A COSTI.Y TlUN'Ci.
A gentleman was walking in Re-
gent Park, London, and lie met a
mail whose only home was in the
poor house. He had come out to
take the air, audoxeited the gentle-
Iman’s interested attention.
“Well, my friend,” said the gen-
tleman, getting into conversation “it's
a pity that a man like you sliould he
.uated where you are. Now may I
> old are?”
zt k you how you f
The man said lie was 80 years of
age.
“Had you any trade before you be¬
came penniless?”
“Yes, 1 was a carpenter.”
“Did you use intoxicating drink?”
“No J only took my beer.”
“How much did your beer come to
a day?” suppose.’’
“Oh, a sixpence a day, 1
“For how long a time?”
“Well I suppose sixty years.”
The gentleman had taken out his
note-book, and he continued (iguring
with his pencil, while lie went on
talking with the man.
“Now let me tell you,” he said, as
lie finished his calculation, “how
much than beer cost you, my man.
You can go ever the figures yourself.’
And the gentleman demonstrated
that the money at six pence a day ’
for sixty years, expended in beer,
would, if it had been placed at inter¬
est, have yielded him nearly eight
hundrea dollars a year, or an income
of (iifteen dollar per week for sup-
port.
“See now liow much a gallon oi
whiskey cost,” said a judge, after
trying ft ease, “one gallon of whis-
key made two murderers, it made
two wives widows, and eight orphans.
—Richard Newton.
A Judge gave the following decision
when a man was found guilty of kiss-
ii g a woman against her will: “Tlie
court in this ease sympathizes with
tlie defendant, and will therefore dis¬
charge him, without fine, imprison -
merit or reprimand, .because the court
whilst this ease lias been in progress.
has been obliged to hold on to both
i arms of his chair in order to keep
from’kissing 1 .inant hims.lf. ’

Gettiiij^off Cheap.
As the train going down from
Charleston to Savannah ran in on a
siding to wait for the up-train to pass,
we saw a large alligator in a pond on
the other side of the fence. 'This
pond had been made by a fill in tlie i
railroad bed, and was about 200 feet
long by 40 feet broad. On the op¬
posite side, and not twenty feet from
the water, was a negro cabin, and a
negro stood in the open door looking
at the train. A dozen men leaped to
to the ground, pulled their revolvers
and began firing at the reptile. lie
was Iiit by two or three bullets
once, ’ and went down out of sight °
As lie disappeared the negro came
running down to us, hat in hand, and
pointing to a hole made ill the head-
gear by a glancing bullet lie ex-
claimed:
“Now, den, whar is dat white man
who shot dat bullet?”
No one could say, as we had all
been firing, but one of the shooters
finally stepped forward and said:
“See here, Moses, it was an acci¬
dent, and though it was a close shave
you have not been hart.”
“Hut f’ze got a chill, sail!' When
dat bullet went ‘p-i-n-g’ frew my ole
hat, 1 fought I was dun sent fur an’
killed dead; an’ it’s brung de ager
back on me.”
“Well, how much damages do you
claim?” *v
“Lo hits, sail fo hits r.n not a
cent less. I doan’ want to rob no-
body, hut dat bullet might her went
rigiit frew my head.”
YYe raised the half dollar and
handed it over, and as Moses
dropped it into liis pocket and turned
away he continued:
“Doan’feel hard, gem’lcn, but 1
owes a duty to mv fam’lv. Ef dat
' 1
bullet had killed me de ole woman
would her stuck out for two big dol-
lars, eben if it broke de hull crowd.”

The Empire Stale.
There is room in Georgia for the
pessimist.
A recent report made by Cornp-
troller General M right shows that
within the period of eleven years,
embraced between 1870 and 1890,
the assessed value of property in this
state has increased $109,000,000.
There is a wonderful and inspir-
ing story in these figures. Let the
reader scan them again:
$109,000,000.
The story they tell is one of pros¬
perity and progress, intelligent work
and pleasing results, the death of old
fogvism and the birth of new forces .

Georgians are not

south. On the contrary Georgians
are leading their brethren of the

in the liouso of a wealthy Russian lady
| in SJ mpatlij with the lexolu-
j.
The Russian lady had occasion to
visit one of tlio largo prisons for the
purpose of calling on a suspect with
whom she was acquainted. Stepniak
accompanied her in the guise of a serv¬
ant.
Wlille the lady was making her call
Stepniak remuined at the gate of the
prison, where he passed the time cliat-
ting .with the soldiers on guard and
feeing them stories in. the peasant dia-
which ho knew so well how to as-
sune.
.Being very tired, having boon out all
the previous niglit attending a secret
meeting of the revolutionists, Stepniak
seated himself on a bench between two
soldiers, who were just then off duty,
and soon fell asleep.
When the lady came out of the prison
she beheld her servant, who was in
reality the most noted revolutionist in
Russia, and for whom the police

Two Big; Animals.
At the beginning of this century the
price of hippopotamus ivory was $6.25
per pound. Since the American inven¬
tion of porcelain enamel for artificial
teeth it is no longer sought for, and tlie
value of til6 animal depends at present
'on.tlie hide and the fat. The latter re¬
sembles lard, and the former is used for
whips. A hippopotamus differs from
most aquatic animals in this particular,
tin t, instead of diving head first, it
sinks backward and disappears by
throwing tlie nose upward. There is
also a marked difference between this
beast and the crocodile as regards the
fWivs r of rtiundniptf uuiac.v'afcr.
Tiie former, notwithstanding its enor-
mous lungs, must come up to breathe
in ten minutes at the longest, whereas
thu crocodile can stay beneath the sur-
face for almost any length of time.
The crocodile lias the power of living
through the hot season in a torpid state,
buried in tlie mud, which dries and
hardens above Jiiin. When the mud is
softened in the rainy season the animal
resumes its activity. It seems that
crocodiles measuring twenty-two feet
length have frequently been killed,
There is no doubt that one of these
could swallow an ordinary human
being. A large specimen having been
killed and cut open in Ceylon tlie body
of a native was found in its stomach.—
M. W. Hazleton in New York Ledger.
Consumption Cured by Careful Feeding.
In 1881 a young man lay apparently
dying of consumption; a skeleton,
wasting by night sweats and cough
which threw off lung fibres, with fre¬
quent hemorrhages; cavities in both
lungs, heart enlarged, pul,so 120 , res¬
piration twenty unj more tlmcsa min¬
ute—a desperate case. He was fed on
beef from tlie top of the round, scraped
from fibre, the pulp daintily molded
witli knife and fork, not even the band
allowed to touch it lest the human heat
should change the condition of tho
meat; tlie beef broiled and seasoned to
taste with pepper,' salt, butter arid
lemon juice; even a little Worcester¬
shire sauce allowed.
The patient was fed this throe times
a day, given gentle tonics, bathed
twice a d% with ammonia of acid
sponge baths, and caret til ly watched,
f or life was likely to slip away at any
moment. The eougluand sweats left,
calls
