Who drives the horses of the sun Shall lord it but a day; Better lowly the deed were done,
Ay, none shall nail so high his name Time will not tear it down.
The bappiest heart that ever beat Was in some quiet breast - That found the common daylight sweet And left to heaven the rest. JOHN VANCE CHENEY.
HIS HEARING WAS RESTORED.
But for Some Time After He Couldn't Bear the Ticsing of a Watch.
A well-known physician recently told the following stery to an Indianapolis Sentinel reporter: “A prominent Marion county farmer @iscovered that he was gradually getting deaf. He couldn't bear the hired man blast stumps vith giant powder. He camc to my office and made signs that he wanted his ears examined. I examined them and in an instant almost found that his defective hearing was caus- ed by the gathering of a waxy substance in his ears. When I removed this ob- struction of the hearing I was surprised atthe result. The old gentleman jumped from the chair where he had been seated and put both hands to his ears. He couldn’t stand the wuoise from the street and the least sound startl- ed him. He was one of the most pleased nen Lever saw. He went away and it was several weeks before I saw him again. He called at my office with his wife and she did all the talking. She hardly raised her voice above a whisper and every now and then she looked at her husband in a timid way. She said that for several days he would not allow the least bit of noise in the house and that he butchered some pigs before their time on account of being affected by their squeal. His daughter and her husband had lived with them for two years and they had to leave on account of the crying of their 6- months-old baby. There were two clocks in the house, one in the dining-room and one in the bedroom. These he stopped on account of their ticking. The clock in the bedroom wasan alarm clock. It went off one night. He jumped from bed and near- ly broke his neck by falling head first on the fioor. The woman said that she had to keep the house as quiet as a graveyard for more than two weeks, as it was that long before her husband became accustom ed to hearing. His daughter, however, has gone back to the farm with her baby, and the clocks have been started again.”
Silk Made From Wood Pulp.
At Bradford, England, silk has been made from wood pulp so much like the real thing that it bids fair to occupy a place in commerce and use. It is produe- ed by subjecting vegetable fiber to the ac- tion of various acids, the result being a product said to be identical with the fila ment of the worm, having its lightness, lustre and all ita qualities, including that of durability. Commercially speaking, the importance of the discovery can hard- ly be overestimated, and it is possible that it will produce the most revolutionary con- sequences in the trade in that commodity everywhere. The world’s stock of silk, both woven and raw, is immense and has always held a staple value likely to be much shaken and disturbed by the intru- sion of a new supply which can be cheaply and abundantly produced. Samples of yarn, fringe, braid, gimps, sewing silks, handkerchiefs, brocades and other fabrics, dyed in various colors, have been exhibit- ed by the Bradford makers to the trade and pronounced all right and upto the commercial standard in all respects. With artificial silk and artificial diamonds and rubies such as are now being turned out in great abundance, modern society will doubtless take on a style of splendor hitherto unknown, outshining the courts of Solomon or the Queen of Sheba or the retinues of Maboud or Haroun Al Raschid. —Philadelphia Ledger.
Origin of Common Law.
In a most able discourse delivered by ex- Chief Justice Charles P. Daly, of the New York court of common pleas, before the senior law class of the University of the City of New York, April, 1894, on the com- mon law, its origin, sources, nature and development, he attributes the origin of the common law in England to the Norse- mau. ‘Their laws of war were most chival- rous to strike a fallen enemy was murder. No history has been more perveted by even modern historians than that of the Vik- ings. Their conquests and settlement of Britain, of part of Gaul and other coun- tries, of their expeditions and invasions, of their sea power, have been attributed to another people—the so-callled Saxons of the Romans, then to the Anglos.
People shout ““We belong to the glorious Anglo-Saxon race’? when there is not a
particle of historical facts backed by monu- |; ments to prove their assertions. On the contrary, as it will be seen, the monuments or graves found in England and called Saxon or Anglo-Saxon graves or in France Frankish graves are thoroughly Norse in origin as well as their contents.
Taking Time by the Forelock.
A clerk in the war department went out to look for lodgings the other day and ealled at a nice looking house on Eleventh street in the window of which was a pla- card, ‘Rooms for Rent.’ The landlady showed him a large front room, the rental for which, she stated, was $16 a month.
“That is more than I can afford to pay,”’ said the clerk.
“Well,” respohded the landlady, apolo- getically, ‘‘would you object to occupying a room in which a lady had died ?”’
“No,” replied the clerk, “I quess net. What caused the death ?”
“Consumption.”
“That is not a contagious disease. How long since the lady died ?’’
“Why, she isn’t dead yet, but it is only a question of afew days. Can’t I engage the room to you ?”"—Washington Post.
| Curing Frost Bite by Electricity. Although the past winter has in most places been of exceptional mildness, it has developed a new cure for frost bi‘es. Dr. Helbing has been successful in Germany in twenty cases im healing people of the , frozen nose. The treatment consisted in applying electrodes to the opposite side of the nose, and passing 8 moderately strong current for about five or ten minutes, moving the electrodes about. The imme diate result is a reddening of the tissues, which may last several days, after which the skin and flesh resume their normal condition. In extreme cases from ten to fifteen applications have been found nee easary.

~ THE LITTLE MOTHER.
And Some of the Amusing Things She
Does.
It is very amusing to notice the matern 1! air a girl of four of five summers \ sume towrrd another of two year j northwest part of the city lives a littl girlnamed Annie, who puts on such 4 maternal look when taking care of a neighbor’s baby that everybody has t\ laugh.
Annie’s chief weakness was an uncons cious yearning to spoil this baby crowding its little inside with cake the other day when its nother came upon the scene.
‘Don’t give Helen any more cake,”’ said the mother, “I’m afraid it will make her sick.”
Notwithstanding this request, Annie thought she knew better, and went in the house for more cake.
A moment or two afterward Helen's mother discovered her child still swallow- ing cake.
“Annie, didn’t I tell you not to give her any more cake’ I'l] take her in the house if I see you give her another crumb.”
So Annie kept the rest of the cake to her- self. Little Helen stuck up her mouth in- vitingly and it almost broke Annie’s heart to refuse the child. Helen begged for more cake and not getting it, burst into tears. oa Annis took her in the arms and
She was
“Never mind, Helen. Yll be your mother. You come with me. You can have all the cake you want.” And if the mother hadn't stepped in with a slipper the two might have wandered away to start housekeeping far from her sway.
All Alike.
“I’ve let my play reader go,” said a man ager. “I paid him $4,000 a year to read plays, and all I got out of t was the know ledge that he had gained enough informa tion to write aplay for himself. I suppose that with the points he has picked up hi efforts will be a howling success; but 1 more play readers for me, if you plea They do not pay. I have had several pla readers, and I know whereof I speak. ©; of them would come down to the office a ten o'clock, read a play in an hour cr s and go outand getdrunk. Theh he wou come back with renewed vigor and conv: comedy into tragedy and smiles into tea: He would tear passion to tatters and thro literary physic tothe dogs. Oh, they a: all alike and this is why I’ve got the doo: locked.”’
A Change of Sex.
The novelist of the future will have to change the sex of the old Scotch gardene who potters around in the conservatory, who hates to have his choice blooms pluck ed, and who utters words of wisdem i: quaint dialect to the members of the i ily. Not even gardening, the professivi which would seem to be men’s by inhevi ance since the days “when Adam cel\ and Eve span” is left to men Lady Ca, lisle is training an entire staff of wome: to take charge of the fine grounds on le extensive estate in York. Miss Wilkinson an English woman, has recently been cor: plimented by royalty on her landsca; gardening at Vauxhall Park, which h: just been opened by the Prince of Wales.
No Boarders in the Palace. One of the ladies of Hampton Court palace recently undertook to increase her income by taking boarders. The lord chamberlain was therefore obliged to poin out that while rooms at Hampton court may be temporarily lent with the queen's consent, and there is no objection to rela tives or friends contributing to the exjxn ses of the ladies while on a bona-fide visi/, the queen draws a line at attempts to make pecuniary profit out of her hospitality.

A Bit of the Autocrat's Wit.
Everyone probably has heard the story that when James T. Fields invented 1) e nanie of Manchester-by-the-Sea and wre a note dated from there to Dr. Holmes poet replied in a note dated “Bever!) the-Depot.” It is said that Whitiirr, egged on by the irrepressible Autocra., also wrote one dated *‘Danvers-among-the- Hollyhocks,”’"— Boston Transcript.
Water and Sediment.
It has been estimated by competent civil engineers that the Mississippi river annual. ly discharges 19,500,000,000,000 cubic feet of water into the Gulf of Mexico. Of this prodigious quantity the 1-2000th part is sediment. Thus it will be seen that the Mississippi annually deposits enough mud in the gulf to cover a square mile of sur- face to a depth of 240 feet.
He Was a Cobbler.
Stambouloff, the Bulgarian ex-minister, was in his younger days a) >renticed to a cobbler. On becoming prime minister he appointed his former master, the cobbler, prefect of police at Sofiaas a mark of re- spect for his just and unerring severity and his remarkable talent for flogging.
A Novice, “T thought I had me man,” said the de- tective. ‘But it didn’t take him long to convince me that he had never been here
before.”’ ‘How did he do it?” “Unconsciously. He asked me where he
eould get a drink on Sunday.”
