GAIN WITH LOSS,
Oarwin's Humility in Speaking of His Dis
like for Poetry and Music.

Oarwin's Humility in Speaking OF His Dis
like for Poetry and Music.
During the latter part of his life,
Darwin, the naturalist, was grieved to
find that his power of approaching and
enjoying beautiful music and poetry
had almost entirely left him. Until he
was thirty the products of these higher
arts delighted him beyond measure,
but after that time he could scarcely
endure reading'a line of poetry; only
novels, among works of the magma
ton, retained their hold upon him. 1t
is interesting to know that the great
scientist did not sneer at such pur-
suits, merely because he had ceased to
feel an interest in them. He speaks
of his deprivation with mournful SIM
plicity. wondering if the higher part
of his brain had become incapacitated,
for want of use, while his mind had
grown into "a machine for grinding
general laws out of facts" His hui
mility in speaking of the subject may
well prove instructive to lesser minds,
who have no scruple in condemning
what they do not fancy. He says:
"a man with a mind more highly
organized than mine, would not,
suppose, have suffered thus; and if I
had to live my life again. l should
make rule to read some poetry and
listen to some music at least once
every week. The loss of these tastes
is loss of happiness, may possibly be
injurious to the intellect and, more
probably, to the moral character"
But in his youth, Darwin was pas
sionately moved by music and it's
sister arts. He often spoke of pc.
culiar sensation of GOODNESS or SILVER
ing in his back on hearing beautiful
music, and an old friend quotes re-
mark made on the occasion of their
hearing fine anthem. At the end of
an exceedingly impressive part he
turned to his friend, asking seriously,
and with deep sigh: "How's your
backbone?'
1t is to be hoped that we have all
been sufficiently happy, at some time
in our lives, to have become familiar
with that very sensation. Youths

SOME POPULAR ERRORS.
Nutritive Value of Corn Grown in Different
Parts of the Country.

Parts of the Country.
There has been some little consider
alton given to the nutritive qualities
of corn grown in different sections OF
our country. One would think that
the great difference in climate IN the
vast region which produces this cereal
would give many variations in the
corn produced. The differences in the
corn do not seem to be as great as
those in the climate. There seems to
be no appreciate difference between
the corn grown in the East and West,
as shown by chemical analysis. There
are, of course, differences between
given varieties of corn, but the same
corr grown in the two sections is es-
sentially the same. There are many
popular errors in regard to the differ
ent varieties of corn. The greatest
difference lies between sweet and COM
mon corn, the former being de-
cidedly richer in albuminoids
and fats, and the value in nu-
triton much higher. There is a
SSHol dl U0ilcl llltu SOtiliclll WI IL 10
better than that grown in the North.
The distilleries and starch works pay
more for corn grown south of the Ohio
river than they do for that grown fur
Their north. Chemical analysis does
not indicate any appreciate differ
ence between the corn grown in these
two sections; still, it 10 claimed, and
probably borne out by experience,
that the Southern corn will make bet
ter bread than the Northern. This
may probably be explained by the
fact that the Southern corn comes to
market drier and sounder, that there
is less of it not entirely ripe, and that
it is harder This condition would &C.
count for the fact that there can be
more starch made from Southern corn,
and the difference in structure would
mean some difference in the character
of the bread produced. There have
been, however, comparatively few
analyses made of Southern corn, while
there have been many made of that
grown North, and further considera-
ton may develope some chemical
difference not yet shown. Indian

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT.

Its Great Public as Well as Personal AID.
vantases Plainly Apparent.
In Germany and i'll England. partic-
ularly in the former country, dyspepsia
has been almost an unknown COM
plant, although those who have ever
lived in Germany must be aware that
the demands upon the digestive organs
imposed by the food regularly con-
sumed by the people have been, and
are, quite as exacting as similar de-
mands made upon the people Of the
United States. But among those in
Germany who lead sedentary life the
physical force acquired by the gym
nastic training of their early days has
remained with them throughout life;
while, in the absence of such prepara-
tion, our American professional and
business men have not been able to
stand the tests which ordinary modes
of living have imposed upon
their physical structure. Fortunate
ly for US, great and beneficent
change has taken place, and
with continuance of the present
popular feeling in favor of physical
exercise. the coming generations of
Americans are likely to be healthy.
robust and active in their bodies, as
well as energetic and persistent in
their mental work. That this will be
of great public as we'll as personal
advantage seemss to us plainly ap-
parent. There have been instances in
which men suffering from physical
diseases of an exceedingly painful
character have been able to perform
admirable mental work; but this is
the exception rather than the rule,
for it is ordina rily the case that a
man can not think in clear and
healthy manner when the physical
basis of thought is in diseased con-
dition. We know that the greatest
national successes have been won by
those people with whom physical and
mental development went hand in
hand; hence. a change in our own
system which brings it into con-
formity with past and present expert
ence elsewhere is in every respect
to be applauded. But what ought
to be impressed upon the public mind
is the advantage to be gained by a
reasonable amount of physical exer-
else during the whole period of life.
William Cullen Bryant kept himself in
a healthy bodily condition up to an ex-
treme old age by taking long daily
walks, and by swinging a chair, in
stead of Indian clubs, around his head
each morning and evening. Bancroft.

tune by daily horseback exercise, while
Mr.. Gladstone has been able at an adj
vanced age to perform enormous
mental work by the physical stamina
which he has maintained by cutting
down trees in his park. These are
only few out of large number of
instances that might be cited. all going
to show that health and life may be
main tanned and mental powers con-
tinued unimpaired through old age if
the obvious needs of the body are not
neglected. Boston Ler0ld.

PURCHASING TREES.
Nine Reasons Why Small Ones Are Pref
cradle for Nursery Purposes.

Nine Reasons why Small Ones Are Pref
cradle for Nursery Purposes.
Owners of grounds who are laying
plans and making arrangements to
purchase nursery trees when spring
opens, and who can make their own
selections, or can rely on the nursery :
man to carry out their wishes. should
bear in mind that rather small trees
will possess the following advantages:
They may commonly be bought for
less money than large or overgrown
ones; they are more easily taken up,
and with better and more perfect
roofs; they are more compactly and
more securely packed for railway con-
veyance; the freight or express
charges are less; they are less
likely 10 be injured or dried in
transit; there is less labor in handling
and digging holesi they are better
held by the roots, and do not require
stalking; they are not exposed to
loosening winds; and they are more
easily and perfectly trained into such
shape as will suit the owner. Here
are nine reasons; and if the matter is
carefully examined, every one will be
found true. The only supposed adj
vantage of large trees is that they will
bear fruit sooner, but this is not COM
monty the case, and the check they
meet with in removal often retards
them so much that the younger trees,
which are scarcely checked. outstrip
them, and give handsomer and more
thrifty growth and better fruit.

HEROIC PIONEERS.
Planting of the First Civilized Settlement

Planting of the First Civilized Settlement
in the Mississippi Valley.
The way through the woods was
deep in snow, and encountered as they
were with cattle, the party under Rob-
ertson made but slow progress, it be-
ing Christmas day, 1879. before they
arrived at their destination. They
were not molested by the Indians, but
suffered much from cold on the jour-
ney, for the winter was the most
severe which had been known in a
century. The ice in the Cum berland
was thick enough to sustain the pas
sage of animals, and it was not many
days before the settlers had crossed
over and begun on the bluffs which
lined the southern bank the building
of the fort and the few log houses
which formed the nucleus of the
future capital of Tennessee. :"
1t was in the very heart Of the will

awaited in anxious suspense for the
coming of their wives and children.
The three months allowed for the voy-
age had expired, but no tidings had
come from them, nor had the sound Of

them soon became intense. Thus it

AGAINST THE GRAIN.

A Red-Haired Youth Has Set-to With
an Whipped Barber.
A red-haired young man, with an
irascible look in his eyes, came into a
Broadway barber shop and took seat.
Spreading himself out in the chair he
said:
Barber, you shaved me once be-
fore, three days ago. did you notP'
Yes, sir" replied the artist, re-
Numbering that he received no tip.
"Well. l gave you certain instruc-
lions about shaving me that l will
now repeat. NY skin is tender and

grain"
The barber began to iather his GUS
TONER'S face and indulge in medita-
tons foreign TO the instructions he
had just received. With deft strokes
of his razor he entered upon the task
of removing very stiff beard.
His strokes for several minutes
wore downward, when, seeming
to forget what had been told
him, he shaved against the grain.
With a great oath the red-haired man
sprang from the chair. Without walt
ing for any explanation, he struck the
barber and was about to follow up In

retreated.

pugilist, rushing after the barber:
The latter redoubled his efforts TO
escape, and finally fell into a cellar,

after him. Bareheaded, a towel about

shouting: 'Tll teach you how TO
