Settling Under Difficulties.

BY ROBERT J. BURDETTE.

Strangers visiting the beautiful city of Burlington have not failed to notice that one of the handsomest young men they

, meet is very bald, and they fall into the _ usual error of attributing tbis premature

But such is not This young man, one of the

baldness to dissipation. the case.

‘most exemplary Bible class scholars in

the vity, went toa Baptist sociable out on West Hill one night about two yerrs ago. He escorted three charming gir:s, with angelic countenances and human appetites, out to the refreshment tabie, let them eat all they wanted, and then found he had left his ketbook at home, and a deaf man that he had never seen before at the cashier’s desk. The young man, with his face aflame, bent down and said softly :—~

“I am ashamed to gay I have no change with—’’

‘‘Hey?’” shouted the eashier.

‘I regret to say,”’ the young man re- peated ona little louder key, ‘‘that I have unfortunately come away without any change to—’’

““Change two?’ chirped the old man, “Oh, yes, I ean change five if you want 7

“No,’” the young man explained in a

terrible, penetrating whisper, for half a

dozen. people were crowding up behind him, impatient to pay their bills and get away ‘‘I don’t want any change, be- cause—’”

“Oh, don’t want nochange?’’ the deaf man cried, gleefully. ‘‘’Bleeged to ye, *bleeged to ye. ‘Taint often we get such generous donations. Pass over your bill.’’

““No, ne,’’ the young man explained, “*T have: no funds—’’

“Oh, yes, plenty of fun,’’ the deaf man replied, growing tired of the con- versatiom and noticing the long line of people Waiting with money in their nands,, “but I havyen’t got time to talk about it now. Settle and move on.”’

‘*But,,”’ the young man gasped out, “T have no money—”’

““Go Monday?’’ queried the deaf cash- ier. “*L don’t care when you go; you rhust pay and let. these other people come up.”

‘“‘T have no money!’’ the mortified young man shouted, ready to sink into the earth, while the people ali around him,.and especially the three girls he had treated, were giggling and chucki- ing audibly.

‘“‘Owe money?’’ the cashier said, ‘‘of course you do; $2.75.’’

““Lean’t pay!’* the yiouth screamed, and. by turning his pocket inside out and yelling his noverty to the heavens, he finally made the deaf man understand. And then he had to shriek his full name three times, while his ears fairly rang with the half-stiffled laughter that was breaking out all around him; and he 4ad to scream out where he worked, and roar when he would pay, and he coald- m’t get the deaf man to understand him until some cf the church members came up to see what the uproar was, and necognizing their young friend, made it all right with the cashier. And the young man went out into the night and clubbed himself, and shred his locks away until he was bald as an egg.

Magnetized by Lightning.

Among the curious effects ascribed to lightning is the mognetization of parts ef rocks struck by WM, says the Detroit Tribune. The existence of such magnet- ized rocks has long been known, but the supposition that their condition was duv in many cases to lightning has only re- cently been confirmed by a curious ob- servation of Dr. Folgheraiter among the walis of ancient buildings on the cam- pagna near Rome. He found strongly magnetic Points and zones in the walls, precisely i:ke those occasionally encoun- ters] in rocks, The fact that the mag-

netization often included more than one. hiock of stone in the wall was regarded,

as proving that the mognetic property

had been arquired after the building was.

erected, and the agency of lightning was indicated by neighboring cracks in. the walls.

Dissipating Fog by Electricity.

It is thought by many that the time is. not far distant when fog and the smoke in the atmosphere of large cities will. be dissipated by electricity. Already a pa- tent has been taken out in Germany for- an apparatus for smoke prevention hy means of wires stretched inside a flue or chimney and rendered incandescent by an electric current. This simple methad will consume the blackest smoke, but at present it is much too expensive for practical use.

A Hold Over.

‘See here, my man, last winter yon said if I’d give you a good breakfast you would come back and work it ont when you got well.’’

‘*Yes’m—so I did—and here Tam. Snowshovelin’ wuz my biz then; show up yer job an’ let me git at it fore it melts.’’
