The blinds were carefully lowered, as she lay on a couch with the smell ing salts in her hand. Whon her dearest friend came into the room she exclaimed: "Morey, does your head acho or hasn't your now gown come horaoP” “Dyspepsia, evidently, dear; you should tako—” "Oh, don’t; I want sympathy but not prescriptions. It's about lliek.” "Of courso. But I can't really sympathize until I know what it’s about.’’ “Well, it was Dick and—and my tooth. ” “Mercy, I hope you didn’t bito him! Thore, don't bo angry; I’m grave, grave as a family tomb. Don’t keop mo in suspense.” "Well then, you know I have a tooth that I cut in the dentist's “I thought so because you always said that chewing gum was vulgar.” “Yes; and of courso I’d rather havo died than let Dick know it. Hut the other evening he was here and I was eating candy when it broko right oft.” "Good gracious, what on earth—” “I managed to conceal it, but I didn’t daro to smile again lest ho notice its absence—so I just picked a quarrel with him.” “Naturally it rolioved your feelings too. But what did you quarrel about.” “Just tho same old thing.” “The fact that he doesn't work? But then ho has plenty of money without." “I know, but there's no telling when ho will call and it is ruining my hair to keep it curlod all tho time.” “Was ho very angry?” □ “Awfully—loft in half an hour. The next day I had such a cold I couldn’t go to the dentist's—besides ho always stays angry at least three days. But tho following morning I had a note saying that he had taken my advice, had secured a position, and would bo up in tho evening to tell me all about it. As soon as I answered it I started for the dentist's and—oh, Dora!” “Did you meet him on the street?” “No! No! I told tho dentist that I must have my tooth by 7 o’clock that evening. He said that ho was very busy, but would send for his new as sistant and see if he could repdUr it. I sat in the chair, with Dr. Nippers holding tho tooth, whon who should walk into the room but—” “Not Dick!” “Dick and nobody else! He was the new assistant— and, Dora, he laughed, actually laughed! O, I’ll never speak to him again until my dying day—but I don’t think that will be very long.” And she buried her head in the pillows while Dora poured vords of sympathy into deaf ears. The South African 1 Icture Stone. An account of a strange lapidarian freak comes all the way from Kimber ley, South Africa. Workmen in the diamond mines at that place discov ered a stone, dark brown in color and about the size of a pigeon’s egg, which, viewed in a dark place with a candle or other light behind it, exhibits a perfect profile picture of a man from the waist up. Turning tho pebble par tially around, the image of the man vanishes and the features of a wo man’s face, clearly-cut and partly con cealed by heavy tresses, comes into view. The British museum offers £50 'or the curiosity.—St. Louis Bepublio. An Act of Providence.

The Deepest Mine in Frunce. The deepest coal mine in France (by some authorities said to be the deep est in the world) is at Andre du Poirier. The mine is worked with two shafts, one 2,952 feet deep and tho other 3,083. The latter shaft is now being deepened, and will reach the 4,000 foot level by July, 1895. The yearly product of this mine is 400,000 tons of coal. The remarkable feature of the mine is the comparatively low tem porature—seldom rising above 75 de grees Fahr. Shintoism. There are no idols in the Shinto temples. Shintoism consists of the worship of ancestors and the powers of nature, the sun especially. 'Ihe only objects in tho temples are a small mirror, emblematic of light, and some strips of white paper. Pilgrimages to various places form a feature of this religion. In Greater »w York.

He kuows me quite well.—Wanderer. Runaway Stan. There are a certain class of stars which fly through space with a velocity so enormous ss to baffle every attempt to account for them. They are known to the investigators ns "runaway stars” and aro no longer reckoned as being among the phenomena of extreme rari ty. One of these in the constellation of the Great Hear known as "lloombridgo, 1830,” long led the van of stellar speed, sweeping over at least £00 miles of space each second. Trofessor l’riehard has prov ed that the inconspicuous ob ject called Cassiopeia is a sun 40 times more luminous than our own, and that it is traveling at the prodigious rate of 300 miles per second. Dr. Klklns has found something more wonderful in the speed line in Arcturus, which is jog ging along at 400 miles a second ns a steady pace, but having strange bursts of speed, during which time its velocity is increased by about one-fourth. Home of the runaways fly along in pairs and are therefore supposed to be connected by some invisible "bond of union.” This presumption wus ilrst advanced some twenty-tlvo years ago and is even now being investigated by the leaders in astronomical work. Uow to Retain Beauty. Lady Londonderry, whose exquisite .ose and white loveliness time has not, tho heart to despoil, attributes her youthful freshness to the practice of spending one out of every ten days in bed. She sleeps until she wakens natu rally, takes a warm bath and goes back to bed again, where she partakes of a light breakfast, remaining in bed rest ing until Bix o'clock in the evening, while her maid reads to her a light novel. At six o'clock she puts on her dressing robe and has her dinner served in her room, and reclines on her sofa until ten o’clock. II. L. Holley in a bulletin from the North Dakota station gives tho percent age of germination and the yield of wheat from normal seed and from seed frosted, winter bleached, immature and heated in the bin. The seed from normal seed was much larger than that from seed injured in any way. Normal seed and injured Bced guve practically the same weights for the same volume of grain. Smutted wheat, however, weighed slightly less for a given vol ume than sound wheat. Tho author recommends selection by means of a fanning mill of large grains for seed.

W.N.U A New Substance Discovered. A German chemist is reported to have discovered a new substance which lias the remarkable and unh|uo property of solidifying when heated and remaining liquid at temperatures below zero. It. has been named ‘‘cryestate," and is ob tained by mixing together equal parts of phenol, camphor and saponine, and adding a somewhat smallur proportion of essence of turpentine. Certain sub stances, like the albumens, harden on heating, but this is the only product that again liquefies on heating.

The Kansas Farmer says: Never seize a fowl by the tail, is a fine one, nor touch the back, but grasp both legs at once with a firm, tight, quick hold, and then raise free from the ground or perch and hang the body down clear of any obstacle. This method does not ruftle the plumage or turn a feather, which in a fine birtl must be avoided. When the web ol the feathers is once broken it car never be united again, and where mucli handled this often occurs, giving the bird a ragged appearance. Worms in Horses.
