Why Boys Arc Fond of Nature

have often read in stories of boys who
were fond of nature, and loved her sub
Unity and beauty, but I do not believe
boys are ever naturally fond of nature.
They want to make use of the woods and
fields and rivers; and when they become
men they find these aspects of nature
endeared to them by association, and so
they think they were dear for their own
sakes, but the taste for nature is as purely
acquired as the taste for poetry or the
taste for tomatoes. 1 have often seen
boys wondering at the rainbow, but it
was wonder, not admiration, that moved
them; and have seen them excited by a
storm, but because the storm was tre-
mendous, not because it was beautiful.

Texas one-Tenth tho Country,

A great many people want to know
how large Texas is in area. They look
in quite a number of alleged statistical
abstracts and never find the same figures
in two of them. Tho official figures of
Texas area are 252,696 square miles
equal to about SO per cent. of the entire
area of the United States and territories.
Texas is six times larger than New
York, seven times as large asOhio, and
100000 square miles larger than all the
eastern and middle states, including
Delaware and Maryland. Compared
with the countries Of Europe she has
"a 900 square miles more than the Aus
trian empire, G2, 600 more than the Ger
man empire, and nearly 10000 square
miles more than France.-Texas Trade

England's Tasto in Smoking.

The English cigars are made of Amer
ican tobacco, but fail in manipulation
according to our standard. They look
bright and "wooden' rather than like a
natural leaf product. When cigars were
introduced into England they all came
from Cuba, and this being before tho
days of steam the goods were five
or six weeks in transit, packed in
the vessels hold with no ventilation.
The cigars being made in humid eli
mate, packed while fresh, fermented and
generated afungus Qike mites in checse),
which tasted very bitter when smoked,
utterly destroying their value. 1t was
then discovered that by subjecting the
cigars to the dry heat of kiln the life
of the fungus was destroyed and the
cigar became smokable.
It is owing to this fact that the En-
glish insist on ''dry" cigars to the pres
ent day, and pinch them to see if they
crackle before they buy them. The cigar

After Forty Years IA Man Repays Kind
ness with Interest.
Forty years ago n lad came to this
city from the rural regions bearing i.
note to n retail shop keeper, who was
asked to try to find him something to do
in New York. The retailer took up the
lads case and got him q job in work
shop, where he stayed for years, or I'M
til he reached manhood, after which he
struck out west and there found a
chance of going into business for him
self. He prospcrcd in life as the years
sped along; he won wealth by the time
he had reached middle age; he rose to
distinction among his fellows; he be-
came powerful person in his state,
and for years past he stood among the
notablcs of the country. In all these
years, says the New York Sun, he had
never again seen the retailer who spent
ten minutes, forty years since, in find
ing him Il Job in 4 workshop in North
William street. A few days ago when
the ricli notable, who is now over fifty
years of age, was making visit to this
city, he determined to hunt up the re-
taller who had taken pains to give him
a start in life. lie found him in the old
retail shop, doing business in the old
way, neither rich nor notable. As
might be expected. the two raybcartls
did not know each other when they met,
and it turned out that the retailer had
forgotten that he ever rendered slight
service to country lad forty years ago
But the eminent man told him of it.
assured him that he owed all his sue
cess in life to the kindly act that had
given him start in his youth, and gave
expression to his gratitude for the act
in way that will relieve the aged re-
taller from worldly cares hereafter.

EARLY TRACES OF MAN.

lie Existed in Denmark and Scandinavia
Seven Thousand Years Ago
When was man first placed on earth?
No ono cau ans wer that question.
Hugh Mlllor aryn that tnnn'6 habit of
burylng hls dond out Of slight makes it
rery oasy to DO niatnlson on that point;
for, because OF BURIAL mems bones
may 10 found nmong Tho animals that
havo lcin i'll tho earth for ages. There
is ono thing, however. that gives us an
inkling OF when ho came. Certain
tools, that only man could have made,
have been found buried in caves, in
peat beds, and in the bottom of lakes.
Often these are covered by layers of
rock; and, by calculating how long it
took to make the layers, n guess can be,
made rs to when the tools were put
there. Still, it is only guess, and no
one pretcnds to regard the question as
settled, because under some conditions
the layers would be made much faster
than under others. But the bones of
certain animals, the mammoth and
other great creatures. OF that time,
which have long since died, have been
found with these tools, writes Theresa
Crofton in st. Nicholas. by calculat-
ing in what ages these animals lived,
and how long it takes race of ami
mails to die out, surcr result can be
arrived at. In u cave in England, bur-
led under Il limestone layer from one to
fifteen inches thick, tools have been
found mingled with the bones of Gle
plants, tigers, rhinoccroses and hyc-
mas, which roamcd over that country
thousands and thousands of years ago
The peat Dogs of what is now Denmark
and Scandinavia are filed with stone
tools. Some have been found in beds
of gravel, underlying peat which is
certainly seven thousand years old
This seems to show that man must
have dwelt on earth at least as many
wears aOO
