ENTERTAINING HER BIG SISTERS
BEAU

'sMy sister'll be down in a minute, and says
you're to wait il you please;
And says might stay till she came, ifPd prom
Use her never to tease.
Nor speak till you spoke to me first. But that's
nonsense, fer how would you know
What she told me to say, il didn't? Don't you
really and truly think so?
sand then you'd feel strange here alone! And
you wouldn't know just where to sit
For that chair isn't strong on the legs, and we
never use it bit.
We keep it TO match with the sofa. But Jack
said it would be like you
To flop yourself right down upon 1t and knock
out the very last screw.
''S'pose you try? won't tell. Your afraid to.
O!you're afraid they would think 1t was
meant
Well, then, there's the album-thats pretty, il
your fingers are clean.
For sister says sometimes L daub it; but she
only says that when she's cross
There's her picture. You know it? It's like her;
but she aintt as good looking, of course!
''This is me. It's the best of 'em all. Now tell
me, you'd never have thought
That was as little as that? It's the only one
that could be bought
For that was the message to pa from the pho
graph man where sat
That he wouldn't print of any more till he first
got his money for that
'swhatp Maybe your tired Of waiting. Why,
often she's longer than this.
There's all her back hair to do up and all of her
front curs to friZ.
But it's nice to be setting. here talking like
grown people, just you and me,
Do you think you'll be coming here often? Oh,
do! but don't come like Tom Lee.
''Tom Lee. Herlast beau. Why, my goodness!
He used to he here day and night,
Till the folks thought he'd be her husband; and
Jack says that gave him fright
You won't run away, then, as he did? for you're
not rich man they say;
Pa says you are poor as church mouse. Now,
are you? And how poor are they?
saint you glad that you met me? 1 am, for !
know now your hair isn't red.
But what there is left Of it's m0usy, and not
what that naughty Jack said.
But there! must 90. Sisters coming. But |
wish could wait just to see
Ii she ran up to you and she kissed you in the
ways used to kiss Lee"

plea Lucky Man.

II is by no moons a strage thing that DR..
Kennedy should have received the following
letter. BY reading it you will see in one min
ute why James Andrews was thankful:
TROY, N. Y, April Sth, 1880.
DR.. ID. Kennedy, ROndOut, N. Y:
DEAR SIR:-Until within recent date had
for several years suffered greatly from gravel,
called by the doctors the brick-dust sediment.
For about year past this sediment has not
passed off i'm the usual quantity, but has accu-
INFLATED, causing me untold pain. Having
heard of ''Kennedy's FavOrite Remedy" | tried
it in my case and after using about one and
half bottles, voided stone from the bladder,
Of an oval shape, 7-l6 Of an inch long and
rOughh on its surface. l send you the largest
piece that you may see of what it is composed.
Since then have felt no pain. L now cOnsid-
er myself cured, and cannot express my thank
fulness and gratitude for so signal deliver
ance from a terrible disease. You have my
consent to use this letter should you wish to do
so for the benefit Of other sufferers.
Yours truly,
JAMES ANDREWS.
No. 10 Marshal St., Ida Hill.
When we consider that the medicine which
did this service for Mr.. Andrews costs only one
dollar a bottle il would seem that persons af-
fiicted i'm like fashion can afford the expense
of testing its virtues. Get it of your druggist
or address DIR. David Kennedy, ROndOut, N. Y.

The principal amusement in rural
New York this winter is guessing at the
weight of a hog. The guessers pay fifty
cents "A chance, then they guess, and the
man who guesses nearest the correct
weight takes the hog. At a village near
Croton Lake one hundred and twenty
three men took chances and four men
guessed the exact weight-fve hundred
and eighty-nine pounds. Thus does the
cultured orient gid the precious mo-
ments with the germs of intellectual
growth, while in the rude unlettered
West the ignorant masses hunger for
the food of thought, and pine away in
sad aesthetic inanition. Huntington

The Rifle Bullet.

The rifle bullet in use in the United
States service is formed by compression;
is made of lead alleged with 6.6 per
cent. of tin and weighs .405 grains; in
form it is cylindro with a
hemispherical head and small cavity
in the base; it has three broad grooves
on the cylindrical part 10 contain the
lubricant; it enters more than one-half
its length into the case, which thus
covers and protects the lubricant; it is
securely held in place by turning in the
end of the case closely against its sides;
this crimping effectually closes the case,
and protects the powder from moisture,
making the cartridge perfectly water
proof, but is attended with a loss of mi
tial velocity to the ball of twenty three
feet. Bullets for long range firing have
usually one part of tin to twenty of lead
q soft lead bullet also inflicts a worse
wound than one that is hardened. The
word caliber applied first to the weight
of the bullet, then to the diameter
which determined the diameter of the
gun, now signifies the diameter of the
bore of any firearm, and is expressed in
inches or fractional part of an inch. IN

FACTS AND FIGURES.

Chicago has $4,000 girls working at
The various trades for the average wages
Of 81 a week.
The production of anthracite coal
in 1881 was about 2S, 800, 900 tons. An
increase of 100000 tons is expected to
occur this year.
There are in England and Wales
10000 women who are classed as ha-
bitual drunkards. The number of men
in the same category is 27,87S.
About 10000 people in the city of
Buffalo are supported by the railroad
companies. The amount expended
there by the different roads in wages
alone will foot up over S3,000000 an
nually.
The securities held by the Hartford
Comm banks and insurance COM
panies, during the two years ending
December 81, increased in value
$9,765, 026, or more than $4,000 for
every day of the two years, Sundays
included.
1t has already been noted that fires
were unusually prevalent and disas-
trous last year. There was no ex-
ception to the rule in New York City,
where the losses by fire in 1881 were
S5,800,000, against 50, $4,000 the pre-
vious year. The fires numbered 1,780.
Late statistics show that to the &c.
100000 Japanese people there are only
about 100000 head of cattle, or two
head to every one hundred people;
while in the United States there are
seventy-three head of cattle to every
one hundred people.
The amount of money in circula-
ton in the country at present is esti-
mated at the enormous sum of $i,456,-

The Impending Ruin OF ChiOs.


Chios would, if telegram from
Athens prove correct, seem hardly a
profitable place for the investment of
money in freehold land. Not only have
earthquakes of late given the inhabit-
ants more than ordinary trouble, but
the ground is gradually sinking, hot
springs are everywhere appearing, and
the inhabitants look forward to finding
the whole island submerged in the sea
at no very distant date. This does not
seem to be by any means pleasant
prospect for the natives who, while they
deplore the instability of the land which
they have been used to regard as home,
are scarcely prepared to share its for
tunes should it sink much lower than at
present, But as in the darkest storm
there is often streak of light, so in the
troubles of Chios there is one section at
least of humanity that will find room for
consolation. 1t is in ChiOs that the
finest and headiest. Eaki is made; the
raki which beguiles even the followers
of Mohammed, and makes the gravest
Christians of Athens at times little un,
steady in their gait. With Chios at the
bottom of the sea, this seductive tluiC
will enchant the Eastern epicure NJ
more; and, in default of the tasteful
liquor, he will probably drink nothing
but water. The disappearance of Chic,
might accordingly be regarded as ;
great temperance movement in thu

Shaw University, a Baptist, institu-
