The Current OF Rivers.

A very slight declivity suffices to give
the running motion to water. Three
inches per mile in a smooth, straight
channel gives a velocity of about three
miles an hour. The Ganges. which
gathers the waters of the Himalaya
Mountains. the Hottest in the world, is
at 100 miles from its mouth only 300feet
above the level of the sea, and to fall
800 feet in its long course the water re-
quires more than month. The great
River Magdalena, in South America,
running for LOCO miles between two
ridges of the Andes, falls only 500 feet
in all that distance. Above the distance
of 1000 miles it is seen descending in
rapids and cataracts from the mount
aims. The gigantic Rio de 10 Plata has
so gentle descent to the ocean that in
Paraguay. 1,5O0 miles from its mouth,
large ships are seen which have sailed
against the current all the way by the
force of the wind alone-that is to say
which, on the beautifully incl ned plane
of the stream, have been gradually lift
ed by the soft wind, and even against
the current, to an elevation greater than
our loftiest spires.-Detroit Post and

Yisitants ut Country Stores.

In city paper We recently read as
follows: IF the English want to know
the proper way to conduct the war in
Egypt let them consult the visitants of
a country store"
1t was our good fortune to spend the
first twenty years of our life in the i'm
mediate vicinity of country store, at
which. after we were old enough to be
out nights. many of our evenings were
spent. How well do we remember it!
On the one side were the cloths. cali
Goes, pins. thread, needles and various
other commodities usually designated
dry goods; on the other were crockery,
groceries, hardware, house furnishing
goods, boots and shoes; while in safe
corner was an assortment of such drugs
and medicines as the country doctor
usually pres ribed. In fact, there could
be found almost everything any towns
man would be likely to ask for. Here
on evenings and stormy days were to
be found seated on broken chairs, nail
kegs. boxes. counters, everywhere, the
best men of the tOwnship-men with
brains as hard as their hands. Ofwhat
is commonly called education. they had
little to boast of. Many of them never
had more than three months schooling
in q year, and what they had was of
the more rudimental kind. but they
had good common sense. They could
read, and what was better. could I'M
derstand and remember what they
read. Their newspapers, of which they
usually had two weeklies, one secular
and one religious. were thoroughly
read. and they could usually give dis
tinct and underst ndable account of their
contents.
The store was the place where they
met to talk over what they read and
did. Their meetings were lyceums. de-
batting societies, conference meetings,
and farmers clubs. Some of the best
lessons we ever learned came from the
lips of those farmers, who little knew
what seed they were sowing. Many of
them have gone to the land OF the
blessed. Others can still be found. but
so scattered that it would require many
thousand miles travel to bring us to-
gether. There is scarcely a State in
the Union that has not a representative.
They are not all farmers now; in fact, if
we wanted to fill any position, whether it
required agricultural knowledge. finan-
cisl ability. mechanical skill, or mer-
camille qualifications, one competent
to the task could be found among the
past-time visitants to that country store.
Nor are the people found in such
places so self-opinionated as the writer
of the lines quoted above seems to be-
lieve. They know some things, and
know that they know them, and other
things they do not pretend to know,
while of many others, while deficient
in positive knowledge, they lave pretty
good ideas.-N Y. Sun.

Why Old Maids Abound.

This is a mechanical age. We have
any amount of contrivances for saving
labor and annihilating time. But We do
not teach ourselves self-control. We
are governed by our passions and appe-
tites. That's the reason there are so
many old maids. They don't look af-
ter their physical health. They are
puny, scrawny. sickly and ill-developed.
yet they wonder why men don't marry
them. They wear diamonds in their
ears, they calcimine their faces and they
remedy their defect of figure with horse
hair, and then try to get husbands. l
tell you until women learn to regard
the laws of bodily health. which are the
laws of God, they can never hope to
WELD that talismanic influence over the
opposite sex, which is more gigantic
than the power of diamonds and rouge.

His face grew purple. he clawcd the
