There he poured his sorrows into

who had been the Queen confessor.

still sufficient to regain the ear Of

A Glance AT London society.

Take the vast London society. 1t is
a stiff-necked dress parade in which
one meets ones best friend once a
fortnight and strangers in proportion.
People never know each other well
and are almost suspicious OF those they
do know. Invitations are sent out
from one to two months ahead and
people come and go without making u
visible impression, and there is none
OF that merry familiarity which makes
American life so enjoyable. A dinner
is set affair. with no general CONVEX
sation and total absence of what the
French call esprit; in fact most OF the
Englishman's pleasures are of the
macintosh and umbrella kind. The
Londoner is always guarded and sus-
picious OF the stranger and / don't
wonder, considering some OF the
Americans he has had showed uoon
him. But after all. there are too
many people in London; it is impossi-
BILE to expect freedom. familiarity and
hospitality among such multitude. =

REVEALED in A DREAM.
How Father OF Boy In Gray Recovered
His Sons Remains.

How Father OF Boy In Gray Recovered
His Sons Remains.
One of the bloodiest battles fought
on Georgia soil during the late war
was that of Resaca says the Atlanta
Journal. Among the many patriotic
youths who took arms In defense OF
southern independence was the eight
een-yeor-old son OF Mr.. Jethro Jack
son, OF Griffin. Ca, and the brave boy
met his death at the battle OF Resaca.
He was dearly beloved by his COM
rades. and they gave him little bet
ter burial than usually falls to the lot
OF those who die upon the field OF bat
tie. With rough boards taken from
the bridge near by they made him a
rude coffin, and tenderly and lovingly
placed him under the sod.
II was sometime in the spring OF
1866 that Mr.. Jethro jackson went to
Resaca to look for the grave OF his son.
He wished to find the remains. and to
take them to Griffin and enter them in
the family burying ground. The COM
rades who laid young Jackson to rest
gave the father a description of the
spot where they had buried him. tell
ing him about the rude pine coffin
made from the boards taken from the
bridge. After many days OF tireless
search Mr.. Jackson failed to locate his
sons grave, and returned TO his home
in Griffin.
A few nights after his return he
dreamed that his son came to him and
pointed out the spot whore he was
buried. The dream was like vision.
He saw his son standing beside his
bed and heard him say:
Father, am buried under n mound
which was thrown up by the Yankees
after | was killed You will know the
mound when youseeit by the poke
berry bushes growing upon it. Go
and take me up and carry me home to
mother"
So strong an impression did this
dream make upon Mr.. Jackson that he
returned at once to Resaca, taking with
him one OF the. comrades who had
buried his son. The mound was found
just as described in the dream, and the
pokeberries were growing upon 1t. An
excavation was made, and few feet
below the earth the rough pine coffin
was found. and in it were the remains
of young Jackson. He was fully iden-
titled, not only by the coffin and the
shoes but by the name which was on
the clothing.

why He Doe.n,, Away. Upset.

Let us suppose cyclist mounted on
his wheel and riding say. toward the
north. He finds himself beginning to
tilt toward his right. He is now GO
ing not only north with the machine,
but east also. He turns the wheel
eastward. The point of support must
OF necessity travel in the plane OF the
wheel; hence it at once begins to go
eastward. and as it moves much faster
than the rider tilts it quickly gets
under him and the machine is again
upright. To one standing at dis
tances in front or rear, the bottom of
the wheel will be seen to move to the
right and left. conclude, then. that
the stability OF the bicycle is due to
turning the wheel to the right or left
whichever way the leaning is, and thus
keeping the point Of support under
the rider just as boy keeps upright
on his finger broomstick standing on
its smallest end.

A Description OF How Geographical
spheres Are Constructed.

4 >~--~~s -~~~---
The first process Is to cover the
model with thick layer OF pasteboard
In moist state. When 1t il dry a
sharp knife is passed around 1t so as
to separate the pasteboard coat into
two hemispherical shells which are
then taken of the model and united al
The cut edges with glue. The hollow
sphere thus formed is the skeleton Of
the globe that Is to De.
The next thing Is to cover 1t with a
coating OF white enamel about one
eighth OF an inch IN thickness. When
this Is done the ball is turned into a
perfect roundness with a machine.
The iron rod running through the CEN
tire Of the original model and project
ing at both ends through tho surface
has left holes In the new globe. which
serve for the north and south poles.
and through these metal axis Is
run to represent the axis OF the earth.
= Then the surface Is marked of with
pencil lines into mathematical seq
ncnts corresponding precisely in shape
with the sections OF map that are to be
pasted on. These map sections are
made from copper plates in just the
sizes and shapes required TO fit the
globe they are made for, one set. OF
course, covering the entire surface OF a
sphere. They are printed, many OF
them. like dress patterns, on sheets Of
the finest linen paper, and are cut out
carefully with q sharp-pointed knife.
When they have been pasted on. the
different countries are tinted by hand
with water colors There is no special
rule for this, except that contrasts are
sought to help the eye. Finally the
whole is overlaid with a brilliant white
varnish which is OF almost metallic
hardness, and it will wear indefinitely
without scratching and without losing
its brightness. Boston Transcript.
