But it would be interesting to find one man ontside of the dozen sleeping cowards who is a hero in a dream. London Chronicle. As to the original inventor of the planing machine, there is, perhaps, scarcely a machine about which there has been more controversy than this, and there are many clamants to the honor. There are records, however, showing that Nicholas Ford, a French clockmaker, used a metal planer in 1751 for machining pump cylinders, apparently being under the impression that they could be made more accurately in this manner than by a revolving cuter.

AUDACITY OF THE IMPOSTOR.

Ha Deceived Not Only the Sisters, but Even the Wife, of the Man Whoee Place He Usurped The Return ef the Real Guerre and the Exposure. Perhaps the most remarkable case of doubles in all history is that of Martin Guerre, a Frenchman, who was born near Bayonne in the tirst half of the sixteenth century. Martin Guerre was the son of a well to do farmer and brickmaker, and, as was the custom of the country at the time, he married at the age of eleven Bertrande do Rols, who had then reached the age of ten. For eight years they lived together. Unfortunately Martin stole a bushel of corn from his father. Frightened by the haanousness of his crime, he deserted his wife and fled to Spain. 1 There he entered the service of Emperor Charles V. and after several years of campaigning seems to have forgotten his wife. Bertrande, and his baby boy, Sancho. At any rate, he ceased to write home, and his family lost all trace of him. His absence stretched on to eight years. J Then one evening a stranger arrived ! at the inn of the village w here the deserted wife was still living. He at j once told his host that he was Martin i Guerre and recounted the adventures I and hardships that had kept him from home so long. The rumor of Martin Guerre's return soon spread, and his four sisters hastened to the hostelry to welcome him home. They found him much changed. He had gone eight years before, scarcely more than a boy. Now he was a mature man, bronzed and bearded. Nevertheless they welcomed him, embraced him and carried the news to his wife. Bertrande hastened to him at once. When she saw him first she started back with misgiving. But he addressed her tenderly, repeated word for word their parting conversation and mentioned details that only a husband could have known. He even spoke of the clothing he had left behind and where It could be found. Bertrande was convinced. She begged forgiveness for her doubts and threw herself into his arms. An uncle arrived. He, too, hesitated, but the newcomer detailed to him all the minutiae of their business transactions eight years before, and he also was convinced. The upshot of the matter was that this newly arrived Martin Guerre returned home with his wife and lived happily and without suspicion with her for four years. During this time they had two children, and Martin's father at bis death bequeathed him a farm. However, a soldier passing through the village declared that he had seen Martin at the siege of St. Quentin, that he had lost a leg there, but that he was still alive, and the soldier left a written deposition to that effect The rumor spread that the man living as Martin Guerre was an impostor. Bertrande at this filed a criminal information agalnJt the man to whom for four years she had granted the rights ofa husband. He was described in the accusation as Arnault du Tilh and was committed to prison. The prisoner said that the uncle had influenced his wife and that the whole charge was a conspiracy to deprive him of his fortune of 8,000 livres. He submitted to a searching interrogatory, after the French fashion, and answered all questions satisfactorily. He told of his campaigns and revealed the most Intimate details of the family history. He relied for his defense, too, on the four sisters who still called him brother, on his four years' life with Bertrande with her consent, and pressed her In the presence of the judges to swear that he was not her real husband, declaring that if she so swore he was ready to forfeit his head. Bertrande refused to take this oath. She was confused by his confident manner. In the trial 150 witnesses were examined Of this number forty deposed that the man was the real Martin Guwre, fifty deposed that he was Arnault du Tilh, and sixty declined to pronounce any opinion, owing to the extraordinary resemblance. In spite of the conflicting evideuce the judge pronounced him guilty. He at once appealed to the parliament of Toulouse. On this appeal thirty witnesses were re-examined. Ten deposed that he was Martin Guerre, eight that he was an Impostor, and the remainder confessed that they were too bewildered to have any opinion. The judges were sorely perplexed and leaned to the side of the prisoner. By a curious coincidence just at this juncture the real Martin Guerre made his appearance on the scene. He showed the same marks on his face as those borne by the prisoner. The men were confronted with each other in court. Even the four sisters, who till now had clung to their belief in the prisoner, confessed their mistake. The prisoner lost his nerve, confessed his crime and begged forgiveness. He was condemned to death and executed. The real Martin was restored to his rights. Conrad Oak ia New York Tribune. Originality. VThy did you accept George?"

GomMEDALFLOUrl HAS AN ODD PLANT Mr. Hill Shows One Which Has Three Blooms, Each a Different Color. AN INTERESTING MEETING "The Power and Goodness of God as Manifested in Nature" was the subject of an address made last evening by E. G. Hill, the well known florist, before the St. Paul's Brotherhood of the Lutheran church. Mr. Hill characterized what are commonly known as freak flowers as miracles maae possible only by the intervention of God. Mr. Hill has had unusual success in developing new varieties of roses, enrysanthemums and carnations. His most noted achievem nts have been the "Richmond Rose" and the "Rhea Reid" rose. Both have won first prizes in the international flower shows. Last evening, he brought with him several blooms, the most peculiar miracle of nature being a yellow, white and pink chrysanthemum on the same plant. The evening was spent socially following Mr. Hill's address. Several vo cal selections were rendered. PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, Blind. Bleeding or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 days or money refunded. 50c. There was a time when few firstclass remedies for really serious maladies did not include some portion of a snake powdered. Snake broth itself was sovereign for many ills. The snake with its tail in its mouth is the symbol of eternity, and as. by casting its skin, it "renews its youth," it has since the days of Aesculapius been the chosen emblem of the medical fraternity; while Mercury's caduceus, with its wreathed snakes, typical of peace, has been used as the badge of commerce. In this same field, however, the snake possesses an even mightier significance, for the dollar mark t? is but the serpent entwined about the Pillars of Hercules, as it may be seen minted on the Spanish peso today. During the last two years the oid production has doubled in America. The production is $l;,Hrf greater than the output of gold and silver in the United States.
