A point in etiquette recently decided a
German railroad train attempted TO cat a
lunch while on the journey. While putting
Il piece of bologna sausage in hiJ mouth
the train stopped suddenly, causing his
check 10 be badly cut on the edge of his
knife. which he was using. The man sued
the company for damages, but his claim
was not sustained, on the ground that it is
n breach of etiquette to eat with knife.
The consumption of wool in the United
States for 1882 is put at about 366 0O0, 900
pounds, or about 100000 pounds more
than The previous year. The estimated
product of wool in the United States for
1882 was about 800. 100000 pounds, being
an increase of about 100000 over the
previous year. The increased product in
Texas and the territories has been about

off has been about 350.000 pounds; while
at other points there has been slight
increase over 1881.
SHAKING.-If you shake up basket of
fruit or of gravel the small portions will
60 toward the bottom, the larger ones will
come toward the top. This is the order
of nature. There is no way of evading
it. And the same order prevails in the
basket Of human life. The world shak
ing will send the small characters down
ward and bring the larger ones toward
the top. The larger ones are not to blame
for this, the smaller ones have no right to
complain of it. 1t is the shaking that
does the business.

1t is very common thing for one lady
to remark to another,-"What beautiful
teeth Mrs. - has They must be
false" This is certainly high compi-
ment for art and cruel slur upon nature
or our abuse of nature. Here is an
item which tells how these pearly products
are manufactured:
In the process of manufacture silax and
feldspar in their crude state are submitted
to red heat, and then suddenly throwp
into cold water, the effect being to render
them more easily pulverized. Having
been ground very fine in water, and the
water evaporated, the two materials men
toned are dried and sifted. The kaolin
is washed free from impurities. These
materials, with feldspar, sponge, platina,
and tlux in proper proportion for the
enamel, are mixed with water, and work
ed into masses resembling putty. This
done, tho unbaked porcelain masses are
ready for the moulding room, The models
are in two pieces, and are made of brass,
one half of the teeth or sections being on
either side. The coloring materials are
first placed in the exact position and
quantity required, and the body of the
tooth and the gum is inserted in Jumps
corresponding to the size of the teeth
The molds are then closed, and they are
dried by q slow heat. When perfectly
dry they are taken out and sent to the
trimmers' room. The trimmers remove
imperfections, and send them in trays OF
fire clay 10 the furnace, where having
remained for twenty minutes, they are
complete.

INSTINCTS OF THE DEER.-Where the
deer is much hunted his ears become ex-
ceedingly acute. Mr.. Van Dyke has seen
one spring from his bed and run away at
race horse speed before he was within 200
yards of the animal, although he had not
touched single bush or twig in approach
ing the game, and although he was pos
tive that a man could not at 90 yards dis.
ance have heard the soft tread of mecca
sins on the light snow. Deer, too, with in =
tuitive correctness, are able to measure the
distance and character of sounds. They
will often lie all day within hearing of the
woodman's axe, and the shorts of the
teamster. AS a rule, too, the crash of the
squirrels jump, the roar of thunder, the
swapping of trees with frost, their creaking
or falling in the wind does not alarm
them in the least. Yet the faintest press
ure Of the leaves under the hunters
moccasin may instantly send them flying.
A deer can also see n long way. On one
occasion Mr.. Van Dyke saw one watching
brother sportsman mile away, whose
motions he could hardly himself make
out. 1t is true that for recognizing an

A Coal MINE SHAFT. "A mile or two
from Pottsville, says a newspaper cores
pondent, is the chief coal shaft of this
region, owned by the Philadelphia and
Reading coal and iron company, and
named tho Pottsville shaft Though
opened only few years ago, it is famous
throughout this whole country for the
completeness of its machinery, its extra
ordinary depth, and the light shed by ii
on the shape and direction of the strata
below. The perpendicular depth of the
shaft is 1875 feet-as | am told, the deep
est coal mine on the continent. From It's
vast depths, almost third of n mile down,
two hundred cars holding about four tons
each ARE lifted each day. The cars are
run upon a platform and then the whole
weight of say six tons hoisted at speed
that makes the head swim. The time
occupied in lifting full car and in letting
down an empty one through distance of
about one third of mile is u little more
than minute and a quarter A few fig
ures will show that the cars pass up and
down at the rate of about u mile in four
minutes, fifteen miles an hour, or say, the
ordinary velocity of IL freight train on n
uihSo tiNth. iotduuiut, ou oho vi tho
levels, 1000 feet down, the cars "snap''
past, upward and down, with speed so
great that the human eye scarcely sees
them pass.
The Belgian engine which does this
lifting is beautiful piece of mechanism,
with its drum twenty feet in diameter, and
its wire rope which has thickness of two
inches, coiled around center of hemp
that allows nicer adjustment of the
wires when stretched by use. The dra-
matte figure of the engine room Is the
engineer, man picked for his skill, his
steadiness and sobriety. Day after day
throughout the year the fate of every
muer hangs on his nerve and steadfast
attention to duty.
Monotony must not make him careless,
the strain of responsibility must not weary
him; his eye must be quick for the signals
for down in the mine, his hand must be
true to its cunning in "slowing up' and
"starting' on each of which depends his
costly machinery, or, it may be, precious
lives. Not often are the idea and the
ideal of duty more vsibly incarnated than
in this silent thoughtful man, his hand on
the lever, his restless eye on the signals
or his machinery, and his whole life of
seemingly dull routine filled with care and
accountability.

DYsPEPsIA.-I wish to convince your
readers Of the fallacy of taking drugs for
the cure of dyspepsia. have had life
long experience with that complaint
having inherited it from my father.
Although not II physician myself, yet
think | can safely say without fear of
successful contradiction that it is disease
that never can be permanently cured, so
but what ifthe same causes which produce
it at first are brought to bear it will be
produced again more readily than it was
the first time.
stomach. and the only office and duty OF
the stomach is to digest the food. Now if
the stomach is already weakened in
consequence of being overloaded over
taxed, more asked of it than it is able TO
perform, it is suicidal folly to ask the
poor weak organs to try to digest drugs,
which are wholly indigestible, and more
or less poisonous. My view of it is in
dyspepsia the stomach wants rest, ard it
never can rest so long as we keep swal.

have an old, tired horse, that is most

so simple as to require him to perform a
certain mount of labor every day, when
the only thing he needs is to desist from

variety of ways, and is, as old DIR. Chase
says, a "nany headed monster" There
are scarcely two persons that have it
exactly alike. have been so weak,
years ago, that 1 could not walk half Il
mile. My experience is, as general
rule. that one should eat very moderately
at first of such kinds of food as agrees
with him, and as will OF itself keep the
bowels open and loose. Take no drugs,
no cathartics. Take all the exercise in
the open air that is possible to take with

not the stomach, nor the stomach The
person. Yet, if a man gets excessively
weary, it will weaken the stomach, but Il
moderate amount of outdoor exercise will
create an appetite and excite the flow of

serve to assist it in digesting food. The
same kind of food does not agree alike
with all dyspeplics. What is good for
one is poison to another.-1oledo Blade.

The Rev. Robert Collyer on recent
Sunday preached sermon on How to be
young at eighty" He told his hearers of
his own childhood years in tiny white
washed cottage. where he was fed on
oatmeal and milk, with oat bread and
butter once week, and white potatoes
and meat now and then. This laid the
foundations; n life of temperance, good
humor and virtue has done the rest, and
DR.. Collyer at 60 finds himself hale and
hearty, never having been sick q day in
his life. He drew this pretty picture of
his rural home:
"a cottage of two rooms and an attic
looking right into the eye of the sun and
away toward the great purple moors. A
bit of green sward before the door, a plum
tree and clump of roses. The walls of

SMOOTH AND RoUGH.-The old proverb
says that every burden we have to carry
Offers two handles-the one smooth and
easy to grasp, the other rough and hard
to hold.
One man goes through life taking
things by the rough handle, and he has a
hard time all the way. He draws tight
harness and it chafes wherever it touches
him. He carries heavy load, and he
finds it not worth keeping when he gets it
home. He spends more strength upon
the fret and wear of work than upon the
work itself. He is like disorganized
old mill that makes great noise over
small grist, because it grinds itself more
than it grnds the grain.
Another man carries the same weight,
does the same work, and finds it easy,
because he takes everything by the smooth
handle. And so it comes to pass that one
man sighs and weeps, and that another
man whistles and sings on the same road

Say what you will, economy is one of
the best home virtues. and one which is
everywhe' needed. No matter if persons
are rich or have large incomes, they
should be economical. To wsste is wicked.
There are better ways to spend money and
goods than waste them. 1t is the poorest
use they can be put to. Many people
would be economical if they knew how.
1t is an art to practice economy. To do
it well, one must know the art. All can
have it if they will. 1t is an arithmetical
art. 1t is the conclusion of numbers. All
must live and ought to live well, but how
to live at the least expense is the work of
figures to tell. We must count the WAYS
and means and compare them. Many
people use expensive articles of food and
dress when cheaper ones would be in
every way better and more servicable.
Especially in regulating the table expenses
is there want of economy. A little useful
information concerning the qualities OF
food, the amount and kind OF nutritious
matter they contain, the wants of the
human system and the best ways of cook .
ing, would often save fully one.third, and
in many instances, half the expense. A
wise economy In table expenses is favor
able to health, and In this way saves time,
drugs, expense and doctor bills. strength,
flesh and happiness. The whole system
of greasing and preparing, and what IL
called enriching food, is expensive,
unhealthy and useless. Fat, oil, tallow
and oleaginous substances can be put to a
better use than greasing food and diseasing
the digestive economy,

DEATH OF MAN 10 YEARS OLD.-A
we'll authenticated case of man living
10 years, was brought to notice in New
York-on the 23d, the person being Bernard
Doran, whose death was reported at the
bureau of vital statistics. Doran was born
in the county Tyrone, Ireland. on January
7. 1873. His children have possession OF
his baptismal certificate. which bears the
date Of January 1s, 1878. His father was
Thomas Francis Doran, farmer. Doran
came to this country in 1885, and for six
years worked as a laborer. On October
10, 1915, he was appointed by the public
schools society janitor of the public
schools in the fourteenth ward, and since
that time has continually held the same
office under the city government. He
was married twice, and since the death
of his second wife in 1861 has lived with
his son Barney, who is 60 years of age.
The eldest daughter of his first wife is
now living in Cincinnati, and is nearly
90 years old. BY his second wife he had
three sons and daughter. His youngest
son, John, is now Sc years of age. His
death was due to capillary bronchitis.

object at rest, the eyes of deer are about
as dull as those of dog. If unalarmod he
will not distinguish man from a stump
on open ground If the man is seated and
perfectly motionless. On the other hand,
TO catch motion deer's eyes are very
quick and the fact that he is generally at
rest while the hunter is moving gives him
an immense advantage. Even the slow
lifting of your head over ridge. or the
slow dragging of your limbs over the
trunks of trees or the slow advance of
your creeping body along the ground is
n most instantly detected, unless the
motion happens to be while they have
their heads down, feeding or walking.

An old man is beautiful object in his
own place, in the midst of circle of
Young people, going down in various
gradations to infancy and all looking up
to the patriarch with filial reverence,
keeping him warm with their own burning
youth; giving him the freshness of their
thought and feeling, with such natural
influx that it seems as if it grew within
his heart; while on them he reacts with
an influence that sobers, tempers and
keeps them down. His wisdom, verv
probably, is of no great account-he
cannot fit to any new state of things; but,
nevertheless, it works its effect. In such
situation, the old man is kind and genial,
mellow more gentle and generous and
wider minded than ever before. But, if
left to himself, or wholly to the society OF
his contemporaries, the ice gathers around
his heart, hope grows torpid, his love
having nothing of his own blood to
develop t-grows cold; he becomes
selfish, when he has nothing in the pres
ent or the future worth caring about in
himself; so that instead of beautiful
object, he is an ugly one, little, mean and
torpid. suppose one chief reason to he
that, unless he has his own race about
him he doubts Of anybody's love, he feels
himself stranger in tho world and so

MOTIiER'S WAY.

Oft within our little cottage,
As the shad Dws gently fall,
While the sunlight touches softly
One sweet face upon the wall,
Do we gather close together,
And in hushed and tender tone
Ask each other for forgiveness,
For the wrong that each has done.
Should you wonder at the custom,
At the ending of the day,
Eye and voice would quickly answer,
at was once our mothers way"
If our home be bright and CHEEKY.
If 1t hold welcome true,
Opening wide its door of greeting
To the many. not the few;
II we share our Fathers bounty
With the needy day by day,
'Tis because our hearts remember
This was ever mothers way.
Sometimes when our hearts grow weary,
Or our tasks seem very long,
When our burdens look too heavy,
And we deem til G right ali wrong.
Then we gain new, fresh courage,
As we rise to proudly say:
"Let us do our duty bravely,
That wa7 our dear mothers way"
Thus We keep her memory precious,
While we never cease to pray
That, at last, when lengthening shadows
Mock the evening of our day.
They may fiud us calmly waiting
To 20 home our mothers way.
