Th Cidren' aaea-The EMotheris Find ti-i - -- In Cae of Fire. - In case of fire if the burning articles ire at once splashed with a solution of ;alt and nitrate of ammonia an i a ,ombustible coating is formed. This is L preparation which can be mrde at come at a trifling cost and should be cept on hand. Dissolve 20 pounds of ommon salt and 10 pounds of nitrate )f ammonia in 7 gallons of water. Pour this into quart bottles of thin lass, and fire grenades are at Nand eady for use. These bottles must be sightly corked and sealed to prevent evaporation, and in case of fire they oust be thrown near the flames so as :o break and liberate the gas contain ,d. At least two dozen of these bottles should be ready for an emergency. In this connection it is well to re neruber that water on burning oil scat :ers the flame, but that flour will extin ,uish it. Salt thrown upon a fire f the chimney is burning will help to leaden the blaze. If a fire once gets under headway, a ,overing becomes a necessity. A silk iandkerchief moistened and wrapped bout the mouth and nostrils prevents suffocation from smoke. Failing this, t piece of wet flannel will answer. Should smoke fill the room, remem >er that it goes first to the top of the oom and then to the floor. Wrap a >lanket or woolen garment about you, ith the wet cloth over your face,, trop on your hands and knees and rawl to the window. Bear in mind that there is no more [anger in getting down from a three tory window than from the first floor [ you keep a firm hold of the rope or adder. Do not slide, but go hand over and. One of Sottern's Jokes. That inveterate joker, Sothern the ctor, had made an appointment with 'oole, the comedir.n, to dine at a well nown London restaurant. The hour f meeting was fixed and Sothern ar Ived some few minutes before the ap ointed time. An elderly gentleman ras dining at a table at some little istance from that prepared for the Pro actors. He was reading a news aper which he had comfortably ar nged before him as he was eating is dinner. Sothern walked up to him ad striking him a smart blow between ie shoulders said: "Hello, old fellow! Who would have iought of seeing yo ' here? I thought Du never"- The assaulted diner irned around angrily, when Sothern rclaimed: "I beg you a thousand par ons, sir. I thought you were an old lend of mine-a family man whom never expected to see here. I hope ou will pardon me." The old gentleman growled a reply, nd Sothern returned to his table, here he was presently oined by oole, to whom he said: "See that old boy? I'll bet you half crown you daren't go and give him slap on the back and pretend you ave mistaken him for a friend." "Done!" said Toole, and done it was nmediately with a result that may e imagined. How Horses Rest. "Have you ever noticed," asked a lermantown veterinarian the other ay, "that every horse left standing by curbstone for any length of time in ariably turns around so as to place is fore feet on the sidewalk? He al ays does it if the road on which he is tandng slopes the least bit in either irection. This shows that the horse as a great deal of plain, common nse. He will not allow himself to e worn out where it is not necessary. people only had his wisdom, there rould be a great deal less sickness in e world than there is at present. Vhen a thoughtless driver leaves his orse standing on a slope or at an angle f the street, all the animal's weight is brown upon one side, causing strain, nd f left long enough painful ex austion. Twenty minutes of such an rdeal will fatigue a horse more than whole day's travel. But when he is ble to plant his fore feet on the curb tone t gives him a better plant and djusts his weight more equably. Many the muscular ailments from which orses suffer are brought upon them by eing continually obliged to stand by de gutter side on streets which slope ecidedly. A good' driver will always sek to rest his horse on a level when ossible."-Philadelphia Becord. Arizona Forests. Arizona is supposed to be almost an nbroken desert, but in reality it has ie largest unbroken pine forest in the rted States, covering an area of over ,000 square miles. This timber is sually found at an altitude of be wveen 5,500 and 7,500 feet. The total uantity of pine timber fit for sawing urposes within the boundaries of the iritory amounts to 10,000,000,000 feet, rhich can supply the needs of a popu us state too more than a century.

Neither differences of organization animals nor in the constitution of ti poisonous substance generally affor any clew for interpreting an exception el want of effect. Unaccountable . the immunity of rabbits against bell. donna leaves (Atropa belladonna, dea< ly nightshade). You may feed the] jwith belladonna for weeks without ol serving the least toxic symptoms. TIb meat of such animals, however, prove poisonous to any one who eats it, pri ducing the same symptoms as tb plant. Pigeons and varidus other herbivor are also to some degree safe from tb effects of this poison, while in warn blooded carnivora it causes paralysi and asphyxia. In frogs the eiTec Is a different one, consisting of spasm: The meat of goats which had fed o hemlock has sometimes occasione poisonous effects. Chickens are neal ly hardy against nux vomica and th extremely dangerous alkaloid, strycl nine, contained in it, while in th smallest amount it Is a fatal poison t rodents. More remarkable yet in this respec is the immunity of Choloepus hoffmar ni, a kind of sloth living on the islani of Ceylon, which, when given te: grains of strychnine, was not much al fected. Pigeons are possessed of hig: Immunity from morphine, the chief a kaloid of opium, as well as from bells donna.

Cats are e3 tremely sensitive to foxglove (Digitali purpurea), which on the contrary ma; be given to rabbits and various bird in pretty large doses. Fined For Death on Board. "The only place, as far as law is con cerned, where it costs money to dig from natural causes is aboard a steam ship," remarked a vessel owner. "Th purpose of the law was excellen enough. There was a time when emi grants were being brought to thi country in very large numbers, or 'b; the shipload,' as it was termed. Ther s no doubt that there was crowding ii the ships that brought them, and t prevent this a law was passed impos ng upon t.,e ship a fine of $10 fo every death that occurred during th passage from natural causes of pen sons over 8 years of age.

Eipigrams In Fiction. I always pray that I may never oui ive my illusions or my front teeti though all else may fail me. Admiration is like porridge-awfull; stodging. but you get hungry again a most as soon as you've eaten it. A good nose is an abiding resting place for yanity.

Matter of a Semicolon. A Russian military paper tells o a lieutenant who overheard a sergean giving a recruit a short lecture upol his duties. "The military service,' said the sergeant, "requires little pray er to God and a strict attention to thi rders of a superior."

C. ' Shrewd Peter 3 e Great. Peter the Great adopted rather a nov el means to convince his subjects thai d they should change their clothes tc conform with the modern costumes of western Europe. Believing, as is well kncwn historically, that the future greatness of Russia depended upon the facility with which it was made to as similate all that was best in other countries, he had succeeded in introdu s Ing some important innovations into the half civilized region over which he e held sway. At length he had patterns of cloth hung up at the gates of the a towns, and .those who did not conform e to the fashions thus set were docked a publicly, albeit this was done In as pleasant a manner as possible, for Pe t ter believed in being good natured with his people. They, on the other hand, loudly demurred and used the argu ment that what was good enough fox their forefathers was good enough for e them. "Very well," said the sagacious Pe ter. In 1703 he gave a dinner at Mos cow to celebrate the marriage of one of his jesters and insisted that it should t be conducted in strict conformity with . ancient usage. There had formerly been a superstitious custom of not 1 lighting a fire on a wedding. So Peter made them do witnout a fire, although It was very cold. He wouldn't give . them any wine, because their forefa . thers never drank it. When they re monstrated, he reminded them that it was a poor rule which did not work all . around, and thus by his good natured greatness wheedled his people into new coats, about the hardest thing that can 3 be done with humanity. Eloquence and the Pea. Our worthy forefathers were fond of . rhetoric-particularly of funereal rhet orie-and were not always quick to . perceive the dividing line between the sublime and ridiculous. They seem, moreover, to have regarded the extraor . dinary as contributing an added and kindred element to the impressive. , Many of their epitaphs show this, but a few more completely than that of an estimable matron who perished un y timely in Newburyport in the eight eenth century. r Her tombstone on the crest of the a burying hill is yet easily legible, with no more trouble than scrapi.ng a bit of s lichen here and there and m:oeling to t push away the long grass and intrud 1 ing daisies. Thus it reads: t Sacred to the Memory of Mrs. Mary McHard The virtuous and estimable Conscrt of Captain William Mchard of Newbury Port, who midst the t laudable exertions of a very useful and desirable Life, in which her Christian Profession was well _ adorned, and a fair copy of every social virtue displayed, was, in a state of heaith, Suddenly Summoned to the Sides & snatched :rom ye eager - embraces of her friends (and the tlcobbing hearts of her disconsolate family confess'd their fairest prospects of sublunary bliss were in one moment dash'd) by Swallowing a Pea at her own table, 3 whence in a few hours she sweetly breathed her Soul away on the 8th day of March 1778, aged 47. This Mournful Stone as a faithful Monument of virtue fled to Realms Above and a solemn Monitor to all below the Stars, is Erected by her Husband. -Youth's Companion. 7 George MI and the Wigmakers. - When George III ascended the throne of England, his wealthy subjects were beginning to leave off wigs and to ap t pear in their own bgir, "if they had t any." As the sovereign was himself i one of the offenders, the peruke mak ers, who feared a serious loss of trade, prepared a petition, in which they pray L ed his majesty to be graciously pleased t to "shave his bead" for the good of dis tressed workmen and wear a wig, as his father had done before him. 3 When the petitioners walked to the r royal palace, however, It was noticed that they wore no wigs themselves. As t this seemed unfair to the onlookers, they seized several of the leading pro Scesslonists and cut their hair with any implement that came most readily to Shand. tFrom this incident arose a host of I curious caricatures. The wooden leg t maers were said to have especial claims on the king's consideration, in asmiuch as the conclusion of peace had deprived them of a profitable source of employment; hence the suggestion that his majesty should 'not only wear a wooden leg himself, but enjoin the peo pe to follow his laudable example. - Very Meek. ":Did you trump my ace, dear?" asked Mr. Meekton, who was his wife's part ner at whist. "I[ did," she rejoined sternly. "What of it?" "I merely inquired to relieve my mind," be answered, with a gentle smile. "It is a great comfort to know you trumped it. If'any one else had trumped it, you know, we should have lost the trick."-Exchange. Force of Habit. -One of the neatest arrests on record was effected by a policeman near Bourne, England, not long ago. Sus pecting two men of being deserters, he stepped up behind them and called out sharply, "Attention!" Taken unawares, -the men sprang to position In true mil itary style, only to find themselves the -next moment in the arms of the law. La to Gushers. "My dear." said a careful mother to -her daughter, "don't gush." "Very well, mamma," replied the -dutiful girl, "but you know that in the oil regions it is the gushing wells that are thought the most of." "But you must also bear in mind that it Is the unrefined oil which gushes."-Pittsbulrg Chronicle. - Japanese Story Tellers.

An old friend has had that misfortune, and he !s always will ing to pay two or three cents more a pound than any other customer. Hav ing listened calmly to his tale of woe I inquired if he had acquired the practice of tipping the butcher. Tip ping the butcher? - No! He thoughi it was a sufficient tip to offer the two or three cents more a pound "That offer," I tried to explain, "goes to the proprietor direct, or his blocli 'man thinks yon are trying to make a thief of him by inducing him to hold out for himself the extra price. It wil never work. "Just say to your cutter: 'See here old chap, I've been dissatisfied witi my steaks for some time. Come ou1 and take a drink, and tell me how to select good meat.' He's too busy Then slip a dime into his hand and say, 'Have a glass of beer when you get out,' or a quarter and say, 'Have a smile with me when you have time.

In the "Floresta Espanola" of Mel. chior de Santa Cruz the author has an anecdote of Cardinal Pedro Goncalez That prelate noticed that one of the priests in his retinue, a Biscayan, car ried a short sword under his cloak The cardinal reproved him and told him that it was wrong for a cleric tc carry arms. The Biscayan replied that he carried the weapon to defend him. self if he were attacked by a dog. The cardinal said that in case he saw a dog running at him he should begin to re cite from the gospel of St John. The priest acknowledged that this was a good way, but held to the dagger, "be cause there are some dogs who do not understand Latin." Buggies, Wagons, Road Carts and.
