A LARGE PENDULUM.

Its Swinging Proves Beyond u Doubt That
'the Earth Do Move"
The longest pendulum on this CONT
nent swings in the chronological school
at Atlanta, Ga. It is a heavy, pear
shaped piece of iron, attached to a
brass wire forty-two feet long. The
upper end of the wire is pivoted in a
steel point, which rests on the centre
of steel plate, so as to cause the least
possible friction. The swinging of the
pendulum gradually describes circle
on the floor In direction following the
sun, showing in this that ''the earth do
move" Directly under the pendulum
is large circle divided into twenty
four parts, of fifteen degrees each, to
correspond with the hours of the day.
The north pole is placed directly under
the pendulum, and the meridians OF
longitude meet there. The parallels OF
latitude make smaller circles inside
the first DR.. J. S. Hopkins, president
OF the school, who made and put up
the pendulum, performs the experiment
as follows: The iron is brought to the
edge OF the circle in the meridian of
Atlanta and let swing across. Appar-
emily it goes straight across, but grad
ually it traverses the circle in the d.
rection taken by the sun and opposite
to the revolution of the earth. The
pendulum. not being directly over the
axis of the earth, does not move in
exactly the same time as the sun, but
falls behind some hours day. It
is said that if it were at the north pole,
where it would be Immediately over
the axis, it would traverse the circle in
exactly twenty-four hours, and at the
the equator it would not traverse it at
all; for gravity would operate to pre-
vent.-Jeweler' Review.

Nany Child is Heart-Hungry for WoSsl
of Encouragement.
Parents are too often slow to see the
motive of their children's kindest &C.
tons. A little fellow has been reading
OF some young hero who helped his
father and mother in all sorts of ways;
and after racking his brains to think
how he, too, can help, he remembers
that he can fetch his fathers slippers,
and take his boots away and put them
in the proper place. Without saying a
word to anybody, when evening comes
he does it; but the father is so occupied
that he notices not what the boy has
done. The little fellow hopes on,
thinking that when he goes to bed his
father will say how pleased he was to
see Charley SO willing to help; but not
word is uttered, and the boy goes up
to bed with a choking feeling in his
throat, and says his prayers by the
bedside with a sadness very real in his
heart.
Parents often complain of children
no5 oelng so ready to help as they
should be; the fault is with the parents,
who have not known how to evoke feel
ings with which the heart of every
child is richly stored. All words of
approval are helpful and encouraging.
In large family there have been days
Of anxiety and care. The eldest daugh-
ter bv her skill in teachinr has earned
P little extra money, and without a
word to any one she lays nearly all of
It out in buying things that are much
needed in the house. What JOY fills
her heart when a fond mother takes her
aside, and with emotion that can not be
concealed says how thankful she is for
such considerable kindness, and MUIR
murs: II don't know what we should
do without you, darling" My friends,

couragement.- Words.

able to size up your purchaser all

try to get the village freethinker to
direct you to prayer meeting you will
make an expensive mistake. You
must, like St. Paul, be all things to all
men, and, more than that, the right
things to the right men. You can't
sell to two men in the same way. You
must attack each man differently. You
must catch a man when he is not busy
and when he is not tired. When you
do go for a man, go for him horse, loot
and dragons. Don't give him chance
to get away from you, but hold Oh tc
him until you land him. You have got
to know your own goods like you know
your prayers tc do this, and you have
got to know what your competitors are
doing, too. You must be prepared fol
