sea, aud the former was going at good
speed. As soon as the fog horn of the

The Mosquitoes Business End.

The bill of mosquito is complex
institution. 1t has blunt fork at the
head, and is apparently grooved.
Working through the groove, and pro-
jecting from the angle of the fork, is a
lance of perfect form sharpened with
a fine bevel. Beside it the most per-
feet lance looks like a hand-saw. On
either side Of the lance two saws are
arranged, with the points fine and
sharp and the teeth we'll refined and
keen. The backs of these saws play
against the lance. When the mosqui-
to alights with its peculiar hum, it
thrusts it's keen lance, and then en-
larges the aperture with the two saws,
which play beside the lance until the
forked bill with its capillary arrange
ment fer sucking blood can be insert
ed. Tho saving process is what
CRATES upon the nerves of the victim
and causes him to strike wildly o. the
sawyer.-Boston Budget.

THE AVERAGE MAN.

his lace had the grim look OF granite,
AS wrlnkled and Drowned with the sun
AS the coat on his poor narrow shoulders
ana ms hands showed the work he had don
FOR his wife and the babe on his bosom,
Yet he smiled through his pallor and tau
IN patient, sad way, as if saying:
I'm only the average man.
II can't be hero or poet,
Nor General, decked with q crown;
Tn only a badly-paid servant
FOR them set above me, I'm down,
An it's nG use complaining,
I'll git along tn, best way can
But one o these days II come moruiu'
An hope TT the average man.
AS looked on this wis,fu!:eyed 1oiler
A lire flashed into my brain,
And cried from my hearts deepest center
Above The wild roar Ct the train;
II have seen the hero of battles,
have looked on the hand for the plan,
The mightiest force of the world Is
The arm OF the average man,
HE wages all battles aud wins them,
He builds all towers that soar
From the heart and The heat Of the city;
His hand sets the ship from the shore,
Without him the General is helpless,
The earth but place for q plan,
He moves all and builds all ana feeds all
This sad-smiling average man.
Then lifted my hand in promise,
With teeth hard-set and my breath
Held close in my throat, as uttered
In VOW that shall outlive death:
81 swear that the builder no longer
To me shall be less than the plan;
HenceforIh. give honor and glcry--
Being just to the average man.

P,TA AND POINT.

When you introduce a moral les
son let it be brief.
Fortune does not change the char
acter. but it reveals it.
1t is not good that repels or evil
that attracts, but the monotony of good
and the variety in eviL-Atohison
Globe.
What glorious world this would
be if people lived up to the epitaphs
on their tombstones!- Hutchinson
[Kas News.
Most mems experience is like the
stern lights of a ship which nlumine
only the track 1t has passed.
The character of men placed in
lower stations Of life are more useful,
as being irnitable by great numbers.
Atterbury.
Every man has his chain and his
clog, only it is looser and tighter to
one man than to another. And he is
more at ease who takes it up than he
who drags it.
Man doubles all the evils OF his
fate by bordering over them; scratch
becomes wound, slight an injury,
jest an insult, small peril a great
danger, and slight sickness often
ends in death by brooding apprehen-
sions.
in all that we do we have right to
consider the effect it will have upon
our characters. or upon the upbuild-
ing and development of our higher
natures. No man is required to dc
what will belittle him. United Pres.
byterian.
If a man wish to rightly grow in
grace he must accustom himself to see
and look at the larger things in life,
and the larger world in which he
lives. A constant attention to the lit
tie will dwarf him. and finally unfit
him for his place among other men.
He that will not permit his wealth
to do any good to others while he is
living prevents it from doing any good
; to himself when he is dead. and by an
| egotism that is suicidal and has q
double edge, cuts himself off from the
! truest pleasure and the highest happi-
/ ness hereafter -Colton.
Men may experiment in certain
lines in social intercourse after mas
! terlng the forms long usage has provee
| good, but to cling to peculiar ways o
their own, that are not agreeable o.
that fail to show the hearts kindness,
