Tliero is more in a man’s nose than appears at first sight. The human nose is full of character. In cases where a nose has been lost character has be'en lost with it. It cannot be permanently and successfully disguised. This led to the remark about an unmistakable thing: “As plain as the nose on your face.” The nose was originally in tended as an organ for conveying to the brain the delicate sense of smell ing. Its uses have in many instances been perverted. Savages bore holes in their noses and hang jewelry on them. Dirty old men put snuff in their noses. It is an abuse of nature. A sneeze is an involuntary cffoi t of nature to blow out of the nose the snuff the dirty old man has put into it. When a gentleman is walking drunk on the street, police men say: “Ho has a sausage up his y . AAVJ UOO cl J' nose." Policemen know what they mean by such language, but in some way it goes that a drunken man is an offense to the nose. Some men talk considerably through their nose. Some vocalists seem to sing through the nose. It becomes an unmusical instrument—a nasal kazoo —when it is snored through. It is a nuisance when poked into the business of people who do not own it. See the man with the sharp, long, rounded nose, like the beak of an eagle. He is a combative man who wants to argue the case and wants to have his own way. Like the bird of freedom, lie wants liberty of ’pinions. The eagle nose is strong in character. It speaks for itself. It stands up for itself, and will not be snubbed or sat down upon. The Roman nose is also full of char acter. It is out of place and looks un happy on the face of the modern dude. It looked grand on the face of the ancient Romans, for which faces it was made. It was in harmony with l’ugged men who had decision of char acter and meant business. There could have been no great Caesar with an in significant, turned up or meaningless nose. Look at pictures of Washing ton, Wellington, Napoleon, or whom you will, and you will find that great men have had great noses. The Hebrew nose is a good nose. It is always in keeping with the face. If on the face of a beautiful Jewess it is beautiful, and yet it speaks of its race and origin, however faintly. Eyes and ears and chins and foreheads do'not. This is but an instance show ing how the nose is an open book on the pages of which history may be written. The African nose is flat and open. It is a warm country nose, open for an engagement with any air. It looks lazy, and is not fine. 'there are no perfect noses away from the marble features of statuary. They were not handed down to the modern Greeks. Just now the commercial nose is of most importance. In China and Ja pan the commercial men who sample, classify and buy teas are called tasters. They should be called smellers. They could not begin to do their work if they sipped and swallowed samples of all the tea they passed upon. The stom achs would not hold enough and the samplers would die. They depend upon their noses and base their opinions on the aroma of the steaming beverages. Then- noses never go back on them. Samplers of wines and of coffee rely upon the nose, and it is the same way with sugar men. The expert sugar broker trades on the judgment of nis nose, and he rarely gets left. The average human nose lias a hard time working its way through this world. It is an insignificant, shape less thing when it first appears on the face of baby and seems destined to be pinched frequently by .the ambitious nurse and always by the indiscreet “peek-a-boo” lady visitor. Then come accidents to the nose when it begins to grow up. The little toddler who wears' it falls over on it and bumps it; per haps disfigures it in rolling down stairs or falling out of the baby car riage while nurse flirts with the police man. Later the little thing is pressed against window panes and worn away looking at Christmas toys in shops or at the children the little nose owners would like to be playing with in the streets. Then comes the scratches and hurts noses receive in the battle of life, bearing its blows and bruises. Per haps one is fated to bo placed along side of a cross eye, and to be uncom fortably stared at during waking hours. And then when eyes become dim and weak their obliging neighbor, the nose, standing by and between them, must hold for old eyes spec tacles on its bridge and get no_ thanks for it, because eyes do not think and cannot imagine the nose helps them see. Pale in death the nose goes away to the tomb with all that is mortal of man. The funeral sermon is about the loving heart that was and the soul that is, and is to be saved, and the nose is forgotten. From the cradle to the grave the nose has a hard time. There are sharp and thin noses that seem to belong to mean men. There are proud noses that seem to tell of better days, even worn by shabby people. There are impudent noses that seem to turn up at everything, to carry an air of defiance. There are noses one wants to pull, and others the pugilists want to flatten. There are the beautiful red noses that are the result of much constant drinking and care and anxious solicitude. The red, red nose, that blooms in the spring, blooms also in the summer and winter. It has come to stay. It blossoms and bulges, and is the rosy record of many joyous events and the monument over many casks of brandy and demijohns of wine long since departed. The red nose colored by liquor is the most ex pensive of all noses, and should never be looked fer on the face of the man who is poor but honest. _On the face of a temperance lecturer it is a contra diction of his words.—New Orleans Picayune. ■-_ A REMARKABLE STORY. A Mat, Said to Be Blown Up by Dynam ite Within nim. The following most remarkable story is furnished The Huntsville Mer cury by one of its reliable correspond ents, and presents a case that will puzzle scientists no little: A strange occurrence took place m Blount county, Ala., yesterday which I will not attempt to explain, but give you the facts as they are. _ A party of Birmingham capitalists,^ largely interested in the minerals of the region, and some prominent rail road officials were here on a tour of inspection, with the view of opening some beds of iron ore and selecting the most practicable route for the ex tension of the new railway that leans up this valley. This, indeed, seems to have been the true battle grounds of the gods with “Pelion piled upon Ossa,” or the utter confusion of the geologists, who can not account for red iron ore in one side of a mountain, brown on the other, with veins of coal immediately under lying the top on both sides, so it was determined to leave them out of the party and carry along a practical man familiar with the formations peculiar to this valley for all geological in formation necessary in making an ap proximate estimate of the amount of solid and loose rock to be encountered on the extension. Accordingly an old foreman, Mr. Merts, who had had large experience in railroading in the west, was selected. He was an in telligent, sober and industrious man, who regularly once a month sent the greater part of his earnings to his wife and children in Kansas. He gave his opinions only after the most careful examinations, and the gentlemen had implicit confidence as to their accuracy. The party reached a perpendicular bluff’ about fifteen feet high, when Mr. Merts climbed down to°a ledge about six feet from the top and with his hammer was investigat ing the character of stones and their probable thickness. The gentlemen above heard several blows from bis hammer, then apparently a quantity of loose rocks falling and immediately a terrific explosion. They were all considerably shocked, but not other wise hurt, and at once went to the edge of the precipice, where they de tected the strong odor of dynamite, but to their consternation could see nothing of Mr. Merts. After a careful search some small pieces of hisclothing were found hanging in a tree about thirty feet from the ground, but that was all. The question for the scientists to settle is what caused the explosion. A number of peo ple’from Birmingham have visited the place, but I have heard only one plausible theory, and that was ad vanced by Mi*. Schultz, a scientist. It is known positively that Mr. Merts had no dynamite with him, and Mr. Schultz says the only possible way to account for the explosion is that he had constantly, for a number of years, been handling dynamite and nitro glycerine, and that so much had been taken into his system by absorption that it was only necessary for him to receive a slight jar to set it off, which was done when lie struck the ground on falling from the ledge. Whether his story is true or not I can’t say, but give the facts as they happened, and they can be substan tiated by a number of citizens in this vicinity and Birmingham, who will inform you if there is any more light on the subject. LENGTH OF DREAMS. The Paradoxes of Science. The water which drowns us, a fluent stream, can be walked upon as ice. The bullet, which when fired from a mflsket carries defith, will be harmless if ground to dust before being fired. The crystallized part of the oil of roses, so grateful in its fragrance—a solid at. ordinary.temperatures, though readily volatile—is a compound substance, containing exactly the same elements, and in exactly the same proportions, as the gas with which we light our streets. The tea which we daily drink with great benefit and pleasure, pro duces palpitations, nervous trem blings, and even paralysis, if taken in excess; yet the peculiar organic agent called theme, to which tea owes its qualities, may be taken by itself (as tlieine, not as tea) without any appre ciable effect. The water which will allay our burning thirst augments when con gealed into snow; so that it is stated by explorers of the Arctic regions that the natives * ‘prefer enduri ng the utmost extremity of thirst rather than attempt to remove it by eating snow.” Yet if the snow be melted it becomes drink able water. Nevertheless, although if melted before it enters the mouth it assuages thirst like other water, ‘when melted in the mouth it has the opposite effect. To render this paradox more striking, we have only to remember that ice, which melts more slowly in the mouth, is very efficient in allaying thirst:—Blackwood's Magazine. An Observer of the Subject Tells of His Otto Experience. This interesting question has been recently discussed in Germany, among others by Dr. F. Scholz, who has given some striking examples from his own experience and observation. It is very certain, however, that the majority of dreams are only of momentary dura tion, though extended occasionally to the length of a minute. In proof of this Dr. Scholz tells the following story from his experience: After excessive bodily fatigue and a day of mental strain of a not disa greeable kind, I betook myself to bed after I had wound up mv watch and placed it on the night table. Then I lay down beside a burning lamp. Soon I found myself on the high sea on board a well known ship. I was again young, and stood on the lookout. 1 heard the roar of the water, and golden clouds floated around me. How long I so stood I did not know, but itseemea a very long time. Then the scene changed. I was in the country, and my long dead parents came to greet me; they took me to church, where the loud organ sounded. I was delighted, but at the same time wondered to see my wife and children there. The priest mounted the pulpit and preach ed, but I could not understand what he said for the sound of the organ, which continued to play. I took my son by the hand, with him ascended the church tower—but again the scene was changed. Instead of being near my son I stood near an early known but long dead officer—I ought to ex plain that I was an army surgeon dur ing the maneuvers. I Was wondering why the major looked so young, when quite close in my ears an unexpected cannon sounded. Terrified, I was hurrying off, when I woke up, and noticed that the supposed cannon shot had its cause in the opening of the bedroom door through some one en tering. It was as if I had lived through an eternity in my dream, but when I looked at my watch I saw that since I had fallen asleep not more than one minute had elapsed—a much shorter time than it takes to relate the occurrence. Dr. Scholz has collected many other examples of a similar kind.—True Flag. She Dropped the H. A few days ago an English actor had occasion to visit a well known young physician in this city whom he had laiown quite a while. He was accom panied by his wife, a thorough Briton, who in Her conversation dropped and supplied her h’s as many dwellers on the isle do. The physician introduced the lady to his mother, who prides herself on her knowledge of ancient history and who had also been ac quainted with the husband. While the gentlemen were transacting their business, the ladies carried on a lively chat. The actor’s wife told in her own way of an instance where her husband had displayed great bravery, and by a happy speech had averted a panic at Niblo’s garden. Ending her story she said: “ ’Any his quite an ’ero.” “So,” replied the doctor's mother, apparently greatly astonished, “I knew he played a great many parts, but I never heard that ho had played the fiddle. ” It took several minutes before all could appreciate the point of her re ply, but the doctor said that she had recently read a great deal about Nero, the Roman emperor.—Cincinnati En quirer. Ability Required to Be a Dude. Not a little ability is needed to he a dude. It takes considerable force of character to be willing to pass for a fool rather than to give up one’s con victions. A striking illustration of the fact of what a dudo may bo is fur nished by Prince Ferdinand of Co burg. W hen he ascended the much disputed throne of Bulgaria the world laughed at the idea that a fop should for a moment think of holding that vexed seat. Now it is dawning on the public that Prince Ferdinand has as good a grip of his scepter as he had on the fashions aforetime, and that to get him off the-Bulgarian throne noth ing short of a general European, war would suffice. Ho has gone quietly and determinedly forward, and, with, the persistance and concentration. he learned as a dude, he has made him self master of the situation. He may be regarded as a type, and, while there must still be those who consider the energies of one of these elegant crea tures as misapplied, in the face of facts it seems foolish to deny their ex istence.—Boston Courier. »Ilia Fisk’s Jjomimem. After dinner at the leading hotel of die place, a more pretentious hostelry than they had met since leaving the Massasoit, of Springfield, our friends started out for a stroll through the town, and ultimately found them selves in the cemetery, which is lo cated upon a hill a little south of and overlooking the depot, and from which the photographic view was taken. Here, as they wandered among the tombs of this charming resting place of the dead, culling bits of wisdom from the various inscriptions, all re minding them of their end, they came rather unexpectedly upon the monu ment of “Jim” Fisk, the financial hero of Black Friday. It is an imposing and beautiful structure of white granite from the quarries of Dunnnerston, a little way up the river, and Was erected by his widow at a cost of nearly $200,000. It consists of a shelf mounted upon a square base, at the four corners of which are life size figures of Com merce, Finance, Banking and Rail roading. all charmingly conceived and admirably executed. Aesthetically considered, it is a rare and beautiful piece of work, but what a commentary upon the truthfulness of monumental fame! As our friends viewed the beautiful structure and criticized its design and execution, the excitable Tinto broke out into strong animadversions against the propriety of such a contribution to posthumous glorification anent a man whose name, while living, was a syn onym for everything that was ‘ ‘Hush, perturbed spirit, ” interrupted the dominie. “This memorial of him stands in a secluded spot, far from the eyes of men; and it was the least his widow could do in return for the wealth he left her. As for the rest, judge not, lest ye be judged.” And the perturbed spirit was hushed.—• American Magazine. fjarper & Brot^rs^pcmbicab. HARPER’S MAGAZINE. ILLUSTRATED.

The strange circumstance of a man finding liis “orphans” at the Ohio Sol diers and Sailors’ Orphan home, where their mother had procured their ad mission, happened here recently. A man named Keating, claiming to be a stucco plasterer from Newport, Ivy., came here and found his three chil dren—a girl, 14 years old, and two boys, younger—at the home. He de manded that they be turned over to him, as he was able to support them and they were not entitled to be there any way, as they were Kentucky chil dren. But the board would not re lease them, as they said they did not want to go with him. Keating claims his wife got the children placed in the home fraudulently, and has employed Hon. John Little"to get them out for him. Orphans with father and mother both living are a new variety.—Xenia (0.) Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer. New York’s Smokers. “There does not appear to be any decrease in smoking cigars and cigar ettes,” said an old tobacconist to, an Evening Sun reporter. “Here are some figures about the manufacture of these goods in this city. The cigars manufactured since Jan. 1 last were 042,038,749; the cigarettes, 491,979,020. In October, this year, the number of cigars manufactured here was 73,009,- 800, and the number oi cigarettes 54,- 415,800, against 52,747,200 for th» same period in 1887. “The cigars manufactured, this year are a little stronger than in former years,” continued the speaker. “This is of course due to the fact that the leaves are stronger. I find that the majority of smokers prefer a strong or medium cigar because they contain r.'. x'O flavor and produce a sweeter vl M He Conquered Her Affection* A Georgia lover, when refused by his adored, whipped out a razor and sliced off’ one of her cal’s.

Jules links’ Air Ship, An amiable inventor named Jules Imbs is, it appears, quite san guine about his new method of an iul locomotion by means of boats, worked on something like the “switchback railway” system.

M- Imbs is working at his wonderful in vention in the Rue do Traktir, off the Avenue Victor Hugo, but people will have to wait a little before they can put any trust in his promises on such unprecedented velocity of locomotion. —Paris Cor. London Daily Telegraph. Hospitality of the Cubans. During these rides the remarkable Cuban hospitality of which I have al ready spoken was again and again em phasized. It was simply.impossible to get past any habitation, from that of a decayed but still well to do planter to the humblest charcoal burner’s cabin, without dismounting for a light for our cigars, or a few minute’s chatter over the dolorous condition of affairs in the island, during which “coffee” must be taken. There being neither stoves nor fireplaces in Cuba, the question of cooking fires becomes an odd one. In the cities, all cooking is done on charcoal urns, in the larger establishments these often being arranged in the form of massive charcoal ranges. But in these re mote country places, a little pagoda like corner is built next the house, or a detached structure, not unlike an American farmer’s large smoke house, is seen. Here the fire is built squarely upon the ground, or upon or within rude stone bases, and the smoke as cends at will, usually finding vent un derneath raised roofs. In this primi tive cocina, or kitchen, the guarda candela (literally candle, or fire guard) is always smoldering.

John Cl Calhoun once pointed to a drove of mules from Ohio and said to Corwin: “There go some of your constituents.” “Yes,” said Tom, “they are going down south to teach school.” Governor Brough was once matched against Corwin, and in the midst of his speech said: “Gentlemen, my honored opponent himself, while he preaches advocacy ©f home.indus try, has a carriage at homo which he got in England—had it shipped across the ocean to him. How is that f or sup porting home industry and labor? When Corwin came on the stand he made a great show of embarrassment, stammered and began slowly: “TVell, gentlemen, you. have heard what my friend Mr. Brough has to say ot my carriage. I plead guilty to the charges, and have only two things to say in my defense. The first is that the carriage came-to me from an .English ancestor, as an heirloom, and I had to take it. Again, 1 have not used it for seven years, and it has been standing in my back yard, all that time, ancf the chickens liave converted _ it into a roost. Now, gentlemen,” with a steady look at Brough, “i have nothing fur- tlier to say in my defense; but I would like to know how Brough knows any thing about my carriage if he has not been visiting my chicken roost.
