Highway Postal Locomotives.

In the south Of France the govern
ment postal service is supplemented
by the wagon post" of private con.
tractors. who employ many hundred
horses in conveying small parcels
from town to town, even along the
railway lines. This business has be-
come SO extensive that several road
locomotives have been ordered for it,
and are proving very satisfactory.
Two of these machines are running
between towns 20 miles apart each
making the trip one way nightly at a
speed Of eight miles an hour. Part Of
the road is very billy. with long gradi'
ents up to as much as one in II. The
locomotive, with coal and water
weighs Is tons, and the loaded wagon
from z to 10 tons, making the average
weight of the train % tons. At 175
pounds pressure the engines give
about 12 horsepower, and with fair
roads use about half ton of fuel for
the round trip of 140 miles. These
engines have been running over six
months without interruption. -Engi.

A Revolution in Watches.

The watch without h ands which has
recently been brought before the pub
lie is simply watch with ordinary
wheelwork, in which the intermediate
teeth are wanting and which gear
every minute and hour only. The
continuance, though admitted TO
possess some inconvenience, is, on
the other hand, claimed to pre-
sent some genuine preferences
over the ordinary make. Thus,
the construction not only allows
the reading to be accurate but also
permits Of estimating the time that
separates each passing minute. There
is not only an optical signal given but
also an acoustic one, since at every
change of figure the ear perceives a
slight sound, and consequently it be-
comes useless for one to examine his
watch in order to measure given in
terval Of time-a feature of special
value to engineers, physicians, officers,
travellers and observers. The expert
menter knows exactly when q minute
begins and ends. -JeweIers' Weekly.

great events of the war just closing
had not been added to the text books,
indeed it was beyond the authors
ability then to write calmly and SEN
sibly upon the subject. Therefore
one who was in school at that period
has received a sort of traditional
knowledge of the events of that time
unless upon reaching mature years
he took care to read about or study
the subject closely. In the
hurry of getting a living not all do
this and we find the school children
of today better conversant with the
dates and particulars of the civil war
than we who as children actually
lived cotemporarily with it.

Some of the Advantages Possessed by
School Children of the Present
Day.

New England Farmer.
With the present wonderful facili-
ties of travel, the places made histori-
cal by the war are being daily visited;
the leading periodicals are filling
their pages with the most diffuse &C
counts of events and people of that
time; and not the least instructive in
these matters are the cycloramas
which are now permanently located
in Boston and New York. No better
history lesson for the young can be
suggested than a visit to these MAN.
moth paintings. 1t is somewhat
curious to note the demeanor and
comment of visitor to these exhibit
lions. Not rarely the strong man for
a moment gives evidence of the
emotion called forth by the pictured
resemblance to the realities of his
own soldier life; the frivolous and
laxative are temporarily quoted by
the solemnity of the scene, while oc-
casionally an individual with dull
sense of pathos and sympathy makes
jest upon the impressive figures be-
fore him. 1t was while gazing upon
one of these vivid representations of
a great battle that a faint voice whis-
pered to me, "Oh mamma" and a
little head dropped in my lap. Then
I realized that my childhood memory
of the war with its recolections of sad
faces, sudden losses, close economies
and troubled world generally was
quite unlike any experience in the
school days of my children. 1t is
true, in that dark time, we some
times forgot the common sorrow in
childish play, that we felt sense of
pride and comfort in bearing our
share of the burdens. We staid after
school to scrape lint and roll band
ages and cheerfully added something
from our own treasures to put in the
boxes that were sent to what seemed
a far distant land. But many a
sensitive child hid its head in moth
er's dress to keep out the sound ofthe
dreadful band playing for recruits
and to drown the sobs of the
sorrowing wives and mothers as they
gathered in the long afternoons to
comfort and help others in their
anxious waiting. When we reached
the study of history at school the

How Sleigh-Bells Are Made.

1t has, no doubt. been mystery tc
many how the iron ball inside OF
sleigh bells got there, and it is said to
have taken considerable thought on
the part of the discoverer before the
idea struck him. In making sleigh
bells the iron ball is put inside sand
core just the shape of the inside of
the bell. Then mold is made just
the shape of the outside of the bell
This sand core with the jinglet inside
is placed in the mold of the outside.
and the melted metal is poured in,
which fills up the space between the
core and mold The hot metal burns
the core so that it can be all shaken
out leaving the ball within the shell.
Ball valves, swivel joints, and many
other articles are cast in the same
manner. Christian at Work.

sob, woman, woman!" shriked an
orator in a speech the other night,
"thou art the light, the life, the sal
walton of the world! Ishudder when
l think of what this world would be
without thy gentle, refining, emo
bling influences, bows thy shrine,
acknowledging thy purity and truth.
There is nothing, no nothing so
beautiful, so true, so perfect as a
woman. / reverence and bow down
before thee" And when he went
home he said to the woman who was
so unfortunate as to be his wife:
"What did you let the fire get so low
for? you knew I'd come home froze.
YOu'rejust like the rest of the women,
you haven't thought beyond your
nose. Stir around and get me cup
of hot tea, can't you? See if you can
do so much for fellow. I'd Just like
to know what you women think

THE CHILDREN OF THE YEAR.

First came Prince of the royal blood,
Who seemed of a proud and naughty mood,
And he blew blast such as victors blow,
And his trailing robes were white as snow.
His strong hand held earth's letters fast;
His cold breath like bugle blast;
The streams were hushed from their noisy
mirth.
While he watched the slumbers of mother
earth.
The next wasa Prince of milder form,
And the skies grew soft, its tints more
warm,
But the earth still lay in restful sleep,
And he guarded well her slumbers deep.
The third was Prince with martial air,
And his trailing robes were snowy fair,
But the storms were wild, and the tempest
high,
When his banners waved in the angry sky.
The fourth was Princess of pensive mein,
Her brown robes tinged with shade Of
green.
But she sometimes robed herself in white,
And stood transformed like an angel bright.
The fifth was as sweet as fairy queen,
And she wore the loveiest tints of green;
And the glad birds trilled roundelay,
To the footsteps light of lovely May.
The sixth was Princess wondrous fair,
With wreath of roses in her hair,
And her trailing robes were shining green,
And she walked the earth very queen.
The seventh was like her sister fair,
With more intense and ardent air;
Her shimmering robe of palest gold,
Fell round her form in graceful fold.
The eighth Prince who scepter bore,
Rich haryests waved the broad field Ger;
And his flowing robes were often seen,
Ola golden hue just tinged with green.
The ninth was Princess mild and fair,
With golden crown on her shining hair;
Like the ripened harvests brown and gold
Was her shining robe in its wavy fold.
The tenth was Prince in artist guise,
Who dipped his brush in the sunset dyes,
And painted his pictures rich and rare,
O'er valley, and mead, and hillside fair.
The eleventh was Prince of a stern, sac
mood
He touched with his wand the field anc
wood,
And bright leaves SILVER, and fade, ant
fall,
And cover the earth like funeral pail.
The twelfth was Prince austere and cold,
WHO laid his hand on the young and old,
He chilled the earth with his frosty breath
Till she slept what seemed the sleep o
death.
While these Princes come to us year b,
year,
And scatter rich gifts our lives to cheer.
Let us thank our Father, the great FRS
Cause,
Who is working still through his natura
laws.
