A chow ESCAPE!

How it Happened.

The following remarkable event in a lady's
life will interest the reader: “For a long time I
had a terrible pain at my heart, which flut-
tered almost incessantly. I had no appetite
and could not sleep. I would» be compelled
to sit up in bed an belch gas from my stom-
ach until I thought every minute would~be
my last. There was a. feeling of Oppression
about my heart, and I was: afraid to draw a
full breath. ,I couldn't sweep a room with-
out sitting . down and resting; but, thank

od. by the help of New Heart Cure all that
is past and I feel like another woman; Be-
fore using the New Heart Cure I had taken
different so-called remedies and been treated
benefit until I was
both discouraged and isgusted. M husband
bought me a ttle of Dr. Miles’ ew Heart
Cure, and am y to say I never regretted
it, as I now have a s lendid ap tite and
sleep well. I weighed pounds w en I be-
gan taking the remedy, and now I weigh 130%.

ts effect in my case has been trulymarvel-
ous. It far surpasses any other medicine I,
have ever taken :or any benefit I ever re-'
icians.”—Mrs. Harry Starr,
Pottsville, Pa., ctober 12, 1892. .

Now or “’hv-n‘.’
On the wall of an anciz. :1 rains fer,
In a rare old English tor. a,
From one of its outer towers
A dial looketh down.
Whereon appears a legend,
, And thousands of passing men ._
Have read in the centuries olden
Its warning—"Now or When?"

Still dwellers within the city,
And strangers from lands afar,
As they con the striking motto,
Fore’er exhorted are—-
Be it morn or noon or even-—
By those words none fail to ken
The present is yours; that only
Is certain—“N ow or When?"

That others who ne’er in person
May the dial quaint behold
Shall yet its message ponder:
Its story here is told. ,
Hast thou aught thou wouldst accomplish
By deed or voice or pen?
This moment is thine; no other
Art thou promised—“N ow or When?’
—Rev. Philip B. Strong, in Golden Days.

 

An Undiscournged Farmer.

I met a jolly farmer in a lovely western vale,

A man of fertile fancy that was never known
to fail, .

Who, when I told of hailstones seven ounces
full in weight,

Said he had seen twelve-ounce ones back in
eighteen sixtyreight.

And when I spoke of fish I’d caught, in certain
foreign rills, ‘

That measured twenty-seven feet from narra-
tive to gills,

He said, with brow unruiiied and a manner
frank and free,

That he had caught them twice as long in
eighteen sixty-three.

And then I spoke of having met a'fellow in Ber
lin .

Whose mouth was large enough to get three
large potatoes in: ,

,Whereupon he wished 'Jim Hankinson—his
cousin—was alive:

He’d seen him hold six apples in his mouth in

~ sixty-five. ~

It seemed to make no odds to him how I'd ex-
aggerate: '

He’d always .go one better: so I thought that
I’d narrate

Samson slay
Ten thousand of his foemen—just to see what
he would say. .

He listened most intently, with an ever-broad-
‘ ening smile,
As though he were a person that had never .
‘ heard of guiie: ‘
And. when I'd done, he told me that he knew
my tale was true,
For Samson's self had told it him in eighteen
sixty-two. .
. —Harper's Bazar. .

 

Love and Hard Times.
I said: “The times are hard, and bread is dear
when work is not,
And sad, indeed. is poverty, and lonely is its

lot;
And 'faint the gleam of silver is, and far the
gleam of gold:
The chilly winds are blowing. but the hearth at
" home is cold. "

Then one climbed up and twined her arms—her
little arms, so white!

Around my neck. and softly said: "I love papa
tonight!" 4

And as she cuddled close to me—the Winsome
little witch!—

The times were hard no longer. for her love had
made me rich!
—Frank L. Stanton, in Atlanta Constitution.

 

The Dinner Born.
When I hear the dinner horn.
Ain‘t I glad that I wuz born?
0h, thet holler footie-too,
How it thrills a teller through!

‘

Talk about yer simphunnies,
Now, I tell y’ what it is,

Angels’ harps don’t stand a show
When that horn begins to blow.

Don’t I quit the pesky plow
Kind 0' mighty suddin. now,
When I hear the welcome sound
Echoin' from the woods around!

Gosh! them burstin' 'taters sweet,
Jes’ like warmed-up snow to eat!
And them fritters thick and brown-
Feller hates to let ’em down!

Get up, Sorrel! seems ez though
Hosses' walk is mighty slow.
Hi. thar, boys! quit droppin’ corn—
Don't ye hear the dinner horn?

A Philosopher and His Family.
His mind was in a perpetual spasm
About the cause of protoplasm, >
And W’en ’twas Caused he longed to know
Jest what it was that made it grow.

He longed to know just what it was,
The cause behind the primal cause.

Just what was Chaos made of, and
Upon what ground did Chaos stand?
He wished to know what it could be
When in the shape of nebular

And what was nature’s underpinning
'Fore it began in the beginning?

. He longed to know how it began,
The much-debated Fall of Man,
What language Eden’s old snake talked?
And if upon its tail it walked? '
And if we’d landed high an' dry
Had Eve’s old apple hung too high!
a.memo find some one totell
0f the “lost tribes 0: Israel."

. And ’twas the problem of his life -
To find out who. was old Cain’s wife,
And just how much the world would gain
Had‘Abel lived, instead 'of Cain. ,

But his coarse neighbors wished to know
Hdw his poor old wife could sew

Enough to buy him clothes and food

And feed seven children—hungry brood.

They were dull-minded creatures, to
This simple thing they longed to know.
-Sain Walter Foss. in Boston Globe.

9 BANDIT OF THE' CAMPAGNA.

 

Love and Defies Capture.

Italy at present is more occupied
than evervby the exploits of the far-
famed Tiburzi, who has for a consider-
able period terrorized with impunity
on the borders of ‘2 Etruria and the
Roman Campagn'a, and whose authori-
ty there has possibly had more weight
than that of King Humbert himself.

other inhabitants, numbering alto-
gether two hundred and fifty souls,
have been arrested and imprisoned as
his abettors, and are now being tried
in batches of twenty-five at a time at
Viterboy —The ,calendar' of assize re-
lating to the two hundred and fiftyac-
cused will extend to four series of
trials, the first of which has just term-
inated in various sentences ' of im-
prisonment and fines. The remaining
three series will be taken in turns
shortly at specified times;

Tiburzi himself, who is still free and

laughs at the efforts of 'the carbineers
to capture him, has been assisted in his
numerous raids by a small and devoted
band of followers, who have almost all
disappeared, one after the other, hav-
ing either been killed in pitched battle
with the carbineers, or secured, tried
and executed. or sent to the galleys.
He has now but one solitary follower—
his faithful lieutenant—who devotedly
helps him to rule the district, Whose
inhabitants either wink at or favor his
misdeeds. A price of four hundred
pounds has been set on his head, and
he takes his revenge in killing as many
of the king’s soldiers as he possibly
can.
‘ The country-folk for thirty miles
round act as his scouts; they warn him
if the carbineers are in sight; they
shelter him and supply him‘ with food;
and if questioned as to. his where-
abouts. they affirm that they have seen
him take to the left as fast as his heels
will carry him, when in fact he is dis-
appearing leisurely and unconcernedly
to the right. It is said that the fair
sex especially show great ingenuity in
devising elaborate plans for his escape;
while in due course of time, and leisure
permitting, he repays the obligation
by making them some nice presents
and showing them much flattering at-
tention.

Tiburzi’s happy hunting ground is
known as the Macchia. It isawide-
spreading tract of land, over-grown
here and there with extensive patches
of thick underwood—a kind of treeless
forest, but nevertheless impenetrable
to anyone except Tiburzi, who knows
every turn and corner of it, and where
he obtains the willing assistance of
shepherds, who supply him with pro-
visions when he has to remain there in
hiding sometimes for several days to-
gether. Any" gendarme who, feels s‘ufii-
ciently courageous to venture within
the limits of this fastness‘in the delu-
sive hope of capturing the brigand is
sure to be awarded with a. rifle-ball for
his pains. Tiburzi leads the life of a
grand seigneur, provides for his par-
ents, travels first-class incOgnito to
Rome and frequents the theaters.

During the summer in 1889 the auo
thorities determined to surround the
Macchia and capture Tiburzi, dead or
alive. A cordon of gendarmes formed
a circle, and a body of carbineers pene-
trated the underwood. In the sur-
rounding villages the inhabitants all
agreed that he had been seen at various
spotsearly the day before the expedi-

and indications; and all the time
Tiburzi was in Paris, spending his days
pleasantly at the exposition. That he
is liberal, and even generous, to all who
afford him assistance in evading pur-
suit and capture is only to state what
is perfectly true. He robs strangers
only, or those whom he thinks are rich
enough to pay for immunity from his
attacks. Therein lies the secret of his
safety; for What interest can the poor
country folk who beheflt by his gen-
erosity have in betraying him? This,
indeed, is the kind of mediceval moral-
ity still extant in many Italian rural
districts.

“If,” said one of the accused to the
presiding judge during the recent trial
“your police arrangements were more
perfect, we should probably not have
to compound with Tiburzi.” The wit-
ness proved that he could not help as-
sisting him to escape, and was acquit-
ted. ‘ And now during the interreg'nnm
of trial, while the second batch of
prisoners are waiting their turn, a
moving column of carbineers is beating
up the Macchia and its hiding places
in the hOpe of successfully tracking this
daring bandit, but it is ten to one that
he is not to be found amid the solitudes
between Viterbo and Civita Vecchia,
for anxious as he may be to escape
from the king’s troops, he is still more
anxious to avoid the malaria which at
this season of the year is at its worst
in that locality. The probability is
that during .this exceptionally hot
weather Tiburzi is either taking it
easy in some secluded villa in the
vicinity of the lake of Como or won.
iering peaceably in Switzerland from
one summer resort to another.-—St.
James Gazette. -_

The “Ear of Dionysius.”

A cunningly constructed prison
cavern, consigting of a large chamber
, connected with one of smaller dimen-
sions, situated near Syracuse, Italy,
has gone into legendary history with
the title of the “Ear of Dionysius."
The smaller chamber was unknown to
the prisoners kept in this underground
dungeon, and the tyrant by whose
name it is known had a habit
of secreting himself there to
listen to the conversation of the con-.'
viets, who were mostly political of-
fenders. An

:GERMANY’S IRON‘ TREASURES. \

 

mi. Storesorhrmy nations and none, in
Readiness for War.
In the fortress of 'Spandau there is

' - stored the celebrated emergency fund

of the German empire—the so-called

iron treasure, millions of silver pieces, ‘

most of them minted with the head of
Napoleon III. Derived from that co-
lossal indemnity which victorious Ger-
many imposed upon humbled France
in the hope of permanently crippling
the hereditary foe, the payment of
which and recuperation of its loss is
the financial wonder of the world, this
board of coined money is kept for the
contingency of war. This treasure is
sacred. There is no crisis through
which the German empire may pass,
save that of foreign war, which makes
this vast sum available. The Germans
are very fond of the word “iron” in
its sense of rude firmness, of harsh en-
durance, of severe tenacity. They

have applied it to their greatest his— .

torical character—the ironchancellor.
——to his policy of absolute inflexibility
and to their mest-prized reward—the
iron cross—of which there is but one

degree, and which can beearned only ‘

by actual bravery on the field. They
have used the word to designate the
treasure at Spandau, and they have
also adopted it to characterize an insti-
tution in their minute and comprehen-
sive scheme of military organization,
to which they attach great importance.
When the German army is transferre...
from a huge reserve of precautionary
power into a massive instrument of
aggressive force, its units, the individ-
ual soldiers, are put into absolutely
new uniforms. The~ purposes of this
step are numerous. It makes the opera-
tion of mobilization more simple and
systematic, and with the contingency
of prolonged warfare it makes the con-
tinuance of military operations more
economical. There is a sentimental
issue involved—the personal pride of
the soldier is stimulated and his zeal in
service increased. ”

In equipment and accountermenta
similar system is followed. The re-
sult is that the soldier starts out in the
condition practically that he should be
theoretically. His equipment is a
heavy one, but the knowledge that
every pound of weight he carries repre-
sents something useful to his occupa-
tion and his comfort and convenience
while engaged in lightens his load.
He realizes that he is provided for
every emergency. In his knapsack
are his clothes and his store of
cartridges. Each one of his pockets
has particular purpose. The lining of
the one on the left of his tunic is med-
ically prepared, to be used when neces-
sity arises as an antiseptic bandage.
In his haversack {is his loaf of bread——
the stafi of life—and the {so-called
“iron ration.” This is the institution
to which reference has been made. It
is the reserve fund of the soldier’s food,
his sustenance when deprived of all
otherh'esources of mess, commissariat
and forage. There is a huge factory in
Mayence devoted to the packing of
these “iron rations.” In' small bags,
in a preserved and compressed shape,
these rations consist of Coffee, rice,
hard tack'and tobacco, inquantity suf-
ficient to provide for three days’ use.
The \‘cavalry receives in addition
similarly prepared rations for its
horses, consisting of hay and oats suf-
ficient for five days.
to serve only in cases of extreme neces-
sity. They are sacred whenever the
trooper is provided by the commissary
department with the necessary food, or
when he can provide it by reduisition
or forge. The “iron ration” can not be
touched except by command of a su-
perior officer. In the preparation of
these rations chemical science has been
at work, and it is believed in the arti-
cles provided the greatest amount of
nutrition has been secured in the most
compressed and endurable shape. In
the grand maneuvers which annually
take place in Germany, and in which
the soldiers are exposed to every con-
tingency save that of an enemy’s death-
dealing powers, the “iron rations” are
carried, and their purpose made clear
to the men—St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

ANTARCTIC . PENGUENS.

 

' Strange Birds Found in_ the Neighborhooi
~ of the South Pole.

Penguins are the strangest creatures
ever seen. They are supremely funny
as they quack and strut about with
their padded feet over the snow, or,
coming to a slope, glide swiftly down-
ward toboggan-fashion upon their
breasts. If one lands on the piece oi
ice they are resting upon, they ap-
proach fearlessly with a threatening
“Quack! quack!” For their inquisitive-
ness they, too, often received
the handle of the club, for it
was soon found that their flesh greatly
resembled that of the hare, and upon
them we had many a tasty and sub-
stantial meal. The emperor penguin
is very difficult to kill; he will live
after his skull has been most hopelessly.
smashed; the best way to put. an end to
them is to pith them. Six of us one
day set out to capture one alive, and so
strong was the bird that five with dif-
ficulty kept their hold, and, after he
was bound with strong cords and nau-
tical knots, he flapped his flippers and
released himself—Popular Science
Monthly.

"Cow's.Foot-ln-tho-Ililk-Pall."
one of the curiosities of' reflected
light from a curved surface is the
“caustic,’.’ popularly known as “the
cow’s-foot—in-the-milk-pail.” It is a

‘ well-known property of light that its

rays impinging upon a reflecting sur-
face are thrown ofi so. as to make the
angle between the reflected, rays and

. the normal cog-ml to that between the

incident rays and the normal. In con-
‘segpence of this law, when the rays of
any light which are practically parallel
are reflected from a curvedsurface the
intersections of the reflected rays take
