aIpersian tragedy. ' ' - HIS gobllme Conrage by Which Princess Salome Escaped Her Master. James Baker, a well known traveler and writer, tells a curious story of a wer 100 years ago. The, Persian shah was besieging Tlflis, and the husband of the Princess Salome had been slain in the siege. When the Persians en tered and sacked the town Salome tried to save her young son, but he was torn from her arms and hacked in pieces before her eyes." Her own life was spared and she was borne to the camp outside the walls of Tiflis to the fhah He sold her to Djafar Bek, who Bhut her up in a castle a part of which still remains near where now is the lovely tropical botanical garden of Tiflis. Charmed by her beauty, he ask ed her to become his wife. She re fused and begged her purchaser to Blay her. The Persian gave her a night to reconsider the matter and on the next day he lay reclining on a great cushion under a tree on that hot, sun ny hillside and awaited her answer, presently .she appeared before himj veiled in a long, pure white robe, calm and stately, her face deathly pale. She advanced, her armed Jailers following her. The Persian waved his followers aside and asked the princess, "You con sent to be my wife?" "Yes," was the solemn' answer. "I consent to love you, for after the death of my husband and son it isnny destiny; there is no other fate for me. "In Georgia," skid the "princess, 'there are certain families that possess Btranse powers and dark secrets. My mother i'oretold I should be. the wife of a Djafar, and from my mother I,, too, receive these powers to read the fu ture." The Persian was Impressed by her manner aind her presence. She saw her power. VGive me your hand." she sai l. "Let me read there If I shall have long years of happiness with you." lie held forth his hand. She held it until it slightly trembled in her fingers. Then she burst forth with a cry of horror, "Oh, my master, know est thou that death awaits thee, per chancp this very night?" Dpjafar Bek trembled now. "Thou wilt die by the hand of a man thou hast this day of fended." "Is it by Assa Dhoulla Bek?" he asked. "We quarreled today, and about you. lie would have bought you." "Oh, my master," exclaimed alome, "to save thee I must have some object upon which he has looked today, then I can avert this evil and make his arms useless against thee." "What! You can do this?" exclaimed Djafar incredulously. "Most certainly. Give me your dagger." He drew it and handed it to her. She held it up and, looking up to the blue heavens above, murmured a prayer; then, handing It back to him said: "Now it is useless. It can" slay no one." He looked at her unbelievingly. "Try it," she exclaim ed. "Strike here!" He struck the blow where her finger rested full upon her heart The keen blade went swiftly home, and she fell at his feet, exclaim ing, "O God, receive my soul!" Then she lay dead. Iron Making: In Early History. Iron was used before history was written. The stone records of Egypt and the brick books of Nineveh men tion it Genesis (ix, 22) refers to Tu balcain as "as instructor of every ar tificer in brass and iron," and In Deu teronomy (ill, 11) the bedstead of the giant Og was "a bedstead of iron." Tho galleys of Tyre and Sidon traded in, this metal. Chinese records ascrib ed to 2,000 B. C. refer to it Horace Cpeaks of it as superior to bronze. The bronze age came before the Iron age because copper, found as a" nearly pure metal, easily fuses, and with another soft nietal tin or zinc alloys into hard bronze, while iron, found only as an ore, must have the impurities burn ed and hammered out by great heat and force before it can be made into a tool.

Keeping an Umbrella, - Limoreiias are proverbially a hard """s seep, xney nave such a way or making up with an absolute stran ger and walking away with him. No matter how much a man may be at tached to an umbrella, if It is not at tached to him with a chain he may as well bid it an af fectionate fare well whenever he puts it down in a corner and turns away to transact some business. However, this rule, hard, fast and inflexible as it is, does not apply unless the umbrella Is new and shiny and cost more than 39 cents at retail. To keep an umbrella on down through the years and have It on hand to will to your grandchildren, select one with a cracked handle and a hole in the cover as large as a bollermaker's hand. Then you can't lose It, or if you do after repeated attempts a small boy will be around at your door with it in the. morning claiming a reward for hisjronesty. - The Educated Mule, An ancient farmer had a mule.

Pearson's. Animals Which Rarely Drink. Naturalists have discovered many .animals which seem to need no water or which drink only at rare Intervals. There is a certain breed of gazelles which never drink, and the llamas of Patagonia live for years without tak ing water. There is a particular class of cattle near Losere. in France, that rarely touches water, but in spite of this fact these cattle give milk of a rich quality, trom which excellent cheese Is made. Many naturalists have the theory that hares do not drink or that water is not a necessity' for them, and that the dew on the erass is suf ficient for their needs. Sir Andrew Clark's Aphorisms. The late Sir Andrew Clark, who was Mr. Gladstone's physician, made use of the three following aphorisms during a conversation with Miss Frances Wil- lard: "Labor is the life of life." "Ease is the way to disease." "The highest life of an organ lies in the fullest dis charge of its functions." There is a feast of food for reflection In these three sentences. His Idea.

Fi-re or Six Honrs at a Stretch and Divisions I'd to "Bln-ntr-slxthlx" No English congregation, would have listened to such sermons as used to be popular in the Presbyterian churches of Scotland. There is Indeed a story told of a dissenting preacher named Lobb in the seventeenth century who. when South went to hear him. "being mounted up in the pnlpft and naming his text made nothing of splitting It up into twenty-six divisions, upon which separately he very carefully un dertook to expatiate in their order. Thereupon the doctor rose up, and; Jogging the friend who bore him com pany, said, 'Let us go home and fetch our gowns and slippers, for I find this man will make night work of it " But Mr. Lobb himself was humane in the pulpit as compared to a certain Mr. Thomas Boston, to whose sermons Sir Archibald Geikie has drawn atten tion in his "Scottish Reminiscences." Mr. Thomas Boston, who wrote a book 'called "Primltiae et Ultima," was min ister of the gospel at Ettrick. In a ser mon on "Fear and Hope, Objects of the Divine Complacency," from the text Psalm cxlvli, 11, "The Lord tak- eth pleasure In them that fear him and in those that hope in his mercy," Mr. Boston, "after an introduction in four sections, deduced six doctrines, each subdivided Into from three to eight heads, but, the last doctrine required another sermon which contained 'a practical improvement of the whole,' arranged under eighty-six heads. A sermon on Matthew xl, 28, was subdi vided into seventy-six heads.' " On this text indeed, Mr. Boston preached four such sermons. It is more than doubtful whether any brains or hearts south of the Tweed could have stood the strain of such discourses. But a Scotch preacher, not in the present degenerate age, has been known to preach from five to six hours at a 5 stretch, and sometimes when one preacher had finished his sermon another would begin and there would be a succession of ' preachers delivering sermon upon sermon until the unhappy congregations were kept listening to "the word" for as many as ten hours without a break Bishop Willdon in the Nineteenth Century, A Startling Test. To save a life, Dr. T. G. Merritt, of No. Mehoopany, Pa., made a startling test resulting in a wonderful cure. He writes, "a patient was attacked with violent hemorrhages, caused by ulcer ation oi the stomach, i had often found Electric Bitters excellent for acute stomach and liver troubles so I prescribed them. The patient gain ed from the first, and has not had an attack in 14 months." Electric Bit ters are positively guaranteed for Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Constipation and Kidney troubles. Try them.

The condition seems better, but the nature of the dis ease is no less virulent than at the beginning. Indeed the last case carried to the infirmary is as bad, probably worse, than any we have had. Our force is much worn from the strain. If it must continue we will have to get an entirely new force; but we hope the change has begun. " THE GOOD OLD WAY A severe cold or attack of la grippe is like a fire, the sooner you combat it the better your chances are to over power it.

But even without the application of the old fashioned aids German Syrup will cure a severe cold in quick time. It will cure colds in children or grown people. It relieves the congested orerans, allays the irritation, and effectively stops the cough. -Any child will take it. It is invaluable in a household of children.
