The Limits OF Human Life.

/. The human body is constructed on
the basis of being a machine to work up
matter, without Il supply of which it must
fail.
2. The human body is machine
which undergoes constant burning pro-
cess, and requires air to keep up the
flame.
3. The human body is composed of
two-thirds of water and fluid matter,
and requires constant supply of
liquids.
l. The human construction is affected
by temperature, and needs covering OF
clothing.
5. 1t also needs shelter or housing.
g. The human organism has senses or
organs of perception and sensation; these
need gratifying.
Z. The human organism has emo
tons; these sway and influence hum. n
actions, and have to be satisfied.
These are the merely natural conditions
Of human existence and belong alike to
men and women, of whatever sphere of
life or station. If these requirements
and influences can be had and obeyed,
human life will, as far as nature is con-
cerned, go on smoothly and pass through
tuC N0IiOuo ce0kCc VA Aeo CAAoVSASo An -
healthy manner; if, however, these nat
ural demands are checked or badly met,
then complications arise. for it is impos-
sible to say what reaction may not take
place when nature is neglected. All
natural phenomena teach US, that wher-
ever q consecutive course Of develop
ment has been disturbed, unexpected re-
suits happen, and so it is with human or
ganism. If the natural course of
its righteous demands is stopped or neg.
lected, we must be prepared for irregu
lar action and results.
As has been said, these natural de-
mands are constantly Gushing with
social combinations, and the man or
woman that would pass harmonious,
properly regulated existence, must have
9 will of iron and be we'll prepared
against constant inroad upon natures
course.
The amount of disease, bodily and
mental, which we suffer. is entirely due
TO misdirected or neglected natural
action, the result Of centuries. This has
produced new conditions, and il We
stand aghast 1t the inroads Of such evils
- intempsrance have wrought among
mankind. w must And rational reasons

A Waste OF Words.

A reporter of San Francisco morn
ing journal is responsible for the follow
ing:
He was walking up Jackson street one
afternoon when he noticed white man
Celestial artist bent over him. The
porter stopped to look curiously at it,
and soon found himself one of group
similarly engaged. The shop was hole
in the wall with the door open, and
every uncomplimentary remark of the
crowd could be plainly heard within.
Neither the barber nor his patron paid
any attention, however, to the converse
ton, and did not even acknowledge the
pungent quality of the sarcasm and Sec
tional scorn even by smile. This did
not seem on the part of the Chinese bar
Der particularly strange, but on the part
of the white customer it was incompre-
hensible, as the illusions to him were too
pointed to be ignored. As the barber
removed the wet cloth from the top of
his head, and he Strengthened himself up
in the chair, it was seen that he was a
middle-aged man, small, slight and
bald. There was nothing sufficiently
pronounced in his appearance to enable
the indignant spectators to cassidy him,
and they accordingly allowed their
imaginations full scope.
Don't you see he's u regular dago,"
said one.
"Oh, the name skhrub that wouldn't
pay tin cints, as he should, like Christ.
ian! said another.
just then the'stranger arose from the
chair and handed the barber four bits,
which he pocketed without suggesting
anything about change. The crowd was
fairly paralyzed.
Ibid you see that?" excitedly re-
marked small man with green shade
over one eye. He had been earnestly
cursing the Chinese because they
worked for nothing. "Why, the infer
nal heather charges more than any white
barber"
"Oh, bad luck to the rat-atin' idola-
ter" said the Celtic Pathfinder.
"Auf dot vosn't de worst I never saw.
Kreutz kringlen ind krumbrod! re-
marked Teutonic critic.
By this time the undisturbed custom
er had got into his coat.
"Here he comes!' said the small man
with the green shade over his eye. LET
us give the scoundrel a groan."
The crowd threw its soul into the
proposition and gave groan that shook
the windows of the barber shop. The
stoical customer never moved a muscle
Of his countenance, but moved quietly
down the street. AS he reached the cor
ner the crowd gave him another groan,
and were about to give him third testi-
monial of their esteem, when the ex-
pressman on the other side of the street
sang out:
Don't you know, you dog-gone i'd
lots, that that man is stone deaf and
don't hear you. He comes around every
week to have the Chinaman' operate on
his ears"
The crowd suddenly remembered
that Celestial BARRIERS profess to be
aurists, and scattered.

How to Prevent Lamp Chimneys
Cracklng.-A Leipsic journal which
makes specially of matters relating to
glass, gives a method which it asserts
will prevent chimneys from cracking.
The treatment will not only render lamp
chimneys, tumblers and like articles
more durable, but may be applied with
advantage to crockery, stonewa porce-
lain, etc. The chimneys, tumblers, etc. :,
are put into pot filled with cold water
to which some common table salt has
been added. The water is we'll boiled
over a stove, and then allowed to cool
slowly. When the articles are taken out
and washed they will be found to resist
afterward any sudden changes of tenn
perature. The process is simply one of
annealing, and the slower the cooling
part of it is conducted the more effective
will be the work.

+" THE CYCLOPEDLA WAR,

The Cyclopedia War and the Literary Rev.
olution are working wonderful and happy
results for the readers of books, and search
ers after knowledge. The great /" Library of
Universal Knowledge is announced to be
completed, ready for delivery to purchasers
the early part Of July. II is probably the
largest and most important literary work this
country and century have seen. It's based
upon Chambers's Encyclopedia, the last Lon
don edition of which is reprinted entire as
portion of its contents, large corps of Ameri-
can editors and writer's adding thereto vast
amount of information upon about $4,000
subjects in every department of human
knowledge. Chambers Encyclopedia, whose
distinguished merit is universally known, is
the laborious product of the ripest British
and European scholarship, but being work
of foreign production it has been naturally
deficient in its adaptation to the wants of the
American readers. In this new form it is
most thoroughly Americanized, and becomes
at once the largest and most complete ency-
clopedia in the field, at mere fraction of the
cost of any similar works which have pre-
coded it, containing about 10 per cent. more
matter than Appleton's Encyclopedia, at less
than one-ffth its cost, and 20 per cent more
than Johnson's Cyclopedia at little more
than one-fourth its COST
The superlative value and Importance Of
this great Encyclopedia, however, lies es-
pecially in the fact that it is brought within
the reach of every one who aspires after
knowledge and culture. 1t is really library
of universal knowledge. It brings a liberal
education easily within the reach Of every
plow-boy. Every farmer and every mechanic
owes it to himself and to his children that
such cyclopedia shall henceforward form a
part of the outfit of his home. To the intel
ligent man in every walk of life Cyclopedia
is indispensable. 1t is issued in various
styles, in Is large beautiful octave volumes,
varying in prices from $40 for the edition in
cloth, to $25 for the edition in full library
sheep binding, Liberal discounts even from
these extraordinary prices are allowed to
clubs, and the publishers, besides, propose
during the next two months to distribute
$4,000 cash in special rewards TO persons
who forward clubs of five, ten, or more SUBJ
scribers. The American Book Exchange, 764
Broadway, New York, are the publishers,
who will send sample pages and full particu
lars free on request.
