SHORTCOMINGS OF TYPBwRITBRS.- 1t is
astonishing that out Of the large number
of girls who learn shorthand and type
writing so few make a success of it.
There is scarcely day passes that girls
do not apply 10 n 2 for positions, saying
that they are experts, but when it comes
to the test not per cent. Of those who
apply for positions could be considered
good students. One great drawback is
that most girls begin studying shorthand
and typewritiug before they understand
the rudiments of spelling, or have the
slightest idea of punctuation and capita
izatioD. The colleges are all crowded,
and have been for the past two years,
with girls learning shorthand and type
writing, and yet good, reliable operators
are very soarce.-Globe Democrat.

Mr.. Clinton A. Suowden, of The Chi
cago Times, is originator of scheme to
save bisons that still remain on the
plains. 1t has been ascertained that of
the millions which once roamed on the
prairies of the west only seveuty-fve or
a hundred remain, and these are located
in the extreme southwestern portion of
Texas. An expedition is soon to start
for Texas to round up there for buffalo.
The leading purpose is to perpetuate a
species of animals which is thoroughly
typical Of American animal life; one of
the controlling ideas OF the trip being
to kill none of the animals while corral
ling them or after their capture.

CARRIER PIGEONS FOR EAST AFRICA
Could not carrier pigeons be put to
practical use in east Africa! One grand
difficulty with which European enter
prise has to contend there is that of
getting intelligence from the interior to
the coast. The distance, seldom as
much as 500 miles, is practically insur-
mountable; and Mr.. Stanley, for exam
able, has disappeared for so long time
as to excite the gravest fears. 1t is i'm
possible to put up telegraphs until we
can punish those who steal the wires,
and messengers cannot be relied on.
They can cover twenty miles day; but
sometimes they are killed, sometimes
they are frightened, and sometimes
very often-they loiter for weeks at the
villages, unable to comprehend wig
white men should be so punctilious
about time. There are years before
them, Why hurry? The consequent in
termissions of information impede all
enterprise, and make every enterprise a
leap into the dark. If a pigeon post
could be established, as it might be, for
instance, with Emin Pasha, It would
make news fairly certain.-London Spec

to catch the flies that swarm in her

A German newspaper. in its account
Of the floods at Temesvar, reports the
salvation of an Old gypsy fiddler upon
the quainteSt boat probably, that has
ever been seen. The old man lived at
the extreme end of the Fabrikerplatz
in a wrctched little cottage. He went
home about midnight in a very ioyial
humor, laid himself down to sleep and
woke about O'Clock in the morning.
When he opened his eyes he made the
unpleasant discovery that his hut was
flooded, and that the water had forced
its way into his bedroom. He had no
movable goods except IN old bedstead,
a stool and his great double bass. He
coolly placed his monster Of Bass
geige,' his beloved brcad-winner, upon
tire surface of the water, seated himself
astride it and padded himself to dry

bed, amid the chec"ing and laughter Of
number of gypsy comrades.

RESULTS OF WORRY.
Unhappiness OF People Who Fret at All
Things and at All Times.

Things and at All Times.
Worry is the cause of NOR. trouble
than any other one thing not except
ing alcohol. For it leads men to muir.
der. suicide. embezzlement, insanity,
drink. family arrangements. quarrels
and business difficulties. Worried pee
pie can not make good bargains; thei1
judgments become SO warped OF
twisted, through dwelling too long on
the same subject; with those subjects
they are no clearer at the end of their
thinking than they were ut the begin
ming. There are multitudes of deaths
every year attributed to regular spe.
cific diseases rs typhoid fever. dyspep.
sia. consumption and heart disease
which have for their cause worry.
Worry induces such a condition OF
body that 1t readily receives the germ:
of disease.
Occasionally we meet people wnt
can be called born fretters; they fret
at every thing. seven days and seven
nights scarcely give them time enough
to do all the worrying they are capable
of doing; as for any one living witt
them, it is their worst punishment
that they have to endure themselves.
We daily meet faces that show the
results of worry; they are scanned. and
wrinkled. and full of lines. They
should be a warning to us. If the time
and strength spent in worry ould b.
spent in self-improvement and benefit

and questions which the poor fellow
could not answer. At last one of the
sailors commenced to look through the

him dishonest, touched his right
