A Curious Coincldence. The story of a queer coincidence is told by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. While traveling upon the continent he visited a certain mountain inn, which was in winter, he learned, occupied only by two men. These men, prisoned in a waste of snow and ice, had for all that period no communication with the world helow. Here was a situation for a novelist! And the novelist accord- ingly beyan to let his imagination play about the possibilities of tragedy sur- rounding the two men on their moun- tain height. But the story was never written, for, happening to come upon a volume of Guy de Maupassant, which was new to him, he found therein, un- der thé title of “L’Auberge,” the very story he had meant to write. Sixty Thousand Seeds to the Plant. The common pursiane is one of the wonders of botany as far as séeds are concerned. A single seed of this plant will produce about twenty seed pods In a season. The average number of seeds in each of these, by actual count, is 6,000, making 60,000 in all. As far as we have been able to learn there is no instance of similar fruitfulness in any plant found growing in this coun- try. A single plant of either the James- town weed (“jimson”), the butterweed, the ragweed and some of the vervines produce an cnormous number of seeds, but it is doubtful if any one of them produces one-fourth as many in a year as the purslane does.—St. Louis Re- public. A Human Nose Two Feet In Length. Elepbantiasis is a peculiar form of leprosy in which the limbs and features swell to horrible proportions and out of all semblance to the legs, arms and faces of human beings. Cases are known where the legs have become so swollen that they measured 4% feet in circumference. The cars of the same vietim, Walter Brisbane, an English sailor, were cighteen inches in length, and his nose clongated to upward of two feet when in the last stages of the horrible malady.—London Telegraph, Feminine Logic. “The female sex,” said M. Calino lately, “Is the most illogleal in the world.” “What new proof have you want of devotion of women canons of logic?” he was asked. “Why, take my wife,” answered M. Calino. “I had all the trouble in the world to get Ler to enter her thirties, and now, a dozen years later, I can’t get her out of them.” 5 AT Ui A, Collector (angrily) — Your master seems never to be at home.

Weeds For Weeds, Fred—So you are really going to mar- ry that young widow, eh? Joe—Yes. Fred—She tells me you have promised to give up smoking. Joe—Yes, sort of hutllnl_ sacrifice, as it were. She agreed to give up her weeds if I would give up mine. of the to the Recalling a Malled Letter, Many times people would like to re- call a letter after it has been mafled. This can be done even If the letter has reachod the postoflice of its destina- tion. At every postofiice there are what are called “withdrawal blanks,” On application they will be furnished, and when a deposit 1s made to cover the expense the postmaster will telegraph to the postmaster at the letter’s destl- natlon asking that it be promptly re- turned. The applicant first signs this agreement: “It is hereby agreed that, it the letter is returned to me, I will protect you from any and all claims made against you for such return and will fully indemnify you for any loss Yyou may sustain by reason of such ac- tlon. And I herewith deposit $— to cover all expenses incurred and will deliver to you the envelope of the let- ter returned.” In many cases persons have made remittances to fraudulent parties or irresponsible firms, not learn- ing their true character until after the letter had gone, and have succeeded in recalling them.—Boston Transcript. A Quick Start. 0. W. Nickerson and J. 8. Baker were residents of Harwick. Captain Nicker- son, as he was called, was a man of means and very shrewd. Joe was less fortunate. One day the captain met Joe and sald, “Come over tonight.” Joe did so, and as soon as he entered the captain's home the captain took him into a distant room, closed all the ‘windows and doors securely and said: “Now, Joe, I will tell you the secret of getting rich and you can pay me $25. Be saving, of course, and when you do make a bargain with any one be sure that no one hears you, and then if you get the worst of it or want to back out you can. Now hand me the $25.7 Joe thought a second and then said, “Did any one hear us make this bar- gain, captain?” “Not a soul,” replied the captain. “Well, then,” Joe said, “I guess I'll begin on you.”—Boston Herald. “Where the Treasure In,” Ete. “Harold,” said the heiress, “I have been thinking.” “Thinking of me, precious?”’ asked Harold. “Indirectly, yes. I have been think- ing that were you to marry me every- body would say you only did so in or- der to get my money.” “What care I for the unthinking world?” “But, oh, Harold, I will marry you!” “My own dar”— “And I will not have pcople say un- kind things about you, so I have ar- ranged to give all my fortune to the misslonaries. Why, Harold, where are you going?” Harold paused long enough on his ‘way to the door to look back and mut- ter, “I'm going to be a missionary!”’— Judge. Star Rays. What causes the rays or pencils of light that seem to be thrown out by every star when seen by the naked eye? A German scientist finds that all stars show precisely the same rays, but that in the case of the brighter stars the rays are plainer and some- what longer. It is further remarked that the rays seen by the left and right eyes differ, and that If the head be turned the rays are rotated in a corre- sponding manner. It is thus concluded that the source of the rays is not in the stars, but in the eye itself, the middle of the retina being not perfectly homo- geneous In its sensitiveness. How a Horse Sleeps. Horses always point one ear forward ‘when they sleep. Exactly why it is done no human being can fell, but the probability is that the practice is a relic of the time when they were wild and obliged to be on their guard even when asleep. Cattle, on the other hand, are apparently indifferent as to the position of their ears while sleep- ing, but no odds what position they are in both are always pointed alike. Ask some observing horseman if it is not a fact that a horse always throws | one ear forward when he sleeps. “Do you think that a commercial ca- reer is to be compared to a literary career?” asked the high browed and melancholy youth, “My boy,” said Mr. Cumrox, “in business you can write your name on a piece of paper no bigger than a postal eard and make it worth thou- sands of dollars. In literature you can write up reams of paper without mak- ing it worth 50 cents.”—Washington Star. i !
