The Hottest.

One Of the hottest regions of the
earth is along the PERSON Gulf, where
little or no rain falls. At Bahrin the
arid shore has no fresh water. vet a
comparatively numerous population
contrives to live there, thanks to the
copious springs which burst forth from
the bottom of the sea. The fresh wat
er is go; by diving. The diver, sit
ting in his boat winds a great goat
skin bag around his left arm, the hand
grasping its mouth; then he takes in
his hand heavy stone to which is al
tached strong line, and, thus
equipped. he plunges in and quickly
reaches the bottom Instantly open
ing the bag over the strong jet of
fresh water, he springs up the ascend
ing current, at the same time closing
the bag, and is helped on board. The
stone is then hauled up, and the div
er, after taking breath, p.unges in
again. The source of these copious
submarine springs is thought to be in
the green hills of Osman, some 500 or
600 miles distant.

The Gulf Stream.

There is river in the ocean. In
the severest droughts it never fails,
and in the mightiest foods it never
overfows. It's banks and It's bottom
are of cold water, while It's current is
of warm The Gulf of Mexico is its
fountain, and its mouth is in the Arc,
tic seas. 1t is the Gulf Stream. There
is in the world no other so majestic a
flow of water. Its current is more
swift than the Mississippi or the ANA
zon, and its volume more than thous-
and times greater. lis waters, as far
as the Carolina coasts, are of indigo.
blue. These are SO distinctly marked
that the common sea-water can be
traced with the eye. Often one-half
the vessel may be perceived floating in
the Gulf Stream water, while the other
half is in the common water of the sea
so sharp is the line and the want of
affinity between these waters; and
such, too, the. reluctance, so to speak,
on the part of those of the Gulf Stream
to mingle with the common waters of
the sea. In addition to this, there is
another peculiar fact; the fishermen
on the coast of Norway are supplied
with wood from the tropics by the
Gulf Stream. Think of the Artic fish
ermen burning upon their hearths the
palms of dayti, the mahogony OF Hon
duras, and the precious woods of the
Amazon and the Orinoco.

American Newspapers in 1884.

From the edition of Messrs. Geo. P.
Rowell and Co.'S American Newspaper
Directory, now in press, it appears that
the newspapers and periodicals of all
kinds at present issued in the United
States and Canada reach grand total
of 49, ,4O2. This is net gain of precise
ly 1900 during the last twelve months
and exhibits an increase of 5,6lS over
the total number published just ten
years since. The increase in 1874 over
the total for 1873 was 493. During the
past year the dailies increased from
|, ,l3S to l ,254; the weeklies from 6,O62 to
10,02s; and the monthlies from 1,O91 to
l,499. The greatest increase is in the
Western States. Illinois, for instance,
now shows 600 papers in place of last
year total of 904, while Missouri issues
64 instead of 523 reported in 1888.
Other leading Western States also ex-
hibit great percentage of increase.
The total number of papers New York
tn State is 1923, against 1899 in 1883.
Canada has shared in tho general in

We defy any Democrat to give a clear
and explicit statement of the Democrat
10 position upon the tariff question.
Marion Independent.
A tariff. adjusted to the revenue
standard with a view of meeting the
necessary expenses of the government,
economically administered, and so adj
jnsted in its details az to do exact JUS
tce to all branches of industry -agri-
cultural, mechanical and manufacture
ing, without creating monopolies. The
Democratic position is adverse to the
idea of protectionists that tariff should
be adjusted In such a manner as to ex-
act money from labor and the great
srmy of consumers for,t the sole purpose
of benefiting a favored few. In short
1t opposes the policy of protection for
protection only. Delea0aye Herald.

washington's Mothers Grave.

Wsshington's father, named Angus
tine, with Mary, his wife, settled or
ginally in the County Of Westmore-
land, on the other bank Of the river, a
few miles below the present Freder-
iscksburg, moving later TO site
nearly opposite the location Of the
town. 1t was to this new home George
was brought when about six yeras old.
The lad figures in legendary local
lore as having thrown a stone across
the Rappahannock at an incredibly
early age. The fond parent who had
enticed George into the paths of truth
never cut a conspicuous figure, and
died young, leaving the care of the
boy to his wife. This was about all
he did leave, except coonskin cap
and mortgage on the farm.
Mr-. Washington, or Mother Wash
ington, as the natives called her. then
abandoned the old place, and passed
the days of her wldowhood in a samll
one-srory and attic frame that is still
standing on one of the principal streets,
just before you reach the outsklrts-a
battered and skaky concern, with a
handbook kitchen attachment In which
two chickens could hardly be cooked
without crowdiDg the accommodations.
Additions have since been made to
the original Louse, but the old shanty
ITSELF all its primitive quaintness, is
now occupied by Mr.. Noon and his
family, a Matchmaker of the town.
while the corner room, where Mother
Washington died, is now the frma-
ment from which Mrs. Moon sheds
her mild domestic light.
About two hundred yards to the
south of her old rookery stands the
most interesting house af the neighbor-
hood, and 1t explains the residence of
Mother Washington on the south side
of the river after her husbands death.
She had, among other treasures, a
daughter Elizabeth, better known as
Betty. on whom Col. Fielding Lewis
dropped his adoring and practical
gaze. The Colonel was an English
gentleman of culture and family, and
barring an inherited tendency to con-
sumption, which shelved him before
many years, seems to have been
most desirable cavalier of the old
school. He drew his English gold,
imported English architects and bricks,
and built the substantial mansion
which is now the home of Mr.. Will
liam Key Haword, of Baltimore, and
is still known as Kenmore House. Its
walks and drives are as lovely as ever,
and its spacious hall and dining room
elegant and Impressive.
Washington's mothers grave, be-
tween her old home and Kenmore
House, is surmounted by a pedestal,
without an inscription, and surrounded
by rank weeds. Just at its feet lies
PROSTATE shaft of undressed marble,
about two feet in length, meant for
the capital of the monument. The
storms of many years have swept over
it. the sunshines of many sum mers
have rested their hopeful rays upon its
surface, but no influence IN Virginia
has been found strong enough to raise
it from its degraded resting place and
plant it on the orphaned base. The
grounds are still unkept, overrun with
| weeds and thistles, surrounded with a
cheap wire fencing and furnished, for
the benefit of visitors, with tumble
! down wooden stlle.

The average farmer does to much
work. This may SOUND strange, and
you may doubt it, yet 1t is none the
less true. Less work and more plan.
ming will make him richer, healthier
and happier. 1t is folly for any man
to attempt to work fourteen or sixteen
hours day without expecting to so
enfeeble and break down his constitu-
tion that he will be unable to accom-
plish as much In two days as he ought
to do in one of reasonable length,
when full of energy and vitality.
Never let your work drive you, but
keep yourself in condition to drive
your work. This can be best done by
carefully planning all the details, and
time spent in this manu- al work of the
farm.

The prevailing opinion regarding the
girl of the period is unjust. A few de-
