OLD MEMORIES AWAKENED. The Little Book Made Him Thoughtful for One Night.

It was only an ordinarily bound, small sized Pible, and would not attract more than a passing glance from any one of the hurrying hundreds who passed the little table in front of the second-hand book store every day. Perhaps it had Jain there for years unnoticed until one day last week, when its former owner found it. Hewas ambling along, surrounded by several boon companions—a man of about 36 years, from his general appear- unce, but one whose eres looked like those of an old man-—the kind of eyes one sees in the sockets about the gambling honses. He was the jolliest of the crowd, and ina boisterous way was joking his fellows. As his eyes shifted restlessly he happened to catch sight of that little leather-cov- ered Bible as it lay on the dirty table in front of the old second-hand store. In an instant he stopped as if petrified, and for getting his companions stvod riveted to the spot. Then he walked quickly into the store and asked the old woman to come outside,

‘*How much for this picking it up.

‘‘ Thirty-five cents,’’ was the reply.

The man handed her a silver dollar, and, picking up the book, left the store.

‘*What on earth do you want with that book’’ exclaimed one of the ‘‘gang,’’ who did not see the title. But the man paid no attention to the question. Instead he opened the book, and there on the fly-leaf saw the inseription: ‘‘To my boy,’’ and underneath the date, ‘‘July 5, 1880.’’ As he read the words two tears came into his eyes and one of them plashed down upon the book. His companions had by this time passed on and had entered a saloon, but he did not think of them. His thoughts were of that twenty-first birth- day, ten years ago, when his mother kad given the little book to him on the eve of his departure for the city. Ina minute he had lived over all those evil fifteen years that had elapsed since then, and unmindful of the passers by stood in the middle of the crowded street the book still open in his hand. His companions had by this time missed him and came back.

‘‘Hurry up, old boy, the drinks are or- dered, and there’s a good game going on upstairs,’ cried one, but the man only shook his head and quietly said :—

**T don’t think I'll play to-day. Good- by, boys, I'm going home on the 6 o'clock train. ’’—Louisville Courier-Jour- nal.

book?’ he asked,

SECRETS OF BUDDHISM.

Adherents of the Belief Have Kept Them Many Years.

There can be little doubt but that the initiates of the higher mysteries of Budd- hisin possess secrets of a psychological natnre which are absolutely unknown to the rest of the world, and which have never been divulged during a period which probably far ante-dates the rise of Buddhism itself. Tho secrets of hypnote ism, thought transference, and many others on what may be called the occult side of nature,while they are mysteries to the Western world have been common- places to these people for ages, and they have never permitted the slightest ink- ling of their trne nature to leak out, al- thouch their revelation might possibly revolutionize the world. The trade se- crets of the Phoenicians were kept for centuries with marvelous fidelity. The chief of these was doubtless the location of and the method of reaching the tin mines of Cornwall, and the story is still extant of the captain of a Phoenician gal- ley who, when pursued by a Roman trireme, which sought to follow him to his destination, deliberately ran hia ship ashore and wrecked her, so that the great secret might remain undivulged.

His Thought.

A man who is sad or sorry is often ap- proached best from the commonplace side. Inthe ‘‘History of the Town of Bedtord’’ is a stury of a misanthropic pa- tient in a Washington hospital during the war. He had a compound fracture of the knee, and as he was in pain most of the time, could scarcely be expected to prove a jovial companion. Yet, although he steadily frowned down all efforts at conversation,one lady, who was staying in the hospital to nurse her husband, suc- ceeded in getting into his life one little wedge of human kindliness. She writes:

He does not care to have me read or apeak to him; we call him ‘‘South Caro- lina’’ because he wishes to be ‘‘let slone.’’

Ove morning, as I took my usual walk down the aisle, his head was resting on his hands and he looked very solemn. I felt that hea was homesick. I was deter- mined to call him out of himself if I could. Acting on the impulse of the mo- ment, I said:—

‘‘A penny for your thoughts, sir!’’

To my surprise he did not frown, as he had done before when. I had spoken to him, but said quietly: ‘My thought is too foolish to tell.’’

‘Perhaps not,’’ I replied. *

‘*Well’’ said he, ‘‘I was just wishing I could have some buttermilk biscait for breakfast, like those the woman used to make with whom I boarded in New Hampehbire.’’

He told me her name and where she lived, and then I could say that she was my husband's cousin. That made a be- ginning, and since then I have dared to ‘*be neighborly.’’

Tiny Oxen,

One of the greatest curiosities among the domesticated animals of Ceylon isa breed of cattle known to the zoologists as the ‘‘eacred running oxen.’’ They are the dwarfs of the whole ox famtly, the larg- est specimen of the species never exceed- ing thirty inches in height. One sent to the Marquis of Canterbury in the year 1891 which is still living, and is believed to be somewhere near ten years of age, is only twenty-two inches high, and weighs but one hundred and nine and a half pounds. In Ceylon they are used for quick trips across country with express matter and other light loads, and it is said that four of them can pull a driver cf a two- wheeled cart and a two-hundred pound toad of miscellaneous matter sixty to sav- enty miles aday. They keep up a con- stant singing trot or run, and have been known to travel one hundred milesina day and night without e.ther food or wa- ter. Noone knows anything concerning the origin of this peculiar breed of minia- ture cattle. They have been known on ths island of Ceylon and in other Budd- histic countries for more than a thousand years. —Tit-Bits.

A Straight Answer.

*‘How’a the going??”’ called the man In the reé mittens, as, through the blizzard, the criver of the Wayback mail came struzgling into town.

‘*Dunno,’’ answered the driver, ‘I hayen’t gone yet—but,’’ he added in a burst of frankness, ‘‘the coming is all- tired hard’’

A Sweet-Minded Woman. ! So great is the influence of a sweet- minded woman on those around her | that it is almost boundless. It is to her that friends come in seasons of sor- row and sickness for help and comfort; one soothing touch of her kindly hand works wonders in the feverish child: few words let fall from her lips in the | ear of asorrow-stricken sister do much to raise the load of grief that is bowing its victim down to the dust in anguish. The husband comes home worn out | with the pressure of business and feel- ing irritable with the worldin general, but when he enters the cosy sitting room and sees the blaze of the fire and | meets his wife’s smiling face, he suc- | cumbs in a moment to the soothing in- fluences which act as the balm of Gilead to his wounded spirits that are wearied with the stern realities of life. The rough school boy flies into a rage from the taunts of his companions to find solace in his mother’s smile; the | little one, full of grief with her large troubles, finds a haven of rest on its mother’s breast; and so one might go on with instance after instance of the influence that a sweet-minded woman has in the social life with which she is connected. Beauty is an insignificant power when compared with hers.

How to Live. | How to live isthe great study of the

world. Dying is of comparative unim- portance. In the Irish legends it is told of a lake in Munster that there |

were two islands in it; into one of them death could never enter; but age was there, and sickness, and all the infirm- ities of life and the pains and woes of dreadful suffering; and the inhabitants, worn and feeble, bowed under burdens which they could not support and which they could not throw off, grew tired of their immortality and looked longingly over to the other island where death reigned, as to a very para- dise. ‘They launched their boats upon the gloemy and tempestuous waters and sailed for the shores where they were sure to die, and when their trembling feet trod upon them, they were at rest. We need not shrink from death if we have fulfilled the mission of our life, but welcome it as a boon anda crowning reward.—Burdett

Many cases have been investigated, and among others that of Mrs. Reany, of Ashland, Wis., who was cured of this form of trouble by the use of a kidney medicine known as Dodd’s Kidney Piller, which originated in Canada but bas now become widely known and used throughout the We-tern States. This and other similar cases go to show that these troubles are largely due to the kid- neys and that the above menticned remedy is likely tu have a great «ffectin lessening the number of victims to this form of com- plaint.
