BIDES LIKE A COSSACK. The Archduchess once rode horsebaek from Reechenau to Gurs and back a distance of considera bly morn than 100 miles, without stopping. A court digaitary ven tured to remonstrate with the Em peror about the matter, urging that the Archduchess was by sueh imprudences endangering not only her health but also the succession to the Crown. “Ah, it is easy to see that you are not a married man," was the reply of His Apostolic Magesty. The Archduchess is a bold moun taiueer, ana unaided by profess ional guides, she has made some exceedingly difficult, ascents in I Austria and in Switzerland. She I paints beautifully, too, sculptures I well, writes cleverly and is singu- I larly well fitted mentally and I physically to become the Empress I of <) sport-loving people. ax impress's circus feats.

She is a superb swimmer, t»o, riv alling Queen Christina of Spain and Queen Pia of Portugal, wears two medals for saving life at sea at the peril of her own. EMPRES3 DRIVES A TROIKA. The widowed Empress of Rusia exc lsin driving a troika, three horses abreast, the two wheelers being kept at a trot, while the third maintains a steady, unswerving canter. It sounds very easy, but is very difficult, and the Dowager Czaritna is one of the few Russian women who have mastered it. The widowed Queen of Naples is the h roof theseige of Gaeta, and the only Lady Kr. ight of the Rus sian Order of St. George, an honor conferred solely for exceptional gallantry under fire. She is skilled sailor and alone often sails a small boat, in all sorts of weather, across the English channel from Folkestone to Boulone. Her sister the Empress of Austria, races horses, her entries bearing, the pseudonym of "Court Isoila. THE MARVELS OF AN OS TRICH’S STOMACH. The post mortem examination of one of the flock of ostriches •wned by Barnum & Baily, which h is been on exhibition at the Cen tral Park menagerie, New York- City, gave the spectators a won derful •bject lessons of the diges tive capabilities of an ostrich. The ostrich was dissected by a taxi dermist. He found the following articles in the bird’s stomach. One wooden clothes pin, the hot toms of two beer bottles, a mouth harmoi i;a five inches long and two inches wide,, a ferule of an umbrella with a piece of the stick in it about fourj inches long;a metal skate key ; a brass door key, five inches long; a woman’s black horn comb : two pieces oi coal; a woman's silk haknerchief; three stones about an inch thick, to gether with some cabbage, grass, lettuce, celery and considerable dirt . Straneg to say, the ostrich did not di« of indigestion, but from tuberculosis. The bird will be mounted in the meseuni and it would be interesting to preserve alongside the collection of objects which was found in its stomach . HOWTOTIIE BORE GLASS. Strange glass plates bored through by means of rotating brass tubes of the necesary diameter, which are filled with water during boring. To the water there is added finely pulverized emery. The boring cylinder is put into motion by means of a drill or bow drill. Weaker glass can be provided with holes in an easier manner by pressing a disk of wet clay upon the glass and making a hole throgh the clay of the width desired, so I HE HUSTLER OF ROMF SUNDAY.

This method is based upon the 'quick, local heating of the glass, whereby it obtains a circular crack ’he outline of which corresponds to the outline of the hole made in the clay The cutting of glass tubes, cylinders, etc., in the fac tories is based upon the same prin ciple, savsa Pittsburg paper called 'China, Gas and Lamp?. [ LEET AND RIGHT LIMBS The physiologist and scientist iu general have been making some I curious experiments in London, with a view to determine the rela tive length and strength in right ! and left limbs. Fifty and nii.e tenths per cent of the men meas ured had the right arm stronger than the left ; 16.1 per cent had the two arms of equal length and strength and 32.7 per cent had th© I left arm stronger than the right arm. Os women, 46 9 per cent had the right arm stronger than the left, 24 5 per cent had the left stronger than the right. In order to arrive at ’he average of length of limbs. 50 skeletons were measured, 27 of each sex, cf these 23 had the right : arm and left leg longer, six the JeftarWjßnd right leg, and foi r the right arm and right leg, while in 17 case all the members were more or less equal in length.

These poles ace composed of paper pulp, in which borax, tallow and other ingredients are mix d. This is cast in a mold in such a manner as to give it a hollow center throughout its entire length, with a close-fit ting cap tarred on the top. These poles are said to be lighter and stronger than similar sized poles of wood, and to be unaffected bv sun, rain or dampness. Don’t think because you are sick and nothing seems to give you relief that you can’t be cured. There must be a cure for you somewhere. If your doctor can’t cure you, perhaps he has mistaken the I cause. Anybody is liable to make a mistake sometimes. One in three of us suffer from indigestson, and one out of three! dyspeptics doesn’t know it. That I is, he may know he is sick, but he I blames it to something else. Indigestion is the cause of half 1 of our dangerous diseases. Shaker Digestive Cordial, made from tonic medicinal roots and herbs, is the most natural cure’ for indigestion. It relieves the symptoms and cures the disease gently, naturally, efficiently, giving fresh life, strength and health to sick dyspeptics. At druggists.
