The next ; morning she found the specks were nothing less than the ends‘ of countless black hairs that went on growing until they formed a heavy black beard.

Soon after Jim’s admission as a learned counsellor, an old neighbor to give him a start gave him a lot of hard _ claims to collect, telling him he could have half that was collected. Jim soon received half that was due from one of the debtors and was called on a little later by his client for his share of the money. “Your half,” said the astute lawyer. “I didn’t collect your half. I only collected mine.” The astonished old patron said, “Why, Jim, I don’t understand such proceeding.’ But the lofty rgly was, “There is a heap of law you don’ t understand. I tell you, old fellow this law is a powerful thing.”—Case and Comment. The Lightest Known Solid. - The lightest known solid is said to be the pith of the sunflower, with a specific gravity of .028, or about one- 'cighth that of cork. The sunflower is extensively cultivated in central Rus- sia, and various uses are served by its different parts, the recent discovery of the lightness of the pith essentially in- creasing,the commercial value oLthe plant. For life-saving appliances at sea, cork has a bu‘oyancy of one to five, while with the sunflower pith one to thirty-five is attained.

Lord Armstrong, of England, has succeeded in accomplsihing something that scientists have tried in vain to do for years—that is to photograph an electric spark. It was done by placing a camera and a. powerful electric ma- chine in a darkened room. There was a plate in the camera cover- ed with a light fine powder, which, when ,the spark was dis- charged, would be drivenabout by the electric streams and _the electricity would thus give the lumin‘ou-sity whic. would enable it to be caught in the act of setting the dust in motion. The photographs taken by Lord no such thing as electric fluid. Elec- tricity is a v01tex movement, like the smoke-rings which the smoker blows from his mouth. That is, electricity moves round and round the "circumfer- ence of a. ring, being sucked in by one face of the ring and shot out by the other. One of the photographs taken by 'Lord Armstrong shows the electric cur- rent when two opposite discharging poles are brought near one another. This shows a marked difference be- tween the current at the positive and negative poles—New York World. BETTER THAN LIGHTNING RODS. Leaves Are the Most Effective Conductor of Electrioty. The green leaf is the best conductor of electricity ‘ destructive of all the forces, of the earth. To guard our homes and pub- lic buildings from its destructive ac- ;ion, We erect our lightning rods, whose sharp points quietly drain the clouds, or, failing to do this, receive the dis- charge and bear it harmlessly to the earth. But ages before Franklin point- ed the first lightning rod to the storm, God has surrounded the dwellings of man with a protection far more effect- ual than this for since the creation of blade of grass have been-silently dis- arming the clouds of their destructive weapons.A twig covered with leaves, sharpened by Nature’s exquisite work- manship, is said to be three times as effectual as the metallic points of the best constructed rod. And when we re- flect how many thousands of these veg- etable points every large tree directs to the sky and consider what must be the efficacy of a single forest with its in— numerable leaves, or of a single mead— ow with its countless blades of grass, we see how abundant the protection from the storm ‘is,,and with what care Providence has guarded us from the destructive force—London Echo. TOO INSIGNIFICANT TO NOTICE. Amusing- “lay in Which a Goat Showed Its Contempt. While walking the streets some years since, says a writer in Current Litera- ture, my attention was attracted by a loud barking, and then by the sight of an immense Newfoundland dog which had attacked a very large goat. The goat stood“ strictly and warily on the defensive, and was evidently alarm- ed, though he bravely kept his ground, until the dog, remembering some other engagement, suddenly departed. No sooner had he started than a lit- tle whiffet of a dog that had been ~watching the scene with great interest from the other side of the street dashed furious across, and, to the extent of his ability, emulated the example of the Newfoundland. The goat surveyed him for an instant, then deliberately turn- lng his back, vigorous-1y butted an ad; iacent awningpole with an expression of great disgust. I did not hear what Mark Twain calls "biblical language, ” but no doubt the valiant warrior would have used it had he been capa- ble. A Cemetery Story front-Blaine. In a quaint old cemetery at Bass Har- bor, Me., lies an aged couple who were ioted in their life for their piety and their active interest in meetings and other good works. The old gentleman nihis exhortatlon would often speak of wearing the crown, while the old lady often spoke of blossoming as the rose. After the tombstones had been "erected at their graves with their names and ages duly chronicled thereon, there ap- oeared on his tombstone distinctly out- lined the figure of a crown, while on here appeared the figure of a full blown rose. The fact is well authenticated by many people who have visited the cem- stay on purpose to see this wonderful sight. —Deer Island Gazette. As He Said It.

Killing Rabbits for Their Fur. Out on the plains they are killing iack rabbits by the hundreds for the fur hat trade. The rabbits are so numerous on the Western Kansas plains that they can be scared up by the score simply by dragging over the sod a long wire that will brush the grasses. Behind this, as horses haul it forward, come the hunters, and they shoot the hares without mercy, filling the wagons by the end of the day.

It did not take me long to cover the curved stick with some pieces of material left from the gown and attach a ribbon and bow. and my customer was delighted. Wasn’t it a happy idea? Why, I never send a gown home now without a pretty waist holder to match, and I put sachet powder in the hangers to in- crease their attractiveness.

ORIGIN OF’THE CAKE WALK. Formerly a Marriage Ceremony but Its Significance Now Lost. The cake-walk prope. had its origin among the French negroes of Louis- iana more than a. century ago. There is little doubt that it is an offshoot of some of the old French country dances. It resembles several of them in form. From New Orleans it spread ove1 the enti1e South, and thence North. It was found of convenience to the plan- tation neg10.es ded by license, and it- was se dom that the services of a preacher were called in. At a cake-walk a than might le- gitimately show his preference for a woman, and thus publicly claim her _— for a wife. In effect the cake-walk was not different from the old Scotch marriage, whiCh required only public acknowledgment from the contracting parties. So this festival became in some sense a wooing, an acceptance or rejection and a ceremony. This ex- plains its popularity with the blacks, outside of its beauties, with the ac- companiment of music, which is com- petent at all times to command negro support. Cake-walking has improved, ,as do most things that are constantly practised. It has lost its old signifi- cance in the South. Negroes now get married, when they marry at all, in white folks fashion. It has become, however, a pantomime dance. Prop- erly performed, it is‘a beautiful one. The cake is not much of a prize, though the negro has a sweet tooth. —New Orleans Times-Democrat. HORSE WITH AN EYE FOR BUSINESS 01d Hector \Vouldn’t. Allow His Master’s sickness to Stop \Vork. :- A remarkable display of animal sag- acity was given recently in Kensing- ton by the horse driven by old Harry Pindle, an itinerant coal dealer. Harry has been a small dealer for years, and many a bucket of coal he sells to cus-' tomers of twenty years’ standing. Hec- tor, the old bay horse, has been owned. by Harry for several years, and, al- though he is old and lame, the animal serves his master well. Last week, while out with a load of coal, Harry was taken sick, and, leaving his six- year—old— grandson on the wagon, he went into a friend’s house to rest. Now, Hector evidently got tired of waiting, for when Harry, who had become very sick, came out with his friend to be driven home the team was gone. Late that afternoon the grandson came home with an empty wagon and ex- plained that Hector had gone over the regular route, and that the people who had been waiting for their coal came out and took what they wanted and paid for it. Harry became very ill and was confined to bed for over a week, but. the supply of coal never'stopped, as Harry’s oldest son would load the wagon before going to work and the team Would be sent in charge of the. little boy. It has been proven since that old Hector never missed a cus- tomer along the route, and he is now pointed out as a remarkable horse --—Phi ladelphia Record.
