Nature seems, to have provided1 that no poison "which acts externally shall have any effect internally,, and vice versa. Thus the most deadly snake venom can be swallowed with impunity, the juices of the stomach presumably decomposing it and ren dering ii harmless. ' Many experi ments have been, made to prove this. On one occasion , recorded by Humboldt one person swallowed tho whole of tho poison that could he obtained fxorn; four Italian vipers without Buffering any bad- conse quences.

Yon Hara Bears the rturp ?; ... ..... s,., ; ; , : ? . *By ?he Hedi About the middle of tue seven teenth century there lived in Venice a certain haughty duke so rich and powerful aa to bo feared by friend as well as foe, for that waa a period of constant murder and assassina tion. It was the custom of this noble man to give costly banquets in the great hall of his palace, but there, was always one thing to mar the festivity of the occasion-the con stant dread of some secret agent of death. And what tended, still moro to mystery and fear on those occasions of festivity was the presence of the Red Mask. Next to, the lord of the feast, on his loft hand, always sat a silent, mysterious figure , in a red domino, with a blood red mask con cealing every feature. ? Before the guests separated he always rose, gave his hand to the noble host and then went slowly, ^l?mnly and silently around the ta ble, shaking hands with each. As all believed that he was the duke's secret poisoner, he was re-< gar de cl with awe and dread and came in time to bo spoken of and known as the Bed Death. How his fatal purpose was effected none coule! Bay, but it waa conjectured thai upon one of his jeweled fingers he wore what was known as the "death-ring," a ring curiously Con structed, with deadly poison in .tho interior, which could be injected by a sudden pressure upon a. concealed spring into the hand of any one tak en in apparent friendship. . In the very zenith of bis life and power the duke one day received the singul ar intelligence that a gen tie rna u had made his appearance in Venice so closely resembling him in face and ' figure that more. than one person, had mistaken him for his grace. "Who is this adventurer ?" angri ly demanded the duke. "Go, seek him out and say it is my pleasure to see him at my palace." , The stranger was found and read ily accepted the invitation of the nobleman, who received,him in his private apartments, vrith only ono attendant present.. ^P;.The resemblance of the two waa certainly very striking. "Who are you?"' demanded the duke in an imperious tone. "I am the Count of Palmera." At the mention of this titi s thc ?ttendant^of the duke gave a slight, quick start and fixed his eyes search ingly upon the stranger. "I am glad at least to hear yon are a nobleman," pursued the duke : "as the thought of having my like .ness horne by a plebeian would have been ioo humiliating. There shoulc .he but one such face in-Venice count 1" "So think I, duke." "X may hope, then, you will tata early leave of our proud city." "I was in hopes your grace hac mado arrangements to quit th* icountry." 1 'TTou are insolent, count." "So are1 you, duke." : "By the hones of St. Markl" th< duke began in a malignant rage, bu added in quite a different tone witl a forced smile: '?[V ' V ?||;"Your pardon, count. I am toi hasty. It is not the fault of eithe of us that we look alike and hov? tempers alike. If .we ; cannot b friends, there is'no need, of our be ing enemies." "I am disposed to meet your grac half way in either anger or friend -f "I thank your lordship and true you will honor my banquet on Fri day evening next with your pres ence, when I will do. myself th pleasure to introduce your lordshi to eome of the first nobles of Veli ice." As Antonio left the presence o vhis noble master he seized tho fire opportunity to say to tho count : "Sly lord, I have a private wor for your ear. We are countrymen. "Indeed?" 1 <fYes," pursued Antonio, speak ing low acd in Spanish. "I knqi your house -well, and I would serv you. Your life is in danger here." "So I believe." "I think this banquet is given ei pressly to destroy you." "I had my fears." ? "Yet if you will come to it an follow my instructions you shall nc only be savedy^but you will becom duko of Irancavello*." j "How? Speak!" v V ' "Seem indifferent to my remarl now, my lord. Have you ever hear bf the Red Deith, mylord?" ? i "Never, to my knowledge." ' "It is briefly this ? On tho nighl of festivity a ?gors i-? red domin and red mask aits near tho duke. A the close of the feast this figui shakes hands with all present, an it is rarely that some one of tl number does not dio shortly ?fte Does your lordship comprehend "I think i do-r-secret poison." "When this Red Mask takes yoi Hand on that night* ho will lea? within it a paper of instructio] i?rhich you must find an onportunii to read in Beeret and follow to tl letter." "How do you know this?'* "You shall'know if you come." "I will come. Though hew am tp kvic-jv you mean me well7" "If I meant you ill, my lord, what need to .warn you F* 'True. It is enough. I will be hero/' ' 1 Punctual to the appointed time, j the Count of Palerma appeared at the banquet of the Puke of Franca vello. . At the close came the hand shaking round of tho dreaded Sod Death. The count, hoing a stranger, i seemed tho most indiff?rent of any, as was natural he should.. He pour ed out more wine and drank and then seemed to reflect. , In. this mood hs held tho email paper which ho had just rceeived in such a way that he could peruse it without be ing suspected.. This p^per contain ed these words: Feign Minees and be shown to a private apartment. X will ho there to complete tho rleiign. In a few minutes thc duke, who had been furtively watehing tho count, remarked, with seeming con cern, that ho feared his lordship was ill. Tho nobles exchanged glances, and each breathed freer as lio fan cied he had discovered tho victim in another than himself. But tho count, instead of getting better, seemed to grow more faint, and his kind host suggested that he should be shown to a private apart ment and his chief physician he summoned. Ho offered his arm to the count, who leaned heavily on it, and thus left the hall. Passing through an anteroom, they entered a room hung with damask and richly'furnished. Tho Bed Mask, who had left tho banquet hall before them, was stand ing nere as if awaiting- their com ing. As the duke assisted his guest to a divan: the Bed Mask quietly closed and bolted the door. Then, producing a small rope with the slipknot of a hangman, he glided up to thc* duke as he bent over the count and, throwing the noose around his neck, drew it tight and strangled him before ho could comprehend his murderous design and raise his voice for help. .When the duke waa quite dead, the mask was removed, and the face of Antonio appeared before thc count. "Quick, my lord I" said Antonio, Sale and* trembling at what he had one. " "Disrobe, put on the dress of the duke, return to the hall and be lord of the palace. If you suc ceed in deceiving the assembled guests, which I trust'your close re semblance will enable you to do, we are safe; if you fail, wo are lost." Assisted irjr Antonio, the Count, of Palmera was soon dressed in tho gorgeous robes - of the Duke of Franca vella,? and the counterfeit was 60 perfect that -none hut a wife could have detected the dif ference. The plan of tho iniquitous schem er succeeded perfectly, and all the guests that night retired in the be lief-that the false duke was the real. The next day tho Count of Pal mera appeared in 3t. Mark's place and. other parts of Venice in his own proper person. This destroyed the suspicion that he had been poisoned, as all ot the banquet believed. . In fact, it was.only, through tho dying confessions of. the count him self sthat the truth came' ov& at all, which'many would not believe even, then. Long before this event, however, the Ked Death had ceased to ap pear because of. the real death of Antonio, whom his new master had murdered in turn for fear of being himself murdered or betrayed by the only one whr> possessed his fatal secret. ' ? . ' . 'Corot's Friendship. . . A few months before- Corors death his friend, Francois Millet, the painter of "Thc Angelus," died, leaving a widow uiid eleven children almost pennjless. Tho art world was moved, and thc state was in duced to give a pension to Millet's wife. Corot, finding the sum insuf ficient, added to it an annual allow ance o*-. 1,000 francs. Almost im mediately af ter this, feeling his awn health decline rapidly, he desired to secure the widow of his friend against tho loss of this assistance consequent upon his own death. ThereiQ/e he turned over to her the capital necessary to give. her thia annual income for tho rest of her lifo and sent it to her with these words: "In this way I am sure that in no case of misfortune will you have to raffer inconvenience."

"Tlicre are a number of instances on record where, antidotes to tho whisky habit, though conscientious ly followed, have failed/' remarked an eastern merchant on a visit to tho capital. "But there is one of tho simplest nature, too, that has been known to cure topers of all degrees, which recalls to me one. of the worst cases I havo ever known; the case-of a young man from my state. He could and did drink more whisky to the square inch than am man I ever heard of-threcvpints a day was a usual thing. Thpn sud denly he swore off. He fell unlove with a girl who would not stand ipr such proceedings and made it clear to him that it was up to him to do something. He admitted bis weak-, ness to her, which everybody else had known for years, and then and there swore off for good and all time, which, of course, nobody, else but the girl believed. The sequel is that he kept his word, and after sufficient test they were married. "lie has since fold me that to stop drinking in that abrupt way nearly killed him and that at times he was almost crazy, but that he also know to break through onco would be the end of hisvreformation. Every ' time the maddening d?siro for whisky came he would start right in and begin to eat oranges and continue to eat them as long as the appetite for whisky lasted, fre quently consuming' as many as fif teen or twenty oranges a day. The acid quality of the,?prange ap peased the desire for, alcohol. This waB ten or twelve years ago, and I have yet to hear of any regrets upon the part of tho young lady or of my friend breaking his promise to her, but frequently hear that as an antidote to whisky he.suggests a de sire to reform and plenty of orange juice."-Washington Post. Beaconsfield'? Advice. When Lord Beaconsfield waa at the height of his fame, one of his most ardent supporters in the house of commons asked as a signal favor that ho might bring his son .to [Downing street and that, "the great est man of the age" would give the boy some wise maxim or word of counsel which might in- after years be the treasure and guide of his life. Lord Beaconsfield, old and gouty, groaned, but consented. -The'proud papa duly^ produced young hopeful, whom the veteran statesman" thus addressed: "My dear young friend, whatever you do, in after life, mind that you never" ask who wrote the 'Letters bf Junius* or on which side of Whitehall Charles I. was behead ed. For if you do either of those things you will bo considered a bore, and that is something"too dreadful, for you at your tender age to con cern ' -_._ Not Her Only LOM? The Widow Simonds had appear ed before Squire Benson with ono complaint after another. This time she accused one of * her neighbors of stealing two ducks. "I missed them from the duck ?)ond yesterday," she said plaintivo y, "an' this morning, square, I'm jest as sure as I'm standing hero that I saw them in Harr'et Shaw's yard. They had a different look from heir own ducks." "Oh, nonsense!" said the squire. "Mrs. Shaw is as honest as the sun, and you know it 1 Why, I've got ? half a dozen ducks in my yard this ' minute that are exactly like yours!" x "Well, square," said the widow, j lugubriously, "these two aren't tho first nor the only ones Fva missed this summer, but you know I never was one to make complaints till I'm cure- of my ground."

Take Posseeslon and Hold F-rcrnisoc . Against All Cornera. As a property agent in London, let mo eay that tho public can never form any conception of the number, of empty house "jumpers" who exist iii the metropolis and who, seeing.a house empty and apparently neg lected, boldly break in and take pos session and continuo to hold the premises against all comers,, oven when they are discovered. Tho jumper usually chooses his house with great deliberation. As an instance there is in south Lon don a gentleman, a property owner, who will keep his houses empty for years rather than let them at any thing below the rent ho has himself set. The jumper sees such a house as one of theso referred to, and ho notes that it is seldom visited by any one. He is soon inside, and then no ono thinks of dispossessing him tili tho owner happens to como round. Evon then a legal process has to bc gone through. I could givo you an instance at Brixton whore tho jump er never heard of an inquiry for two years. In this case tho houso was a furnished one, and the owner, an of ficial in India, was absent. At tho same time, too, thc jumper was fill ing the house with lodgers and do ing very well out of tho affair. Three months were expended in legal proc esses before repossession was obtain ed. The most dangerous class of jump er is one similar to those who were convicted not long ago. In this case the jumper had taken possession of tho houses-places neglected and be longing to abscnteo owmers-and had boldly sold every scrap of thc building material, and no ono had ever thought of questioning his right, though thc houses demolished were in a well frequented street, and every stick and stone was removed. But small house property is tho usu **l mark pf the jumper. - London Tit-Bits. _ Drinking Water. A beginning of kidney trouble lies in the fact that people, especial ly womon, do not drink enough wa ter. A tumbler of water sipped in the morning immediately on rising and another at night are recom mended by physicians.

"How do you like the new minis ter?" inquired one of tho leading members cf a suburban flock of the deacon's wife. "I don't like him at all," was the reply. "Of course* I invited him to dine with us when ho was hero on trial, and naturally enough I apolo gized in advance for tho dinner/but I leave it to you if that afforded him ground to insult me." "Insult you? Certainly not. How did ho do that?" "Oh, when it came time to say grace he asked tho Lord to bless the ^frugal meal,' and really, between us, I must admit that I had ?made most elaborate preparations."--New York Herald. \&r egyptian Astronomy.
