GOLD CANNON BALLS.
The Jungle ItIldden .Trentsure of an
East Indian Princess. -
Not long ago an old Peasant was
wandering in the jungle about half a
mile from the city of Ahmadnager, in
India, when he found a round ball of
metal. It was black and looked like
an old iron round shot, but when the -
old man lifted it he was struck with
its immense wgight, Ile earried it
hem° and found on scratching it that
it was a lump of solid gold. It weighed
eight pounds and. its sale made the
finder rich for life.
There are many more of these can-
non balls, each worth a small fortune,
lying hid or buried irt the reeesses of
this jungle, and their story is a curious
one. At the end of the sixte.enth cen-
tury Akbar, the greatest emperor Hin-
dustan ever saw, was at the height
of his glory. At the head of his con-
quering army he summoned Ahroad-
nager to surrender. The city and its
rich treasure were then under the rule
of the Princess Cande. Knowing that
resistance could be but short, and in
bitter rage against the oppressor, she
caused all the treasure of gold and
silver to be melted down. She cast
the metal into cannon balls and en-
graved, upon each nialedictions against
the conqueror. These were fired into
the jungle and when Akbar entered
the city, instead of the rich hoard he
had hoped to win, he found a treasury
absolutely empty.
That this- is not the only occasion
upon which cannon balls of gold have
been cast is proved by the fact that in
the _ treasury of the shah of Persia
there may be seen in the same room
where stands the famous peace&
throne two small globular projectile
of gold. They were estimated by a re-
cent visitor t6 weigh about thirty-one
pounds each and are roughly made.
Their origin or purpose is, however,
totally forgotten. It is only known
that they are very old.
THE SHANK OF THE SHOE.
What the GlAzed, Metallic Marks
Thereon Told the Broker.
Half a score of clerks in one of the
largest brokerage houses in New York
were astounded one morning when
one by one they were called into their
employer's private office and asked to
hold up their feet and show the shanks
of their shoes. They thought the "old
man" had gone quite mad. Each
young man as he entered the office
was told to sit down and put his foot
up on a corner of the desk where it
could be examined. Then the head of
the house put on his glasses and very
carefully scrutinized the shank of the
shoe.
When all had been put through this
examination he called' tile entire force
of clerks into his office and explained
to them why this unusual examination
had been made.
"You are well aware," said he "that
I will not have a drinking man in my
employ if I know it. For some time
have had AO reasons for believing
that several a the young men before
me have been indulging quite too
much. Now I know it Here are the
marks of the bar rail on the bottoms
of your shoes."
Several of the young men braced
themselves against the wall and lifted
their feet as a black.sraith lifts the foot
of a horse. Su4e enough, there were
the glazed, metallic marks on the dry
leatker; They were the evidences Of
guilt, and the young men's faces
showed it.
"It's unmistakable proof," said the
head of the house. "You may fix up
your breath at the drug store and the
barber can clean up your eyes and
face, but you neglect the shanks of
your shoes." •
That afternoon three young men
cleaned out their desks and gave the
keys to the managing clerk.
Care of Books.
A lover of books will always take
good care of them. Efe never holds
the book by the corner of the cover,
never turns down leaves, never lays
the book down open, either with the
face .downward or en its back, and
never breaks the binding by - opening
the book too forcibly. He turns the ,
leaves one by one, taking great care
not to soil or tear them, and uses the
volume gently. It makes no differ-
ence if the book be cheap or worn;
h.0 always handles it gently.

'THE TRUE FISHERMAN.
He Enjoys Nature's Beauties and In
Not a Mere Butcher.
The angler's art is but a pretext, or,
rather, the incentive to a ramble, eand
not the sole object of the fisherman,
unless, alas, he belongs to that too
coramon variety, the man whose sole
object is his catch. uch a man fishes
with. a worm, hides fingerlings in the
depth of his basket and photographs
his catch as a witness of his crimes.
He is not a. fisherman, but a butcher.
A yellow primrose on the river's bank
is V him a primrose and nothing
more.
The true fisherman loves to catch
fish, to match his wits against the
weary trout, but as he wanders from
pool to pool the songs of the birds
greet him restfully. Every turn in the
stream reveals a nook in which strange
wild flowers nestle. The gentle ex-
citement of the sport prevents the
scene from becoming monotonous. The
element of chance, the uncertainty of
the catch, add the drop of tabasco
sauce which gives zest to the day. And
the noontide meal by the brink of the
stream! When did a meal have a more
delightful flavor? Dehnonicci never
served a trout like unto those we have
eaten by the banks of a mountain
brook. with the clear blue sky above,
the -waving forest round About and
the murmuring stream at our feet.
The hour of contemplation comes
afterward, with the pipe of peace in
our hand instead of the relinquished
rod. How far off the city seems! Are
there such things as corporations,
trusts, stocks, bonds, electric lights
that amaze the sight, harsh warnings
of trolley gongs, the rumble and grind
of the wheels and the brakes on the
elevated road which affright the ear?
The harshest note that breaks the still-
ness here is the boom of the bittern in
the distant marsh.
Home to camp the fisherman goes,
taking a east in this silent pool in
which the trout rose in the forenoon
to his cast, but *missed the fly, or in
that dark hole deep under the bank
in which a vigilant eye may detect the
brown sides- of a trout with lazily Wav-
ing fins and tail, , an old campaigner
not easily caught. -Dr. A. T. Bristow,
in World's Work.
CHINESE CONTRASTS.
We bake bread; in China they steam
it.
We divide the day into twenty-four
hours; they into twelve. • '
We locate intellect in the brain; they,
locate it in the stomach.
•
Our calendar is based on solar time;
theirs'is based on lunar time.
With us the Beat of honor is on the
right; with them it is en the left.
Our given name precedes the sur-
name; theirs follows the surname.
The needle of our -eompass points t�
the north; theirs points to the south.
We have standard weights and meas-
ures; their weights and measures diffea
in each district.
Our children stand facing the teach-
er to recite their lessons; theirs turn(
their backs to the teacher.
Our watchmen quietly go thet
rounds with a view to catching
thieves; theirs beat gongs and yell to
frighten them away.
We bury our dead a few days after
their decease; they often keep theirs in
the house in heavy, sealed coffins for
years.
The Hookah In India.,
The hookah is smoked as a refresh-
ment and sign of fellowship by the
natives of India and not merely as a
luxury. When a group of natives are
, seated together and, as is the custom,
the hookah is passed around to each in
turn it is considered very bad manners
for any one to decline to have a few
puffs. If the hookah is thus refused
in a friend's house or while one is the
guest of another it is regarded as ail
insult. If for any reason a native is
put out of caste the fact Is strictly,
marked by his former caste fellow're
refusal to smoke with him, and anal
one who eats, drinks or smokes with
an outcast Is himself outcastedaa

"Executive ability:" repeated, dtir ac-

"Why, the quality of holding subor-

taking credit to ourselves for their sue-,

SERVANTS• IN ECUADOR.
The Traveler Is Forced to Hire
Many to Serve num.
If you were living in Ecuador and
wished to hire a servant you could
hardly get one by himself or herself,
but would be compelled to take up with
a drove of them, probably far outnum-
bering your own family. For example,
with a cook you would have to receive
her husband and children, and perhaps
also her father and mother, into your
house to bed. and board, and each ivould
bring along all his or her portable prop-
erty, consisting mainly of domestic
pets,. such as pigs, chickens, rabbits,
dogs and other "live stock." -The hus-

to the bosom of his family and yours.
It would be considered downright in-
humanity to refuse them food and shel-
ter, and not a servant in Ecuador
would work for so mean a master or
mistress. The children of your cook
may be utilized for lieht services, such
as running errands, weeding the gar-
den and tending the baby, but the nu-
merous brood is apt to be "light finger-
ed" and certain to be lousy, dirty and
probably diseased. There is no help
for it, however, because "el costumbre"
has decreedthat for every servant you
hire you must expect at least a dozen
extra mouths to feed.
Nor Is this the worst of it. Occasion-
ally the cook's relatives from another
village come to pay her a visit of a fort-
night or two -lasting as long as you
will tolerate it -men, women and chil-
dren, bringing more dogs, pigs, chick-
ens, etc., to be housed and fed. Fortu-
nately, they are not accustomed to
"downy beds of ease" or sumptuous
living, but consider themselves in
clover if plentifully supplied with
beans, corn meal and potato soup, and
will sleep contentedly on the stones of
the patio or the straw of the stable.
The danger is that some of the stranger
hangers on may not be as honest as
the cook herself is supposed to be, and
cases are known where thieves and
even murderers thus gained admission
to the inside of the case with disas-
trous results.

When the Barber Was a Wit..
In original literatbre the barber is
a great figure, and. Arabian tales are
full of him. In Italy and Spain he was
often the brightest man in town, and
his shop was headquarters for wit
and intrigue. Jasamin became famous
as a poet in southern France and re-
cited his verses -with razor, scissors,
brush and comical gestures as he dress-
ed the hair and beard of fine ladies and
gentlemen in his shop. He had a great
run, made money, hived fame, and
Smiles made a book about him.

"Well," said her sweet child, "I'm

"Why would you feel -more sorry for
your father, love?"
"'Cause they'd be such a lot more of
him to ache."

NEWFOUNDLAND WRECKERS
The Bounty That Is Gl leaned. From zit
Bar ren Shore.
In bygone times it was the practice
of the Newfoundland coast folk to ap-
propriate everything they secu.red, but
this lawlessness had to be sternly re-
pressed. Now the unwritten rule itit
that they get "half their hand," or 50
per cent, as salvage. In portable and
valuable articles, such as silverware.
there is still a strong temptation to
keep the whole, but the punishment le
severe. Champagne, liquorsea.bin
stores. and the like have also a trick
of disappearing, and in the poorest
fisher's cottage you will come upon
rare china, dainty napery, ellsrerware
of price and wines to tempt an epi-
cure. The salvors are reckless and un-
thinking, and as they gather 14 hun-
dreds every man pre-empts what he
can. In the rush there is nruel de-
stroyed. 'When the Herder wdet lost
in 1882 they burned whalebone iwortle
$15,000 a ton to save leather eosting
20 cents a pound. In the Emmeline
wreck of 1900 they trampled crates of
costly glassware to get at four eases
of French prayer books valued at 25
cents apiece. On one occasion -two
salvors had got ashore a piano and
were adopting the Solomon -like expe-
dient of sawing it in half when a
shrewder chum bought it from them
for a bottle of whisky looted from the
captain's cabin. When the Grasbrook
went ashore in 1890 every man on the
shore provided himself with a German
concertina, of which instruments of
torture she had a large eonsignnaent,
and to secure them packages of much
more costly freight were thrown over-
board. When the Orion, from Balti-
more for Copenhagen, struck the back
of Cape Race and went to pieces she
had a large eonsignment of bicycles
-on board, and they were auctioned in
St. John's and disposed of allover the
island. The .Abbeyraore's lading in
1898 included some cases of splendid
English rifles for Canada, and these
are now to be seen adorning every,
fisher's cottage along the shore. -P.

FOOD, WATER AND MR.
The Essential Things Out et Which
Blood Is Made.
These are the things out of vrhiels
blood is made. If the food is nutri-
tious and properly cooked, if the air is
pure and full of oxygen, if the water
Is clean and free from impurities the
blood will be rich and red and ft;11, of
vitality.
Barring physical accidents, there is
no sickness except that depending di-
rectly upon a want of food or water
or air, somethnes all three. When any,
one is sick the presumption is that he
has been trying to subsist ou poor
food or vitiated air or bad water, one
or more.
In order to have good food a person,
ought to have the first eating of it.
rood that has been missed over and
left by one person is not lit to be eaten
by another.
In order to have good air a person
ought to have the -first breathieg of it
Air that has been breathed by other
persons is not fit to breathe again.
Water should be fresh from some
spring or well. If hydrant water roust
be used let it run a bit, as the house
pipes are apt to be of lead and not
iron like the pipes that convey the wa-
ter through the city,.
Food that is relished, air that cools
and invigorates, water that Is quaffed
with eager thirst -these are the things e;
that make blood. Put fresh air Into
the lungs, good food and pure water
into °the storaaela, and nature will do
the rest.;
A Trick With an Egg.
Place two V shaped wineglasses of
the same size near the edge of a table.
In the right hand one put an egg, just
fitting the rim of the glass. Hold the
bases of the glasses firmly down, the
top rbns touching each other. Now,
with -a quick, sharp breath, blow upon
the The where the egg and the glass
meet The egg will jump to the other
glass. With a little practice this can
be done every time. Be careful to
blow in a line vrith the left hand alas&
or the egg will jump in the wrong di-
rection and land on the table with dis-
astrous results.
