THE MERMAID.

The Caspian sea is the largest inclosed
body of water in the world. 1t is about
74o miles in length and 200 miles in breadth.
The Mediterranean has been commonly
supposed to he a sea without tides; but, as
a matter of fact, at Venice there is a tide in
the spring of from one to two feet.
The lakes of Switzerland are great set
thing beds for glacier mud. Every one has
a gray river flowing into its upper end, a
blue river leaving it at the other. Eleven
miles of the head of Lake Geneva nave been
filled up with the gray glacier grit of the
Rhone.
The Congo is the most wonderful water
way in the world. 1t is 25 miles across in
parts, so that vessels may pass one another
and yet be out of sight. 1t has twice the
extent of the navigable waters of the Mis-
sissippi and it's tributaries and three times
the population along the banks.

BAD

1mperfections In Eyesight as a Bridge
Leading to Defective photography.
A man who is constantly reading ought,
of course, to be able to spell the words
which he is repeatedly seeing on the page
before him. Yet, as we know, it often hap
pens that great readers are exceedingly bad
spoilers. Why is this? We believe it is
because the bad speller sees and reads each
word as n whole-as a grammaloRue or
thought symbol, that is, and not as so
many letters. All people, of course, do this
to some extent, but we believe that the ed
ucated bad speller does it very much more
than the good speller.
The ordinary man, puzzled about q word,
writes it to see how it looks, and this look
tells hin ut once whether he has spelled it
right or wrong. The true bad speller is,
however. not helped the very least bit in
the world by this process. He is only the
more puzzled by the writing on the blot
ting pad. He may write the word n dozen
ways and not get one version which looks
to him better than the others. The truth
is his eyes have some defect, probably of
focusing power, which prevents him seeing
clearly the letters of the words. When he
learns to read, he learns to read verbatim
and not literatim, and hence he sees and

not r C V e." with the sc" always fol-
lowing the ''c'' and in front of the ST."
This is why bad spoilers will almost in
variably be found to havc been slow in
learning to read. They were taught to
read literally, but found great difficulty in
the process, owing to defective eyesight.
and SO had slowly and laboriously to learn
the words rs symbols of ideas, not as COM
pounded letters. In a word, bad spellingis
a defect of the eyesight, not of the mind,
and in all probability many a case of ina
bility to learn to spell might be cured in
children by the right pair Of spectacles.
1t is not short sight that makes the bad
speller so much as oversight and difficulty
in focusing the eye. Short sighted people
are indeed apt to spell we'll. They hold
the book close to the eye and see every let
ter standing out clearly, for, as is well
known. the effect Of the short sighted eye
is to magnify. The long sighted eye, on
the other hand, sees small prints as a ON
fused and indist.nct mass. The general
look of the word is detected, but not the
letters which make it up.-London Specta-
tor.

Hourget's Methods.

NJ. Bourget has n peculiar way of writing
his novels. After outlining his story, he
proceeds to create the characters whose
mental and moral Developments he pur-
poses analysing. He prepares separate and
complete lives of each in detail and then
proceeds to write the story, turning it Off
at u great speed, never debating, and often
allowing days and nights to pass UNDECIDED.
After his first writing he copies it with
numerous alterations and repeats tho pro-
cess IA third time before tho story goes to

How Eskimos Catch Birds.

A method Of catching birds by the chill
dren of the far north is by means of Q net
stretched across an old iron hoop taken
from some wrecked whaler. All through
the summer months great numbers Of
phalarope are to be found along the shore.
The little boys set the hoop net in the wa
ter about three feet from the beach, work.
ing it into the sand until it will stand
alone; then with a small line attached to
the top of the hoop they go up the beach
and scoop out a place in the sand to hide
In and await the coming of the birds, which
are constantly going to and fro near the
beach, and as they feed in the ripple or
wash along the shore the most Of them
will pass between the hoop and the beach.
When a lumber of birds are directly in
front OF the trap a smart pull on the line
brings the machine down over the birds,
often catching from three to six at one fall
of the trap. In a few hours they will catch
q hundred or more birds.-Forest and

Little Oscars Small Trout.

There is a great brook which flows past
Oscars house in the spring and autumn,
but in summer 1t runs dry. One warm June
day Oscar found a fish in a little pool;
everywhere else the channel Of the brook
was empty, and soon the tiny pool would
be dry, too, and then the poor fish must die.
Oscar took pity on him. He carried him
home in his dinner pail and threw him into
the well. There the little fish lived and
fourished, and it was Oscars delight to
watch him as he swan around in circles.
Oscar kept him several years, but once he
was going from home on a long journey
and he was afraid that his pet might be
neglected in his absence. So he concluded
to put him into the lake into which the
brook flowed.
After Oscar had thrown him in be stood
IN the shore OF the lake and watched to see
what the little fellow would do when he
found himself at liberty. The water was
clear and still, and the tiny trout could be
distinctly seen through the CLASSY waves.
Now, what do you think this little silly
fish did? The great lake was before him,
and he could 20 just where he pleased, but
instead Of darling from place to place like
the other fishes he only swan around in
tiny circles just RS large as the wen in
which he used to live.-Youth's Com

TIE ATLANTIC SHORT LINE.

President John h. Young Says There

President John r. Young Of the Atlantic
Short Line arrived Ill the city yesterday

where it meets the Atlantic Short Line,
which Is partially completed to Savannah
President Young's trip to Macon in COM
pany with the western capitalists was be-
lieved to have some special significance. 1t
has been long thought that the Macon, Dub
lin and Savannah railway would buy the
Atlantic Short Line, formerly the Macon
and Atlantic railroad, and complete 1t to
Savannah.
President Young was asked yesterday
what developments there we're on this line,
il any. He replied that there were none.

TEE ORPHAN HOME CONCERT.
A DeliRhtful Entertainments at MI
Joseph Hun's Residence.

a Deliahtful Entertainment at Mr..
Joseph Hull's Residence.
The concert at Mr.. Joseph Hull's residence
on Bull street last night for the benefit Of
the sick children Of the Episcopal Orphans
homes was great success. The handsome
parlors were crowded to their utmost. Ex-
actly 800 tickets were sold for the concert,
netting $3.50, besides what was received
from the sale OF refreshments.
That something good was expected was
evidenced by the large number of people
who attended, and they were not disap-
pointed. A very interesting programme
was rendered. 1t opened with piano duet.
MY First Rondo," by little Misses Albert
and Missile Hull. The next was a vocal solo,
THE Rest Of the Story by Mrs. Finnie.
Martha" piana duet, was rendered by
Misses Kate and Freda Rauers, the little
daughters Of Mr. Jacob Rauers.
A violin solo, "Reverie,n was rendered
by Master Clarence Connerat, accompanied
by Miss Albert Hull.
Miss Lucy Boyd. the young daughter Of
DR.. M. L. Boyd, recited THE Last
String"
Mrs. Walter Charlton and Mr.. Alvin
Johnston rendered piano and flute duet.
My Lsdy's Bower" was sung by Mr.. w. f.
Blois, and dear Heart" was sung by Mrs.
Flnnie.
The programme concluded with piano
duet. Spanish Dsnce,n by Misses Mary
and Annie Haines, accompanied by Miss
Fanny Charlton and Misses Albert and
Missile Hull, with the castanets, tembourine
and triangle.
The programme was greatly enjoyed. All
the participants acquitted themselves ad-
mirably and encores were demanded in
every instance.
An epidemic of scarlet fever has been
raging in the Episcopal Orphans home for
several weeks. There have been three
deaths among the children and there are
now thirteen cases of fever in the home.
The lady managers feeling the need Of more
means than they had at hand with which to
fight the disease decided upon this means Of
increasing their funds.
A great portion Of the success Of the
affair is due to Mr.. and Mrs. Hull, who
threw open their handsome home for the
occasion and who were SO active in their
efforts in it's behalf.

CAROLINA's LIQUOR LAW.
The First Fight on 1t Begun by So
loonkeepers of Chester,

The First Fight on 1t Begun by Sa-
loonkeepers of Chester.
COLUMBIA, s. c., Jan. 25.-The first
move in the dispepsary fight was made to-
day when petitions were read before the
supreme court for the issuance of a rule to
require the town council Of Chester to show
cause why a writ of mandamus should not
issue requiring them to grant liquor licenses
for one year TO w. Fl. Hoover and Greschel
81 Co. The petition shows that the town
council refused to grant licenses for the full
year because Of the passage Of the dispen-
months to end when the dispen-
sary law is to 60 into effect.
The petition alleges that the act of
1888 allowing the town council to grant
licenses to sell liquors is mandatory and
that the dispsnsary law is unconstitutional
for the following reasons: That it is an act
to raise a revenue for the state, and should
have originated In the House instead OF the
Senate; that the bill was read three times
In the House; that the subject to which the
act relates is not expressed in its title. as
required by the constitution; that 1t clothes
the governor of the state with a power
prohibited by the constitution; that it was
never delegated by the people of South
Carolina in the constitution Of 1863 to the
state of South Carolina TO enter into a
mercantile business 10 sell spirituous liquors
for the purpose Of revenue; that il was
never delegated to the state government TO
create a monopoly for itself in the sale of
liquors; that no power has ever been dele
gated to appropriate $4,000 TO carry on
such business by the state. The court
granted the rule to show why a writ of
mandamus should not issue. returnable
