Ii is amusing, says an observer, TO
watch a slim man weigh himself. He
steps on the platform as an elephant
steps upon a bridge, with an awful
fear of breaking the thing down, and
then puts the three-hundred-poun
weight on the end of the beam. OF
course he takes it off again, but he does
this most unoslentatiously, Having
found that he weighs, say, one hun
bred and seventy-fNe, he will ex-
claim, as he goes out, eve lost ten
pounds since last week. He doesn't
say how much he weighs now; if you
wish to know, there is the scale. He
knows YOU will look.

Partisan Pastimes.

\ lively writer in one OF the
Paris journals describes the play
ful tricks with which the occupants
of omnibuses while away the tedi-
business of a long drive. One will
set the others all yawning by
means of a series of yawns on his
part. Another will secretly bring
into the vehicle a small baglul OF
vivacious snails, which are fur
lively allowed to make their way
to the garments Of the unsuspect-
ing passengers. The third joke Is
taking the silver piece which is
passed by lady to be handed to
the conductor, and in a pretended
fit of abstraction to carefully insert
it in the operators purse, from
which il is released after some dis
cussicn with an air of incredulity
that the claim made by the other
is UnfOunded. Or when a passen-
ger of anything like suspicious
aspect enters the omnibus one will
begin by staring very hard at him,
and then, when he is not looking,
pull out a notebook and pencil
and take notes of him with great
assiduity. The other passenger:
straightway suppose that the note
taker is a detective, and that the
other individual is a criminal oi
some sort, the consequence being
that he is regarded with suspicion
and repugnance, not only during
ing the rest of the journey, but Of
any other occasion when he may
happen again To be encountered.

California Oil Region.

1t is a long time since Professor
Silliman, the noted geologist, pre-
dicted that California would ulu-
mately become the largest oil
producing country in the world
Great efforts have been made Of
late to bring about the fulflIment
Of this prediction. According to
the Scientific American the oil
region consists of a section of
coast range mountains covering
100000 acres, and extending from
Santa Cruz 10 Santa Barbara, a
distance of $50 miles. During the
past four wears the Pacific Coast
Oil company have got control Of
the most OF this territory under
long leases, and within the past
year they have sunk wells which
yield good results, built pumping
works and refneries, laid down
pipe lines, and established factories
for the production of casks and
barrels. They have now about a
score OF wells, and hope soon to be
able to supply not only the mar
kets of Nevada, California and
Oregon, which require 3,500,OOC
gallons yearly, but Japan, Java,
China, Australia and Mexico, which
require perhaps ten times as much
oil. This is a new industry which
is evidently destined to add im-
mensely to the wealth of that state
With its mineral resources, It's
fertile soil, and glorious climate, ii
would seem a. if California should
yield the palm to no region on the
face of the earth.

President Hapgood, of Emory
college, meets the assertions Of
politicians that Georgia is in a
state Of decadenence with some
significant facts. He says that in
1876 the improved lands in the
state amounted TO 2S, 737, ,539 acres.
In 1880 the aggregate had grown
to 29,815,5S1 acres, the increase
of four years being sufficient to
provide farms of 100 acres each
for nearly 1000 families. The
cclored people are buying farms
of from twenty to fifty acres, and
deriving profitable returns from
them.
