Taerw was one a princess who m
wwa-j beautiful but who was also very
yru4 and self-willed, and who
J ways preferred lo ride rl bunt
taifcer than to alt tuodesllj io the
leuae and spin.
Hut to thi olden days it was cus
tomary and fltt.nir (or rmcs.
ewever beautiful and grand they
aaurhl las, to spin and weave with
their own bund and no otiti was
ashamed to wear a (oa which she)
had made lien.-K.
Irniinkartlo alone considered it a
uujranj to let I lis soft flax klip
through her fair finger; and her dia
lasts fur this occupation went so far
leal she jjavo tl o strictest com
asaad to have alt the spndles re
moved from hrr presence and from
the neighborhood of the castlu. that
Iter eyes might not be troubled oil h
tt alghl of the hated thing
Me. dow rode and bunted the whole
way; and great was hor duligbt it she
would give the death blow to the cap
tured Ug with her own hand, or
Vrtnjr down the innocent bird with
aer never-failing arrow.
Onoe It happened that when Irmln
(rde was out hunting she wa sud
denly surprised by a violent shower.
&he Bought shelter and aoon discov
red a little cottage of whose existence
either she oor anyone in her tra n
bad hitherto any knowledge, although
II stood but a Bhort distance from ttio
royal castle.
Irmlngarde entered with hor at
tendant and beheld, by the blazing
hearth-tire, a woman of wonderful
beauty who was busily turning the
plndlo while the yellow flax slipped
swiftly through hor flngors.
She cordially greeted the new.
vomers and invited thorn to be sealed
by the tire.
But Irmlngarde bad no word of
thanks for this friendly and hospit
able welcome. The sight of the spin
dle had aroused hor linger. In her
rage s e walked up to the beautiful
pinner and ordered her to desist im
mediately from hor work and to here
after remember the comrauuds of the
princess.
liut the beautiful woman only
smiled; and, without suffering her
lender flngors to resit a moment she
replied:
Dost thou think, proud princess,
that thy command can binder what
Heaven has orduinod for the use and
bono lit of the human raceP (iod gave
the flax that nion might not go naked
like the nnimuls; and that every
maiden might be taught those arts
which shall tit her for a future wife
and housekecpor. It Is for rough
men to bear the spear and bow; a
maiden should adorn horsulf with
genilenoss and practice those uceom
plishmonts which are learned by in
dustry and labor at the sacred hearth
tone of tha homo."
A scornful laugh escaped from the
lips of the princess.
Q'-Dost thou believe." she cried,
"that thy foolish words can change
me into a servant? Let others think,
if they please, thai the gods have
made this low work for womon. 1 do
not! and I would rather not havo any
husband I would rather that all men
hould flee from mo, than to lower
my pride and disgrace myself by such
common drudgery!"
The beautiful spinner arose. Tall
be stood, as a goddesa with bluzlng
yes and angry glance.
So let it be," sho said. -Thy
wish shall be fulfHIod. Never shall
the love of roan make thee happy; for
.' thou rejected the most beautiful or
nament of noble womanhood. Yea
all men Bhall fee from thee, and who
ever touches thee shall' curse thee.
The spindle, which thou hast brought
Into disgrace, with tha industry and
the Oiling work of woman, shall be
come the instrument of thy punish
ment, nnd thy lingers, which would
never spin a thread, shall hereafter
themselves be spun."
And thus it happened. A terrible
torm broke forth. The lightning
and the thunder resounded from the
clouds thai were as black as night
The attendants of the princess fled
in terror. But when the storm was
over, when the skies were again clear.
. there lay. where the house of the
apinoer had stood, only a heap of
tones; and over the ruins, grew the
nettle.
This, the pea ant folk say. is the
princess, who on account of her
wicked pride, was changed into this
prickly plant from whose stinging
lingers all men flee, and whose flax
like libers are spun and woven into
cloth. 1-rora the tier man.
Ittamarck an An redo to.
Prince Bismarck told a 6tory of the
battlefield of KoniggratA says the
1'all Mall Gazette. The old emperor,
then king of Prussia had exposed
himself and Ms staff to the enemy's
tire and would not hear of retreat
ing to a safe distance At last l'rince
Bismarck rode up to him. saying: "As
responsible minister i must insist up
on your majesty's retreat to a safe
distance. If your majesty were to be
killed the victory would be of no use
to us." The king saw the force of
this and slowly retreated, but in his
zeal returned again and again to the
front "When I noticed it " Trine
Bismarck went oa "I rose in my sad
die and looked at him. lie under
stood perfeotly and called out rather
angrily. "Yea I am coming. But
he did not get on fast enough, and at
last 1 rode up close to the king, took
my foot out of the stirrup, and secret
ly gave his horse an energetic kick.
Such. a thing had never before hap
pened to the fat mare, but the mora
was success'ul. for she shot off In
fine canter."

HENRY CLAY'S VALEDICTORY.
aiiwa Bwd hi raiaU rimuu
Ik Bvaaie Wave Bta4 te Taw.
John F. Cor Is write of Henry CI
farewell to the senate In the Ladles'
Hume Journal, rcgardlnc It as the moat
dramatic event ever witnessed In the
Totted States senate. Almost from ths
opening words of the famous valedic
tory the vast assemblage of people
ers In tears, and the "Great Common
er" was frequently Interrupted by the
sol of his auditors. "Tbs scene was
Ind.vd Inipreswlve as Mr. Clay pro
nounced the concluding words of bit
farewell to public life," says Mr. Coyle
"He stood for a moment after In rever
ential attitude, while all about blra
strong mn, swayed by the magnetic
power of the great orator, wept In al
ienee. The bushed suspense of intense
feeling and attention pervaded the
crowded assemblage aa the famous
statesman, with lowering eyes, re
sumed his seat. For several moments
the silence was unbroken; senators aat
as It In the shadow of some impending
calamity; men of all parties seemed
equally overcome by the pathos and
majesty of the great statesman's fare
well. As air. Clay rose to leave the
chamber after adjournment, which di
rectly followed his address, and after
he had aald farewell to all the other
senators, he encountered Mr. Calhoun.
The eye of the whole assemblage
were Died on these two old friends and
old political antagonist. There waa a
pause In the demonstration which
awaited Mr. Clay the moment of sus
pended anticipation was almost pain
ful For Ave years they had been es
tranged, and the only words which had
passed between them had been those
harshly spoken In debate. But now, as
they met, the old time came over them.
They remembered only the political
companionship of twenty years' stand
ing. The Intervening differences which
had chilled their hearts toward eacli
other were forgotten. The tears sprang
to their eyes. They shook each other
cordially by the hand. Interchanged a
'God bless you, and parted. The re
leased suspense which awaited this
tearful scene found vent In shouts and
cheers, which were taken up by the
crowds outside the senate chamber, ex
pecting Mr. Clay's appearance. He was
surrounded by the waiting thousands
on his way to his carrluge, and throngs
followed him even to his hotel."
Cholera, Infantum.
No one supposed that cholera Infan
tum Is wilfully caused by mothers or
persons who have infanta In charge:
yet in soma places a large proportion
of all children born die of that dla
ease. That it results from causes
which are preventable are shown by
several facts:
(1) Among the higher classes of peo
ple the mortality is very much less
than among the less Intelligent and
less provident.
(2) Infanta who are nourished only
by mother's milk are almost wholly
exempt from cholera Infantum.
(3) The disease Is undoubtedly causeo
by changes In the Infant's food or
drink, due to bacteria, fungi, or soini
sort of micro-organisms.
Diarrhoea. What is true of cholera
Infantum is, in great part, true of di
arrhoea. The great cause of Infant
mortality Is largely due to Ignorance
and carelessness on the part of those
who have the care of children.
It ought to be known to every per
son who has the care of a child during
the hottest day of July and August
that a good light, clean, dry, warm
fannel over the entire abdomen Is a
very Important article for every child
who Is In danger of any bowel trouble.
The rapid evaporation of perspiration,
and the consequent serious coldness of
the abdomen, can be prevented by the
flannel.
Illgceat Farm on Karth.
The largest farm In this country and
probably In the world is situated In
the southwestern part of Louisiana. It
extends 100 miles east and west. It
was purchased in 1S83 by a syndicate
of northern capitalists, by whom it Is
still operated. At the time of its pur
chase its 1,500.000 acres was a vast
pasture for cattle belonging to a few
dealers In that country. Now It is di
vided into pasture stations or ranches,
existing every six miles. The fencing
Is said to have cost about $50,000. The
land is best adapted for rice, sugar,
corn and cotton. A tract, say half a
mile wide, is taken, and an engine Is
placed on each side. The engines are
portable and operate a cable attached
to four plows. By this arrangement
thirty acres are gone over In a day
with the labor of ' only three men.
There Is not a single draught horse on
the entire place, if we except those
used by the herders of cattle, of which
there are 16,000 head on the place.
The Southern Pacific railway runs for
thirty-six miles through the farm. The
company has three steamboats operat
ing on the waters of the estate, cf
which 300 miles are navigable. It has
also an Ice-house, bank, shipyard and
rice mills. From the Knoxville Trib

Oil Well Supply company, who resides
on a farm In close proximity to the
fair grounds, owns an apple tree which
can be considered a sort of novelty. A
few years ago It was known as a "wild"
apple tree, but Mr. Scott had It grafted
and It now produces seven different
kinds of apples, some of which grow
to an immense size and have a deli
cious taste.
