Through Devious Ways to InstiIl lesson
That win he Remembered.
A German merchant in London has a
servant who at first was very forgetful.
This fault was especially annoying at
meal times, when something essential
was sure to be lacking from the table,
says Lippincott's Magazine. One day
the family was seated at the table, and
the bell was rung as usual. The girl
hurried to the dining-room.
maria, !" said Herr b., lust run and
fetch the big step-ladder down from the
attic and bring it here"
Maria, who had been disturbed at her
dinner, gave a grunt of dissatisfaction,
but ran up three flights OF stairs TO fetch
down the ladder. In about five minutes
she returned to the room, painting with
her exertion.
''Now," said Herr B., s'put It up at
that end of the room and climb to the
top"
Maria did as she was told, and when
she was at the top'Herr b. quietly OBJ
served: .Maria, you &have now got a
better view than we have; just look
round and tell us if you can see any salt
on the table. My wife and could not
find it."
This settled the business. Maria has
never forgotten the lesson.

TIME AND ENERGY.
A Man May BE Old In Hours, Though
Young In Years.

A Man May BE Old In Hours, Though
Young In Years.
Bearing in mind the Importance OF
the few years in which so much has to
be acquired, SO much accomplished by
the student, too great stress cannot be
laid on the value OF proper method in
disposing both of time and energy
"A man may be old in hours, though
young in years, il he have lost no
time" writes Lord Bacon, and it IS in
the adjustment of suitable periods to
particular tasks and the utilization OF
the brief and irregular intervals be-
tween that the saving OF the time prac-
tically consists 1t has been estimated
that the mere difference between rising
at six and nine o'clock in the morning
for the space of forty years is nearly
equivalent to the addition of fifteen
years to mans lifetime. There may
be some idiosyncracy in the matter OF
getting up early, but in very many
cases both rising late and sitting up
late are largely the result Of Incidence.
And for many who have sufficient occu-
patton in the daytime there is a great
contrast between the intellectual value
of the morning, when the brain is
fresh, and of the evening, when it is
fatigued and rather inclined for recrea-
ton than fresh effort.
But, if POSSIBLE, of even more impor.
tance than the value of time is the
value of thought, and 1t Is only the
power Of commanding and controlling
the activity of the brain that can en-
able us to employ the brief time at on!
disposal in furthering the objects
which we have in view. Barrow, The
early adviser of Isaac Newton, poetic.
ally observed: "The spirits employed
in thought are apt to futter and fly
away, so that it is hard to fix them; our
mind being restless thing. never abid-
ing in total cessation from thought
or from design and, like ship at sea-
If not steered to some good purpose by
reason, making no useful way, but yet
tossed by the waves Of fancy or driven
by the winds of temptations some'
WHITTIER" Curiosity is the intellectual
appetite, but it requires both direction
and control for the assimilation OF
sound and useful knowledge. The eff
feet Of novelty in producing an impress
sion on the mind is most valuable,
but when not followed up by thorough
investigation it is useless, md too much
novelty Is of all things the most weary
ing.
But in the midst Of his work the stu
dent should be caref''l of health. The
best work is done when in the best
health, and this depends on a suitable
balance between mental and physica
exertion, with plenty of fresh air ant
regularity with regard to food and rest
1t is far better, when necessary, to tals'
brief holiday to AVOID being ill than t
endure q longer all .ence from work en-
forced by illness.

WASN'T AFRAID OF FEvERs.

A Famous Rider who Was willing to Go
xs.is. Anywhere for . Salary.
Ss)aowman u ames A. Bailey once en-
gagged John Robinson, the great bare
back rider, to 60 with him to Australia,
says the New York Herald. He paid
him five hundreds dollars every week,
even when they were on board ship.
Robinson needed .it then as badly as he
did when on LAM, because he played
poker perpetually.
At the end of the Australian engage
ment Mr. Isailey decided to go to India.
Robinson's name was not known there
and the Snowman concluded that less
expensive man would do as well. But
the rilGt's contract had some time to
run, and in the hope of inducing Robin
son to ask to be released, Mr.. Bailey
one day began to descant on the hor-
rors of the Indian climate.
''ItS a'tetttBfe place, john" he said.
It's full of fever I'm afraid you'll
get sick If you go out there"
Mr.. Bailey" said Robinson, i'm
pressively, you can pitch your tents in
hades and I'll ride under 'em for five
hundrea bars a week."
He went to india.

ATFiNE BATTLE PICTURE.

Description Of French Cavalry Hegi-
i.'ment About to Charge.
Suddenly, shrill and clear, the bugle
sounded the garde vous. and tremor
shook the two regiments. The swear
ing AID grumbling ceased, and dead
silence seemed to fall on the ranks.
The men swung themselves into the
saddle, refined their horses into lire and
waited. A few officers galloped along
the front, an order passed down the
line, and the mounted, iron-breasted
mass moved forward out of the shadow
into the sun. AS of their own accord,
the squadrons deployed and again
waited. A staff officer rode down the
front and waved his KEPT.
.Boys!" he cried, "the country needs
you. You are going to charge. Ahead
of you, are ten thousand bayonets,
glory. and death. Behind you, our
shattered right wing. You must save
them, cost what it may. Good-by,
boysl sGo it as your fathers did at
Waterloo!' +
A voices answered from the ranks:
"All right, general! We haven't for-
gotten how. the old fellows charged"
The next moment the hoarse cry Of yive
la France! rang from one thousand two
hundred Threats.
And then again there was a pause
Several horsemen wheeled into place in
their respective positions. A = half
ineligible order rippled through the
ranks. The bpgle sounded. The lines
oscillated, and instinctively the squad
rons chose their ground. The front
moved; ahead, and the long diagonal
shrank into column. Then again they
halted for q moment, and the first
bullets, fred from too great distance
to do any harm, rang against the steel
cuirasses with dull, swinging, melan
choly sound.
Saint Brissac reached over and SHOOK
Sargent's' hand-and they were off
Twelve hundred swords flashed from

zuLus IN SHAM BATTLE.


a Realistic spectac - Evei to the Killing
of the "uiled
A sham fight among the Zulns is an
impressive spectacle, says the Detroit
Free Press. The dusky warriors are
fine, M ocular fellows, athletic and
hirily trained The rank and file, I'M
tratnmclcd by ornaments and dress,
move about WITH grace and freedom.
TIC Ulcers, el.i>li and head men wear
core;icts of ostrich feathers, which
rust {, freely with every movement of
the body; circling their brows are rolls
OF t.,,cr skin from which descend
frin res of course hair; from the neck
and snoulfe rs to the knees their bodies
are covered with the tails of monkeys
cad tigers and stripes of various hides
strung together in girdles; their waists
arc tsirt about with TUFTS of lions name
and cow hair. Forming into line, their
var. eyated shields are SO close and reg.
nlar that they appear interlocked.
Willie above them bristle rows of gleam-
esse raj heads. The foe is imaginary.
rs even among their own tribes they
are reused to such pitch of excite
mcnt that, had they any opponents.
though only in mimic warfare, they
would be SO far carried away by their
feelings that at close quarters blood.
shed would inevitably result. At the
word of command they advance In pre-
else order, first slowly, then at quick
march, then double, and with a shout
of ''Chiela!" Imaginary enemies) the
battle becomes fast and furious. Bran
dishing their assegais, stabbing anc
lunging with strength and dexterity
each stroke accompanied by q fercs
grunt of satisfaction, stamping, gesticu
lating and gnashing their teeth, they
work themselves into n mad frenzy, II
which their features are distorted anG
their eyes glare with fierce lust o
blood.
Suddenly the command Is given to re
ire, and, as victors shouting triu mph
they march from the field. Then ar
pears upon the scene horde Of wild
looking creatures, running and leapin
from place to place, screaming demon
acally, and frantically beating tn
earth with thick heavy clubs. Thes
are the women and they are engaged l
the horrible atrocity Of killing th
wounded. After sham fight the nigh
is spent in feasting and revelry.

Farm Hand. in England.

The scarcity Of farm laborers In some
of the agricultural districts Of England
has given great annoyance to the land.
ed proprietors and farmers. The dull
"Chawbacon" or Hodge" Of old Eng.
land has become enterprising in these
times, and is DESTROYS Of trying life In
the cities, where hordes Of miserables
have their abode, or getting away to
some other country. The employers
are apprehensive that, within few
years, only the laggards Of the rural
regions will DO left to do the hard work
Of the fields for the paltry wages that
are paid to them.

The Weight Of . Grain. {"

The smallest measure Of weight in
use, the grain, has its name from being
originally the weight Of grain OF
wheat. A statute passed In England In
1885 ordained that thirty-two grains of
wheat, taken from the middle Of the
ear, or head, and we'll dried, should
make pennyweight. twenty Of which
should make IN ounce, while twelve
ounces were to make pound. The
pound, therefore consisted Of 1850
grains. Some centuries later the penny
weight was divided into twenty-four
grains, which make the troy pound. as
now used, 5,76o grains. The penny
weight was the exact weight Of the old
silver penny.

Dog Finds Ills WAY to Ilis Master, Over
Hundred Miles Distant.
One of Cobb county's farmers con-
cluded that he could do better in Ala
bama, and he shipped his goods by rail
road, bowed his dog and sent him, too,
to the new home beyond Sand noun
tain, over one hundred miles from here,
says the Atlantic Constitution. The
Cobb county farmer had not been dom.
iciled in his new home long before sick
ness came into his family and every
thing looked gloomy.
When his family got well he con-
cluded old Georgia was good enough for
him, and he put his family on the train
and moved back to Cobb. He left his
dog, however,, The dog missed his
master, whined and ran around the
mouse for several days and then disap-
peared.
What was the Cobb county gentle
mans surprise one day to see his dog
come running up to him at his home, a
little worse for hunger but in pretty
good bodily trim. HE had made the
trip from Alabama back to Georgia
guided BY instinct alone.
