In Fez there are fire doctors who su in the more frequented streets Waitlrlg for rheumatism patients. Ech docti i has a little furnace, a pa i r of bellows and a number ol c iriously-shaped ii n rods beiore him. When not operating, he solemnly and incessantly re ds ; book of one sentence : "There is no G id but G d, a- c Mohammed is his prophet.'' When a patient appears the d cto lays down his book, blows up his fir- with hi-: bellows and siirks into t1 e coals several of the ri ds, which at about two leet long and have quet: knobs ,ind hooks on their heated ends While Willing for these to get hi l In constantly repeats h:s one si ntence. When all is ready the patient pay his fee, lies down on his lace and drawn his cloth ng up on his back.

It makes a "sizzling" noise, a smell ol burned flesh fills the aii Meantime a crowd of nun h:.ve c. : lecied to witness the operation. They incessantly pass their linger throug their beards and praise God and Mi hammed.

It it comes he perceives that he is not quite cured, and demands an other installment of the treatment, f i which he pays another lee. Youths Companion. Man and Parrot Working Together. A man whom I can name has a par rot for a partner at least I think so. The man keeps a railroad restaurant, and quite a number of travellers patron ize it. 1 had been up town and saw the few customers for my line of goods that the place contained, and con cluded I wou d have a nice hot dinner at the depot. Half a dozen pers ns were at the lunch counter when 1 mounted my stool for a "quick hot roast beef." I h.,d just ab mt -tarted on the delicious meal when I heard the ringing of an engine bell ind a voice t the door shout: "Hurry up, you din n fools; train's ready!" I jumped from the stool and with the rest rushed for the platform at the end of the depot, and there found onl) a dummy engine When we returned t a the counter the dish' s had been re moved ! We were all mid when wt discovered that the warning came from a trained parrot which the proprietor had placed in a cage over the do - r leading to the platform. I have alwayi thought since then thai the owner oi th.it restaurant and the parr .1 wire in "cahoots'' on crjclcrs and beefsteak pie."

Uur guide, who is an old man, said that he could remember when tho salt crystals first began to gather upon the surface of the water. Year by year, owing to the evaporation of th" water, the crystals became more numerous and then caked together till this great roof fortni d. In 1H78 the water beneath this salt crystal roof found an underground out let into the Kivcr Obi. This lowered the lake's surface about three feet, leaving that distance between the water and Iff roof. Looking down through one of tin openings made for the purpose in the roof, we saw a low sided small boat. Our guide put us ono at a time into the boat. We lay fiat on our back and looked up at the curiously beautiful salt oeiling overhead. We propelled the boat by pushing with our hands itgHinst the irregulariti'. s of the roof. Tho guide held a long rope attached to the boat to prevent our going too far and getting lost a thing he said it was easj to do. Many springs surround this lake. Their water flows over the roof and evaporates there, and thus continually adds to its thickness. After many years the springs will probably become choked with their own deposits, and then the whole will gradually become covered with earth, ?id so a great salt mine will be formed a treasure for the Siberians hundreds of years to come.

LET IN ON THE GROUND FLOOR. Hun a Wlilim Made of What sh- Heard Itiillrntttl IMrcrtorn Nov. A few years ago it widow and her daughter wt -, occupying n section in a Pullman si per on the Mis ourl I'edflo railroad, The section next to this lady happened to be occupied by a couple of the directors of that railroad. The par tition between the two sections was so thin that it v, is not difficult for a con versation carried on in one section to he heard in tin- oilier. The lady traveler heard the two directors discussing a plan of consolidation whereby the stock of the Ifissonri Pacific was bound to be greatly enhanced in value. It was then worth but 2 or It cms on the dollar. She was on her return trip to her home in Hartford. The conver sation of the two directors preyed on her mind. She revolved it over and over again until her home was reach' !. about which tini" a 3,000 note due hi i was re deemed. She si nt for her attorney, de tailed to him the conversation she had heard and said she wns almost resolved to invest the If". UO in Missouri Pacific. The attorney, mistaking her announced resolution for irony, laughed, but the WOBUU "f wealth persisted. "It is but a.1,000,'1 she said, "and if l loso 1 shall have just ns much to eat as 1 have always had and jttst as much to wear. If the plans betrayed by these two directors work out. I shall mako a good deal of money buying Missouri Pa cific" Tho attorney obeyed the instructions of his client, invested the !;..( 0 . and in less than a month the proposed consoli dation was consummated, and the Hart ford widow realized for her $5,000 invest ment 1380,000, At the first blush this in cident is set down as proof of luck. It was simply an unexpected exhibi tion of what in Wall street vernacular is termed "nerve" on the part of a quick eared and quicker witted woman. Not one person in 10.000 would have given any heed to the conversation referred to, and not one of a thousand who might have heard and heeded and w ho hap pened to have the money, as the widow had it, would have dared invest it. These incidents mid illustrations might ho expanded until volumes were tilled. The evidence would be cumulative that eyes and ears and brain make what the thoughtless term luck.

There is ono lawyer in the city who will never again make use of Latin phrases in writing business letters. A short time ago he had to write a letterto a client in a neighboring city regarding an important lawsuit that was to come up before tho court in tho course of a few days. The information he solicited was highly essential to his case. In writ ing this epistle he made use of a letter head with his printed address at the top. In closing his letter he signed himself thus: "John Langdon, Address ut supra." Af ter waiting several days for the re ply, which did not come, ho again wrote his procrastinating client and asked why ho had not sooner answered his first let ter. The next day he received a replyin which the client said that he had an swered the letter and addressed it to John Langdon. Ut Supra, N. Y." Buf falo Expre.-s. They Might Wttlk Hack.

'Tho president said, 'Phew-w-wT ' 'Why do you whistle?' I asked. ' 'Because he wants a consulate in Mexico,' said tho president. 'You know very well that 1 dislike to appoint Tex an to those positions.' ' 'Now, Mr. President,' I said, 'you will excuse my speaking plainly, but this prejudice against men from mystate holding federal positions in Mexico is the moBt confounded nonsense on record. I grant that it might apply to tho candi date for minister, for he handles interna tional questions, but a consul is nothing more nor less than a business man.

It is natural logic to conclude that if Wampole's Preparation OF Cod Liver Oil has power to prevent Consumption, it sure ly is able to cure these lesser emergencies. This vigor-making, fat pro ducing preparation is Absolute ly Tasteless, in so far as Cod Liver Oil is concerned. All you notice is a delightful llavor of Wild Cherry and Anise. But the purest Norwegian Cod Liver Oil is there all the same. It is a great blood en richer. Best of all it is a natu ral food that in its stomachic effects, actually assists its own assimilation.
