Modern Witcheraft. Bays a correspondent of the London Chronicle: “This writer knows of a west country English farmer, a hard headed business man, who uses the latest machinery on his farm, yet holds the bellef in pixies as firmly as any article of his religious creed. Having been visited by a series of minor mis- fortunes, he confided to the writer in the utmost serlousness his fear that he had offended a pixy by inadvertently stepping into a fairy ring and stated that he intended going on the morrow to the white witch at Exeter to get further misfortune averted. And this levelsheaded business man took a day from ‘his farm in the busiest time of the year and journeyed to Exeter and back—a matter of some sixty miles— for this purpose. On his return he was as one who had cast off a heavy bur- den. But the white witch’s mysterles no persuasion could induce him to re- veal.” Walking Sticks. The sixteenth century is that in which the walking stick became not merely a useful implement, but an ar- ticle of fashion, dignity and luxury. In the seventeenth century it was gold headed and made of rare woods. It 'was a slgn of leadership. . For a long period there was little variety among Englishmen in the ma- terial used for the majority of walking sticks. The “oaken towel,” as it was pleasantly termed when an enemy was to be “rubbed down,” shared popular- ity with the crab tree cudgel, which, among rural folk especlally, was much valued and classic from the conflict in “Hudibras,” when— ‘With many a stiff thwack, many a bang, Hard crab tree on old iron rang. Classle, too, is that stout oaken stick which sturdy Dr. Johnson, who, like Knox, “never feared the face of living man,” provided himself with when he went to the pit of the little theater in the Haymarket in full view of Foote, ‘who had announced his intention of “taking him off” on the stage, an In- tention which in view of the stick he did not carry into effect.—Gentleman’s Magazine, Linked Eyebrows. It 1s popularly believed that if one’s eyebrows meet it indicates deceit. Charles Kingsley indorses this belief, but Tennyson has other ideas and poetically speaks of “married brows.” | ' In Turkey meeting eyebrows are greatly admired, and the women use artificial means to bring the brows to this condition, and if art cannot In- duce thin eyebrows to grow they make up by drawing a black line with paste. It would appear that the Greeks ad- mred brows which "almost met, and the fashionable inhabitants of Rome not only approved of them, but re- sorted to pigments to make up the lack which sometimes existed. Some proverbs state that the person ‘whose eyebrows meet will always have good luck, while others state ex- actly the reverse. The Chinese say that “people whose eyebrows meet can never hope to attain to the dlg- logging department of the Crooks- ton Lumber company of this . city, went to Fowlds yesterday to in- spect the work in the camps at that place. P. Larkin, 2 member of the wvil- lage council at Turtle River, came in this morning and spent today on a business and pleasure visit, incid-] entally, calling on the- Pioneer office.

A Rhymed Wedding. According to the Mexico Ledger, John Stobie, a Wellston magistrate, united & negro couple with this cere- mony: Jim, will you take Bet ‘Without any regret To love and to cherish Till one of you perish And is lald under the sod, S0 help you God? Jimi having given the usual affirma- tive answer, Judge Stoble turned to Bet: i Bet, will you take Jim £ And qling to him, Through thick and thin, = ‘Holding him to your heart, Till death do you part? ‘with this benediction: 1 now pronounce yeu man and wife, Go up life’s hill till you get to the, level And salute your bride, you dusky devil!

Bet modestly acquiesced, and the newly married couple were dismissed Through life’s alternative joy and strife “There is one loss sustalnéd by drug- glsts that very few people know “That s in the prescriptions that have {the south-bound passenger: train to be made over, the same as clerks, stenographers, writers and artists, no matter how peinstaking, frequently have to do their work over. The most careful drug clerk in existence is bound to make mistakes sometimes in meas- uring and mixing. He may pour in too much of some kind of liquid or sift in too much of a certain powder. In most cases the overdose would not real- 1y affect tf® value of the medicine, but the conscientious clerk isr't going to take any chances on murdering any- body, so he throws away the whole mixture and makes up another pre- scription.”—New York Globe. from a visit with his brothers at Spaulding.

In France, where great care is taker that men shall have no other name than that to which they are lawfully entitled and where every citizen’s name, profession, social condition and history are carefully recorded and his goings and comings are officially kept track of, some very curious incidents take place. On one occasion a young man was arrested in Constantine, Algeria, on a charge of stealing money belonging to his employer. When it was sought to make a record of his name, it was found that he had no lawful name at all. He had been “inscribed” at Bordeausx at the date of his birth, but his father and mother were not known, and the name of Lafonde, under which he had been inscribed without authority, he had since been forbidden by a court of Justice to bear because it was not rightfully his. After having been for- bidden the name of Lafonde he took that of Bruyton and was refused per- mission to bear that. Nevertheless he managed to exist in some way without any name at all, but when, having been accused of tak- ing some money that had disappeared, the law was obliged to take cognizance of him in some way he was entered on the lists of the court as one “X.” And it was as “X” that he was sent to prison.—New York Tribune. An Inspired Sculptress. As a mere girl Miss Vinnie Ream, the sculptress, visited Rome, her soul filled with enthusiasmh for muslc and art. On one occasion she was taken to one of Liszt’s concerts and was fortunate enough to obtain a seat near enough to have touched him with her hand. As the great master played she lis- tened rapturously to the wonderful musice, entranced and forgeiful of ev- erything save the glorlous sounds pro- duced by his inspired touch, At a pause Liszt turned and looked at her, and guietly, without a word, he leaned and overlald one hand over hers and genily pressed It in silent recogiition of the appreciation which glowed in her large black eyes and filled her whoie being.
