The men had answered an “ascents
' wanted" notice in person, and when
he fonnd it was to sell a book he
backed away.
“Why don’t yon want it?” asked the
chief. “You can do well with it.”
“No, I can’t," he replied, firmly.
“I’ve scot gall enough and know how
to talk, but not for books. I’ve lost
tny nerve in that line. 1 used to ho

went out with a book of interest to
Women, just to fill in a week of spurn
time I had, and got a set-hank. The
first house I struck was presided over
by a woman who was about the
scrawniest specimen I ever saw.
“•Good morning, miss,’I says to
her, thinking the ‘miss’ would catch
her, whioh it did temporarily. ‘I have
here a book which I’m sure will inter
est you. It is just what you want;
tells you how to remove wrinkles and
traces of age; how to make a thin,
scrawny neck plump and firm; how to
cultivate a perfect complexion; how to
restore an old faco to youth; how to
turn gray hair back to its original
color; how to make a bad figure per
fect; how to develop sunken cheeks
round and full; how to shape the
limbs, hands and feet; how to make
thin hair grow; how to make women
beautlful;*how to—’ and right there I
stopped. I don’t know what made me
do it, but something in her expression
warned me, so to speak, and all at
. once it struck me that what I was
talking about and what that woman
was didn’t colnolde exactly, and I had
put my foot in it Anyhow, somehow
I got out of there in a wretched condi
tion, and since that fatal moment I’ve
had no heart in selling books. Not
mnch," and he walked out.
AND IT WASN’T REAL.
Bat tbs Tout Lady Did Not Know It
and Thor* Wat a Scene.
Those little patent affairs which
are the latest In toydom are destined
to create a great deal of excitement
along crowded city thoroughfares.
One day last week, for instance,
there was a group of male pedestrians
gathered in close ranks with craned
neoks about a fakir on a Chicago
street.
A fresh-faced, pretty girl in a big
hat and a stylish wrap sallied jauntily
down the street, the embodiment of
brave and independent womanhood.
This dauntless young woman el
bowed her way ahead through the
crowd and glanoed casually at the
fakir with a little supercilious smile,
which included the grou p of curious
loiterers.
Suddenly the group .was agitated
and swayed in from the curb, and a
small dark object scurried across the
pavement.
“O—w!”
A distinctly feminine scream smote
the clroumamblent air and the brave
young woman, her eyes distended by
terror, grabbed at her skirts with
both hands and sprang into the mid
dle of the street, recklessly under the
very nose of a herdic horse. The
, herdic driver said something emphatic;
the men on the pavement grinned;
the fakir dangled his patent gray
. mouse and expatiated on its resem
' blance to the real thing, and the
young woman made a wide circuit of
the fakir’s corner and dived into the
crowd skurrying down Washington
, street __
RICH BONDHOLDERS.
^ v||BaMS of These Favorites of Fortune
Kept Secret by the Treasury.
The millionaire is commonly repre
sented as engaged in clipping coupons
from bonds. This is an eggregious
error. Bich men, as a rule, do not
hold ooupon bonds The reason is
quite obvious. Such bonds are not
safe property. They are always pay
able to bearer, like treasury notes. If
lost the government will not replace
them Aooordingly, for the sake of
eeourity, people are constantly ex
changing them for registered bonds.
Thus the sum total of coupon bonds
. outstanding, which la now about
970,000,000, Is all ths time diminishing.
They are mostly in the hands of small
folders. With the registered bonds it
is quite different. Thty are rich men’s
property par excellence. At present
about9300,000,000 worth of them are
held by private individuals. Of this
great sum 987,000,000, or not far from
one-half, are owned by 1,000 persons,
roughly speaking, whose holdings
average 980,000. The names of these
fortunate individuals are kept secret
by the treasury. Some of the fortunes
possessed in this shape are enormous.
Some of the greatest belong to the
Vanderbilts. Old William H. Vander
bilt had 948,000.000 in registered bonds
it one time.
TM MlMmu'a Trick.
Some retail silk salesmen have a*
clever sleight-of-hand trick that de
ceives many purchasers. The little
game is to snatch up a sample of silk
in the presence of a customer, pretend
with violent gestures to twist it into
a rope, and then, with a sudden flout,
to shake it free of folds and creases.
Any woman knows that silk such as
will undergo treatment of that sort is
, durable, but the woman who buys the
silk and tries the experiment at home
meets with grievous disappointment.
The salesman’s twisting process has
been a clever make-believe.

| Diamond* Declared to De Mantes of
Knormonaly Active Atom*.
1/ you think your polished diamond
In a mere aggregation of inanimate
crystals you are away wrong. If you
imagine that its'components are de*
void of orderly, coherent motion, you
»re equally mistaken. It has come to
pass that we are given to understand
that diamonds are masses of active
molecules. Inasmuch as every com
pact body is composed of multitudes
of exceedingly small, yet not indis
tinguishable molecules, it might be
concluded that in a solid, at least,
these particles would be clustered to
gether in an indivisible mass. This
theory as applied to diamonds is id
correct and has been completely over
thrown by the researches and experi
mentations of Sir Robert llali of Liv
erpool. The facts set forth by Mr. Hall
with reference to the structure of the
diamond are fascinating. He asserts
that were the sensibility of our eyes
increased so as to make them a fe vv
million times more powerful it would
be seen that the diamond atoms,
which forms the perfect gem when ag
gregated In sufficient myriads, are
each in a condition of rapid movement
of the most complex description.
Each molecule would be seen swing
ing to and fro with the utmost vio
lence among the neighboring mole
cules and quivering from the shocks
it receives from encounters with other
molecules, which occur millions of
times in each second. The hardness
and impenetrability bo characteristic
would at first sight seem to refute the
supposition that it is no more than a
cluster of rapidly moving particles;
but the well-known, impenetrability
of the gem arises from the fact that,
when attempt is mude to press a steel
point into a stone, it fails, because tho
rapidly moving molecules of the stone
batter the metal with such extraor
dinary vehemence that they refuse to
allow it to penetrate or even to mark
the crystallized surface.
DIED OF A BROKEN HEART.
\ Kegto'i Pathetic Grlet Over the Death
ot HD Wife.
There recently died in Louisiana an
aid negro woman named Aunt Harriet
Moore, who left to mourn her the
husband with whom she had lived
lomething over fifty years. Uncle
Nuggie seemed brokenhearted over
the loss, and it is thought finally had
his mind unsettled by his bereave
ment. At any rate after Aunt Harriet
had been dead and buried severai
days her husband went by night to
the cemetery and disinterred the re
mains and carried them home again. |
He was met on the road by a man of
his own color, who, taking hitu for a
ghost, fled from him. He, however,
told what he had seen, and the neigh
bors went to Uncle Nuggie’s cabin and
found him engaged in rubbing the
feet of the corpse with mustard, and
trying to force down the rigid thro at
hot whisky and water.
The old man said he had been
warned in a dream that his wife was
only in a trance, and that if he would
fetch her home and use measures te
revive her she would come to life
again. His grief when the body was
again taken from him was pitiful, and
he seemed unable to attend the
second burial. Hut, as the coffin was
being lowered into the grave, Uncle
Nuggie suddenly appeared, and,
breaking through the party about the
grave, threw himself into the hollow
on the casket. He was gotten out
with all speed, but he was found to be
quite dead, though no injury to him
was visible, and the verdict given by
physicians is that the old man died in
the act of casting himself down of
heart failure, or, in other words, liter*
illy of a broken heart.
Got Even With the Judge.
It is told of Henry W. Paine, the
Boston lawyer, who recently died in
that city, and who more than once
refused a seat on the Massachusetts
supreme court bench, that while he
was arguing a case one day before
Chief Justice Gray the latter inter
rupted the course of the argument
with the impatient remark: “Mr.
Paine, you know that is not law.”
The nature and manner of the inter
ruption were of a kind to throw even
the most self-possessed advocate off
his balance. Mr. Paine, however,
without any outward man ifestation of
snuoyance or embarrassment, replied
with simple dignity, “It was law uhtU
your honor spoke,” and proceeded
with his argument.
Where Suicide Vu Excusable.
A beggar at Pesth, Hungary, who
was arrested for throwing himself
into the river with intentions of com
mitting suicide, was discharged after
telling his remarkable story. He was
an aged and shriveled specimen of hu
manity, with, long, patriarchal beard,
and acknowledged that, he was past
04 years of age. His excuse for at
tempting to take his own life was that
he was no longer able to take care of
his father and mother, who were aged
\25 and ISO years respectively.

BROmJBR AMD SISTER.
Reunited—A Homeless Wanderer Recog
nized at a Mission Dinner.
An affecting incident in connection
with the distribution of charity in the
Bethel mission, which is located at the
foot of Canal street, Newark, N. J.,
some time ago. has just become
known. The mission is conducted by
T. Graham and Duncan Forbes, aided
by Mrs. Graham. They gave a free
dinner to all who had attended their
services. Mrs. Graham sang several
hymns.
While the meal was b eing served to
the motley crowd of homeless men
Mrs. Graham was particularly struck
with the appearance of one ragged
but intelligent-looking individual, and
remarked to her husband that he
much resembled a brother whom she
had not seen or heard from in many
years. Mr. Graham thought little of
the suggestion, but the longer Mrs,
Graham looked at the man the stronger
the impression grew.
As Bhe filled his plate tlie second
time she asked:
“Are you John Coleman from Glas
gow?’’
“Yes,” he replied. “Are you An
nie?”
“I am,” she said, and brother and
sister clasped hands as the tears
started from their eyes. The aston
ished gathering of poor and hungry
took in the situation—and some one of
them started the hymn, “Praiso God,
from whom all blessings flow.”
Coleman said afterward that he rec
ognized his sister’s voice and his moth
er’s favorite hymn while she was sing
ing, but was afraid to speak lest he
might be mistaken. He has a good
home in Glasgow, but came to Amer
ica to better himself.
He was employed for a time in Find
lay, Ohio. He lost his position when
timos grew hard and he had walked
all the way to Newark.
AN UNSIGNED CHECK.
The Amount Wan 834,000 and It Wai
Cashed by a New York Bank,
The story of a check passing through
a number of channels without any
one discovering that it was not signed
was related a few days ago. It ap
pears that a certain Bostonian, while
in New York, found it necessary to
pay the Union Trust company, of that
city. 934,000, which he did by giving it
a check on one of the Boston banks.
The check whs accepted and was
deposited in that company’s bank.for
collection. The following day it was
presented at the Boston bank, when it
Was discovered that there was no
name signed to it to show by whom
the aback had bean issued, a* it was
written on one of the blank forms of
checks of that institution. It looked
as if there was nothing to be done
but to return the check to New York,
when the cashier thought he recogniz
ed the handwriting, and going to the
telephone called up the party who he
believed had issued the check.
“Were you in New York last week?”
asked the cashier. “Yes,” said the
man at the other end of the phone.
“Well,” continued the cashier, “did
you give the Union Trust company a
check for $34,000?”
“Yes,” was the reply; “what’s the
matter? Have you not charged it up
to my account?”
“I would have done so,” replied the
cashier, “but there was no name
signed to it.’J
“Great Scott!” was the answer; “can
you hold that check until I get up
there?”
The check was held, and in a few
minutes a man came in all out of
breath and affixed his signature.
BELIEVED IN CIGARETTES.
Why He Debated the Question of Theh
Desirability.
“You can say what you like against
cigarettes,” said the quiet man to the
stranger who had been condemning
the use of the little cylinders in un
measured terms, “but you will never
get me to say a word against them."
“Why not, sir?”
“They have been of the greatest
benefit to me.”
“In what way? Do you use them
. iparingly?”
“No; I don’t use them at all.”
“Perhaps you are a manufacturer
of cigarettes?”
“No, sir.”
“Then you must be a doctor, with a
good practice among cigarette-smok
ing youths?”
“That isn’t it, either.”
“Then I should really like to know
how cigarettes could possibly have
benefited yon, sir?”
“I’ll tell you. A young fellow of
twenty-one was the only life between
me and $300,000. He was very fond
of cigarettes, and about a month ago
he was burled.”
Does Foreign Missionary Work Pay?
Pessimists say that it does not.
Optimists say that it does. Whether
the one is right or the other must be
judged from facts. On e fact is that in
India the number of heathen is in
creasing continually. There are
2,036,560 native Christians out of a
population of 287,000,000. The Mo
hammedans number 57,000,000, the
Hindoos 200,000,000. It is said that
there were 30,000,000 more Christless
•Orila la IWt than in the previous dec
ade. Here is the other fact, stated
in the Missionary Review of the World.
“The native ordained pastors of India
have increased by ninety per cent
within nine years. ”
Her Occupation.
A pretty typewriter who is em
ployed at a large Indianapolis office
was talking in a rather elevated tone
of voice to a gentleman of her ac
quaintance in a car. He was evident
ly unaequainted with the character of
her occupation, and asked her what it
was. “Punching holes in the English
language,” was the answer. And
there were ample indications that she
was speaking the literal truth.
HEROISM OP A LUMBERMAN.
Currying a Wounded Comrade Forty
Miles Through the Snow.
A young man, Henry Brault, a rest*
dent of Peterboro, Ont, recently per*
formed an act of heroism, actuated
by friendship, which is worthy of
record among the heroic deeds of
heroic men of any age. The Man*
Chester Union says that Brault and
another young man, John Jamieson,
were at work in the wild Madawaska
region for the St Anthony lumber
company. Jamieson met with a se
vere accident which rendered him
delirious, and Brault started with,
him for civilization, where surgical
treatment could be had. They had
traveled ( on foot but _ a few
hundred yards when Jamieson’s
strength gave out and he became
helpless. Brault, determined to save
his companion if in his power,
shouldered the invalid and started on
his long, cold tramp of some forty
miles to the nearest railroad. With
out a moment’s sleep, and bearing,
besides his human burden, a pack of
provisions, Brault continued his jour
ney for four days and nights, through
cold and snow, until finally, almost
as helpless from exhaustion and
fatigue as his friend was from illness,
he had the supreme satisfaction of
reaching the end of his journey and
placing Jamieson where he was able
to be properly treated. Such a feat
of endurance seems almost incredible,
and only a seasoned woodman, inured
to hardship, could have accomplished
it; and among those capable of it It is
rare to find so striking an example of
disinterested friendship, even when
a human life is at stake. Whatever
his station in life may be, young
Brault deserves to rank among na
ture’s noblemen.
