RAREY, As everyone has observed, there Is something altogether different about Saturday afternoon and any other time. It Is something peculiar. Some element goes into it that gives It an air all Its own. What accounts for It? It Is a question not easily answered. For one thing there is the rush of things. Still 1 there have been other afternoons as busy, and yet they were widely different Again It Is the last afternoon of the week. Work seems less Irksome then, for rest can already be felt. You knew just as clearly in the morning that there must be an end to It, but there Is a wide difference be tween. knowing and feeling. This le felt. It Is probably this that stamps Saturday afternoon with Its individ ualism. It is the strange blending of work and play. It is really all work: but for the time It is forgotten. Who cannot go through the last hour’s work with a light heart? And the few Who cannot, miss the joy, the all-per vading quiet, that come with the hours of rest. PEACHTREE STATUES PAINTED YELLOW.

It is necessary to finish the full term so as to receive promotions without ex aminations next fall. Meaning of B’Nal B’Rlth. From the Montgomery Advertiser. “The question has been asked so of ten,” said a Jewish .citizen of Mont gomery, "that I will endeavor to brief ly explain It. The term Is Hebrew and translated literally Into English means Sons of the Covenant. The first word, Ben,’ meaning son. ‘B’Nal,’ therefore, means ‘Son of B’rith’ means the con- venant. “Just how this name came to be adopted by the ordet 1 bearing it I do not know, But, It Is a fact, that the Children of Israel have always been regarded as the sons of the convenant. Convenant Is construed to mean a compact between the Jews and God. There were three such convenants. The first came to Noah, the second to Abraham and the third when the Ten Commandments were delivered to Moses.” As to the Firemen's Fund Insurance Co. To the Public: Owing to the rumor that was cur rent on the streets yesterday after noon, we feel that the policyholders of the. "Firemen’s Fund Insurance Co.” would be interested In the following facts: The rumor was started from a wire received In the cotton exchange, which was afterwards corrected. Mr. Edgar S. Wllfon, state agent for the Fireman’s Fund Insurance Co., wires us as follows: "All losses In San Francisco confla gration will be paid In full and busi ness continued uninterruptedly. At. a meeting of the ■ stockholders on the 26th Inst, the capital stock was raised three million dollars, giving this com pany four million dollars capital." On January 1 their total assets were $7,232,552, and the additional $3,000,000 now gives them over ten millions with which, to pay the losses. The entire amount covered by them in the city and adjacent territory was something over seven millions, which will leave them three millions on which to con- tn(ue‘ business., We are keeping a close watch on all Insurance matters and feel more than confident that all of our companies are strong and will weather this storm- without becoming Insolvent, but should any of them fall, we shall protect our policyholders in companies that are beyond touch of any one calamity.

Bean of Fort Sheridan. Once a man who had the reputation of never having been beaten for the position of orderly came from another regiment. Private Haarscher and the newcomer, as luck would have it, were detailed for guard the, same day. The whole garrison turned out to see which one the adjutant would pick for the coveted place. To all outward signs there was uo difference in the neatness end soldierly appearance of the two men. The officer spent about twenty mlb- utes examining the rifles, belts, car tridge boxes and brasses of the two soldiers. There was absolutely nothing to choose between them In point of neatness of appearance. Finally, as a last resort, the adjutant unbuttoned the blouse of the new claimant for or derly honors. He found a somewhat faded but absolutely clean undershirt. The officer passed to Haarseber and nndld three bnttons of bis blouse. Haarscher had on a brand new suit of silk underwear that must have cost him a month's pay It was the other man on that day who walked past post In the hot sun, while Haarscher did ’’lolling duty” In the shade Jn front of the commandant's quarters.

A camper should know for himself how to outfit, how to select and make a camp, how to wield an nx and make proper fires, how to cook, wash, mend; how to travel without los ing his course or wbut to do when he has lost It: bow to trail, hunt, shoot, fish, dress game, manage boat or ca noe and how to extemporize such make shifts as may be needed In wilderness faring.

The origin of the so called-San Jose scale lfc not certainly known; but It Is fenSonably sute that it wde brought from China about 1870 on some plants Imported by Jiffies Lick ahd placed on hlk.property in the Santa Clara valley. By 1880 It had come to be recognized as a serious pest and In that year was found near San Jose and described by Professor Comstock, who named It Aspldlofus pcrnlelosus.”' That name being too hard for most of us, the pest has become known the world' over as 1he San Jose scale from the place where It was first found by Professor Comstock, very much to the disgust of the people of that city and vicinity, who do not suffer from It In any appre ciable degree.—Sail Francisco Chroni cle. Everyday Miracle.- Bullfinches fed on hemp seed turn quite black,” said a naturalist. “Horses kept In coal mines for several years become covered with soft, thick fur like a mole. The mastiff of Tibet, who In the Tibetan highlands has a heavy eout of wool, loses his coat completely when he Is brought down to the plains. The ermine In bis snow Infested home turns white In the winter, but If he Is taken for the winter to a warm climate he does not turn white at all. Quite amazing altogether are the changes that, with .food and environment we can effect on all living, creatures, even on man.”—Philadelphia Bulletin. Vflll.gr of Cripple. The strangest village In the world Is undoubtedly the little bnnrlet of Jatte, near Culoz. In France, not far from the Italian frontier, where dwell about 200 deformed men, women and children, who in Paris go by the name of “Culs- de-Jntte.” They are deprived of the use of tbelr legs and thighs and push themselves along In primitive wooden carts with wooden wheels, which they propel by means of a flatiron shaped block of wood in either hand.
