The 99ai1g Arsns,
Boys' Discovery.

Two Providence, r. l., boys had lively
time of it lately with box which they
found in field. 1t had powder in it and
some packages which they supposed were
some kind of fire works They proceeded
to enjoy their discovery. At the first go
off one of the boys found himself hurt and
afire. He ran and jumped into con
venient cistern to put himself out, where
he came near drowning. The other boy
enjoyed the little incident greatly, and
laughed to his hearts content at the plight
of his playmate. The playmate, however,
did not come back, but was helped to his
home by some one who took pity on his
distress The other boy went on with his
fire works and fun alone. He found an old
fruit-can and put some works in it and laid
a train. The thing did not go off to suit
him, and he kicked the can 1t went off
promptly with the kick and knocked the
artiIleriest twenty feet off his pins, and
when he came down he found himself afre
and bleeding. He had enough fun for that
day, and the policeman who took him home
| discovered the fact that the boy had been
| experimenting with nitro glycerine cart
ridges which had been forgotten by some
workmen There were several cartridges
left after the boys had had enough fun.
The incident is in itself valuable dis
coyery. A nitro glycerine cartridge is the
thing to give boy full satisfaction of fire
works. Christmas, New FEARS and Fourth
Of July. There is economy in it, The
boys generally keep up an Intellectual pop

noise out of the most liberal supply of the
Chinese variety, and our gala days cost en-
tirely too much money Common rockets
and fre-crackers are behind the age
Something more decisive of results is de
manded. The Providence experiment has
proved that single nitro glycerine cart
ridge will do boy There would be a
prelude of pleasure in the morning, per
haps, but the boys would soon be satisfied
and the rest of the day could be better
