Thoughtful Thoughts.

The best teacher is time.
Every bees honey is sweet.
The house showeth the owner.
The best preacher is the heart.
A corne hcareth not reproof.
Anger at a feast betrays a boor.
Things turn out better than we fear.
Idle gossip is the busiest thing in
society.
To face u danger is to get at the ex-
act facts.
A man without enemies is of little
value.
All is but lip wisdom that wants ex-
p~erience.
Truth is as artless as a child, and as
persuasive.
We meet a great many men whose
talk is like q bunch of fire-crackers,
when they are first touched off-full of
pop for a few minutes, and then all is
over.
Let.no II suppose that by acting q
good part through life he will escape
scandal. There will be those v who
hate him for the very qualities that
ought to procure him esteem.

that the Congressman was momentarily

and the ~Illinoisan left the library in an

Stepping Stones to Success.

Learn your business thoroughly.
Keep ut one thing; in nowise change.
Observe system in all you do and
undertake.
Whatever is worth doing at all is
worth doing we'll.
One to-day is worth two to-morrows.
BE se~lf-reliant, do not take too much
advice, but rather depend on yourself.
Never fail to keep your appoint
ments, nor to be punctual to the min
ute.
Never be idle, but keep your hands
or mind usefully employed, except
when sleeping.
Use charity with all; be ever gener-
Gus in thought OF deed; help others
along LIES thorny path.
He that ascends the ladder must
take the lowest round. All who are
above were once below.

mCosT 100 MUCH.


In tho early days OF the direct tea trade
with China. importers were anxious to Sc
cure the earliest csrgoes Of a new crop.
The fastest clipper ships were engaged
In tho trade. Great haste In loading them
was followed by a hot race to reach Now
York first.
The first cargo brought the best price
and largo profits. Tho successful captain
was always rewarded. so every known aid
to navigation twas adopted.
The young captain OF n OF MI. Astor's
clippers bought. on one Of his trips. a new
chtonometer. and with its aid made quick
passage. and arrived first. He put the
price OF 1t into tho expense account of the
trip. but Mr.. Aston threw It out. insisting
that such an item of expense for new fam
gled notions could not be allowed.
The captain thereupon resigned and took
service with a rival line.
The next year he reacehd port long In
advance at any competitor. to the great
delight and profit Of his employer. and the
chagrin OF Mr.. Aston.
M Not sa tong ;n after they CHANGED to meet. and

NATURAL GAS.


Recently Propounded Theories Concsrnins
Its Origin.
One writer asks whether il is safe to
bore the earth too much. He assumes
the earth to he a hollow sphere filled
with q gaseous substance called by us
natural gas, and he thinks that tapping
these reservoirs will cause disastrous
explosions, resulting from the lighted
gas coming in contact with that which
is escaping. Earthquakes, he said, are
probably caused by vacuums created
by the outfowing gas. He compares
the earth to q balloon foated and kept
distended by the gas in the interior,
which, if exhausted, will cause the
crust to collapse, affect the motion of
the earth in its orbit, cause it to lose its
place among the heavenly bodies, and
fall in pieces.
Another writer thinks that boring
should be prohibited by stringent laws.
He, too, thinks there is a possibility of
an explosion, though from another
cause. Should such n disaster occur
"the country along the gas-belt from
Toledo through Ohio, Indiana and Ken
lucky, will be ripped up to the depth
of 1000, to 1000 feet and Topped over
like a pancake, leaving a chasm
through which the waters of Lake Erie
will come bowling down, filling the
Ohio and Mississippi valleys and blot
ting them out %forever!"
Still another ~tlleorist, says a writer
in the Popular Science Monthly, has
investigated the gas wells with tele-
phones and delicate thermometers, and
he announces startling discoveries. He
distinguished sounds like the boiling of
rocks, and estimated that a mile and q
half or SO beneath Findlay the tempera-
ture of the earth is $500 degrees. This
scientist says an immense cavity exists
under Findlay and that here the gas is
stored; that q mile below the bottom of
the cavity is a mass of roaring, seething
flame, which is gradully eating into the
rocky floor of the cavern and thinning
it. Eventually the flames will reach
the gas, a terrific explosion will ensue,
and Findlay and it's neighborhood will
be blown skyward in aninstant. Such
are some of the theories gravely pro
pounded i'll respect to the new fuel

Race Prejudice.

Nowhere in the United States is the
color line more closely drawn than at
the national capital. There is no hotel in
Washington where colored people are
allowed any sort of equal accommoda-
tions. At one or two leading hotels
colored guests are allowed a limited
number of rooms, but on condition that
meals shall be served therein. One of
the wealthiest and most cultured citi-
zens of New Orleans, MI. Marie, large
sugar planter who enjoys an income Of
$4,000, frequently visits Washington,
but he is treated precisely as others Of
his race, and not permitted to sit in the
public dining-room.

An American Invention.

Blacksmith and W%hcelwrigAt is au-
thority for the statement that the
process of making whatis called "Besse-
mer' steel, for which Henry Bessemer,
of England, was knighted, was discov-
cred by William Kelley, a Kentucky
foundryman. Two Englishmen in his
employ went back to England and ac-
quainted Bessemer with the process.
Thus what Judge Kelley terms "the
greatest invention of (the age" appears
to he an American discovery piratedb by
an Englishman.
