THURSDAY, AUGUST 26TH, 1897. M‘.,. .- DICTIONARY ON NAILS. Th6! Figure In speech as Well a: Trade and Building. To nail a. filling is to fix or fasten with a null or nails; to drive nails into for the purpose of fastening or securing, such as to nail up a box, to nail. a shelf to the wall, to nail down the hatches, 9256.; to stud with nails; figuratively, to nail a thing is to pin it down and hold it fast, such as to nail a bargain or secure by prompt; action. It was Burns who said: Ev'n ministers. they ha'e been ken'd. In holy rapture. A rousing wind at times to vend. An nail ’t wi’ Scripture. Passing into the colloquial, to “nail to the muntor” is to put a counterfeit coin up: of circulation by fastening it with a. nail to the counter of a shop; hence, fig- uratively. to expose as false. Otlzcrdofinitions referring to the nail Ire: Nailor, one who nails, who makes nails or who sells them. while a female nailmukcr is referred to by Hugh Miller as a nailcress. A nailcry is described as an cstziblishment wberc nails are made. A nail head is the head of a nail, and any~ thing is said to be nail headed when so shupcd as to resemble the head of a nail. A nailing machine is one for forcing or driving nails into place; in carpentry, a feeding tube for the nails, connected with a plunger or reciprocating hammer; in shonmcking. a power machine closely nl- - lied to tho shoe pcggcr, used to drive small morallic nails or brads into the soles of shocs. The nail machine is a powor machine . for making nails, spikes, brads or tacks. A nailnu’xkcr is one who makes nails; a nailur, ;. person connected in any capacity in the manufacture of nails. A nail plato is a plate of metal rolled to tho proper thickness for cutting into nails. 9. nail rod is a strip split or cut from an iron plain to be made into wrought nails. -‘x nail selector is a machinc, or an attach- mi-m to a nail machina, for automatically throwing out; headless or otherwise ill formed nails and slivers. A. countersunk nail is one having a cone sizajwd hcad like that of a screw; a cut. nail, one made by a nail machine, as dis- tinguished from awrought or forged nail. “On the null” means on the spot, at oncc, immediately, without delay or post- ponenurnt, as, to pay money on the nail. This phrase is said to have originated from tho custom of making payments, in the t‘lilflltltlflo at Bristol, England, and clsi“v‘.'li“r~.r, on the top of a pillar called "tho nail. ”â€"Hardwurc. Be May Get There Yet. “That man Bluflly ls tho busiest follow I ov; r know,” mucklcd one who has known him for ymrs. “He married a lot of Jimmy, and there is not the slightest rmson for him to work at all, but he wants to kccp up the impression that: he’s no dradlmul in tho cmerpriso and keeps going through tho motions as if he had to. “ Ho concluded once he’d do editorial work on a paper. He fitted up an elegant sanctum at his own expense, laid in fine chars for callers and then announced him- . sslf ready to havo hostilities begin. His first assignment was to give his impres- sions of tho European situation. He (le- ci::rcd himsclf at home on the subject. clxzttcd and smoked all afternoon, told his friends to look out for a ‘thunderer’ and invitsd them out when he felt; like warm- ing up on the theme. was equally breezy and assured. When the managing editor dropped in about 10 and asked Blufily if the article was ready, he answvri-d with a wave of the hand and the anuoimcomont that it would take him at. least. a wcck to got. up such an editorial as was duo himsclf and the paper.

"â€"Detroit Free Press. Truthful Advertising. The half dozen transcontinental railroad companies, says John Muir in The Atlan- tic, advertise the beauties of their lines in gorgeous many colored folders, each claim- ing its as the “scenic route.” “The route of superior desolation”â€"the smoke, dust and ashes routeâ€"would be a more truth- ful description. Every train rolls on through dismal smoke and barbarous melâ€" ancholy ruins, and the companies might \Vcll cry in their advertisements: “Come, travel our way! Ours is the blackest. It is the only genuine Erebus route. The sky is black, and the ground is black, and on either side there is a continuous border of black stumps and logs and blasted trees appealing to heaven for help as if still half alive. and their mute eloquence is most in- terestingly touching. The blackness is perfect. On account of the superior skill of our workmen, advantages of climate and the kind of trees, the charting is gen- erally deeper along our line. and the ashes are deeper, and the confusion and desola- tion displayed can never be rivaled. No other route on this continent so fully til- lustratcs tho abomination of desolatio .” Such a claim would be reasonable, as each seems the worst, whatever route you chance to take. Nearest to It. A boy of 6 years, who attends a private school where prizes are given on every sort of provocation, but as yet had never earned a prize, came home one afternoon and exhibited proudly oneof these rewards of merit. “ Good !’ ’ said his mother. ‘ ‘But how did you gain in?” “I was first in natuml history.” “Natural history at your age? How did that happen?” “Oh, they asked me how many legs a horse bad.” “And what did you say?” “I said five.” “But: a horse hasn’t five legs, child." “I know, but all the other boys said uix.”â€"Pearson's Weekly. George W. Vanderbilt. A \‘orth Carolina man is quoted in the 2., . .xgton Post as saying that George W. Vanderbilt is one of the most popular men in that state. “And now,” he adds, “he ‘ has increased his popularity by proposing to build in Ashcville a hospital for the treatment of consumptives and persons suffering with contagious diseases. He will donate $100,000 as a starter for the institution, which will be, when complet- ed, one of the finest in the south. Mr. Vanderbilt is rm“ selfish with his immense fortune, and " zwre were more wealthy men after his pacacrn the world would b. better 03'.” y. l “ “M l TO H18 WiFE. i SHOWS TN THE FACE. l .'

Mark Hamilton, a Yukon minor in 15:2)! and 1003, thus told the legend: "Away back, before Alaska passed out of Russian hands," he says, “a party start;- cd up thc Koyokuk rivcr, a tributary of tho Yukon. The members wanted to learn all they could concerning the topography of the country, its mineral rosourcos und llzc various tribes by which iths inhabit.â€" cil. They were picking up furs, too, and looking for any little snaps on which thoy might stumble in the way of Indian trad- ing. Alaska was no: known thcn, as it is now, as a gold country: still it was under stood that gold was occasionally found, and tin' explorurs kept their eyes open for any challco sight of the precious metal.

"Such at least is the story. I don’t vouch ; for its truth. It is said that $5,000,001) Worth of nuggets were picked up in a few \vi'cks almost. on the surface of the ground. By this time the winter season was begin- ning r0 sot. in, and the prospectors con- cluded tbcy had better strike for thc south- ern settlements. Traveling was so dillicult and the. party so smallâ€"in numbered only six or scvcn~that the greater part of the treasure was cached near the camp and only enough packed for transportation to convince settlers in the south of tho rich- ncss of the deposits.

A story with a moral, or whose sole rea- son for being is to carry a moral, may not always be out of place. Here is one, brief and to the point, which is good for all lati- tudes and all times: A young man stood . listlessly watching- some anglers on a ] bridge. He was poor and dejected. At ' last approaching a basket; filled with w hole- somo looking fish he sighed: “If I now had those, I would be happy. I could sell them at a fair price and buy me food and lodgings. ’ ’ “I will give you just. as many and just. i as good fish,” said the owner, who chanced to hour his words, “if you will do me a trifling favor. ” "And what is that?” asked the other. “Only to tend this line till I come back. l I wish to go on a short errand.” l The proposal was gladly accepted. The old man was gone so long that the young . man began to get impatient. Meanwhile the fish snapped greedily at tho baited , hook, and the young man lost all his dc- prcssion in the excitement of pulling them in. When the owner returned, he had caught a large number. Counting out from them as many as there were in the basket and presenting them to the young man, the old fisherman said, “I fulfill my promise from the fish you have caught to teach you whenever you see others earning what you need to waste no time in foolish wishing, but cast a line for yourScIf.”â€" Good Housekeeping. The Painless \Vay. Before the days of chloroform there was a quack in San Francisco who advertised tooth drawing without pain. Tho patient was placed in a chair and a wrench given, when he roared violently. “I thought you said there was no pain?” “So there is not by my process. That is Cartwright’s way. That's the way he does it. It’s very different from mine.” Another rug, and a still more violent howl. “That’s 1 the way Dumerge pulls teeth,” and the “You don't like , in, no doubt. Who would?” Another twist; was given, and the patient, as a rule, howled worse than ever. “That,” the dentist says, “is Parkinson’s mode.” By this time the tooth was nearly out. “I will now,” he said, “display my own method,” whereupon he triumphantly withdrew the tooth and hold it up for in- spection. “You observe that by my truly scientific process there is really no pain whatever. ”â€"New York Tribune. An Unburled King. It will surprise most people to learn that the late king of Spain is not yet but- ied, but, covered with a winding sheet, lies on a marble slab in a vault of the Escurial. This is in accordance with a custom dating from the year 1700. The body will lie where it is until the present king dies. Then it; will be deposited with great pomp beside the remains of his pred- ecessors in the chapel of the Escurial. Power In Ancient Arrows.

WHY SHE WAS GRACIOUS. A Lover Who Easily Fell Into an Ingen- ious Trap. She was particularly gracious that night, and ho was corrcspondingly happy. He felt that ho had made an impression at last. She let him hold her hand a minute whom she welcomed him, and ho thought â€"in fact, ho was quite sureâ€"that shc re- Spoildcd to the gcntlc squeeze he gave it, and licri‘toforc sho had been so distant, so cold, although always courteous. Surely it. was cnough to make him feel happy. Thcn she laughed at his witticisms, and them was something in her manner that invitcd him to draw his chair closer to hers. Of course he accepted the invitation, and almost before he knew it he found himsvlf whispering all sorts of silly things to her, while she listened with downcus: eyes. It; was blissful, and yet there was a gri-atcr pleasure in store for him. She blushed and hesitated a little as she asked if he had a photograph of himself. Of courso ho had, and she should have. one that very night. He would go for one at once. She. protested that that was not; necessary, but he insisted. She should have anything that she wanted and have it at. once. Shc thanked him so coyly and sweetly when he brought it that the boy was near- ly insane with joy, and when he left she let him hold her band again for a minute. Thou, as ho walked away with a light step and a light; heart, she handed the photograph to her maid and said with de- cision: “Mary, hang that in tho sorvants’ hall, where every one can see it, and remember that I am never home when he calls. I must stop this thing somehow, and mum- ma changes servants so often he gets in every week or two now. ”â€"â€"Harlcm Life. Fruit Foods. Each year folks grow to appreciate more fully the value of fruit and eat it not as a luxury, but as a staple article of food. Fruits are nourishing, refreshing, appetiz~ ing and purifying, and consequently have effect upon the health and the complexion. Yet there are differences. Grapes and ap- ples are highly nutritious. Grapes usually agree with the most delicate persons, for they are so easily digested. Nothing is easier to digest than a baked apple taken either with or without cream. Oranges, lemons and limes are of great value as a means of improving the complexion, and they are especially good if taken before breakfast. Ripe peaches are easy of digcs= tion, and arc fattening. Nothing is better to enrich the blood than strawberries, which contain a larger percentage of iron than any other fruit. Fruit with firm flesh, liko apples, cherries or plums, should be thoroughly masticated; otherwise they are difficult to digest. The skin of raw fruit should never be eaten, and before eat- ing grapes or any small fruit care should be taken to remove all impurities by wash- ing. Never swallow grape stones. Stale fruit and unripe fruit should never be cut- en, and very acid fruit should not be taken with farinuneous foods unless the person has a vigorous digestionâ€"New York Sun. Heard the Baby. “Last summer,” says a. telephone man- ager of Chicago, “a big, portly, smiling but excited man rushed in and asked if he could reach Evansville, Ind., by phone. He was assured that he could, and in about two minutes he disappeared in a booth to talk to his wife. Well, he talked Ibout 15 minutes. Finally he bounced out of the box, slapping his thigh. ‘Thcy’re on me, gentlemen,’ he said. ‘I’ll be right back.’ He darted out, and in two minutes was back with a box of as good cigars as lever smoked. ‘It’s a boy,’ he exclaimed, ‘and he’s got about as good lungs as I ever heard at close range!‘ Then he told the story. He had to be ub- sont from home, and a telegram had just come notifying him of the new arrival. He had rushed into the office, called up his residence and insisted that the nurse bring the baby to the telephone and make it laugh or cry. It cried, and he heard it, 800 miles away.”â€"Exchange.
