consist mainly of kiln -burnt bricks, . huge
rough and cut stones and vitrified mortar -
almost hidden from sight by the sands
which have been accumulating for centuries,
are 198 feet in height and nearly 800 yards

has given much time to excavating,mapping

its vitrified appearance to be the re-
sults of numerous lightning strokes, con-
clusions which (taken in connection with
the tradition that the tower was "destroyed
by fire from heaven") forms an interesting
subject for thought. Porter also says that
with the exception of natural accumulation
and decay the tower is in his estimation,
almost in the exact condition as it was when
abandoned at the time of the confusion of
tongues.

Wonder's of Sleep•
ay,4{bseems to be no limit to the possible
accomplishments of the human mind while
in that state known as sleep. Condorcet,
the great mathematician, solved one of his
most difficult problems while asleep—one
which he had failed to solve while awake.
Peichart, of the University of Basle,wrotea
sermon while asleep. Coleridge the "dream•
ing philosopher," composed Kubla Khan
while fast asleep. Next morning he said
that he was sure there had been an acquisi-
tion to his literature, but he was too negli-
gent to write it out. A few days later he
attempted to recall the verses, but they had
in moat part fled from his mind. The poem
as it now stands is only a fragment.
Parata, the Maori Sea Monster.
, The Maoris of New Zealand and the ad-
joining island have a strange belief con-
cerning the cause of the ebb and flow of the
tides. These phenomena they attribut-
ed to, a huge water breathing dragon which
they -call Parata, who is said to do this work
by powerful and regular respirations or in-
gurgitations and regurgitations of water.
W ith one tribe in Australia and another in
the Sandwich Islands it is customary to
speak of a drowned person having fallen into
the great throat of Parata, a superstition
which proves a connection between these
widely separated islands at a remote period
of their history. Tne New Zealands also
have a myth which tells them that their isl-
and was originally populated by this same
water breathing monster, which is said to
have brought a loaded canoe in his mouth
from some far -away land. A cunning priest
confined in the monster's mouth with the
others recited acharm which caused Parata
to disgorge his load in time for those in the
canoe to land safely on the c 'ast of what is
now New Zealand. The words of this charm
are still known to the natives and repeated
in times of great danger.
Superstitions About the Aurora Borealis.
The ancients viewed the aurora borealis
with superstitious awe—always looking
upon it as an omen of direful disaster. It
is not unusual for old time descriptions of
battles to make allusions to the " awful "
display of aurora borealis, or " Northern
Lights," which preceded them. The ancient
inhabitants of the lands bordering the Medi-
terranean Sea called the aurora by names
which expressed the different colors—such
L:" " LL
.sal chastnate,"bolides, trabes'etc. In
the annals of Clan-Macnoise is to be found
an account of s. great purple aurora which
lighted np the whole northern skies on the
night before the great battle between Lein-
ster and Munster, Ireland. In the Fall of
1859 the people of America witnessed some
•of the grandest aurora displays known to
history, and many superstitious people,
both North and South, believe even to this
day that the peculiar appearance of the
.skies at the time mentioned were a presage
of the great rebellion. On the 2d, 3d, and
29th of September, of the year mentioned
in the foregoing, brilliant auroras were re-
ported from every point in the civilized
world.
Wonderful P7oodea Libraries.
One department of the town museum at
Jissel, Germany, is made up of the most_
singular lot of books that ever greeted the
harp admiring eye of the bibliomaniac—a
library of 500 volumes, each a perfect book
made of a different kind of wood. The
back of each volume is formed of a bark of
its particular tree, the sides of the wood in
its mature state, the top of young, immature
wood, and the bottom of the same after hav-
ing been dried and seasoned. When opened
these remarkable books are found to be with-
out leaves, the inside being a box containing
the flower, seed, fruit, and leaf of the tree
from which the box book has been made.
Australia has over 1000 species of trees
large enough to work up into books, and
one Colonel Clamp, modeling from the
Cassel oddities, exhibited in a large collec-
tion of wooden books at the Colonel exposi-
tion. Each book in the Colonel's collection
was aphabetically arranged and labelled
with both the common and scientific name
of the species of tree from which the dainty
little wooden volumes were fashioned. The
collection was formed with the sole idea of
showing up the wonderful possibilities of
the Australian forests.
Taking advantage of the idea illustrated
in the wooden library at Wassel, and the
commendable efforts of Colonel Clamp,
the antipodean wood collector, Russia em-
ployed a cabinet maker during the entire
Winter of 1877-78 in making a library of the
woods found in the extensive Russian for-
ests. These were classified and arranged
for the Russian exhibit at the Paris Expos-
itions of both 1878 and 1389. As in the
Cassel library, this Russiau wood collection
showed the wood in its several growths, as
well as fruit, leaves, and seeds, either f
natural or imitated in wax.
Row the " Big Dipper " Has Changed.
One of the most notable of examples of
the constant and yet almost imperceptible
changes taking place in the heavens is to be
found in the motion of the seven bright
stars collectively known as "the Big Dip-
per." Huggins, the noted astronomer, was
for long engaged in proving that five of these
stars are moving in one direction, while the
ether two are moving in a direction directly
contrary. Professor Flammarion has reduc-
ed the Huggins calculations and theories to
a system, arranging them upon charts.
These ingeniously constructed heavenly out-
lines show that 100,000 years ago the "Dip-
per "stars were arranged in the fohn of a
cross, and that 100,000 years hence tliey
will have assumed the shape of an elongated
diamond, stretching out over three nr four
times as much space as they now oceapy.
The Tower of' Babel.
Three different pike of ruins in Babylonia
claim the distinction of being the remnants
xf the original tower, the building of which
3aused the " confusion of tongues." The
first of the three is the celebrated Nimrod's
Tower, near Akkurkef ; the second on the
east bank of the Euphrates River, five
miles above the modern city of Hillah ;
third, the conical mound known as Birs
4limre ; six miles and a hall southwest of
A Monster Rose Bl*
The trunk of a rose bush or tree which
has been in full bloom at Ventura, Cal.,
all Summer is three feet in circumference
at the ground. The first branch, which
juts out at a height of about four feet from
the ground,.is eight inches in diameter, or
about two feet in circumference. It was
planted in 1876- from a slip obtained in the
Centennial Exhibition, and, although sever-
al wagon -loads of limbs are annually pruned
off, it now covers an area of nearly 2,(f-0
square feet. It is predicted that by then
time it is twenty five years old it will have
outstripped the gigantic rose tree at Col-
ogne, which is 1 nown to be more than 300
years old, and is less that four feet in cir-
cumference.
The Oddest W atoh.
A watchmaker in Newcastle, England,
recently completed a set of three gold shirt
studs, in one of which there is a watch that
keeps absolutely correct time, the dial of
which is only three -sixteenths of an inch in
diameter. The three studs are connected
by a strip of silver inside the shirt bosom,
the watcb contained in the middle one being
wound up by turning the stud above. To
set the hands it is only necessary to give the
lower stud the proper twist.
Lucky Friday.
The notion that Friday is an unlucky day
is the worst nonsense that ever entered the
human head, says the St. Louis Globe -
Democrat. In Chicago there are half a
dozen families of Fridays who have as good
luck as any other people, and in early Ameri-
can history the day was peculiarly lucky.
Columbus sailed on Friday, August '21. On
Friday, October 12, he discovered land ; on
Friday, January4, he started home to Spain,
on Friday, March 5, he reached Palos. In
1493 he arrived at Hispaniola on his second
voyage on Friday, November 22, and on
Friday he discovered the continent. Any
other country's history will show as many
lucky as unlucky Fridays, and as for a man
being named Friday, "what's in a name?"
DICTIONARY OF SNOBBISMS-
Only vulgar women pay visits ; ladies
who are ladies return calls.
People of ton do not break up housekeep-
ing ; they relinquish it.
A public speaker is never applauded to
his face, but cheered to the echo.
Illiterate persons will oftentimes say that
the day began, etc. This is bad form. Days
are invariably ushered in.
It is only in private that musicians play.
In public they confine their energies in dis-
coursing most eloquent music.
A woman does not cry ; but she may oc-
casionally burst into tears, or scalding tears
may course down her cheeks.
It is vulgar to say that a man got rich.
The proper caper is to remark that he
acquired a competence or attained to af-
fluence.
In the bright lexicon of literature there
is no such word as fail, though a man may
become embarrassed or his affairs go into
liquidation.
A young woman never plays or performs
on the piano ; she renders selections from
the great masters and sometimes gives a
recital.
Any new enterprise—he it a railroad, a
government, a horse race or piggery—is
never begun, or opened, or started ; invari-
ably is it inaugurated.
In ordinary conversation it is well enough
to speak of doors being opened ; but in
composition never fail to say that the doors
were thrown open.
Remember that when a criminal leaves
this world through the instrumentality of
the gallows he falls with a dull, sickening
thud, or is launched into eternity.
It may be unnecessary to suggest to young
writers that they never have after-dinner
speeches at public banquets, although they
quite commonly indulge in postprandial elo-
quence.
It is social solecism to say that Bob Yuse-
less has been discharged, or has got the G.
B. The approved form is : Mr. -Robert
Yuseless has severed his connection with the
establishment of Biasfolds & 'rating.
Never say a man fell to the ground and•
was killed, but the man was pereipi-fated to
mother earth, a lifeless mass of hum anity.
A lifeless corpse is also authorised by exten-
sive usage, although somewhat in the nature
of pleonasm.
Do not say that Miss Blank was the cen-
tre of attraction at the assembly. If you
would make yourself clear and perspicuous
tell your readers that she was the cynosure
of neighboring eyes or the observed of all
observors.
In short, as a general rule, remember' that
it is a cardinal principle of polite literature
never to call a spade a spade, but that sharp
instrument with which the Theban hus-
bandman lays bare the breast of our greet
mother.
The Largest Serpent _
The largest serpent of which accurate
measurements have been taken and noted
was an anaconda which Dr. Gardner found
dead and suspended to the fork of a tree
during his travels in Mexico. It was drag-
ged out into the open ground by two horses
and was found to measure thirty-seven feet
in length. Inside of it were discovered the
bones and flesh of a horse in a half-digested
state, and there was no doubt that it had
swallowed the animal whole. Dr. Gardner
and other travellers say that anacondas,
pythons and boas attain a length of over
forty feet, but there is no recorded instance
of one having been encountered longer than
thatwhich has been mentioned,though many
persons have sten serpents alive which they
estimate to be of considerably greater size.
White pique dresses have beenrevived,and

GRAVENHURST, Sept. 30. —Further inves-
tigation discloses the fact that there is hard-
ly anything else spoken of in this town but
Sane Murray's wonderful recovery. His
case is considered marvellous, - and no cure
at the shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre ever
startled people like his case has this section
of the community. In the hotels you hear
his name mentioned, and being well-known
along the different towns on the Northern
railway, Murray's case attracts unusual in-
terest.
Dr. Cornell is one of the frost popular
men in Gravenhurst. He runs a large drug
store, and has a very extensive practise.
He stands high in- the medical profession,
and is Grand Trunk physician for that sec-
tion. •His drug business is one of the larg-
est in Northern Ontario. He was seen at
his office. He said: "I have known Mur-
ray for a long time. He was employed on
th - Grand Trunk railway as brakesman for
several years. His fingers were crushed,
and being one of the Grand Trunk physi-
cians I looked after his case. One night in
June, '91, he was carried into my office.
He had fallen down on the street. I found
that he was suffering from paralysis. He
has been disabled until recently, butI don't
care to talk very much of his case. I am
not seeking cheap notoriety."
"But, doctor, I suppose you have no ob-
jection to answer a few queries to substan-
tiate what Murray says?"
"Well, no ; go ahead."
"Was Murray ill for a long time, and is
it true that his disability claims were paid
by the Grand Trunk. You attended him
for some time, you say, and you should
know ?"
"Yes, I attended him, and he was pretty
low. Although I never give up hope, I
thought he would never be able to get about
again. After he fell the first time he kept
poking about and took three; or four other
spells. He was then confined to his house,
and later on took to his bed. Boils and
eruptions broke out on his legs and arms,
neck and face, and his blood was in a very
bad way. He kept gradually gettingworse,
and everybody thought he would die. He
complained of his back very much. I at-
tributed his disease largely to overwork. I
believed he would never be able to resume
his duties again. He was paid his total
disability Maim by the Grand Trunk at
that time."
"How does it come that he is about and
working again?"
"Well, you see as a professional man I
hardly like to say. It might look as if I
were. lending myself to some advertising
schenfe, and I would rather not say any-
thing on that subject.
"But," doctor, that is not fair. Does Sam
Murray know what cured him?"
"Well, he says, and everybody says, it
was some pills he bought here that cured
him."
"What pills, doctor. Do you know the
name of them?"
" There you go again. Now, I said I did
not want to put myself in a false position
before the profession."
" But he bought the pills in your drug
store. What pills were they ?"
" Well, I'll tell you the truth, they were
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and remember, I want
you to say, if you say anything about me,
this is the truth. Sam got the pills here,
and be says they cured him. I have sold a
lot of them to others and they all speak
highly of them."
"Doctor, would you as a physician pre-
scribe these pills in your practise for kid-
ney troubles ?"
" Yes, I would. Knowing the active
principle of the pills they are such as I
would prescribe for patients suffering from
ki ney troubles, for they are both a tonic
and a diuretic."
" Doctor, is it true that diseased nidneys
poison theblood?"
" Yes the blood gets full of uric acid."
" Will the curing of diseased kidneys
cleanse the blood of uric acid and impuri-
ties ?"
" Well, it is only natural to sup pose that
if you remove the cause of a disease you can
expect a cure."
" Do you consider Sam Murray's case a
remarkable one?"
"Yes, -1 certainly do."
A NEWSPAPER MAN.
Fred Harbridge,of the Gravenhurst Banner,
was seen. He said : Sam I 1 urray's case is
causing a good deal of talk. We used to
publish paragraphs that he was -not expect-
ed to live over night. Every week we ex-
pected his death notice. Sam got hold of
Dodd's Kidney Pills through alittle book that
was dropped into his house called Kidney
Talk, and he took the pills and is as well as
ever. When he`was that bad that part of
his life insurance was paid by the Gram
Trunk you may judge he was pretty low.
He recovered so rapidly and miraculously
that everybody is talking about his case.
We had something in the paper about. it.
There is no denying that he is cured, and
that Dodd'aPills itdid. Anybody in Graven-
horst will tell you that.
A GRAND TRUNK OFFICAL.
Mr. J. T. Torrey, Grand Trunk agent at
Gravenhurst, was seen. Mr. Torrey is a
middle-aged man, and a great favorite in
the place. He was asked if he knew Mur-
ray, and he said " Yes. I know two Mur -
rays, Sam Murray and his brother. I put
both of them to work as brakesmen on the
Grand Trunk. I remember when Sam was
taken ill, and nobody expected he would get
better."
" Did he get his total disability money
from the Grand Trunk."
" Yes, he got his sick benefits first
through me, and then when it was expected
he would die his total disability claim was
paid through me also. I never thought Sam
would recover. He says he was cured by
taking Dodd's Kidney Pills."
TIER PROPRIETORS. _
Mr. J. A. McKee of the firm of L. A.
Smith & Co., manufacturers of Dodd's Kid-,
ney Pills was seen at their place of bust.
nese in Toronto. He was verybusybut was
willing to`speak of the Murray case. He
said in answer to some questions. "Yes,
wehaveheard of Murray's wonderful cure
at Gravenhurst through taking our Dodd's
Kidney Pills. But his case is only one of
many. Here are several others just as
startling. " fulling a bundle of letters out,
of a drawer. " We have not been adver
tising`these pills to any great extent, and
we are astonished at their rapid sale. The -
only way to account for it is that they sell
on their merits. Those who use them tell
their friends about them and they are ad-
vertised in that way. These pills are a new
departure in ,medicine.. The formula has-
been used successfully by one of the most
eminent specialists in the world for the cure
of kidney diseases: But_ iiia feerVicesrare

A certain percentage of alcohol has, to
be put up in such mixtures to keep the
medicine. This alcohol, it has been
time and again demons trated, counteracts the
beneficial effects of the drugs contained in
the mixture, for there is nothing worse for
the kidneys than alcohol, and it defeats the
objects for which the remedy is intended.
We,. obviate thisdifficulty by`having: the
active principles only of the drugs put up in
concentrated form in the shape of a pill,
which is easily taken. They are neatly put
up in boxes with the trade mark ' Dodd's
Kidney Pills' on each box, and are for sale
by all druggists and dealers in medicines at
fifty cents per box. We will mail them
direct on receipt of price."
From these interviews with and the in-
vestigations made your correspondent has
"proved beyond,a doubt that such a man as
Sam Murray exists, and that the facts of his
case as published in the Gravenhurst Banner
are true in every particular. Not only does
Sam Murray himself speak out, but, his
evidence is supported by documentary
proofs and also by Dr. Cornell, a well known
physician in Gravenhurst, the mayor of the
town, the, station master, and others. Also
that Dodd's Kidney Pills effected his cure.
after the case had been given up as hope-
less.

The Bank of England is at present au
thorissd to issue notes to the value of £16,-
450,000 on securities (£11,015,100 of which
is debt owing by the Government to the
Bank). Beyond that all notes issued must
be represented by Gold coin or bullion ectu-

If the Bank increases such deposit of gold
it can increase its issue of notes to the same
extent. For instance, in the week ending
December 18, 1889, there was . gold in the
hands of the Issue Department to the value
of £18,228,805 and iu that week the value
of the notes issued was £34,428,805, being
that amount of -gold plus the value of issues
against securities,then authorised, of £16-,
200,00 ; while in the week ending August
the 19, 1892, the gold in the hands. of the

A Complete Cure by HOOD'S
SARSAPARILLA.
This is from Mr. D. M. Jordan, a re-
tired farmer, and one of the most re-
spected citizens of Otsego Co., N. Y.
"Fourteen years ago I had an attack of the
gravel, and have since been troubled with my
Liver and. Kidneys
gradually growing worse. Three years ago I
got down so low that I could scarcely walk.
I looked more like a corpse than a living being.
I had no appetite and for five weeks I ate
nothing but gruel. I was badly emaciated
and had no more color than a marble statue.
Hood's Sarsaparilla was recommended and I
thought I would try it. Before I had finished
the first bottle I noticed that I -felt better, suf-
fered less, the inflammation of the blad-
der had subsided, the color began to return to
my face, and I began to feel hungry. After
I had ttaken three bottles I could eat anything
without hurting me. Why, I got so hungry
that I had to eat 5 times a day. I have now
fully recoered, thanks to
Hood's Sarsaparilla
I feel well and run well. A11 viho know
