Once the wreck master on bis arrival noticed a bareheaded man in overalls, covered with coal dust and blood, sitting beside his engine with tears running down his face. He recognized him as the engineer, who had been hauled out a few minutes before from under the mass of twisted, battered steel that had once been a locomotive. Singularly enough, beyond a few cuts and bruises he was unhurt. He was crying because he could not find his cap that he had bought new that day and begged the wreck master to help him hunt for it. A passenger conductor of a train that was derailed and had plunged down an embankment crawled out of the confusion and rendered cool and efficient help during the half hour before the wreck train arrived. A little later the wreck master chanced to look nround and saw the conductor standing beside him holding a matchbox to his ear and shaking it. Presently he put it back in his pocket, but took it out again in a - moment and repeated his action. "What's the matter with you?" asked the wreck master. "My -watch has stopped. I can't get it to going, and I don't know what time It is," answered the conductor, still listening to his matchbox. The wreck master took the conductor by the shoulders and shook him roughly. Then he "came to." Thaddeus S. Dayton in Harper's Weekly. His Size. In order to celebrate an important event that had taken place in the home, whereby he was raised to the dignity of a father, a Scotch laborer went to buy a hat, a luxury that he had hitherto denied himself. This is a verbatim report of what happened: Carter I want a hat Shopman What size, please? Carter I dinna ken; never wore yln afore. Shopman Take off your cap. please. (Looks at his cranium) Oh, I think six and seven-eighths will fit Carter Six and seven-eighths be blowed!

About fifty miles from Tokyo it is found constructing shelters for aphides made by cementing grains of sand to twigs of ilex. These shelters not only serve to keep the aphides warm and thus increase their yield of honeydew, of which the ants are so fond, but they also form folds from which the aphides cannot escape and where they are protected from the raids of other ants. The ants also construct covered galleries of sand, which connect the tents of the aphides witb their own nests. the management has decided to give another party on Thursday evening. There will be no skating this evening on account of a concert which is to be held in the Coliseum tonight The TwilUrfct Of Life. The muscles of the stomach in old ac are no. as strong or active as in youth and in consequence old people are very subject to constipation and indigestion. Many seldom have a bowel movement without artificial aid. Many, also, have unpleasant eructations of gas from the stomach after eatinsr. All this can be avoided by the use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which permanently regulates the bowels so thai passages come naturally, and so strengthen the stomach that food is digested without discomfort.

POPUURJALLACIES, Some Old Fashioned Notions That Still Obtain Credence.

THE CYCLE OF THREE IDEA. A Drowning Man May Sink Not Only Thrice, but a Dozen Times, end Still B Rescued Congestive Chills and the Merging of Diseases Law Points. Three physician were standing la a dowutonu drug store the other day when one. wlw had been looking at an evening iaper. exclaimed: "Orest Caesar, here it Is again! 1 see it la the papers at least twice a mouth." "What's thst?' asked one of the others. j "It's that popular fallacy about a f M . . w I sinking for the third time he was saved t bv the timely arrival,' etc. The next time I see this third time business It probably will read, "lie sank for the third time before aid could be bad and vrs drowned." "Why will people get that fool idea that sinking fur the third time must needs be fatal t a drowning man? Why, bless you. 1 saw a tnau sink a half dozen times before be was res cued alive. Au uncle of mine, witnesses said, uever sank but once, and he was drowned. The nuimVr of times a man sinks has nothing to do with Lis drow ning, lie may sink but once, nud he may go beneath the water any number of times. It all deiends upon the person who is drowning, bis physical condition aud how quickly the lungs fill with water.' "That cycle of three." suggested another of the doctor, "is carried along by those who insist that a ierson dies in his third suggestive chill. Hut this is not true. The fame rule bold good in congestive chills as in the case of the drowning man. A per sou may die iu the first or he may bare a dozen and still live. The rule of three does not obtain there either. Tho first physician, with great disdain, then told bow many ignorant persons would swear that "if ye git th malary au it runs into typhoid fever an it runs into uewmony lt' shore death." "There's that same old rule of three again." he continued almost angrily. "First and foremost, one disease doc not run into another. There's no such thing as a collision between diseases, as many believe. If one has malaria he Las that and that alone. The same thing Is true of typhoid fever and pneumonia. Each one is a separate and distinct trouble, and a doctor with any sense should be able to diagnose his malady from symptoms which are always present in each and entirely different." From popular fallacies in regard to medicine the conversation drifted to fallacies regarding the law. A lawyer present was called upon to explain first one thing and another, when one of the bystanders said: "I made a let the other day that a person had no right to touch a dead body until the coroner arrived, and I won." "Who decided the question for you?" asked the lawyer smilingly. -Well." said the man sheepishly, "It was a bartender, but he's an educated fellow and is a good judge of the law." You speak of the law as If it were something to be judged like cattle at a fat stock show," replied the attorney. "There is no law on any statute book in any state In the United States which says one may not touch a body before the arrival of the coroner. "In case of murder the old English common law used to require that the body of the murdered one be left Just as it lay until viewed by one In authority. "That was done, it can plainly be seen, for the purpose of preserving the surroundings Intact so that -whatever evidence might be there would not be disturbed. In case ef a murder today, especially If any mystery were connected with It, common sense would teach a person to leave everything Intact, not alone for the coroner, but for the police officials as well. But should the body of a murdered man be moved there is no law covering it unless it could be proved that the person who moved the body did it with the intention to destroy evidence. In cases of suicide or death by accident there could be n objection to moving the body anywhere in the city If done with humane or some other proper motive." I'll tell von what is the law." said a stoop shouldered, long armed man who bad been listening loag enough to get the git f the di-v-ussVon. -If a fellow sees a murder through a pane of glass te can't be a witness In the case." Oh, plffler exclaimed the attorney. Tm going to lunch. That the limit. I was waiting- for some yap to prlnir that. If that was the case and a murder should be committed la this room half a dozen of ns could not be competent witnesses, if your statement Is true, because we are wearing glassesClass is glass whether in a window or on the nose. There is no such law as that. That's foolish." I beard my grandfather say that," insisted the long armed man, "and be know'd law too. . "Yes." retorted the exasperated attorney, "and he no doubt rve it out as law that a man could stand with hl back against bis own house and kill any one who came within a certain distance of him. But he would hang for it unless he had mighty good deUzas. All cf those things are what we call "chimney corner law,' bat they won't hold In court." Kansas City Journal. The Waters Under the Earth. Below a depth of six miles under the surface of the earth's crust it la believed that no water can exist in th rock formations, because the tremendous pressure probably closes all pores. But above that level the quantity of underground water Is estimated to be equal to one-third of all the water contained in the oceans. If poured over the land surface of the globe the underground water would, ft Is averred, be sufficient to cover It to a uniform Depth of from 3,000 to ZfiOQ feet.
