Horace Greeley was one of the most profane men that ever lived. Cursing was second nature to him. He even called himself names that would cause a duel in the South if applied to a friend or enemy. When he realized that he was dying he said aloud: ‘Well, the devil’s got you at last, you d—d old ——.” A week after the funeral his daughter, Miss Gabri- elle Greeley, wrote to Whitelaw Reid, the young editor in the Tall Tower (Tribune), to know what were the words of her father. Reid wrote: “Your dear father’s last words were, ‘I know that my Redeemer liveth.’ "— New York Press. .Fire Extinguisher. Old fashioned women always pro- vided themselves with fine gowns for use in the possible event of being forced to face a fire in a scanty night toilet. The modern women meet the same possibility by storing, in a con- venient place in every room, bottles filled with a mixture made from ten pounds of salt, five pounds of sal am- of water, says the Chicago News. Should a fire start break a bottle or two of this over the burning place. If used in time it will put out a small fire, and in any event may delay the ravages of the flames till the engines arrive. Many Tons of Ore Mined. Never during the winter has so much ore been mined and hoisted to surface at lake irom mines as this sea- in the region about Duluth, Minn. : piles have been as large as now, ground was an accumu- geveral seasons of poor ad helped to make.

Returns to the Fold. Rev. George K. McDonald, the Bap- tist mister, who gave up his church in Astoria, Long Island, and started a saloon, has found the venture unprof- itabie and given it up. Seeing the error of his ways—and having made a failure in the salcon business—he a ckureh meeting ght readmission to the fold, con- fessing that he had sinned grievously. He may be restcred after a time, but not just yet, it is thought. A Sample of Maine “Beer.” J. G. Joréan, of Bates college, tly asked to analyze some so-called “beer” confiscated by a sher- | iff in Maine. His report was as fol- lows: “I should say that it was. com- posed of the rinsings from a sour mo- lasses barrel, the suds obtained in washing a barroom floor and all of the meuldy grain the liquid would absorb.

Those who have seen women who are expert fencers recognize that it is an extremely graceful amusement. Many ladies are taking fencing les- sons. Strength of leg is necessary, as well as of wrist, and much activity. But it is a most admirable exercise, | improving the figure and developing the muscles, and is worthy to be made an art. It is not only physical strength that is reauired for this amusement, but keenness of the eye and dexterity of the wrist, and these are quite woman- ly. Quickness oz percoption and ac- tion are necessary. Concerning Jags. It is desa in the ranks of the toil- er for daily bread that the awful blight of the humdrum is most >eenly felt, and here the need of an inteili- gent form of jag is most evident, Dress is forbidden as a luxury be yond attainment. Alcoholic excess is a curse whose hideous after results are only too well known. Blessed is the map who sball find or devise a new and harmless jag that shall come into the tired lives of the masses like a burst of sunshine on a leaden day, dispersing and haunting shadows of vice jags, and giving the necessary relief from grinding monotony with- out any demoralizing after effects.— A. K. Eond in the Booklovers’ Maga- zine, Preacher’s Witty Sermon. The old Bridewell burying ground, which is now the subject of legislation in the English Parliament, is the rest- ing place of Mme. Creswell, so often mentioned by the Charles II. dramat- ists, who died in Bridewell prison, and left £10 for a sermon to be preached at her funeral, on the condition that nothing shcula be said of her but what was well. The preacher got out of the difficulty rather neatly by saying: “All that I shall say of her is this: She was born well, she lived well and she died well; for she was born with the name cf Creswell, she lived in Clerkenwell and she died in Bride well.” Engine Has Had Long Service. One of the earliest steam engines ever built is still the main source of power in some rolling mills in Bir- mingham. It was set up in 1767, and the original wooden beam has lately been replaced by an iron one, after 135 years of continuous service. Aside from this iron beam and a cylinder that was putin new in 1802 the engine is the same as at first, even to the con- necting rod. For its special purpose the old engine has been pronounced | more economical than many modern } engines, and it is likely to do duty many years more. Found His Mother’s Corpse. Talking about railroad accidents, there was one with a particularly sad feature near New York e day or two ago. A middle-aged woman was run down at a grade crossing and dread- fully injured. A surgeon living near was called, but before he could get to the spot the watchers had placed a rug over the face of the victim. She was dead. The surgeon stepped up and with professional coolness re- moved the rug to see the face. Then he shrieked and fell unconscious be- side the corpse. It was his mother. A Dramatic Reprieve. On the stage it happens that the hero is reprieved at the eleventh hour when on the scaffold, and there are cases recorded in history. Few, how- ever, have been so close to death as Joe Campbell, a negro, who had been condemned to death for murder at Yazoo City, Mo. The negro had the halter about his neck and the trap- door was ready to be sprung open. Campbell then turned to the sheriff and confessed the name of his accom- Plice. He was instantly reprieved. Brains of Lunatics, An eminent doctor says a heavy brain is no indication of intellectual eminence. The average weight of the European brain is from forty-nine to fifty ounces. Yet five out of thirty-one male lunatics, taken without selection from post-mortem records, had brains ranging from fifty to fifty-six ounces. The ebrains of three female lunatics out of twenty-two exceeded fifty ounces. It is well known that epilep- tics usually have large brains. THE WAYS OF ROOSTERS. Philcsopher Asserts They Do Too Much Crowing. “T’ve heard a good deal in my time about the foolishness of hens, but when it comes to right-down, plum foolishness, give me a rooster, every time. He’s always strutting and stretching and crowing and bragging {about things with which he had noth- ing to do. When the sun rises, you’d think that he was making all the | light, instead of all the noise; when the farmer’s wife throws the scraps | in the henyard, he crows as if he was the provider for the whole farmyard land was asking a blessing on the food; when he meets another rooster, he crows; and when the other rooster licks him, he crows; and so he keeps it up straight through the day. He even wakes up during the night and crows a little on general principles. But when you hear from a hen, she’s laid an egg, and she don’t make a great deal of noise about it, either.” —From “Letters from a ‘Self-Made Merchant to His Son,” by George | Horace Lorimer.
