Tf am I V I lAAAAAAAAAAAAj An Innocent Drummer. Ho bado h!a wlfo a tearful good-by. "My lovo, my only one! The Urao will toon bo hero when I chall bo In a posi tion to snap my Angers at fto and Bet lip as my own boss. Then wo shall have no more of theso cruel partings. And you will bo true to me?" "As 1 always am," Bho responded. "You did not forget to put thnt photo you had especially taken for mo In my gripsack, did you?" "Oh, dear no! Aro you euro you wllJ look at It sometimes, love?" "You wicked little doubter; you know I should bo wretched without nt leant such a precious scmblanco of my pet to look at dally, nightly." Draw the veil of charity over his grief and the trenchery of one In whom he had unbounded confidence. In brief, oho, his only love, his pet, his wife, had secretly planned to mako him "wretched." She had taken Miat photograph from his gripsack and was gloating over his misery when ho should discover that only memory re mained to him, for tho time being of his darling's looks. "Tho dear fellow, how ho will Bcold mo for tho trick," she thought, "but I will send him tho photo In tho very first letter." Thus appeasing her con science she waited for his first letter. It came from Chicago. "My heart's delight," It began. "Got hero 0. K. this a. m. Have been wrest ling with tho trade all day, and a tough time I've had of it. Weary and fagged, I have retired to my room, Bhut tho glided atmosphere of sin that envelopes this terrible city and taken from my satchel your sweet picture. It 13 before mo as I write. I shall kiss It when I have Bald my evening prayers. It vlll rest under my pillow. It Is my own so lace until I hold ycu, my sweet wife, in these faithful arms again." Thus far had she read when she top pled over on tho ffoor. What comfort she found there Is hard to say; but a great determination rose with tho stricken wife, who went out on hour later and sought a telegraph office. Her husband had been saying his prayerB abroad that evening, and wlun ho got to his hotel about midnight his spiritual emotions received a rude shock by a telegram from his "only lovo." It wbb elaborate for a dispatch, but under tho circumstances one could not expect tho outraged wife to trans mit her feelings by the slow mall. Tho dispatch icad: "You aro no longer tho only drummer who 1b not a liar, as you have always claimed. Let the fraternity make you their chief in tho art, Had you taken tho pains even to look for tho photo you say your prayers to,' you would have discovered that I had to lease you removed it. My faith In you is dead, dead!" The husband clutched his hair. "What tho devil did I write to her, anyway?" he muttered. After awhile his face cleared. "By Jove! I muat have been- piling on taffy. That's what a man gets for trying to make a woman feel good! WHAT HAVE YOU TO SAY FOR YOURSELF? Poor llt-tlo dear, what a fume she mint be lu! Lucky for me she gavo her grievance away. What geese woman arc! Bless her little noodle, her faith Bhall be resurrected." Forthwith he telegraphed to a know Ing friend: "Send me, first mall, photo of my wlfo. Bog, borrow, steal It somehow. Mum'c the word. Will write particu lars." About a week later a drummer, in dignified martyrdom, stood face to faco with a stern, but Very wept-out wife. She expected to sec him meek and humble but lie gazed upon her with scorn, and then passed Into liis room In crushing eilence. Bho was amazed. With quick im pulse sho followed, thanking heaven In hai' not locked her out. "Well!" sho bogan, with wavering courage. "What havo you to say for yourself?" Coldly, cruelly, ho looked at her. "I?" he quorled. "Yes, you." "Woman, If It wore not for the over mastering love I bear you, I should never, never look upon you more!" Hie faco was convulsed with tragic suffering that was balm to hor heart to wltnccs, but she only sneered. "Can you explain the deception you tried to practice on me?" "Can :om obliterate tho insult pul upon your husband In that unwomanly diepati-h? A woman with bo littlo con fidence In her husband had better live alone. For my part I am not only dis gusted, but disenchanted." H turned sorrowfully away and boed his face in his hands. Sh p- r- d, J ,..7 nl Mi I Wit Wv i MM im m imJ I preached htm and laid tho letter which had caused her tuch grief, right under his eyes. "Read that. Knowing you had no picture of mine, what wbb I to think?" "What nny intelligent, rlghtmlndcd wife should have thought; you would huve said to yourself; 'Ho Is iucapnblo of deceit; ho has my picture nnyhow.' " "But you did not havo It." He looked nt her with said, resigned sorrow. "Oh. woman! without an atom of faith!" Then he put his hand in hib pocket and produced tho photgraph, "Oh! Darling! Forgive mo! You had my picture. The old thing taken bc foro wo were engaged! Why, I didn't know you ever had one of tlicr.e?" Tho restored confidence made her pretty blue eyes ewlm In tearful Joy. She put her arms around him, asking his pardon, caressing even Ills coat col lar. "My dear," sad he, looking inlo her face with grave, but loving reproach, "let thin bo a warning. Never doubt ine again, no matter what appeauincos may be. I can always look yon square ly In the eyes and say, 'I am inno cent.' " And she believed him. ARCTIC DISCOMFORTS. According to Dr. Kaiucii Thirst Is the Loading One. Dr. Nansen, who has just returned from an arctic journey, says that tho thirst induced by tho Irksomo labor of oledge-haullng Is tho severest dis comfort to tho explorer, aaya an ex change. Though tho polar world is covered with frozen water there Is nono for drinking purposes save that which Is thawed and on the march It Is al most impossible to thaw it. Other ex plorers complain bitterly of the ef fects of the wind and sun. It 13 well known that a very low degree of cold can bo homo without discomfort so long as the air Is still, but tho moment it gets Into motion it strikes tho skin like the blast of a furnace. Its effcctB havo often been described as precisely ; similar to those of a burn. The sun, when it is vialblo, Is hot, and peels nnd bllBtcrs tho skin, making It in ilnltcly more sensitive to tho nttack of the wind. Others, again, say that tho warm, relaxing damp of the polar sum mer, with all tho diseases that it .brings, Is Infinitely worse than tho In tense cold of winter; but, perhaps, af ter all, the greatest evil and misery which confront tho polar explorer spring from the fearful depression, mental and physical, of the long nights of 2,000 and 3,000 hours of gloom and seml-darknoss. Under its influence men seem to suffer like plants de prived of sunlight. A week or so will often completely change their charac ters, and tho enforced idleness univer sal gloom and Jjltter cold combined re duce life to Its lowest terms and mako it so miserable that many havo found refuge from It In insanity or suicide. lllrniliiRhiim'r. (lus-Ughtlng. In order to facilitate lighting in courts, the corporation undertakes to treat such lamps a3 public, on the prin ciple that a light Is almost as valuable as a policeman. In 1880 the number of court lamps was 4, consuming 60,000 cubic feet of gas, at an annual cost of 10; in 1894 tho number of lamps had increased to 1784, burning more than 25,000,000 cubic feet, and- the cost to 1,866 per annum. Of tho 160,005 houses in the district of supply, only 60,000 havo meters, nnd of these not more than three-fourths aro dwelllng-house3. In England gas fixtures are Individual property, furnished by tho tenant, nnd removable when he goes into another house, the landlord supplying only the connection with the street mains. Tho department now encourages landlords to connect their houses, to supply ten ants with fixtures, and to put In pre payment, or penny-ln-thc-slot, meters, like thoso in the artisans' houses be longing to tho corporation, ail to bo covered by tho gross cost of tho gas furnished at a rato of 3s. 4d. per thou sand. "An Object Lesson In Munici pal Government," by George F. Parker, in tlie November Century. No t'liiiiri Conccrt-d.irilt-ng In Now York. There Is one featuro of New York amusements that is wholly unknown to the Chinaman, nnd that is the concert-garden. To congregate In a pub lic, placo to drink intoxicating bever ages, listen to sensuous music, nnd watch vulgar displays or tho human figure; to bo waited upon by young women of more than questionable char acter; to tako part in profane and ob scene talk; all this Is beneath the dig nity of a Chinaman, and nowhere in tho Chinese quarter, from beginning to end, can such a place he found. But they aro found on the Bowery, nnd Goimans, Irishmen, Italians, and Jews fill the places to tho doors. "Tho Chi nese of New York," by Helen F.

Pnlnicr Without Hnmla Who Unto Done Kxoellcnt Work With Tliclr Foot. A roportor was strolling along n promlnout thoroughfare on Walnut Hills tho other day when ho canio upon a business room that was being re modeled tuul improved preparatory to occupancy. The carpenter who was do ing Hie work was a one-armed man, nud not only uui tinged his hatchet and Haw skillfully, but was quite Intelligent In conversation. He did not appear to bemoan tho fnte that hud deprived hhn of a good strong arm, but regarded It with tho air of a philosopher. Ho said that he was not tho only one-arnicd carpenter In Cincinnati that he knew of four or llvo other. Another one-armed man familiar to residents of tho Hill whoso misfortune would neeni to interfere with his voca tion, but tlocH not, Is the driver of 0110 of the big oil tank wagons He does everything required of a man with two arms In Mich a position, from driving the team to measuring out tho oil and delivering it to his customer. Judging from the following Instances published hi an Kngltsh journal, It would seem thnt the nbsence of one, or even both arms, need not Interfere with 0110 earning one's bread and but ter. "One of the leading Belgian arllstB of tho present day Is a gentleman who, In default of arms, paints with his foot. Ills name la Feint. He lives nt Ant werp, where he hai a spacious atelier In tho market place. "He uses ills stipple feet without any apparent effort to open his color box. clenn his brushes, set his palate and arrange his writing materials. Ho paints with surprising swiftness and delicacy of touch. H may be said of tiltn, too, that ho wiitctt an excellent foot. One of his friends s.iyn his writ ing is as bold, free and Mowing as any handwriting with which he Is acquaint ed. Ho Is, moreover, a man of gentle nature, courtly In manners, of highly cultivated intelligence and no less en gaging in speech than Jn appearance. 'Earlier in tho present century there nourished another armless artist, a lady named Hawlln, who, besides painting very tolerable pictures, learn ed to do with her toes a variety of In (cresting and Ingenious tilings cut watch papers and tho like. She grasp ed and worked her scissors In some way that has never been explained. "Miss Biillii was only a trltlc less un fortunate. She was horn without (oca or hands and without any more arm than was represented by a stump cut short above the elbow. Yet she man aged to mnk." for herself a coinfortablo living In the artistic AViiy. "Sho painted miniatures with exquis ite neatness and accuracy, and added to tills by cutting out paper profiles with the aid of her mouth, a pair of scissors nnd her two little slumps. The earl of Morton employed her to paint some portraits for him, and Introduced her to the notice of royalty, who also patronized her and put her in tho way Df obtaining advanced lessons In paint ing from one of the foremost men of die day. He also gave her a Binall pen sion, wllh tho aid of which ehe set up as a regular professional. She fell In lovo and married, but 'carried on her work, and was always known under tier maiden name."Cinclnnatl Euqulrcr. i'ickinu Chickens to music. CuHtoiiiH of the Itallnn l'oiillry Deal ith of San Fraiiclnco. Tlie sailor has his musical fchanty, to which he keeps time as he trots about the capstan until tho '.rchor Is hoisted to the peak; the farrier trills a lay to lighten his labors .is he pitches hay Into a wagon; and these songs arc fa inlllnr to many; but whoever heard or saw a gang of Italian chicken-pickers sing and denude ;'owls to the time of the music? Such a scene an be witnessed any Friday evening a( the Clay Street mar ket, while the cirploycs of the big poultry houses that havo their places of business there are preparing for sale the chickens that tho housewife buys for tlie Sunday dinner. The men seat themselves in a half circle and each takes a fowl. One stroke of a nharp knlfo ncrnsn tiic tliront puts the unfortunate squawking broiler out of Its misery, and then the ftuVninu of tho gang starts the song. As they catch tho air and tho tlmo the others chime In, and in an Instant the plucking begins. With rythmic mo tion tho nimble lingers grasp the feathers and pull them out during all the time of the song. FcatheiH fly In all directions, but tho song gees on until the last pin-feathers are removed nnd tho carcasses are tossed lnlo a pile, ready for the man who puts on tlie finishing touches and prepares them for the Inspection of prospective purchasers. , The rapidity with which a chicken is stripped of its feathers is astonishing to tiio uninitiated who has tried it but a few times, and so adept have these 111.cn become that they finish their fowls almost simultaneously, and the process Is repeated In unison. Three dozen birds is not considered a heavy night's work for one man, and when pressed tor time they manage to compass oven more than that. The song they sing Is remarkably lively and sweet, and much resembles the song of the fishermen as they row their boats, though the time Is much faster. San Francisco Call. Fall mul Winter Pnntiirc.

HOW FAR A MAN TRAVELS. liy the Alt! of tho Kurth'a isolation IIo Covers Many Miles nn Hour. An ordinary walk of an hour la equiv alent to a journey of 1,000 miles. Just as a beginning, saya tho Now York Journal. Tho averago person walks three mlleB nn hour, according to reck oning, but when it la considered thnt the world 1b constantly turning on lta axla It la apparent where tho 1,000 milC3 comes In. Thla la by no meana all. Tho earth mnkes a Journey around the sun overy year,, and a long but rapid trip it Is. Tho dlstanco of our planet from tho sun is put in round numbers at 92,000.000 miles. This Is tho radius of tho earth's orbit, half tho diameter of tho circle, aa It la called. Tho whole diameter 1b therefore 184, 000,000 miles, and the circumference, being tho diameter multiplied by 31, 41C, is about 578,000,000. This amaz ing distauco tho enrth travels in Its yearly Journey, nnd, dividing It by 365, wo And tho dally speed about 1,584,000 miles. Then, to get the dlstanco you rodo around tho Bun by your hour's walk, divide again by 24, and tho re sult Is about CC.000 miles. This la not tho end of tho hour's trip, however. Tho sun, with Its entlro brood of plan ets. Is moving In spaco at tho rato of 160,000,000 miles In a year. That la at tho rato of a littlo moro than 454,000 miles a day, or 18,900 miles an hour. So, adding tho threo miles of the leg travel to tho hour's nxlal movement of tho earth, this to tho earth's orbital Journey, and this ngnln to tho earth's excursion with tho sun, and you find you have traveled in tho hour 85,903 miles. STOPPING A TRAIN. Iinporlnnt Discovery Thnt Ilu Just Item MiuU In Kuropc. Somo Important dlscoverica have Just been made In Europe, says tho Now York Herald. How to stop a train when an accident la impending haa long been a problem. Many plans havo been euggested, but almost all havo been considered faulty for tho reason that they call for a quick stop page. In such a case tho shock would be bo great that the carriages between tho engine and tho rear of tho train would bo smashed to atoms and their occupants crushed to death. Evidently therefore a gradual stoppago Is Imper ative. An admirable plan, which en ables a train to alow down gradually, haa recently been tested at the rail road station In Dresden. It la extreme ly simple and has been found to work -well. No Intricato machinery la re quired, and tho cost must bo small, A track Is laid, the rails of which sink or slope gradually Into a bed of sand. Aa tho train passes over thla sand Its wheels meet with an ever Increasing re sistance, which Boon becomes so great that they aro obliged to stop. Tho stop pago, however, la bo gradual that thero is no rough shock. Tho greater the swiftness of the train and tho heavier tho load tho moro Immediate Is tho stoppage. No damago then is possible either as regards tho train or tho pas sengora. An experiment which was recently tried with a freight train showed cleirly tho usefulness of this very practical and eimplo plan. Ituok to Your Shoe.
