centers which supply the brain with nerve

Great. Britain has been stretching
her wings over India. In 1912 she laid
claim to 6o6, 600 square miles of that
country. She made additions to this
every year except l843, 1915, and 1852.
down to 1856, when her possessions
aggregated $4,000 square miles. Adj
yances were made in 1866, 1882 and 1856,
and now the area of India under
British rule is 927,Ss7 square miles.
British India is larger thanall that part
of the United States lying east of the

Eyes ON Crowded Street.
The sidewalk was filed with hurry
ing people, says the New York Times.
Three peddlers stood on the curb, one
with shoe laces, another with candy,
another with gold paint Neither
looked as if he expected to sell any
thing. Nobody paid the slightest at
tention to them. a man without legs
came stumping over the sidewalk.
People merely hurried out of his way.
A man passed. dressed in outlandish
garments. advertising a patent medi-
cine. Nobody looked twice at him.
An old woman whose tangled gray
hairs were blown in the wind shuff1ed
feebly along and nobody saw her. A
pair of Chinese, an Italian woman
. dressed as for a fete, a negro nearly
seven feet in height, a Turk swaddled
in turban and baggy trousers, a drunk.
en- woman, man with locomotor
ataxia-all passed within a few min
utes and nobody stopped even for a
. moment to look at anybody else, except
the beggars. and they were utterly dis
regarded.
Then appeared from somewhere, as
if out of hole in the ground, child
about two years old, ragged and
| smeared as to it's hands with mud and
as to it's face with traces of bread and
molasses. besides plain dirt Its hair
was tousled and it's large blue eyes
were fixed straight ahead with all that
sweet Inconsistencies of childhood
written of by poets. In its hands it
carried a gray cat. One little fist
grabbed the loose skin at the nape,
the other grasped it firmly over the
| hind quarters. Each particular leg OF
the cat struck out straight and rigid;
each claw showed it's shining curve.
The cat did not appear to be uncom.
Portable, and the child was glorlously
unconscious of every thing but it's own
baby thoughts. The child was SO youne
that it went unsteadily, tottering down
the middle OF the sidewalk, with the
| cat held up in front of it like a drum
| majors staff. There was not one hur'
rying wayfarer-man or woman-whc
did not pause and laugh. A number
stopped short and followed the child
as it staggered along. By the time the
baby had travelled half block it had
an escort of twenty grown persons be-
sides the swarm of boys. The baby
tottered along, it's magnificent gravity
undisturbed, and when breathless

themselves on the surface of a small

end William H. Sew ard, and now we give
Gen. Grants opinion Of that po]itico.re~
ligious organization which was the FORE
runner of the A. P. A. Of the present day.
In his Memoirs he gives an account OF
how he bacame member of that party
and how he left it. He says: "Most OF
my neighbors in Galena, ILL.,, had known
me as an officer of the army with Wing
proclivities. They had been on the same
side, aud on the death of their party
many had become Know-Nothings or
members of the American party. Their
lodge was near my new home, and / was
invited to join it. accepted heinvita-
ton; attended meeting just one week
later, and never went to another after
wards
He saw the trne spirit of that organiza-
ton and his patriotic heart revoited
against it. He continues:
Il have no apologies to make for hav-
ing been for one week member of the
Americ an party, for I still think that
native.born citizens OF tho United States
shonld have as much protection, as many
privileges in their native country as those
who voluntarily select it for home.
"But all secret, cath bound political
parties are dangerous to any nation, 10
matter how pure or how patriotic the
motives and principles which first bring
them together. No political party ought
to exist when one of it's corner-stones is

With every indication that coal is
going up it is timely to suggest that q
couple of girls in Paris used to keep
themselves warm by burning orange
peel and empty spools. Corks are also
recommended. There is a story told of
q well-known English curate who peck
eted every cork he came across at a
dinner table. When questioned as to
this singular habit he blushed and said
he gave them to the poor. A sufficient
number Of corks would keep a coalless

Sixty Miles of L.ocusts.

The African Steamship company's
steamer Winnebah, which lately dr..
rived from West Africa at Liverpool,
had a most unusual experience when
steaming between the ATTITUDES OF
Cape Verde and st. Louis, Senegal.
For sixty miles the vessel steamed
through locusts. which were so thiclsiy
packed together on the top OF the
water that they completely covered
the surface for miles around. Indeed,
they. appeared to be lying on the sea
as far as the eye could reach. The
locusts had no doubt been blown from
the Morocco coast into the sea. They
resembled gigantic grasshoppers, and
one which was secured was five inches
in length. Of course, all of the locusts
had been drowned.

Different ideas exist in England
from those prevalent in Germany with
regard to the attitude to be adopted by
soldiers toward escaping prisoners.
Whereas Emperor William some time
ago aroused much unpleasant COM

had shot at and killed in crowded

TWO suPERsT,T,oNs.
Friday and Thirteen Have u Remarkable
Hold on Several NatiOnalities.

Friday and Thirteen Have y Remarkable
Hold on Several Nationalities.
! Neither the Friday nor the thirteen
superstition is traceable to any salts
factory source, says the Philadelphia
Bulletin. In the case of the first we
find the superstition obtaining alike
with the English, the Swedish and the
Indian races, and with each going back
to some belief concerning worshiped
being or religious rite. But there
the whole matter ends. In the case of
the English speaking Christian, the
fact that Friday the cruci6xion took
place is assigned as the reason for Sc
Letting that day from the other six days
as of especial significance. But accord
ing to this very argument that day
should be one of good omen rather
than one Of ill, since the event with
which the day is connected augured
the salvation. not the condemnation,
of the disciples of Christianity. Fri
day in no way can be explained as a
day for fear. though it may be as one
of great sorrow and thankfulness.
Neither does the NEUROLOGICAL ex-
PLANTATION of Fridays signi6cancy
offered in the case of the eastern and
Scandinavian people account any more
satisfactorily for the superstition, and
with the number thirteen the results
of investigation are the same. The
plain fact is that Friday and thirteen
are indelibly marked by superstition,
have been SO marked as far back as
history relates, and probably always
will be so marked. The present aver
sion to the day and the number is not
deductive but MISUNDERSTANDING, but
none the less positively, instructive
and, in a large measure, irradicable,
despite education and religious teach
ing.
There have been many blows admin
istered to the superstitions, particular
ly of recent years. New York is the
birthplace of thirteen club. which
has thirteen members, meets always
the thirteenth of the month, and in a
house numbered thirteen. But the
negative influence which this organiza-
ton has exerted so far is not percepti-
BILE. Neither is the campaign con-
Quoted by ministers, scholars and
teachers any more effective. All that
these attacks have accomplished has
not been sufficient to be felt. Super
stition is as illogical as it is tenacious,
and human endeavor to break it down
is not likely to succeed.

Has III Good Points.

In some villages in Japan robbers
are tried and convicted by ballot.
Whenever robbery is committed the
ruler of the hamlet summons the en-
tire male population and requests
them to write on a slip of paper the
name of the person they suspect as
having committed the crime. The one
receiving the largest number of ballots
is declared duly elected" and is ac-
cordingly hung. This system, like all
others, has it's peculiar advantages. 1t
insures the punishment of somebody
for every crime committed, whereas
under the system in vogue in most civ
ilized countries in nine cases out of
ten no punishment is inflicted on any
body for the crime. Of course, they
may not ''elect" the guilty person, but
dispose Of some other character equally
as bad. There is much in the system
to commend it to other nations. .
