w. AuTTLE WHILE.

A little while, o heart, little whilel
A little while to suffer and be strong.
A little while the clamorous mad
throng
OF hungry human vultures to beguile,
A little while o trembling lips to smieg
A little while to play your part;
A little while to veil this weary heart,
To sing, to laugh, to jest little while.
A little while and sunsets molten gold,
Yon shining length of river, and the fair,
Green, tender tints the spring-decked val
valleys wear,
This darkened vision shall no more be-
hold,
A little while, o soul, to do and bear,
A little while for penance and for prayer.

The Kentuclzian Explains the Matter.
In Philadelphia there are %. 900 more

The Kentuelzian Explains the Matter.
I'm Philadelphia there are $4,000 more
women than men. In Massachusetts
there is $4,000 majority, and a recent es-
innate shows that in Europe the women
exceed the males by more than 4, 800, 900.
Why is this the case?" 1 asked of social
philosopher.
THE men are killed, off by wars and
accidents, suppose" he replied.
"Why is it, them" 1 asked, that Ken
lucky, which has as many men killed as
any state, has a fair preponderance of
males?"
"Oh, that is easily explained" he re-
piled. Kentucky women are so beauti-
full and charming that the men from
other states come and carry them away
as soon as they are grown. "-Louisville

sudden deaths from Mental Anxiety.

There is no treatment which will pre-
vent this class of sudden deaths, and
physicians are powsrless to avert its on
set. All they can do is to advise calm,
unexciting mode of life, with freedom
from worry and anxiety. Such advice
it very easy TO give but, as difficult to fol-
low as would be suggestion that it is
not advisable to die at any given tims.-

cuItivating oyster beds in olipa,

The Chinese cultivate oyster beds most
successfully. They fasten old oyster
shells to bamboo splints, which they then
stick in mud flats swept by strong tidal
currents, The shells are supposed to at
tract the oyster spat, which adheres to
them and shortly develop into tiny oys-
tiers. They the bamboos are transplanted
to other flats and the crop grows rap
idly.-Chicago Herald.

Experiments to determine the relative
action of coffee and alcohol show that
while alcohol increases the production OF
heat it really lowers the bodily tempera-

the opposite effect, and thus, if given IN

the reduction of temperature.-Chicago

Physical Appearance of Gen. Joseph e.



There is much of the physical man yet
left of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. He is
almost six feet in height, weighs about
$50 or 100 pounds, is supple and quick as
boy. His nerves are considerably
shattered, however, as those of a man
above go might be naturally. He wears
full, short beard, which is almost
snowy white, as is also his hair, which
is little long and straight. His head is
bald on top and half way down the
back. He has a quick, piercing, little,
light eye, and there is a fullness about
his eye which phrenologists say denotes
adeptness at study. The general was
dressed in a plain, cut-away coat. 1t is
said he never uses tobacco, and is not
given to excuses of any kind. His fiorid
face indicates health.
Gen. Johnston is a good-natured and
intelligent man, is very companionable
and intensely popular. It developed
during his investigation that he was an
electrician during his early life, but he
explained that his knowledge of the
science was now of no more use than
that of DR. Franklin's, because it was too
antiquated. He evinced a very keen
memory and a wide knowledge of gen
era affairs. His education must have
been thorough. Gen. Johnston is one of
those who prizes his honor, and who
would fight a regiment if his integrity
was questioned. He was always con-
sidered among the most loyal men of the
south, and is intensely popular among
southern people, who say he is the soul
of honor.-W Washington Cor. Chicago

The Civilization OF Ancient Mexico.
According to Mr.. d. a. Wells, in The
Popular Science Monthly, ancient Mex
leo never had any very large cities. The
inhabitants had no domestic animals, no
beasts of burden, no means of trans
portation. They were far inferior in civ
ilization to the Toltecs, living to the
southwark. The Mexico of to-day has
not made any great strides. Mr.. Wells
says: ut is one of the very poorest and
most wretched OF all countries, and is
not likely under any circumstances to de-
velop into a great, civilized, rich and
powerful nation" The fertile land con-
sists of marrow strip along either ocean.
The interior is high table land, from
5000 to 1000 feet above the level of the
sea. There is no naVigable river of inn
portance, and the country at large is as
arid as Arabia. There are hundreds of
square miles of unexplored territory, and
savage tribes of Indians that remain in
dependent of the government and with
out contact with the whites. AS to
precious metals, they have been greatly
overestimated.
This is an uninviting picture, but Mr..
Wells writes with the air of man who
is stating facts. Before our capitalists
build any more railroads in Mexico they
will do well to investigate these state
ments.-Atlanta Constitution.
