The homely forms of speech used by the country people with whom little Edith and her mother boarded last summer were frequently very puzzling to the child. One evening the farmer’s wife, in talking for a few minutes with Edith’s mother, remarked that, as she was very tired that night, she would “go to roost with the chickens.” When Edith’s bedtime arrived a lit- tle later the youngster was nowhere to be found. After considerable search she was discovered sitting on a large stone near the chicken house, quietly watching the fowl as they came in one by one. “Edith,” called her mother, ‘“what are you doing there? I've been look- ing for you everywhere; it’s time to go to bed.” “I know, mother,” was the reply, “but they’re nearly all in now, so she’ll be here soon, I guess.” “Who are in and who will be there? ‘What on earth are you talking about, child?” asked the mystified mother. “Why,” explained Edith, rather im- patiently, “you know Mrs, — said she was going to roost with the chickens tonight, and I'm waliting to see how Bucklen’s Arnica Salve | ©° 9= 1" The Best Salve In The World, '~ -~ AT e e e JACOB F.

Mrs. Goitt had been waiting for 8 ‘week or more to give her rear porch & good scrubbing, but she was always afraid of incurring the keen displeas- ure of the people in the flat below, who, it seemed, were never off their porch and who would get all the drip. pings of her scrubbing operation.. ‘When it rained, though, Mrs. Goitt saw what she thought was her oppor- tunity. The people down below surely ‘would not be out on the porch during the rainstorm, and all the water that dripped down would be attributed ta the rain. She filled a bucket with boil- ing hot water, threw in a sallow cake of soap and got busy. But she had reckoned wrong, for the people.down' below were on their porch enjoying the shower. In a minute Mrs. Goitt heard a woman’s voice below saying: “Why, Martha, the rain’s com- ing through from the porch above. The roof must leak.” And then Martha observed, with a gasp: “Yes. And, oh, heavens, had you noticed that the rain is hot? Did youn ever hear of such a thing? Aren’t ter- rible things happening? All these aw- | ful murders, and now hot rain! But it's the Lord’s doings, and we must sub- mit.”"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. , Early Lamps and Wicks. It would be hazardous to conjecture .what the first wick consisted of. but "when we come to consider the iron : 1 lamp, or “crusie,” we know that the { wick commonly used was the pith of the rush, which was gathered and partially stripped of its outer green covering, cut into proper lengths, dried and tied up into bundles ready for use. ‘The iron lamp was hammered out of one piece of iron in a stone mold. This was usually done by the blacksmith, | and the molds are still to be seen in museums, in the hands of private col- lectors and no doubt at some of the country blacksmiths’ shops. They are of one uniform shape, with some slight varieties. The lamp consists of two cups, one suspended above and inside the other. The suspender is so fixed “| and notched as to enable the upper | cup, which holds the oil and wick, to De shifted to keep the oil constantly in contact with the wick. The lower cup | catches the drip of the ofl, which can be easily replaced in the upper cup by lifting it off until the oil is poured into it. The upper cup has sometimes &. | movable lid.—Chambers’ Journal. Carnegie’s First Investment, Tt was due to Thomas A. Scott that | Andrew Carnegie made his first Invest- | ment, ten shares of stock in the Adams | Express company, valued at $500. This i he did with considerable trepidation. { He had labored hard for the money he had saved up while he had worked as a telegrapher. It is part of railroad i history how he later fell in with the 1 Iiventor of the sleeping car, saw the enormous advantages which that man- ner of travel held out to ‘passengers and promoters and how he interested others in the invention of Mr. Wood- ruff. This occurred shortly after his return from Washington, when the problems of transportation were still uppermost in his mind. He was now on the road to success and wealth as he then pictured earthly possessions. | The Pennsylvania oil fields ylelded large returns when Carnegie and oth- ers turned their energies in the direc- tion of the newly discovered territory. In one year land purchased for $40,000 increased in value so that it paid a div- idend of $1,000,000.—Exchange. Reading a Horse’s Face. Every horse carries an index to his | temper and Intelligence in his face. The teachable, tractable animal is broad and flat between the eyes; the bony ridge of his face dishes slightly from the point where the face narrows toward the nostrils. His ears are well | set, sensitive and far apart, with a well defined ridge of bone extending across the top of the head between them. Always feel for this ridge in judging a horse. The eye should be large, clear and bright, with a prom- inent ridge of bone along the inner and upper edge of the socket.—London An- swers. Whers Swallows Go. The swallows all spend the winter in Central America and the south part of Merxico. They appear in the southern states as early as the middle of Feb- ruary, but seldom get as far north as New England until the month of May. The robins winter in the southern states and in northern Mexico. They are to be seen in flocks the winter through in the gulf states.—Exchange. Plausible. “The trouble with this tooth,” said the dentist, probing it with a long, slender instrument, “is that the nerve Is dying.” “It seems to me, doctor,” groaned the victim, “you ought to treat the dying with a little more respect.” An Unhappy Answer. The Curate—Good gracious, Giles! ‘Whatever makes you keep such a spite- ful old cat as that? Giles—Well, sir, you see, it's like this—I’ve felt a Dbit lonely since my old woman died!—Lon- don Opinion. At the End of the Voyage. Jonah disembarked. “The only trip I don’t have to tip the steward,” he exclaimed. Therewith he regarded the whale half approvingly.—New York Sun. " Different Points of View. “It's hard to be poor,” sighed the seedy pessimist, “That’s queer,” replied the ragged optimist. “I always found it easy enough.” Buccessful guilt is the bane of so doty—Syrus.
