HIS SWEET REVENGE.
Fflcked Out When a troy , lie Lived to Repay -
pay the Offender.
A story with a moral is told me by a
friend from Bloomington , Ind. That
pretty little university town numbers
among its notabilities not only the col-
icgo professors , but Mother professor
also , whose accomplishment lies not in
the direction of human education. I
mean genial Henry Gentry , known
wherever there are little and big children -
dren , who like to see his performing gs
and ponies. Professor Gentry was a very
poor boy , which was no dishonor , but
still much against him in the race of
life. During the last few years he has
made a fortune. I am afraid to say how
much , but it must be up in the hundred
thousands. Ten years ago he was still
struggling to make a living for himself
and his parents , and very often it was
hard enough. And thereby hangs my
talc.
talc.Every
Every ons knows how difficult it was
or business men to keep heads above
water during the hard times and what
a serious matter itwas to obtain money ,
but Gentry 118(1 plenty of it all through
antl is said to have helped more than
one man over the stepping stones.
One day a very prominent business
man of his own was caught short and
needed ; ; 5,000 to see him through. Ho
had property and values , but no money.
He went to the bank and asked for a
loan , but cvas suavely told that the bank
had it not. Just as the conversation
was going on Henry Gentry happened
to pass the bank , and the banker rein ark-
ed , "There's only ono man in town who
has that much cash , and maybe he'll
lend it to you. " Ho pointed to Gentry.
The business man took the hint , step.
pod out of the bank , caught up with
Gentry , and after a very complimentary
talk on his success broached his request.
Gentry turned full upon him and replied -
plied : "Oh , yes , I have $5,000 ; more
'too , but do you remember a barefoot lad
who came intu your store at one time
trying to buy a pair of shoes ort trust ?
Do you remember how you kicked him
almost out of your store ? Well , I was
that boy. No , you can't have no money
from pie ! " Maybe it was not very
Christian , but it must have been awfully -
ly sweet rovenge.-Louisville Courier-
Journal.
New Use For Parrot.
The talents of parrots have , we read ,
just been turned in a new direction by
the authorities of aFrench town. It has
hitherto been the habit to more or less
fritter away the intellectual force of parrots -
rots by merely teaching them to say
naughty or witty things or to use such
expressions as "Pretty Pall" or "Poor
fellow. " The municipal authorities of
the town referred to have , perhaps the
future will prove , opened up a wider
field of action for the parrot. The poor
box at the town hall , it seems , had for
a long time past been in a condition of
chronic emptiness , which did not reflect
much credit on the charitable feelings
of the inhabitants. To remind them of
their duty toward their poorer neighbors -
bors a parrot was purchased , which has
been installed close to the box and
trained to cry , "For the poor , if you
please. " It appears that the result of
the innovation has been highly satisfactory -
tory , pence and silver coins having been
freely given in response to the bird's
appeal. The idea , as is remarked , is
capable of being applied in a variety of
ways. To denote to the passerby that ho
is in the proximity of wet paint on any j
shop front , parrots might be used , or to
remind people of entering a house to
wipe their feet on the door mat before
going up stairs the bird's services could
be employed , instead of the time honored -
ored placard , "Essuyez vos pietls , s. v.
p. , " to be met with in French houses.
In fact , there may be a new opening for
parrots.-London Standard.
He Was Fed.
That old motto , "Where there is a
will there is a way , " though now a little -
tle out of fashion , perhaps , and somewhat -
what exaggerated , as is the case with
mothers in general , is still expressive of
a truth.
Writing of old times at White Sulphur -
phur springs , General Maury says there
were many complaints of the fare at the
hotel. The dignified proprietor used to
console his guests by remarking that
they really paid nothing for their dinners -
ners , but only for the wonderful sulphur
water which he had discovered.
One day in the height of the season ,
when the crowd was great and the service -
ice scanty , the people in the dining
room were startled by heartrending
cries of "Murder , murder ! " Steward
and servants rushed to the victim , who ,
in answer to their eager inquiries , informed -
formed them that he could get nothing
to eat ana was dying of starvation.
That young man was served well and
promptly as long as he remained.-

THE ORIGIN OF OMENS.
tarvival of Some Celestial Superstitions In
Modern Times.
Something of the influence of ancient
astrology is shown in the popular belief
that the rising and setting of Sirius , the
dog star , infuses madness into the
canine race. In our medical prescriptions -
tions , too , the old superstition appears.
The ornamental part of the apothecary's
R is none ether than the sign of Jupiter -
ter , under whose special care medicines
were supposed to have been placed , and
our nostrums are still compounded under -
der the sylibol of Jove's protection. The
letter itself-recipe , take-and its flourish -
ish mean substantially this : "Under the
good auspices of Jove , the patron of
medicine , take the following goods in
the proportions set down. " Some try to
throw the responsibility for the symbol
R back to Raphael , but the sum of ovi-
deuce points to Jupiter as its patron.
In America Friday is traditionally in
good repute. Columbus sailed on Friday -
day and first discovered land on Friday ,
the Pilgrims lauded on Friday , and on
Friday Washington was born. Yet even
in America , notwithstanding all these
"best accidents , " a flavor of misfortune
attends the day , and the statistics of
travel and mercantile transactions for
Friday show how widespread is the prejudice -
udice against it.
Other days less generally maligned
are Cain's birthday , the firstMonday in
April ; the 3d of May , called the "dis-
mal day" in the highlands of Scotland ,
and Dec. 31 , when Judas hanged him-
self. Apropos of Judas , the superstition
of unlucky 13 probably has its origin
with that unworthy disciple. The ill ,
onion dates from the last supper , when
13 sat at table. One denied his Master
and went out and hanged himself , anti
since that time "twelve grouped together -
gether fear another one. " A deep seated
prejudice obtains against any given 13
dipping together in the dish , lest one
fall a victim to misfortune before the
cud of the year. The existence of the
defiant "Thirteen club" in Now York ,
which makes that luckless number the
pivot on which all its doings turn ,
should do something to dispel this time
stained superstition.-Chantauquan.
A CHILD'S DAY'S JOURNEY.
Little Feet 1Vliich All Day Lon „ Mark the
Passing Illonients.
How many miles a day the little feet
of young children will travel is often a
source of wonderment to parents who
lovingly watch them. This restless activity -
tivity was never better illustrated than
by a very 01(1 story , which may interest
readers of this column.
A grandfather who had little to do
except to watch the curious antics of his
grandchildren as they played around the
house resolveil that for one day ho
would follow one little fellow who
seemed especially restless , prying into
everything from morning till night.
It proved much more of a job than he
had expected. Noon came , and if the
child was not wearied the man was , but
he had set out to go wherever the child
led , and lie persevered. Toward night
there came a sudden end to the experiment -
ment , when the child crept through between -
tween the rounds of a chair where the
space was entirely too narrow for a
grown man to follow. lie had to acknowledge -
knowledge himself beaten at last.
Whether the baby turned back and
winked one eye at its grandfather the
story does not tell. No doubt , however ,
the baby's mother thought he did.-

The Dog In British Poetry.
In the mediaeval metrical romances
are found the first noteworthy references
in our language to the dog. Thomas the (
Rhymer of Ercildoune wrote "Sir Tris-
tram" some time in the thirteenth can-
tury. The story is familiar , of course ,
but the pathos of it is here augmented
by the knight's dog also being brought
under the spell of the fatal love potion :
An houndo ther was biside
That waa y clept Hodain.
' The coupe lie licked that tide ,
Though doun it sett Brengwain.
Tristram and the beautiful Isolde of
Ireland ,

And Hodain dede al so.

and fought for Trianour ,

Kentucky's Champion Horse Trader.
Talk about your horse traders , but
Washington county has a few that can't
be beat. Last Monday one of them came
to town , and when he left home he barely -
ly had money enough to pay his toll one
way. After arriving here it was not
long until ho struck some one for a
horse trade. He continued swapping
horses all day. How many different
trades ho made would be hard to tell ,
but late in the afternoon , when he made
an estimate of the clay's business , he
discovered that he had the same horse
that ho started with , a 2-year-old filly , '
standard and registered , a cow and a
calf , a goad team of work mules.a sow
and 11 pigs , together with two yearling
steers and $11.65 in money. Can any
one beat it-Springfield ( Ky. ) News-

His Retort.
The famous Jahn Randolph of Roanoke -
eke , as he was called in his day , once
met , while walking on a narrow pavement -
ment , a political opponent of his.
The man pushed rudely against Mr.
Randolph with his elbow , saying as he
did so , "I never make way for sconn-
t r
drels.t
"I do , " said John Randolph , stepping
to one side and making his most courtly
bow , as he allowed the man to pass.- l

ONLY A SCRATCH NEEDED. .
The Frequency of Illood Poisoning Among
the Meat Packers.
"Itwould surprise you to know , " re
cently remarked an officer of one of our
large packing houses , "how frequent
eases cf blood poisoning are sng our
employees , and the cause in most of
these instances would doubtless surprise
you more. A scratch on the hand from
q
a bone of a calf's head or a pig's foot
often disables a man for a week , and ,
strangely enough , in almost every case
that has come under my notice the
scratch has been so slight as to be almost -
most imperceptible.
"The first intimation the man h is of
his injury is a swelling of the forearm ,
accompanied by smarting pain. BothI
swelling and pain generally extend io
the shoulder , under which a large lung
sometimes forms. Even after the presence -
ence of the scratch has been in this
manner demonstrated it is often impossible -
siblo to detect it. It is usually caused ,
in the case of the calf's head , by the
sharp edge on the bole of the neck , duo
to the carelessness of the butcher who
severs the head from the carcass. If he
does leis work well and his cleaver has
severed the joint perfectly , all is well ,
for there is no sharp edge to cut , but if

" ( ii course none of these cases has
ever resulted seriously , as prompt measures -
ures are always taken and as we always
insist that a man so injured ininiediate-
ly consult a physician. This rule we
never vary , for wo feel bound to retain
a man ( in the pay roll while suffering
from such an accident , even though he
he unfitted for work , and the unskillful
treatment of an apothecary , on which
many of them would like to rely , or the
even less satisfactory methods of home
surgery would only prolong the term of

COINS OF LITTLE PRACTICAL USE.
Tire Gold Dollar Had No Utility , While the
Three Cent Piece Served a Purpose.
To one who has not given the subject
thought it would seem that the most
useless coins over issued by the United
States were the silver 3 cent pieces.
They were small , as thin as a sheet of
manilla paper , and before they finally
disappeared from circulation they came
to be regarded as nuisances.
Although there is much to be said
against the annoying little coins , they
were , as a matter of fact , of far greater
utility , as far as circulation is concerned -
ed , than another coin. This is the gold
dollar , which , experts at the subtreas-
uy say , has never served any useful
purpose. Said Maurice Muhleman , cashier -
ier of the subi easury , recently :
"From tlio mntilatcd condition of the
gold dollars sent here for redemption it
is positively shown that the public do
not regard them as coins. Their only
use appears to be for bangles , necklaces ,
watch charms , scarfpins and the like.
It is doubtful if one in a thousand ever
really passed in circulation.
"With the 3 cent silver piece it was
different. When first coined , the conn-
try had nothing in the shape of a corn
between the huge copper cents and half
cents and the silver half dime. The
small coin was hailed as a blessing and
became popular at once. There was an
excellent reason for its issue also.
"Strange as it may seem , it was not
provided for by a coinage act , but by an
act revising the postal rates. This law
lowered the cast for transmitting the
unit of weight for letters from 5 to 3
cents. It was deemed advisable by congress -
gress thereupon to issue a coin of corre
spondfng denomination. The coin was
of great utility and circulated freely until -
til the advent of the nickeL " -New

Injuries to the Eyes.
An oculist of long experience in this
city , who was recently asked to state
the most common causes of accidental
injuries to the eye , replied : "Among
children , throwing stones and playing
'shinny'-a most dangerous game. Another -
other not infrequent cause of accident is
allowing children to stand about the
kitchen range when the cook is frying
fat that sputters and flies about the
room. Among adults , the umbrella ( its
point when carried open in a crowd
and tip when carried closed over the
shoulder ) is a quite common cause of
injury and flying cinders another. But
most of the cases we treat are not duo to
accident , but rather to the prolonged
misuse of the eyes by close application
either in dim or glaring light , and often -
ten injuries arise from strictly constitutional -
tional disorders.Philadelphia Roe-

Irish Superstitions.
Mr. le Faun , writing on Irish superstitions -
stitions , says : "The so called battles of
the Dcrins ( buryings ) originated in the
superstition that the last person buried
has , in addition to his other troubles , to
allay the thirst of all previously laid in
the churchyard. Where the water carried -
ried is procured I have never heard , but
as much is wanted , the atmosphere being -
ing very hot , the labor involved is incessant -
cessant and the carrier not relieved till
the nest funeral takes place. Peasants
have been known to put shoes or boots
into coffins to save the feet of their rela-
tivcs on these weary water carrying
walks. Our neighbor , John Ryan , provided -
vided two pairs of shoes in his wife's
coffin-a light pair for ordinary wear
and a strong pair for bad weather. "
