Now we never thought of that before,

A SIMPLE PROBLEM.

HYoung Freethinker" writes to say
that sin many instances the words OF the
Bible are untrue as applied to our own
times" and he says, stake the passage:
sAre not two sparrows sold for far
thine?' 1 say they are not" Oh, well,
I agree with Young Freethinker that the
passage quoted may not apply to this day
and this generation. But that is the
fault OF this generation; the Bible is all
right. 1t is only we who are all wrong.
Two spsrrows were sold for farthing
then, and 1 don't suppose IN
spirstion itself could foresee that,
in the year 1884, in the United
States of America, q race OF human BE-
ings would wiring from starving neigh
Dor 81 s. for spring chicken no bigger
than q robin, or % for squao three
DAYS out OF the shell, and would make
butter out of dead cattle, and when their
children asked for bread would give them
8 preparation of alum, and would eaten
imported sardines of the coast OF Maine,
and would sell "bob veal" in the public
markets, and would mix split peas in the
coffee and sand in the sugar. 1
suppose 1t was the intention to burn the
old globe up before generation arose
that was capable of doing such things.
OF course you can't make the Bible ut
our day, my son. Omnipotence couldn't
do that without making hopeless wreck
of the Bible. But you can make our day
and generation fit the Bible. Suppose
YOU try that. Com mence at the other
end Of the bridge, and by the time you
get Wall street fitted to the Sermon on
the Mount you will be gratifled to see
that you have landed the country safely
on the old "two sparrows for fsrthing''
basis.

your Uncle George, "snd that is work.
Put 'em to work and keep 'em at 1t, for
idleness is the parent of all vice. Don't
map out eny particular trade or calling,
but keep ZEN at work, and it'll map out
itself. Keep 'em at work, and habit OF
work will grow on 'em. That's the way
was brought up" Thus wisely speaks

he was young man then and the LATEST
white man, 1 think, in the state OF
America. His clothes used to miloeW
before ne had moved about in them
enough to wear them out. He could sit
longer on q store box, his hat pulled
over his eyes, blinking at the sun, than
any man I ever saw. He didn't waste
his time talking politics, because ne was
too lazy to talk much. He lived with
YOUR grandmother, and she used to say
that the sun stood still every
time 1t saw George go to the woodpile
and pick up the az. II he did any work
a. ali in his life it WAS long before
YOUR grandmother knew him, for she
often said that your uncle George was
born that way and she couldn't whip 1t
out of him. Now, have frequently mo-
tlced that men who talk that way-5ut l
am keeping you here and you'll miss your
train. 1 Just wanted to tell you this, be-
cause your uncle George has gone to see

see you there, and don't want you to
feel discouraged when he tells you how
hard he had to work when he was boy.

WARMEN'S Pr lCTICAL ORTHOEPY AND
CRIrIQUE-Tne Science of Pronunciation.
W. II. Harrison. Jf., Publishing Co., AIS All
Dearborn stress, Chicago.N
The book critic often recalls the wise
mans assertion, that of the making OF
many books there Is no end, and heartily
wishes that it was not truism. Occa-
sionally, however, 1t is mis- good fortune,
as in the present instance, to be able
Justly to aw crd need of praise to an au
thor whose work betrays thorough prep
aration, and faithful discharge Of the
task he has undertaken; this Is true Of
the book above mentioned. Any
msn who helps to unrayel
the intricacies OF the English
language may be regarded as philan-
thropist as well as philologist, and Mr..
Warrants little treatise is an added boon
In that 1t deals with English as she usht
to be spoke. he first discusses the stand
ard dictionaries, Worcester and Webster,
giving, as do most scholars, the former
the preference in pronunciation. Then
follows plain and simple rules regulating
the articulation Of Consonante, the enun-
citation Of vowels, and the pronunciation
of words. Crucial tests for correct pro-
nunciation are submitted that would
prove excellent exercises for the schools.
A few pages are given to accent, vowel
and consonent symbols, and then there Is
q list of 63eS words usually mispro-
nounced, with the correct pronunciation
given. This perhaps forms the most
practical part of the work. The book Is
convenient in size and makeup, and Is
cheerfully commended to all educators.

An E1anhnnt,s Brain

Cornell college desired an elephants
brain, and it fortunately secured one. P.
I. Barnum was the donor and the recent
fire at Bridgeport, Conn, the cause of his
generosity. They hardened the brain
while it remained in the skull by con-
tinual injection, the same method EN-,
ployed with the brain of the Elmira MUIR
derer. The method originated with this
college and prevents the distortion fol-
lowing the removal and subsequent
hardening of the brain. 1t is done in the
following manner: All the vessels ex-
cept the vertebral and the carotid arteries
are tied, and these are connected by rub
ber tubes with tank containing diluted
alcohol, which is arranged at proper
height to allow the fluid to slowly flow
through the brain substance. The study
of the brain is yet to be made, and the
result is awaited with interest. Animal
trainers, especially those of elephants,
claim that they possess little reasoning
power, and we do not imagine In conse-
quence that the result will benefit any
thing but comparative anatomy.-The
Doctor.

Lotteries and Drsaah

In lotteries and kindred forms Of
gambling, men reject trust in other folks,
luck, and believe instead In condolences
and dreams. They find the number on
which they finally stake their fate IN all
manner of absurd end t1nmeahing ways.
All the tens of thousands Of ticket hold
ers in great lottery have selected their
number in some way satisfactory to
themselves, about which we hear nothing
when the result is failure, as in ninety
nine cases out of hundred It necessarily Is.
But when the result chances to he sue.
must be, the whole story Is gravely re-
lated in the papers as though the number
actually bringing the prize had been de-
termined beforehand by somb scientific
process Of reasoning, and success assured
by the exercise of good judgment and
ingenuity.
Yet it is idle to inveigh against the
folly of such fancies and superstitions.
They have existed In all ages and among
all races from time immemorial. Carry
ing in themselves their own contradic-
ton, they also carry in themselves what
10 believers in luck appears their full
confirmation. For he does not observe
tlIat the ideas about luck which run
through his mind ere contradictory, and
in their self contradiction provide for
every event. When s1ccess canies to him
by following one idea about luck his
faith In lick IS confirmed; but when
failure arrives he Is not q whit less salts
fed that he holds the Sr5.e faith about
luck, for be has another doctrine about
that event also.-Richard a. Proctor.

The petrifed remains Of a huge ami
NAL have been discovered near Percy.
Ia, by man named s. r. Dawson. II
was lying beneath the surface on the
bank of the Des Moines river. The total
length of the body measures, without the
head. over forty feet. The head was de-
tached from the body, and when dis
covered was some distance away from it.
at nine feet from the end of the tail it
measured four feet ak inches in width.
In support of his theory that this is the
petritied remains of sone extinct monster,
Mr.. Dawson, in describing the find, shows
that it is entirely unlike the stone forma-
ton in the vicinity. A spar of quartzite
formation was discovered in the locality
where the blood vessels and intestinal
canal should be, and another formation
was found in other parts. The remains
were in a bed of dark blue stone sur
rounded by petrified remains of insects
and other animals. Mr.. Dawson is con-
fdent that the monster belonged to the
carboniferous age.-Demorest's Monthly.
