TRUE TO HIS WORD.
Good Advice That Was Followed and Un
coiled on the Head of the Giver.
Giving advice is on* tiling, and feel
ing the effects of having it followed la
quite another thing. Professor Julius
Kiel the rg, the well known violinist,
says that he once had as a pupil a
promising little fellow of sonic 8 years,
who would not study. As the boy was
about to setout with his family for the
country, where they wore to puBs the
summer, Mr. Eichborg asked him what
he should do tltere.
“dh," said tho boy,' “I shall piny
and pick dowers and huve a good
time.”
“Yes; but suppose you made up
your iniud to get up an hour earlier
every morning to practice? You
woU,ld still huve time for sport, and in
the fall you would be kblo to pluy
those sonatas you admire.” >
The result of the oonvorsatioii was
that Otto flung hiinSelf upon the neck
of his teacher, of whom he was ivory
fond, add promised to do what was
asked of him.
A few weeks later, aa Mr. Eichborg
vyas driving through tho mountains
with his family, ho was one day de
layed, ao that the hotel where they
were to pasa the night was reached at
a lata hour of the bight.
The accomodlttipp/i were poor, and
the night was warm, aud it was near
morning beforifc the travelers fairly got
U> sleep, tend it seemed to Mr. Eichborg
that he scarcoly closed Ills eyes before
ho was aroused by tho doloful sound
of a violin in a room overhead, whore
some one was at work upon an exer
dise With which the listener was only
top fauipiar.
For an interminable hour ho tossed
about,. hoping that the nbiso would
cease- then he rose and dressed and
hastened; to the office of the hotel to
protest.
''Yos, it is something of a nuisance,”
tho clerk answored, Coolly, "but we
arc used to it here. The hoy has played
every morning this summer, aud it
was in the bargain when they took the
rooms that he should be ullowed to do
it.”
It wag evidently of no use to com
plain to the clerk, aud Mr. Kichberg
relieved his mind by declaring that he
should at least like to see tbe player of
the violih.
"Oh, ypu can see him if you want
to,” tho dork said. "He has just come
downstairs. You will find him out
side there.”
Awqy hurried tho guest, tbe more
irritated by the way in which his re
monstrance had been received, and be
fore the door on the lawn stood a trim
little lad with his face turued away.
"Are you the boy,” demanded Mr.
Kichberg, sternly, "thut has been mak
ing such a noise on the violin fbr an
hour?"
Tho boy turued and looked at him,
at first with an expression of fright;
then, with a cry of joyous recognition,
little Otto flung himself impulsively
into his touchers arms.
"Oh, my dear Mr. Kichberg, " he
cried; "I am so glad to sec y6u 1 I have
got up and pluyed eyery morning just
as I promised I"—Youth’s Companion.
Ills Memory Dooolvod Him.
A man who wus accused of theft set
up a plea of insanity, hoping thereby
to elude punishment. Professor Men
del, of Derlin, was deputed to extuniue
the prisoner aDd report on the state of
his mind. He found the man lying in
bed- To all tbe questions that lie put,
such os how old be was, where he
lived, what he was called, the patient
invariably replied:
“I don’t know."
Then Professor M took sixpence
out of his purse and asked again how
much it was.
"I don’t know,” was the answer, us
before.
The doctor then asked for the pris
oner’s purse, out of whi«|k he took a
shilling, and once more the man de
clared ho didn.t know its vulue;
whereupon Professor Sit put the
sixpenc* into the prisoner's purse while
transferring the shilling to bis own.
Here the patient interfered, saying:
"Why, doctor, you've made a mis
take.”
The imposture was laid buro.—Bre

Buffalo Bill’s first performance in
Naples was pretty well attended,hut, on
counting up tho receipts, tho cashier
discovered that over two thousand
francs in spurious bank notes had been
paid in at the ticket office for which
change had been given in good, genu
ine, hard cash. Col. Cody hurried
off to the prefecture in great excite
ment to lodge his complaint. The
civil functionary, after listening to
his grievances, could find nothing bet
ter to say titan, "Che gi-au popoloi”

A Civil Service Examination.
There are people who seem born
with a faculty for always gottlng
things wrong, and it must have been
ono of these who figured in an inci
dent which occurred at tho City hall,
in Boston. Into the room whore tho
city physician hold examinations of
candidates for the police force cable
an awkward looking fellow ono day.
"Capt. Blank," he said, mentioning
the name of tho captain of a police
station, “sont mo here to be examined.
Is this the room?”
He was told that it was, and after
his name, ago and other things of this
sort had boon written down, ho was di
rected to take off his coat aud shirt.
The physician then examined his heart
and lungs, and mado the usual in
quiries, tho candidate all tho while get
ting more and more impatient. When
he was directed to remove tho remain
der 6f his clothing his pationce gave
Way entirely.
"Look hero," he said, atigrily, "1
never was treated so in my lifo. Why
should I tako off toy' clothes just be
cause you say sot”
"Why, it is oustomary to make thtf
examination thorough," tho physician
explained, patiently. "I am treating
you exactly ae I treat everybody else.”
"All right,” the man said, sulkily,
beginning to disrobe, "but I'll be
hangtbd if I aee what all this has to do
with the case.”
"Why, if you want to go on the
polios force you must of course sub
mit to the tests. ”
"Police forcol" exclaimed tho man,
in mingled fury and astonishment;
"I came hero to be exuniiuod as a wit
ness.”
"In that caso,” the doctor answered,
smiling at the situation, " you may
put on your clothos nnd go into the
room over this."-—Youth’s Companion.

An eminent English dentist pre
tests against tho present extravagant
waste of human teeth by surgeons and
incompetent dentists, and declares that
while there are, maybe, sufllcieul
reasons for extracting a tooth, it is
never necessary to dp so merely to re
lieve pain. In at least 90 per cent, of
the cases coming to an activo dentist,
pains in the teeth are due to what may
be called primary and secondary tooth-
aohe. Primary toothache, tho pain
of whioh is oftener felt in tho. nerve
terminals in tho face than in tho tooth
itself, is congestion of tho tooth pulp,
and it may be relieved very eusiiy by
careful excavation, sufficient to allow
an escape of blood from the pulp, which
may then be devitalised by an arseni
cal dressing.
' To complete the operation, which
maybe postponed for weeks without
further inoonvenience, tho pulp must
be removod from tho root caniils aud
these filled to the apex. Secondary
toothache, or ftjypplar abscess, is
caused by gangrene of tho pulp, and
is regarded by most surgoons us so se
rious as to call for a removal of the
tooth, which, in nino oases out of ten,
might be retained and made usoful
ana comfortable. The course of treat
ment is an opening to the pulp to re
lievo the pain, followed by a series of
antisceptic dressings in the roots to
cleanse them from all puroscont mal
lei’, and. then, as in. the other case,
filling them to the apex.—New York
Commercial Advertiser.
Lffa Preserver for Miners.
An English Invention consists of an
apparatus for Ascertaining tho contig
uity of water or gas workings in
mines, and fbr passing food to impris
oned miners and for rescuing them.
The apparatus for ascertaining the
state of a mine as regards upprooching
danger consists of a chamber fitted
with a slide valve, which can be open
ed and closed at pleasure. Through a
stuffing box in the chamber on tho
working side passes a boring tool, with
which the miner drills a holo In the
coal to the distance inwards to which
ho intends to work. Assuming this
to be, say, eight feet, when he bus
reached that distance he withdraws
the boring tool, and if neither gas nor
water has made ita appearance, lie
knows that he can safely go in so far.
Should lie tap water or gas during the
boring there would be an inrush of
the one or the other into the chamber
of the apparatus and its prcscnco
would be indicated by a pressure
gauge. The boring tool would then
be withdrawn as far as tho stuffing
box, tho safety valve would ho closed
in front of it, and steps would he taken
to insure safety in the workings.—New
York Commercial Advertiser.
A pretty conceit in flowers was
shown in the Hotel Brunswick at tho
meeting of the piano makers. It was
an imitation of an upright piuuo of
regulation size. Violets formed the
body, lilacs and white carnations the
keys, and red and white roses consti
tuted the rest of the design.- j”

Knocked Out Ilrir r»|>ue
John B. Jeffery had an experience
with his two bright little hoys that is
one more illustration of how juvenile
cutoncss will often disarm anger. One
ovoning when the bedtime for tho lit
tie folks had arrived they seemed to be
in a state of great hilarity. Mrs. Jeff
ory intimated to them that it was time
for them to go, but in thoir high glee
the boys did hot obey with their usual
alacrity. Mr. Jeffery then spoke l. >
them, and a glance at “papa" told them
ho meant business, so they started off
with ill concealed reluctance. Once
out of sight of their parents, anew
idea seised the boys, and instead of go
ing directly to bid they went up int
a room at tho top of the house fitted
up os a gymnasium.
More the two urchins put on boxing
I 'loves and began sparring liko two
ittle Sullivans. They were none too
quiet, aud the noise they mode wh--
heard down iu the sitting room. Mr
Jeffery douuvd his severest frown and
marched up stairs. Opening the door
of his gymnusiutn lie saw his boys go
ing tor each other like Trojuns. The;
saw him at tho same momont, and both
at tho sumo time dropped down on
their kuooa, threw up their hands, still
burdened with tho boxing gloves, u-
though they wore at prayer, aud said
in mock eurncstuess: "Npw I layslnr
down to sloop.” Hie act knocked Mr
Jeffory out completely, and ho could
not utter a cross word. Ho shook his
finger at thorn jn playful sternness and
ordered them to bed. This tlmo tho
littlo fellows went, but they know they
had taken tho wind out of papa’s sails.

in the paper, including tho advertise

"What do you do in such au event?”
"Oh, I simply tako a seat near him
and glare. Yes, sir; gluro with all the
tigerish concentrated ferocity an amia

weak blue eyes.”
"What happens?”
"Oh, ha shifts about uneasily, as if
ho were the focus of four doson pairs of

want to get. But men don’t bother me
nearly as muph as women. Why? Bo
camw women are impervious to and
wholly oblivious of a glare or a stony

They inyoriahly talk of thoir respect
ive fathers, and the evident desire of
each is to place his own particular pa
terrial parent upon tho highest pinna
do. "My father knows more than
yours,” says one boy to another,
"causa he’s a newspaper man—he
writes for the paper.” The other boy
sniffs contemptuously and says:
1 'Hull 1 he don’t write any, ho gets ad
vertisemonta. That's what my pa
says.” Then tho first boy gets back
with: "Maybe he does, but he gets
free tickets to tho theatre, just tho
same.” This is usually a crusher, a-,
boys do not usually see anything
above free theatre tickets. A third boy
boasts that his ph is on the board of
trade and that he has often accompan
iod him there, while a fourth boy’s pa
is in a railroad office and can ride
without paying. So tho youngster:,
go on, whilo their fathers hustle for
them, and tbe "old gents” would all
feel proud if they knew whatenthusi

was standing ready in tho workshop,

some hoys in tho shop kindled some
wood to make a fire to warm them

out extinguishing tho fire, and the
flames spread to the sawdust laid for
tbe statue to slide on when removed,
and in a short time the figure, all but
the head, was burned and reduced to
