DON'T DE AFRAID OF Dirt. Old DR..
Cooper, Of South Carolina, used to say
TO his students: Don't be afraid of
dirt, young gentlemen. What is dirt ?
Why, nothing at all offensive, when
chemically viewed. Rub little alkall
upon the dirty grease spot upon your
coat, and it undsrgoss a chemical change
and becomes soap; now rub it with Ilt
tie water and it disappears. 1t is neither
soap, grease, water nor dirt. That is not
very odorous pile of dirt you sec yon
der; we'll, scatter li,tlo gypsum over it
and it is no longer dirty, Everything
like dirt is worthy our notice as studsuts
of chemistry. Analyzs it; it will sepa
rate into very clean elements. Dirt
makes cern, corn makes bread and moat,
and that makes a very sweet young lady
that saw one of you kissing last night.
81 after all you were kissing dirt, partic
ularly if she whitsned her face with chalk
or fullsr's earth though may say that
rubbing such stuff upon the beautiful
skin Of young lady is dirty practice,
Pearl powder think Is made of bismuth,
nothing but dirt. Lord Palmsrston's :
fine definition of dirt is matter in the
wrong place. Put itin The right place
und We cease to think of it as dirt."

SPORT AT THE LAKE.-The boat races. ar
ranged to come off this afternoon on Lake
Quinsigamond, will be confined strictly to
Worcester oarsmcn, and as there is considerable
rivalry among them, the contests will be of a
very exciting character. No official list of en-
tries has teen made up, and it is probable that
they are not fully completed. 1t seems 10 be
definitely understood, however, that John Ker-
ber Jerry Connel, Charles Gates and J. E.
Brown will pull in the single scull race and
possibly others, whose names are not
yet down. The next race will be
either for double SOULS or pair oars as the
parties pulling lmay choose, and will be con-
tested between Council and Kerber, J. j. o Leary
and A. Coburn, and T. Leahy and George NJ.
Woodcock; probably other oarsmen will make
their appearance for this race previous to the
start. The races will close with working
race which will be open to all. Between the
two last races there will be a pair-oared match
between Waldo Merritt and Jerry Conners, and
John Maher and Michael Downey, over three
mile course, for purse $50 The other races
will be over the two mile course. The
prizes will be $50 to the first and S25 TO
the second in the single scull race, and
SIS to first and $40 TO the second in the others.
The first race will be called promptly at half
past two, to be followed an hour later by the
double Scull race. and at four o'clock by the
three mile race. The working boat race will
take place about half-paSt four. If the weather
is pleasant this afternoon there will undoubtedly
be a large crowd in attendance at the races. If
it should be seriously unpleasant the sport will
probably be postponed for day or two.
