NOT ALL m GIVING.


4 Few Timely Suggestions for the Re-
eclvers of Glfts.
From the receivers standpoint al
gifts may be divided into things that
we want and things that we don't want
II takes no particular skill or grace to
receive things that we want. but "a. in
times Of general giving like Christmas.
the larger part Of the eifta we get are
things that we don't want that branch
of receivership is worth attention. The
two ordinary reasons for not wanting
things are the vulgar one that they do
not strike Us - intrinsicAlly desirable,
and the more complex reason that wo
don't want to receive them from the
particular giver. A general remedy up.
plicable to reluctanoes due to either Of
those causes is to keep strenuously
in the mind the happiness OF
the giver in giving. Remembering
that you are delighted with .
tribe from some one you love, because II
makes you happy to have been even
passively instrumental in procuring
him the happiness Of giving; Supplying
the same principle. you can accept ever

You care little without any irlsome
sense of obligation. since. of course, the
giver had the best of il, any way, and
it is great deal kinder and more gem
erous to sacrifice ones personal inclina-
tions and accept than to refuse. Re.
member persistently that BY receiving
with due grace you secure to another
person . desirable form of happiness.
After all, little children do it best
They are the superlative receivers. and
it Is because they are that we delight
to give them thingA They are frankly
and delightfully."- appreciative. Obligar
tions set as lightly on them Is the air.

A Giant Microscope.

The Poeller Physical Optical institute,
Of Munich, has under construction an
enormous microscope for exhibition at
Chicago in 1893. 1t will magnify to-
$1,000 diameters, or, as ordinarily fitted,
to II, 900 diameters. An electric light
of II, 900 candle power is to be used for
Illuminating the image, which is to be
projected as a screen. AS the heat from
this powerful light would derange the
focus by expansion of the metal, an in
genious device is used to cool the metal.
This is a small copper cylinder filled
with liquid carbonic acid, connected
with the microscope i'll such a manner
that an electric regulator automatically
opens a valve and allows a drop of acid
to escape in a spray on the metal to be
cooled; the liquid Immediately evapo-
rates and produces intense cold. The
whole cost of the instrument is said to
be nearly so, 0O0.-Boston Budget.

Boxing with the Gar.

1t is said that while at Copenhagen
the cza distinguished himself as a boxer,
boxing having become the favorite form
of exercise of this imperial hercules.
His great difficulty is and always has
been to find any one ready or willing to
stand up against him and to respond to
each blow by a counter one Neither
his Russian brothers nor any dignitaries
of his court are particularly willing to
oblige him in this matter, as they dread
not only the force of his powerful fist,
but also fear of mourning his resentment
in the event of their responding to his
blows.
Indeed, the only man who ventures to
put on the gloves with him and to meet
him fairly and squarely is his brother-in-
law, young Waldemar, the sailor prince
of Denmark.
The other day, during the performance
of one of Wagner's most wearisome
operas, the car and the prince withdrew
to a vacant room and had a good set-to,
which was on the point Of ending fatal
ly, for the cars huge fist struck Prince
Waldemar's chin with such force as to
dash him to the ground, where he lay
for a quarter of all hour before the czar
and his attendants could restore him to
consciousness.
The car would do we'll to abandon
the gloves, for he is apparently unable
to realize the extent of his strength and
does much damage with his sledge ham
mer blows. Indeed it Tasa blow such
as this which struck his elder brother,
the late Czarowitz Nicholas, on the
chest, and which enabled Alexander not
only to marry one of the most attractive
princesses in Europe, but also to become
the heir to, and eventually the occupant
Of, the Russian throne.-Marquise de

The Earth on Fire.

One-third Of the total area of this
state is underlaid with coal. In several
districts heavy deposits have been on
fire for years. There are cases where
the conditions have been volcanic on &C
count of the generation of gases. One
of these disturbances occurred on the
Sweet Water cattle range, 25e miles
west of Cheyenne, last week. More than
a hundred acres of surface was displaced
and the report was heard for thirty
miles. Cattle growers reporting the oc-
currence at Rock Springs say that coal
and dirt were thrown into the air a
great distance. The existence of this
fire has been known for twelve years.

An Extraordinary Shower.

All extraordinary meteorological phe-
nomenon occurred in the eastern part Of
this country by the recent fall Of about
n inch of strange looking snow. 1t
was of darker color than ashes and
looked like mill middlings or shorts.
This snow when melted makes a muddy
water, and when allowed to settle de-
posts a fine sediment, which to the
naked eye presents four different ap-
p~earances, viz, two powders Zone Of a
gray and the other Of a black color,
among which are mixed ragged fakes
that look like sawdust and others that
resemble scales of mica or copper filings.
When seen through a microscope the
gray powder appears to be the debris OF
myriads of broken down, s~emitranspar-
ent cells and fbers. The black powder,
which is about five times as coarse as
the former and about one-tenth in guam
tity, appears to be made up of little
pear shaped, buglike animalcula.
The copper colored scales are Of hard
substance. and when magnifed become
translucent and appear to be of a fbrous,
cellular structure, of a purple or blood
like color, in which are set the little
black, buglike creatures before de-
scribed. This is considered the original
life substance from which all the other
is derived. The little ragged, sawdust-
like fakes are but the former in course
Of disintegratiOn and look like white,
tieshy cellular tissue in which the black
objects are set like seeds in a fig. The
substance can easily be found, as it
forms a uniform dark crust, like stratum,
with a considerable depth of ordinary
snow both below and above it. The fall
extended over quite an area of country
and has attracted a good deal of atten-
ton. The matter is no doubt worthy of
a'thorough scientific investigation.-La-
porte Qnd.) Cor. Pittsburg Dispatch.

A HORRIBLE SUSPENSE.

Next | knew it was climbing up
Owe my throat, then to my chin and
about my nose An irresistible impulse
caused ME to open my right eye. and

big tarantula looking into mine, with
its hairy body on ny face, not two inches
away!

full injury might result if | moved my
body, Immediately dropped the eyelid
and had the satisfaction of feeling the
sprawling spider crawl over that eye to
my forehead and into my hair, where it
prepared a nest and finally settled down,
no doubt as snugly as a bug in Il rug.
You may think you can imagine my
feelings, but you cannot. For a full
half hour, | should judge. | endured all
the suspense and torment that comes to
most mortals in a lifetime, and allowed
another spider to slowly crawl up my
leg, not knowing at what time | would
feel those black fanGs sink into my flesh.

one of the tarantulaS, an immense fell

turning back the blankets and examin-
ing me, he found twelve others that had

dispatched in a manner not to alarm the
others. When the strain was over |
