The tobacconists have discovered IL new

MES. They are selling the pretty, though
often questionable, calendars gotten out
by the wholesalers as advertisements.
Tho wholesalers get them up TO give one
to each storekeeper, and even then the
cost of some is very great, though few are
printed, for the work is us good rs money
will buy. But they dare not refuse the

When passing over Il bridge Of my size
in Ireland the wayfarcr invariably raises
his hat or utters some word of blessing or
prayer for the builder of the bridge. 1t
is considered unfortunate Oh n May morn
ing for n farmer or his wife to meet n
hare, as under UGH circumstances ''puss''
is said TO take the milk from the COWS.
Just at present, when evictions are in
full swing, it may help to illustrate the
popular sentiment by recalling the custom
of cursing known rs THE Fire of Stones"
The aggrieved person collects MS many
small powders as will fill the principal
hearth of the holding he is compelled to
surrender. These he piles in the manner
of turf sods arranged for firing and then,
Rneeling down, prays that until that heap
burns may every kind of sweat, bad luck
and misfortune attend the landlord IL
his family to untold generations. Rising,
he takes the stones in armfuls and hurls
them here and there, in loch, pool, bog
hole or stream, so that by no possibility
could the collection be recovered.
Certain trades and avocations arc held
in disrepute, but thinkers come in for more
thai ordinary dislike. The reason al
legged is that when the blacksmith was
ordered to make nails for the cross he re-
fused, but the tinker made them, and
therefore Christ condemned him and all
his race to be wanderers and never to have
n roof of their own to cover them to the
worlds end.
1t is unlucky to take n cat with you
when removing. In consequence of this
belief cats often suffer terribly. 1t is IN
lucky to meet q barking dog or n bare
footed woman early in the morning. II,
in addition, the woman should be red
headed, you must turn back in haste, lest
some evil thing come upon you. 1t is
lucky for n dog to come into the house the
first thing in the morning.

sW@ Rev. Charles F. Thwing has a
paper in the November number of Har-
per's Magazine giving the results of his
Investigations in regard to reform schools
and young criminals. The facts as set
forth by Mr. Thwing will command atten-
ton. The inference to be drawn from
them is that the reform schools are not all
they should be. Statistics are adduced
showing that the influence of these schools
in impressng evil habits upon certain
class of boys is very strong. In an ex-
animation of the convicts of the prisons
of New York, which was ordered by the
Prison Association of the State in 1875, it
was found that of the inmates of the Sing
Sing Penitentiary 22.Sl per cent had been
"refuge" boys, and of these SO per cent
were habitual criminals. 1t is claimed
that in the reform schools the boys learn
the ways of crime from each other, so
that even the purest are often debased
and transformed into real criminals. This
is serious charge to make against our
relormatories, and will bear further ex-
| animation.

Why some Lakes are Salt.

The cause of tie saltness of some Amer
lean lakes, says Popular Science Monthly
for July, is too patent to require many
words of explanation. It is probable that
when the continents were raised from the
sea the lake basins had been already
formed, and came up, therefore, brimful of
water. In the northern and eastern part
of the continent, where the supply from
rain and snowfall exceeds the loss by
evaporation, the salt being continuously
carried away through their outlets, has be-
come so diluted as TO be an imperceptible
quantity. In arid regions, as the Pacific
slope and the country around the Caspian,
where the evaporation was in excess of the
supply, the water level of the lakes con-
tinuously sunk, until, on account of the d.
minished extent of surface, the equilibri um
of loss and gain was attained. Hence the
exceeding saltness of Great Salt Lake, the
Dead Sea, etc. For like reason the wa
ter OF the Mediterranean contains more
salt relatively than that of the Ocean.
Evaporation exceeding the supplies from
the rivers and rainfall, it requires a con,
slant current through the Strait of Gibral.
tar. The same is true of the Red Sea,
causing like current through the Strait
lakes probably owe their saltness to the
supplies from the land. Water being the
most general of all solvents, the rains
gather up the chloride of sodium from the
soils and the disintegratiug rocks, and
where the streams fall into lakes whose
only outlet is vaporation, the land itself
must be constant source Of saline sup
ply, and their waters must become more
and more salty, until their capacity as a
solvent has been reached.
The Utah Basin must once have been
filled to its brim with ocean water. The
outlet has been evaporation. The lake,
receding to its present level, has left many
evidences of it's former extent.

sB The Democratic newspapers that
are continually carping at and finding
fault with the party may be doing US lots
of good, but it is difficult to see where it
is. The frequency with which these
Democratic papers are quoted by Repub
lcan newspapers must be encouraging to
those before mentioned Democratic pa
pers.- WIEsOn Advance
The trouble is, there are so many Dem
ocratic Editors in the State who know SO
much more than the old experienced poll
ticians, that it would be dangerous to un-
dertake to give them advice by way of a
suggestion. 1t is tha: class, with all their
brillianoy, that did not know that the
Democratic party, on four different oc-
casions, declared as u party in favor of
abolishing the whole internal revenue tax,
laws and system; hence their fault finding
or deliberate determination not to abide
by the party's platform.
Now that the Women's Christian TEN
perance Union has declared in favor OF
aboishing the Internal revenue, maybe
some of our friends will quit abusing the
State Democratic Executive Committee
for doing the same thing and endorsing
the action of the party in General AS
sembly and Conventions assembled.
