Metal in House Building.

It is well to have as little metal in
the, fittings of a house as possible.
Stove pipes, the foils at the back Of
mirrors, gas and water pipes are good
conductors Of electricity, and one
should avoid their neighborhood in a
storm. Brick furnaces are better every
way than iron ones, and there is so
much gain of safety in dispensing with
those masses of metal in the house.
Gas is a barborous thing for dwellings
anyhow, killing plants and poisoning
people, SO its pipes may be got rid OF.
AS for water pipes, rubber hose in pro-
per casing will be found to answer well
and haYeathe additional advantage of
saving plumbers bills, as it will not
freeze in winter. It is argued from a
scientific view that the employment of
SO much metal in house buildingSis in
furious to the health of inmates, as it
interferes with the magnetic current,
and that delicate persons condemned to
live in buildings with metal roofs, iron
stairs, .girders, OF with a battery Of gas
and water pipes, steam coils and cleo
trio wires about them, infaHibly suffer in
strength and nerves. Be that as it may,
and the view is quoted only as a cur
iosity, it. is certain that low houses,
broad rooms, and the least metal about
them, are safe houses in thunder
storms, and all the clatter about mod,
ern conveniences, or the ridicule Of
friends in rugged health, who never
knew the quiver Of "a nerve, will not
weigh a feather against the gain IN
peace of mind in these constantly re-
curing changes Of weather. P'biladel-

Mr.. Edmunds' Advice to a Stu
dent.

~ .FE E-. =. a f D. sr.r
Years ago a young man in my class
in college conceived the idea Of secur-
ing place in the departments here to
enable him to study law meanwhile,
and wrote to Mr.. Edmunds about it,.
He received the following reply:
WASHINGTON, January, 1s71.-DEAR
SIR: I have yours of the 18th. I
should be pleased to aid you if possible,
but the chances Of your getting place
here now are not more than one in
twenty-five with all the aid could give
you. There are literally hundreds Of
applicants for each vacancy as it occurs,
and, truth to say, Vermont has her full
share of people in place here. Still, it
is possible that some rare good fortune
might come to you in getting place if
you wish to apply. Ii you wish to do
SO you can send me an application and
| will cheerfully do what can for you
At the same thine Istrongly advise you
not to come here even if you can get a
place. The sort Of law education you
get here, while in a department., is of
the poorest, and I think you would be
much the gamer at the end of three or
four years studying law in an Office in
Vermont, and almost starve meantime,
if need be, rather than to begin your
profession in the way you propose.
The average of lawyer turned out Of
the claw schools is running down the
bar, 1 think, pretty fast, There is now,
indeed, wide room for courage, talent,
and learning at the bar; and that room
will be chiefly filled, as it has been, by
men who in poverty and want, but with
brave, pure hearts and high purpose,
come in through the patient drudgery
and ardent labors of a working law
Office
Having thus volunteered advice, I re-
main yours very truly,

Eeen accepted in S

lea has Eeen accepted IN Spain,
America, and, with some exceptions,
in the United States; in France Ger
many, and Italy it has excited doubt
and surprise, but in the last named
he has the support of the eminent
Turin geographer, NJ. Guido Cora.
There is no doubt that Columbus
and Vespucci went along the Mos
quito coast at the feet of the Sierra
Amerrique and that the name was
reported by the officers and men OF
these expeditions, and Schone, the
geographer, declared in 1915 that
the name was already popular in
Europe.
According to the London Times it
is beyond question that one edition
OF Vespucci's letter on his third vow
age has the name Amerigo in the
place OF the Christian name. Nine
teen editions had Albericus, and sub
sequent Italian editions had Alberico.
The one with Amerigo on the title
page was published in 1906, but M.
Maroon suggests that this was never
intended to be a variation of Albert
co, but rather an adaptation of
Amerrique, a name already known
and applied to the new world, to
Fespucci's name to distinguish him,
as we now say Chinese Gordon to
distinguish the particular Gordon by
suggesting one Of his greatest feats.
The paper, which is very learned con
corning the geography andgeograph-
ical publications of the sixteenth
century, is not vet concluded.

The Mighty United States.
From the London Spectator.

From the London Spectator.
If the United States were a small
power, her Original idea of diplo-
macy" as the German chancellor's
penmen call it, might be considered a
caprice, and passed over with smile;
but her people are becoming the
greatest nation in the world. Tt is
probable that nothing short of ac-
tual violence would now induce any
nation to attack her, whileshe could,
if she pleased, almost ruin the com
merce OF any nation on the globe. It
is true she has scarcely any regular
army, her rs, 900 men being over
worked at home; but if a neigboring
planet kept no army, it would not
be subject to attack.
Her coast, if threatened, would
bristle with torpedoes and new me ans
of destruction, and her protectionists
would be only'too pleased if impor
tation stopped. Her navy, though
still small, is rapidly increasing, so
rapidly as to be subject of special
reports to the maritime powers; and
if war were in immediate prospect,
her limitless command alike ofmoney
and men would soon draw fet to-
gether. Besides, apart altogether
from her existing resources, the
growth in the strength of the Union
affects the imagination of the Euro
pean states.
There are children alive who will
see, or at all events may see, the
North American Republic with 81
population OF two hundred millions
and the means of raising three hun
dred million pounds sterling year;
and the idea of mourning the enmity
of such a power is as appalling as the
idea OF fighting Russia would be, say,
by Italy or Spain America could be
met only by confederation of
Europe, which, without some great
change of circumstances, would be
impossible, or possible only if all Eu-
rope felt it too dangerous to put up
with the treatment one power was
receiving.
The union already stands toward
theSpanish and Portuguese-American
states in the relation in which she
may one day stand toward Europe
itself. Her foreign office already
claims something like a protectorate
over both Americas; and desires to
WELD preponderating influence
from the ST. Lawrence to Patagonia,
torbids any government to cut the
Isthmus ofPanama, and warns Eu-
rope, in a presidents speech, not to
meddle with any state Lying south
of us" though it may be 1000 miles
off.

Undressing Was Not Bathing.

In 1868 President Lincoln sent a
force under Gen. Henry IT. Sibley to
punish the Indians for their barbara
ties in Minnesota and Dakota, and
drive them back to the Rocky mount
ain plains. Among the many Incl
dents Of the Sibley expedition against
the Sioux which are still afoat in
Dakota, is the following. On the re-
turn the camps were usually made
on the banks of a lake Or river, and
frequently when the men learned
where the camp would be some of
them would rush forward and have
a bath; this rolled up the water and
made it unfit for camp purposes.
This action so incensed Gen. Sibley
that he issued an order prohibiting
bathing until the officer of the day
should announce that the water had
been secured for camp purposes and
the stock had been Watered.
One night the camp had been made
on the banks OF small lake. Capt.
Horace Austin was the officer OF the
day, and he sent detail to the lake
in charge of Sergt. S. P. Childs, now
of Mankato, to see that the generals
order was obeyed. Childs saw aman
come down to thelake shore, look at
the water, step back behind bush
and commence undressing. Soon he
was disrobed and walked to the edge
of the water and dipped his foot in it
as if to see how cold it was, when
Childs yelled "Halt!' What is the
matter?' asked the would be bather.
The sergeant replied the generals or
ders were that no bathing should be
allowed until the officer Of the day
had announced sufficient water had
been secured. The man remon-
strated, and finally said that if
Childs knew the order he ought to
have informed him before he un-
dressed. Eyes" said Childs, aIkneY
it, but the order does not prohibit
disrobing." The man who wanted to
battle was Gen. Sibley himself, and
Childs knew it, but he didn't battle
then. Fargo Oak. Argus.

The Name America.

The bulletin of the Paris geograph-
ical society. which has just been
issued, contains an account by M.
Jules Maroon of certain further re-
searches which he had made into the
origin of the name America" AS
far back as 1875 he published a pa
per on the same topic, which at
tracted much attention at the time,
and he has since devoted much labor
in the investigation Of early histori-
cal documents in which the New
World is named.
The popular notion that America
was so called from the Christian
name OF Amerigo Vespucci is, he says,
wholly unfounded and he sums up
his conclusions in this way: L.
Amerique is the Indian name Of the
mountains between Juigalpa and
Libertad in the Province of Chon-
tales, which separates Lake Mica
ragua from the Mosquito coast. The
word in the Maya language signifies
the windy country" or ':the coun-
try where the wind blows always. 2
2. The Christian name of Vespucci
was Alberico in Italian and Spanish,
Albericus in Latin. This particular
name is. subject to an enormous
number Of variations, and the nom
enclature and calendars of Italian
and Spanish saints Of the period
show; but nowhere is there any such
variation of Americas, Amerrigo,
Amerigo, Almerigo, &c, and none OF
these is either a diminlI Of varia-
ton in use in Italy, Spain or France,
for Alberico or Albert. 4. Before
1907, when Jean Basin of Saint Die
published the name, it is not to be
found in any printed document, nor
even in any manuscript ofrecognized
and incontestible authority.

of a native origin for thename Amer

Goodness in Danger.

Lord William Lennox, in his
Recollection, tells a story of the
Duke Of Wellington. The French,
with a fresh force double of the duke,
were closing in upon hisjaded troops,
one stormy night in Spain.
Wellington completed his prepara-
ton and then turning to ascoutsaid:
How long will it be before they
can reach us?'
Half an hour" was the reply.
"Then | can go to Sleep" he said,
and, wrapping his coat about him.,
he dropped where he stood in the
muddy trench and in an instant was
asleep. He woke when the the bugles
of the enemy sounded in his ears.
Napoleon, his soldiers were accus-
toned to declare, not only slept
.soundly when under fire, but even
when riding on horseback.
Gen. Grant also had the same facul-
ty of falling Instantly asleep in the
face OF danger.
This singular physical trait is not
more a proof Of courage than a
cause Of it; the brain, in. these
brief moments of sleep, finds new.
vitality, and Wakens ready for the
conflict again.
A story is told ola famous English
admiral, Sir Sydney Smith, whose
ship, the Antelope, ina terriblestorm.
in the North sea was driven among
the rocks. Sir Sydney summoned
his officers to the cabin.
Gentlemen, you know our condi-
tion. We are driving on to the
breakers. / acknowledge I can do
nothing more. If any of you can
make a suggestion, now is the time. :
There was an unbroken silence.
"Then there is nothing to be done
but to await our fate" He touched
the bell. "Pierre, bring up the cof-
fee.''
A story came from Switzerland a
year ago, of a mountain guide whose
name was not preserved. He, with
two others, was leading aparty over
one of the most precipitous passes Of
the higher Alps. The men, as is US
ual, were tied to each other by a
long rope.
AS they scaled the wall OF ice they
slipped on the edge of a treightful
chasm. This man was at the
end of the rope. Without his weight
there was chance for the, others to
regain their footing; with it, there
was none.
He cast a glance down at the dark
abyss, filled with fathomless SHOWS,
then drew his knife from his belt, say
ing quietly to the man next him. /"
"Tell mother how it was JOSE"
He cut the rope and fell, never to
be seen by mortal man again

Our Duchess Got Even.

From the Graphic.
| was told recently a funny story
about our own duchess of Nal
boro' going to Mrs. Labretouche' S
place this winter, not knowing as
MADAME Victoire ct Cie' is on the
sign-whom she was going to meet.
It seems that several years ago she
had met this same lady at some
French watering place and had made
every effort to cultivate her, with a
view, quite openly expressed in a re-
stricted circle, Of getting in to En-
glish society. Mrs. Labretouche
was in those days rather exclusive.
Money was never very plentiful With
her, and she once had a habit Of
making up for it's absence by haut-
eur, but she was sufficiently respon-
sive to Mrs. Hammersley then. The
rub came when all parties were again
in England. The American made a
driving tour the next year in the
early autumn with some friends, and
took occasion to look in at Mrs.
Labretouche's rather dilapidated
country place down in Surrey, and
they do say got a very freezing re-
ception, one that gave the final
quietus to her attempts to cultivate
the English gentry. Think of the
delicious emotions that swelled in
her bosom when she next met the
mistress of that mouldy, but heredi-
tary mansion, presiding over a milli-
ner's shop, and an upstairs millinery
shop at that, for aYietoire ct Ciea'
are above Atinson's perfumery place,
Was not that recompense for great
deal of his grace's society! She
ordered a bonnet, and has been
showing it#and talking in a pityine
and sympathetic style about finding
an old acquaintance in such a posi-
ton.
