THE BRUNSWICK TIMES-CALL, AUGUST 19. 1900'
CASK IS NEVER EMPTY.
Par Tear* Wine la Drawn From It
to Celebrate Greut Events.
All really excellent champagne Is the
result of judicious blending. Time
was when each big vineyard owner
had his own cellar and his own brand.
But It has been found advantageous to
sell the raw wine to dealers, who make
one district supply what another lacks.
But there are still* a few provincial
establishments that cling to the old
ways—crowning with a wreath of flow
ers the first tubful of ripe grapes and
keeping “the bride of the cellar” full
from year to year.
The bride, be It understood, is a spe
cial wine cask filled with the first run
ning of tho press. More accurately It
holds the juice which drips away be
fore any pressure is applied. Wine
from It is never sold, but used upon
high days and holidays, passed about
as a gift or devoted to the comfort of
the sick and the poor.
Something akin to the bride exists in
the German free cities. Each of them
has a wine cellar, and In each cellar
there is a cask always yielding wine,
but never empty.
Any burgher Is entitled to demand a
bottle of Its contents when he marries,
iHien his first son is christened and
also when the son Is 21. If the son Is
adventurous or the burgher himself,
for that matter, he gets another bottle
from the cask when he comes home
from far countries.
But there Is an official specially
charged to see that whenever a bottle
ful Is drawn out another bottleful of
as near as possible the same quality at
once goes in. And thus It happens that
the city cask is never empty.—Boston
Globe.
Deeded to tbe Lord.
The most remarkable deed ever
drawn may be seen on the private es
tate of a resident of Worcester In Mas
sachusetts. It Is chiseled on a rock
on what Is known as Rattlesnake hill,
situated near the boundary lino be
tween Worcester and Leicester.
Old Solomon Parsons, who was wide
ly known in Worcester county as an
eccentric character, and particularly
as a crank on the subject of religion,
paid William C. Hall $125 for a parcel
of land, and directed Hall to convey It
by deed to the Almighty. In order
that the greatest possible publicity
might be given to his disposition of the
property Parsons had the deed of
transfer cut Into the rock verbatim et
literatim.
During his lifetime Parsons is said
to have made several attempts to have
the deed recorded, but the register of
deeds, who was aware of his eccen
tricity, each time put him off with the
explanation that no official record was
required In the case of a transfer of
real estate to the Almighty.
Parsons died Intestate several years
ago, and the administrator included
the parcel of land on Rattlesnake hill
In the Inventory of the old gentleman’s
estate which he filed in the probate
court. A wag of a lawyer raised the
question of title, but the judge decided
In the favor of the administrator.—
New York Journal.
Anecdotes of Colonel Ege.
Colonel Ege was a famous character
In the early days. Although living In
Doniphan county, he was often in Atch
ison, followed by a pack of hounds.
He was a high toned southern gentle
man, with a kind heart.
One day while returning home from
this city he came across a man whose
wagon was stuck in the mud in Inde
pendence creek bottom. Colonel Ege
at once started in to help the man pry
out his wagon with a fence rail.
While both were working away Ege
became angry and yelled to the man.
“Lift, you son of a gun; you are not
lifting a pound.” The man picked up
the end gate of the wagon and split it
over Ege’s head, laying him up for
three weeks. Ege had his hat off when
he was struck and was so bald before
coming to Knnsas that he was known
as the Bald Eagle of Maryland.
Ege always carried a pistol and was
always trying to shoot through some
body’s hat without hitting him. One
day, at the Independence creek ferry,
he shot at a man, but aimed a little
low and creased him- But Ege was
always a gentleman; he took the man
Into bis home and tenderly cared for
him until he recovered.—Atchison
Glohe.

“George, dear,” she said a night or
two before the wedding, “do you think
it possible that our love and our mar
ried life can become the commonplace,
coldly practical love and life of the
married people we see around us? Oh,
George, my heart would break If 1
thought so!”
"But it will not be so,” said George
passionately. “We love each other toe
tenderly, too fondly for that. Our love
|g not of the ordinary kind, my darling,
and our lives will not be so. Ah, no,
no, my angel; that can never be!”
And the other day she said: “I say,
George, how would you like pork for
dinner with apple sauce? You would?
All right, then, and don’t you forget
that feeding bottle for the baby or I’ll
send you back after it, and mind that
you don't keep dluner waiting.”
And he, with a falling off of the
passion of ten years ago, replied: "AH
right, Lou, and I wish you’d sew a
button on the back part of those strip
ed trousers of mine. You’ll find them
hanging over a chair in our room.
Don’t have the pork as dry as last
time, and you watch the baby’s cold.
That watering of the eyes looks like
measles to me. Goodby.’’—l’earsou’s

The ring-kal does not disdain an In

custs and termites are all readily de

ed from the hides of cattle. I have
sometimes amused myself by watching
the bold yet cautious and gentle man
ner In which one of these ravens will
approach a reclining ox and, after a
preliminary course of soothing caress-
es, accompanied by a soft “cawing”
note. Insert his head Into the ear and
dexterously extract the ticks. These
birds always seem to have a good un
derstanding with the older aud more
experienced oxen, who will, at a hint
from one of them, lie down and place
themselves In the most favorable posi
tion for the extraction of their para
sites—Stark’s Birds of South Africa.
The neat Age For Men to Marry,
Edward Bok, writing In The Ladies’
Home Journal on “A Boy For a Hus
band,” contends that “no young man
under 25 years of ago Is in any sense
competent to take unto himself a wife.
Before that age he is simply a boy who 1
has absolutely nothing which he can
offer to a f 1 as a safe fundation for:
life happiness. lie Is unformed in his
character, unsettled In his ideus, ab
solutely ignorant of the first essentials
of what consideration or lore for a 1
woman means. He doesn’t know him
self, let alone knowing a woman. He
Is full of fancies, and It Is his boyish
nature to tilt from one fancy to an
other.
“He Is incapable of the affection up
on which love is based, because he has
not lived long enough to know what
the feeling or even the word means.
He Is full of theories, each one of
which, when he comes to put It Into
practice, will fall. He Is a boy pure
and simple, passing through that try
ing period through which every boy
must pass before he becomes a man.
But that period Is not the marrying
time. For as his opinions of life are
to change, so are his fancies of the
girl he esteems as the only girl In the
world to make him happy. The man
of 30 rarely weds the girl whom ho
fancied when he was 20.”
A Freak of lilKlitntnff.
Lightning performed a strange feat,
near Osceola, Pa., during the recent
thunderstorm, says the Oil City Der
rick. Three fine cows belonging to a
farmer had been turned out to pasture
In a field on which the new grass Is al
ready quite high, and when the shower
came on they gathered together In one
corner under some trees. There is a
wire fence running close by the spot
where they were standing, and a bolt
of lightning was attracted to It and ran
along the slender wires until the cows
were reached, when it glanced off,
striking the animals and killing all
three instantly.
A T-ivelve Hour Dinner.
They dined well. If not wisely, In the
old days described by Sir Algernon
West la his “Recollections.” He says:
"Thanks to the Introduction of smok
ing after dinner, wine drinking Is now
over. What it was In old days ap
pears most incredible. The late Lord
Clanwilllam told me of one occasion
when he had dined at a friend’s villa
near Putney. The dinner was extraor
dlnarily late for those days—at 8
o’clock.
“When they at last rose from the
table and went up to their rooms. Lord
Clanwilllam flung open his window
and saw the haymakers coming Into
the field.
“ ‘I wonder/ he thought, ‘what hour
they begin work.’ And on consulting
his watch he found It was B:3o—the
haymaker* were returning to work
from their breakfast.”—New York

‘INTERPRETATION.
- We long for it peace that is lasting.
We plead for a rapture that'a rare,
Like fishermen ceaselessly casting
Their nets in tho gulf of despair. , ’
We draw from deep waters of sorrow
Dark wrecks of old failure aud fear.
And out of sea silence we borrow
The storm that will never come near.
Faith speeds past the footsteps of duty
And halts at the door of a tomb;
Thought pierces the source of all beauty
And retuma unto dust-'tis the doom
Of each man child to strive and to wonder.
To plan for some positive gain.
And only find mysteries under
All life, he it pleasure or pain.
Lo. in realms of the mind there is treasure
For toilers who dwell in content:'
There is truth that no science cun measure.
And the fearless are never forspent-
There is light when earth shadows are' falling.
There s reward for the deeds that are done
Where envy crowned virtues are calling
Ihroug’ faith is thy victory won!"

j CAR FARES IN GERMANY.
| T,le of Collection nail |„.
spection Prevents Free Hides.
Ihe chances of evading fat es on tho
I street caw of G r.’v. are v
j slight. When passenger steps on a
- oar, the conductor immediately asks
! where he Is going and then prepares
his ticket, which serves also as a re
ceipt for the fare. The preparation of
a ticket consists ouly In detaching it
from a block and punching it or mark
ing it with a pencil.
‘ This process Involves much more
work than the simple process of ring
ing up the fares, as conductors do In
America, but the task Is lightened by
the fact that- only a certain number of
persons are permitted to ride on a car
at the same time. The number of sit-
ting and standing places is plaiuly
marlted on each car. If a car is de
signed to carry 30 persons, no more
than 30 persons will be permitted on
that car it the same time. When any
thing In Germany is forbidden, it is
settled once for all.
In order that every person who rides
shall get the prescribed ticket inspect
ors are employed who spend their time
In ascertaining whether tho conductors
are doing their duty. Those Inspectors
step Into the cars and ask the passen
gers for their tickets. They note tho
number of the tickets nnd whether they
correspond with the stubs retained by
the conductor. The clerk who gives
out the blocks of tickets to the con
ductors notes the number of tbe upper
most ticket and at tbe return of each
block collects from the conductor who
returned It as many fares as there are
tickets detached.
The rate of faros varies from 2%
cents to 5, according to tho distance*
Small children are carried for one-half
fare, and any one for the sum of $2.50
may secure a ticket which entitles him
to ride as much as he wishes for oue
month. When a car is full, the con
ductor displays a placard bearing tho
word “Occupied.”—Chicago Record.
Wonderful Flail.
Assuming tliat we are walking on
the ocean bottom at the depth of over
a mile, we move cautiously along in
water icy cold and suddenly are con
fronted with a blaze of light and find
ourselves In a field of light givers.
Imagine a cornfield with stalks from
two to four feet in height, the tips
gleaming with light and waving gently
to and fro. Such an appearance the
Helds of umbellularia present.
Above this forest of living lights
strange and weird tisli are passing
which we recognize as forms that have
been dredged from great depths by the
Albatross, the Challenger and others.
One, the chlastnodou, dashes by emit
ting light from its own body, and, won
der of wonders! we see it seize a tisli
five times its own bulk and draw it
self over it like a glove. Its jaws by
a special arrangement separate, and
the mouth is a cavern of india rubber
like possibilities. A similar fish, mala
costens, is of a rich black velvet line,
and as it poises we see upon its head
two large lights. One emits a golden
light, the other throws out fitful green
rays which have some hidden mean
ing in the economy of nature. Some
of the fish seem to lie literal mouths.
Such Is the eurypharnyx, or pelican
fish. The mouth is enormous, the bones
of the Jaw being attached to the siniil
by movable Joints, so that it has enor
mous powers of distension. Professor
