Fool Friends.

| IColonel K. G. Ingersoll.l
Nothing hurts man, nothing hurts a
party, 80 terribly as fool friends.
| A fool friend is the sewer of bad news,
of SANDER and all base and unpleasant
things.
A fool friend always knows every mean
thing that has been said against you and
against the party.
He always knows where your party is
losing, and the other Is making large
gains. '..t
He always tells you of the good luck
your enemy has had.
He implicitly believes every story
against you, and kindly suspects your
defense.
A fool friend is always full Of a kind
of stupid candOr.
He is so candid that he always believes
the statements Of an enemy.
He never suspects anything on your
side.
Nothing pleases him like being shocked
by horrible news concerning some good
| man. #U.rv g - 5.
He never denies lie unless it is in
your favor. .....- .....
He is always finding fault with his
party and is continually begging pardon
for not belonging to the other side.
He is frightfuily anxious that all his
candidates should stand well with the
opposition.
He is forever seeing the faults Of his
party and the virtue of the other.
He generally shows his candor by
scratching his ticket.
He always searches every nook and
corner of his conscience to find reason
for deserting friend or principle.
Tn the moment Of victory he is mag
unanimously on your side. In defeat he
consoles you by repeating prophecies
made after the event.
The fool friend regards your reputation
as common property, and as common
prey for all the vultures, hyenas and
jackals.
He takes a sad pleasure in your mis-
fortunes.
He forgets his principles to crafty
your enemies.
He forgives your maligner and SIAN
derer with all his heart.
He is so friendly that you can not
kick him.
He generally talks for you, but always
bets the other way.

The Dog Star.

Jack was billed to make his "first
appearance on any stage" some years
ago in Buffalo. N. Y. He was trained
to come on in a certain act and frus-
trate crime by dragging mounted
villain by the throat from his saddle.
At rehearsal Jack acted like star,
never missing to floor his man, whose
neck was, of course, securely padded to
prevent injury from the brute's teeth;
but when the night of the performance
came, the music and audience fright
ened the dog actor, and coming to the
front he simply looked at his victim
and ran off wagging his tail. Jack was
afterward kept chained in the wings in
order to make him accustomed to the
noise of the crowd. As the nights pro-
crossed the dog appeared to have lost
all memory of his cue, the villain ap-
peared without padding on his neck,
and the last nights of the drama were
announced. Jack changed the whole
order of things, however. The even
ing before the farewell performance,
the villain emerged as usual on horse
back from the wings when suddenly
Jack broke his chain, and, dashing at
his man, Mortified the audience by
fastening his fangs in the poor fellows
neck and dragging him theoretically to
the stage. The curtain was rung down,
several actors ran to the rescue, and
the villain was only rescued after a
severe struggle. The incident, though
uncomfortable as it was to the actor,
proved vastly profitable to the manager;
Jack never again forgot his part, and
the drama was played to crowded houses
for several consecutive months.-Balti-

During an excursion from this city to

incident occurred which will never be
forgotten by those who heard Of it. The
Kennard House, in that city, was crowd
ed with. guests, when an eccentric and
witty druggist of Smithfeld street apr.
peared late ct night at the hotel Office
and demanded bed. The clerks replied
that there were only two vacant beds in
the house-one wherein was quartereda

and the other room wherein was Pitts.
burgh evening-newspaper man, who
were with the excursion, ss.s. To tell. the
truth, they are both pretty drunk; 50
you may take your choice as to which
room you will sleep in. The druggist.
said that on general principles he would
take his chances with the evening news
paper journalist, as he would doubtless
be so drunk that hewould lie dormantly
quiet all night. He went to bed and
was soon sound asleep. The journalist,
however, awakened about u O'Clock,
and, thinking il . long time between
drinks, dressed himself unconsciously
in the druggist & clothes, and sailed ont
to make anight Of it, Ever and anon he
muttered, IS lie treated all present,

The Men Who Were Not Hanged.

occasion" said the Duke. "The troops
had taken to plundering a good deal.
1t was necessary to stop it; and Issued
an order announcing that the first man
taken in the act should be hanged on
the spot. One day, just as we were
sitting down to dinner, three men we're
brought to the door of the tent by the
prevot. The case against them was
clear, and I had nothing for it but to
desire that they should be taken away

They seemed dreadfully shocked, and
could not eat their dinner. I didn't
like it much myself, but, as I told them
Ihad no time to indulge my feelings; !
must do my duty. Well, the dinner
went off rather gravely, and next morn
ing, sure enough, three men in uniform
were seen hanging from the branches
of a tree close tojthe high road. It was
a terrible example, and had the desired
effect; there was no more plundering;
when, some months afterward, I learned
that one OF my staff took counsel with
DR.. Hume, and, as three men had just
died in hospital, they hung them up
and let the three culprits return to
their regiments.rT' Weren't you very
angry, Duke r. Well, I suppose I
was at first, but as I had no wish to

wanted the example, and as the exam

soon died out, and I confess to you that
i am very glad now that the three lives
were spared. Life of Wellington. y

Light Vibrations.

The vibrations of Light, says the
Edinburgh Revie,D, which make
their presence felt by striking upon
the nerve structures of the eye,
are as marvellous in the matter
of size as they are in the matter Of
speed. A soap-bubble can be blown
SO thin that the film is not more than
the 1-156,000 part of an inch in thick
ness. Experiment with film of this
character has shown that three or four
such, placed together, would give depth
enough for q single vibration of light.
The German optician, Nobert, by the
exertion,of almost uncomfortable skill,
rules ines upon glass, of which as many
as7112, 900 lie within the sixth of an
Inch. Such lines, again, have been ex-
perimentally shown to be little fur
ther apart than the length of lumin-
GUS vibration. The shortest vibrations
of light include at least two such lines
in their excursions or amplitude. The
finest lght-vibrations which have been
measured are not more than 1-57 900
part of an inch in length. The line
which follows here, -, represents the
length of such vibration magnified
10000 times. But If there are $1,000
vibrations of light in an inch, how many
must there be in the 93,00O,OOO miles
which intervene between the earth
and the sum- Fifty-seven thous-
and in an inch implies nearly
3,7O0,000,000 in a mile, or, in round
numbers, $4,000, OOO,0OO,00O in 1885,
600 miles. As light travels $4,000
miles in q second, therefore, 679, O00,-
000,000,000 of vibrations must pass any
fixed point in the route every second,
or, what comes to the same thing, must
strike each second upon the eye at the
end of the journey, to call up in it the
sensation Of vision. The number, as a
matter of fact, far transcends mans
powers of exact estimation. Millions
of millions are quantities that the hu-
man mind is entirely incompetent to
grasp in any definite sense; and this
difficulty is materially enhanced when,
as in this case, the millions Of millions
have to be conceived as succeeding each
other in the brief interval which is con-
cerned in the single beat of seconds
pendulum. Nevertheless, it is substan-
tally with such quantities that physical
science has of necessity to deal when it
undertakes to investigate the character
of light. When beam of clear sun
shine flashes upon the human eye
shocks as frequent and as minute as
those which have been described strike
upon the nerve structure of the organ.
