"A Calculation Which Exhibits Startling

I Few people ever stop to count the
cost OF luxuries. If they should they
might sometimes hesitate in their ex-
penditures. A wealthy octogenarian of
Hartford, who has indulged in smoking
during all his life, or at least during all
his manhood years, has made an esti-
mate. based upon data kept, as to the
cost OF his cigars for sixty-seyen years.
lie knows the amount he has expended.
and calculating the sum invested in
cigars every six months, aud placing it
at compound interest at eight per cent,
on the basis of the savings bank caleu-
lations, he finds that the total sum now.
amounts to 5000, 900.
Ii all smokers of the woesl would
keep an account of the cost of this lux
ury, and calculate their investments in
cigars and tobacco, with compound in
terest added, they would be astonished
at the sums wasted by them in smoke.
The large sum found by the gentleman
who had smoked for sixty-seven years
was of course greatly increased in the
iooe eHontys anu especially III the last
ten years, as money compounded every
six months at the rate of six per cent.
doubles in little over ten years.
We frequently hear of incorporate
persons drinking up the value of farm
or other property. But it is not often
that such fortune as 900, 900 is con-
sumed in smoke by one person. If this
Hartford gentleman is not an exception

smoking is simply enormous

OF its peace and dignity; but what time
OF mans years is more splendid and
imposing than the tranquil old age Of a
life which has widened as it length

The ordinary life of man seems to b.
deprived and defrauded, compared with
these lives to which wisdom and length
of days were given. The full century
of existence which Sir Moses Monte
foire filled with beneficent activities is
not too long to live. Indeed, instead
of regarding lives SO long as something
abnormal and extraordinary, they
ought perhaps to be regarded as COM
ing nearer to the full measure and best
rule of existence, while the lives of
most men are shortened and cut off
before their real maturity. Old age
has been and is too much regarded as
but the lees of life. unlovable, squalid
and pitiable, as the Greeks were always
bewailing it to be. Men want to live
long, but hate old age. The grand
secular life which ended at Ramsgate
the other day, would serve to teach the
thoughtless and the foolish how noble
and desirable is an old age of activity
and wisdom. Men at the longest do
not get so much of life that they can
afford to neglect even the smallest part
of it. And in view of such lives as that

Origin of a Common Custom.

The following account of the origin
of the custom of tolling the bell on
boats passing the tomb of Washington
was given at meeting of the Wash
ington Literary Society by DIR. Toner:
.This token of regard, it is said, or
iginated on a French merchant vessel
which had been to Alexandria for a
cargo, and going down the river after
General Washington's death, but be-
fore bis interment placed its colors at
half-mast and tolled it's bell continu-
ously while passing the house of
mourning. This special testimony of
respect impressed every person as be-
coming and appropriate, and it was at
once taken up and practiced by all
river crafts. Ever since then the bell
is tolled on vessels of every character
and nation which pass the tomb of
Washington. ltmay, therefore be claim
ed to have grown into custom of i'm
pressive reverential respect, observed
by all vessels sailing up and down the
Potomac River.

MARBLES BY THE MILLIONS
How the Toy-Makers Of Germany Prosper
When Our Boys ssFen-Dubs"

How the Makers of Germany Prosper
When Our Boys ssFen-Dubs!"
A few days ago, at the office of the
custom surveyor, Minute reporter
picked up an item which excited his
curiosity. He was told that Charles
Mayer & Co. paid about $3.50 duty on
marbles imported from Germany.
IAN invoice of marbles said the re-
porter, ION which the duty amounts
to that much, certainly must contain
enough of these playthings to keep all
the boys in the United States busy for
some time.''
WELL" said Mr.. Mueller, Deput
Custom-house Surveyor, ''you can
count for yourself. The invoice con-
sists of sixty cases. each case contain
ing 1000 gross Of marbles.
Taking in consideration the differ
ence in the size of the marbles, and
that each case was said to contain 125. :
900 marbles, this would make the en-
tire invoice consist of about 5000. 900,
or enough to give each school boy in
the United States a marble or two.
But as the firm referred to is not sup
posed to control the entire trade in
the United States, the boys are entitled
to a more liberal supply. Ii the
stock just imported were held
for the Indianapolis boys. division
would result in each boy getting about
75O marbles. 1t is not probable, how
ever, that this supply would last much

SHOEING HORSES.
The Practice Permissible Under Excep-
tiOnal Circumstances.

The Practice Permissible Under Excep-
tiOnal Circumstances.
Is the shoeing Of horses necessary?
Undoubtedly it is, under certain cir
cumstances, as for instance with horses
used constantly on granite pavements
in the cities, or on macadamized or
gravel roads. But horses that are not
in constant use upon such streets, we
believe are better not shod at all, than
shod as they are now.
To shoe farm horses and keep them
shod as is often done, seems to us to be
the height of folly. To put heavy
shoes on colt as soon as he is put into
the harness is to take the steps neces-
sary to prevent his feet from becoming
toughened. Of course if put to work
on the road and kept there barefooted,
he will get foot sore; but if gradually
worked in, his feet will become accus-
toned even to the hard road and suffer
no inconvenience from constant work
on it. A horse with naturally defect
i've feet must be shod, just as child
having weak ankles must wear ankle
braces; but to say that horses generally
should wear shoes is about as sensible
as to say all children ought to wear
ankle braces.
The only reasonable excuse for shoe.
ing country horses at all is to prevent
their slipping in the winter If horse
has been accustomed to 90 without
shoes he will be found much less liable
to slip on icy ground than one that has
always worn shoes. There are times
when the ground is so covered with ice
and sleet that horse could not stand
if unshod, but the time lost by allow
ing horses to remain idle at such times
would not be much worse than that
lost by getting horses calked from be-
ing rough shod. When it is necessary
to shoe a horse, instead of putting on
the customary heavy shoe with long,
sharp toe and heel calks. it would be
much better if much lighter one be
used, having only small toe caIk to
assist the horse in holding his footing
while drawing load. A fortune
awaits the inventor who will devise
horse shoe from some tough bnt flexi-
BILE material, and which can be easily
attached or removed from the foot as
desired. Much, of the injury done to
horses feet by the ordinary shoe is due
to allowing it to remain on too long,
the horse owner forgetting that the
hoof is always growing, and the rim OF
it being bound by the infexible iron
band the hoof can not grow in the proper
shape. e.-Rnral Worsd.
