He was about to return East In a fow weeks, and quite by acoideut had come to the little station at Ten Spot, crossing thither In a stage coach from a mining settlement located In the mountains that day. Darrel briefly related tho oplsodv of the wounded mnssenger. and modestly referred to his adventure at the trestle. The deep bluo eyes of Inez.

When, however, thev aro alarmed, they rapidly assume tho vertical po sition, and dart off with great speed. The dnrk upper surfase serves to pro tect them from becoming too visible to enemies above.

Frederick the Great was in the habit of having his own way, and was much annoyed by a mill which ob structed the view from the windows of his summer palace of Hans Houci. Ho he sent a message to the miller, asking him what he would accept in exchange for hi* building. The an swer oatue back straightway: "The miller iloeB not wish to sell.” His majesty was thunderstruck, but waa inclined to conciliate. “Offer him any price,” he said to hia ambassador. Again came the answer: "The miller will nut sell at any price. ” Then, as in the old fairy tales, "the king waxed worth," and gave orders that the mill should be torn down over the owner's head. The miller made no resistance, but those who knew him were well aware that he would not submit to an in justice even from a king. Alter the rubbish was cleared away, lie folded hia arms and quietly said: “The king may hove done this, but he will find that there are laws even in Prussin. ” His next action wns to institute legal proceedings, which resulted is an order from the courts to the effect that the king should not only rebuild the mill, but pay a good sum of money as compensation for the inconvenience and loss of time. His majesty was much vexed at the turn affairs had taken; but he made thu beat of tliinga, saying to his courtiers: "I am glad to know thnt my laws are just and my judges honest.” After forty years tho descendant of tho miller, who possessed the mill, found himself in grave financial dif ficulties, and sent word to the king thnt, although his ancestor would not pnrt with his property, ho wns forced to do so. He further said the king was welcome to the mill ut a fair price. Thereupon the king wrote: "My dear neighbor, I cannot nllow you to sell the mill. It must always be in your possession ns long a" one member of the family exists; for it belongs to the history of Prussia. I regret, however, to henr that you are in such straitoued circumstances; and therefore send you herewith $11,000, in the hope that it may be of service in restoring your fortunes. Consider tne "Your affectionate neighbor, Frederick William.” A GENEROUS HORSE. Tho horse is generally rated as ono of tho most intelligent of uuimnls, und a pretty incident that wns witnessed by a number of persons recently show, that generosity also enters into his character. Two flue-looking horses attached to single buggies were hitched at the curb opposite the Chestnut Street entrance to the Merchants’ Exchanges in Philadelphia. They were hitched several feet apart, but the hitching straps allowed them sufficient liberty of movement to get their heads to gether if they so desired. The owner of ouo of them had tuken the oppor tunity of a prolonged stop to give the horse a feed of oats, which was placed on the edge of the sidewalk in a bug. This horse was contentedly munch ing hiB oats when his attention was attracted by the actions of the other horse. The other horse wns evidently very hungry. He eyed the plentiful supply of onts wistfully and neighed in an insinuating manner. The horse with the feed pricked up his ears po litely and replied with n neigh, which must have been, in horso language, watch. help himself. Evidently he accepted it as such, for he moved along in the direction of the bag as far as hie bitching strap would permit. But the strap wob not long enough and his hungry month fell about a yard short of the bag. The other horse noticed and seemed to appreciate this difflonlty. Fortn- natoly there wns some leeway to his strap. So he moved slowly along the onrb, pushing tbo bag with his nose, until the other horse was able to reach it Then, after a friendly nose- rub salutation, the two horses con tentedly finished the onts together. Canada Seen In Mirage. One of the moat pronounced and pleasing mirages that wsb ever seen from Rochester was noticeable on a re cent afternoon, and, through the pe culiar powerB of the strange freak of nature, Canada’s shore could be plainly seen with the naked eye, os could also what appeared to be woods on the shore of the northern boundary of old Ontario. Persons who had occasion to look to ward the north yesterday late In the afternoon know that nltbough the rain continued to make the Inhabitants of Rochester miserable, In the north It was clear nnd the pink sky showed. Between the pink nr. the American shores of bake Ontario could distinctly be seen the opposite shore of the great body of water. The lake la about sixty miles wide directly opposite Rochester, so that those who saw the mirage look ed through about sixty-seven miles of space and saw land. With the aid of a glass trees on the opposite sldo could he seen to better advantage. The long strip of lead- colored shore nnd the water contrasted well with the pink Bky beyond, the whole forming a pretty picture. No boats were to ho seen on the lake, however, bake Ontario seemed to bo little wider than the Genesee above the city, and It was difficult for some to believe that they really saw Canada. Those who keep track of tho strange things called mirageB say that every year about this time one can be seen. They come just as the storms are dis appearing. The one that was visible yesterday may be seen to better advan tage this morning. Three Mile Limit. In n Bheet published during the Pen ang Centenary celebration (188(1), an old Inhabitant Btates thnt Captain bight fixed upon the inland boundary of Province Wellesley (opposite Pen ang) by the rango of a cannon, and thnt It was further put back another shot from the previous boundary. As far as can be made out from the re cords, however, Captain bight never acquired any land on the mainland, but Sir George belth, Bart., the bleutenant Governor, did in 1800. It Is worthy of note in this connec tion that a possession common to all civilized countries which have a sea board was also originally determined as to Its extent by the range of a can non. This Is the so-called “Three- mile blmlt” from low water mark out to sea. “Territorial waters” were considered to be those over which the country In question could exercise ef ficient control, and at the end of the seventeenth century, when the rule wns laid down, three marine miles was taken as the utmost range of the heavi est cannon in use. Tight Shoes and Pain. Patent leather shoes for walking are almost as distressing to their wearers as the compressing shoes of the orien tals. The first spring days are apt from an unknown cause to produce discom fort after walking over the hard pave ments. and tho advice of a chiropodist to bathe the feet nightly In salt water Is worth repeating. Handfuls of salt should be damped and rubbed over the feet from ankles down, taking care to get up a hearty circulation In heels and toes. This treatment persisted in will do much toward overcoming pain ful tendencies. Brooklyn is to have the world’s big- au invitation to the other fellow to Best sugar refinery. EE! FREE!
