A Scottish minister had among his parishioners a man who dealt in old horses. alternating his spells of labor with heavy sprees. During the pe riod of depression which followed each overindulgence John habitually took to bed and there diligently studied the family Bible. During one of these fits of attempted reformation his condition prompted his wife to call In the Rev. Mr. Wallace. the parish minister, who at the time happened to be passing. "Oh. Maister Wallace, come in and see our John; he's rale bad!" "What's wrang wi' himy' "He's feart to meet his Makker," said Mrs. John. Quick as fire came the crushing re ply: "Humph! Thei'm he need na be feart for that; hell never see'm." The Taj MahaL The Taj Mahal. at Agra. India, Is said to be the most beautiful structure in the world.

Every part is inlaid with the most exquisite designs In marble of different colors, the finish being so perfect that the entire build ing may be said to resemble in the delicacy of its workmanship one of those Chinese caskets of Ivory and ebony which are now so common in Europe and America. - New York American. Foky's Kidney Remedy is a safe and certain remedy for all kidney and blad der diseases, whether acute or chronic. IIt is a splendid tonic for middle aged and elderly people and a sure cure for all annovances and irregularities of the kidney and bladder. W. E. Brown & The Aged and infirm One. The Haldane family has always been noted in England for its famous walk ers, and the present head of the fain ly tells this story of one of his an cestors: This old gentleman, having been prayed for by a clergyman as "thine aged and infirm servant." Immediate ly suggested a little walk with his surprised clerical friend. The latter consented, and the -aged and Infirm" Mr. Haldano took him for such a tre mendously long walk that when the clergyman returned, utterly exhausted. h fell.asleep and could only with dif fculty be awakened to conduct a re ligious service.-London M.

Rapid Army Mobh.'ization. The finest example of rapid organ ization of an army was certainly the mobilization of the German army in 1 I70: On July 17 in that year the fa mous telegram, the shortest and most momentous ever dispatched.

CRUDE ASTRONOMY. Russian Peasants Have Queer Ideas of Sun, Moon and Stars. We have it on no less authority than that of Caesar that the Druids taught their disciples many things about the form and dimensions of the earth and the heavens and a body ot doctrines on the motions of the stars. Even death itself was to them an astronom ical fact. They held that from this life we pass to take up our abode in one of the heavenly bodies. That they firmly held to this belief is manifest from the fact that they bad no ob jection to lending money to be repaid in the other world. They looked upon the passage of life in much the same way as we regard a journey across the Atlantic. There is no doubt that even now in various parts of Europe the views of the peasantry as to the heavenly bod ies and celestial phenomena have changed but little from those of their predecessors of a thousand years ago. A Russian contributed to the bulletin of the Astronomical Society of France has given the results of his observa tions on this point extending over ten years. The astronomical lore of the Russian peasantry of the north. center and south is limited to a knowledge of the existence of the sun and moon. of three constellations, of the Milky way, of one planet, of comets, shoot ing stars and meteors. The sun is to all a mysterious and beneficent being. The moon covered with ice and snow is ever in flight from its brother. the sun. Upon its disk may be seen unmistakably portrayed the murder of Abel by Cain, the latter being done to death by a pitchfork. Chili are the lunar rays, and woe betide the child of man who shall sleep unpro tected therefrom! From the horns of the crescent much useful informa tion as to the forthcoming weather may be derived by the learned in such things. The stars are lamps or candles which are lit and extinguished daily by the Eternal. A shooting star is the soul of one who has Just passed away. Comets are teralds of war and famine. No Russian ever forgets that the Napoleanic war followed the great comet of 1SiL-Westminster Gazette. An Awful Eruption of a volcano excites brief interest, and our interest in skin eruptions will be as short, if you use Bucklen's Arnica Salve, their quickest cure. Even the worse boils, ulcers, or fever sores are soon healed by it. Best for Barns, Cuts, Bruises, Sore Lips. Chapped Hands. Chilblains and Piles. Ii gives instant relief. 25c at all druggists, Four Extremes. The coldest place on earth inhabited by man Is Verkhoyansk. above the are tic circle. in northeastern Siberia. The thermometer there drops to 90 degrees below zero in January, but sometimes rises to SG degrees above zero in the shade in July. dropping. however. to the freezing point on the warmest sum mer nights. The hottest place in the world is the interior of the great Sa ham desert. In Africa. where the ther. mometer rises to 122 degrees. The wettest place Is Greytown. Nicaragua, where the mean annual rnin'.#Il is 260 inches. The place of least rain is Port Nolloth, in South Africa, where less than an inch sometimes falls in a year. All For Love. "Did you ever know a girl to die for love ?" "Yes." "Did she just fade away and die be cause some man deserted her?" "No: she just took in washing and worked herself to death because the man she loved married her." -iHouston Post. ______ A Cruel Hint.
