RaZOrs.

BARRIERS often tell us that razOrs
oct tired of shaving, but if laid by
for twenty days they will then shave
well. By microscopic examination
it is found that the tired razor, from
long stropping by the same hanq
and in the same directions, has the
ultimate particles of tibers OF Its sur
faco or edoe all arranged in one di-
rection like the edge OF a piece OF
~ reIvet: but after a months rest,
tbese fibers rearrange themselves
beterogeneously, crossing each other
and presenting saw-like edge, each
fiber supporting its fellow, and hence
cutting the beard, instead of being
forced down fat without cutting as
when layed by. These and many
other instances are offered to prove
that the ultimate particles of matter
are always in motion; and they say
that in the process of welding the
absolute momentum of the hammer
causes an ENHANCEMENT of the orbits
of motion, and hence a rearrange-
ment as in one piece; indeed, IN .
cold state, a leaf of gold laid on a
polished surface of steel, and strick'
en- smartly with a hammer, will have
its particles forced into the steel SO
as to permanently gild it at the
Doint of contract.

Dangers from the Dead.

That the dead should kill the Iiv-
ing seems a paradox; yet NOTHING ia
more true. Indeed we venture to
say, that every year, in our land.
corpses murder more people than as
sassins do. Not only have intramu-
raj interments poisoned whole blocks
and quarters, not only has drinking
water, contaminated by graVeyards,
yearly spread disease and death
through country hamlets, but, be-
fore the process of decomposition
commences, there is often a great
and pressing danger from infectious
disease. We quote a recent instance:
CDR. Goldie, the Medical Officer
of Health for Leeds, England, in his
report to the local authority, states
that every one of thirty people who
attended the wake of an Irish girl,
who recently died in that town from
typhus fever, were attacked by the
same disease, and no fewer than nine
of the cases ended fatally"
So strongly have the needless dan
gers of exposure at funerals impress
ed the medical mind, that the Health
Board of New York have now issued
circular recommending that no
public or church funerals should be
given TO persons dying of either
dlphtheria, scarlet fever, measles or
whooplng cough.
In Chicago, also, where scarlet
fever and diphtheria have been Sc.
we're this past winter, the recon-
mendatiOn of one-hundred medical
men in council was in these words:
"There should be no public funer-
ais of any patient who has died of
any infectious or contagious disease.
Remember that the separation of
the sick person from the well is the
most certain means of preventing
the spread of the disease"
A writer in the Baltimore PHysi-
ci0R and Surgeon, last December,
went so far as to advocate the pas
sage of law On the subject (the
average American man looking up
on Claw" as the cure-all on every
OccasiOn). He thought it should
embOdy the following provisions;
I. Whenever any one dies of
contagious disease, the publication
announcing the death should state
the cause of death.
2. No person except the immedi-
ate family should be permitted to
attend the funeral, and the handling
and burying of the body should be
intrusted to persons who devote
themselves to that business,
3. A sufficient number of car
riages should be kept for the special
purpose of attending these funerals,
and the hiring them for other pur-
poses should. be prohibited, under
the severest penalties,
These are good suggestions, but
people should learn and obey them
out of a natural sense Of sanitary
propriety. not out of obligation to
statute.

Mhr People Are Not HappIer.

HOh, happiness, our beings end and aim"
Such is the poets description of
the end and aim of all. Yet how
few people attain to it! And why Is
it so?
We believe that people enjoy this
life far less than they might. In
stead of seizing the opportunities
that are at hand and making the
most of them, they waste their time
in a vain struggle for the unattaina-
BILE.
The first requisite to the fullest
enjoyment of life is a thorough com
prehension of its transformers.
when you are passing over the sum-
NIT of a mountain you know you are
there but for short time, and no
feature of the view escapes you. The
extensive landscape, the clouds be
tween you, everything unusual and
beautiful, attracts your attention
and contributes to your enjoyment.
But in the ordinary routine OF llte'
people sit down stOlidly, rs II they
were to stay here forever, and close
their ewes to their own surroundings
A great part of our happiness con
sists in ministering to the happiness
of others. We are quite apt to think
this can be done any time, and we
neglect the little chances that are
at hand. When the right time comes
we will do some great thing! Alas.
we forget whether that time will
ever come! Mutability is written
on everything here below. A kind

cious gifts when we are ready 10 Slat

She Meant Business.

Aid. Sam Woods sat contentedIv
in his easy-chair, doing the pleasant
hours away. Business-well, not a
decent case for two weeks. He was
suddenly awakened by a clatter as
of an army rushing up the office
stairs, then the door flew open, and a
little, stuffy woman, having in tow a
big six-fOOter of a cOuntryman, walk
ed in.
81 suppose you hitch persons up
here?" spoke up the little woman,
while the fellow gaped in open
mouthed dismay at the perfect sang
.froid of his companion.
eyes, if by hitching up you mean
getting married." replied the aston
ished magistrate.
"Come, John, step up like little
man until the Justice makes US one
fiesh," said the little woman, coolly;
but John grew very red in the face,
shuff1ed his feet uneasily, shifted his
hands, stared at the woman, then at
the ceiling, and acted very unlike a
happy, prospective bridegroom.
The woman surveyed him careful
ly, her under-lip became firmer, and
a look of sternness lit up her eyes as
she ironically said to the magistrate:
''You must not think hard of John,
dear fellow; he is always timid and
out of sorts when from the farm; be-
sides, am older than he is, and have
been married three times; but l am
lone widow nOw-all three died,
and when l saw John wanted a wife
| spoke to him, and we made up our
minds to hitch--didn't we, dear?"
"Wa-all, ya-ass, l s'pose so if the
Justice be wiling" slowly stammer-
ed the bridegrOom-elect, colOring up
fiercely.
'Now take hold of hands and face
me. No, not that way, ''said the JUS
tice, as the fellow confusedly turned
his back to the woman.
81 say, Jeedge, what be the charg-
es for hitching up? Times be hard
"Never mind his prattle, Judge
tie us up. and be quick about it, and
I'll pay you," interrupted the wo-
man, pulling small United States
Treasury note from the folds of her
dress.
Show much be there, Sally ?" ca
gerly inquired John, his eyes light
ing up like the headlight of loco
motive.
"Indeed, shan't tell; it's all mine
now;" and then insinuatingly, "but
when we are married."
"AIl right, Jeedge; tie us up as
fast as the law will let you; we're
ready" broke in John, excitedly.
In three minutes, city time, the
twain were made one. As they were
going down the stairs the breezes
waited to the ears of the magistrate
these words: ''NeOw, Sally, how
bout that ere money!"

A story of Berkshire True Love.

A correspondent sends US this:
Away back half a century ago there
lived in Lanesboro a rich old farmer.
Then as now rich old farmers were
the possessors of daughters and sons.
And the daughters somehow would
have beax. In the same town lived
an industrious blacksmith, who
sought the hand of the only daugh-
ter of the rich old farmer-who, by
the way, held higher hopes and as
pirations for her, and plainly told
the young man that he "did not
think an anvil and a piano would
sound we'll together" The black,
smith swallowed the rebuff, and
