EDUCATIONAL EXTRACTS.

BECAUSE you can not go TO school is no
reason why you should not be wen
educated.
Schools and educational advantages OF
every kind are multiplying rapidly. AS q
consequence more is expected Of each sue
ceeding generation.
SPEND your leisure in reading books
which will teach you something worth
knowing, or will give heart training. Have
nothing TO do with trashy books, which
weaken the memory and deprave the taste
TO-DAY in our land there Is not boy or
girl Of ordinary health, strength and mind,
who can not in some way become well
educated and interesting person, fitted 70
give pleasure and benefit 10 any communi-
ty.
MUcu may be learned by simply using
ones eyes. Take the very best care OF the
health, for the brain is greatly effected by
the state of the body. And even If fine
education be gained. it is Of but little value
with the health wrecked
One way 10 gain information Is 70 listen
to the conversation of those who have had
the advantage Of travel and culture. II
Frankhn's plan is adopted Of talking with
each man about his own calling, you viii
both give pleasure and receive instruction

WORKSHOP AND STUDY.

So GREAT are the recent discoveries In
electricity that it is said French electrician
thinks he will soon be able to produce a
thunderstorm at VIII.
NEARLY every kind of glass, especially
that continuing manganese, is liable to
change color by exposure to sunlight. Heat
will restore the color, however.
ACCORDING to experiments recently made
the tensile strength of wet rope is only
one-third that of the same rope when dry,
and rope saturated with grease or soap Is
weaker still.
The microscope often reveals impurities
IN diamonds, particles Of organic matter and
bubbles of gas being common. Quartz,
chlorite, pyrite, hematite and topaz have
also been seen.
AFRICAN teak wood weighs from forty
two to fifty pounds per cubic foot, works
easily, but wears away tools rapidly on &C
count Of the quantity of slick IN it. 1t con-
tains an oil which prevents the iron in con-
tact with it from rusting.
HYDROGEN is shown by experiments to be
neither anRsthetic nor hypnotic, but II in
hailed so as to be taken up by the blood 1t
quickly kills warm-klooded animals, but sus-
ponds life in cold blooded animals for long
time before actually destroying 1t.
SAwpusT is being used by some builders
for mortar instead Of sand. tits said to an
swer well; as it is one-half lighter than sand
1t has some advantage when used On cell
irgs. Mortar when made Of quicklime and
sawdust. mixed with cement, does well for
brick or stone work.
THERE are several factories in North
Carolina manufacturing pine needles into
useful material; one factory produces daily
fifteen hundred pounds of pins-leaf hair and
curled pine straw, sold to furniture and car
rage manufacturers for stufing cushions,
chairs. etc. The fiber is also converted into
carpets and mattings.
THE method of cleaning furs practiced in
Russia, the land Of furs, is given in recent
number of La Science lIlustre. 1t Is as fol-
lows: Rye -four is placed in pot and heat
ed upon stove, with constant stirring as
long as the hand can bear the heat The
-four is then spread over the fur and rubbed
into it. After this, the fur is brushed with
a very clean brush, or better, Is gently
beaten until all the -four is removed. The
fur thus treated resumes its natural ulster
and appears as If absolutely new.
FoR sharpening tools, instead Of oil, which
thickeus and smears The stone, q mixture
of giycer1ne is recommended The proper
tons Of the composition vary according TO
the class OF tools to be sharpened- One with
a relative large surface Is best sharpened
with clear fluid, three parts OF glycerine
BEN mixed with che part OF spirits.
graver, having small cutting surface, only
requires small pressure on the stone; and
m such cases the giycerine should be
mixed with Only two or three drops OF

WICHITA TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER
SERVICE.

The charter for the organization of the
Wichita Telegraph and Messenger COM
pany has been received and the organiza-
tion of the company perfected by the cleo
ton of the following board of directors for
1889: II. ID. Heiserman, Murray Myers, A.
G. Walden. Frank Burt, ali of Wichita,
and Dick Walker, of Topeka. H. d. Heis-
erman is president, Murray Myers, vice
presiden; Frank Burt, secretary and treas
urer; A G. Walden, superintendent, and
L. +. Hamburg, manager
The company is daily adding to the
number of boxes they already have and
their business is consequently Increasing.
They make tariff of rates for certain dis
tances, calculating closely the time which
the messenger should occupy in
making the trip and charg-
ing the patrons accordingly. Should
the messenger be longer than the reasola-
BILE time, he is subjected to fine, to avoid
which induces him to ''let no grass grow
under his feet" The numerous messen-
ger boys are all kept in thorough discipline
by Manager Hamburg, who is an expert in
the management of such an institution.
In case Of long trips or trips where eS-
pecially quick time is desired, a messen-
ger on horseback is in constant readiness.
A special feature of the service. to which
most rigid supervision is given, is that of
distributing circulars, dodgers, etc, for
advertisers. Under ordinary circum-
stances, it is practically impossible to get
q boy who will do such work faithfully,
but the newly instituted rules are such
that boy cannot fail to per-
form his duties properly, without
being detected and discharged for the first
offense. Distributing monthly statements
for business houses is one more new fea-
ture instituted, which saves the regular
collector Of the house many trips TO see
his customers who are also posted as to
their bills and have had an opportunity TO
check them over, before he arrives to MAKE
collection. Delivering bundles and
packages is another.
Within few weeks all of the employees
will be provided with new and tasty uni
forms.
The Office is open at all hours of the day
and night. In the inauguration of this
perfected system Of messenger service, the
citizens of Wichita are'but having demon
strated to them that she is becoming more
nearly metropolitan in her methods and
appointments every day and they will
avail themselves of the advantages in such
a manner as TO show their appreciation Of
the facilities afforded them

Keepsng any longer IS an expense Win very

FARMERS instead Of being in the x Y
rs of their profession are really in the A
B Cs in SO far as they are trying TO In
prove the quality of their live stock and
it's products without paying attention -
the keeping up and improving Of the fer
tility of their soil.
THE sheep is one of the closest feeders
we have in fact, with the exception Of the
rabbit and the kangaroo, it will eat
pasture barer than any other animal. This
is, Of course, due to the small size of the
mouth, together with its prediction for
the finer grasses.
WEmay observe all through the range Of
animal, from the neglected pig up TO the
human organization, that the amount of
energy expended for profitable returns Is
IN almost exact proportion to the value OF
breeding in the individual, and its capacity
to digest well-selected food
Too LONG or coarse pasture is Of no ben
eft, and, in fact, the quality Of the milk Is
often in the inverse ration of the baroness
of the pasture, but it is the cows themselves
that must eat it bare. Some other kind OF
stock might be allowed, such as horses IL
they are quiet, but the cream of the pasture
must be at the service of the cows, else
there will be little cream on the milk.
THAT "a rolling stone gathers no moss"
should be remembered by every farm
err, especially by every young farmer.
Whether his farm is a small one paid
for, or he is staggering under load Of
debt, he should stick TO it. He should i'm
prove his methods of farming, strive to
learn the causes OF failure or success, but
he should not give up and sell out for less
than the property is worth and move to
some other country.
