The Heart "A a Machine.

The heart is probably the most eff
cient piece of physical apparatus known.
From purely mechanical point of view
it is something like eight times as eff
cient Is the best steam engine. It may
be described, mechanically, as little
more than q double force pump fur
nished with two reservoirs and two
pipes of outflow; and the main problem
of it's action is hydro.dynamical. The
left ventricle has capacity of about
three ounces; it beats Is times min
ute; and the work done in overcoming
the resistance of the circulating system
is equivalent to lifting its charge of
blood little short of ten feet (9923 it,
The average weight of the heart is a
little under ten ounces (9.89 oz.) The
daily work of the left ventricle is, in
round numbers, ninety foot-tons; add
ing the work of the right ventricle, the
work of the entire organ is nearly one
hundred and twenty-five foot-tons.
The hourly work of the heart is accord
ingly equivalent to lifting itself twenty
thousand feet an hour.
An active mountain climber can aver
age 1000 feet of ascent an hour, or one.
twentieth the work Of the heart. The
prize Alp Iengine, Bavaria, lifted its
own weight 2,7OO feet an hour, thus de
monstrating only one-eighth the eff
cheney of the heart. Four elements
have to be considered in estimating the
hearts work: Q) the statical pressure ot
the blood column equal to the animals
| height, which has to be sustained; @,
the force consumed in overcoming the
inertia of the bleod.veins; (3) the re-
sistance offered by the capillary vessels
(4) the friction in the heart itself
This, in state of health, is kept at itf
minimum by the fabricated serous
membrane of the pericardium.

Valentines Day-Its Custom and
Origin.

St. Valentines Day, the 14th Of Febru-
ary, has come and no doubt anxiety has
oeen relieved IN the minds of the scnti-
mental, faithful, sedate, and love making
young people: who avail themselves of
the customs of the day for transmitting
and receiving missiles through the post
| office. while those of loathsomo tenden-
c1es and cowardly instincts, are afforded
| an opportunite to strike the object OF
their dislike blow under the fifth rib,
by abusive doggeral and absurd carica-
lures.
| The day is named after its originator,
good old man who lived 1000 years
ago. He was much revered and titled
St. Valentine. His memory has long
been cherished, and an annual festival
| used to be the custom as Il tribute to him
| On these occasions it was the rule for
each young man to select some young
woman as Il sweetheart, or in other words
to chose valentine. The custom has
degenerated, until the sum neccssa-
ry to use in the celebration of st. Valen-
tines day, is the price of ali envelope, a
one cent stamp and penny picture of a
ridiculous carlcature.
| Others claim that this choosing of a
valentine arose from the supposition that
birds always choose their mates on the
14th Of February.
| Some who are not satisfied with eitEer
of these stories, say that the custom Or
originated Rome at the festival OF the
Lapercalia, held during the month of
February, when among the ceremonies,
the names of young women were placed
in box, from which they were taken by
young men according to chance.
Choose ye the one that suits your tan
cy best. The custom, no matter how it
started. has grown until it has become a
day of jubilee for the young folks, dread
to the postmasters,a and unpleasant thought
to those who are made the subjects of
loaferish comments, and cowardly insults
through the agency it affords.
In England in an early day it was the
custom on the eve of the 18th day OF
February to chose the names of select
number of maidens, put them into a YES
sci, with an equal number Of names Of the
opposite sex, all drawing name, which
tor the year following was called his OF
her valentine, and the gentlemen gave
to the lady chosen by him, some trinket
or jewelry. In some cases, presents to
the value of $4,000 were thus given.

Flight was accepted by one and all as a
confession of guilt. Liberal rewards
were offered tor the capture of the bro
theirs, David being considered an acces-
sorry to the crime, but neither was ever
apprehended. From the Lone Star State
they went to Louisiana, and in New
Orleans fell victims to that dread
scourge yellow fever. Letters now in the
fathers possession contain the most fer
vent protestations of their innocence, and
subsequent events clearly exonerated them
from completely in the taking off of young
Charles Mckinley. For, years later,
when the main actors in this strange cpl
sode slept in their quiet graves miles and
miles apart; when interest in the scenes
we have related had almost died away,
or was recalled with awe at the hunters
winter freside, the mystery surrounding
the disappearance of the young man was
brought to light! A party Of hunters
while chasing bear in an adjacent
county, found his remains in cave in
which the animal they were pursuing
mad established his lair. There was en-
ly CHASTITY looking skeleton of man,
rusty rifle and, rudely carved in the yield
ing rock upon which 1t rested, these
words: ':Lost, can't find my way out,
Charles Mckinley" That was all, but 1t
told its own story. It solved an enigma
that darkened many lives. It cleared
from the foul stain of murder. though too
late, John Mason and his brother.
This was the llfe-hlstory-a record

can be verified by other living witnesses

A VALENTINE.

Beware OF one who loves thee but too we'll!
Ot one who fain would bind thee with spell,
With power to draw thee, as an unknown land
Lures the impassionea traveller to its strand.
o! if thou wOuldst be free,
Beware of me!
Beware OF eyes that softly fix Oh thee,
canned in their restless glances by thine own,
Aud OF voice, where all things that may be
In maiden hearts are told in every tonc
Ii thou wouldst still be free,
Beware of me!
But If longing, born within thy soul,
Gives thee far-off glimpse of unknown bliss.
Then let thy love speed onward to its goal,>
Nor thy true rest and joy for blindness miss
If thou wouldst not be free.
Then come to me!
Laura Winthrop Johnson, in Scribner.

The Meanest Man on Record.

A farmer in Lancaster county, who
was rich, died within few years. Once
when his home took fire the men en-
gagged in the harvest-field quit their
work long enough to go and put the fire
out, and thus saved the house from
burning down. When he came to SET
tie with his men, when harvest was
over, he took the time they were at the
fire of, and refused to pay for it. One
of them, having refused to settle that
way, brought suit before . Justice and
recovered for full time, at the expense
of several dollars to the farmer for
costs.-La,acaster (Pa.) Examiner.
