WORDS OF WISDOM.

Obstinscy is good for nothing; it is
the caricature of firmness.
How shall we behave on great occa-
sions if we are weak in little ones?
When we give ourselves up to our
passions we plant thorns round our
heart.
There is nothing else so sweet as
duty, and all the pleasures OF Life come
in the wake of duties done
The Chinese have saying that
drunkenness does not produce faults; !;
it discloses them; fortune does not
change manners; it uncovers them. "
), Chronic kickers and caustic COM
planners are not always pleasant com
panions, but they manage to do their
share of prodding the world up until
it makes pro0resS.

The Goat to Have His Day.

The most popular place in New York,
if the cholera comes, should be Shauty-
town, and the proudest animal on the
island will be the goat. For DR..
Klemperer, of Berlin, after going over
the subject of securing immunity against
cholera, and after trying all methods OF
vaccination, including the swallowing
of pint of choleis bouillon, finds that
the milk of an immunized goat does the
work best and most easily. The price
of goats has been $5 and upward.
When cholera comes, this much ridiculed
animal may take a position in history
higher than the sacred bull of Egypt or
the yaccinated calf of Jenner. Harlem.

York, and not an uptown annex

A Woman's Presence of Mind.

There are few who are not familiar
with the story of elizabeth; or the
Exile of Siberia" but there are not
many who knew that the author, Nine.
Sophie Coffin, was not only a woman
of genius, but patriot whose sym
pathy for distress made her risk her
own life without 6 question or hesita'
tion.
She was widow, young and beauti-
full, and who, mourning her husband,
inconsolable, retired from the world
and in her strict seclusion devoted her
self to literary work. While the reign
of terror was ct it's height man whose
name Was on the prescribed list,
but who was personally unknown to
her, appealed to her for aid. He was
in hiding, doomed to the guillotine
should he be arrested. To assist him
meant, in case of detection arrest and
death for herself. But notwithstand-
ing this she went to work at once to
complete an unfinished story that she
might have money for him when he
came. While thus. engaged she was
SURPRISED by a doniciliary visit from
the gendarmes. The compromising let
ter lay upon her desk.
With wonderful presence OF mind,
she explained that she was a literary
woman engaged in her usual occupa-
tioa and offered to read portion Of
what she had written. They were
soldiers themselves, and she read with
all the dramatic power she possessed
the entire manuscript SO far as it had
been completed. They were charmed
and gratifed and went away, refrain
ing from searching the papers or
molest;ng her in any way.-Detroit

journey-dcpends entirely upon the
circumference of its drivingwheels.
No matter What the rate of speed may
be. fc- every one round of the driving
wheels, a locomotive will give four
puffs, two out of each cylinder, the
cylinders being double.
The sizes OF driving-wheels vary,
some being eighteen, nineteen, twenty,
and even twenty feet in circumfer-
ence, although they ore generally made
about twenty feet.
The express speed varies from fifty.
four to. llfty-oisht uilcs IN hour. Tak.
ing the average circumference OF the
driving-wheel to be twenty feet and
the speed per hour fifty miles, loco
motive will give, going at express
speed, $50 puffs per minute, or 81, 500
puffs per hour, the wheel revolving
13,200 tirss in sixty minutes, giving
1866 pufs per mile. Therefore an ex-
