-ROPES OF HUMAN HAIR.
9ne of Them Kept in the Great; Museum
of the Smithsonian Institution.
.1 In the thirteenth year of Meiji (1880)
Hiramatz Rei, High Priest of Japan
and chief dignitary at the Temple
Hon—zan, which is the principal tem-
ple in the Japanese Empire, decided to
rebuild a portion of the Hon-gwan-jti
Temple at Kioto, and after the man-
ner of priests and other religious lead-
ers in all countries, called upon the
faithful to aid in the enterprise.
Those to whom he and his subordin-
ate priests ministered," being devout
Buddhists, gave of that which they
had. Many gave gold and silver, and
others, which to Americans will seem
strange, gave of the hair from their
heads.
Immense quantities of hair were
given. They were sent to Hiramatz
Rei from eight provinces of Japan, and
were considered the most sacred of all
the gifts that were received for the
construction of the temple, it being a
great sacrifice for a follower of Budd-
rha to part with his or her hair. Under
the direct-ion of the Buddhist priests
these gifts of hair were made into
ropes—ropes that could lift the heav-
iest timbers that were used in the re~
storation of the temple. So great was
the aggregate quantity of hair contri-
buted by the faithful that fifty—three
long lines of ropes were made of it. ,
These ropes, had they been placed end
to end, would have measured 9,972
feet, and their combined weight was
23,517 pounds.
During the rebuilding of the Hon-
gwan-ji Temple many foreigners tried
to get portions of these hair ropes, but
it was not until 1890 that the priests
could be prevailed upon to part with
any portion of these curious yet sacred
instruments which they were using in
there construction of their temple, and
then only would they part with a por-
tion of one of the ropes as a gift to the
American people.
When the priests of the Temple
Hong-wan—ji were asked for a piece of
one of the ropes they refused to part
with it, fearing that it would be pro-
faned by being in the hands of unbe-
lievers, but when Hiramatz Rei was
asked for it and was told that it would
be received by the American nation as
an especial gift, and, as such, kept in
its great museum the Smithsonian In-
stitution, he gave a piece of one of the
old ropes to the people of the United
States. The piece of rope was sent to
this country as quickly as possible af-
ter it had been prepared for shipment,
and is now in Washington. How
' many thousands of'hairs there are in it
no oneknows, and how many millions
upon millions of hairs there were in
the original 23,517 pounds of rope no
one can guess—New York Times.
Easter Eve Custom in Italy.
Travellers in Italy are able during
the last week of Lent to study the orig-
in of the spring cleaning. During
this time every nook and corner is
turned out by busy housewives, who
are “preparing for the Holy 'Water of
Easter Eve”—when every house of
high and low, rich and poor, must be
looking its best, and a table spread
with the viands for the Easter dinner.
including specially lamb and eggs.
For on that day the parish priest
knocks at every door, and, followed by
the whole family and servants, walks
through all the rooms, blessing the
house and sprinkling bed and board
with holy water. At the end of the
ceremony the Easter offering, pence or
pounds, according to the means of the
donor, is presented by the head of the
family, with the words “Christ is Risi-
en,” to which the priest replies, “Alle-
luia, He is risen indeed.”—Philadelphia
Ledger.
Clever Smoke Device.
The Japanese have a curious way of
clearing railroad tunnels of smoke and
gases. Each end of the tunnel is pro-
vided with a canvas curtain, hung at
the top so that when it is dropped it
covers the entire mouth of the tunnel.
When a. train enters the tunnel the
curtain at that end is dropped, and it
is kept down until the train leaves the
other end of the tunnel. The result is
that all the smoke and gases are car-
ried along with the train and forced
into the open air at the further end oi:
the tunnel. It is asserted that this
plunger action is so perfect that smoke
from an engine seldom reaches as far
- back as the middle of the train. Sci-
entific men are puzzled to account for
the succcess of the system—Boston
Budget. -
CURRENT HUMOR.
"We are mad,” exclaims the editor of
a. paper in the backwoods of Tennessee.
“Darn the people! How can they ex—
pect us, out here, twelve miles from a
railroad, twenty—five miles from a. riv-
er, millions of miles from heaven,
about two miles from the devil and
about two hundred yards from a. whis-
key shop to get out a lively newspaa
per! ”
“You was in the minstrel business,
wasn’t you, Mr. Marigold?” “Why, no,
Johnny. What makes you ask that?”
“Pa said that, if you could only be
corked up, you wouldn’t be such a. bad
sort of fellow.”Cleveland Plain Deal-
or.
Said the married man who likes to-
be sympathized with: “My wife is nev-
er happy unless she has a grievance."
“How happy she must be!” said the
pretty girl, and then the married man
grew strangely silent.-—Cincinnati E'n- ‘

SHE IS DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND.
A Little Girl Who Nearly Equals the Skill
of Helen Kellar.
Mrs. W. W. Rice is a widow living at
the little village of Wyatt, in Ellis
County, Tex. Her youngest child is
little Ruby. In the fall of 1889, when
Ruby was a little tot two years old,
that fearful plague, cerebro-spinal
meningitis, with the spotted fever ac-
became epidemic in.
the neighborhood of the Rice family.
IHer father, two brothers and herself
were stricken down, the father and
one of the sons soon dying with it.
Little Ruby lingered between life and
death for five weeks, when she began
a. slow recovery: Her illness left her
totally blind and deaf, and she has
never since been able to articulate.
In spite of her great misfortune,
Ruby is a bright, intelligent, and
pretty child.
Some of her performances are in-
deed remarkable. While The News
man Was present her sister handed her
a needle and spool of thread. The
child put both the end of the thread
and the eye of the needle in her mouth,
and, taking them out again, quickly
passed the thread through the needle’s
the needle with her tongue. Ruby
seems to be as fond of dolls as the
average little girl, and diSplays won-
derful skill in cutting out and making
dresses, aprons, capes, etc., for her
mimic «babies. She has a habit of in-
specting the trimming and style of cut
of the dresses of lady visitors, and she
shows great ingenuity in so cutting
and trimming her doll’s wardrobe.
Her sewing is not confined to her
fingers by any means. She is equally
expert with the sewing machine, and
is very fond of operating it.
. Ruby’s accomplishments do not stop
at plain sewing. Aft-er cutting and
sewing her doll’s clothes she also cuts
and works the buttonholes and sews
on the buttons. She is, for the most.
part, self-taught in these manipula—
tions. She keeps her clothes in her
own trunk, and does not --allow any one
else to put anything in it. Not long
ago her sister put some aprons in
Ruby’s trunk, but they were soon dis—
covered by rthe little miss and were
summarily cast upon the floor. Ruby,
while affectionate and amiable in dis-
position, is by no means devoid of
temper.
She sometimes goes into the fowl-
house—always at night—and catches
chickens, which she puts into a coop.
Next day, after amusing herself with
them a while, she turns them out. The
chickens do not seem to be afraid of
her. As may be supposed, little Ruby
is very much humored, and, as far as
possible, she is allowed to do just as
she pleases, and amuse herself as suits
her best—Galveston News.
NEST OF A JUG WASP.
And How a British Gunboat was Captur-
ed by One.
Sidney R. Riggin, collector of the port
of Crisfield, de., has a pretty orna—
ment in his home, which he found in
the woods. It is a nest made by “jug
wasps,” as they are called in this sec-
tion, from the striking resemblance
which their nests bear to a jug. This
nest is over a foot in length and about
a foot in diameter. W’illiam Riggin,
father of the collector, gives the fol-
lowing account of how a nest of these
wasps once captured a British gun-
boat:
“In 1812 a British gunboat was lying
near the shore of Matthews county,
Virginia. . A half-witted boy, who lived
in that vicinity, found a nest of these
paper makers one day, and, securely
plugged up the entrance with mud, he
cut the limb to which it adhered from
the tree and carried the trophy on
board to show it to the crew. The
curiosity of the crew was at once ex-
cited, and they wanted to know what
it was. ‘A humming-bird’s nest,’ said
the boy. ‘Don’t you hear them in—
side?’ The crew listened and could
hear the indignant wasps keeping up
a lively noise. The 'boy was invited
below, and, to show his good will,
made the boat a present of the nest,
cautioning the crew, however, not to
let the birds out then, as they would
follow him ashore. The crew waited
until the boy had gained the shore,
then they took out the plugs, and the
wasps at once proceeded to business.
They never stopped work until they
had made every one of the crew take
to the water. The crew of the gun-
boat searched all over Matthews
county for the boy, and. his fate would
have been sad indeed if they had cap—
tured him.”—Correspondent of Balti-
more Sun.

(“THE E VENIN (ii-GAZETTE
CRUSADE OF SIX AMERICAN GIRLS.
the MacGowau slate” frying- to Abolish
I'nut. l’-in..Inf_.; ill China.
A strong effort is being made to
abolish 't’oot binding in China. The
is; .lers c: the movement, says the Bal-
timore Sun, are the six daughters of
an Amoritan missionary, James Mac-
Uowan. ..
The crushing of the Chinese girl’s
foot begins in babyhood. As soon as
she begins to walk the foot is bound
up, and it is kept 5:1 bandages, in spite
of the pain to the victim, until it ceases
;o grow. 'lhen the bandages are re-
moved, and the woman is left, not to
live her life, but to stumble through
it. If she lives to be a hundred years
old every step is a pain. -
~These American-girls have started
their reform in the school where they
teach. Every Chinese girl who comes
into the school is asked to sign a
pledge never to let her feet be bound.
It takes a. great deal of talk to turn the
average Chinese girl against foot bind—
ing, which she has been taught to be-
lieve makes her a superior being. She
asks: “What matters a little pain or
inconvenience or even a great deal
when, by undergoing it, a girl can
possess the smallest feet in her vil—
lage and be considered an ideal
beauty?” And her question shows
that woman’s nature is the same the
world over and that it will out.
However, “no pledge, no education”
seems to be the motto of the MacGow-
an sisters. . If a girl refuses to sign
this pledge she may not enter the
school, and this is a disgrace as well
as a disappointment, for Chinese chil-
dren are beginning to show a de—
cided eagerness for American learning,
as they call it. When once the Chi-
nuese girl signs this pledge, and re—
frains from foot binding, she becomes
a strong convert, for she soon sees for
herself how much better off she is than
her crippledsister. After a girl is
converted she is made a missionary,
and has it drilled into her that the
highest ambition of her life should be
to teach others that foot binding should
be stamped out with all the force of the
feet that have been set free and are
as nature intended them to be.
The MacGowan girls have formed
what is known as the Anti-Foot Bind-
ind Society, and all the converts who
show a desire to work against foot
binding are enrolled as members and
rank in the society according to their
enthusiasm. Some go to neighboring
villages to preach the gospel of natural
sized feet; others go from house to
house spreading the new gospel and
urging Chinese mothers of girls to re-
frain from crippling their little ones.
If these from-house-to-house canvas-
sers find any children whose feet are
undergoing the crushing process they
reason with the parents, show them
the evil of it and do all in their power
to get them to unwind the bandages.
If they refuse the missionaries call
again and again, with the persistence
of a ward politician. If they yield and
the children’s feet are freed parents
and children-are urged to join the
Anti-Foot Binding Society and become
missionaries in their turn.
The latest plan of the MacGowan
sisters is to attack the evil at its root,
by bringing the question before the
Chinese Court, and seeking to obtain
royal support, and, if possible, a. royal
decree making foot binding an offence.
Others have tried to do this and fail-
ed, but these plucky.'American girls
believe they will succeed.
TINY STANDS, BIG RENT.
- It: Costs a Large Sum of llIoney to Sell
Cigars in Hotels.
In all likelihood not one man in five
hundred .10 buys his cigars at the
little two—by-four stand in the lobby of
some first—class Chicago hotel has the
faintest idea of the rent that the deal—
er pays for the privilege.
A man who had no cenception of the
business done, if asked to name a prob-
able figure, might guess anywhere from
$300 to $1,000. The fact is that the
rents range from $5,000 to $12,000, and
in New York there are two stands in
hotel lobbies that pay a rental of $15,~
000 a year.
It would seem that selling smokes in
the lobby of a hotel was an expensive
luxury. According to some of the lar-
gest tobacconists in the city there is
little margin in $12,000 yearly.
At the Auditorium there are four
stands owned by one man, who pays
probably, close to $10,000. The Palm—
er House receives, perhaps, $8,000 to
$9,000, and the other hotels other
amounts down to $5,000, the lowest
figure accepted by any of the best
hotels.
These stands do a business that
ranges from $100 to perhaps, at the out-
side, $300 a day. X'Vhen help, short-
age and one sort of expense and anoth-‘
or is considered, it is apparent that
there is no vast profit in hotel cigar
stands with the tobacco market in its
present condition—Chicago Journal.

P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, Saves
a Man From Becomlsg'a Cripple.
r. Asa lurmons, a. well-known
zen of Jacksonville, Florida. was
ctcd by a terrible ulcer. Medical
seemed unavailing in stopping the
ges of the terrible disease. The
was swollen and intensely painful,
the ulcer had eaten its way down
0 the very bone. All medicines and

cure, the doctors said the leg must
come off. Just when it seemed that
Mr. Ammons would become a disabled
and a crippled man. he tried P. P. P.,
Lippman‘s Great. Remedy, and the re-
sult was wonderful.

below my knee, and my foot was
swollen and inflamed. The bone was
swollen and painful, and discharged a

said I had necrosis of the bone, and
my leg would have to come off. At
this stage I commenced to take P. P. P.
and to bathe my leg with hot. castile
soap suds. It. began to improve at
once and healed rapidly, and is to-day
a. sound and useful leg.
