The Troy (N. Y.) Times prints a letter written at Cairo, Egypt, by Rev. Dr. L. M. 8. fiaynes, pastor of the First Baptist church of that city, to JEL D. 8veet, a parishioner, in which he says: "Oar conductor called us to an early breakfast at 6:30. Our party of five "were promptly on hand. Our carriage was an ordinary American hack. We soon reached the bridge over the Nile and entered the avenue of acacia trees skirting the elevated pike which the government has built clear to the pyramids, a distance of about eight miles. The road was literally crowded with farmers''fellahee,'coming into market We passed hundreds of camels and donkeys loaded down with every conceivable thing, especially fresh white clover, great quantities of which are sold in the city. Each camel carries about 400 pounds. With all the animals there were men, women and children, most of thecu walking, but they will ride back. The men and boys seemed to be having a good time but, as usual, the women and girls looked sad and miserabla The donkeys were looking down to the ground, but the camels looked up in the air, as they always do. They are very high minded. Their backs are also high, as I can testify, for I had my first camel ride today. In about an hour we rode up to the very base of the great pile of stone and alighted from our carriage in the sand, with the sun three hours high and blazing hot. It was about 9 o'clock. We were immediately surrounded by the usual crowd of clamorous Arabs, anxious to help us up the great climb. But our conductor, Mr. Solomon, and our superb dragoman, Abraham, who had been with us up the Nile, cleared them all away, and we selected three men each, fine looking men in white. "Wo went right away over a pile of «and along the base and stood upon the first tier of stone. Then I formally looked up for the first time. We had seen the three pyramids, so familiar in picture, for more than an hour, but they did not seem to be so very large, because thero is nothing to compare them with. But it is three-fourths of a mile around Cheops, and 480 feet to the top. The stones are about six feet square, and project one beyond the other, just like going up many stairs. The place for your feet is about four feet, a very good standing if you reached the floor or were not going up 480 feet right up in the air nearly three times as high as our church steeple. "We walked easily along one course of stone on the west side, which were worn smooth with passing fdet, and came to the northwest corner, where the ascent is made. Two men took me by the hand, and one pushed behind, and I began going up stairs four feet at a step. After about 200 steps I concluded to stop. We must have been about 80 feet up at that corner. I was not dizzy nor very lamo, but I felt very peculiar, and I folt more peculiar every minute afterward until I got back on to solid and oapaoious footing. But up we went, hop, skip and jump, going all the time and going tip on the ragged oorner of nothing. The stones were smooth, irregular and sometimes broken, but none less than four feet. Heaven was above you and both sides of you, and everlasting smashation beneath you if you should fall. Just then one of the Arabs tumbled a little and gave me a shock like an electric battery. "Now we come to the half way place where hoy have thrown off a few rocks, and where you can brace yourself against tlio breast stones of Cheops and look off a little. Wo were 240 feet up in the desert air, standing or leaning on the ragged corner and trying to behave ami say it was fan. But it was not Thero was too much risk and danger. Some people have to be blindfolded to get them down, and many faint, and not long since an English soldier fell. But on wo go a little farther, and, thinking the matter all over, I called a halt and deliberately decided that was enough. The view was something grand, I suppose, and if I could have done the. climbing when I was 20 years old I might have seen the grandeur. Going down, as I was not dizzy, was easier. But any step might have been my last, and I did not enjoy it as much as I did my splendid reception, though that enifcarra^fei me somewhat "One© at the bottom we mounted camels to go to the sphinx.

A Courting Episode.

A young couple, evidently from the country, were walking down Regent street one day, apparently looking for something very much in particular. At last they stopped before a large jewel­|stand ler's window, in which were displayed a number of wedding rings. They stood by the window for a few moments, discussing some urgent question, the big, clumsy looking fellow, who measured about 6 feet, apparently hesitating "Go on, George," said the girl, who scarcely reached his elbow. "What's the use of backing out, now you've get to far?" "I don't half like to, Mary," he re­|truth, plied. "That slick looking fellow in there is sure to grin at me." "What difference does it make whether he laughs or cries?" exclaimed thegirL "If you haven't the pluck, I'll go myself." "That's it, Mary," was the response. "If you'll do the asking, I'll came with you and look on."

Followed by her bashful lover, the little woman marched boldly in and chose the wedding ring, while her swain twirled his hat, blushed and looked on. As they left, the shopman gazed after them with a thoughtful air and remarked "I admirft Mary's pluck, but I shouldn't care to be George ten years from now."—Pearson's Weekly. &

Change* In Pronunciation. It requires no very profound knowledge of English literature to ascertain that the pronunciation of the language has undergone a vast change during the last three centuries. The shrewd conjecture has, indeed, more than once been hazarded that the works of the Elizabethan dramatist would be unintelligible to a modern audience if the native and original pronunciation were adhered to, and certain, at all events, it is that in many well known passages of Shakespeare the very rhythm of the line imperatively demands a strange and unaccustomed accentuation of certain words. With the peculiarities of a later period most people are sufficiently acquainted. That gold wasgooldand that china was chaney during the Augustan era is matter of common knowledge. And who can forget Pope's description of Atticus: Dreading even fools, by flatterers besieged. And

A Hombuntni Story.

The story of the plot to capture William Penn first appeared in the United States more than 25 years ago. It has been oontradioted over and over again, but it still reappears periodically in the newspapers. It is nothing less than a miserable forgery, intended to deceive the public either for the purpose of putting its credulity to a test or of creating a prejudice against the early founders of New England. The name of Mr. Judkins is entirely unknown at this library. No such chest of old papers as is alleged to have been deposited in the archives of the society has ever been received and no such person as the one said to have made the deposit is known to the members. At the date of the document Cotton Mather was only 19 years old, which fact alone would be presumptive evidence that he was not oonneoted with any such piratical schema Furthermore, I doubt whether the word "scampe" was in use at that period.—Notes and Queries.

The Trail of Slang.

It is astonishing how the children pick up slang. No matter how select the neighborhood or how careful the parents the bywords of the street are sure to drop when least expected from infantile lips.

A day or two ago a 4-year-old daughter of east end parents was being escorted along East Prospect street by her doting papa, when they mot a little boy of the same ago escorted by his papa Both papas are well acquainted, and they stopped to chat for a moment or two. "Who Is this little boy, Mabel?" asked the first papa "It's Edward," promptly answered Miss Mabel. "And who is this with Edward?" continued the first papa as he pointed to the second. "That's Edward's old man," said Miss Mabel.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Making a Critlo.

It was at an art show, and the tall, aesthetic looking girl was walking about in a bored manner, while the short one in serge rhapsodized over everything. Finally the latter remarked apologetically: H. "I know my ravings seem crude and midiscriminat ijjg to you. Cousin Nell says you're such a connoisseur. How did yon ever get to be?"

The tall girl yawned. "It's very simple," she 'said. "One merely has to dress for the part and call everything which one understands at all "hopelessly mediocre.' "—New York Journal.

THE WOMAN IN COURT.

A Daagnoni Witness and a Two Kdged Sword on Cross Examination. There is an agreement among lawyers not to put a woman on the witness if it can be avoided. "I always subpoena women," says a I lawyer of experience. "It keeps them harmless, but I never use them unless my case is desperate.'' A lawyer pressI ed for reasons preserves an impersonal attitude by retiring behind the law. It is a sad but long established fact, it seems, that the law when it forbidis a wife testifying in her husband's favor intimates her inability to speak the for, doubtless, some personal reason she may fib against him on oath if she wilL With the best intentions in the world, a woman will state conclusions instead of facts. Her mental tendency is to form some preconceived theory, and the facts are unconsciously twisted to support it

In consequence of these mental idiosyncrasies women witnesses are carefully "prepared." After a lawyer has eliminated the "I saids" and "hesaids" from her narrative and has ruthlessly brought her personal importance to the matters she has testified to to the least appreciable quantity and has endeavored to throw into relief the facts of importance to his side, he folds his hands, closes his eyes and tries to realize then and there all his stock of faith. "Let me give you my dying advice," said Rufus Choate. "Never cross examine a woman. They cannot disintegrate the story they have once told. Th^y cannot eliminate the fact that is for you from that which is against you. They go for the whole thing, and the moment you begin to cross examine one of them, instead of being bitten by one rattlesnake, you are bitten by a whole barrelful. I never, except in a case absolutely desperate, cross examine a woman."

Judge Barrett has given these rules for cross examination: "First—Never ask a question of which the answer might harm you. "Second.—Never cross examine any witness over ten minutes. 'Third. —Never cross examine a womazL'j

SifSi -1%

There Is a whiplash to a woman's speech that will crack through the curtest cross examination. "Did the defendant give you this umbrella?" "V'C "Yes, but I paid for it"

Speeches of this sort, that any nimble witted woman can toss from the tip of her tongue, make lawyers modest and judges shy. These are advantages before the law not lightly to be relinquished.—San Francisco Examiner.

He lade Her Take It Oft.

A man found himself seated behind a hat of such large proportions that he could scarcely see the stage at all. After vainly endeavoring to catch a glimpse of the performers he determined that the only thing to do was to get the woman to remove her hat "Madam," he said in the politest tones, "would you be so kind as to take off your hat? It prevents me from seeing,, the performance." "No, I will not," was the retort from the woman with the high hat The man accepted the rebuff very calmly, and he made a vain effort to see the stage for awhile longer. Finally he determined to try it again. "Madam," he said, "I have paid for this seat, but by reason of your high hat I am unable to see the stage. Will you oblige me by taking it off?'' "I have paid for my seat, and I intend to wear what I please,"was the answer received. A happy thought struck the man. He reached for his silk hat and put it on his head. Immediately there was a cry of several voices from behind him: "Takeoff that hat 1 Take off that hat!" The man took his hat off, but the woman, not knowing what he had done, of course thought that the remarks were intended for her. She was mad, thoroughly mad, and, gathering! herself together, she left her seat and! the theater, and a smile of satisfaction swept over the man's face. Revenge was sweet—Florida Citizen.

How a Fox Gets Rid of Fleas.

Reynard is a knowing animal. The foxes are much tormented by fleas, but when the infliction becomes too severe they know how to get rid of the insects. They gather from the bark of trees moss, which they carry to a stream that deepens by degrees. Here they enter the water, still carrying the moss in their mouths, and going backward, beginning from the end of their tails, they advanoe till the whole body, with the exception of the mouth, is entirely immersed. The fleas, during this proceeding, have rushed in rapid haste to the dry parts, and finally to the moss, and the fox, when he has, according to his calculation, allowed sufficient time for all the fleas to take their departure, quietly opens his month. The moss floats off down the stream with its burden of fleas, and when it is out of jumping reach the fox finds its way to the bank much relieved.—Exchange.

Hi»eli and the Aristocracy. It is told at the late Baron Hirsch that he once expressed his contempt for the aristocracy in forcible terms. It was in his Paris residence, formerly the property of the Empress Eugenia At one of his magnificent entertainments Hirsch stood at the top of the staircase, and, looking down on the procession of princes, dukes and marquises who were struggling np the stairs to greet him, he turned to his son and said, "Twenty years hence all these people will be either oar sons-in-law or car concierges."

Exhausted Soil, So Called.

It is a common way of speaking of the seals of abandoned farms, and of Others that yield only unprofitable crops, that they are worn out, exhausted and almost valueless for the purposes of cultivation. This condition of barrenness is more apparent than real and has been produced by a treatment as superficial as the view of those so ready to condemn the soil. In the early days of mining in California the impatient gold seekers, with rude apparatus and primitive methods, collected such quantities of the precious metal as came easily to hand and forsook their claims, leaving behind in the earth far more gold than they carried away. In after years others more skillful have gathered abundant wealth from those forsaken fields. Something of the same nature will yet be accomplished upon thousands of acres of New England soil now lightly valued.

An acre of soil, going down a foot deep, contains approximately 2,700 tons in its 40,000 or more cubio feet, or about 124 pounds to the cubio foot Chemical analysis demonstrates that this quantity of surface earth, in an ordinary average soil, contains about 4,000 pounds of phosphoric acid, 8,000 pounds of potash and 16,000 pounds of nitrogen. Tnese ingredients, if purchased at usual market prices, might cost 4 cents a pound for the potash, 7 cents for the phosphoric acid, 16 cents for the nitrogen. At these rates, the aggregate value of these three substances in a thin surface acre, only a single foot in depth, would be $2,600. As the gold held in quartz was beyond the reach of the unskilled miner, the fabulous wealth of the soil is largely unavailable to the unskilled farmer. But the treasure is there, to be secured by the farmer of the future. The sum of $260,000 would be thought a pretty liberal valuation of an ordinary 100 acre farm. There are many such farms in Connecticut cheaply valued by owners who little appreciate the wonderful bapabilities tif the soil they call exhausted.—Hartford Times.

"You should get your eaM loppfed, Brian," said a "smart" tourist to an Irish peasant whom he was quizzing. "They're too large for a man." "An, bedad," replied the Hibernian, "I was just thinkin yours would want to be made larger 1 Sure they're too small for an ass!"

Barney was a noted oar driver at a well known Irish watering place. He held that the "salt wather" was vastly improved by mixture with a "drop of the oraythur," but would not oommit himself to the opinion that the latter element gained anything by the combination. He sometimes drank more of it "neat" than was wise or well for the father of his weak family. One hot day, after a long drive and a liberal fare, Barney turned into the best bar in town and asked for a "sprinkle, just to keep down the dust" The proprietor, who would rather have other customers than poor Barney, came in a9 the latter was raising the glass. "Barney," he said, "I'd rather you wouldn't be drinking, spy boy. You know you were sorry for it before, and I suppose you'll be sorry for this too." "Begorra, I might," replied Barney, "but, sure, it's safer to be sorry for takin it than for not takin it!"—Westminster Gazette. tfej/ &

Waste In Making Hay.

The loss of hay in this country from a failure on the part of farmers to resort to the use of proper implements is annually very large. Hay is a crop that mnst be mowed, cured and stored under many disadvantages and often in a very short period of time. Such work cannot always be done unless every appliance neoessary for harvesting the crop is available On farms where large orops are grown the mover, tedder and rake add to the value of the hay by assisting to cure it in a manner to preserve the whole of its nutritious matter. Properly cured hay is not found on all farms.

I Valued Religious Relics* The collection of religious relics to he seen in the church of the Corsican village of Sisco is undoubtedly unique,

The inhabitants of this pretty little place are exceedingly devout and very simple, which probably accounts for the possession of such a remarkable collection. A writer in L'lndependence Beige gives the following list of the principal items:

The horn used by Moses to call together the children of Israel while in the desert a tuft of that red hair which was the prido of Esau and the despair of Jaoob apiece of the nail of the little toe of the left foot—the statement is very precise—of Enoch, the patriarch the bib worn by the infant Jesus the curb and crupper of the ass that took the holy family into Egypt, and several relics of various saints.—Pittsburg Dispatch.

A missionary at Uganda, referring to the women recently sent out to that post by the Church Missionary society, says: "Their arrival caused great joy to the natives, especially to the women, and no small amount of comment The waists of the English ladies attracted great attention. The natives instantly gave the ludies the name of 'slender middled.' The king asked various cool questions—how old they were, eta —and they told him. He then said, on noticing their ample sleeves, that they must put all their food up their sleeves, as it evidently did not go inside."
