The Carson Appeal is surprised that
Director General Goshorn announces
that the Centennial will not be open
on Sunday and thinks that it is shame,
and says "Christsndom is not all modelled
upon the ironclad plans and bigotries Of
the Puritans or the inflexibilities of CAL
vanistic rule" OF course it isn't and
nobody wants it to be. Closing the
Centennial on Sunday is simply stroke
Of business policy. When the Carson

In the light Of present events it's prob.
able that the Congress which meets on
the 4th prox. will be one Of the liveliest
and most uproarious of any in the his
tory Of Congressional legislation. Bluff
and buncombe will mark the opening
session, sober sense and better judgment
come like creation out of chaos in the
early Spring Of the Centennial year. In
relation to party leadership there is just
now little difference. they are nearly all
tainted and smell sour; with few ex-
ceptions they are men regardless Or tue
country's good, the demands of the time,
the requirements of their position or in
deed anything but private gain and the
perquistes of patronage.

and spirit in her way of doing it. That

Of the Centennial. Massachusetts, comes

An AnecdOte of Jules JanIu.

were very low just then. Suddenly an
idea struck him. .You have q dozen

you told me the other day; let me have
that, and will give you an acouittance
for the so francs" impossible: the
porter will not let it pass out" 1 will
take my chance of that if you will agree
to my proposition" The debtor did
agree, and the receipt was signed. An

Lime Water fer Burns.

A correspondent writes that the readi-
est and most useful remedy for scalds
and burns is on embrocation of lime
water and inseed Oil. These simple
agents combined form thick, cream
like substance, which effectually ex-
cludes the air from the injured parts
and allays the inflammation almost in
stantly. He mentions case where a
child fell backward into a bath-tub of
boiling water, and was nearly fayed
from her neck to below her hips. Her
agonies were indescribable; but her
clothing being gently removed, and the
lime and oil preparation thickly spread
over the injured surface. she was sound
asleep in five minutes. Subse-
quently, the parts were carefully
water three times day, the oil dress
ing renewed, and the little patient rap
idly recovered. Though all the scalded
skin came off, she did not have a scar.
This remedy leaves no hard coat to dry
on the sores, but softens the parts, and
aids nature to repair the injury in the
readlest and most expeditions manner.
This mixture may be procured in the
drug stores; but if not thus accessible.
slack lump of quick lime in water,
and as soon as the water is clear, mix il

case is urgent, use boiling water over

Griffins' eggs were considered very
valuable, and were made into large
goblets; but it is probably that these
eggs were really laid by ostriches.
THE UNICORN.
This animal was more absurd than
frightful, and looked very much like a
large horse, with one immense horn on
it's folehead. This iorn was white at
the bottom, black in the middle,
and red at the tip. The uniforms beau
ty was further improved by having a
Write body, red head, and blue eyes.
It was said to run faster than any
horse; and in spite of it's queer appear
ance, it was very aristocratic quadru-
ped and stanch supporter of the Brit
ish crown.
In tho arms of Great Britain itstands

The lion and the unicorn
Were fighting for the crown;
The lion beat the unicorn

doctrine.
Another of my neighbors, Mr.. Irwin
Meyer, also made test with rye. A
lot was sown in the fall, which afforded
early cutting for his cows-Nrr. M. has
adopted soiling in part-which was Of
material advantage. The crop afterwards
was permitted to grow up again and

Victor HugO's Dcvil-Fish.

The uosopus or poulpe is cephalo-
pod mollusk, having round purse like
body, and eight arms united at the base
by a web, by opening and shutting
which it swims backward, after the
manner of the jelly-fshes. Each arm
has double alternate series Of suckers,
by which they seize their prey, and
moor themselves to submarine objects.
They are solitary, active, andvoracious,
seeking their food chiefly at night.
They are the polypS of Homer and Ar
istotle. The commcA poulpe of the
European seas has body about as
large as the clinched fist, with the arms
expanding three or four feet. In trop-
ica] America they grow very large; one
was found dead on the beach at Nassau,
Bahamas, ten feet long, each arm
measuring more than FIVE feet, and
estimated to weigh about $50 pounds;
and they are believed to exist there
even larger than this In cold waters
they are small, and not to be feared by
man; but in the tropics, as on the coast
of Brazil, the large species are very
powerful and dangerous, The common
poulpe of the French coast has given
rise to the mythical "devil-fsh" intro
duced by Victor Hugh in the s'Toilers
of the Sea-" The novelist has mixed
up polyp and poulpe, misled by the
name given by Aristotle, and thus
manufactured an impossible creature

German and French Soldiers Con-
traStnd.

The German soldier is almost ma
chine; his obedience Is silent; his dis
cipline is passive; he has no hesitations;
he possesses snbordlnation and submits
sion as natural gifts. The Frenchman,
on the contrary, has opinions and ideas
of his own which no discipline can en-
tirely drive out; of course, he is obedi-
emf, because he would be shot if he
were not so, but his obedience is not
inert; it is an act of reason, it is accom-
panied by quantity of mental reserva-
tons and considerations which never
enter into German head. The result
is that he is not susceptible of being
treated Like bundle which stops where
it is until it is moved again, and that
therein lies a serious disadvantage in q
movement like a mobilization, where
the duty of each soldier is to fall in 81
lently, and stir no more of his own &C
cord.

A Parrot Story,
From the Liberal Christian,

From the Liberal Christian.
My father was an old gentleman who
was very regular in his habits. Every
evening it was his custom to take a
stroll after tea to visit some old friends
of the name of Tate, who lived in the
next street. Before leaving the house
he would open the door Of the dining
room where we used to sit, and would
say aloud, ''Only going down to Tate's."
Now it happened one evening that
Polly's cage door was left open. We
sometimes let him walk about tie room
when he was very good, as agreat treat.
This evening we suddenly missed him
from the room, and could not think
where he had gone. We all set to work
and searched the house high and low;
no Polly could we find. So at last my
father left, as usual, to pay his visit to
our neighbors, leaving us still looking
for our pet. What was his surprise
upon turning the corner of the street,
to see Polly quietly waddling down the
middle of the road. 'sWhy, Polly"
said he, "where are you going ?' Upon
which master Poll cooked his ;mpudent
little head on one side, and looked up
and said, "Only going down to Tate's.''

Russian Industries

In 1866 Russia had 100 foundfies and
machine shops, only ffty-two of which&
were provided with steam. At the
present time there are 362 of these es-
Establishments, seventy nine of which
are exclusively occupied with the man
ufacture of agricultural implements.
Statistics are at hand concerning 179
shops only; these employ 1923 work
men. In 1868 there were 222 locomo-
tives made in Russia; lastyear the num-
Der was 796 A large number of
English worlkmen are employed in
Russian engineering shops, but they
complain of being treated as naturalizea
Russian subjects; that is to say, their
personal rights and liberties are but
little respected.

FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS.

9 The Penny We Meant to Gie.,'
Ihere > funny tale Of a stingy man,
VINO was nore too good, but might have
been worse
Who went to his church on q Sunday night,
And carried along his well-flled purse
When the sexton came with his begging-plate,
Inc church WAS but dim with the candles
light;
The stlngy man fumbled all through his purse,
And chose coin by touch and not sight.
Its an old thing now that guineas should be
80 lko unto pennies in shape and size.
" IL give penny" the stingv man sald
Ihe poor must not gifts of pennies
despise.''
Tie penny fell down with clatter and ring |!
And back in his seat leaned the stingy man.
" Ihe world is so full of the poor" he Thought,
can't help them ALL give what can. !"
Ha, la how the sexton smiled, to be sure,
10 see the gold guinea fall in his plate
la, ha how the stingy mans heart was
wrung,
Perceiving his blunder, but just too late
mo matter" he said; Tin the Lords account
-, Ihat guinea, of gold is set down to me.
Ihey lend to Him who give to the poor;
1t was not 80 bad an investment.
INA, ma, mon" the chuckling sexton cried
out;
'Ihe Lord is na'cheated-He kens thee well:
he knew it was only by accident
That out o thy fingers the guinea fell!
he keeps an account, ma doubt, for the
puir;
But in that account He'll set down to thee
Ma MAR o that golden guinea, my mon,
Imam the one bare penny We meant to gle !"
There's comfort, too, in the little tale
serious side rs well as joke;
comfort for all the generous poor,
In the comical words the sexton spoke.
comfort to think that the good Lord knows
How generous we really desire to be-,
And will give us credit in His account
For all the pennies we long ito gi'e"
