THE ICELAND MOTHER’S LULLABY.
Duller the lgeloe’s archins; roof.
In the oil light’s shuddering glow.
An Iceland mother sits and croons
In measures weird and slow.
This lullaby to her baby Jo:
Swing out over the snow
Spirit of my baby Jo:
Swing out Into the nigh
Into the glow of the northern light.
Spirit of my baby Jo.
Swing low stars above
And touch the eyes of my baby love.
That he may see as he wanders far
Into Uio land of the golden star,
The mountains of ice and valleys of snow.
Where beautiful flowers and grasses grow
About the feet of my baby Jo

Chinese Evolution Theory.
The Chinese have as odd ideas about
the earth and the origin of man as they
have about other things with which
they, as well as ourselves, are better
acquainted. According to their way of
reckoning the rocks of the earth are the
bones of the divine body, the soil is the
flesh, the metals the nerves and the
veins. The tide, wind, rain, clouds, as
well as front and dew, are caused by
the respirations, pulsations and exhala
tions of this seeming inanimate body
Originally the mountains rose to the
skies, and the seas covered the mount
ains to their tops. At that time there
was no life in the divine body except
the divine Ufa Then the waters sub
sided; small herbs grew, and, in the
lapse of cycles, developed Into shrubs
and trees.
As the body of man, unwashed for
years, broods vermin, so the mount
ains, unlaved by the seas, bred worms
and Insects, greater creatures develop
ing out of lesser. Beetles in tbocour.se
of ages became turtles, earth worms
became serpents, and high flying in
sects became birds, ergots becoming
cranes, etc. Then wildcats became
tigers, the mantis was by degrees trans
formed into an ape, and some of the
apes became hairless. A hairless ape
accidentally made a fire by striking a
crystal against a flint. With the fire
thus obtained they cooked food. Eat
ing cooked victuals made them large,
strong and knowing.
With all its faults the above Is even
inoro reasonable than many of the
ideas advanced by the Darwinian evo
lutionists. —Bt. Louis Republic.
Love, Fright and Clam Sheila.
How easy It Is for a man to “fly to
pieces” in an emergency I
A few days ago I suw an occurrence
on the street of a large town In this
state that was as wildly exhilarating to
the bystanders as it wfts to the partici
pants bitterly humiliating.
A fine appearing young man was ac
companying an elegantly attired young
woman in a promenade about town.
All at once an enormous dog darted
from the open door of an eating houso
and, In full pursuit of a cat, dashed
fairly against the lady mentioned
above.
She fell prone upon the sidewalk In
a fainting fit. Her escort, in a verita
ble paroxysm of helpless fright, danced
frantically about, while the proprietor
of tile restaurant ran to the lady and
raised her head.
“Water, some one I" shouted the sa
loon man.
Here was where the panicky escort
saw a good opportunity to distinguish
himself.
Like a flash ho darted Inside the res
taurant and seizod upon a bucket
placed near the door. He dashed back
to the street, and with the idiocy that
fear Inspires in some threw the heaping
contents of the bucket over the face
aud form of the handsomely dressed
lady.
That bucket was filled with clam
shells and table refuse I
The match has been declared off, but
a speedier recovery from a faint would
never have followed the water cure. —

Prevalence of Deafness.
Dr. Francis Dowling, In a [wiper
wliich he read at a recent meeting of
the Cincinnati Academy of Medicine,
stated that “between the ages of 10
aud 40 at least one person in three Is |
subject to partial deafness. The great
majority of cases of Impaired hearing
are hereditary, and are lurgely owing
to a too close consanguinity of the pa 1
rents. Deafness Is more prevalent
among moles than among females,
owing to the fact that the male is more
exposed to the vicissitudes of climate.
There is much more deafness in A mop i
ica than in Europe, and this is due to
a more general use of scientific Instru
ments, such as telephones, where one
oar is used to the exclusion of the other.

True Courage.
There is a vast difference between
brutality and courage. What the
world needs to-day is not the courage
of the prize fighter-we have too much
of that already—but the courage of
Gen. Grant and Garibaldi, the courage
which has led thousands, when there
was need, to die, not onjy on battle
fields but in yellow fever hospitals, at
the martyr’s stake, and on the cross.
Such courage has never been promoted
by brutal sports which endanger either
human or harmless animal life —Dumh

METHODS OF MAKING FIRE.
j ItttfcnLions of the Untutored Savage for
Kindling Flames.
There are few things more curious,
■ and which furnish such food for reflec
tion, as the ways in which uncivilized
man makes tiro. The problem of the
| easiest and best way to get a spark
I must have been worked at in the
j earliest times, when the human race
j realized tho need of Are, and the man
| who solved the problem is one of the
■ world’s great but unknown benefactors.
It is not unlikely that various methods
i have been invented us the result of
1 theso attempts. It is true of the begln
-1 niniz of our marvelous age of Inven
tions. Tho modern period furnishes
the most singular ways, for the reason
that chemistry and physics bat e en
larged tho field.
For an immense period in man's His
tory the method of kindling fire afresh
was by turning or rubbing one stick
upon another. In Burundi a tribe called
the Kakhyens carry’ for striking a light
a cylinder of buffalo bom, with a cen
tral bore three-sixteenths of an inch in
diameter and three inches deep burned
in it. A closely fitting plunger of iron
| wood works in the hole. When the
j native wants a light he withdraws the
plunger and puts a bit of tinder into a
cavity in the end of it. The piston is
then inserted and driven down with a
quick blow, -suddenly withdrawn, and
j the tinder is found to be ignited. The
Dyaks, of Corneo, who were systematic
head hunters before the advent of Ra
jah Brooke, also made use of a beslapi,
or fire syringe of brass, lined with lead,
fitted with a wooden plunger.
Tiiis implement was known in tills
country under the name of “instanta
neous light giving syringe,” before the
invention of matches, but was not, gen
erally used, since, at best, it gave un
certain results, leading the lecturer to
saturate the tinder witli bisulphide of
carbon tominimizo the burden of proof.
It is an interesting question how the
I Dyaks and Burmese came to employ
the aeropliore for lire making. The
Cochin China people strike two pieces
| of bamboo together and ignite tinder.
Tito coating of amorphous, silex like
flint on the surface of the bamboo
yields a spark at a sharp blow. The
traveler Mr. W. T. llornody says that
the jungles are frequently fired by the
excessive friotion of the bamboos dur
ing a gale.
The Tungaras, of British North Bor
; neo, and the Ternate Malays carry at
tached to tho girdle a joint of bamboo,
often finely carved, containing tindefc
and a fragment of porcelain. The bit
of china with tinder is field In one
hand and struck against the bamboo
tinder horn held in the other, generally
getting a light at the first blow. The
Aleutians, of Alaska, make fire by dip
ping two pieces of quartz in sulphur,
wliich abounds in the islands, and
striking them together over u small
heap of down on wliich sulphur lias
been sprinkled. Some tribes of Es
quimau use two pieces of iron pyrites
or pyrites and flint in the same way.
Matches liavo gone everywhere and
supplanted tho native fire making pro
cesses. Holm, the distinguished Dan
ish arctic explorer, relates that an
Esquimau, on being presented with a
isix of matches, gave away his tire
drill, saying he would have no further
need of it. The National museum lias
a collection of tire making apparatus,
showing tho representative methods of
making lire used in various parts of the
world. It would be impossible to du
plicate the majority of the pieces now,
since trade lias carried matches to tho
ends of tho earth. .Blacksmiths can
start a fire by pounding violently a rod
of soft iron, first spreading on the anvil
a layer of powdered coal dust. This is
a good illustration of the conversion
of force into heat.—Popular Beienee
News.
Inventor Udlson’s Coolness.
Edison is a very cool man. When ho
struck the phonograph idea ho made a
crude tinfoil cylinder. It was made at
Menlo Park. Edison prepared for tho
first test and dictated “Mary had a
little lamb" Into a large |>a|>er tunnel
Krenzl, a confidential friend of tho in
ventor, stood by, and ventured the
opinion that the verse would not l>e re
peated by the machine. Edison turned
the machine in the opposite direction
and said calmly to Krenzl “I’ll bet you
$7 that it will talk buck.”
There wus silence for a minute, and
then came tho words baok through tho
funnel, “Mary had a little lamb,"
Krenzi jumped all over the room In
his excitement, while Edison simply
twisted his head and said with a quiet
smile, “Krenzi, 1 haw won the 57."

It is ft part of tho religion of every
epicure that dinner without cheese is
like a beautiful maiden with only one
eye. An Englishman of national repu
tation has said: “1 do verily think that
in 1828 a Stilton cheese was. a better
fellow than ho is In 1889,” and the man
ought to know, for he has eaten them
for almost three-quarters of a eentury.
Stilton is a quaint old village in the
northwestern part of Huntingdonshire,
in the west central part of England.
It has never been famous for any
thing but cheese. The Stilton that
comes to this country Is fairly good. It
lias been said that In the old days men
put less milk in their cream and less
water in their milk than at present,
but it is only fair to admit that the
crusty, brown old port that was taken
with it made it seem better to those
who ate it long ago. Stilton is the
most expensive of the cheese brought
to this country, and the sale for it Is
found altogether in the eastern states

Hood's Sarsaparilla do not be Induced to take .
any other. Hood's Sarsaparilla is a peculiar j
medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation,
curative power superior to any other article.
A Boston lady who knew what she wanted,
and w hose example is worthy imitation, tells
her experience below:
To Get
“ In one store where I went to buy flood's
Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to Induce me buy
their own Instead of Hood’s; he told me their’s
would last longer; that 1 might take It on ten
days’ trial: that If I did not like it I need not
pay anything, etc. But he could not prevail
on me to change. I told him I knew what
Hood’s Sarsaparilla was. I had taken it, was
satisfied with it, and did not want any other.
Hood’s
When I began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla
I was feeling real miserable, suffering
a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak
that at times I could hardly stand. I looked,
and had for some time, like a person In con
sumption. Hood’s Sarsaparilla did mo so
much good that I wonder at myself sometimes,
and my friends frequently speak of it.” Mas.

One ot Huskin'. Joluw.
1 met ft very charming English girl
who told me a most characteristic tale
of John Ruskin. One of tho classes at
Girton had just completed Buskin's
“Stones of Yoniet\" and to show their
appreciation of the author's work wrote
‘him a “round.robin” thanking him for
the pleasure this book had given them.
In a short time each signer of the letter
received a note from Mr. Ruskin telling
her that her writing was a dlgraeeful
exhibition ofigirlish ignorance, and that
she must write three verses from the
Bible every dav/for ft month and then
send her manuscript to him. And the
joke of it all, my young friend went on,
was that the girls were geese enough to
do it,—New York Star.
Gufair Taxation.
Senator Gerald Brown, state lecturer
of the Pennsylvania grange, said in a
siieech at Williams' Grove that the
necessity of uniting in one supreme ef
fort for the correction of the unequal
and unjust system of taxation prevail
ing In Pennsylvania had greatly in
creased by reason of the depressed agri
cultural interests. What could be tol
erated in prosperous times could not
now be endured, when the owners of
real estate were not only obliged to pay
their own tax, but a large majority of
that levied on other property holders.
Real estate was taxed seventeen mills,
but the holder of city and borough prop
erty could, and did, recoup himself to a
large degree by making up for the dis
crimination against real estate by com
manding corresponding higher rents.
The fanner h;id no power to raise the
price of lus products, and so repay him
self for increased taxes.

PLENTY OF BLANKETS FOR ALL.

“Unexpectedly I found myself forced
to run over to Boston,” said a man the
other day. “It was so warm and dis
agreeable that I determined to go by
boat, although I knew that I would be
unable to get a stateroom. I fancied
that I should enjoy sitting up until
late, when 1 could get a little nap In
one of the seats in the cabins. But
when the sun was down I found it cold
on tho water, and was driven into the
cabin from the deck. By 11 o’clock 1
was so sleepy that I could not hold my
head up. The fresh wind outside, fol
lower! by the warmth of the cabin,
acted like an opiate on me.

“ ‘I don't know,’ he answered doubt
fully.
“But he did know when I slipped a
dollar into his hand, for hi a short time
he came Ixick and made a bod for me.
I dropped off to sleep at once, and was
only awakened by feeling my blanket
roughly jerked off me. Sitting up in my
improvised bed I saw the retracing
form of my steward carrying the lifui

off.
