Discoveries ON Mercury.

Some very interesting discoveries
have lately been made on the planet
mercury by Schiapareli, the great
Italian astronomer. Such remarkably
acute eyesight has this man that he Is
able to discover spots on the planet
where other astronomers see only a
blank surface. By watching and
studying these spots during period OF
several years, Schiapareli was able to
determine the time Of rotation Of the
planet on it's axis and the angle which
its equator makes with the plane OF
its orbit. Schroeder a hundred years
ago, noticed q bunting of the horns
OF the planet when crescent, and from
these observations Herchel computed
that the planet revolved once in
twenty-four hours. Schiaparelli's OBJ
servatious show this to be entirely
wrong, for he observed the spots re-
peated1y on the same day without see
ing any signs of rotation. However,
from day to day he noticed a slight
change in the position Of the spots,
and finally found that the planet re-
volved on its axis in the same time
that it rotated around the sun, j. e., in
about eighty-eight days. It, there
fore, always turns the same surface
toward the sun, just as our moon does
toward the earth.-New York Com
mercial Advertiser.

A Mustang Hunt.

The necessities of q mustang hunt con-
Quoted on wholesale lines include COR
raj, grub wagon aud team, and three
hunters. When:all is ready, the hunt
ers arrange themselves in as many
watches of eight hours each one drives
the wagon, the second sleeps in the
wagon, and the third "walks" the mus
tsngs. "Walking" mustangs is simple.
The theory of the hrnt is to Keep the
Wild ponies on the walk, night aud day,
without food or water, until they are ex.
hausted. As far as may be they are
walked in circle, so as to be Hear the
corral intended as the final goal of this
go-as-you, please match against nature.
The process is this: The hunters, with
their wagon, drive in sight of the mus.
tang, and the frat man takes their trail
on foot. For eight hours he walks after
them keeping them constantly on the
move, and as much IS possible from
feeding and from water. The last is not
30 difficult in a land where watering
places are exceptional.
In the beginning the foolish mustang
kicks up his joyous heels and curvets
about, tossing his name in contempt Of
this SOLITARY, slow pursuit; but as the
hours wear on, the dusky plodder, stick
ing like bad habit, is not to be shaken
of, the fugitives becomes less gay. They
sober down to walk, and are not go
prone to light and frivolous exercisee.
At the end of eight hours the wagon
drives up, and number two of the hun.
ters begins his eight hour walk. At its
close number three assumes the pursuit,
aud SO, changing every eight hours, the
weary march keeps on. All that day
and night the ponies are kept moving.
All the next day and night sees the pro.
gramme repeatsd; and the work contin.
ues until, without food or water, without
having closed their eyes or rested their
tired legs since the hunt began, the
tired and sleepy mustangs totter along
almost as tame as house dogs, and fairly
dead on their feet. When reduced to
this condition, sapped Of that gay, frisky
nature that distinguished them at first,
the hunters turn their dropping, drowsy
heads to the corral and drive them in as
unresisting as sheep.

The Forgetfal Employee.

A successful business man says there
were two things which he learned when
he WAS eighteen which were afterward of
great use to him, namely: "Never to
lose anything, and never to forget any.
thing"
An old lawyer sent him with an i'm
portant paper with certain Instructions
what to do with it. "But," inquired the
young man, Suppose I lose it, what
shall I do then ?'
"You must not lose it,
ri do not mean to-" said the young
man; "but suppose Iahould happen to ?"
"But say you must not happen to;
I shall make no provision for such an
occurrence; you must not lose itp'
This put new train of thought into
the young mans mind, and he found
that if be MAS determined to do thing
ha could do it. He made such provis-
ion against every contingency that he
never lost anything. He found this
equally true about forgetting. If a GER
tain matter of Importance was to be re-
membered, he pinned it down in his
mind, fastened it there and made it stay.
He used to say: "When man tells me
he forgot to do something, I tell him he
might as we'll have said, I do not care
enough about your business to take the
trouble to think about it again."
Ionce had an intelligent young man
in my employ who deemed it sufficient
excuse for neglecting any important task
to say, II forgot it." I told him that
would not answer. Ifhe was sufficiently
interested he would be careful to remem-
eber. It was because he did not care
enough that he forgot it. drilled him
with this truth. He worked for me three
years, and during the last Of the three he
MAS utterly changed in this respect He
did not forget q thing. His forgetting be
found was a lazy, careless habit of the
mind, which he cured.

HOW to Enjoy Winter Baths.

Probably nothing is SO neglected
during winter time as bathing. There
is a natural dislike to bathing when
one gets chilled afterward. This could
be- avoided, writes a doctor in The
London Lancet, if bathrooms were
heated all the time, not just when one
wants to bathe, but continually dur
ing the day and evening. The trouble
of starting fire often deters one from
taking bath. The bathrooms should
be heated very warm, not merely
enough to take the 'chill off the air, u
but enough to prevent the bather re-
ceiving a chill after his bath, and to
permit him to bathe without hurry
