MAGIC AT HOME.

An Amusing Illustration of . Familiar
Law OF Mechanics.
Our illustration supplies without the
need of explanation the solution OF the
problem, how to balance pencil on its
point.
You have merely to dig the blade OF
half open penknife into the pencil lit
tie above the point, and to open or close
the blade, little by little, till you find
that the balance is obtained. The COM
bination of pencil and penknife thus
placing itself in equilibrium is an Illus
tration OF familiar law Of mechanics;
the center Of gravity of the combina-
ton falls below the point Of support

results. The fruit ripened ten days
earlier than that which was not bsgged.
A curious result was that while bag
ging grapes retarded the period Of
ripening, the bagging OF tomatoes had
the opposite effect. Tomatoes that
were bagged also ripened more COM
pletely around the stems. Bagging is
done by simply pinning paper bags

names were signed in good faith by
President Cannon, according to old prec-
edents. They regret to be obliged to
publicly dissent from the presidents views,
as they do not believe in raising funds for
distinct factions of what ought TO be a
united body. They think that the APP
proach of the general election will force
union, and that the organization ought to
raise funds to meet the emergency OF the
general election, the money TO be used for
the support OF a thoroughly united party.

PUBLIC BUILDING BILLS.
Rigid Economy to Pc the Rule in the
House.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2A-Retrenchment
and rigid economy in expenditures for pub
lie buildings is to be the motto OF the House
Of Representatives at this session OF con-
gress. While the policy has not been abso-
lutely outlined by a definite vote, it can be
stated that few and perhaps no
bills for the erection of new pub
lic buildings viii be reported
by the House committee on public build
ings and grounds, which has charge Of the
public building measures. II the construc.
tion Of any new public buildings is recom-
mended an extreme and urgent necessity
therefor must be shown.
THE NECESSITY FOR RETRENCHMENT.
The members of the public buildings comp
mittee of the House say that the adoption
OF this policy is imperatively demanded by
the condition of the treasury and in view OF
the necessity for appropriations to continue
the work on the large number OF public
buildings provided for by the last congress.
The committee has had several meets
ings and has discussed the question as to
whether OF not any bill whatever should be
reported providing for the erection Of new
public buildings, but has not formally
adopted line Of policy. although several
members of the committee have favored an
agreement to refrain from reporting bills
for new construction, and 1t may be that a
majority Of them will be found 10 take this
view.
SURE TO BE VERY FEW REPORTED,
AT all events discussion has shown clearly
that new public buildings will certainly be
kept down to an exceedingly limited num-
Der, even If the policy of recommending no
new ones should de deviated from Not a
single public building bill has beeu reported
to the House from the committee this ses-
sion. A considerable numbe: have passed
