Weakness of the whole organism, especially

hence thero is a disordered state of the

and nerve substance, frequent palpitations

irresolution of purpose, and inability to
carry into action any well-defined business

A Savant Halfen aw [Egg, and a
Live Bird Hatches Therefrom.
It seems thul/for more thnu four
teen years; MffMiMf], bf?rucn-:
burg, a man well known to the litor
ary and scientific woiicl.ims 11 Hd his
attention directed to the production
of animal li/e by means of jjalvanism.
This was a daring thought; but the
Professor, with the zeal and devotion
worthy of the old alchemists in whose
footsteps he was lollo'wing, perscvetcd
against obstacles thnt{would have dis
couraged any man less sanguine than
himself; and/uf last, has had the sat
isfaction of scciug his patient labors
crowned with success, that will place
his name in the foremost rank ofthat
j galaxy of bright',stars who. preceded
him in the great field of discovery.
The Professor's first /experiment
was to hatch chickens from the egg by
the employment of artificial brat,
after manner of the Egyptians. In
this he was entirelyjSuuepsfuVand
perfected? a ' sirnrdj; tn?d ^ompaotjup
paratus to maintain by means of hot
water, an equal temperature for tiny
period of time. .?*//
This being accomplished, he turned
his attention to the production of the
egg! This was no easy matter; but
j after innumerable experiments, dur
ing a period often years, the details
of which would fill a volume, he sue
cceded in making a correct analysis
of tin egg. One step was accomplish
ed! but the most difficult was yet to
be taken?tbc mysterious combina
tion of the elements so as to form a
coin pound similar to the natural
article.
Encouraged: by his success, the
Doctor set about bis almost hopeless
task with a determination to sur
mount ev< ry ob. tni le. Ho felt satis-'
I fictl that it Was only by means of
! galvanism that bis object could bo ac
l eoinplishod, and directed all his ener
gies to the construction or a battery of
constant, equal and nibdcratc poWer.
Alter trying marly every kind of
battery in use, he bad almost begun
to despair, when, by accident; he
learned that a constant buttery of
uiuleratc power had been constructed
in England by placing a plate of zinc
and a plate of copper iti an ordinary
llower pot, and keeping the earth
moistened with ammonia.
lie immediately constructed such,
an one. After varjous modifications
he succeeded it to bis purpose, and
bad the satisfaction after nearly 'four
teen years of almost constant experi
ment, of seeing his labors c.owned
with success, and producing from ele
ments a substance similar in all re
spects to ail egg.
Now came the exciting period of
his labor?, to sec whether this arti ?
ft chilly Jormcd egg could be hatched
by beat. lie placed it in his hatching
oven, and watching it through a glass
door almost constantly, scarcely tak
ing time to cat or sleep, until he had
seen the success of his grand experi
ment.
Day after day ho watched with pa
tient assiduity the consummation of
bis hopes. On the twentieth day after
placing bis egg in the oven, a small
hole was observed in one side of it,
ami shortly after the bill of a Kird
was thrust through. The Professor
was almost wild with delight, several
times was on the point of breaking
the egg, to see what kind of a bird, ho
was going to have. lie restrained
hi nisei f, however, and next morning
bad the satisfaction of finding in the
receiver it live bird, of some unknown
species, perfect in its anatomy, but
strange to say, entirely without feath
ers. '{ i /
This most astonishing result, re
marks the paper from which we quote,
''lias almost upset our previous notions
of i. at mal philosophy and governing
laws of animal organism. As wo
gazed upon the fcathcrlcss bird hop
ping about and feeding upon tho
Feeds given it, wc began to doubt the
reality of our own existence, or that
of anything about us!"
The Proiessor, urged on by his suc
cess, has set about another analysis,
aud has no doubt of being able to
produce perfect birds of every known
species,
The Ally cmcin Zeitung of the next
day remarks that the whole city is
electrified with the development.
[From the Rending Feolc.]
How He Was Badly Sold.
I happened the other day ou the
Lcbigh Valley railroad. The train
had just leftEnston and the conduc
tor was making his first round, when
he observed n small white dog with a
bushy tail and bright eyes sitting
cosily on the seat beside a young lady
so haudsome that it made bis heart
roll over like a lop-sided pumpkin.
But duty was duty, and he remarked
in bis most deprecatory manner :
'?I'm very sorry, madam, but it is
against the rules to have dogs in the
passenger cars."
"Oh, my, is that so ?"' and she turn
ed up two lovely brown eyes beseech
ingly. "What in the world will I
do ? I can't throw him away, lie was
u Christhins present from niy aunt."
"By no means, miss We'll put
him in n baggage car, and he'll be just
as happy as a robin in Spring."
'* What! put my nice white dog in u
nasty, study, dusty baggage ear ?"
?'I'm awfully sorry, miss, 1 do as
sure yon,, but the rides of the company
arc as inflexible us the laws of the
Modes and them other fellows, you
know, lie shall hive niy overcoat to
lio on and the brakesman shall give
him grub and water every lime he
opens his mouth."
"I just think it's awful mean, so I
do; and I know somebody will steal
it,' so they will," and she showed n
half notion to cry that nearly broke
the conduct >r's heart, but he was
firm and sang out to the brakesman,
who ffns playing a sob) on the stove :
"Here, Andy, take this dog over to
the baggage car, and tell 'ein to take
just the best kind of care of h inn"
The young lady pouted, but the
brakesman reached o? and picked
up tliccauiue as tenderly as though it
wore a tWo-Wceks-old baby, but as he
did so a strange expression came over
his face like a wave of cramp colic,
and he said hastily to the conductor.:
"Here, you just bold him a minute
till I put this poker away," and he
trotted out of the car door and held
on to the brake wheel, shaking like a
mau with tbo ague.
I The conductor no sooner had bis
hands on the d?g than he looked
around for a hole to fall through,
"Wit?wh?why, this is a worsted
dog."
"Yes, sir, it is," replied the little
miss, demurely. "Did you nut know
j that
"No, I'm most awful sorry to say I
didn't know that;" and be laid the
Christmas dog down in the owner's
lap) aud walked out on the platform,
\shcre he stood a half hour in the cold,
trying to think of a hymn .une to suit
the worst sold man on the Lchigh
Valley road.
A Good Remedy von Dull
I Times.?It is a remarkable fact that
those who advertise the most liberally
j grumble the least about dull times
every one is looking fur the place
where . he can get the most goods for
the least money, and he scans the
columns of bis local paper for the
j desired information. He sees that a
certain merchant advertises to sell
goods cheap, and perhaps quotes a
few pricct'. lie visits his place of busi
ncss to ascertain if he performs what
be advertises, and makes his purcha
ses there. He is satisfied. The mer
chant'.makes a good profit oh his goods
?keeps on advertising, and get-j the
bulk of trade. Why? Because be
gets bis name and business constantly
before the people. Judicious adver
tising is the greatest panacea for dull
times. ?

I The Lodge.
It got so nt last that his wife began
to wonder what business "the Lodge''
had on hand that it should meet four
or five times per week. He was out
for four, nights a week until eleven
o'clock, and he came home with red
ness in his eyes and his stop was un
steady as he passed down the 'hall. He
said "the Ledge" bust upas was mighty
hard on the muscles, and that candi
dates .were coming in by the hund
leds. One night he groaned out in
his sleep, and talked of "the right how-'
er," yejled out "spades!" and the.
wife wtSndored still more. The other
evening she took a position where she
could sec who .went up stairs into the
Lodge rooms. " Her' htlsbaud passed
by and entered a place where rows of
bottles adorn the shclvcH, and coffee
and spico stand in saucers on the
counter to purify the breath. When
she went in he was one of lour dt n
table. Lach one of the four were
looking at the pictures on sonic cards
held in'hia hand.
'?>'o .this is the Lodge, is it?" sire
inquired, as she stood before him.
lie.,was caught, and he resolved to
make"a 'clean hi east of it. He laid his
cards down, rosD upaud gave her his
arm, ami said:
"I won't lie to you, Mary. This is
not the Lodge rooki; this is where wc
stop for a minute to beat the blasted
enemies of our craft but of [their sur
plus; greenbacks. When I come home
to-night, Mary, I'll bring that shawl
you spoke of."
The regularity with which tlie man
now stays at home every evening in
the week is astonishing.
fret the Plan Out.
\ ?
Thcjf&tp l\cy. Pr. Wightman, one
night sitting later than us al, sunk in
he profundities of a groat fo'.io tome,
imagined he heard a sound iu the
kitchen inconsistent with (lie quietude
and security of a mouse, ami so, tak
ing his caudle, he proceeded to in
vestigate I he cause.
His foot beiiig heard in the lobby,
the housekeeper began, with all earn
cstness, to cover the lire, as if pre
paring for bed.
"Ye're up late to-night, Mary."
"I'm jist rnkin' the fire, sir, and
gaun to bed.*'
"That's right, Mary; 1 like limeons
hours."
On his w ay back to the study he
passed tbe coal closet, ami, turning
the key, took it with him.
Next morning, nt an early hour,
there was a rap at his bed-room door,
and a request for the key, to put a
fire on.
"Ye're too soon up, Mary; go back
to your bed yet.
Half an hour later there was
another knock, and a similar request,
in order to prepare for breakfast
"I don't want to breakfast so soon.
Mary; go back to your bed."
Another half hour, and then anoth
er knock, with an entreaty for the
key, as if was washing day.
This was enough, lie arose and
handed out tbe key. saying :
"Go and let the man out."
Mary's sweetheart bad been impris
oned ah night in tho coal closet, as
the preacher shrewdly suspected,
where, Pyramis and Thisbe-like, they
had breathed their love through the
key-hole.
Blessed the man w ho knows enough
to keep his mouth shut. Some people
live sixty years without learning tl is
art. Indeed, the older they grow the
wiiler their mouths open. A man or
woman who is a gabbler at forty-five
is a dreadful allliction to n house, or
church, or community. There are
two things this age needs to learn?
when to say nothing, and when it
says anything to siy it well. "If any
man or woman among you seems to
be religious, ami hridlctli not his or
her tongue, this man or woman's re
ligion is vain.
'?You're a brilliant and versatile
boquct of loveliness," ho said, with a
voice that was low and solt; and, in
return, she warbled: "Dry up,
(Jcorge; you've said enough."

"The . greatest of these i? charity."'
One day last weokl_a Newark chap
walked dowu lUuatj street iifit|t a
.plaster on his nose, and tho folkying^
criticisms were passed upon him by
his fellow citizens within Ihe short
distance between Central avenue and

"Tried to come it over some follow

"Got a ml nose .and trying to hide
"Must have bloweu^fcartul on that

"That fellow's' carry in' a plaster

"Nice old rum blossom that is; if I
had it I'd stay in the house and not be
seen by anybody !",. 1 ?? ;
And yet the subject of all these
uncharitable remarks c got his nose
skinned tiying to get into a crowded
revival meeting,
"See here, 'conductor, why .don't
yoil have a fire in:tlifs car ?" "Well,
