Now, I had told Aurora that I ex pected to meet him, and when I came in late at her dinner the next evening I tried to placate her and make myself agreeable to the guests by repeating the remark as if it had been made to me."

That sweetheart is now the ugli est old maid you ever saw, and it sort of hurts his feelings to be reminded that he once called her his 'love with the apple blossom face.' It seems that the wife can get anything she wants if she refers to that letter at the right moment. Well, I saved that story for an emergency. ino otner evening father brought home a man with whom he was trying to drive a good bargain He told me that I should be verv agreeable to his guent and he would make it up to me."

But you were speaking of Anne's tea. Did you enjoy it?" "M', no, I can't say that I did, though I fully expected to. You see, in tho morning Anne came over to bor row my candlesticks and shades.

Plant, two more of my friend, have fallen asleep. They were not my near and dear friends, but tbey were friends to humanity and I am human. I knew them well and was always pllased with their presence. It ia a good sign when you are glad to meet even an acquaintance a good sien for him and it is a good one for you when your acquaintances meet you gladly. Kimon Peter Richardson min istered here several years and I was always cheered with his presence and learned something I did not know. He was a walking educator, a man of wit and wisdom and of great philanthropy. Sometimes he cnt to the quick, but bis knife was tdiarp and left no ragged edges. I recall an incident that lllus truted his earnest readiness to reply to a man who refused a little chanty to a very poor blind woman who wished to go to Atlanta to have Dr. Calbonu re move a cataract from her eye. Simon Peter very earnestly related her con dition and her extreme poverty and said, "Please give me half a dollar, only half a dollar." The merchant re plied, "No, I can't do it. We merchants are bled to death by these couutry people and we bave got to Btop. I tell yon, Uncle Simon, we aro tied to death, you must excuse me." Simon Peter looked at bim as if bo were amar.eil. After a brief silence be Baid: "Bled are yon. Let me show j on something. He took off his long linen duster, then unbuttoned the wristband on his left arm, rolled up the sleeve and pointing to two little Bcarn near the elbow said: "A long timo ago a fool doctor tried to bleed me and made thoee scirs. He missed the vein and got no blood, bnt the scars are there. I am afraid that is the experience ol a good many peo ple who auk a little charity for the poor. They get no blood but leave a scar. We who eaw the point smiled audi bly. The merchant' face reddened under the sarcasm. H? suddenly pulled out the money drawer and handed a dollar to the old man, and said: 'Vive this to her. I don't want any of your scars about me."

J c I'rigothernpy is stated to be already in vogue at several places in Europe The treatment consists in standing the patient, well protected with furs, in a freezing box cooled to 203 degrees or more below zero, this daily cold bath being coutiuued ten miuiitcs. The head is allowed to protrude from the bos, as breathing of the intensely cold air would be daugerous. The effect is to powerfully stimulate Ihe cireula tion, creating an immediate aud raven ous appetite, and tending to bauish yspepsia aud various kidney aud iver diseases, as well as nervous ex haustion and its attendant melancholy nnd depression. Tho whole body is aroused to vigorous action. Professor J. B. Johnson, of Wash- ugtou University, St. Louis, has made porno interesting tests of the behavior f iron or steel stirmps, as used for hanging floor-beams from brick walls, when exposed to fire, and finds that, under such circumstances, they soon becomo red-hot, nnd then burn their way rapidly through the cud of the beam, while, at tho same time, they softeu and beud down, the result be ing that the beam drops out of its jearing in fifteen or twenty miuutes after the lire reaches it. Most archi tects are careful to see that such sup porting members are fireproofed with wire-lath in I plaster: but it may be well to call attention again to tho im perative necessity for doing so. A singular bacterial disease proves to be the cause of decay of ancient metallic implements and other objects. it appears in tne lorm ot small ex crescences or "ulcerations, " which be come the centres of rapid oxidation, and Dr. W. Frazer, an Irish antiqua rian, finds that all antiques of copper or its alloys with tin are liable to be infected. In bronze, remarkable dis integration is produced, the metal be ing gradually reduced to an amorphous powder. The disease is believed, with great reason, to have infective powers, spreading like leprosy through the metal, aud even being conveyed to fresh surfaces irom tho affected spots. Counterfeiters blva not overlooked the spots of bronze disease, from which, it is asserted, they have inocu lated their false antiques to impart a genuine appearance. Ice storms are commonly believed to be due to rain falling on surface cold enough to freeze it. The fact that the objects iced are often com- ! W at ' " parativeiy warm maces tins simple theory insufficient, and observations during a remarkable ice storm last October, in Germany, have proven to Dr. W. Memharuus that the phenom enon is one of the singular conditions of liquids known as "superfnsiou." In this state the liquid has a fieezin temperature but is kept from solidifying by some special cirenmstance. In the storm observed, reports from ' elevated stations sbowed that the moisture was condensed in an upper air-stratum above freezing point in temperature. and that the ram fell through a colder stratum, becoming chilled to freezing temperature, but remaining liquid un til tbe drop was deformed by strikinp a resisting body. Oat of Order. While Mr. Webster was once ad dressing the Senate on the subject of internal improvements, and every Senator was listening with close atten tion, the Senate clock commenced striking, bnt instead of striking twice 2 p. m., continued to strike without cessation more than forty times. All eyes were turned to the clock, and Mr. Webster remained silent until the clock strnck about twenty, when he thus appealed to the chair: "Mr. President, the .'lock is out of order! I have the floor!" To Fay that a loug and loud laugh from every Senator and person in the august chamber was indulged in is a faint description of the merriment this exquisite pan produced. liver, in South Carolina. When he returned he told me exultingly of the guod time he had and about a won derful revival that occurred in Lid old borne church the great est revival he said that be had witnessed for many years. "How many converts did you take into the church'?" said I. "Tbo tirtst week," Baid he. "we never took in nary one, but wo turned seventeen out an i purged tho church. After that the Lord blessed us, and there is many a church in this part of the country that needs tbe same medicine. " Uncle Simon left his impression upon the people in every community in which be lived. He was an honest man, a strong man, a man of convic tions, and was perfectly fearless in maintaining them. Woe to the infidel or fceptic or agonistic who encounter ed him. Woe to tbe man who de clined to go to church because be aiun i leei tne neeu ot religion, rsc doubt we have as good men now, but the preachers are rare in any denomi nation who are his equals in convinc ing and converting force.

Chicago News. All Excellent Combination. The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the Califohsia Fig Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining' the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting1 them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxa tive, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation per manently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and sub Etance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating them, make it tbe ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fig Syritp Co. only.
