Driving Away Malicious Spirits.

Whenever we are to ascend a dan
gerous rapid-and nearly all are SO
considered by the native itinerary, and
probably are at certain seasons of the
year-a boatman brings out an old
rusty four barreled blunderbuss, rams
the barrels full OF powder, picks in
fuses and stations himself at the side
of the boat for the most serious busi-
ness connected with the ascent. As
the boat strikes the first fierce break
ers, one barrel is discharged into the
water; the gun is then dropped upon
the deck, and the sailor tugs for a
while at the ropes; when we have
swung around and plowed and
plunged sufficiently with little prog
ress, he drops his work, whatever il
may be, fires another fuse and ex-
plodes the half ounce Of powder into
the foam; the third and fourth cham
bers are likewise emptied il the bust
ness is continued long enough.
This may seem a curious and useless
custom 10 those unacquainted with the
Chinese ideas of demonology, but
once having mastered this branch Of
their intricate religious system, il will
appear TO be the most natural and
necessary proceeding. Malicious spir-
its are in and around all dangerous
places, and ready to do all manner of
mischief. They can be frightened by
terrific sounds; ergo, in passing all
such spots the Chinaman naturally
yells, beats a gong, explodes fire
crackers or powder in any form. At
worship, at weddings, funerals, in
times of severe sickness, the greater
the noise the more likely the demons
are TO hide themselves. The water is
crowded with such demons, and they
are either frightened or propitiated by
the boatmen. -''Wester China"

THE FLYING MACHINE PROBLEM.


The reason Of this wonderful effect
iveness Of the animal machine is OBJ
yious. See how this machine has been
gradually perfected throughout in
finite arcs. especially in birds. During
tho whole geological history of tho
earth this umclline has been ltladily
improving in structure of skeleton,
energy Of muscle and rapidity of com.
bustion of furl, hy struggle for lileand
survival of only the sw. "a, the most
energetic and ag hottest blopdCd, until
an almost incredible Intensity is
reached in l'.ds. Moreover, in them
everything l. sacrificed 10 the supreme
necessity of flight. Niscera, skeleton,
legs, head, an are made as small and
light us possible tn make rOom Tor the
great pecturll muscles working the
wings. Add 10 this the exquisite
structure Of the wings and feathers,
adapting them Tor the greatest effect
iyeness, and we must admit that "a
bird is an incompatible model of a
flying machine.
No machine that we may hope to
devise, for the same weight OF ma.
chine, fuel and directing brain, is half
so effective. And yet this machine
thus perfected through infinite ages
by a ruthless process of natural selec-
ton, reaches its limit of weight at
about fifty poundsl i said, weight
of machine, fuel and directing brain"
Here is another prodigious advantage
of the natural owe the artificial ma
chine. The flying animal is its own
engineer, the flying machine must
carry its engineer. The directing en-
gineer in the former Cthe brain) is per-
haps an ounce, in the latter IL is $50
pounds. The limit of the flying ami
NAL is fifty pounds. The smallest
possible weight Of a flying machine,
with its necessary fuel and engineer,
even without freight or passengers,
could not be less than 800 OF 400
pounds.
Now, to complete the argument, put
these three indisputable facts together:
/. There is a low limit of weight, GER
tainly not much beyond fifty pounds,
beyond which it is impossible for an
animal TO fly. Nature has reached this
limit, and with her utmost effort has
failed to pass it. 2. The animal ma
| chine is far more effective than any
we may hope TO make; therefore the
limit of the weight of a successful fly
ing machine cannot be more than
fifty pounds. 3. The weight of any
machine constructed for flying, in
GLIDING fuel and engineer, can not be
less than three or four hundred
pounds. Is il not demonstrated that a
true flying machine, self raising, self
sustaining, self propelling, is physi.

GeIert, the Greyhound

Llewellyu. a prince who relgned
over North Wales at the beginning OF

greyhound that had been given TO him
by his father-in law, King John, OF
England The hound was called &c
lert, or Kill hart" from its proves
in the chase, and was "A great i%ayorte

and guarding his couch when he slept
One day LlcWellyn went out with
his men aud dogs 10 hunt but during
the chase lac missed GelerL the
strongest and swlltost Of all hls

absence, but little game was taken:
The prince returned home angry and
disappointed, when, just as he reached
the gate of his castle, Gelert came
bounding toward him 10 receive his
accustomed carcsses; but Llcwellyn
started back in surprise, for the jaws
of the hound were dripping with
blood.
He rushed TO his chamber, and saw to
his horror that the cradle in which his
little son had been sleeping was over
turned, and the coverlet and floor
sprinkled with blood. Thinking that
his favorite hound had killed his
child, he turned in his rage and
plunged his sword into its side; but as
poor Gelert fell. there mingled with
his dying howl the cry of a child.
Lewellyn ran TO the overturned cradle,
and, raising the blood stained cover
let, he found his rosy boy beneath it,
Just awakened from bis sleep, and be-
side him there lay a huge wolf, torn
and dead, that had been killed by the
brave greyhound. The cradle had
been overturned in the fierce struggle
between Gelert and the wolf; but the
little boy was unhurt, and had fallen
| asleep under the coverleL, only TO be
awakened by the death cry of his pre-
server.
Llewellyn's JOY at finding his little
son safe and unframed was only
equaled by his grief and remorse at
having slain his faithful Gelert. He
