The night before , grandpa had promised him that on this same morning he should join the farmer's club , "The Knockabouts. ' ' Before going to bed Willie carefully counted his pennies. " 'Cause , " said he , " 'twill cost something to join ! " "Not very much , I guess , " said mamma , who was fully acquainted with grandpa and his funny club. For hadn't she been a member herself when she was a little girl ? "Anyhow , " continued Willie , "I have the dollar papa gave me , haven't I ? " But mamma only laughed in reply. "Can't initiate you till the dew gets off the grass ! " exclaimed grandpa at the breakfast table. This made the club seem to Willie more mysterious than ever. "You must put on your thick shoes , and I don't think a white shirt is just the thing for members of the club to wear , " advised grandpa , with a merry twinkle in his eyes. About 10 o'clock Willie was ready , and where do you suppose grandpa took him ? Why , out in the orchard , back of the barn , where there was as many as a hundred hay-tumbles. Already three hired men were at work , throwing the hay about in every direction. "There are the charter members of the 'Knockabout Club/ " laughed grandpa , Willie took the little fork grandpa handed him , and was soon a full- fledged membar of the funny club. "I've got a good name foe my club , haven't I ? " asked grandpa , as Willie began knocking the hay about for the eun to dry. "A jolly one , " replied Willie. Every morning , while he remained at the farm , he was the first member of the club on duty. "It's the best fun ! " he exclaimed. "I wish , grandpa , I could be a knock- abouter the year round ! " A. P. Cald well in Youth's Companion. Learned , bat Eccentric. Professor Lincoln of Brown Univer sity , whose death occurred a few years ago , used to tell amusing anecdotes of Neander , the great professor and his torian of the Christian church of the Berlin University , under whom he studied for some time. Neander was accustomed when lec turing to stand behind a curious , high desk , with an open framework , and with holes and pegs for letting it up and down. His costume was a very leng coat , coming down to the tops of his great jack-boots , and with a collar which reached almost as high as his head as he bent over his desk , and with arms extended forward , twirled in his fingers a quill pen. If this quill dropped , there v-as a hiatus in the lec ture until some one would pick it up and place it in his hands , and then the wonderful flow of learned discourse would prcceed. It is said that when Neander went to Berlin he happened , in going from his home to the university for the first time , to he with a friend , who. for th ? sake of some errand , took a most cir cuitous route ; Neander pursupd this rtundribou : course for years , and only ! > y accident discovered that there was r. rhorl r way.

The written civil-service examina tions for policemen in New York have bf en sneered at as a part of a visionary = cheme. The ignorance displayed by tome of the unsuccessful applicants for v&mmmmmmmmmmmmmmu mmmmmmmmmmmmmm appointment might have had free course In an official position , however , and to the public lose , had no such test been used. Extraots from what theBO applicants for police service wrote about Abraham Lincoln include some extraordinary statements. One wrote : "He has bin a Presented of New York City. " Another declared that in 18C5 Lincoln was "nomanlted in place of Buckhanan whoe's term of office ex- pire'i in that year. " "Mr. Lhicom , " according to another applicant , had many engagements in war , and was bound to be victorious , especially at the battle of Gettysburg , when he swept all before him. " Of Lincoln's tragic death it was vari ously said that he was killed "at Chicago cage 1804 , " also that he"was assisatod in 1877 at foards Theater Boston ; " shot in "Booth's theater in Philadelphia ; " "died at his home in Long Branch. " The assassin Is spoken of as "Garfield , " "Geteay , " and "Dccota. " One candidate said Lincoln "let the Dorkey go fred ; " another that he "fred all the negros in the world ; " In gen eral , the applicants seem to have agreed , as one wrote , that "we have seertinly had very fiew like unto Lin coln. " Sneezing. When traveling in the south of Ire land , some years ago , I was not a lit tle surprised to hear every one in a loom shout "God bless you ! " when any person sneezed , and the "God bless you" was repeated for every sneeze. I have since learned that this salutation has an origin going back to the sixth century , when the black plague fell upon Rome. Its victims showed the first symptoms by sneezing. When the African king of Menomopata sneezes all thrse near his person send up a great shout , all within hearing take it up , so that the sneeze may be said to go echoing through the kingdom One would think the subjects would soon get hoarse if their sovereign chanced to have an old-fashioned New England hay fever. When the king of Senaar sneezes his courtiers turn their backs on him and give a loud slap on their right thigh. There is a great deal of character in the manner of sneezing , and though even George Washington could not he dignified when he felt a sneeze coming on , and was in doubts whether it would come to a head or not , it must be confessed that a good sneeze is more pleasurable than other- wise. Dow lie Cornered Him. A gentleman was riding on the out side of a coach in the west of England , when the driver said to him : "I've had a coin guv' to me today 200 years old. Did you ever see a coin 200 years old ? " "Oh , yes ; I have one myself 2,000 years old " "Ah ! " said the driver , "have ye ? " and spoke no more during the rest of the journey. When the coach arrived at its desti nation the driver turned to the other with an intensely self-satisfied air , and said : "I told you as we druv' along that I had a coin 200 years old. " "Yes. " "And you said to me as you had one 2 .000 years old. " "Yes , so I have. " "That's not true. " "What do you mean by that ? " ' "What do I mean ? Why , it's only 1S97 now ! " Tit Bits. Miss Pepina , Equestrienne. Novel readers may remember that in cne of Charles Lever's rollicking stor ies the hero , a dashing Irish dragoon , is made to leap his horse over a small cart in a Portuguese street. At a cir cus in Berlin recently Miss Pepina , a young Italian girl , performed the as tonishing feat of jumping her favorite mare across an open victoria in which four men were seated. This young wo man was born in Trieste , Austria , of wealthy parents , and from childhood showed great liking for horseback ex ercise. In her early teens she could ride much better than any woman in town , even the men finding difficulty in keeping up with her. After much urg ing , her parents finally allowed her to appear in the Circus Vidoli at Trieste , where her daring performance soon made her such a name that today she commands a higher salary than any other professional equestrienne in Eirrope. Her chief fet. previous to the one described above , was to jump her mare over four fair-sired ponies stand ing side by side. I > irly Training.

MIRACULOUS MUlT" FOUND AT THE INDIANA MIN" | ERAL SPRINGS , IND. Cures Rheumatism , Kidney , Bladder , Illooil , Skin and Ncrvoui Dlieaseg UIg Hotel Has Ileen Krected und People Are Journeying There from All Over the . Country to Bathe In the Mud. A deposit of most remarkable mud discovered in Indiana , has of recent years been attracting wide-spread at tention. It is located at the Indiana Mineral Springs , Warren county , and has been formed by the action of the water from the famous Magno-LIthia springs. Through countless ages the foliage of magnificent oaks on the hill side has annually fallen into a basin , and has been reduced by nature into a pure black earth unmixed with roots , stones or sand. The water from the big spring for thousands of years has been soaking this deposit and saturat ing it with mineral salts , until now there is a layer of medicated mud abcut two acres in extent and from ten to twenty feet in thickness. The strange medicinal value of this peculiar , black , porous substance was accidentally discovered by an old sol dier , Sam Stor. ) , who had brought rheumatism home from the war and suffered with it for years. He was at tempting to dig a drainage ditch through the mud deposit , and after in dulging in this useless experiment for a week or more , gave up the idea , bn : meanwhile had been cured of his rheu- nniiiKm. The fame of the mud began to spread and afflicted congregated at the Springs from everywhere. The method of us ing the mud was at first very primi tive , the patient merely sitting down in the deposit where nature had laid it. But since then improvements have been made , a beautiful hotel erected , and the mud bath developed into a luxurious experience. The accompany ing cut shows how it's done. After all , Nature is the greatest of all chemists , and seems here to have prepared in a gigantic receptacle an enormous mass of medicine for poultic ing sore humanity. When all else had failed , Nature's treatment , the Magno- Mud cure , as it is now called , has in hundreds of cases brought back health and happiness. It WrtL > itt > rint Case.
