A Mammoth Spring.

The largest and most wonderful
spring of fresh water in the world is
on the gulf coast of Florida in Herman
do county. The Wekowechee river, a
stream large enough to float small
steamer, IS made entirely OF water
spouted from this gigantic natural
we'll, which is go feet in diameter and
about 70 or 80 feet deep. Chemists
who have analysed the water say that
there is not trace of organic matter
in its composition, and that it is the
most pure and fresh of any spring in
America. A dime tossed into the
spring can be seen lying on the
bottom as plainly as itcould in a glass
of common we'll water. The steamer
which makes regular excursion trips
up and down the Wekowechee is often
foated into the cavity of the spring,
but cannot be made to stay in the
center, as the force OF the rising water
forces it to the sides of the basin.
The spring and 1000 acres of land
adjoining belong to two Chicago capt.
talists, who are making it a pleasure
resort.

A Golden" Rule for Advertisers

Said a gentleman, the managing
man OF a concern, 1.-The only rule I have
for determining whether or not a
paper is desirable one for our house
to use as an advertising medium is to
ascertain if the paper, upon examina-
ton, has interest for me as a reader:
l go through its columns carefully and
consider what is being presented from
month to month to its subscribers and
readers, and then attempt to conceive
Of the kind of people who are likely to,
take the paper in order to obtain such
information or such reading matter.

enables me to weed out many papers

= AS more agreeable substitute for
ordinary burial than cremation, Rev.
Chas. r. Treat proposes entombinr
the dried bodies OF the dead. BY a
suitable arrangement of buildings, he
would pass dry air through the tomb
to absorb all moisture and morbifie
matter, which it would convey to a
furnace in a separate structure. This
process would preserve the form OF
the body, while cremating all that is
subject to decay.

A Modern Courtship.

"Because you're from the town." she said
'And live in style, you know,
Dear, don't it make you blush to see
Your girl in calico?''
"Ive always lived here on the farm
And cannot compare
With city girls who dress in style
And know just what to wear"
Her fresh, sweet face was now upturned
To his. She heaved sigh.
SSAnd yet might (she looked quite grave,
Be stylish if try" -
"No, no." he cried, as close he wrapped
Her in his manly arms
''I'll take you, darling, as you are,
Without the city charms.
cpl take you and I'll cherish you,
You and your goodly pile,
For your papa's swell farm, my dear,
Is more to me than style"

A Parallel Case.

The Indifference of the English to
the sufferings of the Irish has been
the subject of remark among intelli-
gent people. The only similar case
we know of lis that of a gentleman
who took a rather broad view OF
things in general, and who had the
misfortune ito lose his wife. Seei ng
him few days afterwards without
any badge of mourning, friend re-
monstrated, and limited that when so
close a relationship was broken, the
courtesies of life required some recog-
milton of it in the style'of dress.
"Quite true" replied the afflicted
man, but don't you, see Maria was no
relation OF mine I'only married her,
and why should paat on black"
England regards Lraland pretty
much in the same light. They are
connected, but not related, and except
in squandering her resources, Ireland
receives but little consideration at
the hands OF her lord and master.

ExAGGERATION.
1t Is Fault That Most People Show in General
Conversation

CONVERSATION.
One of the common vices in ordi-
nary conversation, as we'll as in written
speech, is the habit of making reck-
lessly exaggerated statement of facts
or circumstances. Its long utilization
with coarse and cheap humor has given
it currency among US beyond all de-
serts-if any merit it really has. There
is so much to be said against it-as a
stale device of provincial buffoonery
or coarse waggery while there is so
little to recommend it, except perhaps
as a wand in the hand of a genius like
Rabelais-one is inclined to wonder
that it has not long ago banished utter
ly, at the least, from all well-bred in
tercourse.
Firstly, to practice it, without speci-
fic design or as vehicle for humor,
usually betrays frivolous disposition,
an irregular imagination or a slovenly
inattention to important details.
Next, it indicates an almost reckless
disregard of moral accuracy and
carelessness of the effect OF language
upon another: which, to say the least,
are by no means respectful to ones
auditor. Again, although it may not
even suggest the notion of willful
perversion of actual fact or any intent
harmfully to deceive another, yet it
insensibly begets, when accustomed to
hear this sort Of talk, a habit of hear
ers OF paying but little attention to
such a speakers statements. 1t dis
sociates all seriousness from what he
may say, and finally they regard him
as a common laughter, whose speech
does not deserve ordinary notice.
Moreover it produces a bewildering
effect upon the general listener. which
is quite incompatible either with a
serious interest in, or care to re-
member, what is thus said; and in the
end is like to cheat the speaker of
more than half his due, because of
his common discredit as narrator, or
reporter.
Perhaps it is sometimes notinexcus-
able IN an earnest advocate or a real
humorist whose reputation for good
sense is unclouded, who seeks to pro-
duce an immediate effect and is not
supposed to be limited by an obliga-
ton to speak with impartial accuracy.
Nevertheless its habitual use tends, in
most cases, to destroy the capability
for judicial impartiality, where such a
faculty exists-precisely as contrary
habit of conscientious accuracy OF
statement usually runs with fairness
of Judgment. When Rufus Choate,
who habitually revelled in hyperbole,
was asked to accept a judicial Office,
he declined emphatically, saying
truthfully: 1T would destroy my
powers of exaggeration.' -Home

DROWNED LANDS oFFLoRlDA.
The Vast Area That is Rapidly Being Fully Re-
VI F#e claimed. - #. 49,

Law claimed. IT.
Florida has already acquired great
distinction for its large products of
fruits and early vegetables, Florida
oranges being sweetest OF any that are
sold In the eastern markets. 1t has
also become famous as winter health
resort. But its greatest distinction of
all will be the vast area of arabic
lands which it will be able to offer to
enterprising men in the course OF a
few years. A very considerable por-
ton of southern Florida consists of
land overlooked or subject to overflow
swamp lands, in short, for the mo st
part, that at one time were the fast
nesses of the Indians, who were not
driven out of them until after several
long and bloody wars. The massacre
of Dade and his command, caught in
an ambush, rivaled the massacre of
Custer and his command by the Sioux
at later date.
These overlooked lands, with their
lakes, of which Lake Okeehobee alone
covers an area of 1000 square miles,
were regarded as practically worth
less, and efforts were made by the
state to sell part of them to capital
lists who would drain and improve
them. Four millions of acres were
offered to an English syndicate at
twenty-five cents per acre, but before
the papers were drawn up there was a
change of administration and the con-
tract was repudiated. These 4 million
OF acres were subsequently bought by
Hamilton Disston of Philadelphia, and
other capitalists, who joined with him
in the purchase. They were not the
mon to let their property lie idle.
Surveys were made and a scheme of
drainage adopted which has been in
progress for the past ten years.
What might be called a construction
| company was organizd which agreed
to undertake the work of reclamation
If given a grant with every alternate
square mile if redeemed. The under
growth was cleared off, the lines OF
drainage canals marked out and steam
dredges set to work. These dredges
are excavating canals from eight to
twelve feet in depth and from forty to
10 feet wide, and the work has so
far progressed as to afford passage for
low draft steamers from Charlotte har-
Dor, on the gulf coast, to Kissimmee
City, at the head of Lake Kaliga.
