What Chaff Is For.

The chaff which surrounds all kinds of
grain has very important economic uses.
In it's wild state this chaf saves the seed
from exposure to weather, sometimes in
severe seasons only one or two grains
escaping damage by winters exposure.
When first cultivated most kinds of grain
had doubtless much more abundant chaf
than now. The original wild Indian corn,
in which each grain has husk of its own,
is an illustration of this. But chaf even
now serves a very important purpose. 1t
allows the grain to dry out in stacks and
mows, without heating so as to injure
the seed. Grain threshed before this
drying out is accomplished heats much
more injuriously in the granary.
Sometimes in threshing oats that have
been drawn in wet, we have seen the
straw blackened by heating around the
bands, while the heaps kept separate by
the chaff showed each grain bright and
uninjured. Wheat that has strong
bearded chaff is usually strong grower,
as its generating power is less apt to be
uosrrUy eu ny Rsessoisyy -fss~ ssso-ssso~s xbfs
fact secures the continued popularity of
these sorts, despite the unpleasantness of
working among bearded grain. Reaping
machines that bind grain with twine
as soon as cut, make the chaff even
more necessary. 1t is not any more
difficult to work among, and it does help
to keep grain from being injured through
imperfect drying before moving away

An Agent for Pneumonia.

The fan answers many purposes other
than for the cooling of its wielder, but
few appreciate the fact that it can be
made an effective agent for pneumonia.
"Talk about the early martyrs" said a
lady in the hearing of a Boston Herald
man, as she came out of crowded con-
cert room the other evening. "They are
absolutely nothing to me. Here l am,
just up from an attack of influenza, and
I'll warrant myself to have another at
tack, and all for the selfish stupidity of
one old woman with a fan. / wish peo-
pie had more consideration, or sense, or
something" and the speaker stopped to
sneeze and pull her wraps closer about
her throat. "And she sat there by your
side, and waved one of those strong,
gusty fans, creating breeze like a
young whirlwind, until you are oil of q
chill, 1 suppose" said her friend. "In-
deed, yes, and the more l pulled up my
scarf the harder she famed. There
wasn't vacant seat in the house, or
would have taken it. i didn't like to ask
her to stop, for she hadn't specially
inviting countenance. And have taken
severe cold, for every bone in my body
aches. think there should be a rule
against fans in crowds, just as there is
against canes and umbrellas in art gal
leries. You can mend statues or build
more, but there isn't remedy that l
know of when we once are dead from
somebody's carelessness or Indifference" !"

POSTAL GROWTH.

mr.. Wanamaker Thinks 1t Calls for RE-
duced Charges, Etc.
Three OF the subjects which the POST
master General viii discuss In his
Forthcoming annual report are 1-cent
postage. free delivery In smell towns,
and postal telegraphy. Upon the
hrst subject the Postmaster Gem
eral WIN refer 70 the large number OF petit
tions that he has received during the past
year asking for the establishment of the
1-cent rate. Mr.. Wanamaker Will not rec
ommend such change In the postal laws,
but will lay all the facts In his possession
before Congress for that body to act upon.
He will say that 1-cent postage would be a
good thing and should be brought about as
early as possible, but he Is convinced that
its Inauguration would necessitate the en-
ployment of a much larger force OF men,
the increase In the size OF postal cars and
the enlargement of the postoffices, among
other things. Whether the disadvantage
growing out of a decreased postage rate
would not more than Offset the conveniences
which that rate would induce is a matter
which will be left TO Congress to determine.
In that part OF the report which will treat
OF the extension OF free delivery to small
towns Mr.. Wanamaker will speak very posi-
lively. He expects to show that the recent
extension OF that system on its present
limited scale has paid for itself From that
he will argue In substance that, as IL Is a
good and inexpensive convenience, the
country ought to have more of it.

The HORSEPOWER Of Whales.

Sir William Turner, the present emil
nent professor of anatomy in the Uni
versity of Edinburg, Scotland, has given
much attention to the study of whales,
their structure, habits, etc. He es-
timates that the great Greenland whale
(average length 80 feet attains maxi
mum speed while swimming of ten miles
an hour; the "Finner" whale maximum
length IS feet) often making twelve to
fourteen miles an hour. Mr.. Turner, in
one of his lectures, said that he and
John Henderson, of Glasgow, the we'll
Known huffylcs> Of tlso. 1Assyl.-,. f.s..o.-&---~
ships, had spent much time in trying to
arrive at satisfactory conclusion as
to the horsepower exerted by large
species of the whale in making a speed
Of twelve miles an honr. AS base for
their conclusions they took the size and
dimensions of the great "Finner," which
was stranded on the shore Mt Longuiddry
some years ago. 1t was 80 feet long,
weighed "a tons and had tail which was
20 feet across at the extreme end of its
fanges. With these data, Messrs.
Turner and Henderson calculated that u
whale of the dimensions mentioned, in
order to attain a speed of twelve miles
an hour, must exercise propelling force
of 145 horsepower!

the most faithful, untiring and devoted
of nurses-the most unselfish and loving
Of friends and cousins; and before the
wedding day came around, she and Helen
were as devoted as sisters, and when that
day did come old Money-bags was the
most generous Of uncles. And when
Helen kissed me goodbye that day, she
said with happy tears in her pretty dark
eyes:

love and bless you! The brightest day
of my life, except this, is that on which
you rushed Floy in upon her ayenging

Before Philip left with his wife he told
me, at Helen's request, what he told no
one else-the story of their poverty and
separation. Helens father had been
Philips guardian, and after his death 1t
was found that he had appropriated and
squandered the whole of Philips fine for
tune. Philip tried to keep this from
Helen, but in some way she learned IL,
and her grief, modification and despair
were terrible to see. She thought that
Philip would scorn TO marry the daughter
of dishonest man. So after she and
her mother had settled all of that small
fortune upon Philip-for both felt keenly
the disgrace, and wished to make what
reparation they could-they quietly left
the city, giving Philip no hint OF their
destination.
~ knew she was heroine?" said, an
slapped Philip on the back.
Mrs. Trevor remained with tho Gar
risons until Philip and Helen returned
from their brief trip, then she went with
them to the cosy little home that Col.
Garrison gave Philip on his wedding day.
My gift to my beautiful girl was COM

every day or so as she drives by and mods
and smiles at me.
Well, it is always the unexpected that
happens. When that boy of mine,
Walter Heathcote, came home from
college, ready for a partnership with his
old father, what should he do but fall in
love with that pretty little simpleton,
Floy Garrison, and make her Mrs. Heath

Our fortitudss; the willows and ferns too

Our foolish frailty or pliancy proclaim;
The dawns are our pure deeds; the erratic

Our pictured lives from their terrestrial

Wherefore the closelier that We lean to look,

DIED IN THE WOODS.

n Pennsylvania wilderness.

The skeleton of Missing Man Found In
y Pennsyivania wilderness.
Last April a ten-year-old boy named os-
car Farley was lost in the woods in the wild
region west of Gainesville, Pa A party of
men spent three days In securing the coun-
try in search of the lost boy, and found him,
barely alive and three miles from home.
It was not until the next day that
alarm was manifested over the non-ap-
pearance of Farley Homes, one of the
searchers and an uncle of the lost boy.
For days another hunt was kept up for the
missing man, but he could not be found
Recently, two bark peelers discovered the
skeleton OF a man in the woods not far
from the spot where the Farley boy had
been found. By fragments OF clothing the
remains were identified as those of Farley
Homes IL is supposed that he had slipped
and fallen from the rocks while searching
for his nephew, and had either been killed
or SO badly hurt that he died from his In

DOWN AN ENHANCEMENT.
Frightfuf Wreck on the Union Pacific
Railway In Colorado.

A Denver (CoL) special says; Passenger
train No. ala, bound toward Denver on
the Graymont Division OF the Union
Pacific Railway, was wrecked near
Beaver Brook Station, and twenty-six
passengers were injured, fve OF whom will
probably die. The train was late and run
ming rapidly, and when rounding a sharp
curve the express car left the track and
rolled down a fifteen foot embankment It
was followed by the mail and two passen-
ger coaches, one of which turned
over twice before reaching the bot
som. The train was loaded with passen-
gers, many OF whom were knights OF
Pythias who were returning from the
Knights OF Pythias State convention which
was held at Aspen last week. When the
news reached Golden. Col, a wrecking
train was ordered out and was starting
when Robert Pruin, an employe OF the road,
attempted to board the engine. In doing
90 his revolver fell from his hip pocketethe
hammer striking a stone, and the weapon
was discharged, the ball taking effect In the
mans neck, making a wound which VIII
