Lotteries.

CoDceding for a moment that the pro-
cess of drawing the lots is conducted in
the fairest manner (although there are
modes by which high or low numbers
may be made to predominant in the
drawing, and the managers may to GER
tain extent manoeuvre as they wish), the
chances against any ones drawing high
prize are so enormous that, if the sub
lect was properly understood, we doubt
whether the most reckless gambler would
risk his money on the stake.
Let us take, for instance, the scheme
of one of the Delaware State lotteries.
We find that out of 76, 076 tickets issued.
3O,316 were prizes and IS, 760 were blanks.
The retail price of the tickets was So
each, making in all $228, 22S, and the
amount proposed to be distributed in
prizes was $152, 152-leaving balance
assuming that all the shares were taken
up) in favor of the State of S76,O76. Out
of these 30,316 prises, 25, TAO were of So
each /; so that the winner of one of these
would just take out what he put in or.
In other words, would neither lose mol
win, provided there was no discount
charged upon the payment, and would
have all his trouble and anxiety into the
bargain. The remaining 1916, prizes

Seeing Under Water.

In order to have distinct vision, and
the power for estimating the distance of
one object from another under water,
the magnifyinglens of the eyes of aquat-
tic animals must necessarily be much
more convex than in land animals. A
fish sees in the air, just as we do in
tinctly. Submarine explorers are
provided with glasses which meet the
emergency. Seals, frogs, terrapin, croc-
odiles, and water birds, that seek prey
alternately in air and water, possess a
marvellous mechanical provision for
varying the optic axis in passing from
one medium to another. Human eyes,
having no such adjustable apparatus,
meet an emergency by lens outside in,
wearing glasses. No individual organ
has been more profoundly studied, nor
IS any department of science better I'M
derstood than optics, yet the sense of
vision is not in the eye, but far back in
the brain. The eye is simply a receiv-
ing instrument, like spyglass, directed
by the Will, through which the conscious
soul contemplates what is beyond.
Through those organs the mind holds
intercourse with the world. Yet, with
such facts for guidance, based on posi-
tive demonstrations philosophers have
not been able to explain how the mind
operates on the optic mechanism to see
Insects are abundantly provided with
motionless eyes,-but they see without

centers, and SO have we; but vision has

RABBIT FUR.-A correspondent of the
Pacific Rural Press writes During

WONDERFUL STATEMENTS - Unless

of the organ or organs in which it exists.

Chances agains

And combining these chances, we find
that the probability that any one ticket
will turn up prize is IL to l. If, in the
ordinary course of business, man were
to be well assured that the chances
against his succeeding were IL to l. he
would, if he were sane, employ his time
and his capital in some other manner !:
and the mere fact of there being pos
sibility of success, apart from any
reasonable probability, would not jus
tify his persevering In the speculation.
Let any one take up the scheme of one
of these lotteries, and compute the
chances for and against the drawing of
any particular number, and his enthu-
siasrn will speedily cool down. But if,
IN addition to mere mathematical OBJ
STAG es, be added the frauds perpetrated
by the agents, that man must be very
sanguine one, indeed, who would ven
tnre his money in this way.

A Touching Obituary.

A Pennsylvania editor lost paying
subscriber by death the other day, and
this is the editorial obituary that follows:
death seems to lurk behind every rail-
fence and hay-stack in this vicinity, and
lie in wait for our prominent and choice
citizens. To-day we see it, to-mor-
row we don't. All, who can tell what a
week may bring forth in such blasted
country as this. Death has again turn
ed a fip-fop and come down fat-footed
in our midst, and snatched from amongst
us one of the best advertisers and sub
scribers we ever had. He possessed the
love, confidence and esteem of all who
knew him and some who did not, and,
save slight poker debt to MI. did
not owe cent in the world"

Poisoned to Death.

healthy liver secretes each day about two
and half pounds of bile, which contains a
great amount of waste material taken from the
blood. When the liver becomes torpid or con-
gested, it fails to eliminate this vast amount of
noxlouS substance, which, therefore, remains
to poison the blood and be conveyed to every
part of the system. What must be the condi-
ton of the blood when it is receiving and re-
tanning each day two and half pounds of
poison? Nature tries to work off this poison
