The s.aa1i rs W. Sec It.

Did you ever stop to consider the fact
that tho Inhabitants of this earth have
never seen but oac side of tho moon. and
to inquire tho reasons why sach is t,l.
case? The explanation is this: The moon
makes one revolution Oh her axis in the
same period of time that she takes up in
revolving once around the earth, thus
the same geographical region of the lunar
surface is always toward us. As one ex-
PLANTATION usually calls for another, it
may not be out of place to mention the
fact that the reasons tho two motions of
the moon above referred to so nearly
coincide are these:
The moon is not q true globe, but is
very elliptical in form. It did not in all
probabilities originally start OH its axial
rotation with precisely the same velocity
with which it moved around the earth
but the very best astronomers say that
the two motions We're not far apart in
the start. Assuming that the moon was
semi-liquid or at least soft in those re-
mote days. the carth's attraction caused
the lunar surface to elongate. and IN the
untold ages which followed it's axIal ro-
tation. owing to the attractive influence
of both the earth and the sun. was made
to correspond with its orbital movement
around tho earth.-St. Louis Republic.

A Powerful Antiseptic.

Extensive researches made upon COR
rosivo sublimate by DR.. McClintock of
London show though the substance is not
valuable germicide-germs withstand
ing its action for some time-it proves
to possess, of all substances, the greatest
antiseptic power, SO that germ treated
with the article. unless perchance it gets
into the blood or is exposed to very ex-
ceptional conditions, is powerless to
grow-that is, it is probable that 1. spore
of fsubtilis or anthrax treated with subli-
mate, in 1000, and then thrown on the
soil or into water, will not germinate,
owing to the fact that the capsula OF
sublimate surrounding it is not removed.
It is found that corrosive sublimate
forms with cellulose, as cloth, filter pa
per, etc., with silk, with albuminous
bodies, with some part of bacteria, prob
ably the envelope, g. chemical compound
that cannot be removed with any amount
of washing in water. Thus sublimate
when acting on a germ forms capsule
around it that protects the germ for a
time from the further action of tho sub.
Innate and in turn forms an impenetrar
ble barrier to the growth Of the organism
unless removed. This barrier may here
moved with saines.

Old Time Banking Methods.

While discussing the matter of the
troubles and trials of banking business
of today President James Espy of tho
Ohio Valley National bank said to a
group of friends: II tell you that we do
not know anything about the peculiari-
ties of the banking business. l have
heard officials of the bank when was be-
ginning in the business rehearse the expe-
riencesi in early banking in Virginia. As
iswell known, the residents of that state
were not much given to business tactics.
Whenever they had occasion to issue a
note, and it was quite frequent, the bank
officials had to drive around to the vari-
GUS farms, or to the place where the
maker lived, and it was quite difficult to
get them to sign the original. but much
more 80 renewal. Experts got SO they
could tell whether the note was renewed
in the house or in the field, as they could
tell whether it was written on the pom
mel Of saddle or at q regular desk. -

Machine Work aud Handworls.

It is to be remembered that, notwith-
ing oil we hear of the vast superiority
of machine over handwork, this ma
chinery mnst itself possess Us great, if
not greater, accuracy and refinement
than the product manufactured by it.
No machine can in this respect be SUI
perior to. its maker. 1t can only produce
sufficiently accurate and good work at
lower cost than if made by him. The
first sewing machine of kind, built by
skilled machinists or toolmakers, is at
least as good and as accurately made as
any subsequently manufactured by ma
chinery, and the same men can dupli-
cate it more exactly than can any ma
chinery, but machines built thus would
cost far more than people could afford ~
pay for them, and that is all there is to
the talk of the substitution of tho seer
tainty and accuracy of machinery for the
uncertainty and inaccuracy of hand
work. ."-Scribner's Magazine.

"Well," she said, with an I-told-you

Our Cthcr Self.

Each Of us has two selves, the higher
and the lower. When God seems out of
reach, as is often the case. and our pray
ers return to us heavier and sadder than
when. they left our lips, it is good
plan to commune with that alter ego
which is shade nearer the divine. that
part which longs to help and to over
come, but is held down by the infirmi-
ties of the lower nature. Ask it for
strength and instruction, and by 80 do
ing help the whole man. God is so often
beautifully found in such ways.-Ameri-

both De la Rive, the French savant, and
Lenstrom, the Swedish astronomer. In

mountain was surrounded with coil OF
