CHANGES OF A CENTURY.

The nineteenth century has witnessed
many and great discoveries.
In 1SOS Fulton took out the first patent
for the invention of a steamboat.
The first steamboats, which made reg
ular trips across the Atlantic Ocean were
the Sirius and Great Western, in 1880.
The first public application to practice
the use of gas for illuminating was made
in 1902.
Inlsl3 the streets of London were for
the first time lighted with gas.
In 1918 there was built at Waltham.
Mass, a mill believed to have been the
first in the world, which combined all
the requirements for making finished
cloth from raw cotton.
In 1870 there were only twenty-five
post-offices in the whole country, and
up to 1887 the rates of postage were
twenty-five cents for letter sent over
four hundred miles.
In 1907 wooden clocks commenced to
be made by machinery. This ushered
in the era of cheap clocks.
About the year 1888 the first railroad
of any considerable length in this coun-
| try was constructed.
In 1910 the first experiment in photo
graphy was made by Daguerre.
About 1910 the first express business

said to have begun i'm 1870.
| In 1886 the first patent for the inven-
ton of matches was granted.
In 1S45 the first telegram was sent.
Steel pens were introduced for use in
1903.
The first successful reaper was con-
structed i'll 1888.
In 1912 Elias Howe obtained patent

The first successful patent of vucaniz-
ing India rubber was brought out i'm

of abandoning my profession and SUBJ
jecting myself to the caprice of popular
favor or official patronage for support.
In other words, cannot we'll afford to
make the petuniary sacrifice which is
required. 1 made up my mind when
l entered political life never to 60 so far
as to feel for a moment that depended
upon any Office or any popular
favor for liylihoed. That mo-
ment should lose my indepence-I fear
my integrity. He is miserable whose
happiness
''Hangs on Princes favors."
But he is not only wretched but infinite

pend upon the wild caprice of the ever
changing multitude. 1 canDot become

self, but who was meyer an office-seeker
on his own account. says the letter from
which we take the above paragraph,
'tcontains a lesson which might
be usefully learned by those who fall in
to the too common error of seeking or
depending upon political offices, instead
of relying upon some permanent oc-
cupation for a livelihood. Nothing is
more pitiable than to see, as we do, a
generation of young men growing mp
dependent upon temporary and precar-
ious means of support" There is truth
in this.
According to the figures published in
the New York Bulletin only six out OF
seventeen of the principal railroads OF
the country showed an increase of busi-
ness this February over February of las1
year. Four of the six are west of this
State, the other two being the Erie, with
an increase of $79.294, and the Atlantic
and Great Western, with an increase o1
| $10,047.

ENTER MARCH.

A rrayed in dusty, rusty drab,
IA With rusty; dusty beard and hair.
Here comes old March, red as crab
And rugged as bear.
As chisel cold his nose is sharp,
Than fishing hooks his nails are sharper;
Cracked is his voice like frozen harp
Touched by II feshless harper,
Oh, weary are his tickle waysi
To-day benign, tomorrow bitter;
In pleasant mood ne seldom stays,
The testy old hair-splitter.
The only birds his praise that sing
Arc cawing crows and geese that gabble;
To call him the first month OF spring
Is naught but idle babble.
His footsteps ever followed are
By parching drought and dusty breezes,
By watery eyes and dire catarrh,
And stunning coughs and sneezes
Delasive March! speed on, spced on,
Make way for better months a-coming
That blooming flowers will bring anon:
With bees about them humming.

Economies,

Nothing lubricates the wheels Of for
tune so much as taking kindly to fate
and trying to adapt yourself to whatever
position or necessity which appears as
duty. Economy is not an enemy to hap
piness and cheerful homes. All that is
necessary to make the most of that you
have and study up how to save in conf
mon sense and a practical manner, then
economy will not prove an affection.
The gardener who stands idly looking
over the fence to envy his neighbor for
to buy or beg his vegetables when the
season Of gathering comes. If your
ground is not as fertile as You could
wish, OF as somebody else has, work the
harder and make 1t better. Envy and
fretting will dull the best implements of
industry.
There are few homes where economy
is practiced upon the best and most sue
cessful plan. There is no disgrace in
| saving scraps which can be worked up
into something useful. Many rag-bag
| betrays the fact that there is much to
learn before women can boast of know
ing how to economise. Ifyou only have
one or two new dresses a year, fix up
an old one to do house work in, or nine
months out of twelve You will not have
a decent dress to wear. Women have
been known to fiatter themselves with
the idea of possessing great virtue be-
cause they were not drcssy and stuck
up.' They say their clothes all look
alike and people must take them just as
they find them, or not at all. Their
clothes all look alike! In truth they do,
and none of them are fit to be seen
Each dress shows the effects of dish
washing, baking or churning. Trne

dress, and if circumstances do not ad
NIT of better for afternoons or best, it
can at least be fresh. A working dress
does not signify a greasy, tattered and
| torn garment, that causes woman to
run into a closet or down cellar to hide
| if stranger chances to call, but some
| thing that water cannot spoil, and fash
ioned in comfortable shape, SO that the
body is easy and the arms can be raised
above the head without splitting the
sleeves.
Women are not the only novices in
in economy. Men are still greater
bunglers in the science They will
work longer to save five cents in a shop
or ON a farm. and spend more time in
scolding their families for wastefulness
in school books. pencils, shoes and cook
ing, than it would require to earn a dol
lar, with peace of mind and cheerful
ness attending. Then, to display most
finished inconsistency, they will chew
tobacco, smoke, and drink poison and
whiskey, wasting money enough to fur
nish themselves and their homes many
comforts and sensible luxuries.
When a man who chews tobacco and
smokes cigars, sets himself up as an ex-
ample of economy because he has not
had new suit of clothes in two or three
years, ask him to add up what his s'little
vices'' have cost in that length of time.
He will find that his wife and children
need not have staid away from church
on Sunday for lack of clothes to wear
had he used that sum i'm supplying their
wants.-Elm Orlu.

1t was Wild October night, the wind
twirling and rushing up the short drive
that lay between the front door of the

which divided the grounds from the
high road.
Mr.. Ferguson was puzzled over his

Mr.. Ferguson perfectly revelled in
all sorts of parish work; but he was a
man who delighted in good hearty
grumble now and then, and his wife,
understanding such moods well, always
found it an excellent plan to treat them
homepathically
