Th^iir gtrange fancies and beliefs are at l(Mil Milled superstition, Irat by miners whuae lives have often been saved by timely premonitions of impending dan- • ger, they are as sacred as a religion. I could give facta to snbetantiate my as­ sertions." The speaker was a veteran mininp man who had spent the greater part of his life among the miners of California and Arizonia. At the request of an Alta reporter, who had become inter­ ested in the subject, the miner contin­ ued, and related some thrilling experi­ ences. "No one," he said, "treated the pecn- . liar beliefs of the miner with morte deri­ sion than myself before I became one of them. A few years' experience, how­ ever, taught me, the skeptic, to hold these so-called superstitions sacred. \touId you like to hear how iny life was saved through a feeling of danger which I fortunately heeded ? Well. You must know that in 1879, after the mines in the vicinity of Bodie had been pro­ nounced a failure, there was a great • rash for the gold and silver producing districts of Arizona. I lost no time in beginning a prospecting tour in the new and what appeared to be then the inex­ haustible territory. I was fortunate enough to soon strike a. rich lead and, with the assistance of an intelligent young man whom I had taken into part­ nership, began operations. We dug -into the bank of a gully, said to be a wonderfully rich spot. The work pro­ gressed favorably, and in a week our ex­ cavations extended in some fifteen feet from the mouth. Not knowing that our mine would be permanent, little at­ tention was paid to putting ia the proper timbers for safety. Well, I was working steadily ahead with pick and shovel one afternoon after my partner had departed to prepare supper at the cabin, when I experienced a most peculiar feeling. My whole body seemed to turn as cold as ice, and my hands trembled so violently that I could not wield the pick. After "trembling for a few seconds a voice of thunder seemed to sound in my ears: 'Run for your life; the mine is caving!' I obeyed'this strange and unaccounta­ ble warning or premonition, and never ran faster in my life as I started for the mouth of our little mine. An instant after I reached the open air the roof caved in and the mine was completely filled with the falling rocks and dirt. Was this a premonition, superstition, or imagination ? I firmly believe that the timely warning I received was the voice of the spirit that watches over the miners and saves thousands from violent deaths. Laugh, if you will; but I can account for it in no other way. " In the case I have cited, on instant's delav or hesita­ tion would have caused my life to come to a terrible end. You may be sure that After that experience I never failed to take advantage of these strange warn­ ings ; and I am firmly convinced that they have saved my life on at least half a dozen occasions. A peculiar circumstance of the case I have told you is that the night previous to the caving in of the mine my partner dreamed that it was going to cave in. He did not tell me of his dream for fear that I would have nothing more to do Hvith the mine. After a little more experience he also came to believe in these warnings as firmly as I do. "I know of a vastly rich mine in the San Gabriel Mountains, Los Angeles County, that lias caused the death of every man who tried to carry ore away •<rotn it. You may call this superstition ^ also, but there are a dozen miners be­ dsides myself who know of the millions that could be taken from this mine and "yet are afraid to go near it. Some half *» dozen men had been killed by caves, etc., when my partner and I arrived . after a run of six months of hard luck in Arizona. We worked around a few days and took out some specimens of as ; beautiful gold quartz as man ever laid eyes upon. My partner desired to go to San Francisco to purchase tools and ma­ terial for developing the mine. He went and took several pieces of ore for assaying with him. The ore was found to be worth about $1,000 a ton. In the ^meantime I remained in Los Angeles >iawaiting my partner's return. The next I heard of him was that he had been stricken with leprosy and died a hor­ rible death in the pesthouse. It is hardl v necessary to state that I never returned to that mine. The certainty that I also would come to my death in short order prevents me from doing so." Gen. Grant's Memory. Samuel Fessenden of Connecticut re- | lates a story of Gen. Grant which illus- A " ••••; trates the democracy of his nature and • his strong and lasting memory. It has been said that he never forgot a name or face. Mr. Fessenden, who is now a leading Republican, and one of the most . successful lawyers of his State, was a private soldier in 1864-'65. He was be­ fore Petersburg with his companions in arms, when ho got a brief furlough and went over to Washington, just as his ; uncle, ex-Senator William Pitt Fessen­ den of Maine, who was Secretary of the 'Treasury, was starting with a party for the headquarters of the army, on board the steamer Northener. The young private was asked to go with them, and laccepted the invitation. At headquar­ ters a big dinner was given to the army ; officers on board the Northener. Simeon -Draper, who was then Collector of New - York, provided the feast. The young soldier was introduced by his uncle to " Gen. Grant and others, and then sent ^ ? - off with the midshipmen, when presently 'Hhere came to him a message that Gen. 4. Grant would like private Fessenden to £>•. • join the party at dinner. Going to the ^ ' vdining-room, he was placed in a seat next to Gon.

Mr. Fessenden lifted Shis hat in salutation and said : "Good morning, Mr. President." He had no expectation of a recognition beyond a return of the courtesy, but, to his as­ tonishment, the General crossed over | the pavement, extended his hand, and " said: "Why, how are you, Mr. Fessen­ den?"--New York Tribune.

Some laundresses seem to be quite afraid of changing the water. They will pass three or four sets of clothes through the same water, and evidently think they are good managers to do this. They make a great mistake. It is impossible that clothes should be sweet and clean unless plenty of clean water is allowed for them. Of course we can understand that in order to save soap it is most un­ desirable to throw a good lather out be­ fore it has been made the most of, and therefore it is quite allowable to wash best wlutes for the first time--after they have been wrung out of the soak--in the water in which flannels have been rinsed, and to "first" coarse articles in the same water in which fine things have been "seconded." Yet even the routine of a simple arrangement like this must be determined by common sense, and the laundress who takes pride in the color of her linen will be quite uneasy if there is a danger that they should be passed through dirty water. There is "quite a nack in rubbing clothes properly. It is of no use to rub the soap upon the fabric, andtheu plunge it at once into the hot water and so get rid of it as soon as possible. Instead of doing this, the worker should aim at using the soap. She should plunge the portion of the fabric to be cleansed into the water, soap it, and then rub it to get it clean, remembering all the time that what she has to do is not to rub her hands, but to rub one portion of the linen steadily against the other, giving a little squeeze or pressure with every downward movement, to squeeze out the dirt. Amateur laundresses, who have not acquired the right knack of the thing, generally rub the skin off their hands, and consequently feel the effects of washing-day two or three days after it is passed. There is no occasion for this. There is a right way of doing everything, even of rubbing clothes, and five minutes of the right way will do more to make the fabric clean than ten minutes of the wrong way. When clothes have been soaked, and when the right way of rubbing is adopted, it is wonderful how little rubbing will make them clean. After washing, clothes must be boiled in water in which some of the soap jelly already mentioned has been dissolved. This water must on no account be boil­ ing when the linen is put in. Boiling water would fix any stains there might be. The water must be luke-warm, and twenty minutes' boiling will be quite long enough to get rid of the dirt, and the clothes must be pressed well under the water while this is going 0|u*-- CasselVs Family Magazine. ,r v if Finger-Sail. Our finger-nails grow out about three times a year; they should be trimmed with scissors once a week, not so close as to leave no room for the dirt to gather, for then they do not protect the ends or the fingers, as was designed by nature; besides, if trimmed too close at the corners, there is danger of their growing into the flesh, causing inconve­ nience, and sometimes great pain. The collections under the ends of the nails ..hould not be removed by any­ thing harder than a brush or a soft piece of wood; nor should the nails be scraped with a penknife or other metallic substance, as it destroys the delicacy of their structure and will at length give them an unnatural thickness. We are not favorably impressed as to the cleanliness of a person who keeps his nails trimmed to the quick, as it is often done to prevent dirt gathering there; whereas, if a margin were allowed, it would be an index to the cleanliness of the Ijands, from which the collectionft under the finger-nails are made. Leave a margiw, then, and the moment you observe that these collections need re­ moving, you may know that the hands need washing, when they and the nails are both cleaned together. Most persons are familiar with those troublesome bits of skin which loosen at the roots of the finger-nails; it is caused by the skin adhering to the nail, which growing outwards drags the skin along with it, stretching it until one end gives way. To prevent this, the skin should be loosened from the nail onco a week, not with a knife or scis­ sors, but with something blunt, such a3 the end of an ivory paper cutter; this is best done after soaking the fingers in warm water, then pushing the skin back gently and slowly; the white specks on the nails are made bv scraping the nail with a knife at a point where it emerges from the skin. Biting the finger-nails is an uncleanly practice, for thus the unsightly collec­ tions at the ends are kept eaten clean! Children may be broken of such a filthy habit by causing them to dip the ends of their fingers several times a day in wormwood bitters, without letting them know the object. If this is not suffi­ cient, cause them to wear caps on each finger until the practice is discontinued. --MaU'* Journal of Health. A Forest-Clad City. Canals run in every direction in Gangkok, the capital of Siam, an'd are so numerous that the Siamese are proud to call their city the Venice of the East. Houses project over the canals, with open balconies, and both sides of the river for six or more miles are lined with floating houses, used not only for resi­ dences, but for business. People do their shopping in boats, and, while a woman sells to her customers in open view--for all houses have open fronts-- her lazy husband fishes, sitting upon a box of goods, and his children bathe and swim around the house. Rivers and canals are always filled by freight- boats, forty or sixty feet long, by small peddler-boats, by canoes of all sizes, from ten feet, barely holding a man, up to a hundred or more feet, with fifty or more paddles moving in state with some high official. There are • also a large number of small steam barges in the city. Trees abound about the town, many of them of good forest size. Looking down from a high pagodA one can scarcely realize one's self in the heart of a great city. The ordinary house is almost entirely lost in the mass of green. Here and there one peeps out, looking cool and shaded. But the lofty, snow-white pagodas, the tall, steep-roofed temples--roofed in tiles of many colors--many of them in gilt--the beautiful kiosk turrets of the palaces, the gilded royal cenotaph, and the white palaces themselves, make the city from an eminence look like a royal garden, with princely palaces and oriental temples nestled among orna­ mental tropical trees.

But experience would not seem to agree with that theory. The notoriety given to great criminals and the publication of all the Police Court items seem to provoke imitation, and crime gets more caramon and more defiant. The imitative faculty in hu­ man nature is a most curious study. •According to the San Francisco Chron­ icle, the Park Commissioners of that city have met with it lately in a form and to an extent that worries them. Whenever pile man lifts committed sui­ cide in the park, it has been found that three or four try to immediately after in the same place and in the same way. Some of them don't succeed. Some of them do. A Park Commissioner was talking about it the other night, and telling some curious stories. There are certain officers out there whose main duty is to look out for people who are look- iifg for a place to commit suicide. They don't generally go out and do it at once. One day the Commissioner w as talkinr to an officer when a man passed thm> "Do you see that fellow?" said the officer. "What about him?" "Well, he's going to commit suicide." "Now?" "I guess not now, but he's thinking about it and making up his mind to do it." "How do you know?" "I know. He came to me and asked me where that fellow commit ted sui­ cide the other day, and when I gave him some kind of an answer lie went away. He came back and said he couldn't find the place, and was mad about it." "Are there many like that?" "A few. I came near giving a fellow an awful licking the other day." "What for?" "I knew he wanted to commit suicide the way he was behaving. He came out here every day for a long time, and he was evidently making up his mind. The lust time he came out I saw he was about ready for it. I went up to him and asked him what he was doing hang­ ing around in that way. "He didn't give me any satisfaction, and he behaved very curiously. I said to him, 'You are going to commit sui­ cide, I know, but I'm a if you do. You get out and keep out, and don't oome back or I'll lick you.'" When one of the last attempted sui­ cides took place the man was found be­ fore he was dead. The officer came up and shocked the sympathetic bystand­ ers by shaking the suicide very vigor­ ously : " 'So you got the best of me, did you, --- you? I've been watching you for a week, and I knew you were going to do it, but I thought I would be sharp enough to get ahead of you. But you did get ahead of me after all," and he was seriously angry about it. Red Hair and White Horses. The popular jest about the necessary bontignity of red-headed girls and white horses is by no means modern, though in its recent revival it lias swept over the country as a novelty. Some of us remember that our grandfathers used jocularly to assert it to the wondering ears of youth as a well-attested fact. In all likelihood the saying took its origin in the old English game called sometimes the "game of the road," but more often "ups and downs," which is still a favor­ ite among children and traveling sales­ men in Great Britain. One party takes the "up"* side of the street or road, the other the "down," counting one for every ordinary object and five for a white horse (a piebald counting as white) until a certain number agreed upon carries off the victory, but a red­ headed woman or a donkey wins the game at once. Another explanation refers the phase to a North of Ireland superstition that the sight of a red-headed girl brings ill- luck to the beholder unless he retrace his steps to the starting point; but if he meets a white horse at any stage on his backward progress the spell is ipso facto averted. In the midland counties of England, on the other hand, it is ill- luck to meet a white horse without spit­ ting at it. In Wexford an odd cure for whooping-cough is suggested by cur­ rent superstition. The patient trudges along the road until he meets a piebald horse, and shouts out to the rider: "Hello, man on the piebald horse, what is good for the whooping-cough ?"' and no matter how absurd the remedy suggested he will certainly be cured. In Scotland to dream of a white horse fortells the coming of a letter. The prejudice against red hair is as widespread and deep-rooted as it is un­ accountable. Tradition assigns reddish hair to both Absalom and Judas. Thus Rosalind (complaining of her husband's tardiness) pettishly exclaims, "His own hair is of dissembling color!" and is answered by Celia:" Somewhat browner than Judas's." Marston, also, in his "Insatiate Countess," says: "I ever thought by his red beard he would prove a Judas; here am I bought and sold." But Lenorado de Vinci, it may be noted in passing, paints Judas with black hair in fresco, "The Last Judg­ ment."--American Notes and Queries. A Modern Hamlet. A kind of modern hamlet has been discovered at Montreuil-sous-Bois out­ side of Paris. His name is Bornet and he is a young fellow of 19, who tried to avenge the death of his father by mur­ dering liis mother and her second hus­ band. Bornet pere was a prosperous and hard-working proprietor of vans and carts, who stabbed himself to death be­ cause his wife had been unfaithful with a wagoner. The woman married the wagoner, who thus became a master where he was formerly a servant, a pro­ motion which naturally exasperated the youthful Bornet, who sprang out one day at his step-father with a knife and stabbed him in the neck. He also in­ flicted some injuries on his mother, who had gone to the rescue of her husband. The wounded persons recovered and "Hamlet redivivus," having been tried by an unsympathetic jury, was sen­ tenced to six months' imprisonment.-- London Telegraph. All in the Text. A clergyman in Texas not long ago took quite an active part in politics, as many of his profession have from time to time done in other States. He was rewarded for his services by being ap­ pointed chaplain of. the penitentiary. Before departing to assume the duties of his office he preached a farewell ser­ mon to his congregation r who were in arrears with his salary, and who in other-ways had not treated him well, and he took for his text these words of the Saviour: "I go to prepare a place for you, in, order that where I aija ye mtff be siaoJ'--Arkansato A .

'Ah, me,' muttered Droubitzkoi, 'if this business were only well over.' 'But how ?' queried Vladi- mirovitch, impatiently.

A prominent official of the United States lately si ruck upon a good plan for getting rid of intruders: The doorkeeper of the Secretary's office being remarkably obliging, a rabid office-seeker managed to get in every day and bother the Secretary. When the annoyance Lai continued three or four days, the Secretary stepped up one morning to the door­ keeper and inquired whether he knew what the man came after daily. "Yes," said the doorkeeper, "an office, I sup­ pose." "True; but do you know whaioffice ?" "No, sir." sr "Well, then, IH telljfou. He wants your place!"

"COLUMBUS, OHIO, Aug. 18th, 1887. WORLD'S DISPE.NSAKV MEUICAI. ASSOCIA­ TION, 603 Main Street, BuUalJ, N. Y.: Oentlemeu --For several yeare I have felt It to be iny duty to give to you the facts in rela­ tion to the complete cure of a nioBt aggra­ vated case of salt-rhcuin, by the use of your 'Uoldfti Medical Discovery. An elderly lady relative of mine had been a great sufferer from salt-rhcuin for upwards of forty years. The diseiwe was most distressing in her bands, causing tlie skin to crack open on the inside of the flngers •t the loiots and between the flngers. She was obliged to protect the raw places by means of adhesive plasters, salves, ointments and bandages, and during the winter months had to have her hands dressed daily. The pain was quite severe at times and her general health was badlv affected, paving the way for other diseases to creep in. Catarrh and rheumatism caused a great deal of suffering IQ addition to the salt-rheum. She had used luithfully, and with the most commendable perseverance, all the remedies prescribed by her physicians, but without obtaining relief, bhe afterwards begau treating herself by drinking teas made from blood-purify­ ing roots and nerbs. She continued this for several J em's but de­ rived no benefit. Finally, about ten years 11*5 0,1 chanced to read One of Dr. Pierce's small pamphlets setting forth the merits of his " ~ tf«iU»ol niinni-erv' find nt.hpr lliodiclttd. U.IlC Etl'UCJC myfancy, and seeing that It was essentially a blood-purifier. I im~ mediately recommended it to the old lady who had occn so long ai. suBerer from salt-rheum. She commenced taking it at once, and took one bottle, but seemed to be no better. However, I realized.:. that it would take time for any medicine to effect a change for better, and encouraged her to continue. She then purchased haif-a-^docen bottles, and before these had all been used she bcMfcS'^.-'&.s to notice an improvement. Al ter taking about a doren bottles she1 * V' -I WHS entirely cured. Her hands were perfectly well and as suiootlv' is. <%• and healthy as a child's. Her general health was also greatly,*Ir£fe improved; the rheumatism entirely lelt her, and the catarrh uus. ' ' almost, cured, so that it ceased to tie much annoyance. She lias,; enjoyed excellent health from that day to this, and has had IUK * r return of either salt-rheum or rheumatism. The 'Discovery * <• f seems to have entirely eradicated the salt-rheum from her system. * * J She is now over eighty years old, and very healthy for one of such jh < * -4: extreme age. v m I have written this letter, of which you can make any use you .'* r. • " •.* ' see lit, hoping that some sufferer from salt-rheum might c!'.»:nee to -mjiS * read it and obtain relief by using your 'Golden Medical Discovery*' , cp -- f o r ' G o l d e n ' i t i s i n i t s ' c u r a t i v e p r o p e r t i e s , a n d e s m u c h i . b o v e ' " • > ' \ the multitinlo of notitriinis and so-called 'puunt undieint-s,' so * * . • ^ < zealously Haunted before the public, as u<»iU is above th« UjfiSk > metals.

She was taken with consumption, and after trying one doc­ tor after another I finally gave up all hope of relief. Being very poor and having but one dollar in the world, I prayed to t»od that he might show me something; and then it seems as though some­ thing did tell tae to get vour ' Golden Medical Discovery. My wife took it as directed, and as a result she is so she can work now. Wasting Diseaae.--WATSOH F.
