A HUMAN SKULL IN soL1D ROCK

A HUMAN SKULL IN soLID ROCK
A very strange discovery, inter-
esting to geologists, is reported by
the Usage Mission (Kansas) journal.
A human skull was recently found
near that place imbedded in solid
rock which was broken open by
blasting. DIR. Weirley, of Usage
Mission, compared it with a modern
skull which he had in his Office, and
found that though it resembled the
latter in general shape, it was an
inch and a quarter in greatest dame
ter, and much better developed in
some other particulars. He says Of
the relic: "It is that of a cranium Of
human species, Of large size, imbed-
ded 10 conglomerate rock of the ter
tiary class, and found several feet
beneath the surface. Parts of the
frontal, parietal and occipital bones
were carried away by explosion. =
The piece Of rock holding the re-
mains weighs some forty or fifty
pounds, with many impressions Of
marine shells, and through it runs .
vein of quartz, or within the Uranium
crystalized organic matter, and by
the aid Of a microscope presents a
beautiful appearance"

CHEER HIM.

At a fire in large city, while the
upper stories Of a lofty dwelling
were wrapped in smoke, and the low
err stories all aglow with flame, a
piercing shrek told the startled fire.
men that there was some one still in
the building in peril. A ladder was
quickly reared, until it touched the
heated walls, and diving through
the flames and smoke brave young
fireman rushed up the rounds on his
errand of mercy. StiAed by the
smoke, he stopped, and seemed
about to descend. The crowd was
in agony, as d life seemed lost, for
every moment of hesitation seemed
an age. While this shivering fear
seized every beholder, voice from
the crowd cried out "Cheer him
cheer him !" and a wild "hurrah"
burst from the excited spectators.
AS the cheer reached the fireman he
started upward through the curling
smoke, and in few moments was
seen coming down the ladder with a
child in his arms. That cheer did
the work. How much can we do
to help the brave ones who are
struggling with temptation, or almost
fainting in their efforts to do good to
others! Don't find fault with your
brother in his trial, but cheer him.
Give him word that shall urge him
on the way, and if you can't help
him in any other way, give him a
hearty cheer.

Now is the time when all should
remember their subscription. A wise
man will see that his money 10 sent
on in season. A good newspaper Is
everything to young family. Far
mers families are necessarily much
secluded from society, and the adj
vantage to be obtained is by inter-
course with other minds. A news
paper, in good measure, supplies
this want. 1t tends TO brighten their

Of new suggestions they would never

POOR GIRLS.

The poorest girls in the world are
those who were never brought up to
work. Rich parents have petted
them, they have been taught to des-
pise labor, and to depend upon others
for a living, and are perfectly help
less. If misfortune comes upon their
friends, as it often does, their case is
helpless. The most forlorn, misera-
bic women on earth belong to this
class. 1t belongs to parents to pro-
tect daughters from this deplorable
condition. They do them great
wrong, if they neglect it. Every
daughter should be taught to earn
her own living. The rich AS well as
the poor require this training. The
wheel Of fortune rolls swiftly round,
the rich are very likely to become
poor and the poor rich. Skilled to
labor is no disadvantage to the rich,
and is indispensable to the poor
Well-to-do parents must educate
their daughters to work no reform
is more imperative than this.

JOURNALISM AS A BUSINESS,

In commenting upon the failure
of a newspaper manager, the st.
Louis Globe tells a plain truth in the
following words Tho business of
iour nalism will continue to be an in !,
viting field for experiments to those
who have large amount of egotism
A man, who having edited news
paper until he was forty, should
suddenly announce himself q lawyer,
would be regarded as a fool by the
legal profession ; and yet we often
hear of lawyers Of forty making sud-
den pretensions journalism.
There is an idea that the business
of editing requires no apprentice
ship; that editors come forth from
law offices and colleges fully armed
for the profession, like Pallas from
the brow of Jove. 1t is mistake !;
there is not in America to-day a
single journalist Of national reputa-
ton who has not devoted more time
and more hard work to his profess
sion than, with equal fitness and APP
plication, would have made him
great lawyer or a good doctor.
And yet ninety out of every hun
dred men you meet on the street will
hesitate about carrying a bod or
making pair of shoes, whereas
there will probably not be one in
in the hundred who can't, according
to his own judgment, edit any news
Taper in the country better than it
is edited, no matter in what manner
or by whom.

FRESH LIPS Fur LOVERS, KISSES.


But the kiss of all kisses is the eli,
matte one--the lovers one--the first
touch Of lips together that are hence
forward to be all in all to each other.
And for this kiss who would not ask
for fresh lips Z Who cares for lips
that have heen common to lovers be-
fore always meant to be the first
conner in woman's heart. Fresh
lips or none for me. IT'S a sigh
from a mans heart, more pitiful in
that he is strong and not young. In
his pure heart and life, one day, a
pair of wistful blue eyes, two rosy
lips and girlish voice crept in, but
only crept in to make for themselves
grave in the before unbroken
ground, where nesting down in it's
depths they were left undistarbed.
1t is the old story. Other lips press
ed hers after, AS they had before, his
turn, end still another had the better
right to weep over her cofhn---but
she, in that hour past, had crept in
and buried herself in one mans heart
forever. How many lives we know
not of are lowering over an open
grave, into which has nestled some
thing we loved the best
Common sense dictates that we
must rot expect too much Of mortal
man or woman. We are all tainted
with the original sin, and total de-
pravity has been a catching disease
for some time. / doubt not that,
though the number may be small,
there are more fresh girls lips to be
kissed to-day than fresh manly lips
to kiss them. What man has right
to demand more than he can givel
Alas /! but the girls do not echo
the cry They know there is little
use to expect fresh lips, and, wise 10
their generation, cease to ask for
them. They take the good the gods
offer them and ask not who has had
them before. Thank God there are
men who can ask for fresh lips. =
May blessings rest on the pure, rosy
ones that shall be lifted up to meet
theirs in the old fashioned bctrothal
kiss.--Jean Gold.

WOMAN.

Place her among the flowers, f,s-
ter her as tender plant, and she is
a thing Of fancy, waywardness and
folly--annoyed by dew-drop, fret
ted by the touch of butterify's
wing, ready to faint A. the sound Of
a beetle or the rafting OF a window
pane at night, and she is overpow-
cred by the perfume Of rosebud.
But let real calamity come, rouse
her affections, enkindle the 6res Of
her heart, and mark her then how
her heart strengthens itself--how
strong is her heart. Place her IN the
heat Of the battle--give her . child,
a bird, anything to protect and see
her 10 q relative instance, lifting
her white arms as shield, as her
own blood crimsons her npturned
forehead, praying for life to protect
the helpless. Transplant her IN the
dark places Of earth, call forth the
energies to action, and her breath
becomes healing, her presence
blessing. She disputes inch BY
inch the stride OF stalking psstilence,
when man, the strong and brave,
pale and affrighted, shfinks away.
Misfortune haunts her not she
wears away life of silent endur-.
ance and goes forward with less
timidity than 10 her bridal. IN
prosperity she is bud full Of odors,
waiting but for the Winds Of adversl'y
to scatter them abroad--pnre gold,
