AN OVERWORKED PHRASE. The Expression He Took His Life l His Hasdo." "The expression "be took bS life in bis hands" always struck rut? as being very foolish," said a bright young gentleman, "and I nave of tea wondered why so tuauy persons persist in using it when they want to speak of extraordinary dangers. Now. extraordinary danger is one thiujr and tbe simple, commonplace tbing of taking one's own life in one's bands is an entirely diSer ent thin?. "I work in a bis building. Tbere are a Bteaui engine and a mammoth boiler in the basement. V believer 1 enter that building, if they are running the

engine in the basement. 1 take my lite In my hands. I get on the elevator on

the fifth floor; I take my life in my

bands. I go out of town; the car

may tumble over a trestle somewhere. I walk along the street; a sign may

fall cn me. I make my way across tbe

thoroughfare; who knows but what

a street car or a vehicle of some sort

may not run me down? I cross tbe river; may I not suddenly find myself in the swirling stream and sinking for tbe last time? If I walk along the street, may not a brick or a loosened cornice come crashing down upon me? There are a row and a shot or two on tbe corner; may not a stray bullet wing me? And so on. Tessimism? No. Logic. That's all. It just shows tbe difference between taking one's own life in c:e's band and the matter of confronting extraordinary danger. These risks are ordinary, plain, eld, everyday risks. The fireman who dashes into a burning building to rescue a child, tbe fellow who grabs the bridle of a runaway horse, tbe hero who will plunge Into the river to save some person who la about to drown these are tbe persona who confront what 1 would call extraordinary dangers, and tbe worn platitude of saying of one of these "be took bis life in bis bands' would not fit tbe case because tliere would be In the act an element of heroism which would place It much above the commonplace." New Orleans Times-Democrat.

HOYT'S JOKE ON M'KEE.

How (he Plarwrighl Had Bit of Fan Witb His MsnsKPr. On one occasion Manager McKee was watching a performance from a box, where be was seated witb some friends. During the first act an usber came to him with tbe information that a gentleman was waiting at tbe door to see bitn on most Important business. "Tell him I can't come out I'm very busy," was the answer. The usher returned In a moment to say that tbe man insisted on seeing Mr. McKee, who again sent out word that it was impossible to see him. The man outside then sent In the message that be was an author and had a play that he wished McKee to read immediately. This incensed the manager, who said to the usher: "Tell that fool out there that this is no time to bring a play to be read.

Get bim out of the place I won't see bini. I won't read bis play." A few minutes later the usher came back and informed McKee that tbe

man utterly refused to go without seeing him, and that he must be granted

an interview, also that he was quite

sure that the manager would not only read his play, but be would also pro

duce it, and added that he would bet

$1,000 that Hoyt & McKee would be only too glad to get tbe play. At that McKee became furiously angry, and, excusing himself to bis party, left the box witb tbe Intention of personally inviting tbe ' persistent author to begone. "Where's that idiot who Insists on seeing me?" he asked of the treasurer at the box ofHce. Then the treasurer pointed to a man standing in tbe shadow witb a roll of manuscript under bis arm. It was Hoyt, with his newly finished play, which he banded to MeKee, whe said to those present: j "It's on me what'll you have, boys?" New York Clipper.

Odors That Permeate Fsodstnffs. A fish dealer in one of the most stylish parts of New York was deeply hurt and badly worried one day by the complaint of one of bis big customers that a fine salmon which he bad sent to tbe house for a big dinner bad proved to be entirely uneatable when served owing to a most penetrating taste of creosote that pervaded It. Tbe fish dealer realized, although the charge was not made directly, that he wg more than suspected of having sold a stale fish that bad been washed or brushed with an antiseptic preparation to hide its condition- He knew that tbe salmon had been perfectly fresh when he sold it. and for days be puzzled In vain over the problem. But suddenly he remembered that on tbe day the' fish was sent out a tank wagon full of creosote bad stopped before bis place and that bia cart, into which tbe fish was being placed, was directly alongside of the powerful stuff. That appears to have been enough to permeate the delicate flesh of the fish. New York Press.

Wooes Morpheus Witb Picture. I have found a cure," said a physician, "for a person who Isn't chronically afflicted, witb Insomnia, but who temporarily cannot sleep, it Is a curious thing that the picture of a person yawning will almost Invariably induce sleep. "Try It yourself some time if yoo come across such a photograph. For the life of you yon can't help yawning, after a moment, and persistent gazing at tbe sleepy bead will almost Inevitably send yon to tbe conch for a nap-" New York Times. ..--

Sometimes the heart nerres seem to twist. Twinging rheumatic pains of the extremities. Sharp and Intense at times. In the intervals dull and heavy. Neuralgia is the result of impoverished blood, caused by impairment of the nerves a lack of nerve force. It is a disease of the nerve centers, and . the pains accompanying it are a prayer for better nourishment. They are the danger signals which warn yon against a total collapse of the nervous system. liniments and all external applications can only give temporary relief. Permanent care cannot possibly come until the nerve centers are thoroughly revitalized by Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills. The beneficial effects of this great nerve restorative are felt thrilling through the nerve fibres as week by week and month by month the nerve force of the body is restored.

SI JUNGS IN THE SEA

FRESH WATER STREAMS THAT BURST FROM THE OCEAN'S BED.

ONE MAN'S LUCK.

Steered Into at Junior Partnership by a Cbanee tiunt of Wind. "Speaking of taking in partners," said a downtown business man, "oui Junior was, you might say. blown lu on us, and I saw bim started in our direction, though I bad no idea of it at tbe time. "Going down town one summer morning on a Ninth avenue elevated train I saw sitting opposite to me a young man who caught my fancy, a substantial, earnest, straightforward looking chap, whose looks I liked first rate. He was reading a paper, and presently In tore off from bis paper an advertise nient leaf that be didn't want and threw it out of a window or tried to, for as a matter of fact it didn't go out. A gust of wind with just tbe right twist to it came along at just that moment and blew tbe paper back, to fall on a vacant seat next to bim. "And as it fell something in it caught his eye, and he picked up that pari which be bad just been trying to throw away and began earnestly to read it and ended up by folding it carefully and putting it in bis pocket. "About four minutes after I'd got in here that morning this same young man walks in and applies for a place that we had been waiting for somebody to fill. Our advertisement for a man for it was in that paper which 1 had seen this young man try to throw away, and which a guest of wind, by

one chance in a million or more, bad

blown back upon him and in such a

manner as to fix bis attention.

"As a matter of fact I hadn't liked

the young man's act of throwing tbt paper out of an elevated car window. A paper floating down and around as

that would do might frighten horse

and lead o no end of trouble and lots of damage, but no one roan thinks

about everything, and he'd learn bettei about this, I knew, and so as a niattei

of fact I took this young man on tbt

spot on my first impressions of him

He far more than made good and Irt

due course of time he came into bis

junior partnership, literally and truly

blown into it.

A CORDIAL RECEPTION.

Tbe Book Agent Got One Tbat

Wasn't Intended For Htm.

There is a farmer living just north of Evanston and a book agent some

where in tbe cosmopolitan desert of

Chicago each of whom feels that he Is

a victim of a cruel circumstance.

Last week the farmer bad a note from a nephew to say that tbe boy

would visit the farm on Thursday.

Uncle and nephew had not met for fifteen years," and tbe old man drove tc

tbe station in bis most uncomfortable coat tbat be might welcome bis sister's child. But the young man failed tc

arrive. After waiting till the last passenger had disappeared the old man

drove away, disappointed. The book agent entered Into tbe dramatis per sonne early the nest morning. Looking over the top rail of the barnyard gate, be called. "Hello, uncle!" The book agent never got such a reception liefore in all his life. Tbe farmer flung the gate wide open, seized the agent's band and pressed a whiskered kiss on the ironclad cheek. "Say, this must be heaven, murmured tbe agent, following the farmer Into the bouse and explaining tbat everybody at home was as well as could be expected. Not till the agent was full of a boiled dinner and attempted to sell a book did the farmer begin tc see a dim light. Charged with impersonating the missing nephew, the agent explained that he greeted aU elderly strangers as "uncle;" tbat be even bad a few almost real ones in South Clark street in Chicago. "vTben last seen by tbe farmer, the agent was still running, and when the real nephew does come be may find an electric current In tbe latcbstring. Chicago Tribune.

Tbe Oriein of the I aderjirouad Rivers That Hate an Oot'c: I nder tbe Prkia Golf Has eer Been Satisfactorily Explained. Along the shallow bottom of tbe ocean, not very far from tbe land, a number of openings have leen discovered in various parts cf the world through which water as pure and fresh as tbat cf any bubbliug spring mingles with tbe stilt water of tbe sea. Another remarkable class of fresh water springs is those tbat sink out of sight or perhaps never eouie to the surface, but follow bidden channels under tbe land and under tbe sea until they finally come to the oien air on au island.

Both of these types of underground rivers are perhaps most remarkably illustrated near and on Bahrein island, in the IVrsiau gulf, a place that is also noted as one of the chief sources of pearls. Bahrein island, the largest of tbe group of islands bearing that name, is aliout twenty miles off tbe coast ot Arabia in the Persian gulf. As the Island has almost no rainfall It is a dead level of sandy desert relieved only by palm groves and patches of vegetation where water springs to the surface from tbe mysterious underground channels. In many places the watei does not reach tbe surface, but is found by sinking wells, tbe water being raised to tbe surface by donkeys and bullocks and poured into tbe channels from which the date palms and otbet crops are Irrigated. These springs can

not possibly be derived from the island.

and it is no more likely tbat they come from tbe sandy wastes of neighboring Arabia. The Arabian shore as far as

can be seen is low and devoid of water

except at El-Katif where similar springs are found. Arabs say tbat these streams come straight from the Euphrates river through an underground channel by which the great river. In part, flows beneath the Persian gulf. Geologists, however, have dismissed this theory. Though the origin of the springs has not yet been satisfactorily explained, tbe most favored theory Is that they come from tbe well watered slopes of tbe Persian mountains far to tbe north. If this theory is correct. It means that tbe rainfall sinks Into the eartb's crust until It reaches Impermeable rock strata along which it is carried for a great distance to tbe south out under the sea until the rock, sloping upward, again brings the water near tbe surface on Bahrein island. Some of tbe wells that are thus supplied are enormous, and one of them, the Adari, serves for tbe irrigation of many miles of date palms through a canal of ancient construction. The Adari well Is one of the great sights of Bahrein, being a deep basin of water 22 by 4C yards in size. Tbe fact tbat it comes from a far higher source is shown bj tbe force witb which it enters the well Divers, driven back by the strong current, are unable to reach the bottom. Tbere being no wells within miles of some of the coast towns of Bahrein, they obtain water from springs tbat itsue from tbe bottom of the gulf not far from the shore. These springs ol course have the same origin as the wells. Divers, with goatskins under their arms, dive through the salt water and fill the skins with tbe cold, fresh liquid at the bottom. Tbe water obtained in this way usually contains a slight admixture of salt water, sc that tbe mixture is just a little brackish. At some of these openings at tbe sea bottom tbe bead of water entering tbe sea is so strong tbat when hollow bamboos are pusbed down Into it tbe water rises through the tubes, delivering the fresh water directly Into vessels that are held by men and women who are sitting in tbe boats that brought them from the land. The force of some of the streams as they come from tbe earth is bo considerable that it pushes back the salt water, and the spring is not mixed with the sea water for quite a space around tbe place of entrance. It has been practically determined within the past few years that tbe waters of a small river In West Africa which disappeared in a fresh watei swamp that has no visible outlet find their way by an underground channel into the Atlantic and mingle with the sea through an opening in the bottom tbat has been discovered a few miles from Cape Verde. A channel has been

found on the sea floor which, apparently, was cut by some fresb water Etream. During some soundings tbat were made In 1S95 for the purpose of finding and raising a broken cable the vessel engaged in the work was surrounded by swamp vegetation tbat was continually rising to tbe surface. It was evidently brought through tbe underground channel from tbe swamp. Tbe breaking of a cable off the month of the Koroma river In East Africa has been attributed to tbe destructive action of a strong current of sweet water entering tbe sea level several miles from the land. Another remarkable example of a submarine river i found to the north of tbe city of Arica on the Pacific coast of South America. A river from tbe Andes tbat Is gradually swallowed up In the sand has been found to make its way Invisibly into tbe sea, witb which It unites some miles from tbe land. New York Son.
