Spurzhcitn. the father of modern phrenology, while staying In Edin burgh w here he had a great vogue, was the victim of it laughable hoax. A number of medical students submitted for the opinion of the phrenologist the plaster cast of what they said was a remarkably formed human skull. As a matter of fact it was the model of a big Swedish turnip (called in the Scot tish tongue "neip"), and of this Spurz helin gravely wrote out the phreno logical character.

Europe has for many years had a monopoly of the emigration business, ard has sent over some of her most undesir able inhabitants, without getting a wallop in return. It is true that ,we did ship William Waldorf Astor to England some years ago, and he had the good fortune to slip by the authorities when they were not looking, but he has been about the only emigrant of note we have been able to induce to seek bis fortune in the old world, and the account has thus stood unbalanced, with little prospect of settlement* Njw however all is changed. Mrs. Og den Goelet, having raked enough money together to pay for asteerage passage in a cattle ship, is about to take up her abode on the other side of the ocean, and will sail as soon as she can get her suit case packed. She is very reticent about her pi?"" once she reaches the other side. Her reason for leaving America, she says, is because the people here are so rude and unmannerly that ?he can bear them no longer, so she dies to the courts of Europe, where polite noblemen beat their own wives one day and wives of other men the next. Of course this is a mere blind, but the real reason is so deeply hidden that no questioning has been able to uncover it. Wheth er Mrs. Goelet will go into trade? having shown her busi ness ability by swapping her daughter for the position of mother-in law to a duke ? or will take up some other line of business equally respectable and remunerative, cannot be told. It does not matter, It is enough that there is at last some chance of get ting even with Europe for the im migrants of the past 50 years. Now that emigration is a settled fact, It is to be hopedjthat Europe will not pass restrictive laws until we can slip over some of Mrs. Goe' lei's friends, whom, in our rude ness, we can very well spare. But if Europe sees them first, the game is up. A Miraculous Cure. My daughter was afflicted with a fever sore on her leg for over a year, helpless in bed three or four months, and the doctors wished me to take her to a hospital. A num ber of pieces of bone came out of the sore, showing the bone to be badly effected and It was thought thBt the leg would hive tobe opened and the bone scraped or the leg amputated. Hearing of the cures of San-Cura Ointment, we applied it as directed and to the great sur prise of all, including the four phy sicians who had attended her, the great sore healed up in less than six weeks San-Cara Ointment was worth five hundred dollars to me and all my neighbors will verify this statment.

A Pennsylvania farmer named nans was subject lo some kind of fits which rendered him totally unconscious for hours at a time and on several occa sions convinced his good wife that she was a widow. It was pretty generally known th:it slio was by no means averse to the widowed state, for she nnd the doughty Hans did not live in peace and .-unity. One day Ilans was stricken as usual. The good wife applied the usual reme dies, but this time they failed to revive the unconscious man. A doctor was called, and after a thorough examina tion he shook his head and said sol emnly: "I>ot Iss 7.11 bed. Hiss Iss todt (dead)." The widow pretended to be overcome with grief, and, leaning over the pros trate form of her husband, she walled: "Oh, mein Hans Iss todt! Mcin Hans iss todt!"

The wedding ring, according to Henry Swinburne of the seventeenth century, was first designed by Prometheus and fashioned out of adamant and iron by Tubal Cain. lie says that it was "given by Adam to his son to this end ?that therewith he should espouse a wife." Men were, as all women know, deceivers ever, and some of these un scrupulous creatures were wont to wed with rings made of rushes, imagining them to be less binding than a strong and valuable ring. The bishop of Salis bury, however, stepped in and forbade tliis practice In 1217. Silver was more frequently used than gold for wedding rings, and they were made in all kinds of shapes, some twisted, like two joined hands, or a pair of hearts stuck together with an arrow. Often they were adorned with precious stones and had "posies"? that Is, scraps of verse? Inside, such as: Fortune doth Bond you, hap it well or 111, This plain gold ring to wed you to your will.
