Discord In the Choir.
Drilling a volunteer choir is the must
exasperating work ever undertaken by _
a human being. In the first place it is i ;
morally certain that at least half a dozen
members think they know more than
the leader, and two or three are al
ways better informed than the man who
wrote the music, so they offer, with
cheerful alacrity, the most idiotic sug
gestions as to the manner in which it
should 1** performed, and feel much ag
grieved if their ideas are not acted on. .......

be singing or listening to the leader’s di
rection, or are quarreling and "put each
other out."
They are not responsible for all the
trouble, hut when they do quarrel they
generally manage to enlist the men in
the service of both sides, and the first
thii.g the leader knows one half his
choir has quit and the other half is about
to do so because they are not numerous
enough to make a creditable chorus. A
choir leader says: "I have gone into
church on .Sunday morning and found
six or eight members sitting in the con
gregation. instead of in their places,
and the rest glaring at them from the
organ stand. It is fun for them and for
the people, but it’s death to the leader."

Where is kept the most exten-
Conurci* Gaiters and Drowning.
Speaking of congress gaiters and
drowning recalls a fashionable middle
aged physician who thoroughly believes
in this fatality. lie gave it away in this
wise: While consulting a man iu deli-
cato health about his care for himself in
the winter time the doctor said: "What
kind of shoes have you got on?" They
proved to bo the fatal congress gaiters,
and the doctor objected. "Did you ever
seo an account of a drowned man found
in the bay that didn’t say he had on con
gress gaiters? You laugh and say that
doesn’t make any difference, and there
is no connection of cause and effect.
“How do you know there isn’t? You
can’t trace it, but I’m not certain that i
congress gaiters do not tend to such j
moral and physical degeneracy that a j
man is liable to fall off a ferry lx>at, or i
in a fit of despondency to jump into the!
river. At any rate 1 don’t wear them.
I told a woman the same thing once and j
slio laughed. 1 went on, and when ! |
leached home found a letter from her.
saying she had picked up a paper after 1 i
went away, and the first thing found j
several confirmations of what I said, and j
slio wanted to admit that she was con
vinced.”—New York Tribune.

A Certain Cure for Dyspepsia.
There la perhaps no disease so prevalent as
Dyspepsia and indigestion, and ono too, that up
to the present time naa baffled the skill of the
most eminent physicians. Two-thirds of the
chronic diseases have their origin in Dyspepsia.
The symptoms are less of appetite, loss of flesh,
a feeling of fulness or weight in the stomach,
occasionally nausea and vomiting,acidity, flatu
lence, dull pain In the head, with a sensation of
heaviness or giddiness, Irregularity of lmwels,
low spirits, sleeplessness, sallow skin, derange
ment of kidneys, and not unf~muently palpfta-
Mon of the heart. If you are suffering with any
of these symptoms Da. Holt’s Dvspkktic Llixib
will cure you. Prepared only by

clouds. The highest clouds, cirrus and
cirro-stratus, rise on an average to a
height of nearly 510,000 feet. The mid
dle clouds keep at from 10,000 feet tc
28,000 feet in height, while the lower
clouds reach to between 8.0C0 feet and
7,000 feet. Tho cumulus clouds float
with their lower surface at a height of
from 4.000 to 5,000 fee$ while their
summits rise to 10,000 feet-. The tops of
the Alps are often hidden by clouds of
the third class, but the bottoms of th»*
clouds of the second class, and esjie
chilly of tho thunderclouds, often enfold
them.
Tho “ertical dimension of a cloud ob
served by Professor Moller on the Notle-
berg was over 1,200 feet He stepped
out of it at a height of about 51.700 feet,
and high above tho mountain floated
clouds of the middle class, while veils of
mist lay in tho ravines and clefts. The
upper clouds were growing thicker,
while the lower ones were dissolving,
and soon it began to rain and snow.—
Public Opinion.
A Smart Detective.
Sergeant Moser on one occasion saw a
waiter in a cafe at Soho receive and
place in his pocket a letter which the de
tective believed to be from a criminal a
knowledge of whose whereabouts he was
anxious to obtain. He therefore drop
ped his ring on the floor and asked the
man to look for it. Alphonse, expecting
a reward, immediately went on his
hands and knees, and while thus en
gaged Sergeant Moser abstract' d the let
ter from his pocket and thus obtained
♦he means of bringing a forger to jus
tice. Who can doubt that this was a
perfectly justifiable act? But if. instead,
Sergeant Moser had suborned another
person to steal for reward, and without
telling him the object in view, he would
most assuredly have acted very wrongly
—Spectator.
.The First Silk Mill in England.
A j*>rtion of the old mill built by John
Lombe at Derby in 1718—the first silk
mill ever erected in England—has col
lapsed, and it is expected that the whole
building will have to come down. Lombe
worked as a silk weaver in Italy, and at
the risk of his life made drawings of the
machinery. He then returned to Eng-
lund, bringing some Italian workmen,
and built the factory on an island in the
Derwent, having first patented the ma
chinery. He died soon afterward, and it
is said lie won poisoned by a female
emissary of the Italian manufacturers.
The mill was worked for many years,
but has long been in disuse. It was last
utilized as a steam laundry, and was
condemned some years silicons beingun
safe.— Galignani Messenger.

Don’t Show Your Collar Itu ton.
It ia desirable tluit a cravat or four-in-
hand should bo held firmly up against
the tabs of a collar. The collar button
never should l>o seen. With a cravat
this may be accomplished by drawing
the first knot firm. With a four-in-hand
it may be accomplished by tying a
firm simple knot before making the four-
in-hand movement.—Clothier and Fur
nisher.
Looks Reasonable.
A Cincinnati policeman who clubbed
a citizen without apparent good reason
explains to a reporter that the cost of
running the department was increased
so rapidly that be conscientiously felt
obliged to exhibit an increase of energy.
The citizen happened to be nearest bis
“energy.”—Detroit Free Press.
