Sacking: Polnonoas V.‘ouud«.
Among nil people the sucking of the
wound has ever been considered the
most effective remedy of Immediate
application for snake bites. In Africa
a cupping instrument Is employed In
emergencies of the kind to draw out
the poisoned blood. The ancients fol
lowed the same methods, and when
Cato made his famous expedition
through the serpent Infested African
deserts he employed many savage
snake charmers, caUed “psylll,” to fol
low the army. They performed many
mysterious rites over men who were
bitten, but the efficacy of their treat
ment appears to have consisted In suck
ing the wounds.

A Mualcal Beal.
The Courrler de Faria relates that a
party of men, sitting In front of a
boulevard cafe, were recently ap
proached by a man who had a clarinet
In his hand and who snide “Gentlemen,
excuse me. I have to make my living,
but I suppose you would rather give
me a sou not to hear me.” They took
the hint lie repeated thl9 perform
ance several times till one day one of
the men said he felt like hearing a
tune and asked him to play. “I am sor
ry,” s.ild the man with the clarinet,
“but I cannot play a note.”
Not Work to Ppcnrh.
A minister who used to preach In
Somerville bad a little l*>y. A few
days before his father left the city to
go to his new parish one of his neigh
bors said to the little boy, “So your
father is going to work in New Bed
ford, Is he?”
The little boy looked up, wondering.
“Oh, no,” he said, “only preach.”-'

The Dcnd Sea.
The dally average of 0,500,000 tons
of water is received Into the Dead sea
from the Jordan. There is no outlet,
and the level Is kept down by evapora
tion only, which Is very rapid because
of the intense heat, the dry atiuosphero
and the dry winds which are con
stantly blowing down from the gorges
between the mountains.

"I wonder," begun the man with the

The Wrong ltoll.
Immediately after a wedding which
took place in Washington the best man
started for South Africa, where lie re
mained more than a year. On his re
turn, says a writer in Harper’s Mag
azine, he was given a dinner and wore
evening clothes for the first time sluc6
the wedding.
In the midst of the evening, fum
bling in bis waistcoat pocket, be as
tonished himself and his friends by
pulling out a hundred dollar hill.
Where had It coine from? A sudden
thought Hashed across his mind.
The next morning he went to the.
clergyman who had married his
friends.
l>o you remember marrying Mr. Ar-
mitage and Miss Boutly about a yeai
ago?”
"Oh. perfectly,” replied the clergy
man. “1 see them constantly at my
church.”
Well, will you pardon me if I ask
you a delicate question lu strict con
fidence. How much did you receive
ns your fee?”
I will return frankness with frank-
ness,” returned the clergyman, smiling
whimsically. “It was the strangest
fee that ever came my way. After
the ceremony ttio best man, with a pro
fusion of thanks, slipped Into my hand
a small silver of plug tobacco wrapped
In a wad of paraffin paper!"

■Laylock,” the pronunciation of lilac
once very common, has now almost
entirely passed away. It is hardly
likely to lie found in dictionaries or
glossaries except such as profess to
give provincial variations of (spelling.
Sixty years ago, however, it was by no
means a provincialism or a murk of the
uneducated. I well remember that
Walter Snvnge Laudor always spoke
of “laylock*," as did my own mother
and most people of that generation. It
belonged to the age, now almost en
tirely passed away, which called Rome
“Room,” gold “goold,” St. James "St.
Jeamos,” with other variations of
sound "now deemed vulgar. I havo
heard my fattier say that George IV.
always sjioke of “my loyal city of
I.unnon," while “obleeged" and “cow-
cnmlx-r” were heard from the most
refined mouths.
I can distinctly remember on the first
Sunday In Advent, 1825, hearing the
officiating clergyman at St. Mary
Woolnnth give out sonorously when
reading the llrst lesson "like a lodge in
garden of cowcumtiers,” and my
dear old rector, Julius Charles Ilare.
twenty years later adopted tho same
pronunciation, saying at table,
“Obleoge by passing the eowcumher.”
“Vilcts,” ns a dissyllable for violets,
was equally common nmong people of
good education.—Notes and Queries.
A Sight For Snrnh.
Of n certain bishop, famous as about
the plainest man In England, the Liv
erpool Post tells this pleasing tale:
One day as this homely parson sat
lu an omnibus he was amazed by the
persistent staring of a fellow passen
ger. who presently unburdened himself
as follows:
“Vou’ro a parson, ain’t you?"
"Well, yes; that Is so.”
"Look ’ere, parson, would you mind
cornin' home with me to see my wife?”
Imagining the wife was sick and
needing assistance, the clergyman at
great Inconvenience to himself went
with the man. On arriving at the
house the man shouted to his wife to
come downstairs, and, pointing to the
astonished parson, said, with a grin
of delight:
"Look ’c 'ere, Salrry. Yer said this
mornln’ ns 1 wur the hugllcst chap In
England. Now, Just yer look at this
bloke!”

The readers of this paper wUl be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that soienoe has been of* 11 Syrup,
able to oure In all its stages and that it ~ “
Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Core is the
only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti
tutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, aoting direotly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the founda
tion of the disease, and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the consti
tution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so muoh
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer one Hundred Dollars for any oase
that it fails to oure. Sond for list of
testimonials.

Life is a failure,” said the tired
looking passenger In n grave and far
away voice. “Man Is a fraud, woman
a bore, happiness a delusion, friendship
a humbug; love is a disease, beauty a
deception, marriage a mistake, a wife
a trial, a child a nuisance; good Is
merely hypocrisy; evil Is detection.
The whole system of existence—life,
morality, society, humanity nud all
that—is a hollow sham. Our Itoasted
wisdom Is egotism; generosity is Im
becility. There is nothing of tiny Im
portance but money. Money Is every
thing, and, after all, what ts every
thing? Nothing. Ar-r-r-r-rl”

Aantralla’n Stony Desert.
The great stony desert of north Aus
tralia was discovered by Captain Sturt,
nn Australian explorer, In 1845-40. It
Is north of the river Darling and la
about 300 in lies long and 100 broad,
consisting of sandy dunes or ridges.
Its want of trees, except along tho
creeks, gives the country a sterile np
pearance. These ridges wore probably
formed by the Joint effect of winds and
a gradually retiring sea.
According to Captain Sturt, these
waters were gradually lost by evapora
tlon or carried to some undiscovered
sea. The only vegetation, growing scan
tily, are prickly acacias in full bloom,
Very Irritating:.

Gee«e Tliat Lay Golden
Once upon a time there was a pro
moter who owned n common, everyday
goose who luid the usual, ordinary
goose eggs. IIo conceived tho scheme
of syndicating the goose on a gold egg
basis and proceeded to do so.
He Informed the trusting public that
soon his goose would luy an egg of
gold each day and offered for sale
stock In tho Golden Goose Egg com
pany, limited, at bedrock prices. There
was a wild rush for tho stock, and tho
promoter suddenly found himself
wealthy.
He continued to sell tho stock as
long as there were buyers, for ho did
not want to kill tho gooso that laid
tho egg. Ills gooso continued tho same
ordinary fowl as before.
Moral.—There are featherless geese
that lay golden eggs.—New York Her

Minister** Maid*.
“Are you a minister’s wife?” was a
query encountered so frequently by a
young matron In search of a maid tlmt
she scented n story.
“Why this mania to live under the
droppings of tho sanctuary?” Inquired
the matron or words to that effect.
Then It appeared that the minister’s
family Is considered a most desirable
place bccauso of the opportunities for
witness fees In wedding cases. There
uro few bridegrooms who como with
out a witness to he married who will
not bestow a generous tip upon tho
girl who furnishes this small but nec
essary feature of the ceremony.—New

a patient a young lady sixteen years of
age, who had a very bad attack of dys
entery. Everything I prescribed for
her proved ineffectual and she was grow
ing wore every hour. Her parents were
sore she would die. She had become so
weak that she conld not tarn over in
bed. What to do at this critical mo
ment was a study for me, bnt I thought
of Chamberlain's Oolie, Cholera and Di

scribed it. The most wonderful result
was effeoted. Within eight hoars she
was feeling much better; inside of three
days she was upon her feet and at the
end of one week was entirely well.”
