Warn bold came out of the mountains. He had long curling black locks, a ■lender, supple body, and an indefina ble air which can. perhaps, best be described as patience. No one in town had ever seen him before, and he did j not aay anything about his past. He appeared, in fact, to be interested only j in the future, and his interest in that j wa* so broad and general that it was almost the sole theme of his discourse. I Not only was it the subject of his con versation. but he harangued about it on the street corners evenings after j the men had come down from the mines. “What are you waiting for?” he w< aid cry. .standing hatless or the street wall the sunset throwing a red light about his emotional face. “You waiting for these mighty mountains to rol! up as a scroll? You want the sun to drop down out of the sky and the stars to shoot from their places? Does it need all that to show you that the day of Judgment will surely come? Why. you blind leaders of the blind, the miracles are about you on every hand, and they are within yourselves. Nothing is so wonderful as yourselves, and If you will read the book of your own hearts you will find there the as surances of immortality—nay. you will discover an int>orn sense of justice wh:>h will warn you that the day of judgment must come.” Such words as these he would speak in rather a low voice of even modulation; then, with a sudden wild gesture, he would fairly scream: “Why, then, do you dally? Tomorrow exploding dynamite at your mines may hurl you out of the world. While you are delaying your bor.^e may slip and carry you with him down the precipice. Now is the time to rej»eut! Hurry! Hurry! You can not run fast enough. But the way is difficult and the shadows of night are coming fast. There he waits you on the mountains. Will you run with eager feet* then the hour being what it was— with a sudden glory the sun would t rich thedistant snows of the mountain indicated by the preacher, and it would It proved to be the case. Never be fore had he been so fierce in his de nunciations of anything as he was of that circus. The town was shaken by the storm of his disapproval—and it was divided as to its course of action. The night the circus came to town Wambold held a prayer service, and he cried with a great voice that Satan was in the midst of them with a sca/ let temptation. Some of the children wept. They did not want to belong to Satan, but neither did they want to stay away from the circus. The blinds of the preacher’s cabin were closed that evening, and no light shown through them. The people won dered why. They could never have imagined the truth—that Wambold lay face downward upon the clean linen of his bed crying aloud to the Lord of the hills to give him refuge from the harassments of the evil one. Nor could they have guessed that when the mountains brooded over the sleeping town that the preacher crept out of his house and did not stay his steps till he stood where the showmen were driving the stakes for their tents, and the women were boiling black coffee over their camp fires. He sniffed the indescribable circus aroma—horses, leather, sawdust, fodder—as if it were the sweet south wind breathing upon a bank of violets. He bent an eager ear to the jokes of the men, to the long night plaint of the caged leopard and the loud laughter of the women. Then he stole back again to his darkened cabin. The next morning the sun smiled with confidential jocularity upon the town, and it beheld every woman and son of woman going to the circus—and the town was clear of hysteria for the first time in a month. “We’ll meet the parson by the foart side a-warnin’ us, I’ll bet,” said Cud White fo his wife. But he was wrong. All day, while the drums beat and the horns played, and the ringmaster snapped his whip, and the bareback riders labored at their nimble task— there were two sessions of the circus that day—the blinds of Wambold's cabin remained fast. After it was all over the people went -IS MY NAME ANY OF YOUR BUSI NESS?" become indeed a Mount of Transfigura tion. It was easy, listening to words like these, to forget that the speaker’s green velveteen jacket, with its tar nished bullion embroidery, was greasy with the trailing of the long black curls about the shoulders, nor was it pertinent to observe the incongruity of this tawdry garment with the miner’s coarse shirt and the weather-beaten sombrero, which, oddly enough, was not the sombrero of the mountains, but that of the Arizona cattle plains. The trousers reached only to the knee and matched the jacket in color, texture and decoration; from the knees down the preacher's legs were incased in high-heeled top boots such as cowboys affect. “Ain’t you no more to your name than what you've told?” asked Cud White, the bartender. ’’Wambold ain’t mu. h of a Christian name to my guess in’.“ The barteflder, who knew Christian usages, and the preacher, who did not. smiled at each other meaningly, and a crowd gathered round. The parson drew something from his hip pocket with a sort of a flourish—something like the throwing of a kiss—and looked at it with a close but imper sonal interest. “Cud,” he said, softly, “is my name any of your business?” “I don’t know- as it is." replied Cud. agreeably. So they shook hands, and It was decided generally that the preacher had grit. His stock went up 5«) per cent. As time went on the preacher grew more impassioned, and many of the women and a few of the men submit ted to immersion in the icy mountain stream and went on their way prais ing. For a time an excessive and demonstrative happiness pervaded the town. The echoes gave hack the hymns which the people sung together in the open air under the stars, and the dawn saw praise meetings held by the side of the tramway that led to the mines. A strange light began to burn in Wam bold s eyes, and his cheek bones be came more prominent, as fasting and prayer and exhortation wore him thin, and his magnetic hands were more restless than ever in their movements. In the midst of all this excitement the posters of a circus were posted on the billboards. It was done over night between the coining of the passenger and the going of the freight trains, and in the morning the preacher was seen standing before them a long time. It worried the people. Was he going to be so rigorous as to forbid them in dulgence in their chiefest pleasure? to their homes penitent. They were touched by the silent rebuke of those closed shutters. Some of them knocked at the door, but there was no answer. “Well have to make up with the parson tomorrow,” said they, contrite ly. But the morrow brought them a strange tale. It was the station agent who told it. “Yes.” he said to those who got wind of his tale, “when the circus folks come down to take No. 6 at 4:15, 1 seen a familiar form amongst ’em. ‘Snucks,’ says I. 'it’s the parson!’ But I didn’t reely believe it. It was. though. The women, they was pettin’ him an’ twistin’ his curls about their fingers, and the men was slappin’ him on the back an’ laughin’ fit to kill. I called out: 'That you, parson?’ An’ he stopped stone still an’ looked at me like a baby that is goin’ to cry. Then he puts his fingers to the end of his nose and wags ’em at me, an’ that there girl that did the jumpin’, through the paper whoops, she pulls him up on the platform. ‘Ole friend of yourn?’ I asks the ringmaster. ‘Who? Wain bold?’ says he. ‘Well, I should snicker! Best clown I ever had.’ I thought that was the last of th’ parson, but just as th’ train was pullin’ out he comes on the platform and he looks at th’ mountain an’ kin’ o’ trembles, an’ then he looks like a eryin’ baby agin. But I heard th’ women yellin’ to him, an’ one of th’ fellers he comes out an’ yanks him in. And th’ train got a move on ’er and wTent slidin’ down th’ grade.” Tombstone I'liotograpbs. Photographing tombstones is a novel industry which has been instituted by a colored man in this city, who was at one time boy-of-all-work in a photo graph gallery. He has recently branched out for himself, and has al ready established a remunerative busi ness, which promises to open even a wider field in the future. He visits the various cemeteries with his cameras, and when the day is fair he takes pic tures of many of the imposing monu ments. After he has developed his plates he takes proofs around among the relatives of the deceased, and usu ally finds a reac/ sale for his pictures. Of course, he has to take chances, for he works entirely without orders, trusting to sentiment for his sales. Still, he says it is very seldom that he doesn’t get an order. He also has a habit of haunting the marble works where tombstones are made, and by striking while the iron is hot he takes a picture before even the bereaved rel atives have seen the stone.—Philadel phia Record. THE BLACK WALNUT. Oar European Cousin. Are Paying High Prices for It. The great size often reached by this tree, the richness of the dark brown wood, the unique beauty of the grain sometimes found in burls, knots, feath ers and in the curl of the roots, all conspire to make this the most choice and high-priced of all our native woods, says the Berea Quarterly. Twenty-five years ago walnut was ex tensively used in the manufacture of fine furniture and finishings in this country, but manufacturers adroitly drew attention to the beauty of darkly stained quartered oak and the use of the rarer wood has greatly declined. But all this time the search for tine black walnut logs has gone on system atically, though quietly, the trade at tracting little attention, though the volume of lumber handled has been large. Though found to some extent in the Atlantic states from Massachu setts southward, the great source of supply has been the central portions of the Mississippi valley. The walnut is at home in the rich alluvial bottom lands of tne western streams and in the stony limestone soils of the hills and mountains and in such localities the buyers have left few trees unsur veyed. Throughout eastern Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas, as well as the states along the Ohio and its tribu taries. may be seen a few logs at this little station, a car or two at that, with carefully hewn sides and painted ends, ready for the market. If you ask where the market is you will find that the great bulk of this rare lumber goes to Europe. While we have been led into an enthusiastic admiration for fine oak. stained according to the de gree of antiquity it is supposed to represent, our European cousins have j been paying fancy prices for the rich black walnut that we have allowed to go “out of fashion.” LOVING WIFE And the Trouble She Saved Her Hus band by Thought fulness. Philadelphia Inquirer: "You've all read lots of jokes about the woman who gets up in the dead of the night to rifle her husband’s pockets," said a friend of the Saunterer. “They usual- | ly confine themselves to the purloining of what small change happens to be there. But here’s a case 1 know of. of a woman in West Philadelphia, who showed much more enterprise than that, and who, I think, deserves the palm. It happened the other night. The woman's husband is a traveling man and is now home for a couple of months. He was out the other night, and as he did not get in until between two and three in the morn ing, he was pretty sleepy and his slum ber was resultantly heavy. His wife happened to be just out of change at the time, and she thought of the old wav of getting it. She got up quietly and proceeded to go through the suit which her husband had just taken off. There was not a cent of change to be found, and she saw with dismay that the smallest thing was a ten-dollar bill. She didn't have nerve enough to take that, and she was rather in despair for a moment. Then she came upon a little bundle of tickets bound with an elastic. Her face brightened up and she put the package in her jewel box. The next morning the clerk at the re demption office of one of the railroads paid out three dollars and thirty-two cents for seven unused return coupons, and the woman went briskly off to spend her ill-gotten gains. And when she told a friend, and the friend sug gested that her husband wouldn’t bless her when he wanted the tickets, she answered in a very injured tone. ‘Why, Just think of the trouble I saved him in going way down to that horrid of fice myself.’ ” STATISTICS OF HUMAN LIFE. lalue Which Should B« Attached to Every One's Words. Statistical scientists will not let us alone. Everything we do or say is submitted to the closest analysis; and the figures emerge full of warning and reproach, says Collier's Weekly. The newest tabulation of our doings comes from the workshop of M. Alfred Arkas. who is minuteness itself. He has worked out, first, an approximate cal culation of the numoer of words the normal man utters in the course of a year. Ignorant or cultured, playing on the miner's vocabulary of 200 words, or on the university professor’s thesaurus of many thousands, it appears that we let fall 11,800,000 words between Janu ary and December. Every year wre shake hands about 1,200 times, expend ing on the ceremony a force sufficient to raise a locomotive weighing eighty tons. The raising of our eyelids is accomplished 94.600,000 times per year and represents the consumption of en ergy capable of lifting a weight of fifty-one pounds. Turning to the di vision of our time, it is found that a normal man living seventy years has spent no less than twenty-four years nine months and fifteen days asleep and eleven years and eight months at work. His recreation has occupied ex actly the same length of time as his work. He has passed five years and ten months in moving about and the same space of time in the operation of feeding. His toilet has occupied two years and eleven months. Two years and eleven months.also.passed in doing nothing or in little things that are not easily classed. The surprise is the estimate that a man passes exactly the same time in thinking as in speak ing—one year five months and a half. Which gives one a new idea of the value of what ought to be attached to every man's utterance. She Gave Herself Away. The York (Maine) Transcript says that a Portland minister recently called upon one of the families in his parish. He ascended the steps and knocked at the door. Receiving no re sponse he was about to depart, when he heard a window in the next house open and a woman’s voice: “Mrs. Smith,’ the minister’s at your door.” What was the pastor's surprise and amusement when he caught Mrs. ’Smith’s” response wafted gently around the corner of the house: ”Sh! don’t you s’pose I know it!” The next Sunday after service Mrs. “Smith” met her pastor and expressed her sorrow that she was away when he had called. I New Inventions. In order to prevent bottles being re- i filled a Connecticut inventor provides 1 the bottle with an i extension within which the cork is sealed. and from which the cork can not be removed. In order to open the bottle the extension is broken off by means of a specially ; constructed tool which serves the neck extension. A clever pneumatic tire, which pre- j sents three thicknesses of material upon the tread, has been invented by a New York inventor, who provides a doubly folded tube with a detachable inner tube, the whole being, when in flated, fixed with a crescent-shaped rim. A peculiar invention in the form of a water massage apparatus has been pat ented to a Chicago inventor who pro vides a reservoir with a return pipe provided with a pump and in front of the return pipe the part to be treat ed is placed so that the fluid is thrown with force against the affected part.

There are one hundred cases of catarrh • f the pelvic organs to one of catarrh of the head. Most people think, becaus they have no catarrh of the head, they have no catarrh at all.

When ihis tube is inflamed you have a rumhling sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it i' entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can he taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucus surfaces.
