A CALIroENIA PH1LosoPHEK.-" FRANK
Stewart, of San Jose, CAL, is still predicting
earthquakes. For several years lie kept Il

in the intervals of mixing gin toddlcs and
Santa Cruz punches he instructed himself
in the abstruse science OF calthQuakes-li

vented q machine for determining the dlrcc-
ton of earthquake shocks. 1t was simply
a lead pencil fastened in such manner
with its point against II sheet of white pa
per that it would make il mark up and
down, across. or Zig-Zag, when the house
was shaken by an earthquake; and So,
whenever Stewart was shaken ont of his
boots or his bed, he did net rush for
the streets, as other citizens did, but
rushed to see what the earthquake had
written him as to what direction ii was tia-
Yelling. and whittier il was probably bound.
The building was n small frame one, and
the hogs got TO scraping themselves against

faithfully recorded by the earthquake ma
chine, and as faithfully reported to the
public BY Stewart, until he found out the
fraud at last-and none too soon for his re-
r,ltation as an earthquake expert. But
Stewart is in earnest, ingenious, and indus
trious man, and he has chung to his investl-

So now that he can swing the formidable
scientific earthquake terms with the ease OF
n bald and venerable college professor. His
Iatest achievement was the promising of
an earthquake on Il particular day, and
the specification of the hour wherein
it would arrive, its exact duration,
and the probable amount OF damage
it would do. Everybody pumped up
a supply of misery and CONSERVATION
for the occasion, and when they were all
ready the earthquake did not come. This
is an excellent lesson for little boys. This
poor man was nothing but IN ignorant bar
keeper at first, but by diligent attention to
watering his whiskey and studying Latin
technicalities and such things he has got 50
that he can tell within Il year or two OF
when there will not be an earthquake. And
he has grown wealthy, too, and some day
when he gets little further along, so that
he can be prompt with his earthquakes, and
not disappoint the people, he will become
great. He is getting up Il prodI9ious earth
quake for November, and VIII spare no
pains OF expense to make it everything the
public can desire. Thus, by industry, en-
terprisc, and close attention to business,
this humble young man has raised himself
to be shining and useful member OF
society. Let us hope-for his sake and the
sake of his widowed mother, who is solely
dependent upon him for support-that his
earthquake will be an awful one this time.

A Mrs. Linton, who has written a ser1es
of essays on woman, in late work pub
lishcd in London says: "Thc old land
marks by which the reflected honor OF
woman was once determined have been
swept away. The days when the mother OF
many sons was blessed above the mother OF
but few have gone SO have those when ola
maidism was scorn and chlldishness a
curse-at least, in England. We feel now
that large family is by no means the per,
sonal or national blessing it used to be, and
that in this overpopulated time. OF ours
those women are the greatest beneiactresscSS
who give fewest citizens to the clogged and
loaded State"
Speaking of the cores in ladies' dresses dresses:
the Norfolk Journal discourseS as follows !:
"The root of the word is generally seen
under the cognate form gar OF ger, winch
signifies, in the northern language, speG1r;L,
thus gar-iish means a spear-fsh gor-llck
means spear-leek; Gar-man, or German
means spear-man, or warrior; ger-faleon
means spear-hawk; the propeelr, name am e Gar lar.
field means Spear-field, &c. The bull cores
his adversary, or spears him."
