ALBERT k'E'.,CLINT R sidenceoveratore OPPOSITE TOW HALL 111.E CLINTON AEW ERA LEGENDARY LORE, STORIES STILL CURRENT AMONG DIFFERENT PEOPLES. Legends Popular in Osrmwny--..Tonoh• Ing Legend of the Austrohon Alps— Indian History Abounds With Ntriking Legends. Legendary lore is so aooeptable to the people of Germany that the old and young alike are familiar with the rloh stories of wisdom or romance that have come to them from a picturesque past. It never 000ure to the sincere German mind that any one can make light of such stories as those that are told at the fireside on winter nights when the storm -king is abroad in hie might. They have legends of love, and legends of hate, legends to make laughter, and legends that are dark. stern and tragic, like those of the Black Forest. No traoo of conscious Christian- ity can be found in them, but there is often a lesson of heathen philosophy,00m- bined with weird,wild tales of tragio or- igin. One of the legends still popular among the credulous is that of " The Wild Hunt," and old folks tell it to the ohll- dren when a sudden storm is heard in the night, as the wind rushes by. "It is the wild huntsmen, take thou oare,"and the children are glad to be safe between their feather beds. The legend rune thus: The Lowonberg, one of the seven moun- tains,was the hunting ground of a wicked squire who hunted every day, not except- ing Sunday, when man and beast wore supposed to rest. But this was not the worst. He had no respect for the oharoh, and on one 000aelon hunted a wild boar and drove it into a church, where he slew it at the toot of the altar. For this act of sacrilege he wap torn to pieces by a pack of hounds pent from the infernal regions for that purpose. Ever since then the Sabbath -breaker's ghost is doomed to ride in a spectral train with a band of huntsmen, who, like himself, are expiat- ing their sins,and with a pack of demon hounds at their hoels,he being doomed to lead the wild hunt forever. A legend of the Australian Alps is very touching, bordering as It does, on one of the mysteries of religion. The wife of Pilate is believed to wander in this dis- trict in order to receive a punishment whioh is not eternal but limited to the Day of Judgment. Her doom is together the Boole of unbaptized infants. She L their keeper and on summer nights she leads them through the earth and flax fields, where with their shadowy hands they tear off all the blighted ears, and the harmful ineeot9,and bear them away in their little pitchers. One mother of an nnbaptized child wept Inconsolably for her lost offspring. Suddenly there appeared before her a strange child, a little bright-eyed thing of 4 or 5 years who carried a heavy pit- cher and addressed the frightened woman: "Mother, you must atop Drying. Your tears fill my pitcher and cause it to over- flow. They make it so heavy I oan not keep up with my companions. And they make me unhappy for no fault of mina own." The mother ceased crying, and soon after she saw a a radiant figure surround- ed by a number of little ones. and the happiest faoe among them was that of her own little ohild, whose pitcher was now light and easily borne. Indian history abounds with legends. Here is one of the two water jars. One of the water jars was gorgeously painted on the outside, and looked very beautiful to the eye. but contained noth- ing but worthless trash, while the other was of plain brown earthenware, and had no paint to make it attractive, but was filled with things of great value, such as flocks and herds, all the riches that the heart could desire. When the two water jars were finished, the wise men called up the people, the tribes of the Pueblos and the Navajos, and commanded thorn to make their choice of the two. The '1 • - ajos were permitted to choose first t n. they seized upon the handsomely -pal. :. jar which was worthless, so the other be- oame the only ohoice of the fortunate Pue- blos. The wise men then said: "Here is tho eternal fate of the two nations. You, Pueblos, will enjoy an abundance of the good things of life; you will live in houses of your own,and have plenty of flocks and herds; but you, Navajos, will be a poor and wandering race, destitute of Dom fort, and greedy of show rather than for things of real value." These traits are distinguishing traits of the two tribes to this day. The Indian legend of the origin of war, is this: One hundred and eighteen years after the creation of the world, Kitohi Manitou, a great spirit, looked down on the earth for the first time, and saw old mon and women corning out of their lodges, gray-haired and stooping,and when they tried to walk they full to pieces from extreme old age. The Groat Spirit then thought that he had made tho In- dians to live too long, and that they in- creased too rapidly. 8o ho changed his first plan and sent out four Spirits of Thunder to tell the Indians that they must fight. They obeyed, after whioh they dooreased rapidly. Tho Indians who died In battle were fortunato,as the Great Spirit kept their souls near him. PAIN -KILLER THE GREAT Family Medicine of the Age.

How to Have Beautiful Hair. When nature has neglected to orown a head with silken tresses, one can, in some measure, remedy the slight by persistent- ly brushing the hair. A good quality of brush should be used. A hair brush should have long,soft bristles that will go through the hair and touch the scalp: then every particle of dust and dirt oan bo re- moved. A comb' Is seldom necessary if the hair is carefully brushed; if uaod at all the comb should be a coarse one. A fine comb irritates the scalp to a hurtfu 1 degree and itis quite apt to break and split the hair. Brush the hair for five minutes before retiring at night, braid it loosely and permit it to hang. Never sleep with pins in the hair. The best hairpins to use are made of bone, amber or tortoise shell. Coarse, sharp plias out and tear the hair and should never be used. It is an old- time saying, and well worth a trial, that "One hundred strokes of the hair brnsh every night will make one's hair like Bilk." Masks for Soldiers In Warfare. Masks for soldiers engaged in warfare in the colonies, not as a defense against the sword or the bullet of the enemy, but as a protection from the no less dangerous cohorts of fevers—such is the original pro• position which has been submitted to the Academy of Medicine. It emanates from Dr. Henrtop, professor at the Rheims School of Medicine, who argues that the use of this mask would prevent the germs from penetrating to the lungs of the sol- dier engaged In colonial warfare, who, as he le not aoollmated, and is overworked, is much more liable to attack from fever than other people. In short, he maintains, it would place a barrier between the dele- terious atmosphere and the organs of res- piration.—London Times. Prompt People. Don't live a single hour of your life without doing exactly what Is to be done in it, and going straight through it from beginning to end.

It is wonderful to see how many hours these prompt people contrive to make of a day; It is as if they picked up the moments whioh the dawdlers lost.
