What seems to be a really useful ap-
piiance has recently been added to the

type of life-buOy. Inside the buoy there

but when the buoy is cast upon the water

duces a sort of a calm for q considerable
distance around the person to whom the

The composition and properties OF the

When examined under the microscope

destitute alike of very bright and dark

divisions of the m~icrometer, extending
on the red side to the center ct the inter
val separating the A and b rays of the

intensity diminishes the red and orange
disappear altogether, the spectrum being
then reduced 10 the green, with q little

Inmates Of Our AlmshOuses.

lOCta!e lhahct, Ia A1idntCl q
The popular impression about the pau
per class is a queer mixture of indifter.
ence and sentimental pity. While not
one iii a thousand has ever taken the
pains to see the inside of an almshouse,
there is yet a prevalent idea that aims
houses. for the most part, shelter the un-
happy and guiltless poor, whom unmer-
ciiui disaster has followed fast and fol-
lowed faster until it has chased them to
this last refuge,-peOple who have come
from ~vine-covered cottages, or tidy rooms
up one flight of stairs in tenement houses,
wish a big Bible on the table and n pot
Of flowers in the window, or even from
luxurious homes desolaeed by CONNER
cial panics.
As a matter of fact, the great majority
of American indoor paupers belong u
what are called the lowest classes, and
seek the a%lmshouse not because of unmer-
cifal disaster, but because of very com.
mon vices. Between half and two thirds
of them are of foreign birth.
ANY Olc WHO HIS NlclbCQ Iudhs dllhs-
houses or talked with the men who know
most of paupers will recognize the same
old story. "Paupers," said a plain-spoken
almshouse keeper to a convention ofPenn-
s%ylvania directors of the poor,--"2at-
pers, though not criminals, are, so far
as my knowledge extends, largely from
the lower classes of society most of them
being ignorant, and many of them pos
sessed of all the low and mean instincts
Of human nature, with scarcely y redeem
ing quality" :
The writer once asked the steward Of
a large city almshouse if he had many
persons come to him who had formerly
been prosperous, and had, through dis
ease or some other cause not their W
fault, been reduced to seek public help.
He said, Never" then added, well,
yes there was one man: he had seven
horses, and he was taken sick, and sold
one horse after another. And there was
another man who was said 10 have had
considerable property, but he drank"
/ asked him if he had many applicants
who had been decent, industrious, labor
ing people and had come there from
any other cause than disease or old age.
He answered emphatically, Not one"
This man spoke from an experience of
nineteen years.
Probably it is a liberal estimate to put
down one tenth of the paupers as people
deserving of sympathy; the other nine
fenths are in the almshouse because they
have not wit enough or energy enough to
get into prison. Such people do not have
a hard life in the almshouses. The squal-
or does not disturb men and women VINO
have known nothing else the immortality
ia temptation! and even in the worst
kept houses there is usually plenty to eai
end little TO do.
