Some one at the hotel told the fat man,
who had weeks holiday, that horse
back riding was the finest exercise in
the world for reducing the flesh, so the
entleman with the surplus tissue rented
a horse for a week-a tough, why buck
skin broncho-and started in.
Every morning at 8 o'clock precisely
he mounted his steed in front of the ho-
tel, but no one ever saw him come back.
He was never at midday dinner, but he
appeared at the supper table, always
looking worn out and detected.
'How are you making out?" asked,his
adviser one night.
''Oh, pretty fair. Lost 20 pounds"

He said that was just the horse WANTED

The First English Slave Trader.

Sir John Hawkins was the first Eng
lish slave trader. He formed a company
composed Of the leading men Of London
and fitted out three small ships, which
sailed in 1862. Later Queen Elizabeth
lent Hawkins Jesus a large ship Of her
own of ZOO tons, and took shares in the
second African company. She not only
equipped the ship, but put 100 soldiers
ON board to provide for contingencies.
On the second voyage Hawkins bought
400 negroes and had a narrow escape
from losing them, owing to the lack Of
water when he was near the equator.
But, as he piously recorded in his log,
"The Almighty God would not suffer his
elect to perish, and sent breeze which
carried them safe to Dominica" This
was the beginning of the slave trade,
which lasted for more than two centu-
ries before it was finally suppressed

The shutters of the observers house
happened to be closed, and through a tiny
hole near the top of them a beam of
sunlight found its way to the floor.
There it left an image, clear and round,
tinged at the circumference with afringe
Of blue and orange. The whole appear
ance of the beam as projected reminded
the spectator Of the image Of the sun
taken on paper through telescope, and
he got a sheet Of white note paper in or
der to test his surmise. The result con-
firmed it. A beautiful round image OF
the sun fell on the paper, and near the
center thereof could be seen a blush
spot, which moved about with the i'm.
age whenever the paper was shifted.
The blush colored object was a verita-
BILE sun spot. and the observer watched
it by the simple means described for sew
eral days until the revolution Of the sun
had carried it out Of sight.-Boston Her

TRACING oNE,s ANcEsIRY.
Geneaiogy Appears TO BE One sided and
Partial Thing.

A conversation among group OF peo-
pie the other day, all Of whom were Of
good New England families, brought out
some curious admissions. Only one of
the party could trace his descent, in the
line of mothers, farther than to his grand
mother, though several could trace it
very much farther in the paternal line,
and even in what they called the ina
ternal line" which meant of course the
mothers fathers family. All present
could tell the maiden name Of their moth
ers mother, but only one could tell the
maiden name of her mother. OF course
many in New England among those gen
ealogically careful people who can tell
you the names Of all their TO great great
grandfathers and grandmothers can do
this. but these are comparatively few.
And those who cannot carry back the
line Of mothers more than three genera
tons include the representatives of some
Of the most aristocratic families in New
England, whose line of paternal descent
is unbroken to the settlement and beyond.
Let us think for moment what this
question involves. Suppose you write
down your own name. Then write down
ON one line just above it the names Of
your father and mother-the fathers
name first on the left, the mothers sec
ond on the right. You perceive that
these two people had an equal interest
in your being. There is atleasta chance
that you are like your mother in impor-
tant physical and mental respects.
% 4
two names the names of your grand
fathers and grandmothers, beginning
with your fathers father and ending
with your mothers mother. These two
couples again had as much interest in
your father and your mother as your
father and mother had in you, and there
/ is in you as much of your mothers
mother as there is Of your fathers IA
| Their. Now above this line write down
the names Of your eight grandparents
which you should surely be able to do if
you are a Yankee. Each one of these
eight had an equal interest in You. Now
you perceive that you have a pyramid
standing ON its apex. You are the apex.
The left hand edge of it is your line OF
fathers, and on the right hand of it is
your line of mothers.
In all likelihood you derive rather
more Of your characteristics from the
right hand edge Of the pyramid than you
do from the left and while in all prob
ability, if you are from a good New Eng
land family, you can go on stretching
out the left hand edge Of the inverted
pyramid you cannot 60 on with thu
right hand edge any farther, and thi
means that your genealogy is a one sideS
and partial thing Transcript.
