The Shape OF Bells.

l. i very likely that the sha, OF
bells was suggested at first by IKE sonor
Gus qualities Of certain metalic vessels
in household use, which when struck
gave fourth peculiar sounds. BY different
practical tests. il was found in time that
the present conical form was the hes,
adapted for the conveyance of sound to
distance In the catalogue of one OF
the bell founders of this place, it is stated
that IN the single department Of church
bells, the establishment has nearly one
hundred patterns, extending from the

UNAVAILABLE MATTER.
In spite of official warnings and no.
tees almost without number, people
still continue to send to the pest office
articles which cannot be handled or de-
livered. In the New York Office within
the past month the searcher department
has found in the mail bags and held as
unavailable matter the following:
Received Alive Rattlesnakes, black
snakes, copperhead snakes, moccasin
snakes, cats, grasshoppers, bees, hornets,
wasps, alligators, canary bird, potato
bugs, horned frogs, tortoise, turtles
Received Dead.-Mice, butterflies,
humming birds, rats, insects, squirrels,
quail, bugs, pheasant.
Cooked Articles. pudding,
boiled quail. ham sandwiches, bread
and butter, cake, crackers, bread pud-

Miscellaneous Pistols, loaded car
tridges, torpedoes, medicines, glassware,
clothing, soiled undergarments, baby

shrubs, roots, scions, herbs, fresh and
dried, fruits and flowers, six cases OF dy-

But it is not only in posting matter
which cannot be mailed that the public
is careless to degree almost beyond be-
lief Hardly a day passes that letters
unsealed, unaddressed, and containing
sums of money, checks, and other valu-
ables are not dropped into the boxes.
During the past six months 1888 ur-
/ sealed registered letters were received at
the New York office. They contained
in cash, $6,S49 81, and in checks, drafts,
&C., s205,6l5 Sc, making total OF

opes. Not long ago well known city
bank posted ST. 800, 900 worth of United
States bonds, which were unregistered
and easily negotiable, in an envelope SC
Amsy that it broke open before it left
the stampers table. Similar instances
of carelessness could be repeated almost
without number. Indeed, it is hardly
to be wondered at that. the officer who
related these circumstances felt called

The Birth of a Storm.

When we are asked TO give al ac
count OF the birth OF storm, We are
compelled to admit that our storms are
almost without exception, foundlings
and that, as the precise conditions to
which they owe their origon are, for the
most part, shrouded in uncertainty
warm discussions at times arise as to
the parish whence they have set out or
their wanderings. Dove said long ago
that storms were due to the interference
of the polar current, or the east wind,
with the equatorial current or west
wind. lie gave the winds these names,
because on his views the east winds
really consisted OF air slowing from the
north or south pole toward the equator,
which was, modified in the direction of
its motion by its change of latitude :;
while west winds were really due to air
endeayoring to make its way back to
the pole from the equator, whose course
was in It's turn modified 10y its moving
from lever to higher ATTITUDES. To the
conflict of these two grand currents,
east and west wind, Dove attributed all
our storms but he did not attempt to
explain how the currents came into col
lisior. These views, however correct
on their cosinioa principles, have been
superseded of late years at least, as re
CARDS the explanation OF our winds, by
the modern views of the relation be-
tween the wind and the distribution of
barometrical pressure but, unfortu-
natelv. We still remain in comparative
ignorance of the ultimate causes to
which thi, distribution Of perSsure, or
the rise and fall Of She barometer, are
due To give some conception OF the
e<istin. difference ot opinion on these
fundamental principles Of cur science, /
nav say that while some authorities
maintain int the force of the wind in a
hurricane is cpgsed by the amount Of
barometrical disturbance which accom-
rancs It. others hold that She fall of the
barometer at the center is itself in great
measure, due to the centrifugal force Of
the revolving mass Of air Popular

Thoughts for Teachers

"What in life is more beautiful than
happy human faces?
''if you desire your pupils to be pune
tual and early, set the example yonr-
self"
"Don't give your pupils long lectures
on mortality. Short sermons are the
best"
"See that your pupils understand
clearly what you desire them to do.
Most of all, endeavor to understand it
yourself"
seThere is not trouble so deep and
swift-running that we may not cross
safely over, if we have courage to steer,
and strength to pull"
"The mind of the pupil is to the teach
err what the clay is to the potter-a
plastic body that may be so fashioned
as to become an object of admiration or
insignifcance."
''rhe true value of teacher is deter
mined not by what he knows, nor by
his ability to impart what he knows,
but by his ability to stimulate in others
q ueSlTe 10 kIlOW.
"The teacher whose mind shall not
become desert must drink daily from
the fountain Of his calling Forty eager
pupils cannot quench their thirst for
knowledge by looking at an empty YES
sell
"The early years Of life have the
principal influence in moulding charac-
ter. | believe, in truth, that a person
can so mould the child by the time he is
ten years old, that no future training
can dispossess his mind of the principal
inculcated"
Courtesy of manner Is one of the
greatest essentials to q teacher or any
one who aims at success in guiding
children on the road to knowledge. Not
that they should go through all the for
mula that Chesterfield lays down as es-
sential to intercourse between ladies and
gentleman, but they must show studied
kindness for their welfare, and regard
for their feelings"
"Public education is an interest sufii-
GENTLY serious to call for candid investi-
CATION instead of partisan legislation.
Granted that enthusiasm may lead some
to overstate or misstate the Office and
excellencies of public education, it still
remains for all whose interests are atfec-
ted to ascertain whether or not these in
terests are advanced by sustaining pub
lie schools"
"The teacher mnst know how to enter
into the hidden recesscs of the youthful
mind, and from that point work out
ward and upward. The pupil is like a
treasure in the sea, and the teacher like
a diver who goes to the bottom to bring
it up If you do not descend and ascer
tain first where the child's mind is, you
will not bring him up where you are
The descent of the teacher is essential &c
the ascent of the pupil.

Spanish Living and Dying

The Spanish father is absolute king
and lord by his own hearthstone, but
his sway is so mild that it is hardly felt.
A LIGHT word between husband and wife
sometimes goes unexplained, and the
rift between them widens through life.
They caanot be diyorced-they will not
incur the scandal of public separation
and, as they pass lives Of lonely isola-
ton in adjoining apartments, both think
rather better OF each other and of them
selves for this levilish persistence.
If men are never henpecked except
by learned wives, Spain would be the
place of all others for timid men to
marry in. The girls are bright and vi
vacious, but they have never crossed,
even in school dav excursions, the Dor
der lines of the ologics. They have an old
proverb which coarsely conveys this
idea-that "a Christian woman in good
society ought not to know anything be
yond her cookery book and her missal.
Az ordinary Spaniard is sick but once
in his life, and the old traditions which
represent the doctor and death as always
hunting in couples still survive in Spain.
IL all well-todo families the house OF
death is always deserted Immediately
after the funeral and the stricken ones
retire and pass eight days in inviolable
seclusion Children are buried in collins
of gray color, pink or blue, and car
ried open to the grave.
4 luxury of grief consist, il shutting
up house where death has taken
place and never suffering it to be opened
again. once saw a beautiful house
and wide garden thus abandoned in one
OF the most fashionable streets of Mad

Duke lived in Paris, leading rafting
