Berryhill 1s the most versatile member of the Inde- penpent Order of Editorial manufao- turers in the whole state of Minnesota. He not only finds time to get up a page of journalistic gems for the Re- view each week, but he also attends to a lucrative law practice besides personally conducting a fine truck farm on the outskirts of the village of St. Paul.

German Author Fond of America. It was a peculiarity of the late Balduin Mollhausen that in nearly all his novels the scene is placed partly in Germany, partly in, America. He was extremely prolific, his stories and travel’sketches makirg up nearly two hundred volumes. He spent many years in the western prairies and the Rocky mountains before he became librarian at Potsdam. To the last he kept his enthusiasm for the west. He left to a Berlin museum four albums containing pictures of America, “as one who will ever again see it.” CHANCE SETTLED TOWN’S NAME Toss of Coin Resulted in Selection of Portland. Frank W. Pettygrove of Seattle has the penny that named the city of Portland, Ore. On the toss of this coin depended the question whether the Willamette metropolis should be known as Portland or Boston. Twice the coin turned “tails,” and the town was named after Portland, Me., the former home of Mr. Pettygrove’s A. L. Lovejoy of Massachusetts, a member of the party that laid out Portland, desired tc name it Boston, after the most important city in his state. Pettygrove wanted to name it Portland, after the most important city in Maine, his native state. They agreed to toss a penny, heads to be Boston, tails to mean Portland, the best two in three to be the choice. Pettygrove won the first toss; Love- joy won the second, and the third proved to be tails, and Portland it was. The younger Pettygrove still has the identica: penny and would not take any amount of money for it. His father kept it for a pocket piece, and it has ‘been handed down to the son, who bears: his: father’s name. It is dated 1835, and is one of those large cxas in yogue at that time, about the size of the quarter of the present day. A Cure for Colds. Here is a sure cure for colds of any kind. It has been tested repeatedly, and has neverefailed, and as I used to catch cold, which resulted in a bad attack of bronchitis, I can speak from . experience. In cases of pneumonia it will not fail to cure if taken in time. Make a ball of cotton batting about the size of a small marble, saturate it well with alcohol, then drop onto it six drops of chloroform; cover it lightly with a thin piece of thin cotton batting, hold to the mouth, and inhale the fumes, inflating the lungs well. It will open and expand every lung cell instantly—Womaa’s Home Compan- ion. Derivations Little Known. “Scandal” is one ‘of the hardest worked words in the language. It is the same as “slander,” and should have ‘the same meaning of things spoken injurious to a person’s repu- tation. Derived from Greek “skan- dalon,” “slander” and “scandal” are good examples of doublets from class- ical sources. “Scandal” came, with the “new learning,” direct from the Greek; “slender” by way of .Norman French “esclandre.” The ‘same pro- cess has given “palsy” and “paraly- sis,” “priest” and “presbyter,” “alms” and “eleemosynary.” Praying for Good Husbands. A picturesque ceremony. takes placa every year in Haute-Vienne. All the girls in the place on the day of St. Eutroplius file in procession to St Junien-les-Gombes to the cross which is erected near the church to the saint. Each girl hangs her left garter on the cross and prays that she may have a good husband, and then gives way to the next girl. The cross is so smothered in garters of different col- ors that at a distance it looks as ever jerked out of the lakes of north-! though it were covered with flowers.

Many years ago there lived a little ways east of Norwalk -a worthy citi- zen made Ami Keeler. He was a farmer and a bachelor. He had a brother in Norwalk whose Christian | name was equally brief, being Eri— but it is of Ami that this chronicle bears witness. At the story goes, Ami was clearing a bit of woodland. on his farm one day when a hunter happened to let fly a bullet in his direction. The missle whizzed close to Ami’s head and buried itself in the dead tree he was chopping. Stunned by the sudden shock he fell to the ground and lay there dazed ad helpless. As soon as he could gather himself together, his first words—so it is said—were: “Am I dead or am I not? Am I; alive or am I not? Am I Ami or am I not Ami? And if I am not Ami, who am I?”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Soul’s Wounds. “A fool he was, and he took his Soul Within his hollow hands; He took his Soul and smoothed it calm, And loosed its strained bands. “*© Soul,” Of chain-gyves, interwove! Who did this thing?’ The Soul replied: “It was the friend I love.” he cried, ‘you bear the stain “‘O Soul, you have a flaming brand Burned on your nakedness! Who did this thing?) The Soul replied: “That was a pure caress.” “© Soul, a fissure shows your heart Like wound of bloody sword! Who did this thing?’ The Soul replied, “That was a friendly word!” The Russian ‘Conscience. In Carl Joubert’s “Russia as It Real- ly Is” the auth-r’gives the following fmecdote: “A Jewish peddler of Grodno dealt in pirrogs (meat pies), and two hungry muzhiks traveling in the thirf-class railroad car with him were so overpowered by the appetiz- ing odor of his wares that, not having money to buy them, they slew the Jew without further ado and sthrew the body out of the window. They were apprehended and to the astonish- ment of the pristav (policeysergeant), the whole supply of pies .was found intact. ‘Why did you not eat the pir- rogs and throw the basket away?’ asked the pristav. ‘You ‘forget,’ said one of the muzhiks, ‘that to-day is Fri- day and it is not allowed to eat meat.’” » The Best Is Ours.
