WORK OF The SNOW.
Its Extraordinary Effects Upon the Earth's
Surface.

U >
Surface.
Snow has several curious methods of
extending the sphere of its hostile in
fiuence. The comparatively light
SHOWS which fall in our latitude are of
minor Importance, since they readily
yield to the early spring sunbeams.
They are in some degree beneficial to
the fertile surface and protective to its
more tender annual plants, while their
only important adverse effect is the
dangerous flooding of the rivers, due to
their rapid melting. But the deep and
persistent SHOWS of northern regions
are far more exhaustive of solar heat
and reduce the agricultural season of
those regions to a dangerously short
period. In their melting, also, the sur
face air is chilled, and winds from the
north convey this chilled air far to
the south, thus spreading widely over
the warmer zones the frost-inducing in
fiuence of the melting SHOWS.
We have seen how the tropic heats
are carried toward the poles by winds
and waters. The frigid cold is car
ried toward the tropics by the same
agencies-chilled winds and cold ocean
currents. 1t is carried by another
agent of great Importance, the direct
creep of the snow itself toward the
lower latitudes. This agency has once
perhaps many times-produced an
extraordinary effect upon the surface
of the earth, one far surprising that of
volcanic explosions AID lava outflows
in its adverse influence. At present this
glacial action is greatly reduced, but is
still of much importance.-Charles
Morris. in Popular Science Monthly.

The Average Man.

One of the most CALLING tyrannies of
modern life is that of the average man.
Did you ever see the average man? No.
Are you acquainted with any one who
ever did? No. Have you any reason to
believe that the average man ever ex-
listed? No, again. The fact is he is a
myth. He never did and never will ex-
ist He is a philosophical abstraction,
a stage property of the metaphysician,
straw man, set up to be worshiped
or reviled, as the case may be. And
vet we all bow down to him and talk in
hushed whispers about his thoughts,
deeds and desires. We are rejoiced
when he is supposed to smile, and
tremble when he frowns. Statisticians
burn the midnight oil in order to do
sums about him. Statesmen give up
their lives in his service. Political econ
omists look solemn as they take his
measure. Physicians tell us how he
may keep well, and preachers adjust
the messages of the Gospel to his COM
preheDsion. And yet, of all the myriads
of men who have ever lived, every one
differs more or less from the supposed
average man. Who will deliver the
world from the tyrannisal rule of the
average MANN. Y. Tribune.

one approaches it, like an ordinary
farmstead, with dairy, etc. The in
terror is plainly but neatly and taste
fully arranged. There are six pupils
who are divided into two sections, and
every one of them is occupied in accord
ance with a fixed plan.
In the forenoon one section has the
worlz,of the house, and must do the work
both of the mistress and the servants
They each have a numoer. Number
One. for instance, is busy in the kitchen,
Number Two is making the rooms tidy,
and Number Three attends TO the dairy
The other section is at the same time
engaged in weaving, sewing, cutting
out. etc. As sections and numbers
change every week, all the girls get the
different work in turn.
At twelve o'clock dinner is served,
and then follows some hours instruc-
tion in Norwegian, photography, botany,
natural science. etc. The garden, which
is always in beautiful order, is also en-
tirely kept up by the pupils.
The school is more particularly in
tended for peasant girls, and each
course lasts a year; the pupils must
have completed their eighteenth year
before entering the school. The pay,
including every thing, is only Is lxr.

as the eighteenth century, gentlemen
in travelling carried their knives and

SCHOOLS IN THE SHAN STATES.
Where Burmese Gods Are Sold to Curios-
ity Seekers.

Where Burmese Gods Are Sold to Curios-
ity Seekers.
The Shan States. as the country lying
between Burmah and China is called,
have been explored by Europeans late
" for the first time. In "A Thousand
Miles on an Elephant in the Shan
States" an English traveller, Mr.. ii.
Hallett. gives an account of the places
where the Shan boys, or such of them
as are fortunate enough to receive any
instruction at all, go to school.
They are taught by the monks and
abbots of the Buddhist monasteries,
and sleep. with the acolytes and some
of the priests, in the rooms where they
are taught. The monasteries consist of
hall divided into two portions; one
part level with the veranda, where the
scholars are taught, and the other part,
where the monks receive their visitors,
two feet above the rest of the building.
In the larger buildings the monks
sleep in the cloisters; in the smaller
ones. their beds may be seen rolled up,
with those of the acolytes and school
boys. round their pillows against the
walls.
4 conspicuous object in these halls is
the row of images of Buddha on raised
stand against the wall in the back
ground Before them are offerings of
/ taper candles, flowers and prayer-fiags.
/ Perhaps the largest image is made of
alabaster, in which case il has been
carried a great distance, from the quar-
ries in Burmah.
1 aI thfc ON n
\ lower shelf, will be other images, some
/ of wood or clay covered with gold leaf,
some of silver having a core of hard
resin, others of soapstone, and some of
terra Gotta, the last greatly resembling
| the images of saints in their inches sold
/ in Italy.
One who has an eve for curiosities is
naturally attracted by these images,
and seeks an interview with the abbot,
! who is teaching a class of boys. After
I he is asked many questions, he will
very likely say that his eyesight is much
4 impaired, and viii more than hint that
a pair of spectacles would be accepta-
| BILE
When the visitor hints that he would
/ like one or more of the images of
/ Buddha, the abbot is very greatly
/ shocked, and declares that he can not
think of parting with one, because they
have been offered by the people.
But if the bargainer pulls out a hand
| full of silver, the abbot will probably
! give the boys recess, and with much
haggling about the price and show of
reluctance, viii sell some of the gods.
He is sure, however. in order to salve
his conscience, to exact promise to
treat the image with respect, declaring
that if he did not, evil things will hap
pen to you as well as to himself
