How Will it End I?

All over the world young men are
coming to the fore, but in no country so
rapidly rs in America, and in no city OF
the world to such an extent as in New
York. In our great metropolis, brains,
vigor, dash and fresh blood are always
wanted. Young men control New York.
They are supreme. Old fogies are not
wanted. In an ideal sort of way gray
heads are respected, but in every day life
they are showed aside. Among a hun.
dred clerks at work in the Park Bank
only three or four have passed their
thirty-ff year. All the leading lines
of business and all the professions are
controlled by young men. They do
more work and do it quicker than the
steady old fellows who have been at
work all their lives. Perhaps the objec-
ton will be urged that they lack the
judgment of their elders. Judgment!
Who cares for judgment? Do we not
run everything on the hit or miss, heads
or tails plan? Judgment won't take the
risks ventured by hot young blood. The
men who strike big thing these days
are the reckless, devil.may- care fellows,
who would stake an empire on the haz.
ard of the die. If they win, the world
hears from them. If they lose, the ready
revolver is ready, and the world soon
forgets them. It is fast age. Hurry is
the watchword. To-day is with us ; to.
morrow may never come. Slow men
trained in the habits of the past genera.
tion cannot accommodate themselves to
these ideas, and they drop out or are
crowded out of the procession. The
wear and tear of these hard.working,
rapid youngsters is fearful. The average
business man in New York takes twenty
drinks of whisky day and smokes ff.
teen cigars. Nobody can stand this.
The young New Workers don't stand it.
They go down in regiments and squares.
But, like the old guard, they die, but
never surrender. IF a man pulls through
it all he is old at the age of forty and
retires to take permanent rest. One
result of this unnatural life is the pro.
duction of a race of pigmies. New York
is famous for its young men of small
stature and light weight. This comes
from excess of all kinds. It is not so
with the young women. The girls who
do not smoke, drink and dissipate, are
large and we'll built, bright.eyed and
rosy.cheeked. They will have to take
husbands from the country. The spider
legged dudes around them are not fit for
their mates. If we escape deluge or
revolution the next generation will be
gauzy one, sort of feeting show, as it
Were.-AtLnntn Constitution.

Solar Eclipses.

The eclipses of the sun are caused by
the moons passing between the earth
and the sun. If the two bodies followed
the same trach in the heavens there
would be an eclipse every new moon, but
as the orbits are inclined the moon, but
generally passes above or below the sun,
and there is no eclipse. Occasionally
the sun is near one of the moons nodes
the points where the planes of the orbits
intersect-when it passes, and then an
eclipse occurs. If the sun and moon
were always at the same position with
regard to the earth aud always the same
distance from it, the eclipses would al
ways be the same size. But as these
conditions vary, so do the appearances of
the eclipse. For instance, let us suppose
that at the time of an eclipse the center
of the moon happens to pass directly
over the center Of the sun. If the moon
is near the point in her orbit which is
at the least distance from the earth her
apparant diameter will exceed that of
the sun, and the latter will be quite hid
den from view, and we have what is
known as total eclipse. Of course,
even in this case the eclipse will only
appear total to the observer near theline
Joining the centers of tho sun and moon.
If, however, the three bodies occupy SIM
liar position but the distance between the
earth and moon is greater, the whole of
the sun in not covered by the moon,
however, does not pass certainly over the
sun it can only hide part of the latter
on one side or the other, and the eclipse
is said to be partial. AS the moons
orbit is quite eliptical the distance Of
that body from the earth varies greatly.
It's astdistance is 221 900 miles, its great
est 259, 600 miles.

A Thought for "Our Girls.o

"My hands are so stiff I can hardly
holda pen," said farmer Wilbur, as he sat
down to figure out some accounts that
were getting behind hand.
"Can't I help you, father?" said Lucy,
laying down her bright crochet work. II
shall be glad to do so, if you will explain
what you want"
"Well, shouldn't wonder if you could,
Lucy" he said refectively. "Pretty
good at figures are you not?"
"It would be sad if I did not know
something of them, after going twice
throgh the arithmetic" said Lucy.
"Well, I can show you in five minutes
what I have to do, and it'll be wonder,
full help if you can do it for me-"
"I never was master hand at accounts
in my best days, and it does not grow any
easier since I put on my spectacIes."
Very patiently did the helpful daugh'
ter plod through the long lines of figures,
leaving the gay worsted to be idle all the
evening, though she was in such haste TO
finish her scarf 1t vas reward enough
to see her tired father, who had been
toiling hard all day for herself and dear
ones, sitting so cozily in his easy chair,
enjoying his weekly paper.
The clock struck niue before her task
was over, but the hearty-"Thank you
daughter, thousands time," took away
all sense of weariness.
"It's rather looking up, where man
can have such an amanuensis," said the
farmer. ut is not every farmer that can
afford it."
"Not every farmers daughter that is
capable of making one," said the mother,
with little pardonable maternal pride.
"Nor every one that would be willing,
if able," said Mr.. Wilbur, which last
was sad truth. How many daughters
might be of use to their father in this and
many other ways, who never think of
tightening care or labor! If asked to
perform some little service, it is done at
best with reluctant step and unwilling
air that robs it of all sunshine and all
claim to gratitude.
Girls, help your father. Give him a
cheerful home to rest in when evening
comes, and do not worry his life away by
fretting because he cannot afford you all
the luIuries you covet Children exert
as great an influence on their parents, as
parents do on their children.-Our Sun.
