Opening for Our Boys.

In glancing over the possible openings for boys, one is forced to admit that un- less lad had genius, perseverance, and a good, physical constitution, he will find the beginning of a professional life al most insurmOuntably difficult, if he be obliged from the start to depend upon his profession for living. So large is the competition, even in our own cOmpara- lively new country, and still more so in England and on the continent, that the in- ducements to enter the sO-called learned professions are financially very small
 Each year, thousands of young men are graduated from our universities and schools of learning, only a very small pro portion of whom are ever heard of after ward in the real contest of life. And il has become a notable fact that an adver- tisement for a man to fill any but man. ual position will bring a number of col lege graduates out of all proportion to the total applicants. American.

Concerning Florida Mosquitoes.

We have to give it up. The toughest musquito yarns come from down the river It is told of one of the crew of the steamer Rockledge, that after they go' into the inlet, when night came he went To sleep in a state-room, the window to
 which was protected by a screen. lie had scarcely fallen asleep when he was awakened by a sense of suffocatiOn-the mosquitoes had thrOnged the screen and stuck their heads into the meshes till they had excluded every particle of air He frantically kicked out the screen and now he does not know whether he would rather die of suffOcation or mnsquito bites. Another veracious statement from below is that young man went to work for the first time on his homestead, pro viding himself with a good sandhy net ting bar. The first night he pitched tent, hung his net. and went to bed For three days and nights he did not stir. The mus quitoes had so thickly covered his net on the outside that it was perfectly dark inside-he did not know when daylight came.-indian River lFla.) Sun

Why Lawyer. Are Excluded.

The reason why lawyers are excluded from membership in the Knights of La bor organization is given by a Philadel- phia member, who says; In the first place, the lawyers produce nothing. While that fact might not alone be suffi- cient Co keep them out, it is a principle of the order to gather within it's fold all who labor to produce. The strongest reason is that the law student, from the time he begins to read until admitted to the bar, and the lawyer, from his ad- mission tO his death, is taught that what ever is lawful Is right. That idea is so instilled into them that they believe it heart and soul. The lawyer could not make a good member, therefore, as we know that many things lawful are not right, and are very injurious to the work ingmen. Chicago Times.

The Reformation of Russia

TurgeniefT was philosopher who could see the various sources of his cOuntry's woes, and who trusted to the progress of events, the growth of intelligence, the steady development of justice, the united effort of calm, thoughtful individuals for their permanent extinction MonstrOus as he believed the government of Russia tO be, he had no idea that assassination or any violent means would rectify it. He felt sure that the revolution would come, not suddenly and through secret plotting and open blOOdshed, but by gradual means, by wholesome changes, by the working together of cause and effect.

Automatic Cork PulIers.

Time was when corkscrew and strong arm would pull a cork from an ordinary beer bottle. That was when sorks were put in by hand. Machinery was introduced for driving in the cork, and they were put in SO tight that frequently the bottle neck gave way before the stopper could be dislodged. About a year ago inventive genius was invoked to offset the difficulty, and today every saloon keeper in the city Is pcstered by the agents of a dozen different automatic safety cork pull CTS, ranging in price from e to S2O.-~P.

New Use for Instantaneous Photography.

aAn absolute dead heat is an impOssi- bility," says a turf writer, and he isn't far from wrong. For two or more horses tO rnake a dead heat means that their noses must strike an imaginary line pre- cisely at the same instant That judges are frequently compelled to call close finishes dead heats, is due to the fact that the human eye can not with absolute certainty always catch the exact relative positions of two or more horses whiZzing by, just at the proper instant IL is q habit to write "he won by a nose but when only a nose measures the distance, the eye can not.
 Various devices have been suggested and tried to positively distinguish the winner in close finish, but none have been completely successful
 It has been recently suggested that in- simultaneous photography be called in to settle the difficulty. The suggestion is good, and there. is little doubt about it's ultimate adoption by the enterprising as- sOciatiOns. Commercial Ga Zette.
