"We live on top of a clay hill and bad a wel very deep, sixty feet, I mckon, bu it never had any water in It until ten years ago. A. heavy snow, fell •that 1•Ninter, aud uncle filled the well with now. He rolled up nails until they 'Were large enough to go into the well cleverly and then dumped them in until it was packed to the top. They were packed SG closely that they did not melt until late the fol- lowing 'summer, but when they did they prodt ced a supply of water I never saw surpassed for purity, soft- ness or coo ness It was delicious. "Strange to say, this well, always dry before, has ptyduced a plentiful supply since. The *ater, while not as good as th,at from the snowballs, is still excellent and celebrated through- out the neighborhood."—Chicaga Inter Ocean. Gall, Not Heart, In china. The Chinese, says the Shanghai Mel, tary, lay stress on the amount of gall a man has and not on the amount of heaft. Thus we read of Hou King, who was governor of Henan in the sixth century. that he once captured a rebel named Li Cheh, brought him into the market, chopped oft his hands and his feet, ripped up his heart and cut out his vitals. The Victim, however, continued to jest, with his features un- distorted and his countenance un- changed. His gall bladder was then seen, to haee the capacity of a pint measure, -which completely accounted for his stoeism. In 1145, when the ar- mies of the Mantehoos were gradually overrunning China, one Wu Han Chao made head against them in Anhui, but he finally fell into their hands. The hiatorian records that his gall :was three inches long. Thr Corl‘ezer- and the Bottle. The following little scene at an in- quest upon the body of a murdered man is reported by a correspondent of the Anglo-laussian from Astrakhan: The coroner dictating to his clerk: "On the table was found a bottle— No; stop for a moment We must ascertain Its conteuts." The coroner, tasting the liquid, dictates: "The bottle contained English gin, Perhaps not; I am not sure; taste it yourself." The clerk, baying done so, replies, "I think it is simply strong vodka." The coroner, tossing off another glass: "No, really. It tastes like gin." The Clerk-, tasting the Liquor again, "I still think itis only vodka." The bottle having gradually become em.pty. the Coroner proceeded to dictate in a decisive tone: "Writes An empty bottle was found on the table, and all measures taken to ascertain what it contained were of no use." A Ruskin Thought. To be content in utter darkness and ignorance is indeed unmanly, and there- fore we think that to leve and find knowledge must be always right. Yet wherever pride has any share in the work even knowledge and light may be ill pursued. Knowledge is good, and light is good. yet man perished in seek- ing knowledge, and the moths perish in seeking light, and if we who are crushed before the moth will not accept such mystery as is needful to us we shall perish in like manner. None but the proud will mourn over this, for we may always know more if we choose by working on, but the pleasure is, I think, to humble people, in knowing that the journey is endless the treasure inexhaustible.—Ruskin. Lambert's' Oaks. - From Lambert's Oaks, formerly an imi, in the parish of Woodmansterne, England, the famous Oaks stakes ac- quires its name. The house was built by a society called the "Hunter'club," under a lease from the Lambert family It afterward became the residence of the unfortunate General Burgoyne, froth whom it passed to the eleventh Earl of Derby, whose grandson, the twelfth earl, greatly improved it. Elbows and Knees. If the elbows of men's coats and the knees of trousers are out of shape, lily a dame cloth on them and fold up for a couple of hours. Lay on the ironing board, smooth and pull gently until they lie flat and'take their original lines, then press, under cloth, with a hot iron. Dry thoroughly with the iron. Spong- ing with borax water will remove the shiny appearance of much worn coats and dress skirts. If One Could DeaCh the Rainbow. Many iMprobable and impossible things would happen if you could only get in reach of "the rainbow?' The little Turk is told that if he would have a silver head, with gold teeth and. ruby eyes, he has hut to touch the orange stripe. In Greece they say that the person so unfortunate as to stumble over the end ot' the bow will have his or her sex immediately changed. Notion Earthquake. Mrs. Houser (hearing tremendous noise in the kitchen)—Great goodness, Bridget, what was that, an earthquake shock? Bridget (calmly picking up the pieces of glass)—No mune only a little jar. Her Unintended Satire. "Charley, dear," exclaimed young Mrs Torkins, "the paper has a sketch of you as a rising young reformer." "Yes. I thuught that would sur- prise and please you. What did. you think of the biography?" "Oh, Charley, dear, it is too good to be true:"—Washington Star.
