Tli* prnfctefit survival of weather low
In titan dm of Intellectual emancipation
Is not at nil remarkable when we con*
rider the extent to which the vulgar Bay
ing* embody real truth*. A few yean
ago lfamra. Abercromby amt Marriott
embarked on an extremely Interesting
Inquiry with a riew to determine.-by
. actual comparison, Itow far the popular
' proverb* express rotations or sequences,
which tiro results of meteorological
science show to bo real. The Investiga
tion proved that something like n hundred
of the more popular saying* are, under
ordinary conditions, trustworthy. Such
being tiro case, wo need not be surprised
* that simple country folk prefer familiar
couplets to oil tiro “Isobars, “ ‘•cyclones"
and “synchronous charts” In the world.
If “hills clear, rain near,” means tho
same os “the presence of a wedge shaped
' area of high pressure, accompanied by
great atmospheric visibility, is likely to
bo followed by tho advance of a disturb
ance with rain and southerly winds,”
which for all practical purposes it does,
tbo preference is justifled on tho mere
• ground of breath economy. The thirty-
one words demanded by eoience stand no
chnnoe against four.
But It is unfortunate that, along with
tho limited number of folk-sayings
founded on truth, tliero has survivod a
error. M 'niwo latter havo borrowed cro-
denco and respect from tho proved credi-'
bUity of tho others, and apparently they
aro oil destined to sink or swim together.
Hammer as we will at certain favorite
proverbs which wo know to bo based
upon error, It is all in vain. Tho rovor-
enco for tradition is too much for us.
And of all tho superstitions, pure and
simple, which defy our' attempts at de
struction, the most invulnerablo ore those
ascribing certain effects to tho influence
of tho moon.—John Westwood Oliver in
Popular Scienco Monthly.
South raeUle Island Products.
Both Now Britain and New- Ireland are
exceedingly fertile. Every tropical prod
uct can bo raised horo with success. The
inhabitants havo abundanco of provisions
in tho shapo of bananas, taro, yams,
swcot potatoes,' bread fruit and cocoa-
nuts, but very little fruit, although tho
latter is bring introduced by the mission
aries and traders. Unlike most other
volcanic islands In the Pacific, there is no
rooky soil to be found here; everywhere
it is a deep, rich vegetable loam. In
most tropical countries the soil has to bo
doored of a thick growth of jungle be
fore cultivation becomes possible; here
nothing but long grass obstructs the
efforts of tbo agriculturist Cotton, cof
fee, sugar cano and tea could bo raised
with littlo troublo, yet there are probably
not 100 acres of these products in culti
vation In the entire group, tbo great
drawback to oommeroe hero being the
scarcity of cheap labor, for no native will
work for another for any length of tlrno
unices well paid with tho highly prized
divara.—Son Francisco Chronicle.
To Save Life
Frequently require* prompt action. An
boar's delay waiting for the doctor may
especially in coses of Croup, Pneumonia,
and other throat and lung troubles.
Itcacor np fatally should be without a
bottle of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
which haa proved Iteelf, in thousande of
canoe, the beet Emergency Medicine
over discovered. It give* prompt relief
and prepare* tho way for a thorough
cure, which la certain to bo effected by
its continued us*.
S. It Latimer, M. D., Mt. Vernon,
Ga., ray*: " I have fonnd Ayer’s Cherry
Pectoral a perfect core for Croup in all
cases. I have known the worst cases
relieved In a very short time by its tiao;
and I advise all families to use it in sud
den emergencies, for coughs, croup, &c."
A. J. EUlson, M. D., Middletown,
Tenn., says: “I havo used Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral with the best offect in
my practice. Tills wonderful prepara
tion once saved my Itfe. t lm<l a con
stant cough, night sweats, was greatly
reduced in flesh, and given up n,v my
physician. One bottle aud a half of the
Pectoral "cured me.*’
“I cannot say enough In praise of
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,” writes K>
Iiragdon, of Palestine, Texas, "believ
ing ns I do that, l>at for its use, I should
long since have died.”

Cranks at tho German Capital.
Tho number of deranged people trying
to gain access to tho emperor of Germany
is remarkable. Hardly a day posses
without such an occurrence. Tbo other
day two such unfortunates entered the
palace simultaneously. It was a man
and a woman. The latter was the wife
of a poor boateman, asserting that she
was a near relative of the emperor’s and
had to see him after years of absence.
The man was well dressed, with a look
of distinction about him, and a flow of
white liair on hia head and long whiskers,
altogether a venerable looking, sympa
thetic llguro. He said he had engaged to
marry the daughter of the king of Italy,
and being a German and a subject of/tho
emperor bo had to obtain his majesty’s
permission before perfecting tho mar
riage. Both persons were taken to the
insane ward of tho Hospital of tho Charito
at Berlin.—Foreign Letter.
Knlelinaok* In Wood.
Early in tho present year tho mania
for knicknncks in pale shaded and
painted woods took a firm hold of Paris
ians, in 'whoso gay city tho idea origi
nated. At ftrst theso productions were
very crude, but that tlieic tilings were
fancied was sufficient to lead to many
improvements in tho various colors and
varnishes used In this method, which is
known as tho “verms Martin process,"
until now the work accomplished is
really artistic. It is not Ukriy, either,
that it will ever becomo very common.
Tiro work requires great care and pa
tience, and if these bo not exercised it
will bo sure to result in failure. Great
skill is not called for. Anyone fairly
clover with tiro brush may undertako tho
work without fear.—Philadelphia Even
ing Telegram.
Discarding Rubbers.
The fashion of discarding rubbers in
wet weather and having tho shoes oiled
instead was sot by tho police, letter car
riers and car drivers, and is now being
followed by thousands, whoso feet are in
jured by wearing rubbers. Those who
lm-o to face a winter out of doors ,nnd
wno complain that rubbers pain or
cripple them, unite in declaring that to
keep tho feet warm and dry it is only
necessary to wear shoes a size or two too
large, oil them and nut in a felt or cork
igsolo under a woolen stocking.—New
, york Sun. *
Study of tbo Scripture*.
. The study °f tiro Scriptures as a literary
fad which. was begqp bysomo seekers
after new things has not developed tho
social Interest that was expected; but
one person is spoken of who, having
taken to the study of the Hebrew and
Greek Scriptures from tho merest cu
riosity, luu developed a new interest in
the Christian religion. ~Bo«ton Criui-
