A GOOD THING FOR THE BOYS,

Manual training is one of the good
things that is good for everybody. 1t is
good for the rich boy, to teach him respect
for the dignity Of beautiful work; it is
good for the poor boy, to increase his facil-
ity for handling tools, if tools prove to be
the thing he must handle for living af-
terward; it is good for the bookish boys,
to draw them away from books; but,
most of all, it is good for the non-bookish
boy, in showing him there is something
he can we'll do. The boy utterly unable,
even if he were studious, to keep up in
book-knoWledge and percentage with the
brighter boys, becomes discouraged, dull
and moody. Let him 60 to the work
room for an hour, and find that he can
make box or plane rough piece of
board as we'll as the brighter scholar
nay, very likely better than the brighter
neig ghbor-and you have given him an
impulse or self-respect that is untold bene-
fit to him when he goes back to his studies.
He will be brighter and better boy for
finding out something that he can do we'll.
Mind you it is not planning the board does
him good; it is planning the board in the
presence of other boys, who can no longer
look down on him when they see how
we'll he can plane. He might 60 home
after school and plane board in the bos-
ON of his family, or 60 to an evening
school to learn to plane, without a quarter
part, nay, without any, of the invaluable
effect upon his manhood that it will have
to plane side by side with those who, in
mental attainments, may be his superiors.

A FAMOUS MARCH.-Looking through
history, we find that though in all other
particulars the art of war has made Won
derful strides, yet in the actual distances
accomplished in marches on foot the an
clients were fully equal to modern soldiers.
In fact, the most wonderful feat ever re-
corded in marching was accomplished by
the ancients. In the second Punic war
Hannibal waited at Canusium for his BROTH
er Hasdrubal to bring him reinforcements
from Spain. Facing Hannibal was a Ro-
man army under the Consul Claudius
Nero, while opposite Hasdrubal was an
other Roman army under the Consul
Liyius. Leaving the main body to hold
and deceive Hannibal, Claudius, with
picked body Of 1000 horses and 5000 foot,
marched quickly and secretly to Livius,
and, joining forces with him, they hurled
themselves on Hasdrubal and defeated
him. Claudius then at once marched back
again before Hannibal was aware of his
brothers. defeat. Now, the distance be-
tween Canusium and Sierra Gallica, the
place of the battle, by the best authorities,
is given at the least measurement at 225
miles. The march was made in six days,
or at the rate of over thirty-seven miles
day. But this march is an exceptional
one, and, if believed, must stand out like
so many other of the wonders of the an

Iy, but could not; and we left him in the
midst of his tears and protestations OF
gratitude, and rode off to the nearest ranch
to procure food and rest for ourselves and
ponies before starting on our homeWard
journey.
Bailey is at present one of the wealth
lest and most popular cattle-men in the
Southwest.
His wife did not die, but recovered, and
now resides with him at his ranch on the
North Fork.
We cowboys kept our word; and the
spring after the lynching affair saw sew

TWO KINDS Of COURAGE.

General Horace Porter contributes an
article to the June Century on "The Phi
losophy of Courage" from which we quote
as follows:
Indifference to danger is not always the
form of courage which should entitle its
possessor to the highest credit. 1t is
negative virtue as compared with the quail
ity which enables one to perform dan
gerous duty while realizing the full meas
ure of the peril encountered.
"These two traits are best illustrated by
the old story of the two soldiers whose
regiment was charging up hill in des-
perate attempt to capture battery. When
halfway up, one Of them turned to the
other and said, why, you are as pale as
sheet; you look like a ghost; l believe
you are.afraid.' Yes, am, was the an
afraid as 1 am you'd have run long ago.
It is something higher than physical cour-
age, it isa species of moral courage, which
recognizes the danger and yet overmas-
ters the sense of fear. When the famous
mine in front of Petersburg had been COM
pleted, and the National troops drawn up
ready to charge the enemy's works as soon
as the mine had done its work in creating
breach, the signal was given just before
daylight, the fuse was lighted, and the
command stood waiting with intense anx-
iety for the explosion which was to follow.
But seconds, then minutes, then tens OF
minutes passed, and still no. sound from
the mine. The suspense became painful,
and the gloom of disappointment over
spread the anxious faces of officers and
men.
The fuse had been spliced about mid
way. It was now thought that there was
defect in the splice, and that it was at
this point that the fuse was hanging fire.
The day was breaking, the enemy was
becoming alert at sight of our unmasked
columns there was not moment to be
lost. Lieutenant Doughty and Sergeant
Reese, of the ;48th Pennsylvania infantry,
now volunteered to examine the fuse.
They entered the long dark gallery which
led to the mine, and without stopping to
calculate the chances of life, calmly ex-
posed themselves to one of the most hor-
rible forms of death. With no excite
ment to lend them its intoxication, with
nothing to divert their minds from the
fate which seemed to await them, they
followed the course of the fuse through
the long subterranean passage, found the
defect at which the spark had been ar
rested, and made new splice. On their
return the match was again applied, and
the train was now prompt to do its dead
ly work. These men displayed higher
order of courage than those who after
forwards charged into the breach"

SOURCES OF MISCHIEF IN EATING.

The great sources of mischief from
eating are three-quantity, frequency, ra-
pidity, and from these come the horrible
dyspepsias which make of human life a
burden. By eating fast the stomach, like
a bottle filled through funnel, is full and
overhowing before we know it. But the
most important reason is, the food is swal-
lowed before time has been allowed to di-
vide it in sufficiently small pieces with
the teeth for like ice in tumb bier of water,
the smaller the bits are the sooner are they
dissolved. 1t has been seen with the
naked eye that if solid food is cut up in
pieces small as half pea, it digests almost
as soon, without being chewed at all, as if
it had been we'll masticated. The best
plan, therefore, is for all persons to thus
comminute their food; for even if it is
we'll chewed communion is no injury,
while it is of great Importance in cases OF
hurry, forgetfulness or bad teeth. Cheerful
conversation prevents rapid eating. 1t re-
quires about five hours for a acommon meal
to dissolve and pass out Of the stomach,
during which time this organ is incessant-
ly at work, when it must have repose, as
any other muscle or set of muscles, after
such length of effort. Hence persons
should not eat within less than five

rest more thar one-third of its time. The
brain perishes without repose.
Never force food on the stomach. All
are tired when night comes. Every mus
Gle of the body is weary and looks to the
bed, but Just as we lie down to rest every
other part of the body, if we by a hearty
meal give the stomach five hours work,
which in it's weak state requires much
longer time to perform than at an earlier
hour of the day, it is like imposing upon a
servant full days labor just at the close OF
a hard days work. Hence the unWisdom
of eating heartily late in the day or even
ing; and no wonder it has cost many a
man his life. Always breakfast before
work or exercise. No laborers or active
persons should eat an atom later than sun
down, and then it should not be over half
the midday meal. Persons of sedantary
habits or who are at all ailipg should take
absolutely nothing for supper beyond a
single piece of cold stale bread and butter,
or a ship biscuit, with single cup of warm
drink. Such a supper will always give
better sleep, and prepare for heartier
breakfast, with the advantage of having
the exercise of the whole day to grind it
up and extract its nutriment. Never eat
without an inclination.-[ The Housewife.

How CALICO Cor ITs NAME.-The de-
rivation of the word "calico" is very inter-
esting as of such an ancient date is its orr
gin. Mrs. Leon Owens says in her "Trav-
els in India," that in the year 1893, just ten
months and two days after leaving the
port of Lisbon, Vasco da Cana landed on
properly Kale Rhoda, "City of the Black
Goddess" Calicut was at that period not
only very ancient seaport, but an exten-
sive territory, which, stretching along the
western coast of Southern India, reached

the latter, showing evident concern that
his little pet" was weak, dispirited and
getting worsted, while Harrison, backed
and cheered by thousands of people cry
ing, "Hurrah for Old Tip" stood self
poised and confident, rejoicing as strong
man to run a race" These representa-
tions were infinitely varied, sometimes ir-
resistibly provocative of roars of merri-
ment, all of which served to keep up the
fun, hilarity and general good feeling.
With the election in Novemb ber-which
resulted in Harrison's election by 234 elec-
toral votes of the 294 cast, and a Whig ma
jority in the House of Representatives of
the United States-the national carnival
ceased, and the people returned once more
to their regular daily avocations with
cheerful hearts and hopeful feelings.

being. Few had ever heard of him. The
people knew from history and the cam
paign papers that he had been general in
the then late war with England; that he
had won victory at the battle of Tippe-
canoe over the British and Indians, and
also at the battle of the Thames, in Cana
da, where Tecumseh, the noted Indian
warrior, was killed. This was enough to
make hero of him by those who had a

ONE TOUCH OF NATURE.
BY L. D. LEECH.

It was in the early seventies, and and
my two partners were running cattle
ranch located on the Big Medicine river
in southwestern Kansas.
The recently finished Pacific railroads
to the north of us had driven the buffalo
pretty we'll out of the southern country,
and the millions of acres of rich grasses
which had pastured countless thousands OF
these animals for untold ages past, now
Law open to the herds sof the cattiemen.
We were among the first ranchers who
entered the new field, but at the time OF
which write nearly one hundred COW
camps had been established within radl-
us of fifty miles of ours.
One of the most recent arrivals IN the
neiqhborhood was New Englander
named Bailey, quiet, rather delicate
looking fellow of about thirty five, who,
wear before my story opens, had come
on the range, bought couple of hundred
head Of cattle, and located 4 ranch on the
North Fork, about twenty miles west OF
our camp.
Bailey was shy, reserved sort of man,
and although hospitable enough when
visited, evinced but little of that whole
souled fraternal sociability which gener-
ally characterizes the lordly riders of the
range. This made him very unpopular,
and with the exception of an old Mexican
herdsman, who served him in the capacl-
ty of:cow-boy, he had few friends ana no
intimates.
We are entirely too ready to believe the
worst of any one whom we dislike, and
cowboys are no exception to the rule.

LOVE AND HoNoR.-"All is honora-
able in love" is maxim entitled to more
consideration for its age than for its cor
rectness. It is not true that all things are
honorable in love. Here are two young
men, for instance, of good standing, and
standing equally we'll in the estimation of
the community. Before all other things
each desires the hand of this girl; they
do not believe merely, but they both
know-at least they think so-that life
will be one continuous gloom without her.
What temptation to resort to every
means to win her favor. One of them
believes that by falsely disparaging his
rival he can achieve success. But how
base to resort to calumny even though it
would secure to him what he esteems the
greatest of human prizes. Many young
man in such dilemma has acted on the
most generous and chivalric sentiments,
even exaggerating the virtues of his COM
petitor in love and beauty rather than to
run any risk of doing him injustice. The
true way to win in love is to make your
own merits greatest in reality, rather than
by sounding your own praises too loudly.
FLOWERS OF NoRWAY.-The roofs of
many of the houses are covered with turf

quently quite garden Of flowers which
have sprung up. Sometimes there are
even small trees. Many of the flowers in
Norway remind one, as indeed the whole
landscape frequently does, of New Eng
land. You see the dandelion, the but
tercup, the gentian and various other fa-
miliar flowers in the fields. In their win
dows, both in town and country, the Nor
wegians have wealth of flowers that sets
you wondering how they. can raise them
in such beauty and profusion. I presume
the absence of furnaces and gas has much
to do with their success as horticultu-
rists.-[Colonel George Bliss in New York
Times.
WHOM LIFE HAS DIsCIPLINED.-The
middle ages, who have lived through
their strongest emotions, but are yet in the
time when memory is still half passionate
and not merely contemplative, should
surely be a sort of natural priesthood,
whom life has disciplined and consecrated
to be the refuge and rescue Of early stum-
les and victims of self despair.

from Bombay and the adjacent islands to
Cape Comorin. 1t was at an early period
so famous for its weaving and dyeing Of
cotton cloth that its name became identi-
fed with the manufactured fabric, whence
the name calico. It is now generally ad-
mitted that this ingenious art originated
in India in remote ages. and from that
country found its way to Egypt.
1t was not until the middle of the sew
enteenth century that calico printing was
introduced into Europe. A knowledge Of
the art was acquired by some Of the ser
wants of the Dutch East India company,
and carried to Holland, whence it was in
troduced in London in the year 1876. 1t
is surprising for grown children, as well
as our young folks, to learn that "Pliny, as
early as the first century, mentions in his
natural history that there existed in Egypt
a wonderful method of dyeing white
CLOTH" Calico cannot be despised when
it boasts of such antiquity. The shoddy
makeup of the present day may look
down with contempt upon the calico dress,
but what kind of lineage has it? the cali
co can proudly ask. -

CHESTERFIELD FAIRLY OUTDoNE.-
Texas judges do not administer: the laws
in a spirit of cruelty, but give the con-

The Castroville Anvil prints the sentence

a barber. The judge is reported to have
said:

BRIGHAM YoUNG's READY Witt is
believed that the following anecdote Of
Brigham Young has never before been
published. The high priest of the Nor
mons often had to exert the whole of his
wonderfully quick wit in order to preserve
the faith that his followers had in him,
but he was generally equal to the occasion.
A certain elder, while chopping wood, had
cut his leg so badly that it had to be am
putated. AS soon as he was able he came
to Young and stated his case to him some
what as follows: II have always been a
good Mormon; I have several wives and
a good many children, and in my present
condition do not know how am to pro-
vide for them. believe truly that you
are Christ's representative on earth, and
that you have all the power that he had.
If you like you can work miracles; you
like you can give me new leg, and now
/ ask you to do it. !"
+ Young assented to all the flattering
propositions as they were laid down, and
when the elder had finished speaking he
said: II can give you new leg, and 1
will, but want you to think about it a
little at first. When the day of judgment
comes, wherever you are buried, your old
leg will find you out and join itself to you,
but if give you new one, that will rise
with you, too, and the question is whether
you would rather suffer the inconvenience
of getting along with one for few years
here, or 60 through all eternity with three
legs.'
The choice was quickly made, and Brig
ham Young's reputation as a miracle
worker was saved. .- ..

A curious Photographic apparatus, by
which camera is raised by a rocket
and lowered by parachute, is being
developed by French inventor, M.
Amedec Denisse. In its experime ut al
form, the cylindrical camera has IL
lenses round its circumference, with
a sensitive plate in its centre, and is
provided with shutter which opens
and instantly closes as the apparatus
commences to fall. The descent is
eased by the opening of the attached
parachute, which is drawn back to
the operator by cord attached be-
fore the firing of the rocket. For Sc
curing birds eye views, the photo
rocket offers several important ad-
vantages over balloon-photography,
such as comparative cheapness, case
