Lightning HC 81 Funeral.

A short time ago, number of people
had assembled at Mr.. Barnard's, in Little
Valley, Cattaraugus County, New York, to
witness the funeral of a child Of his who
had just died of diphtheria. The people
had just got together, and were about to
open the. services, when the lightning struck
the house, passing down the chimney, de-
molishing the stovepipe, dividing It into
two parts. One branch struck Mrs. j. B.
Munger, tearing off both shoes, burning
hole In the heel Of one stocking, and blister
ing place on the foot the size of silver
dollar, and cutting the flesh on the bottom
of the other very badly. She was also
burned on the lower part of her limbs, and
her dress torn to pieces. She was rendered
insensible by the shock, and was supposed
for time to be dead. She rallied however,
and although severely prostrated, Is now
likely to recover. The dress of another
lady was torn somewhat and other people
shocked by the bolt, but no one was hurt
much except Mrs. Munger. The otherpart
Of the bolt passed into the room in which
the body Of the child lay, and when near
the centre Of the room, shivered the floor,
and passed through, killing two dogs that
were under the floor. @&sj g qfat

How His Trousers Got Shortened.

a certain gentleman purchased pair
of pants a few days ago, which, upon
being tried OH at home, he found to be
too long, That night he remarked to
his wife that he wished her to take off
about an inch Of each leg, which would
make them the desired length, Being
fond Of teasing her husband, she told
him that she shouldn't do anything of
the kind, and he retired without having
obtained promise from her that she
would attend to the matter. Soon after
he had left for his room, however, she
as matter Of course, clipped off the
superfluous inch, as she had been asked
to do. The family Is composed of six
female members, and each one of the
five, who were In adjoining rooms,
heard the dispute between man ana
wife, and after the latter had taken of
the required inch and retired, the old
lady, desiring to "keep peace In the
family" and not knowing what her
daughter-in-law had done, cautiously
slipped into the room and cut off another
inch. In this way did each Of. the five
ladies, unknown to the other, and all
with the praiseworthy object of pre-
venting any misunderstanding between
tho couple, clip an inch from the legs
of the gentleman's trousers. The fol-
owing morning, all unconscious Of
what had taken place during the night,
he rolled up his pants in piece of pa
per, and took them to the tailor to be
shortened to the desired length. Upon
a hasty glance the latter ventured the
opinion that they were already short;
but the owner insisted that they were
fully an inch too long. Tho tailor had
no more to say, and our friend retired.
On the following Saturday he called
for the pants and took them home, and
was supremely disgusted at finding
that the legs reached only trlfle below
the knee. He straightway accused the
tailor. but his wife heard him and came
to the rescue, explaining that she had
taken an inch from each Of the legs,
and her acknowledgment was followed
by that Of each Of tho other flye ladies
when 1t was discovered that yaltogothe'
the legs had been shortened to the .ex-
tent ofsseyen inches. al3s sli,ls. n y ssF

Children's Rights.

Every child has right to the best
food, the most comfortable clothing,
and the best home that his parents can
afford him. When he is old enough he
has right to such employments and
amusements as will keep him from idle
ness and vice, The child has q right to
the companionship of the pure and in
nocent of his own age, but above all to
that OF his father and mother. The
child's right of property should be re-
spected. Let him feel that whatever
he has Is his very own; not in name
only, and that father, mother, sister
or brother can take possession of it
when 80 disposed. BY respecting his
rights In this matter, he will learn to
respect the rights of others. When q
child is old enough to enter school, he
has right to pleasant school-room,
to comfortable seat, to good ventila-
tlon, and to such attention from the
teacher as shall prevent his stay IN
school from being physical calamity.
The child has right to such mental
training as shall tend to the develop
ment of all his faculties. If one is cul-
tivated to tho exclusion Of other, he is
dofrau ded Of his right to the full use OF
all his powers. The child has right
to be taught how to think; how to find
out tor himself ways of doing things.
How little originality we find among
school childrenl Half tho time
they study and reoite their lessons
without giving a thought to their
meaning. Their essays are sketches
taken from some history, or extracts
from tho cyolopedia. The child has a
right to its own individuality. A
bright little girl was put into one Of
our model city schools. After attend
ing the school few weeks, she was
asked how she liked 1t. "Well,'' said
shs, ! suppose tits very nice, but wish
there were some Marys and Jennles and
Toms and Dicks and Harrys there"

Row shaving Originated.

The custom OF shaving the beard was
enforced by Alexander of Macedon.
not for the sake Of fashion, but for a
practical end. He knew that the SOL
diors of the Indus, when they anoo,tr,-
tered their foes, had tho habit of grasp
ing them by the beard, and so ne order
ed his soldiers to shave. Afterward
shaving was practiccd in the Macedon-
Ian army, and then among Greek citi-
zens. The Romans initiated the Greeks
in the practice, as they did in many
other things, and spread it to the differ
Ont European nations yet barbaric. In
the Middle Ages, at the time of the
Renaissance, shaving was introduced,
and the habit was retained, though
classicism gave place to romanticism,
and that In It's turn was replaced by
realism. The beard was a source Cf
trouble to Peter the Great, who, stimuli
taneously with the introduction OF his
great reforms In Russia, tried to induce
the people to initiate the shaving ma
tions. This innovation was resisted by
his subjects with the utmost persistence
and they preferred to pay a heavy fine
rather than suff,r disfigurement, as
they believe, Of the image Of God. TO
the Russians Of olden times tho beard
was a symbol of liberty. In several
countries Of Western Eurol 0 and In

ed to honor only about twenty years

The Engineer gives this example Of
the value Of black lead as lubricator !:
"a hy-wheel shaft-bearing eight
inches In diameter and ten inches long,
carried load of nearly ten tons. The
bearing was supported on box-girder,
and was lined with good brass. The
engine could not be run, as this bearing
invariably got nearly red hot after a
few revolutions; various oils, tallow,
sulphur and gun powder were tried,
with most indifferent success. BY
using q mixture of talluw and sulphur
the engine could be run half an hour
at time, and once or twice has run a
whole day, the shaft making sixty rev.
olutiOns per minute. 1t was deter
mined to haYe new crank shaft with
q longer bearing, but at the last mo-
ment the use of black lead and tallow
was suggested, a package of the ordi-
nary black lead used for stoves was
worked up with some tallow, the bear
ing carefully wiped, and the grease
box on the cap filled with the mixture.
The bearing never heated again unless
oil was allowed to get access to it. The
success Of plumbago as lubricator
