Aceording to the New Madrid Record, Old Joe MeCoy has been ¢ up the bones of iis master, Captain Rovert MeCoy, the commander of the Spanish naval forces on the Mississippi Fiver. Joe's act was one of love to keep the bones from being washed away by the great Fiver now constantly encroaching. A reporter saw Joe at work. Joe opened a baking-powder box he had carried with him. and placed it on the side of the grave. He then bent down and teok up in his hands a human skull. He han- dled it carefully, reverently. “This is old master’s head.” said he, ashe laid it tenderly in the box. “This Is his fez" and he carefully deposited part of a thigh bone With the skull. He kept on picking up small pices of decayed bones and placing them in box. Along with the bones were several offla-ccrews. brass heads of nails, seraps of Totten cloth, ete. “This is every bit I could ” said he when it was all in. “How big was that gum tree when your master was buried here?” asked the reporter, Rene 8 xom tree about fifteen inches in which stood at the head of the grave. ‘as a saplin’ “bout the size of my arin.

Hoke, of North Carolina, is credited with remarking on the rapid disappearance, in late sears, of the maimed veterans of the civil war, and saying that In a few years men who have lost arms or lezs will be rare. A newspaper ‘agraph to that effect was shown to a maker ¢ artificial limbs who fdrnishes more substi- tute arms and legs than anybody elae in the United States, and he said: “It is trhe that there are not so many cripples observable in th: atreets as there were a few years ago, but it 1s also true that there are almost as in the community, and probably always will be as long as we have railroads. So far as diers are concerned, I don’t imagine ‘y are dying off any faster than any other men who were in their prime when the war ended, seventeen years ago. As for crip- les becoming rare, that is true as far as their sing to be conspicuous objects, but they'll be here among us all the same. The difference will be that the perfection to which the making of artificial limbs has been carried, especially in Jegs, prevents the mutilation of their weare: being noticed. Many men wander about with | artiticial legs whom nobody would ever suspect of being maimed.” In a practical demonstration of what he said he called up three of his empioyes—ayoung wo- man, a boy, and a middle-aged man—and set them walking to and fro in his large office. There was nothing peculiarly observable in the galt of either—no heavy. wooden tramp, no stiffness in the motions of the feet, and no halt- ing in the alternating steps, yet the younz wo- min wore one artificial leg, and each of the others were supported on two wooden limbs. “There,” hecuntinued, with an air of triumph, | rection. Nobody wouid imagine, seeing them in the street, that they have been crippled. And the young woman will dance all night with that substitute leg without her partner sus- pecting its existence, the man will skate, and the bey can run arace! This is all at- tained by the use of a solid rubber foot that | under the heel tread and bends at the s like a natural foot. I could point out to you in the street scores of men that wear these solid rubber feet, not only old soidiers, but | victims of railway and other accidents. and you would not ¥ pringy and noiseless waik that they were not in possession of ail their natural members. And that is the reat reason why cripples are disappearin: It is a very common error that moi men were maimed in battle during than during any other time of in the history of the countr: ct is that there are by the railroads in each year ne ie by the war in any year of the war. affirm from intimate Knowledge of more t 6,000 cases. According to the war records the: were only about 22.600 cripples made on both sides, north and south. by the war. Of cou the exact number has not been, and cannot be. ascertained, for net only were mat reported, but in not a few ins re of ceived in battle led to amputations a numbe years afterwards, so long that they could not hav been inciuded in the ofiicialrecords or kept | any exact account of.

Ihave heard of artificial legs being made to order in France with gold-plated Joints, and all sorts of fancy business, costing, several hundred doliars, but have never bee called upon to get up anything of the kind, and if Lhad to wear an artificial lez J am sure I would prefer a plain one with that great Ameri- can invention, the solid rubber foot, ratherthan I any gold-plated and jeweled one without it. am called upon to furnish from 500 to 600 arm and legs, comparatively few of the former, every year, and you may say.on my authority, that the railroad system of this country, as at pre ent conducted, and the machinery used in so many branches of manufacture inay be relied upon to make three cripples for every one that would be likely to be made by another war. Ot course there are numbers of men in. this busi- ness all over the country, and I believe tiey all do a pretty good business. A dealer in surgical appliances sald, “I do not deal in artificial limbs any more, for the reason that the things I have to keep ‘are mul- tifarious enough to set a man’s head whirling, and to prosecute the artificial limb business properly requires exclusive attention to it. But | I know all about it, and I often have to repair arms and legs, so that I meet many pers who wear such things, and I give you. my word that I have been surprised more than once by men who came into my store and disclosed that they had artificial legs. Thad not ob- served any indication of it in their walk.

Henry Laurens Bascomb, the actor, who had both his feet amputated in consequence of their being frozen, has had them replaced by rub- ber ones, and he now walksabout almost aswell as anybody, well enough, at all events, to enable him to teach elocution and acting. = soils a | | “All in’ Greenwood Cemetery.” From :he New York Times. The decided objection of the landlords of tenement and flat houses of the better class to allow small children to dweil in their tenements has passed into a proverb, both in New York and Brooklyn. The plans of a Brooklyn landlord were rudely frustrated a few days ago by an ingenious artisan, whose nine children, graduated like steps of stairs, were the pride of his heart. Having decided to change his residence, he set about the task of finding a fit shelter for his family, but whenever he was about to engage an acceptable suite of rooms the stereotyped question, ‘Have you children?” was always propounded to him, and his stereotyped answer was always followed by the same result—an unsuccessful issue of the preceding negotiations. At length he had but one more day to remain in his old quarters, and a bright idea flashed through his brain.” He told his wife to prepare a lunch basket for the children and send them in charge of the eldest to spend the day in recreation at Greenwood cemetery. The woman glad to get rid of the ‘children, started them off, and she and her husband shortly afterward renewed their search fer a floor. They soon found a Ee that suited them in every particular, ut before the barzain could be completed the Janitress, accordins to the usual custom aoe tresses, asked how many children they . “Nine,” replied the man, asa shade fitted across the face of the female Cerebus, “but,” he continued, In a tone of sadness and with’a far-away look, “they are all in Greenwood Cemetery.” “Ah,” said the woman, as a sigh of rellef escaped her lips, “I am so glad. There will be no objection then.” A lease for a year was signed, and in the evening the family moyed in. When the people entered with their house- hold goods and numerous progeny the woman in charge of the building was thunderstrack by the apparition of the regiment of youngsters.

Miss Mary Hobart’s Lecture With a Live Baby as an Bllustration. From the Philadelphia Press. Thirty women listened for thirty minutes lat night, inthe Franklin Institute, to Miss Muiry Hobart, who told them “How to Wash al Dress a Baby.” The tecture was illustrated. The itlastration was kindly farnished by a young mother in the audience. It had a very red face, very bright eyes, a wee bit of a nose anda voice. The lecturer, a fresh-faced, handsome woman, begun by explaining how to wash and dressa newly-born infant, without drowning it in the basin, or causing it to burst by tight ban- “White Castile soap is the proper thing to wash a,baby with,” said she, “and the water shouid be at a temperature of 100°.

It tallies with the experimental experi. lences of the late Dr. Parkes, and with e who have had oceasion to march their sol- diery in large bodies over long distances under |" and during gteat privations and diificulties. Tt tallies with the experiences of those who | have watched tie heavy labors ot laboring men engaged in such work as brick-making, iron- forging, woof-cutting. and the like. But it be- comes of unusual vaine, when it is witnessed from the frateralty of tricyelists, because so many of them are working for the pleasure of the exercise and the healthiness of it, and would be the last men to forego, voluntarily, any- thing that would facilitate the art, increase its delight, and add to it ring advantazes. When alcoholic drinks are taken by those who are engaged in tricyeling, the effects most characteristle. If a very light drink, one whieh carries an almost inapprectable dose of the chemical, be taken, a little weak claret, for instance, or thin beer, or thia elder, the effect embarrassing only for a few minutes. Ifso much, however seeiningly little, be taken, to produce what is felt to be an effect, then the mischief is done, and the bad results last for a longer or shorter time | according to the dose of the chemical, the alco- hoi, which has been swallowed and carried over the body. The skin is more or less flushed with blood, there is a brief interval ot hectic fever, there 1s a relaxation of vessels, a sense of fullness in the head, a feeling of irritability and uickness of circulation, and a succeeding sud- den deficiency of bodily power, depres- sion, languor, and inability to’ sustain maintain effort, ending in chilliness and desire for repetition of the deceptive friend, the stimulant, or the desire for rest from the labor. The drink which on the whole serves the tricylist most efficiently is cold weak tea, | made a little sweet with sugar if that is liked, but never over-sweetened, for if it be over- sweetened it cauees thirst. To some the tea is rendered more palatable by being treated with a little lemon-jnice, made in fact into what is called tschai, or Russian tea, but I am not sure that the lemon does not increase thirst, and I know that in some persons it causes acidity and heartburn, and on the whole tschai is not so re- freshing as tea simple. Another very nice and more sustaining drink may be made by pouring boiling milk instead or boiling water upon tea, milk ‘tea; this, slightly sweetened, can be car: ried in the bottle or flask during the journey, and, diluted with water or soda-water at the wayside inn, is at once refreshing and sus- taining. —EE Girls Who Get Tired, From the Philadelphia Times, Probably the average girl doesn’t know her own mind more than afew minutes ata time. She is forever wishing something or another was something else untilit is something else, and then she wishes it was still another thing. When she goes shopping she has the most dreadful time of it. She is almost always cer- tain to want to return whatever she gets and get something else. When she does not do this It is because she has not on her shopping excursion been able to keep her mind together long enough to bay anything of sufficient con- sequence to return. The uncertainty which characterizes their shopping experience, however, does not em- barrass them when it comes to selecting a hus- band. It is easier for most girls to pick out a husband than it is to match a ribbon, and some of them don't give as much consideration and thought to the one as to the other. And yet it isn’t yery easy to exchange a husband when one finds she has made a mistake. Perhaps the girls are not so much to blame. A sweet moustache and alovely necktie are not to be resisted by everybody; ay are well designed to éapture the average girl, But while some girls change their minds a little too late, there are those of aquicker di: sition. One of these latter has just come to the pote attention in Illinois, She has been sued for breach of promise. She herself to ‘a sweet moustache and perfectly lovely neck tle, but shortly discovered that she really didn’t want to marry them.
