ALL Paris is laughing over the joke
about an American inventor who is
said to have patented a corset that is
to bring about the reign of morality at
once. Ifone OF these articles is pressed
by lovers srm it at once emits a
shrek like the whistle of railroad
engine; and the inventor claims that
he has already married three of his
daughters, owing to the publicity thus
thrust upon a backward lover. But
the wits of Paris, carrying out the joke
to its utmost, profess to fear that soon
the parlors will become unbearable,
owing TO the simultaneous and contin.
ued whistling of the corsets.

BEER IN A BIG FACTORY.

At the great factory Of the Singer Manu-
featuring Company, at Elizabethport, N. j..
a half hour is allowed for the noon-day meal
and it is invariably taken in the.shops, or in
the immediate vicinity. The whistle sounds,
and instantly 500 or more boys or young
men appear on run armed with tin pals,
some carrying dozen. They Immediately
repair to some adjoining saloons where the
pals are filed with beer, which shortly be-
fore has been drawn into tubs so as to allow
Of expeditions dipping. The beer is then
carried to waiting comradss in the factories.

TIE truth of the germ theory of dis.
ease would seem to be demonstrated,
at least with regard to some diseases,
by the researches OF DR.. Koch. In
cases of few diseases, notably spleuio
fever, there accumulates in the blood
and tissues, but more especially in the
spleen, peculiar kind of bacteria.
Where animals are inoculated with
fluid containing either the bacilla
themselves or their spores, he has pro-
duced all the phenomena of spleuic
fever. From this hypothesis the now
celebrated micrologist has deduced
the fact that by inoculating people
suffering with tuberoular diseases with
q lymph the bacteria of this particular
disease admitting such to be of bac.
terian origin-are destroyed effect
ually.

Color of Eyes In Men and Women.

M. de Candolie, French investigator,
has come to the conclusion from his re-
searches that women have larger proper
tion of brown eyes than men. He also finds
that where both parents have eyes of like
color the chances are eighty-eight to
twelve that their children, when they ar
rive at the age of ten (when the color of
the eyes is fxed), will have eyes of the
same color. When the parents have eyes
of different colors the chances are fifty
fve to forty-fve in favor of brown as
against blue or gray eyes in the children.
He is also of the opinion that the health
of the brunette type is, as rule, su-
perior to that of the blonde.-St. Louis

the moan: "Oh, my child my childp' Then
there are the filial tears Little children soon
get over the loss of parents. They are easily
diverted with new toy. But where is the
man that has come to thirty or forty or fifty
yearssof age, who can think Of tbs old peo-
pie without having all the fountains OF bis
soul stirred up? You may have had to take
care OF her good many years, but you
never can forget how she used to take care
Of you.
There have been many sea captains con-
verted in our church, and the popularity Of
them was that they were nearly all prayed
ashore by their mothers, though the mothers
went into the dust soon after they went to
sea. Have you never heard an old man in
deliriun OF some sickness call for his mother?
The fact is we get so used to calling for her
the first ten years Of our life we never get
over it, and when she goes away from US it
makes deep sorrow. You sometimes, per-
the world would say, You ought to be able
to take care Of yoursel;'-you wake up from
your dreams finding yourself saying, "Oh,
mother! mothe-m Have these tears no di-
vine origin? Why, take all the warm hearts
that ever beat in all lands, and in all ages,
and put them together and their united throb
would bs weak compared with the throb of
Gods eternal sympathy. Yes God also is
father of all that rain of repentance.
Did you ever see rain Of repentance? Do
you know what it is that makes man re-
pent? see people going around trying to
repent. They caunot repent. Do you know
no man can repent until God helps him to
repent? How do know? By this passage,
"ain hath God exalted to be prince and a
Saviour to give repentance" Oh. it is tire.
mt ndous hour when one wakes up and says:
II am bad man. 1 have not sinned against
life; God asked me for my services and
haven't given those services. Oh, my sins;
God forgive me-" When that tear starts it
thrills al heaven. An angel cannot keep his
eyes of it and the church Of God assemblies
