speaks German or French, or any other
foreign language; if he is in good health,
if he drinks; he doesn't want TO be fresh,
nor does he want 10 be a chump. He
wants 10 get rid Of the idea that the
paper needs him, but wants to impress

If we will only rightly use little things
it is surprising how much may some

When she came provided with every

ter on the beetles head, tie the silk
thread around him and place him on the
wall of the tower. Deceived by the
smell Of butter, which he supposed was
above him, the insect continued to as

The Floating Weeds in the Atlantic

The gulf weed (Fucus natans) which,
with its little round "berries," is not I'M
like the mistletoe in form, but of a
brownish yellow color, has been thought
to have lost its property of roofing on
rocks and to have acquired the power Of
living afoat. 1t has even been sug-
gested that the sea marks the site of a
submerged continent, apparently the
lost Atlantis. DR.. Krummel holds that
the weed has simply been drifted TO its
present position by the Gulf stream and
its ailments from the West Indian is
lands and the Gulf Of Mexico.
II is now proved that the Gulf stream
is not single narrow river Of the
ocean," as Maury POLITICALLY described
it, but consists of a number of currents,
not only from the Mexican gulf, but the
Antilles. The weed, according to DIR.
Krummel, would take fifteen days TO
float as far north as the latitude Of Cape
Hatteras and five and half months To
reach the Azores. In the Sargasso sea
1t becomes heavy and sinks; but the sup
ply is kept mp by the Gulf stream.-Lon-

Long Services In Wales.

In Wales the Sunday evening services
generally last two hours. Now there
can be little doubt that service lasting
two hours ON summer evening is con
sidered too long by working men and
women who have been hard at work six
days running. If our chapels are to re-
tain their hold especially in English
towns, the services must be made
shorter. l have seen an advertisement
from which 1t appeared that in one Non
conformist chapel the services are ''brief,
bright, brotherly." But that was not in
Wales.-Liverpool Mercury.

The knack which French photogra-
piers, and especially those of Paris,
possess in relieving their sitters of a
constrained and distressed look while
sitting for their portraits has long been
the envy and perplexity of photogra-
piers of other nations. An American
photographer, on a recent visit to Paris,
took pains to study the means by which
this very desirable result was reached.
He reports that it all lies in a very
simple device, which well illustrates
the nature of the Frenchman.
When lady, for instance, is sitting
to a photographer for a portrait, the
operator does not, in a perfunctory
manner, coldly request her to Look
pleasant now, ma'am" He says to her,
In the most natural and graceful man
ner in the world:
cts quite unnecessary to ask madam
to look pleasant; she could not look
otherwisep'
The lady Of course acknowledges the
compliment with her most gracious
and highbred smile. "Clickp goes the
camera and the picture is obtained, re-
vealing the sitter at her highwater
mark, as it were.-Youth's Companion.

An important bit of local history has
been discovered at Salem in connection
with a tombstone in the old Charter
street burying ground. In the utter
most corner of this ground is stone
bearing this inscriptions
"Mr. Nathan Mather died October ye
18th, 1888. An aged person that had
seen but nineteen winters in this world"
The meaning Of this peculiar inscrip-
ton has long been matter for conjec-
ture among local historians. In his
american Notebooks, Nathaniel Haw-
thorne refers to it and says: "'An aged
man at nineteen years, saith the grave
stone. 1t affected me deeply when l
cleared away the grass from the half
buried stone and read the name"
The mystery has been solved by the
discovery in the Essex institute of a
book entitled, "The Genealogy of the
Mather Family" By this book it ap-
pears that Nathaniel Mather was born
July 0, 1859, and was brother Of Cotton
Mather and a son of Increase Mather.
AT the age of twelve years he had
thoroughly fitted for college, and he was
graduated from Harvard at the age Of
sixteen. At twelve he had read the Old
Testament in Hebrew and the new Tes-
lament in Greek, and was able to con-
verse Familiarity in Latin. He was dis
tinguished not only for his complete
mastery of languages, but for his attain
ments in mathematics, philosophy, his
tory, theology and rabbinical learning
as well. At the time Of his graduation
he delivered an Grafton in Hebrew upon
the state of learning among the Jews

The Earth to BE Like the Moon.

The water of the earth is all destined
to disappear from the surface of the
globe by being absorbed by subterranean
rocks, with which it will form chemical
combinations. The heavenly spheres
exhibit sufficiently striking examples Of
such an evolution. The planet Mars
shows what will become Of the earth
in some thousands of centuries. Its seas
are only shallow Mediterraneans of less
surface than the continents, and these
do not appear to be very high; and in
the appearance of the moon, all cracked
and dried up, we have view of the
final state of the earth-for the absorp-
ton of the water by the solid nucleus
will be followed by that Of the atmos-
phere.-Popular Science Monthly.
