Thomas Day, the author Of Stanford
and Merton" book which several
generations Of children have enjoyed
for it's stories without bestowing 4
thought on its philosophy, was horn in
Wellclose Square in 1748. His father
held q place in the custom-house, and
left him fortune of $1,000. He was
educated at the Charterhouse and Ok
ford, and spent some time in France,
where he received the new philosophy
of educa ton. Having resolved on mar
riage, he determined that his wife
should be modelled in accordance with
the new light. He therefore went to an
orphan asylum at Shrewsbury and
picked out faxen-haired girl of
twelve, whom he named Sabrina Sid
ney, after the Severn and Algernon
Sidney, and then the founding hos
pital in London, where he selected
= second, whom he called Lucretia. In
taking these girls he gave written
pledge that within year he would
place one Of them with q respectable
tradesman, giving 500 to bind her ap-
prentice, and that he would maintain
her 1t she turned out we'll until she was
married or commenced business, in
either OF which case he would advance
$780, With Sabrina and Lucretia he
set out for France, in order that in quiet
he might discover and discipline their
characters. He, however, quarreled
with tho girls. Noxt day they took
smallpox, and he had to nurse them
night and day, and by and by he was
glad to return to London and get
Lucretia of his hands by apprenticing
her to milliner on Ludgate hill. She
behaved we'll, and on her marriage to a
substantial linen-draper Day cheer
fully produced his promised
dowry of $500. Poor Sabrina
could by no means qualify for Mr.. Day.
Against the sense of pain and danger no
discipline could fortify her. When Day
dropped melting sealing-wax on her
arms she flinched, and when he fired
pistols at her garments she started and
screamed. When he told her secrets
she divulged them. He packed her off
to an ordinary boarding-school, kept her
there for five years, allowed her ESQ
year, gave her $500 ON her marriage to
a barrister, and when she became
widow, with two boys, he pensioned her
with $50 year. In 1883 he married
Miss Mines, of Wakefield, lady whose
opinions coincided with his own. He
was killed September 80, 1889, by kick
from young horse, which he was try
ing to train on a new method.-London

stor ingalls,, Of Kansas.
With profound regret we learn that
His Royal Highness, the Prince Of
wales, has resolved so far to withdraw
MS patronage and sanction from En-
gllsh literature as to permit nobody to
nse MS name in soap advertisement.
ny the way, this reminds us of some
thing that once happened to Senator In.
rails. Mr.. David Lewsley, who was at
that time reporter for q Washington
journal, was sent to hold interview
with the Senator upon an important
matter of state. The Senator, who had
no intention whatever of being drawn
into conversation on that subject, met
Mr.. Lewsley with his accustomed grace.
and courteously veered the converse ton
into other channels. Somehow, for want
Of another handy subject, the Senator
said something about boards, which led
to BARRIERS, and, of course, to the gen.
eral subject of shaving.
'By all MEANS" said Senator ingalls,,
''you should learn to shave yourself"
and then he went on with a learned.
thoughtful and highly entertaining dis
QUESTION on the advantages, economic
and metaphysics, of shaving oneself
rather than hiring a barber to do it.
Mr.. Lewsley paid careful attention to
all the Senator said, fixed facts and
dates in his mind, and said nothing.
When the Senator had related his own
varied EXPERIENCES with razors and
brushes and soaps, recommending this
make OF blade and that brand of lather
to Mr.. Lewsley's use, the reporter, con-
vinced that he could not learn what he
had come to learn, arose to 20. There
was, or the reporter imagined there was.
sort OF merry, triumphant twinkle in
Senator Ingalls, eye as he politely
bowed his caller from the room-a
twinkle which seemed to say: have
made the young man really forget what
he came for.''
The next morning Senator Ingalls,
was more or less Mortified at finding in
the local newspapers true report of all
he had said, including an earnest rec.
ommendation of certain shaving soap,
which he unqualifedly pronounced to
be the very best that could be had.
But tho reporters vengence was not yet
satisfied. He marked the article and
sent it to the manufacturer of the rec.
commended soap. In fortnight the
newspapers, the periodicals, and all the
many means employed by advertisers,
were brought into use, and Senator In.
gals eloquent eulogy of that soap was
printed in every form that could be de.
vised to attract popular attention. And
the worst of it was the Senator could
not deny that tho very expressions,
earnest and glowing as they were, were
| all his own.-Washington Post.

UP IN A BALLOON,
A Popular Theory Which Ia Not Based ON
Scientific Facts.

A Popular Theory Which Ia Not Based on
Scientific Facts.
The observations made during night
ascensions, or those which were contin-
ued into the night, on temperatures at
different heights, give results different
from the theories previously held on
the subject. An increase of the temper
ature with the height was noticed after
sunset. The rate of decline of tempera-
ture with elevation when near the earth
was subject to variation as the sky was
clear or cloudy. From an elevation Of
three miles cirrus clouds we're seen ap-
parently as far above the observers as
they seem when viewed from the earth,
and that under such conditions that it
was hard to believe that their presence
was due to moisture. The audibility of
sounds from the earth depended consid-
erably on the amount of moisture in the
air. The noise of a railway train
could be heard in clouds at four
niles high, but not when the clouds
were far below. The discharge of gun
was heard at 10000 feet; the barking Of
dog at two miles; but the shouting of
multitude at not more than 1000 feet
Many differences in the results of OBJ
servations were supposed to depend upon
atmospheric conditions, while these
vary with the time of day and the season
Of the year; so that great many OBJ
servations would be required to deter
mine the true laws. Having followed
up one of the observations recorded
above with a captive balloon and by
other means, Mr.. Glaisher declared to
the Meteorological Society in 1870 that
the theory that the temperature is al
ways lower at higher elevations is not
true. Popular Science Monthly.

CONTAMINATED WATER.
Impurities Usually Present in tho Water
Supply Of Cities and Towns.

Impurities Usually Present In tho Water
Supply of Cities and Towns.
A writer in a Milwaukee journal,
speaking of the water supplies of cities
generally, says: To one who has for
many years examined with microscope
the water supply of cities, it appears
incredible that persons can be found
who are willing to take into their sys-
toms the denominations and filth which
are all the time present. The water
swarms with life, to which must be
added the vegetable forms, almost as
numerous, and finally the millions of
bacteria, and infusoria whose numbers
are imitless.
Such things are Objectionable enough
when living, but they die and rot like
larger animals, often by change of tenn
perature merely, in such immense num-
bers as to charge the drinking water
with sulphureted hydrogen; this causes
the offensive, putrid odor noticed
again on the banks of lakes,
in which water is stored for
city and town supply, there abound
masses of weeds of all descriptions
which die in due season and rot. In
this condition vegetable matter passes
into the water supply, and being COM
minuted by friction in pipes, appears in
minute PARTICLES, which can be seen
floating in every glass of water.
People who hold up to the light q
glass of water which looks bright and
good, excepting this innocent, fine-look-
ing sediment, little think that when the
sediment is accumulated in bulk, it has
the odor of tobacco juice, and sicken-
ing odor as repulsive as filth can make
it. Who would eat such a mass of con-
Examinations? Then, why drink it in
small quantities in every glass of water
you use? Typhoid fever turks in every
particle of this deposit, and the smallest
doses carry contagion.
The same forms and impurities are
usually present in the water supply Of
all cities and towns.

width around the foot of the skirt, are

basque cut up in square tabs, and
trimmed with black velvet, overlaid
with fiat gold braid. Fancy vests and
ample waistcoats remain in highest
favor, the Continental vest being a
prime favorite with natty young ladies.
These useful as we'll as ornamental ad-
ditions appear in every sort of guise,
and on gowns of every description, add
ing greatly to the stylish effect of a
gown. A graceful and still very popular
arrangement is the doub vest, in which
the outer one Stimulates low-cut,
double breasted waistcoat, while the in
ner one, briar.stitched, plated in shirt
waist fashion and made of China silk,
reaches to the throat and below the
double-breasted vest which always ends
at the belt. The Picadilly woods, En-
glish meltons, Ombre and Carnarvon
stripes, bordered goods and Lincolnshire
diagonals are in Directoire styles as a
rule, while the India cashmeres, cancels

woods are made up with slight pannier
draperies on the hips; others have
classic Greek draperies crossing the
fronts.
