Don't ScoLD.-For the sake OF
your children, don't do it. 1t is q
great misfortune to have children
reared in the influence Of a scold.
The effect Of the everlasting COM
planning and fault-fnding of such
persons is to make the young who
hear it, unamiable, malicious, cal
lous-hearted, and they often learn to
take pleasure in doing the very
things for which they receive such
tonguc.lashings. AS they are al
ways getting the blame of wrong
doing, whether they deserve it or
not, they think they mightas we'll
do wrong as right. They lose all
am mbltion to strive for the favorable
opinion Of the faultfnder, since they
see they always strive in vain
Thus a scoId is not only nuisance,
but a destroyer of the morals of
children. If these, unloved dread
ed people could only see themselves
as others see them they would fee
TO the mountains in very shame.

WICKED ISGESUIrY.-Onc Of the
subtle methods of catching fish, EN-
ployed for years by poachcrs in
England, is to fill a large stone
bottle with quicklime, then to
pour in water enough to nearly
fill the jar, and cork it up, sccur-
ing the cork to the neck Of the
bottle by copper wire. The bot
tie is thrown into the water, and
the pressure, caused by the work
ing Of the lime, explodes the bot
tie and stuns the fish, which then
float helplessly on the surface of
the water.

a NEW WEAPON.

The New Orleans Picayune
gives the annexed description of
TIC ncatcst instrument for a street
tish; that has yet been produced:
1t is 4 weapon with sinister and
cynical appearance that would
make even the bravest man trem-
bic. 1t consists first of an ordinary
pair Of brass knuckles, rather
sharp, in order to produce telling
effect. To one one end is attach
ed q gimlct knife, to the other a
revolver, whose trigger forms one
Of the divisions of the brass
knucklc. Thus armcda man might
defy an army. If he were to get
hold Of one individual man, the
effect is appalling; every blow he
strikes with the knuckles would
not only break the assaulted per-
sons skull, but lodge a halfdozcn
bullets in his heart, while the GIN
let attachment is cutting away at
his throat. A man who had been
treated to that weapon would be
killed at least dozen times be-
fore he knew what was the mat
ter; not only killed, but so bat
tered, bruised. and cut to pieces,
that i sardine box would prove a
roomy coffin for his remains
Somebody ought to name the
weapon; it deserves a name
1t is small, but telling in it's ef-
fects.

LOSG-VVlNDED TAKERS.

Men are often talked to death.
Il is ! hard death TO die.
Il is often the case that they

rcG-hot mosquitoes and acts as

He never has anything Of i'm
portance to tall, if he had he could
DO it in a minute.
While he is talking to you he is
always looking the other way,
hunting up the next victim. He
will hold You by the button and
talk for three hours and Q quarter;
and when he has got through you
feel as weak as though you had
just come out of a hot bath.
Long-winded takers arc the
very va!nest Of mortals; they
dot never talk to interest you,
but to amuse themselves.
They are as cheerful and as
fighty as a bladder blown up with
the wind.
You can't escape ono Of these
fellows any more than you can an
east wind.
They arc the worst thieves in
the world, they steal time, a thing
that cannot be replaced.

two inch auger and . dozen GIN

winded talher get after me.
They ere worse than a female
committee Of five, to raise mouey

You cannot only get rid Of the
women, but make them all respect
you by subscribing seven dollars,
just about twice what it will cost
TO do the whitewashing.-Bi!iings.

The LENGTHENING YEARS OF
MAN.-1n an interesting paper BY
Dr.. Edward Jarvis, in the fifth an
nual report of the Massachusetts,
board ofhealth, the following vital
statistics, past and present, Of Va,
rious countries, strikingly show
how the advance Of civilization
has prolonged life: In ancient
Rome, in the period of 200 to 500
years after the christian era, the
average duration Of life in the
most favored class was 30 years.
In the present century the a7-
erage longevity Of persons of the
same class is so years. Ia the
sixteenth century the average
longevity in Geneva was 2l.21
years; between 1914 aud 1888 it
was 4O.6o, and as large portion
now live to 70, rs lived to 43, 800
years ago. In 1893 the British
government borrowed money by
selling annuitics on lives from in
fancy upward, on the basis Of the
average longevity. The treasurer
received the price and paid the
annuitics regularly. as long as the
annuitants lived. The contract
was mutually satisfactory and pro-
titablc. Nincty-scven years later,
Mr.. Pitt issued another tontinc or
scale Of annuities, on the basis Of
the same expectation of life as IN
the previous century. These later
aunuitants, however, lived so much
longer than their predecessors:
that it proved to be very costly
loan for the government. 1t was
found that while 10000 Of each sex
in the first tontine died under the
age of % only 5,772, males, and
9.416 females in the second tontinc
died at the same age Of 100 years
later. The average life ofthc annui-
tants Of 1893 was 26.5 years, while
shosc of 1890 lived 33 years and 9
months after they were 30 years
old. From these facts, says DR..
Jarvis, it is plain that life, in many
forms and manifestations, and pro,
babIy in all, can be expended in
vigor: intensity and duration, un'
der favorable circumstances amid
which, and the conditions in
which, any form Of life is placed
should be brought into harmony
with the law appointed for its5e.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE,
'sThe Leading American Newspaper"
FOETSDED BY HORACE GREELEY,

In the recent elections the people have declared
In favor Of honesty in politics and independence
in journ4li lisnl. TAE TRIBUNE, which years ago
declared that it was not and never more ~ouio
be party organ, claims the verdict, as the popo-
lar y;ndication Of its course, and recognizes IN
the result the voice Of the people for reform ana
iuteprity in government, for candor ana lnae-
Dendence among newspapers. During the cam
noipn which has Just closed The TRIBUNE has
fuliy maintained It's right to the title OF the
Leading American Newspaper This position
It hss earned and retained Il Ie following,
among other reasons:
Il publishes all the news, earli-!. more 1uily,
and more intelligently than any other paper.
Il insists on peace throughout the whole coun-
try, the right oflocal selfgovernment, and the
protection of al classes in the exercise Of their
fust and legal rights.
It advocates confidence and good feeling, be-
tween North and South, and laoors for an non
est and abiding reconciliation. -,
It maistains fairness and candor toward all
public men and questions. and dignity and cour>
resy toward associates and RIVALS.
Ii publishes scientific news, reports, discussions
and discoveries to decree Of fullnesS and accE-
rncy never before attained by any paper.
It gives every week ten or more columns OF the
most carefully prepared agricultural matter du-
ring the year, much m >re in the aggregate than
the entire contents Of any other agricultural
publication, and the whole forming department
of which an eminelt agricultural editor SAID
alt has done more to make good farmers than
ary other influence which ever existed
It has published series Of scientific and liter
ary extras which have met wider sale and more
emphatic popular approval than any similar
