The Earti's Duration.

The present age of the earth has been
placed by Sir William Thomson at 100,-
000, 600 years, while the speculations of
others have given much larger figures.
M. Adolphe d 'Assier, who believes such
estimates to be greatly exaggerated, con-
siders the life of the earth in three
periods, which he terms the igneous or
nebulo stellar stadium, the stadium of
solar illumination or Of organic life, and
the stadium of darkness, cold and death.
The first, which began with the de-
tachment of the terrestrial nebula from
the solar, and ended in the formation
of the crystalline crust of the globe
he calculates from physical laws to have
been 500, 600 years in duration. The
second, comprising the present epoch,
and to close with the extinction of the
sun, embracing the entire cycle of geo
logical formations-is found by geologi-
cal and physical evidence as likely to
have total length of 25, 1000, 600 years,
Of which more than half has passed.
The third stadium, starting from the
end Of solar illumination, and closing in
the terrible and inevitable catastrophe
of the fall of the earth to the sun, and
momentarily frightened by the mean
descence of the earth as the moon crashes
into it will have length that cannot
be calculated until the precise rate of &C.
celeration of the motion of the earth
around the centre OF attraction is known,
but will proably be, at the lowest esti-
mate 100, 900, 600 years Or more. Upon
the whole, the present age of the earth
appears to be about 10, 900, 600 years.
This is but small part of its existence,
and everything leads to the belief that
its total evolution through the immen-
sity of space will exceed million cen
turies

is wide field open to shrewd amateurs,
so to speak, to supply little articles of
convenience to housekeepers, shopkeep-

FARM AND GARDEN.
needing for Young Chicks,


1t is so easy to overfeed young chickens
that the trouble is more to give too little
than too much. One ounce of cracked
wheat is quite enough for young brood
daily, divided into four meals. The food
should be given on board or pan beyond
the reach of the hen, which should be
confined in coop. After ten days or
two weeks the little brood will forage
for themselves very actively if given a
run on some grass or in garden and
will pick up good deal of food that is
suitable for them. But the food may be
gradually increased from time to time
until they are month old. If fresh
ground is given to the chicks they will
not be troubled with gapes. If gapes
appear mix few drops of turpentine
with some scalded oatmeal once day
for them. - Neo York Times

press have il. SO the dangerous ma
tcrial was la,d aside and never used. But
Mrs. Weir took fancy to it. to keep,
as she said, as curiosity, and the manu-
facturerer, tempted by the high price
that she offered, consented to let
her have it, only warning her that it
would be certain death to her did she
ever attempt to wear il. | cut oil n

particles of the arsensic for some hours,
that the brain of the wearer would be

the result would almost certainly be
death, or at least severe brain'trouble
and probable imbecility. Here is astate-
ment of his analysis, signed by HIM ID
full. You can repeat the experiment, II
you like, under the auspices OF any
chemist of your acquaintance.
Without word Frank Seabright took
down his check book, filed up check
for five hundred dollars and handed 1t
to his visitor, who took it with u pro-
found bow, and instantly departed.
The dinner-party in honor Of Miss
Gwynne was never given by Mrs. Weir,
that lady having found it necessary i'm
mediately to sail for Europe, without
even the formality of recalling her in
vitations. A very simple experiment
had completely satisfied Mr.. Seabright
of the truth of Miss Lenoir's assertions.
Obtaining from his betrothed remnant
of the famous dress pattern, he had
thrown it over the cage of pet canary,
leaving an aperture for the admission of
air, and had so left matters for the night.
In the morning the bird lay stone dead
on the floor of the cage.
But he never told his future wife of
the risk she had run. She was rather
amazed at the great dislike that seemed
suddenly to spring up in his breast
against Mrs. Weir, and that led him to
destroy with his own hands the beauti-
full dress that had been that Iady's we'd
ding gift. She only ventured on avery
gentle protest.
"And to think have never worn it,
Frank and oh, it is so lovely" she
said, in tones of mild reproach. He
folded her in a lingering embrace, elo-
quent, had she but known it, of rejoic-
ing for her safety. But he said only;
Constance. dearest, know more about
Mrs Weir than you do. Certain revela-
tions that have been made to me, of late,
compelled me, not only to beg of you not
to wear her wedding gift, but also to
destroy Frank LeSlie's.

Modern Mummies.

The result. of recent experiment seems
to warrant the conclusion that human
bodies can be preserved in life-like
condition, without the use of cereclothes
and antiseptic drugs, merely by the alb
solute exclusion OF atmospheric air. A
quarter of a century ago the body of
Mrs. W. Peters, of Frankfort, Indiana,
was buried in an airtight casket of zinc
with an outer sheet of lead, the whole
enclosed in wooden coffin. Two weeks
ago the grave was opened for the pur-
pose of transferring the coffin to the new
burial vault of the family. When the
lid was removed from the glass front
piece, only slightly yellowish tinge of
the skin distinguished the face of the
dead from that of sleeper. Her fea-
lures were smooth and round, and her
lips, though somewhat discolored, were
neither sunken nor wrinkled. The use
of similar caskets might have saved the
Egyptian embalmers q good deal of
trouble. brakes Magazine.

Brutality to Apprentices.

The stories of the treatment of APP
prentices in England that have been
told by novelists, Dickens among the
number, have hardly been credited by
their readers-this side the water at all
events. 1t seemed hardly probable that
human beings could be guilty Of the
treatment ascribed to them. But case
of inhuman treatment of an apprentice
was recently ventilated in a London
Police Court which rivals anything ever
written heretofore. A little chap of
fifteen was bound out to dentist, who
was accustomed to beat him in a most
brutal manner and nearly starved him
to death. The boy rarely got two meals
in day, and these meals consisted in
the majority of cases of piece of dry
bread for one meal and little porridge
for another. He never had anything
to eat before - o'clock in the day, and
in many cases not till e o'clock in the
evening. The boy was so starved that
he would eat the potato Feelings and
tea leaves, lick the bones that were
thrown away and the plates which his
master and mistress used. When the
lad appeared in court he was almost a
skeleton, aud showed plainly the signs
of his i'll usage. Yet the brutal master
was only given two months imprison
ment. San Fran 'iseo Chr0aiele.

Feeding Farm Horses

An English veterinary surgeon rec
Ommends that those who have charge of
horses, especially farm horses, should be
taught that the stomach of horse is not
like the rumen OF Il COW, mere recepta-
Gle for food, but an essential organ of
digestion of limited capacity, which does
not need to be crammed in order to per-
form its proper functions, and that it
cannot be so treated without danger to
the animal; that the teeth of the horse
are provided for the purpose of masti
eating the food, and that food which
does not require justification should be
sparingly, if ever, used. He further
recommends that no horse be put 10
work Immediately after IA full meal, and
where horse has done heavy days
work it should be allowed to stand in
the stable until it is cool and comfort
able before being fed. A little water
may be given, and if little good hay
be put into the rack it will occupy his
attention, and besides requiring proper
mastication will further have the effect
to slightly stimulate the stomach to
secretion and prepare 1T for the recep-
ton of the feed which is to follow.
Should horse require more food than
usual to supply the extra waste of tissues
caused by hard work give it by all
means, but let it be in excess in its
albuminoids or nutritious constituents,
and let the horse be fed oftener and not
in increased quantities at a time. --.Neao
