History Of Steam.

About $50 years. B. C. Hcro, of Alex
andria, formed toy which exhibited some
of tho powers of steam, and was put in mo-
ton by it.
A. d. $40, Athenius, architect, arranged
several cauldrons of water, each covered
with tho wide bottom of lcathern tube,
which rose to narrow top, with pipes ex-
tending to the raftors of an adjoining build
ing. A fire was kindled beneath the caul.
drohs, and the house was shaken by the
efforts of tho steam ascending the tubes.
In l543. Juno l7th, Blasco dc Garay tried
a steamboat OF 309 tons, with tclerablc sue.
cess, dt Barcelona, Spain. 1t consisted ot a
cauldron of boiling water. and moveabo
wheel on each side of tho ship, 1t was laid
aside rs impracticabe handsome pre-
sent, however, vns mado to Garay.
Tho first idea of "a steam engine in Eng
lnnd was in tho Marquis of Woiccstcrs
|" History of Inventions" published in 1893.
In 1898 patents were granted to Savory,
for the first application of the steam engine,
In 1908 Newcomer, Cawley. and Savory
made the first steatn engine in England.
In 1886 Jonathan Huls set forth tho idea
Of steam navigation.
In 1856 James Watt madc the first per.
feet steam engine in England.
In 1878 Thomas Paine first proposed this
application in America.
In 1871 tho Marquis Juffroy constructed
! u steamboat on tho Seine.
! In 1889 WIN. Symiugton made voyage

| In 1902 this experiment was repeated.
In 1892 Rumsoy propelled boat b.
stoam at Now York.
Inl7S7 John Fitch, of Philadelphia, navi
gated u boat by steam engine on the Del
aware River
In 1893 Robert Fulton first began to turn
his attention TO steam.

A book was publshod in Loipsic in 1897
which described rotary steam engine th

In 1918 Solomon do Caus, French en-
ginccr, published a work describing tn
power of steam to force water, but not b
an engine.
Tho claims of Basco do Garay arc no

Fat Young Ladies and Vinegar.

Taken in moderation, says Blackwood
Magazine, there is no doubt that vinegar is
beneficial, but, in excess, 1t impairs tho dl-
gcstlve organs. Experiments on artificial
digestion show that it the quantity OF acid
bo diminished, digestion is retarded; IT in
creased beyond u certain point, digestion is
arrested. There is reason, therefore, IN the
vulgar notion, unhappiy too fondIy relied
on, that vinegar helps TO keep down any
alarming adiposity, and that ladies who
dread tho Disappearance OF thcir graceful
outline in curves of plumpness expanding
into fat, may arrest SO dreadful result by
liberal potatiuns of vinegar, but they can
only so arrest it ut tho far moro dreadful
expense of their health.
The amount o. acid which will kocp them
thin, will destroy their digestive powers
Portal gives case which should bo warn
ing. "A few years ago, young lady II
| good circumstances, enjoyed good health
sho was very plump, had good appetite
and complexion blooming with roses an(
, lllos Sho began to look upon her plump
moss with suspicion for ner mother WA
very fat. and she was afraid of becoming lik'
| her. Accordingly, she consulted woman
who advised her to drink glass of vinega
daily. The young lady followed her advice
N
and her plumpness diminished. She wa
delighted with the success of the experiment
and continued il for more than month.
She began to have a cough, but it was dr.,
at its commencement and was considered a;
slight cold which would go off. Meantime
from dry il hrcame moist, slow fever CANT
on, and difficulty of breathing; her body
became loan aud wasted away; night sweat
swelling OF tho feet and legs succeeded. nnt
| diurrhoea terminated her life" Therefore
young ladies, DO boldly fat! Never pine to
graceful simness or romantic pallor but
nature means you to be ruddy and roun
accept it with laughing grace, which wi
captivato moro hearts than all the palene:
Of circulating library. At any rate, III
dorstand this that if vinegar will diminS
fat, it can only do so by affecting you
health.

Was William Tell a Myth ?

The historic doubts thrown over the ex-
istence OF many heroes whom the world
has FOR centuries conientedly worshipped,
have been for some time gradually exlin-
gushing the liberator Of Switzerland. -
An article in the January number Of the
Dublin University Magazine, goes into
the question in detail, evidently with great
care, and, let us regrettingly add, to the
annihilation Of The Tell, ii not Tell alto
gelhcr The writer doubts the existence
Of the hero, although he admits that such
man as Tel did exist. In conclusion,
however, some Justice is done TO the ideal
Tell, thus let us add that, whatever
uncertainty on the subject of the deeds
and character of Wilhcln Tell, the ideal
and the sentiment that invested him with
so much hercj m, are the vital, lofty, i'm
mortal spirit that anmates a whole people,
and has brought them glorious and tri-
umphanl through all the vicissiIudes Of
/ time. Such n spirit has never ceased to
breathe in the mountains and valleys Of
Switzerland it has inspired other Swiss
heroes, as in the Appcnzel, for instance,
in the fifteenth century it kindled the
genius Of Schiller, whose masterpiece,
Wilhelm Tell, was the song Of the Ger
manic Swan, expressing the purest aspi-
/, rations, and the sentiments, which ernoblcd
his soul 1t inspired Ros>ni with the
Alpine sublimi'ies, expressed marvelousIy
i in his magnificent opera. And it is i'm
, possible to contemplate, without emotion,
the robler vibrations Of he human soul,
created by that Divine Spirit, whenever
ScbIler's Wilhelm Tell is performed in
that blessed land, or whenever an assem-
bly, of Swiss patriots or legislators is in
augurated by Eossni's overture TO his
Tell, and its members proclaiming enthu-
siastically that their sentiments and history
are embodied in that splendid harmony /;
; thus the human soul lives in arts. But as
the love OF liberty is nothing more than
transient etiervescence, when devoid of
the religious sentiments, the confederation
of The Swiss bearts is immortal, because
the people of Switzerland, from their in
dustrous ciles-lrUm their wooded and
snowy mountains - from their grassy val
Ilevs-from the shades Of the plain, ever
contemplate, on the old soil OF Helvetia,
the Gecp vault Of heaven, above the. social
. sphere, and Him, the universal beneiactor,
Creator Of all.

Newspapers on the Lake Shore.

The Eric Gd=s!te has revived the mono
lies of some OF tho first papers established
on the Southern shore OF Lake Erie. 1t
says -
The first newspaper was started in Erie
in 1907, by Mr.. Wyoth, and called Mirror.
Unlike mombers of tho honorable fraternity
generally, Wyeth subjected himself to II
charge of larceny, discontinued AZ the end
of two years, aud removed to Virginia
Tho second newspaper, called the North.
erH Sentinel, was started by Robert |. Curtis
in 1872, who published it Tor the space OF
three years and abandoned it.
A paper called the Patriot was commence
ed here in 1918 by Ztba WIles. 1t was pub
liShcd about one year, aud tho materials
then removed to Cleveland, and made the
basis OF that well known and highly pros
porous newspaper, the Cleveland Herald.
The Gazette was first issued in January.
1920, by the.prcscnt senior proprietor, and
its publication continued unntorruptedly
up to the present time-comprsing a peri
cd of thiIty-uine years.
To these "reminiscences tho Painesyili,

in Michigan and having missed the stage,
were compelled to take private convey.
ance from the town OF Scuderi to Thomas
town. The lady had with her a beautiful
little lap dog, which she carried on hor lap
on an embroidered mat. During the ride,
tho husband discovered that no had no
handkerchief, when the lady cent him hers,
which was tashonabIy scented with musk.
About half way between the two towns,
tho carriage broke down, in tho midst of a
hard rain, and they were Obliged to take
refuge in tho halfway house-a 'one-horse"
log tavern, consisting of two rooms-a bar
room and lodging room. The lady laid
her lap dog on the mat before the fire, and
herself and husband took seats. In short
time, the gentleman had occasion to use his
handkerchief, and took il out, leaving it
living on his knee when no had done with it.,
In few moments, the landlord opened the
door nut his head in, looked around, went
out. came in, gazed at the dng-his notrils
all the while upturned in intense disgust
He finally appeared satisfied, won't to the
outside door, came back with bound, seized
the lap dog by tho tai, and hurled him
bowling through tho open door, tull ten
rods into the forest. The wife tainted the
husband roso to his feet, terribly enraged
and wanted to know what ne did that for -
That's my dog continued he, turious!y
Don't care a cuss whose dog it is said the
man, gruflly; Il amt going to have nc

tho house instantly, and proceeded on their

THE SECRET OF BEAUTY.-The editor of

Tayl description of the unusual beauty
OF Polish women. dlscloses the secret of their
good looks as follows:
These girls do not jump from infancy to
ladyhooG. They are not sent from tho era
die directly to the parlor, to dress, sit still
and look pretty. No, they are treated as
children should be. During childhood,
which extends through period of several
years, they arc plainly and loosely dressed,
and allowed to run, romp aud play in the
open air. They tako in sunshine as dc
the fowers-they are not loaded down
girded about, and oppressed every way b!
countless frills and superabundant nounces
so as to bo admired for their much clothing
Nor nre they rendered delicate and dyspep

a hundred villages and cities. ard many
thousand cultivated farms,and bearing on its
bosom more than half a thousand steam

stretches away and away some 1900 miles

THE LIGHT AT HOME.

The light a: home how bright it beams
When evening shades around US fall;
And from the lattice far it CLEANS
To love, and rest, and comfort all.
When wearied with the tolls OF day,
Aud strife for glory, gold or fame,
How sweet TO seek the quiet way,
Where loving lips will lisp our namo.
When through the dark and stormy night
The wuyward wanderer homewnrd hies,
How cheering is the twinkling light,
Which through the forest oom he spies
Il is the light Of home he feels
That loving hearts will greet him there,
Aud softly through his bosom steals
The Joy and love that Danish care.
The light Of home how still and sweet
1t peeps from yonder cottage door
The weary laborer to greet
When the rough tolls Of day are DER
Sad is the soul that does not kuow
The blessings that its beams impari,
The cheerful hopes and joys that flow,
And tighten up the heaviest heart.
