Machinery and Industrial Life.

Industrial life of today compared to
what it was twenty-five years ago can
but excite surprise and wonder. The
introduction of labor saving machinery
has, within this short time, wrought an
almost complete revolution in all the
activities belonging to production and
transportation; and on every hand-in
the country as we'll as in the city-ma-
chinery is found seconding, or alto
gether supplanting, physical toll, and
making it possible to accomplish in a
few hours what formerly would have
required days and weeks of labor.
In the professions the impress of the
revolution is perhaps less noted than in
other vocations, but even here the la
borious work of the pen has almost
been superseded by the little type
writer, that merrily clicks off folios of
manuscript. If copies of the neatly
printed pages are desired, it is, with the
aid of the letterpress, but the work of
a few moments, or if duplicates are re-
quired, the hectograph is at hand to
make any number of copies. An add
ing machine" handles figures as if by
magic.
Indirectly, machinery has made the
acquisition of knowledge an ease and
pleasure in producing a wealth of cheap
books, embracing every conceivable
subject SO arranged as to admit of
ready reference, thus saving weary
hours of research and enabling the in
tellectual toiler to accomplish in hours
what formerly necessitated days.-St
Louis Republic.

A Curious Superstition Among Thieves.
There is curious superstition COM
mon among all classes of the genus law
breaker regarding the power of can
die made from the body of a young
woman. The belief is that such can
die not only renders the perpetrators OF
robberies invisible, but that it throws
the victim or victims into a state OF
deep somnolency.
Within the last two years four igno-
rant Russian peasants murdered girl
and made candles out of her body.
Before the murderers were executed
they confessed that they committed
the crime to make themselves invisible
while perpetrating a robbery they had
planned.
In the Scotch criminal code of the
Eighteenth century there are express
penalties against this hideous candle
superstition. London Tit-Bits.

OLD TOMS CHRISTMAS DINNER.
He Had Set Out to Ear Postum, but He
Had His Misgivings.

| Had His Misgivings.
| had been invited to eat dinner that
Christmas with the colonel. While we
were waiting for the meal to be served
the colonel RECALLED me with 'possum
story about ga Niger l owned befo the
wah."
"You see," said he, "old Tom was very
fond of 'possum, and would go to any
length to secure one for his dinner. 1t
was just befo' Christmas in '57, think
| lhat Tom managed to capture large,
fat 'possum, which he skinned and pre-
pared for cooking on Christmas day.
When all was ready he went into his
cabin, took his prize out of the locker
and soon had it roasting on the spit.
Some sweet potatoes were added to the
menu, and old Toms eyes fairly rolled
with delight as he thought of the feast
in store for him.
"The prospect before him evidently
caused Tom to feel drowsy, for in few
ing at great rate. Through chink in
the cabin a pair of eager, envious eyes
had been taking in the scene. The eyes
belonged to another niger of mine
named Big jim. Well, the sight was
more than Jim could stand. The cabin
door was slyly opened, and in Jim
stalked. 'Umv said he as neared the
fire. The 'possum was just about done
and to turn. 'Umv said Jim again as
he jabbed a stick into the animal and
held it up before him. With many
grunts of satisfaction Jim soon had that
possum picked clean, nor did he forget
the sweet potatoes, which, favored with
the possum fat, were devoured with the
keenest relish.
1.-The meal over, Jim approached the
sleeper, and taking up some of the pos
sum bones he smeared old Toms lips and
face with them and then hurried out.
Very soon Tom awoke In stupefed
way he looked around him, saw the
bones and potato skins lying about and
smacked his lips as he tasted of the pos
sum fat with which Jim had smeared
his face.
Dunno said Tom, in great bewil-
derment; 'dar's de bones and dis yere
tastes like 'possum, but somehow pat
ting the region of his stomach) it don't |
appear as if any 'possum was down yere;
