[,fi' BIDDY’S CLOTHESPIN LEG.

1 An Interesting Demonstration Concerning

Heredity 1n the 0vlpara.

“If there is one thing I despise more
than another,” remarked a gentleman
the other day, “it is a man who does not
regard the truth with sacred awe. I
notice that the local papers are full of
big egg, big pumpkin and other stories
of that sort that have little real merit
in them, and I. fear that some ,of them
do not even have the redeeming virtue
of being strictly true. I believe they
are exaggerated. Now, I have a story
for you that is not only a good one, but
it is true. What does a story amount to
if it is not true? Any fool can make up
a lie. I hate a liar. Here is my story:

“I was down in Indiana county the
other day and stopped at a farmhouse
for dinner. After dinner I sat down on
the porch to take a smoke. I saw an
old hen hobbling about in a very awk»
ward way, and I said to the farmer’s
wife:

“ ‘Madam, what is the matter with

that hen ?’

“ ‘That hen,’ said she, ‘is lame. It has
an artificial leg.’

“‘Oh, it has, has it ?’

“ ‘Yes. You know there was some
very cold weather last winter, and one
night the hen froze her leg off. I pitied

her. I unrsed her and 'doctored her up
and she finally got well. But she
couldn’t walk on one leg. So I just

stuck a Clothespin on the stump of her
leg, tied a string around it to hold it 011
and she does very well with it.’

“ ‘Well, well,’ I said, ‘if that isn’t
st1 angel’

“ ‘Yes,’ replied the good lady, with a
smile, ‘but that isn’t the strangest pa1t
of it.’

‘6 6N0 ?!

“ ‘No, indeed! The strange part of it.
happened afterward, and one would
scarcely believe it if one hadn’t seen it
with one's own eyes. This spring that
hen with the clothespin log wanted to
hatch. I didn’t think she could. ’Frald
she’ (I break the eggs with her stump.
But I kind 0’ pitiedb her, ’cause she was
a cripple, and I put 13 eggs under her.
She stuck right to her business for three
weeks and never broke an egg~hatched
out every chicken.’

“ ‘Well,’ I said, ‘that is not so remark-
able.’

“ ‘No,’ replied the woman, ,‘that was
not so very odd, but that isn’t it. The
funny part of it was that every one of

those little chickens had a wooden 4

leg.’ ”—Punxsutawney Spirit.
POPULAR MELODIES IN CHURCH

“Wearing of the Green" Played During a
Recent Service at Washington.

An incident which, if it had occurred
at the middle of the services, might
have resulted disastrously, caused con-
siderable amusement at one of the
Catholic churches on a recent Sunday.
The service was an especially attractive
one, and elaborate musical numbers
had been 'prepared. The choir was as-
sisted by a string orchestra, with a par-
ticularly lusty trombone. There was a
sermon by an eloquent priest, and the
services were carried out without a
hitch until the very last. All those at
the altar arranged themselves in readi-
ness for the recessional.

The choir leader raised his baton, de-
scribed a grand flourish in the air and
a grand burst of harmony burst forth
from the orchestra. But instead of :1
sacred march it was “The Wearing of
the Green.” Its merry and frivolous
strains peeled louder and louder, and
the checks of the fat trombonist puffed
Vvider and wider. But the effect! There
was a scurrying among the choir sing-
ers to get out of the organ loft. There
was an immediately noticeable hitch-
ing into step of the superficially solemn
altar boys, and the holy fathers exerted
all the muscles of their faces to retain
a proper decorum of countenance.

They didn’t succeed altogether, for a
broad smile was on the face of more
than one as he disappeared from sight.
But the orchestra played blissfully on.
It changed from the Irish melody to an-
other popular air, and nobody knows
but what they might have drifted into
a skirt dance or “The Sunshine of Par-
adise Alley” had not the last of the
priestly procession disappeared as
quickly as possible within the sacristy
doors. It is safe to say that that 01'-
chestra will find difficulty in getting an-
other job to play sacred music—Wash-
ington Post.

ORIGIN OF \THE FEMALE.

Tradition of Cheyennes and Arapahoes
Gives Women the Interior Position.

Among the many interesting tradi-
tions that have recently been brought
to light by a man who has been making
a careful study of the legends and folk-
lore of the Cheyenne and .Arapahoe In—
dians of Indian territory is one that ac-
counts in a singular way for the origin
of woman. The Indians of these tribes
sniff disdainfully at the “rib theory”
Vvhen the resident missionaries. try to
teach them the initial lessons of the Old
Testament regarding their first par-
cuts.

The wise men of their tribes wrestled
with the fundamental facts of the crea-
tion long ago, and evolved theories con-
cerning it which with the lapse of time
have come to be looked upon by the In-
dians of to-day'as histOrical truths. It
is little wonder that the Cheyenne and
Arapahoe braves look down upon their
women as inferior beings, in view of
their supposed origin.

The legend says that originally all
men were created with,long, sleek and
co‘mely tails. These tails were their de-
light, and they adorned them with paint,
beads and wampum. Then the world
was at peace, wars and discord were un-
known. Men became prosperous and
proud, forgot their Maker and became
envious and quarrelsome. Their Maker
became displeased with them and sent
a scourge'upon them to teach them hu-
mil1ty and make them realize their de-
pendence upon the Great Spirit. He am-
putated their tails, and out of these
beautiful members fashioned women.

AIDS TO MEMORY.

They Are Oftener a Detrlment Than of'
Any Real Value.

As to the o'rdina1y loss of memory
p1oduccd by advancing yea1 s, it is
strange how proper names are always
the first to go; even those of our inti-
mate friends often temporarily vanish
—-which, when we are' about to intro-
duce them to strangers, is rather on -
barrassing. Next to them, to judge
from n1 y own experience, are synonyms.
This is inconvenient in literary com-
position, and necessitates the frequent
use of the “Thes..urus,’ writes James
Payn in t .1e Illustrated London‘ 1' cws.
What is Very unfortunate, this only
makes matters worse, for there is 110th—
ing more certain than that the constant
use of helps to memOry causes its lie-
struction. By constantly referring 1)
a “ready reekoner” persons have been
known to have destroyed all power of
calculation. On the other hand. noth-
ing so strengthen: the memory as the
exercise of it, and when this is not 111—
termit-ted, but kept up as in youth, we
find that, as in the late Mr. Brandram's
case, old age is no bar to the most per-
fect recollection. Indeed, it. I is
probable, as Sydney Smith observes,
that the decay of memory in old men
probably proceeds as frequently from
the very little interest they take in
what is passing around them as from
any mental decay. Sir Benjamin Brodie
held the same opinion: “The old 1111111
is not. stimulated by ambition as when
he felt that he had many years of life
before him. He has probably with—
drawn from his former pursuits, and
has substituted no others for them, and
we know that the mind; as well as the
body, requires constant exercise to keep
it in a healthy state.”

The New Woman Is Largely in Evidence
in the Flowery Kingdom.

During a description of the woman of
Japan a correspondent of the St. Louis
Dispatch says:

The girls’ middle schools are like our
public day schools. The education
given is excellent and quite up to all
modern requirements, while at the
same time the characteristic elelncnts
of a Japanese lady 5 education are 111c-
served.

The traditional accomplishments of
a Japanese lady were, however, not for-
gotten, and there were rooms set apart
for giving instructions in the. arrange-
ment of flowers. the details of the tea
ceremony, and in playing the. goto.
\Vithout proficiency in these three ac—
complishment-s no Japanese lady is
thought to be completely educated.

The technical and the industrial schools
for girls in Japan are admirable insti-
tutions. One of the most interesting
girls’ schools is undoubtedly the school
for peeresscs at Tokio. In this the em-
press takes the kecncst interest: she
visits the school every week, and knows
all the girls by name. The students are
daughters of the “daimios” and noble-
men. If the empress had not herself
taken the lead in the movementfor the
higher education of the women of the
noble classes it is doubtful if Japanese
noblemen would have consented to send
their girls to a. public day school; 11:: t
they do so is p roof of the earnestnr as
with which ti 0 Japanese have adopLd
modern western education.

RARE DOLLARS OF I804.

The Die Was Made But None Were
Coined Till the Year 1856.

I was talking to awell-known numis-
matic the other day about the dollar of
1804, for good specimens of which such
fabulous prices are paid by collectors,
and he gave me some interesting infor-
mation, says a Washington correspon-
dent of the New York Commercial Ad-
vertiser. The reason the dollars of 1804

of that denomination in circulation.
In 1803, as is always done, the dies were
made for the succeeding year, but none
were coined until 1856, when Director
Pollock of the mint found the old die
of 1804 at Philadelphia, and in order

to exchange with numismatics. How
many were struck off is not known,
but one of these belonging to ex-

dollars coined around the rim of the
coin was cut the words: “Unit, one
hundred cents.” This is termed the
“collar” by numismatics, and there is
no collar upon these restrikes. Hence,
it is useless to look among the old dol-
lars that were in circulation for one

 

bearing the date of 1804.
