BoYHooD's NEED. OF all earthly un-
dertakings, none pays better than the
brooding over an ungainly boy. What
shall be done with him ? Love him as
none but mother can love. His des-
tiny is in your hands. Bear with him.
Take an interest in his affairs; win and
respect his confidence. Go to his bed
side at night with kiss and blessing,
and whispered prayer. He may pre-
tend slumber, but he will tell his wife of
it with tears in his eyes. years after you
have gone to your reward
When he sees you are less offended
with his boyish rudeness and follies, than
with the slightest want of integrity, that
you are proud of him, content with him,
he will make the mothers great heart of
love resting place. Let the spirit of
adventure take him the world over, he
will never forget whose idol and pride he
was in those days when he was Gin every
ones way, and of no use." If the
mothers of our land must engage in pol
itics, fill the professions, and live in pub
lie, God help the boys from nine to six
teen They are friendless indeed They
have lost the only being capable of steer
ing their bark safely through the quick
sands, rocks and shoals that lie in the
way from boyhood up to virtuous glo-
rious manhood. d.-Adgocate and Guardian.

INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS. - For
some time past series of very interest
ing experiments in the testing of new
quality of cannon powder has been in
progress at Fortress Monroe under the
direction of the chief of the Navy Bu-
reau or Ordnance. The results thus far
attained are fifty per cent. increased
force, greater velocity and diminished
pressure on the walls of the gun. One
of the latest trials was the firing of a
fifteen-inch smooth bore with the same
charge as was fred from a twelve-inch
rife at the turret of the British iron-clad
Glatton. The impact of the smooth
bore projectile was found to be 9O36 tons
to the square inch, while the impact of
the rifle shot on the Glatton's turret was
but 6l0O tons, or nearly fifty per cent.
increase. 1t is certain that had the
charge used against the Glatton been of
the same quality as that fred at Fort
Monroe, the turret would have been COM
pletely disabled. Naval authorities at
Washington regard these results as plae-
ing the United States ahead of other
great nations in the contest between ord
nance and defensive armor.

PAPER.-The term foolscap, to desig-
nate certain kind of paper, no doubt
has puzzled many an inquirer. The or
igin is not only amusing, but historical.
Charles /. of England granted nnmcr-
GUS monopolies for the support of the
government. Among others was the
manufacture of paper. The water mark
of the finest sort was the royal arms of
England. The consumption of this ar.
ticle was great, and large fortunes were
made by those who had purchased the
exclusive right to vend it. This among
other monopolies was set aside by the
parliament that brought Charles |. to
the scaffold; and by way of showing
their contempt for the king, they order
ed the royal arms to be taken from the
paper, and fool with his cap and bells
to be substituted 1t is now over two
hundred years since the fools cap was
taken from the paper, but still the paper
of the size which the Rump Parliament
