A Round Trip in America.

America is big country and they do
things in a big way. When an insular
British association meets at Edinburg or
Warwick the members confne themselves
to such reasonable excursions as Roslin
or the Forth Bridge, Stratford or Kenil-
worth. But the American Institute Of
Mechanical Engineers, which seems to
have its home in New York. readily ac-
cepted the hospitable invitation of San
Francisco. The mere going and return
ing involved direct journey Of 5000
miles; but by way of agreeable interlude
and the tightening OF scientific labors
many of the invited guests took a casual
northern trip to Alaska.-Sdturddy Re

AN OLD THEORY ATTACKED.
lis Childhood the Happiest Time in om
Lives?

Lives?
New York Ledger: 1t is often said that
childhood is the happiest time of our life,
out to admit this is to give to happiness a
very narrow definition. 1t to be uncon-
scious of anything but mere physical ex-
istence is to be happy, then one may pos
sibly allow that this is so; but to those
who look upon happiness as positive
instead of a negative quality, such a
view seems scarcely reasonable. The
same argument will hold good if
one declares that only those people who
are lowest in intellectual capabilities and
ideas are superlatively happy. In one
sense this may be SO, but the happiness
is not OF that order that the class of critics
would crave either for themselves or their
immediate circle. NothIagness in any
form cannot be thought desirable by in
telligent human beings, neither can that
form of pleasure that simply means ab-
5ence of discomfort and the enjoyment of
purely animal existence; indeed the term
happiness has so many definitions that it
seems impossible to define it other than
relatively.
What is the highest delight for one indi-
viduai would De misery unspeakaple for
another. 1t may be safely said that there
are times in later life, when after ones
intellectual and moral faculties are fully
developed, when seasons of enjoyment
occur, that may be looked back TO as filed
with more pleasure than the unconscious,
rollicking, kitten-like comfort of child
hood can ever dream of. 1t is difficult,
indeed, to fix standard, and SO we must
allow that this old theory of the delights
of childhood days is about as near the
actual fact as the old theories of most
things are likely to be.
There is more pleasure in the anticipa-
ton Of one young and trusting heart
than in all the animal comfort of youth
ful days. If by happiness one means
freedom from care and responsibilities,
the definition might stand; but the alb
ent Incidence of the pleasure seeker are
scarcely to be rated as high type of hu-
man enjoyment.

Plenty of Snow a Blessing.

Lancaster Herald.
We have been blessed with plenty of
snow thus far this winter. It is true
that not little inconvenience has
been experienced by the railroads and
travelling public in consequence of the
heavy fall of snow, but all this is hand
5omely compensated for in the knowl-
edge that a good coating of snow is as
beneficial to the grass crop and winter
wheat as any fertilizer known. It
contains valuable fertilizing qualities
that could not possibly be possessed
by anything else, for it protects the
roots of plants from the extreme cold,
keeps the ground warm, and renders it
less subject to upheavals from frosts
in the spring. A cold, steady winter
is an advantage to the entire business
of the country.

Notes About Al1igators.

There is nothing that gator likes bet
ter than fresh pork, and he will toddle
three miles from water for Florida
razorback. In cool weather he buries
himself in mud and becomes dormant
until it grows warm. Hunters still make
a living by killing him for his hide and
teeth. The killing of alligators from the
decks of river steamers in Florida has
been stopped by law. Tourists became
very careless in their use of firearms, and
would endanger the lives of passengers
in their haste to get shot before the
boat got by plump saurian. Yet it is
remarkable that only one person, a
woman, was ever wounded in these
reckless fusillades.-New York Sun.

About four o'clock Monday after
noon the alarm of fire brought large
number of people out and it was found
that the southwest corner of building
on Fountain street owned by Mrs.
Gravel, and occupied by Frank Kelly,
was On fire. 1t appears that Mrs.
Kelly had gone to neighbor for a
few moments and had left her two
children locked in the kitchen. The
older of the two, about three years old,
according to his story, had built a fire
in the woodbox, and in a short time
the smoke nearly strangled the little
ones. When the fire was discoved by
Al Gibson that il had made such head
way that all eff orts to save the build
ing was useless, md it was only with
difficulty that thu children were saved.
Then the work Of saving the furniture,
etc. was in orr er and nearly every
thing was taken out.

This horse can see a broken insulator
quicker than his rider, and always stops
when one is reached. 1t is hardly neces-
sary to add that the horse can telegraph
with his feet, but no ore knows what
he "signs." The same fireman owns
dog who can tell by the bell attached to
the district messenger register when
certain firm rings call. The dog at
once runs to the store, takes the message
in his mouth and delivers it safely at
