And looks 11p in her face
With a glow of loving, joyous pride
And a truly royal grace;

Would shield her without fear.
The boy who loves his mother well..
I‘Hcr little cavalier. 7
To see no tears of sorrow
Upon her loving cheek, -
TO gain her sweet, approving smile.
To hear hér softly speak—
Ah, what in all this wide, wide world
Could be to him so dear,
The boy who loves his mother well,
Her little cavalier?
Look for that boy in the future
Among the good and true,
All blessings on the upward way
Ills feet shall still pursuel
Of robed and crowned and sceptred kings
IIIc stands the royal peer,
The boy who loves his mother well,
Her noble cavalier.
~ From the San Francisco Cali.
Jones &. Co.
I guess pa and ma were pretty- rich one
time, for when they came to California it Was
on their wedding tour, and cost lots—came
by the way of New York and Washington
and Panama City in a steamboat, and ma
brought a maid to wait on her, and pa had a
servant named Jim; and when we got to
California—I say we; I’m only 14 now, but
I was not born,‘then, though that don’t mat-
ter—I guess pa had lots of money. ' I was
born at the Lick house, and you ought to sec‘
my baby clothes. Jones & Co. haven’t the
kind of goods these were because Maud has
draggled them all to pieces. Maud is the
baby. Six years old Maud is; and it won’t
be long before she will be a clerk for Jones
& Co. First babies always have the nicest
things. Ma says first babies are like second
wives.
Well, I am of the opinion that after pa
want intoIhis house on Van Ness avenue he
went into stocks, whatever that means. Go-
ing into stocks must be a curious business;
and sométimes pa came home looking splen-
did, and wanted to buy everything, and
laughed at ma for being so mean, and not
getting better clothes; bad then he wanted
to drive in the park and go to the theatre.
One day he came home with a brand new
carriage and a span of long-tail horses, and a
coachman and footman. Then sometimes pa'
came home and looked very bluc, and talked
about stocks, and I began to watch pa, and
noticed that when he laughed the loudest he
looked as if he wanted to cry, and then he
sold the horses and then the house, and the
furniture was sent to the auction, and ma
felt very bad, and pa wasn’t like himself any
more, and never told me stories nor" kissed
me ; and once when Maud was asleep in his
arms he kissed her and cried, and when I
told ma she guessed pa did not feel very
well, and then she cried. After this 'we went
to a boarding-bouse—a nasty, musty board-
ing-house. Everything was .well enough,
only a boarding-house ain’t like home.
Then the baby came, and it died, and ma
almost died; and I heard pa say to the man
that kept the boarding-house that he was
pretty tight up, but it was all coming out
right; and the next day pa didn’t have any
watch nor any sleevebuttons. I didn’t seem
to notice it, because I saw that maybe he had
sold to pay board; and I heard pa and ma
talk away in the night, and sometimes ma
cried, and pa would look in the morning just
as if he hadn't slept a wink, and I don’t’ be-
lieve he had. Once it was dreadful. Pa
came home tipsy; and I never saw ma’ feel
so bad, never; and then they talked it over,
and finally ma went home to grandpa's in
New York with Maud, and I stayed with pa
to go to school. Thenpa kept getting worse
and worse, and went to live in rooms and
eat at restaurants; and pa stayed out late
nights, and I guess he drank more than was
good for him; and I thought something had
got to be done. So I said to pa one day: —
“Pa, let’ s go into business, and open a
store. "
And he laughed and said:
I a store ?”
And I said, “Oh! a candy store, or a sta-
tionery store, or a thread and needle store,
just such as women keep and little girls help
in 17
And pa laughed, and said he would think
of it, and when he came home that night I
asked him if he had thought about it, and he
e-said he had not; and I said he had better,
and he said he would ; and that morning he
didn’t go out, but stayed at home and wrote
ma :1 long letter. So next day I went into a
store on Polk street, keptby, a nice old lady
who had a bad husband, where they sold
everything,and she said in Flench they called
it lingerie. 1 did not know whht she meant
because it was French, and I asked'he'r if she
did not want to sell he: store, and she said 1
“Do you want to buy a store, little girl?"
And I said: “My pa does.” And she smiled
and said she guessed the sheriff would have
a store to sell in a few days. I saidI would
tell pa, because he knew Mr. Nunan the
sheriff. It was one of Mr. Nunan’s men that
sold pa’s house and furniture for him. _
And the next day I told pa about the store
“What kind of
and what a nice one it was, and he had been -
a dry-goods man once, and bad bad a'large
store, and sold silk dress goods, and velvets,
and furs, and laces worth more than $1, 000
apiece. .
I don’ t exactly know what pa did, but I
think something “turned up” a few days
afterward, for I heard him say he had made
a “raise,” and he showed me more than $1,-
000 in gold and notes, and for a day or two
he carried them in a side pocket, and mostly
kept his hand over them, forfearthey would
jump out and fly away; and pi: bought me '
some shoes and a hat, and stuff for aprons,
and I made them myself, and I never saw pa
look so happy since ma went away, and one
day he said to me:
“Vevie, I have bought the store on Polk
street, and you are to be my saleswoman and
partner.”
And sure enough, in a few days we went
into the store, and over the door was a great
big sign of “Jones 85 Co." and pa said I was
the “Co. ”
you are Jones P”
he didn’t like his old friends to know that he
was selling needles and thread and tape and
, things. We had two snug little rooms in
the back of the store to sleep in, and I made
pa’s bed and swept out the rooms and: tidied
things. At first‘pa shut upfhe store when
he had to go down. town on business, but
after a little While I tended it, and when
there were two customers in the store I wait-
ed on one, and it wasn’t long before I could
make change almost 'as good as pa could;
and by and by when he went down town I
tended store, and we had splendid times.
We went to a nice place across the street to
our meals; I tended store when pawent, and
pa tended store when I went.
One day pa came in and looked dreadfully
troubled, and .then I said: ' “Pa, ain’t I a
partner and don’t partners have a right to
know everything, and ain’t you hiding some-
thing about Jones 6% 00.?”
too many things for the store, and that a note
for $1, 000 had to be paid, and that’s what
made pa feel bad. And then I thought and
wondered how I could get $1, 000; and I
kept on thinking over everybody that I
guessed had $1,000,11nd everyone thatI
guessed had it I guessed would not lend it
' he could be.
And when I said, “And so, pa,’
He blushed, and Iguess’
to‘pa. And then I thought about the rich
Mr. Flood, and said: “I will go down to the
bank and get it, for he’s' got more than a
thousand millions; and down to the bank of
Nevada the cellar is full of gold, and, of
course, he doesn't use it all ' the time; and
before Mr. Flood wants it I’ll take it back
and pay the interest.” And then I jumped
up and hurrahed for Jones & 00., took my
best bonnetand put on my gloves, took off
my store apron and combed my hair, and got ,
into a car; went to the Nevada bank, told
the clerk I wanted to borrow‘$1,000; and he
laughed and said I had better see Mr. McLane.
I asked who Mr. McLane was, and the clerk
said Mr. McLane was the president and was
inthe back room, and I went into the back
rodm, and Mr. McLans said:
“Well, little girl, what can I do for you ?”
And I said: “I want to borrow $1,000 ?"
Mr. McLane opened his eyes and turned
his chair around and looked at me, and said :
“A thousand dollars)! with as much surprise
as though $1,000 was all the money he had
in the bank. Then Ivbegan to get scared and.
cried, and then I told Mr. MeLsne all about
pa and “Jones & 00.,” and what we wanted
to do with the money, and that I would pay
it back Fe him; and he looked kinder puz-
zled, and asked me what pa’s name was, and
. ‘I told him all about mo and Maud, and how
the baby died. I guess that was not very.
much like business, and I don’t know what
Mr. McLane wanted to know all that for.
Then he looked at me again, andI guess that
he wasn’t going to let me have the money,
when a gentleman at the other desk came up
to' where I was sitting in a chair, and Mr.
McLane said. "
“Well, Flood, what do you think of this
young merchant ?” I
And then I knew it was the rich Mr.
Flood; -'and I looked into his eyes; and‘ he
said: -
“Let her have the money; I will indorsc
.her note” ‘
Then I jumped up and kissed him, and he
kissed me; and Mr. McLane made a note,
for ninety days, and I signed “Jones&Co.,”’
and Mr. Flood wrote his name on the back
of it. I took the money away in a canvass
bag, that Mr. McLane said I must bring
back, and I toOk the money to pa; and didn’t
he look surprised when I poured out the
great big $20 gold pieces on the counter?
Then I told him what had happened at the
bank, and when I asked him if he. didn’t
think I was a pretty good business woman
after all, I guess he felt real ashamed.
After this I never saw anything like it—
such lots of carriages and nice ladies kept
coming every day, and most all of them
traded with me, and pa was just as happy as
Jones 85 Co. was making lots
of money. When I took Mr..Flood's money
back I just marched right through the bank,
past. the big counters, into Mr. McLanc's
room. and I took very good care to let the
rcierk that laughed at me before see the bag.
Mr. Flood was in there and Mr. McLane, and
I opened the bag. Mr. Flood came up and
laughed, and Mr. McLane laughed. and I
heard Mr. Flood tell Mr. McLsne they would
have the lunch to-day. And then Mr. Flood
told me, if I wanted to borrow .money again
no; to go to other banks but to come to his,
and I thanked him,'and Mr. McLane brought
my note cancelled by agreat .bluc “Paid”
stamped across the face right over where. I
wrote “Jones & 00." Then I told Mr. Flood
that when we felt able to send for ma I
should come over and borrow some more
money because I wanted to buy a house for
ma and Maud, so that they wouldn’t have to
go to any more nasty-boarding-houses, and
Mfr. Flood said I should have all the money I
wanted. ,
When we sent for ms and Maud, grandpa
gave ma the money to come, and so we
didn’t have to borrow any more; and we
took a nice cottage not very near the store,
for pa didn’t want ma to know about Jones
& 00., though I was just crazy to' tell her.
For several days we fooled her ?" She
thought pa had a store down town and I was
going to school. I told lots of fibs about
being detained at school, going down town,
' and all sorts of stories {:1 account for being
home late. One°dayw 0 should I see com-
ing into the store but 1113.
“Have you anypearl shirt buttons, little
girl ?” said ma.
“Y es, ma’am,” said I, looking her right
square in the face.
“Goodness gracious 1” said ma.
you, Vevie l”
I said, “Beg pardon, ma’am. what did you
want ?" And then ma looked at me again.
I had a store apron on and a small cap like
a French girl; and because I wasn’t very
high pa bought me a pair of wooden brogans,
with felt buttons, into which I slipped my
feet, and thcymade. me four or five inches
taller ; and ma stared at me and then laughed
and said:
“Oh, I beg your pardon, little girl; you
look so much like my daughter Genevieve
that I thought you were her."
Then I heard pa snicker down behind the
counter. He had seen ma come hand be
bid. J ust? as soon as ma went out pa jumped
up and laughed and said: “Snatch off your
apron and cap, chie, and run round the
block and get home before your mother.”
I did so, andwhen ma got home she was
the most surprised person you ever saw. We
knew the thing wouldn’t last, and so that
night we "told ma all about the house of
“Jones 85 00.,” and ma kissed pa, and said
he was a noble fellow, and “lust as good as
gold,” and that she “never was so proud of
him' in all her life,” and fell to kissing him
and crying and taking on. I never saw ma
act so foolish 1n, all her’ life, maps said she '
was “making 1m ’to him over again.”
Well now the story is about over. Ma
came down toIthe store to help. At first she
looked kinder sheepish, especially when some
lady came in she had known at the Lick housch
but she soon got over all that and began to
make bonnet s, and we had a millinery store,
and then she insisted upon saving the expense
of a separate house, and wemoved to a larger
store next door, with nice roolns fixed to live
in and 11 nice show window for bonncts; and
little Maudie is beginning to be handy about.
and all of us work, and we are just as happy
as the days are long, and have lots of money.
I. have never seen Mr. Fined but once since
when I went down to the bank unbeknown
to' pa, and told Mr. Fiend and Mr. McLane
that any time they wanted to borrow $1,000,
“Jones &. 00.,” Would land it to them; and
theylaughed and said: “Couldn’t tell—stocks
might go down. ” And then Mr. Flood said:
"If all the people he had given and leaned
money to would pay it back as I had he
didn’t think he would get busted in a long
time.”
And then I saw the clerk that laughed at
me, and I smiled at him and bowed; and
since then he has been buying all his gloves
at the store. I told him I thought he used a
great many pairs of gloves, and he said they
wore out very fast, counting money. He is
dreadful particular about his gloves, and if
there is nobody in the store but me, he is
sometimes half an hour picking out just IthIeII
kind he wants.

Freaks of‘ Electricity at Newark.
When the colored janitor of the Central
Methodist Episcopal Church. at Newark,
attempted to open the gate of the iron fence
In front of that building at 7 o’clock last‘
evening, he felt a severe shock. Two sub-
sequent attempts to enter met with a like
result. He informed the choir, who were
practising in the church, and they sought an
explanation of the mystery. .They found
that the whole iron fence was strongly
magnetized, and that when the gate was
partly'opened there was a blue flame. like

- “When is your ma coming. back!" asked
the grocery man of the bad boy, as he. found
him standing on the sidewalk when the gro-
cery was opened one morning taking some
pieces of brick out of his coatiail pockets.
“0h, she‘got back at midnight last night,”
said the boy, as he ate a few blueberries out
ofa case. “That 's what makes me up so
early. Pa has been kicking at these pieces
of brick with his bare feet, and when I came
away he had his toes in his hand,- nnd was
trying to go back up—stairs on one foot. Pa
ha’n’t got no sense.” - '
“I am afraid you are a terror,” said the
grocery man, as he looked at the innocent
face of the boy.
your parents some trouble, and it is a wonder
to me they don’t' send you to the reform
school. What deviltry were you up to last
night to get kicked this morning ?"
“No deviltry, just a little fun. You Rel,
ma went to Chicago to stay a week, and 'she
got tired, and telegraphed she would be
home last night, and 'pa ,was down town,
and I forgot to give him the despatch, and,
after he went to bed, meland a chum of mine
thought we’d have a 4th of July. You see
my chug has got a sister about as big as ma,
and we booked some of her clothes,. and
after pa got to snoring we put them in pa’s
room, Oh, you ’d ’a’ lulled. We put a pair
ofnumber one slippers with‘blue stockings
down in front ofthe rockin-chair beside pa’s
boots, and a red corset on a chair, and my
chum's sister's best black silk dress on In
other chair, and chat with a whitefeather-
on the bureau, and some frizzes on the gas
bracket, and everything we could find that
belonged to a girl in my chum’s sister’s
room. 011, we got a red parasol, too, and
left it right in the middle of the floor.
Well, when I looked at the lay-out, and
heard pa snoring, I thought _I should die.
Yousee, ma knows pa is a darn good teller,
but she is easily excited. My. chum slept
with we last night, and when we heard the
door-bell ring I stuffed the pillow in my
month. There was nobody to meet 1111: at
the depot, and she hired a hack and came
right up. Nobody heard the hell but me,
and 111110 to go down and let n:_a in. She was
pretty hot, new you bet, at not being met at
the depot.
"Where’ s your father ?' she asked as she
began to go up stairs. _
“I told her I guessed pa had gone to sleep
by this time, but I heard a great deal bf
noise in the room an hour ago, and may be
he was taking a bath. , Then I slipped up-
stairs, and looked over the banisters. Ma
said something about heavens and earth, and
where is the huzzy, and a is: of things I
couldn’t hear, and pa said dam-fine, and it ’5
no such thing, and .then the door slammed,
and they talked for two hours. I s’pose
they finally laid it to me, as they always .do,
’cause pa called me very early‘ this morning,
and whenI went 'down stairs he came out
in the hall, and his face was redder’n a beet,
and he tried to stab me with his big toe-nail,
and if it han’t been for these pieces of brick
he would have hurt my feelings. I see they
had my chum’ s sister’s clothes all pinned up
in a newspaper, and space when I go back I
shall have to carry them home, and then
she’ll be down on me. I’ll tell you what I’ve
a good notion to take some shoemaker' s wax
and stick my chum on my back, and travel
with a circus as a double-headed boy from
Borneo. A fellOw could havefmore fun, and
not get killed all the time." _
And the boy sampled some strawberries in
a case in front of the. store, and went down
the street whistling for his chum who was
looking out of an alley to see that the coast
was 'clear. ——Ballou_.

The Southern States are now rearing a
large number of young men before whom
the outlook is bright. Some of them are
sons of the old ruling families, but many of
them havesprung from the lower and mid-
dle classes. They enjoy the. advantage of
poverty; they bake no money to spend in
to retrieve or to gain; they have grown up
since the war, and have inherited less than

s1gu or react with which he said it indicates
the feeling of many of these young men.
They keep no grudges'and have no wish to
fight the war over again. The sentiment of
patriotism is getting a deep root in their na-

Yet they are full of faith in the future of
their own section. Well they may be.

The bar-tender put in several bad-tasting
things, and gave the glass to the young man,
who swallowed it, and asked for Limburgor

then got him a piece of an old overshoe to

after he had become calm he told the barten-

ALSO HOW THE YOUNG VANDERIBILTI BEAT THE
RECORD.
Up in the White_ Mountains. 0 week or
two ago, I heard of the latest achievement
of the Vanderbilts. A party ’of the third .
generation of this interesting family (reckon-
ing from the Commodore) was stopping at
the Glen house. Thc=5psrty included two
daughters and two sens-tinda'w’ 'ofithe reigu- *-
ing Vanderbilt, and a cousin -o€-tw0. From
the Glen iiouse the carriage road ascends in
seven miles to the summitof Mt. washing-
ten.
steep, but it is steady and steep enough to
make fairly hard pullibg for the six-horse
teamS.
One day it occurred to‘ the Vanderbilt
party that noblesse obliged them to go up
the mountain in quicker time than had ever
been accomplished before this advent. They
sent for Milliken. That affable person ap-
peared, his tail hat on the back 01: his head,
and heard the Vilnderbilt comnds.
.“I can give you In speciallconveyance,"
said Millikan; “but I don’t kn'nnbout cut-
ting mueh'under three hours. "7 It’sI an awful
hard pull. ”
“But it m'ustbc done, " said one of that
101.11.141.11. The other son-inalcw took Milk
iken aside and warmly assured him that
money was no consideration.- 1. ” '
"Most people," persisted the eloquent pro-
prietor of the Glen,,“find thou hm .

' reveal themselves at every turn, the mgnim

and gloomy Gulf of Mexicoi with Clay on

symmetrical park, and finally. Madison. In
the distance the winding and: lovely Andro-
scoggin, like a thread of .1155, to say noth-

"No matter about all that)": held-7 the Iona 7'
in—law. “We want your best team and y‘Our
best driver” and if the 11.11an by any’hu-i
man possibility be done in two hours and a
half; we want to do it.
“That would be a very quick assent," said
Millikan, cautiously. “Nevertheless, we’ll
see what can be done. ” i» 7
The result of the protracted negotiations
was that Milliken gave the Vanderbilt party
his lightest mountain wagon; beating twelve,
his six famous greys, the best team in the
Glen “house stables, and J ehlel Cooper to ban-
dle the leathers. J ehlel has been driving on
the mountain since 1861'. ' <
They started in the morning, just before
the regular stage,-amid great excitement ‘01:
the Glen house piazzas. Everybody had hiss
watch 10 handwhen J ehiel cracked the whip
over the ears of the off leader, and 1111.01:
everybody Was provided with field glasses
or telescope to watch the- progress of the ve-,
hiclc after it should have emerged from the
wooded belt on the mountain side. “We
shall do it 1” shouted one of the sons-in-law
to Millikan. Milliken removed his hat and
merely remarked, “two hours and a half is
mighty quick time. "
-,“Now " said the sons-in-law to the driver,
as the stage whirled past the toll-house, “do
you suppose we shall do it ?”- '
“Mebbe,” replied J ehiel with a yank at the
jaw of one of tho‘pole heroes, who showed a
disposition to caper. “The horses is in'good
fix and the road is in good fix."
, “Make it in two hours and a. half, " return-
ed the sonsnnunw, "and-h will be, _t_,ho_ _Ip_ost_
day’s work you ever did. ”
The driver grinned and piled his lash.
At'the Half-way house all the watches were
out. Jehiel pulled up to water the team in
just one hour and thirteen minutes from the
Glen. The excitement of the party increased.
“An extra twanty dollar bill if we fetch it '
in 2:20?“ shouted. the son-in-lsw on the
backseat. “Anda dollar extra for every
minute under 2:201” added the other can in-
law.
The stage spun up the mountain at a trei
mendous. rate, verily whizzing around the
sharp turns of the zigzag with a velocity that
, almost projected thcxepresentstlves of $200-
000,000 into the Gulf of Mexico.- .' The pro-
gress of the party was now plainly visible to
the interested spectators at the Glen house
below. There was also suspense and excite-
ment among thejguests at the Summit, for
Milliken had telegraphed up that the Von-
derbllts were engaged in beatingthe record.
The six gray horses drew up panting and
steaming at the platform. The sons-iu-law
sprang cut and shook hands with each other
and with the drive.
of them said two hours and four minutes,
while the watch of the other made it 2.02.
It was agreed to split the difierence and fix
the record at 2.03
For. nearly an hour the operator at the
Summit house was kept busy sending en-
thusiastic messages from the Vsnderbilts to
their friends' in the world bclow. The fam-
congratulatory replies began to pour in over
the wire. The next morning every newspa. .
per in New England contained the names of
the Vanderbilts composing the party, and the
fact that they .had been driven up the moun-
tain in the shortest time ever made on th e
carriage road.
Some days afterward I was discussing the
achievement with anotherold mountain dri-
ver. “I hear J ehie’l’s going toretire from the
business." he remarked with a broad grin.
“He’s made his pile. Jehlel’s a sly one.” ‘.
“What down mean f" I asked.
“I mean,” said he, chuckling, “that when
folks come along that are willing to pay
greenbdcks to see homespun up hill at a four
mile gait: Jehiet’s generally ready to accom--
modate ’em. ”
“And you don't consider two hours and f
three minutes the fastest on record ?”
Here he indulged in an explosion of pro-
fane mirth. “Record 1" said he. “Nobody
said anything about the record except
themselVes. They were bound to have it so,
and who was going to contradict a Vander-
hilt: '7
“And what is tho fastest time P"
"Well, " said the old driver, “I druv those
some six grays to the Smmit week before last

SCIENTIFIC MJSCELLANY.
Dr. Mittendorf states that Aincricsn stu-
dents are less afflicted with near sightedne-
than German students. The affection‘ is do-
velopedby sedentary occupations and lack of
exercise, women being therefore more liable
to contract it than men. It usually appears
year. Weak glasses of slight tint should be
worn early to stay its progress, as blindness
often follows neglect of treatment. In his
paper. on this subject Dr. M. tells of a fine
horse in Berlin which became intractable
and was found to be suffering ‘from near-
sightedncss, but was as docile as ever after a
pair of glasses had been fitted lto 11's“ eyes.
The existence of a prob sile tree in
certain islands of the Pacific rs reported by
Lieut'. Houghton. The branches of ththree
send out long slender tendrils, which touch
the ground without taking root 'and twine
about any objects within reach. These
tendrils contract affect: time so that they (1'0"
not touch the ground, and in this way they
often lift objects of considerable weight
around, which they 'ave become-coiled.
The tree seems tobe allied to the banyan,
which sends slender fibres from its branches
downrto the ground . where? they'eventually
become rooted and form: new stems, which
have the same function; a single tree tbns
branches--
The opinion- or"; 'an eminent anal; st is
quoted to show thafrpotutoes produce symp.

suspect, especially among people where diet
is chiefly these vegetables. The tubers often
contain much solanine.
.Eflorts are still being made to' prove]
connection between the appearance of~the
sun’s surface and terrestrial ‘iphenoman.
That sun-kpots are in ms- way associated
with the earth’s magnetic condition seems:
to be quite well establishedmnt’. it has‘not

- been so. certainly shown: that the causes
which produce: the spots and magnetic va--
' rlations have an influence upon the meteorol-~
ogy of our' globe. This. theory is still it bone
of contention. As abit Ofevidenee bearing
upon the subject, Prof. . Balfour Stewart
. cites certain inquiries into the heights of the
rivers Elbe and Selnein Europe and Nile in
Africa which . indicate.- that these great
streams reach their greatest height at a time
closly corresponding to the maximum of
the eleven.year sun spot cycle, and their
lowest point at the minimum of the same
period. The rainfall in these river-valleys
must, therefore, be greatest when the disturb-
ances on the sun are most extended and via-
lent, and rise verso. '
In the report of a' committee of the Brit-
ish Association it was stated that the maxi- .
mum pressure of the wind on small plane
surfaces had been ascertained to exceed
eighty and even ninety pounds to the square
The pressure over any large area was
considered a matter of much uncertainty,
but it was possible that the maximum pres-
sure of fifty~six pounds allowed by the Board
ofITrade migh t lake effect over the whole of
very exposed structures.

ZTo~ obviate the great risk to which
aeronauts in war balloons are exposed,Mr.
A. Cooper Key has suggested a method of
securing the desired observations by photo-
graphing the enemy’s position from small
captive balloons carrying the necessary catn-
eras, whichmay be operated from the earth
by electrical means.

IDr. Hanamann has pointed out that the
practice of removing leaves and twigs from
wood-covered land is a pernicious one, as it
deprives the soil of the nutriment which the
decay of the vegetable matter would have re-
turned to it and also“ impairs the soil’s power
.of retaining moisture}
Experiments upon over four hundred
individuals of all classes, ages and occupa-
tions show how great is the diversity of-
opinion as to the size of objects seen through
the microscope. The object used in the
experiments was a common louse magnified
toatheorctical size of-4.66 inches. The
majority of observers underestimated this
value; two estimates were only one inch,
seven were over a foot, and one was at least-
five feet. New students of the microscope
usually receive an impression somewhat lar-
ger; than the real value, and adhere to it for
a considerable time.
It is asserteI d on meinent medical authority

Railroad superintendents out west are no
longer bothered by the man with the patent
car-Coupler. They put a new idea 1n practice
about a year ago, and it has w01lzed excel-
lent] well. When a a stranger entered the
0111 with his patent under his arm the su-
perintendent sized him at a' glance, and re-
marked:
‘- Patent ear-coupler, eh ? go right down
lntothe yard and tell the foreman to furnish
you two cars to give it a trial."I
“Thanks—ah—thanks—I—"
“Oh, no thanks. Leave your name and
residence, and state whether you want the
body packed' 1n ice or shipped dry. ” '
“The body 1”
“Certainly. We’ ve had eighteen killed in
the last month, and we like to keep a record
and ship the bodies off by the first train.
Please deposit $25 to cover the cost of aplain
cofiin and the undertaker’s bill. ” '
“I—I-‘—I guess—I'.’ ‘
“And telegraph your wife to have the body
met at the depot about next Monday noon.
Right down this way sir—foreman' 15 down
behind the freight sheds.”
'And the man with the car coupler skips
lightly down stairs to be heard no more.

' When Marie Sass was playing Queen Seiikn
in “L’Afrieaiue,” in Paris, she was living at
Enghien, and one night, when numerous
encore‘s bad prolonged the performance until
missing the lust train out. Sap not taking
time to change her dress, she wrapped her-
self in a large cloak and hastened to the
statien just in time to catch the train. She
fell into: doze in a corner of the compart-
ment, but was ,soon aroused by a horrified
shriek from her solitary fellow-traveller. Her
cloak had slipped off, and he, suddenly
noticing Der barbaric attire, was scared
nearly out of his wits. With a cry .of terror
he pulled the bell’ropc furiously, stopped
the train, and insisted on the guard giving
him some other compartment than that .00~
copied by “that wild woman.” Marie Sass
explained 1111: mama to the guard, and he
told the passengers in the other cairieges,
and all agreed that the joke was good enough
to excuse the delay in their journey.
