Pain in Amputated Limbs. One cold morning at Columbus, 6a., vre met a distinguished ex-Confeder rate general who had driven to to^n in his buggy. We inquired as to his i health and he replied: "I am feeling well except in this arm." He point ed to an empty sleeve, and added: "My hand and fingers are almost frezen and give me anguish." Now the hand and fingers aforesaid were invisible. They had been long buried, yet they remained in some apparently mysterious manner with the original owner. We recalled this incident when reading of a similar experience of Mr. Towles, in Baltimore. A few weeks ago the lower part of Mr. Towlcs' right leg had been so badly injured by being caught in a moving tugboat hawser as to necessitate am putation. His right leg is still in tact, however, if Mr. Towles is to be lieve his sensations. While seated in a chair recently he was seized with such a violent cramp, apparently in the toes of his right foot, that he had to get up and walle about with the aid of his crutches in order to obtain re lief. Several times he has awakened at night, he says, with a sensation that his feet were crossed. The first time this happened Mr. Towles was alarmed, but he was treasured when his physician told him the same thing was liable to ooour for the next 20 years. We onee heard of a man whose leg bad been amputated screaming with pain, because as he said his feet, no longer attached to his body visibly, were being roasted at a fire. Investi gation demonstrated that some medi cal students had removed the amputa ted leg to an upper chamber i nd left it near a bot Stove foot formost; and it was really roasting. The doctors explain this, we be lieve, by muscular phenomena, the stump retaining tendons and sinews eoce used for the whole limb. The psychologists contend that the real body is the invisible one, which alone has sensation, and that no surgeon's knife can sever that from the trunk of man. It is all very onrious, no matter how you look at it.?Augusta Chronicle. The Phonograph in History. The study of history in the future will be attended with much more cer tainty than it is at the present time. With the phonograph and the Cine matograph before him, the student of a hundred years from now will have something much more reliable than heresay evidence or the conclusions of biased historians to furnish informa tion coneerassg the people and the customs of tO-day.' "In Vienna a "Hall of Phonograph Archives" is being established, and therein it is proposed to store up phonographic oylioders containing re cords of Ail spoken languages and dia lects and all the various peculiarities of speech, from the English accent af fected by the American who has made a six weeks' tour of Europe to the slang of Bowery. There will be re cords of noises from factories of va rious kinds, there will be songs by great singers, speeches by celebrated orators, sermons by famous preachers, solos by eminent musicians und scraps of conversation in which kings,princes, presidents, senators, alderman and other great people figure. Even street noises will be phonographed and pre served, so that many years from now, when there will be no need of anti noise societies those who have the desire to know just how great the din was in which th?ir forefathers lived may actually hoar for themselves." The War Department at Washing ton now has in its archives a valuable collection of moving pictures of the war in the Philippines, to which oar children may refer some day for accu rate evidence concerning the subjuga tion of our far eastern territories^ Sam Jones* Strong Points. The Rev. Dr. Frank Bristol, pastor of the Metropolitan oho rob, in Wash ington, which is attended by President MoKinley, tells a story which be heard one evening while dining at the white house with the president and Bishop Candler, of tjxo Methodist church, south. The party was talking about revivalists and revivals, and the case of the well-known oxh rter, Sam Jones, was brought up. "The best characterization of Sam Jones prenofcing I ever heard," said ; the bishop, "was that of * colored brother in Virginia. He had just heard ? Sam Jones preach, and was describing ? it to some of his fellows.

Some women seem to think that \ c?oktails and cigarettes take the place [ of troustfrs. ; Peach Recipes. Peaohes are so plentiful just now that the housekeeper is on the qui vivo for some new way to utilize them. The following receipts from an ex change, though few of them are new, suggest delightful ways of preparing the fruit: Peaoh fritters.?Cut the fruit in half, sprinkle with sugar moistened with maraschino. Dip them in fritter batter made of two eggs, one table spoonful of melted butter, one cupful of flour, one-half cupful of oold water. Fry to amber color. Compote of peaohes.?Pare the fruit and remove the pits. Put it in a shallow earthern dish, with enough water to fill the dish a quarter inch deep. Place in a moderate oven and bake until tender; baste often. Serve hot with hard sauce. Peach short oake.?Four oupfuls of sifted flour, three teaspoonfuls of batt ing powder, one teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of butter, one tea spoonful of lard, milk. Sift the bak ing powder and salt and flour, rub in the shortening; then with a fork stir in lightly and quickly sufficient milk to make a soft dough?too soft to roll. Turn the mixture into two greased pie tins and bake in a hot oven about thirty minutes. Cut up the poaches and let them stand while the cake is being prepared and baked, adding enough sugar to sweeten. Butter the baked crusts and plaoe the peaohes between them, reserving enough to cover the top. This oan be served plain or with whipped-oream. Peach Bavarian cream.?One quart of out up peaohes, one large cupful of sugar, one pint of cream, half a box of gelatin, half a cupful of cold water. Mash the peaohes and rub them and the juice through a sieve. Add the sugar. Soak the gelatin two hours in the cold water. Whip the cream to a ! froth. Put the peaohes in a saucepan and let them simmer twenty minutes. Stir often. Add the gelatin to tbo hot peaches and remove at once from the fire. Plaoe the saucepan in a pan of ice water and beat until the mix l ture begins to thioken; then stir in the cream. Mix thoroughly and near j into the mold. Set away to harden. I Serve with Whipped cream. Peaoh pudding.?Line the bottom of a deep puddiug dish with thick slices of stale sponge cake soaked in sherry. Fill the dish with fresh peaches, sliced and sprinkled with sugar. Spread over the top a merin gue of whites of eggs beaten lightly with sugar in the proportion of s tsblespoonfui of sugar to one egg, and return it to the oven just long enough to lightly brown the meringue. Set tha diph on ice, and serve very oold with plain or whipped cream. Removing Warts from Horses. Clarence Muir, a young horseman, gives The Farmers Home Journal the following remedy for the euro of warts on horses: "Take about four leaves of strong oured tobacco, place them in a vessel, poor about one-naif gallon of water on them, plaoe on the fire, letting it boil down to a strong juice and apply to the wart. Always pick the wart so as to make it bleed before the ipplica oation, that it may strike into the fungus growth. A few applications will soon do the work; gradually the enlrgement will decrease and disappear as if by raagin. As an evidence of its effioionoy. some years ago a horse that wo drove had a bleeding wart on his baok that the lines kept continually bleeding. It was about the sise of a walnut, with the neck abont the site of one's index finger. I would occa sionally sprinkle a few crumbs of to bacco on it from my pocket and the wart went away. I have removed warts as large as a pint onp from hor ses' legs by taking the tobacco leaves, dipping them in hot wat *r and bind ing them to the affected part. Try it and you will bo rewarded for your trouble." _ She Liked Variety. She is a very nice little girl, and vet she has an imagination so vivfl that people oan't help wondering once in a while what is going to become of it. The little girl oan tell the moat marvelous tales, and when she is re* proved she is entirely complacent and cannot see that her effeotivo inven tions are anything more than jokes. One of these she told to an interested neighbor, at whoso housA abe cd Frequoutly.. "Bow is your mamma, dear?" asked the neighbor one morning When the little' girl made her appearance. "She Is very sick, answered the little girl earnestly. "Nelly (her sis ter) ?nd ? were up with her all night. We called the doctor." But when the Und neighbor went in haste to seo her eick friend she found her in overy respect as well as ever. /"Why did you toll kind Mrs. Blank Buch a story about me?" asked mam ma seriously of her little girl at the Srst opportunity.

Fool the Hees and the People. "People buy comb honey," said a man from tbe country, "believing that the faot that it is sealed by the hon est litt!o bee preoludes the possibility of fraud. The faet is that the bees of many professional 'honey' raisers do nothing the livelong summer but paok glucose into their hives from an open barrel that is^left standing close by. The bee will not search fragrant flowers the livelong day for a trifling amount of pure honey when he oan get glucose. The honey men see that there is plenty cf glucose handy, and instead of one pound of pure honey they aid the bees in putting ten pounds of glucose on the market. "Human ingenuity has not devised a way for making and sealing the hon ey-oomb, or the bee woMld be dispen sed with altogether, lu handling the gluoose the bees give it a honeyish flavor, and if you oomplain to the bee man that it is not as sweet and sticky as it should be he will tell you that it is the early crop and that the heavy rains make it thin. "1 know a man who keeps 50 hives of bees on the roof of his store in the eity, and by bustling up plenty of glu oose he gets enough 'honey' out of the buzzing slaves to do a wholesale busi ness in Lon?y. Why, his beeo never saw a flower and would shy at a hon eysuckle if they happened to come near one. He will not even let the poor things have a recess to get a drink of water, but keeps a pan of fresh water near the hives for them to drink. "?iVew York Mail aiid Ex press. '_ ?

My first book was written while I was a student at London university and wheu I wus ubout 17 years of nge. A fellow student suggested that I should write a Jewish story the pro ceeds from the salo of which should finance a proposed comic paper. I was quite willing. If he had suggested an epic. I should have written it .So I wrote the story in four evenings (I always write In spurts), and within ten days from the inception of the Idea the booklet was on sale In coverless pam phlet form. The printing cost ?10. I paid ?5. and the friend who had sug gested the book paid ?5. and we divid ed the profits. This first book (pri?e, 1 penny net) went well, it was loudly denounced by those it described and widely bought by them. It was hawked about the streets. One little shop lu White* chapel sold 400 copies. It was even ou Smith's bookstalls. There was curiosity among Jews to know tho namo of the writer. Owing to my anonymity I was enabled to see those enjoying its perusal who were afterward to explain to me their hor ror and disgust at Its illiteracy and vulgarity. I do not possess a copy of my first book, but somehow or other I discov ered the manuscript when writing "Children of the Ghetto." The descrip tion of market day In Jewry was trans ferred bodily from the manuscript of the first book.?Success. Couldn't Meet Hin. "Speaking of hard luck," said a man who didn't look it, "I bad a bit of it once. You know when you are away from homo how you like to meet a man from there. If you're only out In Chi cago or down in New York and you run across a man from Pittsburg, you're glad to see him. One summer I cut out Atlantic City and went across the ocean Instead. It wasn't so bad In England. I could hear the language there. Nor did I fret much In Paris. I ran across a number of Americans, but none from Plttsburg. But I went to places where Americans were fewer and where English was rarely spoken. "One day I was Inexpressibly lonely and almost . homesick. It was In Prague. I went out sightseeing, but I had no heart for it. I would have given anything to have met an Ameri can, and to have met a Pittsburger would have thrown me into a delirium of delight. Even while I was thinking about It I saw a man approaching who had a familiar swing. I felt liko run ning toward him. But I restrained my self. As he came closer I recognized him. He was a Pittsburger sure enough, but I had owed him $25 for a year or more, and from mere force of habit I turned and went down a side street."?Plttoburg News. Railways Without Tunnels. There are, naturally, a number of sweeping curves through the Urals, but all tunneling has been avoided. The writer did not see a single tunnel in the Ural range. It is a remarkable fact that during the Transslberian railway Inspection the writer did not observe a tunnel anywhere, and even after con tinuing the inspection right into the heart of Russia about 2,000 miles more of line had been covered before he saw the first tunnel; this after 0,000 miles of overland railway Inspection. The Russian railway engineer will sooner blow up a small mountain than make a tunneL leaving a yawning chasm between ilie rocks, wif*i two "streaks of rust" at the bottom hereof as a souvenir of his activity; or, if he finds that, after going to the mountain, the mountain is not likely to yield to him his instructions are to circumvent it by a long detour. Anything to avoid tunneling! The primary aversion to tunnels in Russia is not alone their first cost, but their subsequent cost, for tunnels, like houses, always have "something the matter with them."? L.

Abraham Lin coln of Illinois" and came to Columbus under the auspices of the Young Men's Republican club, better known as the Wide Awakes. This was his first speech in Ohio. He spoke In the fore* noon to a large audience, and the late Hon. George M. Parsons was chair man of the meeting. That evening he was escorted to the market house on Town street by a committee consisting of the Hon. E. L. Taylor, Sr.; Charles Scarlett, General James M. Comley, and Charley Wing, and he spoke for a second time. Mr. Lincoln stopped at the old Neil House, and when the committee met him there to take him to the market bouse meeting they had a carrlago at the door. "Oh, let's walk, boyst" And he started ont with Taylor at his side, the great Republican leader covering about five feet in each step.
