Manufacturers Against Growers

BosroN March 14th.-The Commercial
Bulletin will announce tomorrow the or
ganization of a new association OF wool
manufacturers which will depose the old
National Association, of which William
Whitman is President. The new associa-
ton will resist the extreme demands of
wool growers. Some fifty manufacturers
responded to the first call, representing
every class of wooden manufacturers. The
Bulletin will say: The original meeting
included representatives even from Phila-
delphia, and if the extreme measures pro-
posed by Mckinley are actually incorpor-
ated in the bill, it is likely they will be
joined by the carpet manufacturers in a

Your billions of ANCESTORS.

Did you ever think. says the st.
Louis Republic. how many male and
female ancestors were required to bring
you into the world? First. it was nee
essary that you should have father
and mother-that makes two human
beings. Again. each of them must
have had father and mother-making
eight more human beings. So on we
90 back to the time of Jesus Christ
tifty-six generations. The calculation
thus resulting shows that 132, 235. 017,-
4S9, ,534. go births must have taken
place in order to bring you into this
world-you, who read these lines All
this since the birth of Christ-not since
the beginning of time. According to
Proctor. if from single pair, for 5. 900
years, each husband and wife had
married at 21 years of age and there
had been no deaths, the population of
the earth would be 2,199,915 followed
by 144 ciphers. 1t would require to
hold this population a number of
worlds the size of this. equal to 3. 1885,
526 followed by 125 ciphers. The hui
man mind shrinks in contemplating
such immense numbers.

"Nonc So Deaf"

1t has been noticed that sometimes
people who are slightly deaf appear to
he able TO hear certain sounds better
than they are others, SAYS the Youths
Companion. and from this the proverb
"none so deaf as those who won't hear"
has arisen. The story is well-known
one of the rich father who was some

by his scrapegrace son:
Father. will YOU give me $50"

hand TO his ear.

Great Minds AZ Sea.

Many of the greatest minds of the
world have been upon the ocean, but
how few great thoughts have been con-
ceived at sea, says the Ocean. Men of
the highest genius seem to be trans
formed as soon as they get at a dis
tanee from land in a rolling vessel
There is an inability to control the
mind while at sea, a difficulty in con-
ceHtrating the attention on the task Of
even writing in ones diary. or reading
even the most triiing fiction. From
this experience the best disciplined
minds are not free. When at home on
land they can, without friction or dis.
turbance. carry on mental operations
even while many are talking or playing
about them; their faculties are so well
poised that they obey the word of COM
inand, but at sea they can do nothing
with the intellect. Were it not for the
impossibility Of controlling the intel
lectual forces a ship on a long voyage
would be the best conceivable retreat
for those who wish TO think, or write,
or read.
