A citizen who had been summoned to appear at the po- lice court for br aw, find- e to appear facts to s guilt, and sts through m the was fined one de an old settler st of Wind- am Watson, living eight miles north sor, Ill., died at his 1 nee, at the age of seventy-six y s, and was buried in a coffin that he made sixteen years ago for himself. It is of walnut wood and he has kept it in his hous ever since, and two weeks before “death had it brought into his room and placed at the foot uf his bed. —A hen in Canada seratched up 3400 in old coins a few days ago, and about the same time an Ohio hen was dis- sected and found to have dug up some- where in her wanderings and swallowed a quantity of gold dust. These facts indicate that a new career of useful- ness and honorable distinction is open- ing up before the humble barnyard fowl. Long may she scratch. —The room where the Court of Ap- peals sits in the capitol at Albany is described as the most gorgeous in its appointments of all the court rooms in the counir, The wood work is beautifully carved and panels are of mahogany and onyx. ‘The carpet was woven to order across the water. Por- traits of all the judges that have ever satin the court are placed in panels about the room. —According to the census of 1880-81, the last one taken, there were at that ,time 20,980,626 widows in India, of ‘whom 669,000 were under nineteen years of age and 278,900 under four- ‘teen years. According to the native custom, none of these widows are at liberty to marry again. The same census gave the total female popula- ition at 99,700,000, and of these only - 200,000 were able to read. —A physician giving a bit of his ‘own personal experience, and havinga constitutional tendency to sleepless- mess, says that nothing has ever given such decided relief as eating heartily just before going to bed. He objects to the use of the customary night-cap as a remedy against sleeplessness, both because alcohol is injurious to an empty stomach, and because it does not induce a natural sleep. But he thinks that adults should be like babies, who sleep best with a full stomach, without night-mare, or other unpleasant results. —A Turkish police court in Con- stantinople was investigating the cause * of the death of a young and beautiful Circassian slave, found floating in the Bosphorus, with her hands and feet firmly bound with thongs. The court had the body identified as that of a girl who belonged to a wealthy Turk. Then it rendered the decision that the deceased came to her death by drown- ing, she having cast herself into the sea with the purpose of taking her own life. The firmness of this pur- pose was shown by the solidity with which she had bound her own hands and feet before throwing herself into the water. ____ William's Australian Herv Pill.

Dr. Swayne WOMAN'S PETTY SPITE. “Bab” Chats Weakness of ier Sister The woman of to-day is not as not as black as she is painted, sor, after all, she has so many things to interest her that she does not indulge in as much scandal as does her brother. It is my private opinion that if any wick- ed, malicious rumor is followed up it will be found that a man is at the bot- tom of it—a man who is probably dis- liked by women and who avenges him- selfin that way. Women say little, tantalizing things, just as small dogs snap at you under the i ion that they are doing a great deal of harm; but men do not hesitate to tell great big untruths that are like the bite of a bull-dog—they cut far in and leave sears. Most of us have heard unpleas- ant things of ourselves—most of us, being what the world calls supersen- sitive, have shed bitter tears over the yelping mongrvrels, that it would have been wise for us to have scorned. But until the world is made all over again, unkind words, untruthful stories are going to hurt, and they will hurt just so much more when the woman whom you thought your friend repeats them to you. It always seems as if this were the way; it always seems as if one wanted to get down on one’s knees and pray to be delivered from friends and grant- ed only acquaintances. It is usually the man in whom you believed or the woman to whom your confidence has béen given who has managed to Convey a libel with a frown, Or wink a reputation down. —Bab, in N.Y. Star.
