Lake Currents.

During the next few months a great
many bottles will be cast upon the
shores of Lake Michigan. They are to
be thrown into the water for expert
mental purposes by lake captains, who
will undertake the service at the re-
quest of the United States government.
The experiments are to be conducted for
the purpose of determining the set and
drift of lake currents, and will be under
the direction of the weather bureau.
The bottles are to be given out to vessel
captains, who will agree to throw them
overheard and enter certain data on
blanks furnished for that purpose. In
order to do the work Systematically the
great lakes have been mapped out in
numbered sections, commencing at Du-
luth and numbering eastward.
There are 410 sections in all, each one
containing about 1870 square miles.
When the captain throws one of the bot
ties in the water he will place in it be-
fore so doing slip of paper, upon which
the data and Imposition of the vessel is
entered. On each slip is the request
that the finder send it to the chief of the
weather bureau at Washington or hand
it to the nearest government observer
lighthouse keeper or postmaster to be
forwarded. By noting where the bot
ties go ashore, data will be obtained from
which the movement of the lake cur
rents can be calculated. -Philadelp

Baseball a Cure for Lunacy.

The superintendent of the New York
State Lunatic asylum has discovered a
novel cure for lunacy. 1t is nothing
more nor less than frequent doses of the
national game. Says he; Il believe that
baseball is a homeopathic cure for luna
cy. 1t is kind of craze in itself, and it
gives the lunatics a new kind of crazi-
ness to relieve them of the malady which
affiicts their minds. | have noted our
most melancholy patients watching base
ball play, laughing heartily and even
immoderately at the mistakes of the
playing and the funny incidents of the
game. The free air which they breathe
while sitting around the baseball field
Is beneficial to most of them, and cul-
tivate baseball both because | like it
myself and because | believe it is bene-
fetal to the asylum patients Chicago

THE TWO AGES.
Folks were happy as days were long

Folks were happy as days were long
In the old Arcadian times:
When life seemed only dance and a song
In the sweetest of all sweet chimes.
Our world grows bigger, and, stage by stage,
As the pitiess years have rolled,
We've quite forgotten the Golden Age
And come to the Age of Gold.
Time went by in a sheepish way
Upon Thessaly's plains of yore.
In the Nineteenth century, lambs at play
Mean mutton, and nothing more.
Our SWANS at present are far too sage
To live as one lived of old;
So they coupled the crook of the Golden Age
With hook in the Age of Gold.
From Corydons reed the mountains round
Heard news of his latest flame,
And Tityrus made the woods resound
With echoes of Daphne's name.
They kindly left US a lasting gauge
OF their musical art, we're told,
And the Pandean pipe of the Golden Age
Brings mirth to the Age of Gold.
Dwellers in huts and in marble halls,
From shepherdess up to queen,
Cared little for bonnets and less for shawls,
And nothing for crinoline.
But now simplicity's not the rage;
And it's funny to think how cold
The dress they wore in the Golden Age
Would seem in the Age of Gold.
Electric telegraphs, printing, gas,
Tobacco, balloons and steam
Are little events that have come to pass
Since the days of the old regime;
And, spite of Lempriere's dazzling page,
I'd give, though it might seem bold,
A hundred years of the Golden Age
For year of the Age of Gold.

Snakes and Rabbits in Australia.

A good deal of attention has been be-
slowed upon the subject Of rabbit de-
struction, and some astounding pro-
posals and suggestions have been re-
ceived from various parts of the world.
The last suggestion, which is from south
Australia, is that number of carpet
snakes should be let loose among the
rabbits, which would, it is asserted, be
speedily eaten up by the reptiles. The
correspondent also furnishes some re-
markable data regarding the feeding
capacity of carpet snakes. When from
FIVE to six feet long they are, he says,
able to eat two or three rabbits at a
meal; but when they are fifteen or six
teen feet long they are able to eat six
rabbits.
Anticipating inquiry as to what would
happen if the snakes became more
numerous than rabbits, he proposes that
carpet snakes of one kind only should
be used. and after eating all the rabbits
the snakes would then proceed to eat
each other.-London Public Opinion.

"Hs CALLED HER IN"

He called her in from me and shut the doorl
After a long struggling with my pride and
pain
A weary while it seemed in which the more
! held myself from her, the greater fain
Was to look upon her face again;
AT last-at last-half conscious where my feet
Were faring, stood waist deep in the sweet
! Green grasses there, where she
First came TO me.
The very blossoms she had pucked that day,
And at her fathers voice had cast away,
Around me lay
Still bright and blooming in these eyes Of
mine;
And as gathered each one eagerly
/ pressed 1t to my lips and drank the wine
Her kisses left there for the honey bee.
! Then. after had laid them with the tress
| OF her bright hair, with lingering tender
ness,
II, turning, crept on to the edge that bound
Her pleasant seeming home-but all around
| Was never sign of herl The windows all
| Were blinded; and heard no ripping fax
| OF her glad laugh, nor any harsh voice call;
But, clutching to the tangled grasses, caught
"A sound though strong man bowed bis
head
And sobbed -unloved-uncomforted!
And then straightway before
My fearless eyes, all wildly was wrought
A vision that is with me evermore;
"A little girl that lies asleep, nor hears
Nor heeds not any voice, nor fall of tears.
And | sit singing DER and DER and DER,
"God called her in from him and shut the
doorl''

reminded Of a hanging scene in a new

and he had every appearance of bearing
an important message Springing up
the steps of the platform, he announced
that if the person who occupied it would
resign his place for moment in favor
of himself he would like to say a few
