thinking real seriously about moving.” Merchant Traveler.

Practical Education.

You can always tell a college boy by his conversation. He quotes too much classics for a sculler without knowing enough for a scholar. When quoting Latin he reminds me of a child with a new toy. General education is a good thing. That’s why I’m opposed to colleges. The boy who can go through college without forgetting how to speak English and without learning how to bang his hair is sure to make his mark. He has a solid kernel about him somewhere. Some colleges teach their boys how to play Greek comedies. If they would only turn out a few good American actors they would be blessed, by a long-suffering public. I will put the boy who has a knowledge of Webster against the one who knows all the dead languages ever buried every dly in the week and let him rest on Sunday.— Philadelphia Call.

Wretched, Indeed,

Which Reminds Us.

The Boston Herald is willing to admit that Miss Bose Cleveland is “a woman of talent,” but it questions whether she will be able to achieve permanent recogntion in literature. This reminds us of the remark which Dr. Samuel .iohnson made about the Scotch. “Much,” said he, “much can be made of a Scotchman—w hen caught young. ’’—Chicago Mail.

To Southern Home-Seekers.

The advance in price of Western lands, the increased severity of Northern winters, and the consequent high prico of fuel, has turned the attention of farmer*, homu-soekor*, and others of delicate constitution to the mild climafiy cheap fuel, and low-priced lands of file South. Northern farmers, unacquainted with sugar-cauo and cotton growing, have asked the question, Wfry cannot fruit-growing and stock-raising be made to pay in the South? To discuss these questions, so important to those seeking homes in the South, agricultural conventions have been held of late in Tennessee, Mississippi, and Louisiana, and it has been proven beyond a doubt that diversified farming can be carried on in the South even more profitably than in tbe North. Lands arc being seeded down, creameries built, and Northern methods of farming quite generally introduced. Tbe result of all this has turned the tide of emigration Southward, and the Illinois Central Railroad, the direct line be- 1 tween Chicago and New Orleans, and the direct route to the principal markets of the South, West, and North, have Shown their confidence in the"agncultural poss bilities of the South by naming the following convenient land points, viz: Jackson, Telia ; Aberdeen and Jackson, Miss., and Hammond, La.
