sattlea an oId war zasi,t.

John Railey, who lives about four
miles from Trimble, Tenn, is one Of the
happiest men IN tsse county. The cause
was the receipt, by expressofs 1886, not 9
cent of which he expectedstax receive.
In 1884 a squad of the Fsfty-fourth
Pennsylvania cavalry, who were out,on
scout endeavoring to learn something
Of the movements Of General Forrest,
camped at a spring Near Mr.. Railey's
residence. Tho following morning be-
fore departing they rode uprto Railey's 5,
sll but one, who was walking. The man
on foot went to the barn and led out
She finest horse there. Railey expostu
lated in vain.
''Let that horse loose. l wouldn't
take $3.50 for that horse, youslow down
Yankee thief, be angrily exclaimed.
Don't worry yourself SO, ,psrdner," !"
mildly replied the solsaier. "You see,
my horse died last night, and 4 am bound
to have another. IfIwere4to depend on
my feet to get me cut of this country,
Forrest would getme sure" And he took
the horse.
At that time Bailey was welk off, bu:
now he is poor. Recently he received a
letter signed Frank K. Walldran, which
contained $685., thepurchasewalue ofthe
horse andtlae accumulated interest. Mr..
Walldran lives in Reading, Pa, and
though fer long time himself the VIC

tity Of books being carried in stock. All
the books are delivered at the bookroom
in the Office building Of the board of ed
ucation, where they are counted, and
each one is stamped Property Board Of
Education, City of Rrooilyn,' and en-
tered on the receiving book The clerks
make up the orders for the several
schools, and the packages are sent to
their destinations by express.
A separate account of books received
and returned is kept at the headquarters
of the board Of education with each
school. The books are charged to the
principals, who IN tnrn charge them to
the teachers, the latter keeping track of
the disposition Of the volumes among
the pupils When the books become un-
fit for use, they arc turned in and re-
bound if expensive, and If cheap sold
for waste paper. All books when they
cannot be used any longer, whether fit
for rebinding or not, must be returned
to the board of education. IF pupils
willfully destroy them, they are obliged
to pay for others to replace the books de-
stroyed. In the case Of books lost by
pupils the teachers are vested with GER
tain degree of discretionary power
touching what measures if any shall be
taken to make good the loss.
How long the average schoolbook lasts
is matter for speculation The life of
the average book differs with the locality
Of the school and the character Of the
pupils. In some sections, for instance,
the books are converted into playthings
for the baby at home, while in others
the greatest pride is manifested in pre-
serving the books clean and unimpaired.
So, too, geography of good kind
will last frequently several years. while
one season Of work is generally the limit
of endurance Of primer. Whatever
may be the total number of books used
up in year, itais certain that the en-
ployees of the board who handle them
haven't ON overplvsT of leisure. From
the middle of JGnuaryt till March three
express wagons are kept constantly on
tho move distributing the packages to
the schools.
The number of pupils on register is
about 96,ets0, so that the per capita cost
for books is only a,little over$1 per year.
In the primary grades. where large
portion of tho total registry is found,
many Of the youngsters require only
states and primers. Higher up, however,
in the grammar schools and high schools
the cost of books for each pupil, if it
were not borne by the board, would
range froml$8 on "a to 81 or So per year,
SO that the free book system is universally
regarded as boon to the public school
children. Brooklyn Eagle.

Three Great Eavigators.

To review the work of Columbus
without referring to that of Vespucius
and Magellan would leave the story Of
new sea and world discovery discon-
nected and incomplete. This will be
patent when it is remembered that,
though believer in the rotundity of the
earth, it was not Columbus but Magel-
Ian who first physically demonstrated
that fact by circumnavigation. And Ma
gellan might have failed but for the pre-
vious work of Vespucius. The latter
had explored the Atlantic coast of South
America farther south than any of his
predecessors, and the south Atlantic
ocean eastward to the islands of South
Georgia, nearly to the parallel of Cape
Horn.
By this journey Vespucius demonstrate
ed with considerable degree of GER
tainty that the strait, which had for some
years been looked for, leading to the
elusive unknown sea that bounded the
eastern coast of Asia, was not to be found
through the new lands of the west north
of 54 degrees south, at all events. The
mouth of the Amazon, the bays of Rio
Janeiro and of the La Plata had been
explored and were found to contain
fresh water, SO that through none Of
these could an entrance to the unknown
sea on the farther west be found

The nHasinr of an Annie.

One end of the apple bears the name
of ''basin" and contains the remnants
Of the blossom-sometimes called the
eye of the fruit. This part of the apple
is deep in sornevarieties and shallow and
open in others. This is the weakest point
in the whole apple as concerns the ques-
ton of the keeping quality Of the fruit.
If the basin is shallow and the canal to
the core firmly closed, there is much less
likelihood of the fruit decaying than
when it is deep, and the evident opening
connects the center of the fruit with the
surface.-Professor B. D. Halsted in
Popular Science Monthly.
