CAPACITY OF THE EARTH.
Its Present Population aad the Number
1t VIII Hold.

IJS Present reputation anu Ine NunDeF
1t VIII Hold.
When will the earth have all the
people upon it that it can accommo-
date? That is question which some
sober economists and sociologists have
lately thought fit to take into serious
consideration, bringing to bear upon it
the light of statistical research.
Before the British Association for the
Advancement of Science, at its recent
meeting, Mr.. Ravenstein, a well-known
statistician, estimated that, whereas
the total popul alton of the earth is now
Il little less than one billion five hun
dred millions, there is room on the
earth for very nearly six billions of in
habitants.
That is to say, when the space on the
earth available for the support of
human beings is fully occupied, it will
be found capable of maintaining four
and half billions more of people than
it now contains, or four times as many
people as there are now in the world.
This seems, at first glance, to be
very encouraging to the human race.
But Mr.. Ravenstein says it is not, be-
cause the race is increasing, in these
days of civilization, security and easy
exchange among the nations, so very
much faster than it ever increased be-
fore that this margin will be exhausted
and the world be full in little over one
hundred and eighty years.
By the year 2072 according to Mr..
Ravenstein's calculations, the earth will
have the six billions of inhabitants who
are all that there is room for, and must,
as it were hang out the sign "Standing
room only" Living room there will
be none.
1t is interesting to know that there
were other men of science present at the
meeting of the British Association,
when these figures were given out, who
did not at all agree with Mr. Raven
STEMS conclusions. They insisted that
! it is impossible to calculate, at the
present time, what the ratio of increase
of the worlds population will be a gen
| Grafton or two hence, or what are the
earth's real capabilities for sustaining
life. Not only may the ratio of in
crease be sensibly altered but the nour-
ishing capacity of the earth may be
added to many fold.-Christian Union,

The museum of the Dead-Letter Of
Ace always interests visitors. There
they see what extraordinary things
people try TO send through the mails
and many interesting relics. There are
two big axes on exhibition which look
formidable enough for Administration
weapons and cause the practical sight
seer to wonder whose purse was long
enough to pay postage on such weighty
articles.
"a hitching-post, loaded revolver"
and sleigh-bells form trio of curiosi-
ties most unexpected among mail mat
ter. An Indian scalp and skull are
very appropriate relics for Uncle Sans
cemetery, but they must be uncanny
objects to find i1 mail pouch. Among
the odd things which attract attention
is a letter from the far Northwest
where lumber is evidently more abun-
dant than paper-written on a large
shingle.
1t has long been an open secret that
alligators, horned toads and all sorts of
reptiles are smuggled through the
mails if possible, AMI Uncle Sam has on
exhibition several specimens of the ami
NAL kingdom which he has confiscated.
Surrounded by many strange and in
congruous things is an old mailbag
stained with blood, which tells the
story of brave mans devotion to duty
even unto death-an Arizona mail
carrier who was killed by the Apache
Indians in 1885. Another interesting
relic is the ancient leather-bound vol
ume of fifty-three pages in which Ben
iamin Franklin kept the accounts of
the Government when he was Postmas-
| ter-General In still smaller book is
a record of the uncalled-for or misdi-
rected letters during eleven years-from
1777 to 17SS-which numbered three
hundred and sixty-fve We have made
rapid strides in century to reach an
average of eighteen thousand dead
letters" day. Although many of these
letters are resurrected, sent out into the
world again, and finally reach their
destination, there are multitudes, OF
course, beyond the ken even of Dead
| Letter Office clerk that can not be re-
turned to their owners. Alas! what
misery and misunderstanding may
have been caused by the loss of some OF
these letters! The happiness of life
time, perhaps, or the success. Never
theless, do not lay all the blame at
Uncle Sans door, for you know not
what you may have left undone that
| you ought to have done.
George Canning once said: 81 can
prove any thing by statistics except the
truth" Those people who are of his
opinion may still have doubts, in spite
of peep behind the scenes, of the
efficiency of the DeadLetter Office, as
the public no longer accepts the tradi'
ton that figures will not lie.-E. Z,
| Giddings, in n. Y. Ledger.

IN the barn and managed our country
place.
There had been several robberies in
1ur pretty town, mostly in outlying and
lonely houses such as ours, and no
traces could be had of the thieves in
spite of the large rewards offered or of
slle wise detectives sent from the adj
Sacent city. The burglaries had all
been skillfully done, nothing being
taken except silver plate and jewels,
and IN only one case was violence Of
Eered.
As ! said before, l was "head of the
HolJse, and in consequence there was
iIzf}e knowledge and no opposition to
thc plans l used to carry out my crack
Grained scheme.
in recess in our dining-rOom stood a
sz-ge, old-fashioned iron safe which
opened with big brass key and which
s,on1ained considerable silverware and
TsvvcIry. These l carefully packed and
skipped to our jeweler in the city.
To take their place | had sent out a
Lsac nf showy, plated stuff, which l care
sssly displayed in full view of the win
MINIS as a tempting bait fer the eX-
Eys5as1cd burglars.
IN the cellar beneath the safe was a
sluaII corner brick-walled room. with
csEC doors, and a narrow, outside win
s2yw- These l had filed with brick,
E.aaling the room strong and tight. In
FRONT OF the safe, just where one would
r1atllrally stand in opening it, had a
.sgnwe cut from the floor, beams and
AL and the hole neatly fitted with a
tagap, snch as is used in the theatcrs for
y-ssEtomimes, This cost me something,
ts7~ it was necessary to have stage car
pointer arrange it.
I'm my bedchamber, directly overhead,
I had a peep-hole made in the floor,
csyrsClgh which I could see the safe be.

TENDERNESS.

Not unto every heart is Gods good gift
OF simple tenderness allowed, we meet
with love in many fashions when we lift
First to our lips lifes waters, bitter sweet'
Love comes upon us with resistless power
OF curhless passion and with headstrong viii I;
II plays around like Aprirs breeze and shower,
Or calmly flows, q rapid stream, and still
II comes with blessedness unto the heart
That welcomes IL Alright, or-Ditter fate
II wrings the bosom with so fierce smart
That love. we CRY, Is crueler than hate.
And then oh mel When love has ceased to
bless.
Our broken hearts cry out for tenderness.
We long for tenderness like that which hung
About US, lying on our mothers brnasti
selfish feeling, that no pen or tongue
Can praise Alright, since silence sings 1t best;
A love as far removed from passions heat
As from the cbilness OF its dying FIRE;
A love to lean on when the failing feet
Begin to totter and the eyes to tire.
In youths brief heyday hottest love we seek
The reddest rose we grasp-but when 1t dies
God grant thas later blossoms, violets meek
May spring for us beneath life's autumn
Skies
God grant some loving one be near to bless
Our weary way with simple tenderness.

cAiCAao's BIG LIME KILN.
1t Is said to Be the Largest in tn


1t Is Said to Be the Largest in tho
World.
On West Eighteenth street, in the
heart of the city, is the largest lime
kiln in the world. People who believe
that Chicago has foundation of sand
may know how far they are mistaken by
taking peep at this awful hole in the
ground. The boom of the blast and the
thud of the heavy hammers have been
rending the air there for thirty years;
and scientific machinery and appliances
are reducing The rock and enlarging the
hole at the rate of 1000 barrels of lime
and 1000 barrels of crushed stone per
day. Such is the immensity of the solid
rock that the work may go on indefin-
itely. The hole is already immense,
The surface of it's mouth must needs be
computed by acres, while the cubic feet
of its displacement runs up into the
millions. Cable cars, with numerous
diverging tracks and turntables, take
their loads of stone over its lower sur
face to cable car track, up which the
loaded cars go over 100 feet, at an angle
of about forty-fve degrees.

ticed the workmen running toward the
eastern wall and seeking a refuge be-
hind large powders, and, following
their example, was only fairly slowed
away beneath the drippings of min
eral spring, when he heard boom, boom,
boom, and, looking out, saw the air full
of flying stone. A succession of blasts
demonstrated the power of explosive
matter over solid walls of limestone.
In minute it was all over and the
workers were busy and the cable-cars
running as though dynamite had not
been at work just moment before.
Many men, if they had such hole in
the ground in the center of city like
Chicago, would put deer park and a
fishing lake in it, plant it in forests,
supply it with beautiful walks, make
flower gardens in the walls and among
the powders, build mountains with
caves in them, have floating gardens
and toboggan slides around its Immense
walls, with stopping stations opposite
tempting caverns filled with delicacies;
have summer hotels and winter retreats;
advertise its mountain scenery, it's min
eral springs, its healthful climate, its
pleasant walk,I and then get rich.

THE WOMEN OF THlBET.
How They Marry and Spend the Most OF
Their Lives.

Their Lives.
Among the Thibetans a man marries
only one wife whom he purchases from
her parents, Il belle often costing as
much as ten ponies and thirty yaks.
The price to be paid for the wife is ar
ranged by relative or friend who
acts as go-bctwccn, and the only mar
riage ceremony is grand spree lasting
as long as the bridegroom can afford to
keep it up.
The life of Thibetan woman in this
part of the country can not be deemed q
hard one. She makes the tea, it is true,
but with that the housekeeping ends;
for no one ever dreams of cleaning the
kettle afterwards, and every Que has to
mix his own tsamba and lick mis- bowl
clean when he has finished. Every fou
or five years she may have to sew a new
sheepskin gown for herself or for soma
one of her family, but certainly not oft
ener. She can not herd tho cattle or
sheep; men must do that, AZ there is
danger from marauders. Sha passes
her time spinning yarn, weaving a
coarse kind of cloth out of which bags
are made, turning prayer wheel, and
destroying too voracious vermin.
Her toilet requires rearranging only
four or five times year-when she Wis.
its Kumbum or some other fair; she
never washes herself or her garments,
and her children can not outgrow their
clothes; they have only to let out lit
tie of the folds of the gown, their unique
garment, tucked up around the waist,
and it will fit them until they are grown
