THE FIRST GERMAN PAPER.
Ben rraaJklln In 1733 Printed the
First Keltang In America.
The first newspaper printed in the
German language in America was the
I’hiladciphiscue Zeitung, published by
Benjamin Franklin in the year 1732.
The Pennsylvania Gazette for June
B-15, 1732, contains the following an¬
nouncement:
“The Gazette will come out on Mon¬
day next and continue to be published
on Mondays.
“And on the Saturday following will
be published' Philadeiphiscbe Zeitung,
or Newspaper in High Dutch, which
will continue to lie published on Satur-
* days once a‘fortnight, ready to be de¬
livered at Ten a Clock, to Country Sub¬
scribers. Advertisements are taken in
bjr the Printer hereof, or by Mr. Louis
Ttmotliee, Language Master, who trans-
latea them.”
In undertaking this new enterprise
Franklin expected to secure a liberal
support from the German population of
-■
the province, for whom _ Tie had been
doing considerable printing, but In this
he was disappointed, and the publica¬
tion of the Zeitung was discontinued
after a few numbers had been issued.
The Zeitung was a small slioet of
four pages, 6% by 9 inches, the text
printed in double columns with Roman
type, and at the bottom of the fourth
page bore the Imprint: “Philadelphia:
Gedruckt bey B. Francklln in der
Marck-etra»se, wo diese Zeituugen vor
-■ 6 Shillings des Jabrs zu bekommen
und Advertisements zu bestellen s*;id.’
The 0rst number was Issued Juue 10.
1732, and the second “Sonnabend den
24. Juni. 1732.” The publication of the
Zeitung, therefore, antedates by seven
years the Hoch-Deutseb Pennsylva^

How to Cure the Grip
Remain quitelv at home and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as di
reefed and a quick recovery is sure to
follow. That remedy counteracts any I
tendency of the grip to result in pneu¬ !

one case has ever been reported that

FASSINGf OF THE BELL.
No Lonser tint to Record the Jeya
and Sorrows of Humanity.
The solemn and impressive custom of
announcing death by the tolling of the
church bell will soon he-but a vague
and distant memory. 'The passing
bell” has itself passed away, and its
slow measured accents uo longer tell
tiie story of the departure < f one more
soul. The brief notice in the daily pa¬
per, while it conveys explicit'informa¬
tion, fails to give something tiiat the
bell’s telling carried with it- The sol¬
emn rhythmic tones awakened n mo¬
mentary vibration in the breast o r each !
listener and l ade each pause for sym¬
pathy and meditation. The bell ad¬
monished the sinner to repent and
warned the thoughtless that time was
flying while it spoke clearly and com¬
prehensively and bade all scattered
and preoccupied inhabitants attend its
story.
The bell’s voice is identified with all
the deepest and most sacred human |
emotions. It has bespoken the joys and
sorrows of all mankind for centuries.
Is its voice to die away and have no
part in the life of the future? The
wedding bells ring outano more save
in some song or story. The Christmas
chimes are seldom wafted to our ears.
The church bells ring but faintly now
and under constant protest. "The cur¬
few tolls tho knell of parting day” only
iu verse. A sunset gun today gives
greater satisfaction, The angeltis
sounds merely In pictorial form, the
fire hells give place to still alarms, the
dinner boil is silenced in polite society,
and sleigh bells are discarded.
What is the future of the bell—that I
happy silver tongue that has sung out
the joys of all the world,.that solemn
tone that has mourned for the nation’s
dead and voiced the nation’s woes and
summoned to their knees the nation’s
worshipers?—Atlantic Monthly.
QUARRIES OF OLD EGYPT.
Where Stone For Pyramids of the
Deeert Was Procured.
On the way to Philip and this head of
the cataract, a short distance south of
Assouan, we come upon the ancient
quarries which supplied the granite
for the columns, statues and obelisks
throughout Egypt for many centuries.
An obelisk‘which we saw lies in its
native bed. It is 95 feet in length, and
three"sides have been carefully cut,
but for some unknown reason it was
never separated entirely from the par¬
ent rock. The surface bears the tool
marks of the workmen. The grooves
in it show' that it was to have been re¬
duced at the sides. It was supposed
that the stone was split from its bed
by drilling holes in the rock and filliug
them with wooden wedges, which were
afterward saturated with water, the
swelling wood furnishing the power.
From illustrations in the temples it is
clear that these great monuments were
floated down the river on flatboats and
rafts and then carried inland by arti¬
ficial canahs or dragged overland by
thousands of slaves. In one of the
tombs at Beni-Ilassan is a picture il
lustrating the process. The great stone

To Avoid a Total Loss.
A Pittsburg man tells of a visit he
made at a ihrifty home in a nearby
town. Tiie call was quite a pleasant
one and during tiie evening “Abey,”
tiie hopeful son of the family, was
sent to die cellar for refreshments for
the guests He could be heard grop-
ing his way through the dark, and
then came the noise of something fail-
ing and the crash of glass, “Aliev's”
mother was plainly uneasy, but she
assumed the unnatural composure
which her society duties di manded.
Soon “Alley” came up with au armful
of bottles.
“What was that noise we heard,
•Abey’?' asked the mother.
“Nothing much.” replied “Abey.”
“1 knocked over a bottle of. milk and
it rolled down the steps and spilled.”
“Did you call the cat, ’Alley’?” asked
the thrifty woman.—Pittsburg News,
Frequent Vaccination.
Although almost absolute immunity
is secured for a period of six mouths
by vaccination, there is no certainty
that its effects will continue beyond
that time. In the majority of eases it
does, but the Interval for which this
additional benefit is enjoyed Is variable.
Hence those who have studied tho
matter most carefully recommend a
fresh operation if more than six
months have elapsed since the last one,
if a person is liable to be subjected
to peril, as in time of an epidemic.—

SHE HAS A NEW VALISE.
Why she Bonsht it and Why, Also,
She Will Not Lend It.
A Portland womau tells this story,
which may have a moral:
Several years ago her husband made
her a present of a traveling hag made
of black Russia leather, handsomely
mounted and strong and serviceable,
She had had it only a few days when
the sister-in-law of her boarding mis¬
tress borrowed It to take with her to
the White mountains. It looked so
much nicer than her own was her
apology. It had only been returned
a few days when a friend who was
going to tf, he a little journey up
among the hills of Oxford county beg-
g <>(1 t!l< * lo an of it. and again it was
taken dow n from "the upper shelf.”
Then another friend was to make a
visit of a few weeks in Montreal.
Couid she take ft? She could and did.
R v tills time the new look had van¬
-
ished. and still its owner had had no
occasion to carry it.
One evening a favorite cousin called,
He was captain of a brig which was
to sail for the coast of Africa the next
day, hut he himself was going on a
steamer via Ed land. Did his cousin
have a valise she wouldn’t need for
six months or so? Reluctantly the
traveling bag was produced, and that
was the last time the lady saw it for
two years, when it reached her by the
hand of a sailor from the hiig. But it
was in such a battered and forlorn
condition that she consigned it to the
waste barrel.
In the meantime she .... had bought ., a
new valise, which she declined to lend.
