The British Friend reprints from the 11* x- ? i K I;.... tin. j^iiiuuue s a ciuij v/i n.v hair-breath escape of a "Steeple-Jack" in Lancaster, England. The mau had" been engaged in repairing the top of one of the tall chimneys which are common in the manufacturing districts of the north, and the repairs being completed, he proceeded to lower the scaffolding whereon he had been working. This he did piece by piece, by means of a rope, he himself remaining on the dizzy summit of the chimney. At length the last plank had been lowered, and the steeple-jack himself was preparing to descend, when, to his horror, and equally to that of the spectators below, his rope became detached and fell to the ground. The man's perilous position was at once evident. Resting on a narrow ledge a hundred feet above the ground, he had no apparent means of de-cent, nor was theie and way of assisting from below. The excitement quickly spread throughout the town, ana soon a large crowd had assembled. How long could he retain his dangerous position iu mid-air? Would he be overcome by vertigo, caused by fear, and fall headlong 10 the ground? Such were the thoughts passing through the minds of the excited crowd of oulookers. .Some one oUggested that a kite should be flown with a cord attached to take up a rope, but no kite was available. The steeplejack was gesticulating as if beseeching assistance that those below were anxious yet powerless to render. A piteous shriek rent the air as a womau ran quickly into the crowd. "His mother !" was whispered from mouth to mouth. A deadly silence spread over the assembly, and all eyes were turned lowards the woman, who with a stony look of horror, was gazincr nniv'iirH nt hur won. Xiuldeillv her voice again rang I bough the air, sharp aud clear, amid the pervading silence. "Unravel tha stookiu'!" she cried out; "Tom, ma.dear, unravel tha stockin'!" It wasa flash of inspiration. Wise men had been vainly endeavoring to devise a means of rescue, but it was left for the poor woman who had knitted the stockings that he wore to find the way to save him. A hearty cheer burst fom the crowd when this was recognized, and soou it was seen that the steeple-jack hail taken oil" one of his stockings and was unpicking the stitches. It was a long process but at last it . wasflnished, anu another cheer burst forth as the woolen thread floated lightly to the ground. Thin twine was in readiness, and this was affixed the woollen filament to be drawn up by the man above. Then a stout string was fastened to the twine; and . this being drawn up too, a cord was fastened to the string, and, finally, a rope to the cord. The steeple-jack ibis time fixed the rope firmly on the chimucy, and, to the joy of ihe multitude' they saw him dascend in safety^ i. lie mea inai ocuurreu u? me nioiiier, to tell her son to unravel his stocking, iu spoken of as "u Hush of inspiration." And so it may really have been. For I have 110 doubt that lie, whose tender mercies are oyer all his works, dots at time put into the mind of man the fitting thought, as well as the high resolve, in the needful time. Mujestic Palms. The talipot, or great fan-plam, grows for about thirty years, and reaches a height of more than a hundred feet. Then, for the first and only tiim, it blossoms. What looks like a single huge bud four feet in height is (level- , oped and finally bursts into a pwumid 1 of snowy plumes com posed of numberless small creamcolored flowers. The cluster is sometimes twenty-five feet high, and ut its ba&e has a diameter of forty feet. As Miss Gumming says, ill her "Two Happy Years in Ceylon," "It is a glorious object, and is visible from an immense distance, as it ofen grows among flat surroundings, such as rice fields." The natives turn the leaves to a thousand uses, domestic arid literary. When on a journey, and especially if they tre on a pilgrimage to some sacred shrine, each of them carries a portion of one of these great leaves tightly folded into a long, narrow form, like a gigantic closed fan. This serves as a sunshade or raincloak by day, and at night several friends contribute every man his palm-leaf, three or four of them, with the pointed end upward, forming a i very fair bell-shaped tent. And very picturesque a few groups of these tents ] iook wiieu pucneu in some roresi giaue round blazing camp-fires. Formerly the exact grade of every noble was shown by the number of such sun-shades which he was entitled to have carried before him, and on j state occasions a leaf, inlaid with pieces of glittering tale, and folded like a huge fan, formed the ceremonial 1 canopy which was held above his head by one or more attendants. The leaves attain their largest size when the tree is about twenty years of age, at which time they sometimes measure fwenty-five feet from the base of the leaf-stalk to the outer edge of the fan. Apples as a Medicine.?Chemically the apple is composed of vegatahle fibre,albumen, sugar, gum, chlorophyll, malic acid, gallic acid, lime and much water. Furthermore, the German analysts say that ihe apple contains a larger percentage of phosphorous is admirably adapted for renewing the essential nervous matter, j lethicin. of the brain and spinal cord. ; it is, perhaps, for the same reason rude- < ly understood that old Scadinavian tra- 1 ditions represented the apple as the : food of the god's who, when they felt i themselves to be irrowinsr feeble and in- 1 firm, resorted to this fruit for renewing , their powers of mind and body. Also, ; the acids of the apple are of signal use for men of sendeutary habits whose livers are sluggish in action, these ac- ' ids serving to eliminate from the body ' noxious matters, which, if retained, would make the brain heavy and dull, or bring about jaundice or skin eruptious.?London Hospital. ^ The mati who spends his life in "getting even" for real or supposed injuries, is a torment to himself, and,' generally a bore to his friends.
