"a correspondent sends US the following,
which he thinks good illustration OF the
difference between science and Common
sense
A friend Of ours, now major, ard whom
we will designate by chat title, was, previous
to the war, engaged with party of engineers
in surveying route for proposed railroad
in the State OF Iowa. AT night they were
accustomed to stop at the farm houses where
they Glanced to be. One night, while at one
I of the houses, and just before they were
ready to retire, the host came rushing in much
agitated, and said that his heller had fallen
into the well. 1t seems that they had been
digging well, which was about fifteen feet
down and had covered it over with boards,
and the heifer in walking over had gone
down through. laa
The whole party went out with their
lanterns 10 help get the "critter' out, and, Of
course, the chief engineer, who was scienti-
fc man, took charge of the job. He ordered
a large pole to be brought, by which they
measured the depth of the well, and then he
and his assistant went into the barn to make
calculation as TO how far from the well they
would have to begin TO dig a trench in order
to get a proper inclination, so that the ''crit-
ter" could walk out to the surface. Above
the well was arranged a horizontal windlass,
turned by cranks, which was used to raise the
earth out OF the WILL
As soon as the man OF science had gone
into the barn, the thought struck the practi-
cal Major that they might lie a. rope round
the heifer's neck and hoist her out beforethe
engineer got through with his calculations.
The Major suggested the plan to the old
man, who seemed to be rather taken with
the idea. So, procuring rope, he went down
nto the well according to the Majors direc-
tons, to lie it round the animals neck.
"What kind of a knot shall tie ?' said the
old man. 81
"Any kind yOu please-a slip moose if you
like" replied the Major. We will get her
out before she chokes, any way; only place
the knot under the jaw
So the old man adjusted the rope and came
up, They began TO turn the windass and
the heifsr was very soon brought to the sur
face and swung off on the ground. They
all thought she was dead at first, but trying
4 one leg after another aud finding all right,
she got up and walked of as if nothing had
happened. In few minutes out came the
man of figures with his calculations all COM
piete.
.Get your spades" said he; t'we have got
to begin so many feet from the well to dig the
trench" .-.rrhE ff s,
But a few minutes only had elapsed When
the Whole crowd broke out into a hearty
laugh, and the mystery was made known to
the engineer. tA.iAAA -
"That," said the Major, is what l cali COM
mon sense against science"
The engineer got so angry about the matter
that he did not speak to the Major for several
weeks. CONSTANT READER.
