THE MAN IN THE MOON. Some Curious and Varied Beliefs as to His Identity. According to Pratorius, the man in the moon is the patriarch Isaac, carrying the bundle of sticks which were lighted to sacrifice his own body on the mountain top. Dante believes him to be Cain, carrying a bundle of thorns, the meanest offering his lands afforded, as a present to God. In Iceland, the people claim that they can see the face of Adam in the moon and that of Eve in the sun. Among the Frieburgers there is a superstition which says that the marks and spots on the moon's face are the outlines of the traitor Judas Iscariot, holding his hand over his face while sneezing just prior to hanging himself. This last belief accords with the old Frankish legend which says that there was no spot on Luna's bright face until after the time of the crucifixion of Christ. Still, another story tells us that in the time of the creation God threw an offending angel against the face of the moon, while another is to the effect that the moon witnessed the creation of Adam and Eve and took an impress of their features on his surface, intending to people his own land with similar beings. When he essayed to imitate God's works, he made nothing but a slimy serpent, which since that day has continued to fold and unfold its mighty coils in full view of the descendants of the God created beings. THE TOMB OF CAIN. It Is Said to Be Not Far From the City of Damascus. The early traditions concerning the city of Damascus are curious and interesting, even though untrustworthy and contradictory. By some of the ancient writers it was maintained that the city stands on or near the site of the garden of Eden, and just opposite there is a beautiful meadow of red earth from which, it is said, God took the material from which he created Adam. This field is called Ager Damascenus, and near its center there formerly stood a pillar which was said to mark the precise spot where our first parent was created. A few miles out there is an eminence called the Mountain of Abel, supposed by some to be the place where the first two brothers offered their sacrifices, also the spot where the first boy of The Regiment. BOY OF THE REGIMENT. With His Dying Breath He Asked Garibaldi For a Coin. When Enzo Ferretti entered actively into the Italian war of independence he was just seventeen. He left Parma secretly, deserting, as it were, his father, mother and family to fight for his hero, Garibaldi. He walked over the Apennines without a penny in his pocket and, arriving half dead at Genoa, concealed himself on one of the ships bound for Sicily. When at his destination he emerged and gained the nickname of the "boy of the regiment." From that time for some months he fought until the day for rest came. He was shot in the head and carried to the hospital in a dangerous condition. Everything possible was done for him, but it was evident that he was troubled, and at last it came out that he could not die happy because he had never seen his hero. "I have fought everywhere and sought always," he exclaimed, "but I have never succeeded in seeing him. How can I die never having caught a glimpse of him?" Another preoccupation was that he feared he might be buried without a coffin. Morning, noon and night his cry was, "Let me have a coffin!" The very day he died, by a fortunate chance, Garibaldi arrived at the hospital. Having heard Ferretti's story, he stooped and spoke to him. The sick boy's expressive face lighted up and he exclaimed: "Now I can die happy. Oh, general, let me have a coffin!" TRAGIC IN ITS BREVITY. The Story of the Duel Between Hamilton-Burr duel is tragic in its brevity. The little party of five—the principals, their seconds and the surgeon—was on the ground not long after sunrise. The preliminaries were soon arranged. As Pendleton, Hamilton's second, gave him his pistol, he asked, "Will you have the hairspring set?" "Not this time," was the significant reply, and then the men faced each other. According to the best authorities upon a disputed subject, Burr fired at the word. At the report, Hamilton started forward with a convulsive movement, reeled, involuntarily discharging his pistol into the follicle above him, and fell headlong.

A ferronniere was a band or chain round the head, holding a jewel in the center of the forehead. The last instance of its being in fashionable use was furnished by America early in the nineteenth century. Mrs. Earle, the historian of transatlantic costume, vouches for this curious survival. This ornament is known to have been popular in Europe in the sixteenth century, and in the east it could probably be traced back to remote antiquity. Biblical students know that the Jews, following a custom of the ancient Egyptians, often adopted this method of wearing their phylacteries, or frontlets, between their eyes. The modern application of the name is, according to Mrs. Earle, obscure, but there does not appear to be much doubt about the matter. One of the pictures of Leonardo da Vinci goes by the name of "La Belle Ferronniere." It would seem to be a portrait of Lucrezia Crivelli, a favorite of Ludovico Sforza, and, as the lady is depicted wearing one of these ornaments, it is clear that the name owes its revival to this picture—London Standard. An Odd Swimming Contest. Sir John Pakington, a courtier of Queen Elizabeth, was a reckless layer of wagers. He once bet £8,000 that he would swim the Thames from the bridge at Westminster to the bridge at Greenwich faster than three relays of young noblemen. Sir John won this bet. The relays of noblemen, though they swam hard, were badly beaten. The queen was present at the race, and to the losers she gave, by way of a consolation prize, a butt of sack. Character Analysis.

The traditions respecting this famous spot are known to antedate the Christian era by several hundred years. Up to the time of Vespasian the interior of the tomb is said to have been lighted and warmed by one of the "ever burning" lamps so commonly used by the ancients. THE FERRONNIERE.

Skylarks are rather prolific birds, having two broods in the year, and often laying as many as five eggs, though four is the usual number. The nest is so difficult to find that it is practically never discovered except by accident, as when, for instance, the hayfields are mown, or what is being hoed. The bird very seldom nests near the margin of a field, where it might be put off its nest by passersby. On the shores of the North sea skylarks will nest in the "bents" and "mammum" close to the edge of the sandy hills, though they have to fetch food to their young from a considerable distance. There is always something very pleasing in the sight of a lark's nest. It is usually sunk in a hollow, and, unlike the nests of many ground building birds, is most carefully made, the cup being deep and perfectly circular, and lined with very fine grasses, though the outer part is made of rough, dead bents, and often of a most irregular shape in order to fill up the hole in which it is made.—London Spectator, Tennyson's "Married Brows." "I have a question to ask," announced the literary man. "You know Tennyson's line: "The charm of married brows. Well, did he mean by that the crowning charm of married women, or did he refer to the charm of eyebrows that meet in the middle? In the Arabian Nights' there are many passages in which such eyebrows are spoken of as a great charm, indeed, but in the west our beauty doctors give explicit directions to prevent such growths.

When one family borrows a kettle from another, it is expected when the kettle is returned a small portion of the food that has been cooked in it will be left in the bottom. Should this custom be disregarded by any one, that person would never be able to borrow again, as the owner must always know what has been cooked in her kettle. A white woman on one occasion returned a scoured kettle, intending to teach a lesson in demeaness, but her act became the talk of the camp as a fresh example of the meanness of the whites.

An Industry Which Has Lately Sprung Up In the West. Oil which is said to be superior to linseed oil for mixing paints is now extracted from corn. Heretofore crude oil has been obtained by pressure, but the latest method is to extract it by what is known as the solvent process. This is the method employed at the new corn oil mill at Decatur, Ill., the only one of its kind in the country. The process of separating the oil from the corn is simple in theory, but somewhat complicated in its practical application. A solvent is used, the solvent being a light oil subject to evaporation. The oil bearing portions of the corn are steeped in the solvent, which takes up the corn oil. The solvent is then drawn from the bottom of the tank in which this part of the process takes place. The two oils are separated by distillation. The corn oil is passed through filter presses to remove particles of starch or other foreign matter and is then ready for the market. The solvent is condensed and carried back to the storage tank to be used again. The corn from which the oil has been extracted is steamed and is then ready for the market as a feed. The process of separating this oil from the corn is similar to that of separating sugar from beets, the difference being in the solvent used. The stock feed is not entirely devoid of oil. Enough is left to make it per cent oil, which it is claimed, is a sufficient ratio of oil in a well balanced feed. This feed is not in the form of cake, as it comes from the linseed oil mills, but is in the shape of a dry meal, partly cooked and partly predigested. How the Mussel Travels. Of all the absurd forms of locomotion practiced by the creatures of the deep the most preposterous is that of the mussel. Squids will startle you by darting backward, crabs hustle off sideways at a lively gait, but nothing save the dull brain of "some kind of clam critter," pondering over the transportation problem in those remote epochs when time was no object, could have evolved so slow and cumbersome a method. You may often see mussels climb up the pile of a wharf toward the high water mark. Notice the black threads attached to the clam. They do the business. The mussel shoots out a spray of gelatinous stuff in the direction he measures. MEASURING MEDICINE. Places Where They Still Take a Dimeful as a Dose. A man went into a New York drug store and asked the clerk for a remedy for indigestion. The clerk sifted a pink powder into the scales. "Take a heaping dimeful of this," he said. "It will bring you around all right." The man's astonishment was almost powerful enough to drive away the indigestion without the aid of the powder. "A dimeful?" he ejaculated. "What kind of a newfangled system of measurement is that you have here?" "It isn't new," replied the clerk. "And it is very simple. Just take a dime and pile as much of this powder on it as will stick. That will be the proper dose. You couldn't get it any more exact if you measured for half an hour with scales and spoons." "Well," said the customer, "this is a new one on me." Then he proceeded to measure out a dose of the pink powder. As he did so a man standing close beside him sighed reminiscently. "It makes me feel young to see you do that," he said. "They used to measure medicine that way when I was a kid. I supposed modern appliances had driven all those old methods of measurement out of the market." "Not at all," said the clerk. "There are lots of places where they still take medicine by the dimeful." MANAGEMENT OF WIVES. What the Tactful Husband Does When His Helgeet Weeps. One thing the tactful husband does is to let his wife cry. I don't mean that he drives her to crying or that he lets her weep while he stands unsympathetically by with his hands in his trousers pockets, his feet apart and grinning sardonicly. I mean that when an emotional woman needs a good cry he realizes that it will relieve the tension. He does not get up and rage about and kick footstools out of the way and say, "Oh, for heaven's sake, stop crying or you'll drive me to drink!" No. He goes and pats her shoulder soothingly and says: "There, little woman! I'm sorry the cook has left and your new gown books up crookedly, but cheer up. Let's go out and have a jolly little dinner." Ill write that taller a High Pews. During the reign of William Mary in England a worthy bishop explained to the latter that the ladies the court were wont to fix their eyes their neighbors rather than on during his discourses. It apparently never occurred to the divine that fault might lie in the sermons that selves. By consent of the queen pews were introduced to prevent widing eyes. "As for the young lady for whose spiritual welfare they devised," says a writer, "their indignation was only surpassed by the rags their admirers." From that high pews were commonly placed churches.

Southern California, 12 miles north of the ocean, has 4½ miles from the hills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles second largest city in the St. Louis County. The climatic conditions are most favorable for out-door recreation, be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely warm, seldom rising above 65 degrees in summer, or falling below 20 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of frosts and cold winds make place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe cold of the east. The country is very attractive, is practically level, with just a slight slope from the hills to adequate drainage. The rocky level, well graded, and well affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The rich sandy loam which never grows is a popular street ditty, barrows were used to distribute the cakes, and Dalmer finally retired on the profits of the business. Disraeli's Devoted Wife On the way down to Hatfield Mrs. Disraeli had a fall on the premises of a dealer in marble and cut her face most severely. When she reached her destination she took her hostess aside and said: "My husband is preparing a great speech. If he finds out that I have had this accident he will be quite upset. I want you take me straight up into my room and say I've a headache. He has lost his eyeglass, and if you put me a long way from him at dinner he will never see what condition I am in." The plan answered admirably, and Disraeli did not find out what had happened two days.—Diary of Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff.

Then she looks up through her tears and thinks how handsome and big and strong and glorious he is, and before the dinner is over she has thought up two ways in which to economize and so pay for the extravagance of his order to the waiter, for the common purse is not elastic, and she knows it—Lillian Bell in Harper's Bazar. The Real Unicorn Early in the last century the unicorn of ancient myth came within the realm of scientific knowledge in the form of the white rhinoceros, the largest, next to the elephant, of modern quadrupeds. For long years the unicorn's only known habitat was on a coat of arms. Ancient writers who had told of it were discredited until a one horned rhinoceros, found by Marco Polo in Sumatra, received this name. And early in the last century Burchell also discovered in South Africa, between the Orange and Zambesi rivers, the huge white pachyderm. It had, in truth, two horns, but one was so small as to be scarcely perceptible, while the other, tufted with bristles at the base, was so many as four feet long, curving and tapering to a hard, sharp point.

BILIOUSNESS AND CONSTIPATION CURED BY THEDFORD'S BLACK-DRAUGHT Because the liver is neglected people suffer with constipation, billiousness, headaches and fevers. Colds attack the lungs and contagious diseases take hold of the system. It is safe to say that if the liver were always kept in proper working order, illness would be almost unknown. Thedford's Black-Draught is so successful in curing such sickness because it is without a rival as a liver regulator. This great family medicine is not a strong and drastic drug, but a mild and healthful laxative that cures constipation and may be taken by a mere child without possible harm. The healthful action on the liver cures billiousness. It has an invigorating effect on the kidneys. Because the liver and kidneys do not work regularly, the poisonous acids along with the waste from the bowels get back into the blood and virulent contagion results. Timely treatment with Thedford's Black-Draught removes the dangers which lurk in constipation, liver and kidney troubles, and will positively forestall the inroads of Bright's disease, for which disease in advanced stages there is no cure. Ask your dealer for a 25c. package of Thedford's Black-Draught. And when we married, he said "we'll have to take a nice little flat up town somewhere."

ONE ON TEDDY It has been reported of President Roosevelt that only once has he found himself at a loss for words to clearly and forcibly express himself. That time was when the presidential party visited the Grand Canyon in Arizona last summer. After gazing from its brink for several minutes, the President turned to Paul Morton and said: "It is beyond comparison, beyond description. it's awful." There is but one Grand Canyon, one way to reach it. Ask the Santa Fe agent. General Passenger agent Jno. J. Byrne, of the Santa Fe has authorized another special (personally conducted) excursion to the St. Louis World's Fair, via the Grand Canyon in Arizona. The party will leave here Wednesday, Sept. 7th, and will spend one whole day at the canyon en route.

The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue.
