Persons who intend to visit the great
Columbian Exposition make a great
mistake if they do not go early. Why:
First. Everything looks best when
fresh and new.
Second. Everything will, substan-
TALLY, be ready when the Fair opens,
May 1st, and it will cost less to live
in Chicago in May than at any later
time.
Third. If cholera should succeed
in getting foothold in this country, it
could not be kept out OF Chicago, and
no one would want to go to the Fair
then.
When talking with Vermonters in
Chicago while we were there in Janu-
airy, they universally commended the
action of the Press Association in de-
Gliding to come early in May, and they
would advise all who can to come in

smoking his pipe.
They were very old friends, for the
man had watched the girl grow from
childhood into womanhood. He was
but five years her senior. vet she
seemed more than five years younger

His first feelings toward her had
slowly changed with her increasing
years to one of extreme fondness. and

were-hcr anxiety about his inveterate
smoking, her little jealousies: all her
expressions of fondness for him came
before his mind.
Yet sometimes she seemed to relish
the cub admiration that her youthful
neighbors bestowed upon her. But
then probably she had not guessed of
his love, and perhaps word was
needed to light hers.
But that evening she would learn all.
Perhaps It was too soon, but-well, he
loved her For moment fieeting dread

else had talked of love to his little
sweetheart.
He covered her little soft warm hand

down into her gentle eyes.

A Wonderful Cave Temple.

The Gave Temple" OF Karli, India, is
rightly considered one of the greatest
wonders of the world. This gigantic
recess in the mountain ledge has been
ehiselled by human hands from por-
)hyry as hard as the hardest flint. The
ave is one hundred and twenty four
feet long, forty-tive feet broad, aud
forty-six feet from floor to ceiling. Be
core the entrance of the temple stands
monster stone elephant, upon whose
Jack is seated a colossal goddess all
hewn from one solid block of stone.
Like the temple walls and the outside
ornaments, every article of adjoining
sculpture on the inside is hewn from the
native rock. There are aisles on each
side, separated from the cave by octa-
gonal pillars of stone. The capital of
each pillar is crowned with two kneel-
ing elephants. on whose backs are seated
;wo figures representing the divinities
to whom the temple is dedicated. These
figures are perfect and of beautiful
features, as, indeed, are all the repre-
sentations of deities and divinfties in

Splitting o Second,

An instrument has been constructed
in Berlin, Prussia, by which the l, OOOth
part of a second can be measured and
registered, The instrument is very
large and is so heavy that six horses
We're recently required to transfer it
from one part of the workshop to an
other.
The instrument, is intended for use
in the measurement of the velocity of
cannon balls. The diameter of the dial
is 10 feet, and the hand, which makes
five revolutions each second, is 4 feet
long, its point travelling about 140 feet
1t each revolution.
The mechanism of the contrivance
is similar to that of a large tower clock.
The speed of the revolving hand is so
great that the hand can not be seen
when it is in motion, and it is photo
graphed automatically as is the cannon
ball whose speed it is required to meas
re.
When the BALLS discharged from the
.annon it passes through wire netting,
and at II certain distance through another

the conductors of an electric instan-
taneous Photographic apparatus.
The position of the hand of the in.
,trumcnt at the instant the ball leaves
the cannon, and again when it reaches
4 certain point, can be read from the
photographs.
The movement is controlled by an
electric connection with a pendulum
regulator, which exactly registers the
time consumed by the cannon ball in
It's travel, measuring one-thousundth of
