The subjoined Opinions of the Press on
Kissing relate to the text which tells u 5
that Jacob kissed Rachel, and then lifted
up his voice and wept."
If Rachel was a pretty girl and kept her
face clean, we can see what Jacob had to
cry about,-Daily Telegraph.
How do you know but that she slapped
his face for him.-L. Y. n. e. Association
News.
The cause of Jacobs weeping was the
refusal of Rachel to allow him to kiss her
observation-disclosures.
1t is our opinion that Jacob wept because
he had not kissed Rachel before, and wept
foC the time lost.-National Reformer.
The fellow wept because the girl did not
kiss him.-Pall Mall Gazette.
jacob wept because Rachel told hin to
do 1t again and he was afraid to.-Netho-
dist Recorder.
Jacob cried because she threatened to
tell her mother.-Christian World.
Jacob wept because there was only n
Rachel to kiss.-Southport News.
He vept for joy because it tasted SO good.
Jewish Chronicle.
We think Jacob cried besause Rachel had
been eating onions.-StandarL.
A mistake. MOI his eyes, but his mouth
watered,-Chester Chronicle.
Our opinion is that Jacob wept because
he found 1t was not half what it was
cracked up to be.-Manchester Examiner
and Times.
Jacob thought it was a fast color, and
wept TO find the paint come otf.-Fine Art
Gazette.
He was n fool. He did not know what
was good for him.-Saturday Review.
Jacob thought she might nave o big
brotheT.-Church Times.
Because there was no time for another
Sword and Trowel.
When Jacob lifted up his voice and wept,
he found that he could not get it as high
rs he expected.-Musical Notes.
Weeping is not infrequently caused by
extreme pleasure, joy, happiness; it might
have been 80 in jacobs case.-Hardwick's
Science Gossip.
We guess this weeping, like many othe-;
Scripture sayings, has to be taken. in Z
Pickwickian sense.

A Salt Water Bath at HONG.

In order to supply the continent from
sea shore to center, from the metropolis to
the frontier, with sea-water, it is not neces-
sary to barrel or bottle it, nor to build a
pipeline. The most excellent way is to
reduce its bulk by evaporation, and when
old Ocean is dry and clean, pack 1t away
in boxes weighing from one to fifty pounds.
Then send it by express or freight to its
destination. All the saline properties of
the sea are intact, and by adding the prop
er quantity of water to marine salt a bath
is obtained which contains, besides salt
Chloride OF sodium, the sulphate and chic,
ride of magnesia, the %sulphates of lime and
SUM and iodine.
But while we summon modern skill and
enterprise to our service we must remem-
Der that the beneficial effect of sea-bathing
ia not a modern or an individual discovery.
The salutary results of a plunge into the
surf is universally recognized, and its prac-
tice instructive where and when the at
mospherio conditions admit of it. Many
persons ind its influence over the physi,
cal and nervous system so healthful that
they consider it essential ts spend a few
weeks or a few days at the sea shore, even
ut great expense or great inconvenience, for
they thus hope to lay up q store of health
aud strength that will last for months
The record Of the seaside resorts of our
coasts for the past few years shows the
great and growing popularity of sea bath
ing. Modern chemistry Analysing the
properties OF sea water declare it tonic
aod remedial, a corrective of disease and a
Conservation of health.

Paper Car Wheels.

The paper Is strnw-board of rather fine
texture. 1t is received in the ordinary
broad sheets, differing in no particular from
those used for straw-board boxes or other
similar work. These sheets as they come
from the paper mill are square, and must
first Of all be cut to q circular pattern.
This is rapidly done on n large table with
4 knife hat is guided by a radial arm tina
wings freely over the surface Of the tablL
from a pivot at the center. A small disk
is also cut from the enter of the sheet TO
allow for the iron hub. Being thus reduced
% the required shape and dimensions, tho
PAPER must now be converted from q mass
If loose sheets into a compact, dense body,
capable of witbstanding the tremendous
crushing force to which II will be subjected
in the wheels. This is accomplished in the
following manner Ten sheets are pasted
together, one upon the othor, making n disk
Of about one-eighth of an inch thick.
Enough ofthese disks having been prepared
TO fill a powerful hydraulic press, they are
subjected to a pressure of ! $50 pounds to
the square inch. When removed the disks
are hung on poles in n steam-heated loft
and left six days to dry. Thicker disks 70
then made, each formed by FASTING togeth-
er two or three of those already finished
These are pressed and dried as before, an
the process is repeated until a block is built
four inches thick and of about the specific
gravity oflignum-vite. After each FASTING
and pressing six days are allowed for dry
ing, and when the block is complete it Il
left in a drying-room until thoroughly
seasoned. The next operation is that of
turning the paper blocks TO 1t the steel
wires and iron hubs. This is lone with
as much accuracy and in exactly the same
manner as If tho material worked on WAS
iron or wood. The circumference is turned
to a perfect circle of the precise diameter
required, a bed or recess is worked out for
the web of the tire to rest in, and the edges
sharply defined. The block is then painted
and Is ready for its place in the wheel.

Not so Green After All.

A chap from the rural districts stepped
into a musics store in the city of Providence,
and, after taking a fifteen minutes survey
of the contents, he stepped up to the oun
ter and asked the clerk if he had any new
music-"bran new, Just out?'
The clerk measured him with his eye
for n moment, and, thinking he was ignor-
ant as to music, and that anything would
be fresh to his customer that had been
issued since the days of "Rosin the Bow"
decided to palm off some old pieces which
had become n drug on the counter. So ho
took up THE Last Rose of Summer" and
said
yes, here is a piece that goes with a per
feet rush, and here is The Old Arm Chair
another iavorite. There is When This
Cruel War is Over which is the rage all
over the city
That will dew, replied Jonathan.
How much do you ask for the lot ?"
"One dollar returned the clerk.
"Waal, you may dew 'em up in n piece
of paper and lay EN- or the shelf"
The clerk obeyed, but Jonathan did not
pay for the music.
I'm going up town n piece" he said,
and if come back l will pay for that
music and take it but il / don't come back
you may light your pipe with The Last
Rose of Summer, sit down in The Old Arm
Chair and wait till This Cruel War is
Over"
Jonathan slid out OF the door, and the
clerk looked as though he had been sold.

The First Wheat.

The first wheat raised in the new world
was sow by Spaniards on the island of
Isabella in January, 1894, and on March
30 the ears were gathered. The foundation
Of the wheat harvest of Mexico is said to
have been three or four grains carefully
cultivated in 1880, and preserved by a slave
of Cortez. The crop of Quito was raised
by n Franciscan monk in front of tile con-
vent. Garceasso de In Nerga afirms that

Holland. 1t is probable that wheat was
sown in the Plymouth colony prior to 1929,
though we find no record ofit, and in 1929
wheat was ordered from England TO be
