Rich Mems Sons.

II seems that all rich mems sons are
not spoiled children. The wealth Of the
Rothsohilds has remained in tho family
and constantly increased from genera
tion TO generation. There are
no rakes or spend-thrifts in
the family. The Vanderbilt
family have not yet produced the
provcrbial rich mans son, The money
is handed down from one generation to
another, but always falls into the hands
Of prudent, shrewd and conservative
heirs. Jay Gould's sons, Edwin and
George, are as staid and industrious as
their celebrated father; and have already
made fortunes for themselves, using, Of
course, the opportunities their father
has furnished them.
When rich mems sons are educated
like the sons of poor men, and are made
to depend upon their own exertions and
work, like less fortunate mortals, they
usually escape the vices and luxures
that arc popularity supposed to be the
concomitants of great riches. 'Com-
modore' Vanderbilt put his son, Will
lam, to work upon farm, and COM
PEELED him to toll like dry laborer. II
was this early discipline that made him
fit heir of his fathers millions. Rich
mems sons sometimes are no more tc
blame for their general worthlessness
than their fathers. Sometimes the boy
lis the real culprit. More frequently il
is his parents.

TIE PRODUCT OF DEATH.

A. B. Leonard, D. D., Missionary Secre-
tary Of the Methodist Episcopal Church, re
Gently delivered the following address In
Chickering HAIL. New York:
"Alcohol is the product of the law of death.
1t cannot be produced without first destroy
ing the life principle Of that from which it is
derived. Where the breath Of death is not
felt, alcohol is not found. Fermentation
always precedes the production of alcohol,
and fermentation is the first step in the pro-
cess Of decay. Fermentation must reach the
stage of actual decay before alcohol is
evolved. The process of decay renders the
articles upon which it operates worthless for
food purposes. A fresh, well-prepared beef
steak makes an excellent breakfast, but you
would not care to eat a fermented or decayed
beefsteak A fresh egg is palatable arti-
Gle Of food, but no one cares for fermented
or decayed egg. A ripe pippin is lucious
to the taste, but a fermented or decayed pip
pin is offensive and is rejected. In
which It Is derived must pass through the
process of fermentation and decay. The
cluster Of grapes the luscious peach, the
beautiful pippin, the golden grain must die
or rot to yield the intoxicating fluid Alcohol
is born Of dead mother, and is thus an
orphan. Being the product of death and
having no Me-giving substance, it causes
death everywhere. 1t has no element of
nutrition, and consequently cannot build up
tissues in q human body. The only nutrition
there is in fermented liquors Is small
quantity 50 small that many gallons Of the
poisonous fluid must be consumed to obtain
even a teaspoonful of nutrition, while In dis
titled liquors there is not an atom Of food
material. the process of distillation having
eliminated the last particle.

Houses Built of Aluminium.

Some one has been taking pains to
show that aluminium is, after all, not a
very useful mineral. But let us sect
never rusts nor warps with heat. Why
not, therefore, build houses of it, Wait
bit and you will have houses that
shine like silver. 1t would make equal
ly coed railroad cars, as the weight is
only one, third that of iron, though it
has strength equal to iron. Its ductllity
allows it to be easily drawn out into
wire. 1t is seven times better than iron
as an electro conductor: For cannons
and rifles it has the advantage of taking
off two thirds of the soldiers burden.
There is hardly any use made of heavier
metals to which aluminium can not be
applied. The next century will be as
surely the age of this new metal as it
will be of electricity. Star Sayings.

A Far.Sight Machine.

Mr.. Edison is reported, in a converse
ton with reporter who solicited his
ideas on the subject of the projected
worlds fair in New York city, as saying
that he would take an acre of space in
such fair and completely cover it with
his inventions, of which he has no less
than seventy under way. "One of the
most peculiar, and now promising goo
results" said Mr.. L lison, sis what l
may call far-sight machine. BY
means of this extraordinary invention,
The Electrical R.vew says, he hopes tc
be able to increase the range of vision by
hundreds of miles, so that, for instance,
"a man in New York could see the
features of his friend in Boston with as
much ease as he could see performance
onthe stage. That, he added, "would
be an invention worthy a prominent
place in the worlds fair, and hope tc
have it perfected long before 1892"

How the WOOdchucks Preferred to Die.

For many miles through the Genesee
valley in New York the track of the
Erie railway is laid on an embankment
from six to ten feet above the flat lands.
The soil is sandy, and near the bottom
Of the embankment many wood chucks
live in holes. When the river rose dur
ing the floods and covered the flat lands
the animals were driven from their
holes and took refuge by hundreds on
the track. The engineer of the first
train which came through to this city
after the washouts on the road had been
repaired saw woodchucks everywhere,
and a large number were killed by the
locomotive. The animals seemed to
prefer death in this manner to death by
drowning,
