Sam thought he was going to die, and
began to unburden his sin laden soul:
"Marse John, Use gwine ter die, but

And various and sundry other things
that had been missed at different times
we're mentioned by Sam and their
whereabouts disclosed. When Sam
had confessed his misdeeds, he seemed
to get better-confession is good for
the body as well as the soul. He finally
recovered but he now moves about the

1t is found expedient TO give the cat
tie that are brought from the ranches
of the Canadian northwest near the
Rocky mountains a chance to rest dur
ing their long journey to the Atlantic
coast. Cattle are not tortured with
hunger and thirst and tired to death
with the tucessant jolting of the cars
day after day as they were when cattle
shipments first became large item of
railroad traffic. Every steer that is
taken on board the cattle cars of the
Canadian Pacific at the western ranches
is turned loose when he gets to White
River, north of Lake Superior, into
large stockyards, where he has a
chance to recuperate.
Plenty of feed and running water
are supplied for the animals, and after
a days rest they continue their jour
ney. Cattle shippers find that it pays
to give stock such an opportunity to
recover from the fatigue of the long
trip, and it is certainly a humane as
well as profitable feature of the cattle
trade. New York Sun.

Earth Growing in weight.

1t hardly seems possible that the
earth could increase in weight appre-
ciably from the meteoric hail to which
1t is subjected The few shooting stars
one sees seem utterly incapable of pro
ducing any noticeable increase. 1t is
not these, of which even a close OBJ
server could scarcely count an average
of four an hour on a clear night, but
the myriads of lesser ones that are
never seen, unless accidentally crossing
the leld of an observers telescope, that
produce the result.
These lesser ones are of such slight
weight that the small amount of light
caused by their combustion in the
earth's atmosphere is not visible to the
naked eye However these little fel-
lows are continually bombarding the
earth day and night, year in, year out,
finally reaching the surface as a fine
dust. This increase in weight amounts
to about 10000 tons year at a very
moderate calculation. New York Re
