PRESENCE OF MIND.

His Crazy Cooks.
A celebrated Scotch physician tells a
story of a madhouse doctor whose
presence of mind alone saved his life:
"A great friend of mine was for a
considerable time the medical superintendent
of a lunatic asylum near Glasgow.
"Ooe night in making Ms customary
rounds he bad occasion to visit the patients
in the kitchen, who were preparl'ig
the dinner. There were seven
of them, all big, sturdy fellows, who
.were heUeved to be harmless. The
< keeper only looked in upon them now
and feeling that his constant
presence was unnecessary.
The -doctor unlocked the tron barred
door of tbe kltcben and went In
among th^lunatics.
"There were five large boilers containing
scalding water ready for making
tbe day's dinner for the patients.
"One of tbe lunatics pointed at tbe
boilers full of hot water and, laying
his baud upon tbe doctor's shoulder,
said, 'Doctor, you'll make a fine pot
of broth.' And tbe words bad no sooner
been uttered than the other six madmen
shouted In a voice of delight,
'Just the thing,' and, seizing the doctor,
were In the very act of putting
him into one of the large boilers of
scalding water when the doctor had
the presence of mind to say, hut not a
second too soon:
" 'Capital broth! But !t would taste
better if I took my clothes off.'
"The madmen, with a yell of delight,
said Tes,' <i?> the doctor asked them
to wait a moment while he went and
rw-vl- hie nfP "Riifr aa ftfvm fla h?
got oct of the kitchen he turned the
key in the door and ordered the kee;> '
er to see to the lunatics being put under
restraint
'The doctor's presence of mind saved
him, it is true, from a terrible death,
? but he died shortly after raving mad.
The experience had destroyed his reason."
Origin of the Postal Card.
In 1S69, while Professor Emanuel
Herrmann of Vienna was seeking a
vast amount of information by correspondence
for his notable hook. "The
Guide to the Study of National Economy,"
the thought occurred to him
that many advantages would result
foom the adoption of a means of correspondence
cheaper than the sealed letter.
On Jan. 26 be went before the
Austrian poet director with his idea.
an open, stamped card, and his suggestion
was almost immediately adopted.
Within a month the Austrian postal
authorities printed and sold 1*000,000
postal cards and thus established this

I think it is near Gooc, where the
land slopes gently down to the river

fashioned into the cutest little jugs
you ever saw, holding about a pint
each, and the genuine Dutch mustard,
made only to that pocket borough, according
to a secret process handed
down for many generations, is hermetically
sealed therein. It will keep for
years and is as delicious as the finest
confection. It is batter, cheese and
condiment to the Hollanders who can
afford it And there is no other place
on earth where that mustard can be

You might ask, "Why do the Hollanders
eat so much mnstard?" The
answer is: The Holland mustard is a
most delightful stomach stimulant "It

A Great Lawyer's Method.
Writing of "Civilian Leaders of the
Confederacy" in the Louisville CourierJournal.
John Goode says of Judah P.
Benjamin:
"The first time I met him we discussed
the practice of law, and in the
course of the conversation he asked me
what we considered a good fee in my
part of the country, to which I replied
that we considered $500 a very respectable
fee. He smiled and said: "When
I practiced law in New Orleans if a
man employed me I charged him a retainer.
If he came about the office
much I charged him a reminder, when
I had done some work in the case I
charged him a refresher, and when it
was all over I charged him a finisher."

A carious mishap gave us a very delicate

locality many bouses have curtains of

cream dye and to science as "the sodium
salt of meta-amido-benzine sutphonic
acid-azo-diphenyl-amine.'* Some
of these cream colored curtains suddenly
changed to heliotrope. Investigation
8bowed that an accidental escape
of hydrochloric acid from a neighboring
alkali plant had discolored the
curtains, and the dye became a most
