spring upon his prey till he has meas

distance of ten or twelve PAGES, when he

he says, make it rule never to fire upon
the lion till he lies down at this short
distance, so that they can aim directly at
his head with the most perfect certai nty.
He adds, that if person has the mis-
fortune tomeet alion, his chance ofsafety
is to stand perfectly still, even though the
animal crouches to make the spring; the

Noticing that the smallpox rs prevail
ing in your city, offer through your
columns few suggestions based ON my
own personal experience with the pesti-
lence here last winter, which Will save
many n life II needed. The great fatality
attending smallpox, and in fact any
dreaded disorder, Is that this very dread
causes even the stricken ones nearest
relations to neglect the patient. Ii may
seem bold assertion, but | make II con-
fdently, that, If taken in time and prop
erly nursed, not over five in every one
hundred of the worst smallpox cases
you ever heard of will prove fatal. And
all this without doctor ever seeing them
at all Now for the modus.
l. The patient begins to feel queer,
languid. out of sorts, but cannot tell why.
Shortly the head begins to ache, next a
chillness creeps up the back, next aches,
perhaps excruciating in intensity seizes
the limbs, and the head by this time is
in perfect agony. This is the first oppor-
tunity TO advance against the disorder.

ter in the economy Of nature, and exhib
its one Of those wisc and bountifdl adap.
tons by which the holesystem of things,
animate and inanimate, is fitted and
bound together. All bodies on the sur
face If the earth radiate or throw out
rays Of heat in straight line-every
warmer body TO every colder. and the
entire surface is itself continual y sending
rays upwards through the clear air into
free space. Thus, on the earth's surface
all bodies strive after an equal tempera-
ture (an equilibrium Of heat while the
surface as whole tends generally to
ward a cooler state. But while the sun
shines this cooling will not take place,
Cor the earth then receives in general
more heat than it gives off; and II the
clear sky be shut out by the canopy Of
clouds, these will arrest and again throw
lack portion of the heat and prevent it
from being so speedily dissipatcd. AT
night, then, when the sun ia absent, the
earth will cool the moist; On clear nights,
also, more than when it is cloudy, and
when clouds only partially obscure the
sky, these parts will bethe coolest which
look towards the clearest portions of the
heavens. Now, when the surface cools,
the air in contact with il must cool also,
and like the warmer currents on the
mountain side, must forsake portion Of
the watery vapor it has hitherto retained.
This water, like the floating mist on the
hills, descends in particles almost inf
nitely minute. These particles collect
on every leaAet and suspend themselves
from every blade of grass in drops of
"pearly dew And mark here a beauti-
ful adoption: Different substances are
endowed with the property of radiating
thar heat, and thus becoming cool with
different degrees of rapidity, and those
substances, which, in the air, become
cool first. also attract first and most abun-
dainty the particles Of falling dew. Thus
in the cool of a summers evening the
grass plot is wet while the gravel walk
is dry, and the thirsty pasture and every
green leaf are drinking in the descending
moisture, while the naked land and the
barren highway are still unconscious of
its fall.

IDLEpIOURs RY GRAY BEARD
From the Bowling Green Panta raph.
THE INVENTOR OF RAILROADS.

atfN Ns<sfAVts " eeAhaaasNfsNb7s
Abut threeqnarters Of century ago
there was born in Leeds, England, a
man named Thomas Gray Scarcely
anything is known of his early history.
He was, VIC believe, a poor collier. and
being very ingenious, he conceived the
idea Of facilitating the transportation Of
coal from the Middleton Colliery to
Leeds, distance Of three miles, by
means Of sort of railway Which he cor-
structed of wood. Upon his his cars
moved at the rate Of three and a-half
miles an hour, to the great merrimcnt of
a wie and discriminating public, -who
laughed at the idea OF a railway as some
thing very visionary, and as the mere
suggestion Of laziness. Poor Gray thought
otherwise. Magnificent visions of future
railways, such rs are now stupendous
realities, doomed up before him. and he
began to talk in public of a general sys-
tom of iron railroads. He was, of course,
laughed at, and declared n visionary,
moon-struck fool. But the more Gray
contemplated his little railway, the more
firmly did he believe in the practicable
ty and immense usefulness of his scheme.
He saw in il all that is now realized, and
he resolved, in spite of the ridicule, the
sneers and rebuff that men poured upon
him, to prosecute his undertaking.
He petitioned the British Parliament
and sought interest with all the great
men Of the kingdom but all this had no
effect, except to bring down, wherever
he went, the loud jeers and ridicule Of
all classes. Still he persevered, and at
length engaged the attention of men Of
intelligence and influence, who finally
embraced his views, urged his plans, and
the result is before the world.
Thomas Gray, the inventor Of rail
roads, who no longer ago than 1920. was
laughed at for ever mentioning the idea,
was still living ten years ago, (and as far
we know, still lives,) in Exeter, Eng
land, ia the full realization of his grand
and noble schemes, for which he was de
clared insane only half century ago.
How much the world has been benefited
by his insanity!

THE SUN.

Ofall the bodies Of the sparkling fir
mament, the sun possesses for us tn,
geatest interest. Its size, together with
its influence which it exerts upon cur sys
TEN, by sending fourth its light and
heat, add intenity to our interest in this
vast and fiery orb.
II is the great central attractor of ouI
solar system around which many inferior
worlds move in order and unison. Its
diameter is about $50, 900 miles, which is
ll2 times greater than that OF the earth
and its mass is said to be 1,400, 900
times as great. And if all the rest Of
solar system were united in one body, the
sun would be the greater by fifty times.
With these facts before US, we can have
but little conception Of the vastness Of
this wonderful orb.
BY aid Of the telescope, dark spots
have been discovered upon the suns disc,
which have been a subject of much curl
osity, as well us interest, to the astrono-
mers, who still vary inopinion respecting
the nature of these spots. Some suppose
them to be "tops of mountains on the
suns surface laid bare BY the Quotations
in his luminous atmospheric" such is the
opinion Of Lalande. Prof Wilson, of
Glasgow, also suggests that they may be
"vast excavations in theluminous matter
of the SUM- But the true physical nature
of the phenomena i still rather uncer-
tain. One thing is rather peculiar rela-
tive to these spots, which is this /: They
vary in size and number at different
times.
II is said that from the year 1911 to
1929 the sun was known 10 be clear of
spots, except for few days in December,
1924. Prof. Olmstcd also states that
even a hundred are sometimes visible
but at other times none are to lie seen
whatever. Such was the case between
the year of 1878 and 1854.
Ii is said, too, that the spots have been
known to break into pieces and disappear
in veryshsrt time !; also that they often
break out again in the same place, and
often in places where none were ever seen
before. 1t is stated that they have been
seen with the naked eye, and, according
TO DIR. Dick, such spots must have been
$4,000 miles in diameter.
But very little is known respecting the
physical nature of the sun. When il is
viewed through telescopeit it appears to
bea mass of burning liquid, in state OF
violent ebullition. II was believed by
LaPlace TO be in state Of actual com
bustion, the spots being immense caverns
or craters, caused by the eruptions or ex-
plosions of elastic fluids in the interior,
But this Is not without both doubts and
contradictions.
This, however, is certain, it WAS won
derfully executed by wonderful Execu-
tor. and without it, life, both animal and
vegetable, would be exstinct.

THE MERIDIAN.

Their love had crossed the meridian Of
happiness, and the young couple began
to look upon each other as matter Of
course. A quiet indifference spang up
ON his part, which boded no good to the
coniding child Of nature who had placed
her trust in him-her fate in his keeping.
He no longer sat at her feet or pillowed
his head in her lap at eventide, but sat
apart at eventide gazing into vacancy,
his thoughts far, far away, among the
ranches of siskiyou, or the pleasures of
the City Of the Sea. He longed for a
change and began 10 look upon the pos
sibility of separation from his bride
with feeling akin to satisfaction. The
wife saw all this, but in her innocence
saw nothing to give her alarm. Besides
she already felt something which, when
told her lord, she knew would fill his
very soul with joy, and draw him closer
10 her.
