Queer Tom.

Tom FIossofer was the queerest
boy | ever knew. I don't think he
ever cried; | never sew him. IF
Fleda found her tulips all rooted
up by her pet puppy, and cried, as
little girls will, Tom was sure to
come round the corner whistling,
and say:
What makes you cry? Can You
cry tulips ? Do you think every
sob makes a root or a bloss0m?--
Uere, let's try to right them
So he would pick up the poor
flowers, put their roots into the
ground again, whiting all the time,
make the bed look smooth and fresh,
and take Fleda off to hunt hen S
nests in the barn. Neither did he
do any differently in his owa trou-
bles. One day his great kite snap~
ped the string and few away far
out Of sight. Tom stood still for
one moment, and then turned round
to come home, whiStling q merry
tine.
why Tom, said I, aren't you
sorry to lose that kite
Yes, but what's The use?
can't take more than a minute to
feel bad. Sorry won't bring tie
kite back, and | want to make
another,
Just SO when he broke his leg.
Poor Tom, cried Floda, you
cant play any o.o~o>re.'
I'm not poor, either. You cry
for me; | don't have to DO it fol
myself, and | have a splendid time
to white. Besides, when | get
we'll, | shall beat every boy in schoo
on the multiplication table; for say
it over AID over till it makes mt
sleepy, every time my leg aches.

The Age of Coal.

1t seems probable shat vegetable
matter may, under favorable con,
ditions, be converted into coal much
more rapidly than most chemical
geologists are in the habit of as
suming. At leasta curious instance
Of an approach towards such cons
version within the historic period
has been brought before the Gers
man Geological Society by Herr
Hirschwald Of Berlin. In one of
the old mines in the Uppcr HartR-
the Dorothea Mine, near C!austhal
some ofthe wood originally employ
ed as timbcring has become SO far
altered as to assume most Of the
characters Of a true Ignite, or
brown coal. I5appears that ccr-
tain Of the lovels in the ancient
workings Of this mine are filled
with refuse matter, consisting
chiefly of fragments of clay-slate,
more or less saturated with mine
water, and containing here and
there fragments Of the Old timbcr>
ing, This wood when in the mine.
is wet, and Of a Ieathcry consistence,
bu5 on exposcre to the air it rapid
Iy hardcns to q solid substance,
having most, if not all. the charac>
tcristic5 Of a true Ignite. It breaks
with a well marked conchoidaI frac
ture, and the parts which are most
altered present the black lustrous
appearance characteristic Of. the
German pitch Goals. At the
same time chemical examination of
the altered wood shows that it
stand, actu1ll Y nearer to true coal
than do some of the younger terti-
ary lignites. This instance seems,
therefore, to prove that pine wood,
when placed under highly favora-
bic conditions, may be converted
into a genuine Ignite within q
period which, from what We know
Of the history of mining in the
Hartz, cannot have extended be
yond four centuries.

A Lutte Advice to Farmers.

Help your wives in every way
you can trivial though iC may seem
to you. For instance, keep an ex.
ira pair of shoes or slippers in the
bali or entry, and always rcmem-
Der to change your dirty boots be-
fore entering her clean rooms.
Then you may be sure of smile Of
welcome, rs no dirt wnl be left
after you for her to clean up. In
the evening, comb your hair as
carefully as ever you did in your
counting days, put on n clean coat
or dressing gown, and when you
take your paper to read to yourself
and leave her to lonesome thoughts
while sewing Or mending, but re-
member that she too has been
working hard all day, and is still
working. Read to her whatever
interests you, so that her interest
and opinions may grow with yours,
and that she may comprehend
something besides 1--we stories, of
which too many have read more
than they should. You will both
be happier, and being q farmers
or merchants wife will not be
such dreadful tiresome and
lonely life as many girls have every
reason now to think it is.-,Science
Of Health.

Wood's Household Nagazine.
Grand Mountain View in Greece.

DR.. Jchiemann describes in the
Allgemeine Zeitnng, an ascent
made by him of Mount Parnassus.
He saw no snow until he had
gained 5000 feet, and then only in
cIefts oil the mountain. At 9 P. NJ,
af.er repeatedly losing his way, he
arrived at one Of the highest of the
shepherds huts; but the place was
so filthy that he preferred to sleep
IN the open air. This he Did with
comparative comfort, though when
he left Delphi that morning the
ten perature was at 80 Reaumur,
while at his sleeping place the tter>
mometer showed 40 only. At .
a. NJ, they proceeded on mules for
an hour and a half, after which
they had to climb with hands and
feet up the Lykeri, which is the
highest peak of the mountain.
They reached the summit with
much labor at 5 o'clock, Just as the
sun was rising. TO the east they
saw the green fields and meadows
of Beotia, Lake Copais, Attica, the
island Of Eubea, and the Rgean
Sea; to the north the mountain
chains of Othrys and Eta, Pindust,
Olympus, Ossa. Peli0n, and Athos;
to the south the high table table
they had visited on the previous
day, the ravine of Pleistos, in which
Delphi lios hidden, the beautiful
plain of Krysso, the bays of Cirrha
and Anticirrha, and the magnif.
cent mountain range of the Helicon,
the bay Of Corinth, Acroc0rinthos,
the mountain of Achia, descending
precipitously to the sea, the higA
mountains Of Arcadia, and IN the
. back ground the gigantic Taygetos;
to the west the mountains of Los
cria, Etoia, Acarnania, and be-
hind them the Adriatic. DR..
= Schlemann adds that on the mouu>
l tain he found only one kind of plant,
! with small thick leaves, but at the
foot Of the Lykeri there were six
2 different species giving abundant
food to the sheep. Some of the
/ shepherds have 1900 sheep, whlcI,
is equivalent to q property of 30,-
r 600 drachmas, or 1900 thalers
