The report of the Massachusetts Bureau
of Labor Statistics shows that woman is
making her way in the industrial world.
For example, in 1875 the woman engaged
in "gainful pursuits" was 22S3 Of the
whole female population; in 1856 the
percentage was 39.S2-a very marked
gain. In 1875 all persons employed in
such pursuits 1910 per cent. were males
and 1851 per cent. were females; in
1885 the percentage of women had in
creased to 1898. In 1875 there were
nineteen branches of industry in which
women were not employed; in 1855 there
were but eight. Other figures might be
given with similar results. They mark
steady enlargement of the field of wo,
mans occupation.

UNCLE s1pNEY,s VIEWS.

i hold that the true ago OF wisdom is when
We are logs and girls, and not women and
men:
When, as credulous children, We know things
because
We believe them-howevcr averse to the
laws.
1t is faith, then, not science and reason, 1
say,
That is genuine wisdom--and would that,
today.
We, as then, were as wise, and ineirably
blest,
As to live, love, and die, and trust God for
the rest!
So simply deny the old notion, you know,
Tint tho wiser we get as tho older we grow.
For in youth, all we know we are certain OF:
Tho greater our knowledge tho moro VIC
allow
For skcptical margin; and hence 1 regret
That the world isn't fiat, and tho sun doesn't
set.
And We may not go creeping up homo, when
we die,
Through the moon, like round, yellow hole
in the sky.

Changes in tho "Big Dipper. -

One of the most notable examples OF
the constant and yet almost impercepti-
BILE changes taking place in the heavens
is to be found in the motion of the seven
bright stars collectively known as tho
Big Dipper. Higgins, the noted as
tronomer, is now engaged in proving
that five of these stars are moving in the
same direction, while the other two are
moving ina direction directly opposite.
Professor Flammarton has reduced Hug
gins's calculations to a system, arranging
them upon charts. These ingcniously
constructed heavenly outlines show that
100, 0oOf years ago tho Clipper" STARS
were arranged in the outline of large
and irregular shaped cross, AID that 100,-
600 years hence they will have assumed

Electrified Seeds.

The results of the application of c.ec-
tricity to seeds and to gro wing plants are
curious. Mr.. N. Specnew has described
the latest experiments in Practical Elee-
tricity. In one series he used seeds of
haricot beans, sunflowers, and winter and
spring rye. The seeds were soaked, cleo,
trifed, and Immediately sown. The
plants were more developed, their leaves
we're larger, and their color brighter than
those grown from electrified seed,
but the yield was not affected In an
other series of experiments plates of cop
per and zinc about two feet by two feet
six inches were buried at the ends OF the
plots and connected by their upper faces,
the effect being to establish current
through the earth. The result was mani
tested by larger crop and by the growth
of vegetables of enormous dimensions.
In third series electrical collectors were
mounted on insulated roads, and con-
nected by wires, the effect being to OBJ
tain @ highly electrified atmosphere.
Seeds of rye, corn, oats, barley, peas,
clover, potatoes, and flax were used.
This form OF electro-culture increased the
yield of seed au average of one-haN, and
that of straw one-third. while TIC rlpcn-
ing was more rapid. Chicago Mhs.

Astonishing Fertility Of Australia

Professor E. NJ. Shelton, of Kansas,
who was appointed Government Agricul-
tural Agent of Australia, writes enthu-
siastically of the agricultural and min
eral resources of the country lie says
American farmers would be astonished at
the products of Australian fields. Two
or three crops are often grown in one
year from the same ground. There arc
no checks to crops from cold weather,
and no feeding season to be provided for.
Fruits of all kinds grow in abundance.
The light-wooded country has the ap.
pearance of beautiful park covered with
a magnificent growth of grass, often
waist high. Great fortunes have been
made from the sugar industry. In the
midst of all its bounty, farm products are
very high; pork, twenty-five to forty
cents apound; corn, fifty cents to 81. SO
per bushel; hay, $25 to $40 ton

An African Romance.

Frank Hall has Just returned to
America from South Africa. He had
entered Matabcleland against the Kings
orders, was captured and held prisoner
for eleven months by the King of that
nation.
Hall and two other prospectors left
Kimberly in November, 1885, to pros
pcct further north. Upon reaching Swat
land they were warned by the King to
return, as it meant danger to pass
through his country, and he did not wish
to fall out with the whites.
Nothing dauntcd tho prospecting
miners pushed on and reached the coun-
try of the savage Matatclis. Here they
were offered an escort to go through the
country, but were forbidden from sur.
veying or examining any land. They
evaded the guard and struck some rich
alluvial deposits of gold, which in re-
atty belongs to the British South Afri-
can Company. The band was captured
and held prisoners for eleven months,
and were only released when the South
African Company marched 1000 men to
the frontier and declared that unless the
company was permitted to work its con-
