To shake you by the hand. "
"Good morning Mr. Lobster , "
'rhe little naId replied.
But both her little hafllS she held
Quite closely to her side.
The lobster then held out his claw ,

i've heard that lobsters bite. "
Fh ( Lost Pur.4e.
Sadie flfld May lived in a very pleasant -
ant home in the country. All ( lay long
they WOUI(1 keep house with their dolls ,
and when night came they would tuck
thorn under the long reI curtains Which
hung over one of the large windows.
Oile warm 'lay , when it was too hot to
play out in the sun , they went and sat on
the cool , shady porch. and begged
gflp who haa just wakened 'from
an afternoon nap. to tell them a story.
So grandpa sai'l that if they would bC
quiet lie would tell them a short , true
story about liimself.
Sadie anl May promised to be very
still. So grandpa began :
"Once when I was a very litfl boy 1
had to take a long , lonely walk through
the snow for some tea for my mother.
The store was four miles away. As I
had tola my mother I would go , I ran
and got my things and called my dog
Bruno , for : i never went anywhere without -
out him. : i : gdt to the store safely and
bought my tea , and as I baa two dollars
and some change I put it In a small
purse vh1ch I had in my pocket. I can
remember howhardIt was walking and
how bitterly cold it was. I hurried as
fast as I could , because I was afraid I
would be late . for supper. It WaS quite
dark when .1 ran upon the porch and
into the warm kitchen. How good the
muffins smelt that had just come out of
the oven ! I can remember them yet. "
"And did Bruno get home , too ? "
asked May.
"Oh , " sail grandpa , "that Is just what
I am going to tell you. I knew he was
not far behind , so I did not wait for
bin-i , but went in and gave the tea to
mother , then put my hand in my pocket
to give her the change. To my surprise
I found It was gone. "
"Oh , grandpa ! " exclaimed Sadie and
May.
"Yes , " siid grandpa , "it was gone-
lost , I thought-and it was so dark and
stormy my mother said It. was no use
to look for It. I was too much troubled
to care for my supper , so I sat down by
the fire feeling very sad. Soon I heard a
scratching at the door , and when I
opened it you cannot think how anton-
inhed I was to have Bruno bound in and
drop something at my feet. Now , what
(10 YOU think It Wfls ? "
"The money , " said the children.
"Yes , " said grandpa. "The lost purse
was safe and sound. How happy I was
and how I did hug Bruno ! Just think !
lie had been behind rue and had Picked
the purse up and brought It home. "
"What a dear , good dog ! " said May.
"I like the story very much because it
was true.-Nev York World.
Hunting Pytlions in Nalal.
The colony of Natal. South Africa ,
abounds in boa-constrictors and py-
thons. While they do not attack men ,
they are especially destructive of cattle ,
sheep and oxen , and for this reason
partIes are formed by hunters and natives -
tives to burn the bush and forest in or-
iler to exterminate the pests. Some of
the soldiers at Pietermaritzburg were
recently informed by a party of neighboring -
boring Zulus of the whereabouts of a
huge python that had been destroying
their oxen. The soldiers , with 200 natives -
tives , started oft to capture the snake ,
and , having located it , the forest was
fired for a mile roundabout , an enormous -
ous pit having been previously ( lug lfl
toward the center of the inclosed space.
' What 'with the burning brush and the
shouts of the KalTirn , they soon drove
the reptile toward the pit , where , cbs-
ing in upon him , they forced him into
ii. The python proved to be of enorm-
Gu' size , being thirty-two feet long nl
forty-mu inches in circumference. It
appcared to be quite stupid or dazed ,
having just eaten a young ox that bad
been ledinto the inelosure. An enormous -
ous cage , with Iron bars half way down
the rront , having been constructed , the
. snake was got out of the pit and taken
'
to Maritzburg in the cage. Here it in
kept on exhibition at the barracks , and
-it is fed twice a week two Kaffir goats
at each meal. It will not eat anything
that has been already killed for it , pre-
( erring to kill its food itself. The goats
: nre thrust through a small door at the
.cnd of the cage alive. when. fixing its
great eyes upon them , the sna-ke suddenly -
denly lunges forward and crushes theta

buildings. This yard is usually not very
large and the only games the scholars
play are marbles , tops and leap-frog or
tag. There Is no football or baseball or
tennis , and even the childish games they
do Indulge In are under the supervision
of a tutor. On Thursdays'the boys are
taken out for a promenade in ca ; e of
a tutor , and they are marched around
the streets , two I ) ) ' two , for an hour or
more. Those boys whose parents live In
Paris and those who have friends in the
city are allowed once in two weeks to
visit their friends and relth'es on Sun-
day. Of course , says Harper's Young
People , almost every boy can i'ake up
some sort of a "relative , " for the sake
of getting out of the "box" occasionally -
ally , and those vIth Imaginary relatives
spend their time on the boulevards , eatIng -
Ing cakes and seeing the sights. This
they probably would not do If they enjoyed -
joyed the liberty accorded to American
boys , instead of lelng confined for
weeks in a walled yard. The method of
punishment is to make a scholar write
several thousand lines an a task , or to
deprive him Of his Thursday walk , or to
deprive him of one or more of his Sundays -
days out. The working hours are somewhat - -
what longer than in America , because
certain fixed houses arc set aside for
preparation and study. For instance ,
there is a recitation at S o'clock In the
morning , then a study hour , and then
fifteen minutes' recess , followed by another -
other study hour. All studying is ( lone
lii the classrooms under the supervision
of a tutor , and no talking is allowed. As
a result of this enforced silence the boys
become adepts in a sort of deaf-and-
dumb ) sign-lazlguag. and carry on
! c1 gthy conversations , which they
would nevei' think of wasting time On
if they might say vhat they bad to say
out loud. At 4 o'clock every afternoon
the ioyn line up in the playground and
servants pass along in front of them
with baskets of bread and butter , each
boy helping himself to a bice as his
turn comes.

A Very Peculiar .Kite.
A balloon maker 'who uses kites in
experimenting has made a kit which ,
upon being tossed into the air , will scud
away exactly like a bird. Itwlll fall if a
string is attached to it. Anybody can
make this kite if he will bear in mind
the appearance of .a bird in the air. It
consists of a wing-like main .part and a
paddle-like tail. It may beef any size.
The wings should be like two right-an-
gled triangles , connected at the base ,
only the paper must be curved outward
beyond the hypotenuse , much the same
as a bird's wing is curved. About half
the length of one wing from this main
portion , a light , flexible piece of wood
should hold the tall-a paper paddle of
the area of one cl the wings. Make
each wing with a little convexity from
the under side , and don'tattempt to fly
it with a string. Tie a string to the leg
of a frightened bird ; it vilI fly to the
end of it , flutter a noment and fall to
the ground. This kite will.do the same.
A bird cannot fly backward ; neither
cait this type of kite. It will.go with the
wind , and for the same reason that a
bird goes forward. The tendency of the
breeze , which vill first stdke the tail ,
will be to throw the kite.down , but' as
the tail goes down it elevates the wing
portion. The instant the wings begin to
rise to a perpendicular position to the
wind current , it presents a broader surface -
face to the breeze , and is , of course ,
pushed onward. By this undulatory ,
snake-like wavering , it stads onward
and upwaid. This movement may be
seen in any fluttering flag on .a breezy
day. indeed. this discovery was made
by observing the undula.tory motion of
a flag on a mast.

1s THE CROW FLIES'
VOYAGE TO THE POLE IN A
BALLOON.
A. Swedish Engineer Says It Will Take
Just Six Days-Distance from Spitz-
bergen Is 2,200 Miles-Ills Airship I'
of New Design.
The Swedish engineer and aeronau
Andre , who , on a balloon trip from
Gothenburg to Gothland , succeeded in
steering his balloon twenty-seven tie-
grees out of the direction of the wind ,
read a paper before the Academy of
Sciences in Stockholm the other day , in
which he explained how he thinks he
will be able to reach the pole in a bat-
loon. He will make the attempt from
Spitzbergen , and , in order that it shall
succeedmakes the following conditions :
1. The balloon must have a liftilig
power that will enable it to carry three
passengers , instruments needed for observations -
servations , provisions for four months ,
and ballast , a total weight of about
7,000 pounds. 2. It must be made so airtight -
tight that it can be sustained in the air
for thirty clays and nights. 3. It must
be inflated in some place in the arctic
regions. 4 , It must be constructed according -
cording to Mr. Andre's plan , so that it
can be managed. The first , second and
third conditions , Andre says , can be
met without difficulty. To attain the
requisite lifting power is the problem
long since solved , and by experiments
made some time ago by Poisenilles an(1
Graham with a balloon twenty-eight
feet in diameter. It was shown that
they had succeeded in making it so airtight -
tight that at the end of one month it
had lost only sixteen pounds of its lift-
lug lower. The inflation of the balloon
in tije arctic regions presents no difficulty -
culty , hydrogen gas now birig delivered
compressed in iron cylinders. Mr. An-
tire says that 1,700 or 1SOO cylinders will
suffice for the inflatLon of his balloon.
It is the last condition which creates
doubts as to whether the journey can
be made. Mr. Andre , however , is confident -
dent that by adopting the following
plan , which he has already tried , he will
reach his aim. Ills balloon will have
a system of sails and many drag lines ,
which will hang down from the balloon
and drag along the surface of the
water , the land and the ice while the
balloon is afloat. These lines will , as
Mr. Andre learned on the trip mentioned -
tioned , check the speed of the balloon ,
preventing it from moving along with
the full speed of the wind , and under
these conditions the sails can be used
as to deflect the balloon from the course
of the wind. The drag lines will be
made of the fibres of the husks of the
cocoanut , eo that they will float on the
rat Besides , the balloon will have
several heavy ropes hanging down to
serve partly as ballast , partly as an
automatic saving apparatus , in case
the balloon for some reason or other
should unexpectedly and rapidly tie-
scend. In that case , as soon as the
lower end of the ballast lines touch the
grouna the balloon wili be relieved from
lifting a corresponding weight , and consequently -
sequently the rapidity of the descent
will be checked. Mr. Andre's balloon ,
which will be made of the finest silk ,
double sown , anti prepared with the
greatest of care , will be so balanced
that an ascent of about 800 feet can be
attained. How long it wfil take to
reach the pole depends upon the speed
of the wind. With a speed like that
which carried Mr. Andre's balloon from
Gothenburg to Gothiand on Nov. 29
last year he will be able , lie says , to
reach the pole in ten hours. At an
average speed of seventeen miles an
hour the trip from Spitzbergen to the
pole will require forty-three hours. At
all events , a trip from Spitzbergen direct -
rect across the pole to the Bering stra.t
is calculated to require no more than six
days and nights , one-fifth of the time
the polar balloon is supposed to be
capable of remaining sustained in the
air. A great advantage to which Mr.
Andre calls attention to the fact that
during the journey , which will be undertaken -
taken in the spring , the sun will all
the time be above the horizon , so that
he can travel ahead at night without
Stopping. Besides , no great change of
atmosphere prevails in the regions to
be traversed , anti. moreover the ground
Is everywhere free from vegetation , so
that nothing will prevent the drag lines ,
on which Mr. Andre chiefly depends as
regards the management of the balloon ,
from running smoothly along. To the
objection made that a heavy snowfall
may occur and prove too heavy a load
for the balloon to carry , Mr. Andre
replies that the snow will be blown
away as soon as it settles on the balloon -
loon , as its speed will not be the same
as that of the wind. After having read
h.is paper before the academy ri Stock-
hohn , Mr. Andre repeated it before the
Anthropological society , where it was
received with much enthusiasm. It is
estimated that the trip will cost about
$35,000 , and it looks as if Mr. Andre
would have no difficulty in raising the
amount.
GONE TO HIS REWARD.
Or P erhaps to His Ptini'diment-JIaiitl
Organ Inventor Dead.
Harry F. Taylor , who idiled himslf
at New York the other day , is undoubtedly -
edly responsible for more noise than any
other person who ever lived. His pio-
fession was noise. He wallowed in it ,
and it is said that the hideous sounds
he caused to be awaked finally drove
him to his death. His chief distinction
was for volumes of noise. All the cannon -
non tired in the Franco-Prnsian war ,
If concentrated in one vast sound , 'wotild
be a breathing zephyr compared .to the
infernal racket that Henry F. Taylor
hashurled against the universal tympa-
iium. : Even the pig-tailed Chinese .ith
all his firecrackers , has no such sin -to
answer for , and the author of om-
rades" Is a public benefactor in comparl-
son. So horrible was the din raised by
Taylor That he is suspected of iaving
become thaunted by dreadful sounds ,
and in a fit of remorse at the ears he
has cracked has jumped from a 1fth-
story window. Taylor made the first
hand-organ. and so hideous was t.e
nightmare of discord that he made iOI-
000 more and cast them loose on a ( IC-
fenseless country. The saddcst thing
to contemplate in his taking-off is that
hand-organs are immortal.
Business Went On.
A bow of crape was tied to a saloon
door knob on Wabash avenue , says Chicago -

and on the door was a card on which
was printed : "Please go the Side n -

Acrmctcr agent for them. It is always better to go to an Acrmctor jj agent for any- thing you may want which he handles.
As a rule he is a first-class , live , reliable , wide-awake fellow ; that is the reason he is an Aermotor agent. It is doubtful it.
