Americans "a Tall People.

An article in the Bulletin de Pin
stitute International de Statisque" gives,
as result of certain inquiry, the
average height of different nations. The
English professional classes, who head
the list as the tallest of adult males,
attain the average height of feet 9t
inches. Next on the list come the
American males, and minute fraction
behind them come the English of all
classes. Hence we may conclude that,
taken right through, the English and
American races are approximately OF the
same height. Most European nations
average, for the adult male feet 6
inches; but the Austrians, Spaniards
and Portuguese just fall short of this
standard. - London Lancet.

Life Averages.

At twenty years of age a temperate
person is supposed TO have a chance of
living for forty-four years. Should the
same person, still living temperate life.
reach the age of sixty-tive, the chances
are that he will live fourteen years longer.
At twenty years of age an incorporate
person is calculated TO have chance of
living only to the age of thirty five,
while If he survives sixty his chance Of
life is limited to eight years more. The
death rate among the intemperstc on beer
is about forty-six per 1000, while that
of incorporate on spirits reaches the high
average of sixty per l,000.-[Tid Bits.

Making Glass Eyes.

In Thuringia there is whole district
which is dependent for its support on
the manufacture of artificial eyes; hus-
bands, wives and children all working
together at this same means OF livelihood.
And yet, though these simple German
village people turn out their produce by
the dozen, no two eyes are ever the same.
No artificial eye has its exact fellow
either in color or in size in the whole
world The method of manufacture is
not very complicated art. There are
firstly glass plates. which are blown by
gas jets, then moulded by hand into the
form of an oval-shaped cup. Then there
is the coloring of the eyes, which is
effected 10y the means of tracing with
fine needles, the tints being left TO the
taste of the individual worker, though
the scope of their taste is necessarily
limited to grays and blues, and browns
and blacks, which colors are assorted
together before being eventually dis
patched to their VARIOUS destinations

Juggling Bees.

While on a recent trip out into the
country / saw q farmer rid himself of
several nests of bumble-bees in q very
ticular field which was being ploughed
over for the fall sowing was especially
infested with the troublesome insects,
and ploughboy the day before had been
badly stung. The farmer asked me to go
with him and see the boys "jug the
bees" A common brown jug half filled
with water was taken along. One of the
boys led the way to an especially large
and dangerous-looking nest lying on the
stubble close to the ground. The jug
was cautiously deposited by the side of
the nest. Then, with a long branch of
a tree, the nest was violently stirred, and
the lad fled for his life. In perfect
swarm the bees flew out to see who had
dared assault their castle, and circled
angriy about, buzzing violently all the
time. From a safe distance the farmer
and lilo boys threw clouds of dirt and
stones Mt the angry insects. They seemed
to be looking for their enemy. Gradu-
ally their numbers grew less, and at
last there were no bees to be seen.
''Let us look into the Jug" said the
farmer, as he led the way. 1t was picked
up and its contents poured out on to the
ground with difficulty, as 154 bumble-
bees, by actual count, had flown into the
Jug. in vain effort to find the destroyer
of their home, and had drowned. l
walked back with one of the boys to a
spring to fill the jug with clear water,
preparatory to an attack on another col
0ny of bees. AS we trudged over the
sunny fields the berry brown lad re-
marked, "I'd rather jug bees than ploug h
any day, wouldn't you?"-ISt Louis

Types In the Midway Plaisance.

1t is in the exact degree of the facial
angle, as has sometimes been said, that
all the difference lies between the poet
and the philanthropist, the criminal and
the saint. One is tempted as one looks
at these faces here, however, to go even
farther than this, and to say that the
degree to the angle has been given by
conditions outside the power of the un-
enlightened individual TO control, condi-
tions that belong to great epochs, to
races, tribes ami nations. Hungry gen.
erations have passed these sometimes
down, while they have raised others. In
some faces you see the submission of the
ignoble, in others the cunning of the
trickster, or again the alertness of the
noble hunter. You read a nations
history almost in the facial angle. You
begin to fancy, too, you might discover
its capacities by an old mathematical
rule. For instance, if you wished to dis
cover the mental and moral capacities OF a
race, the angle of whose typical face was
pitched at certain number of degrees,
you would square the animal man (the
base of the triangle), whose measure you
would find in the lower part Of the face,
and square the ideal man (the perpendic-
ular of the triangle), whose measure you
would find running from below the ear
to the top of the head, add these and ex-
tract the square root, and you would
have the mental and moral capacities of
the man-in other words, of the race he
typifes the square of the hypothenuse
of right-angled triangle being equal to
the sums of the squares of the other two
Sides.
Leaving mathematical ventures quite
apart, however. one can hardly look at
these faces without being impressed. Ii
inspires one to study, to contemplation,
and TO theory. 1t arouses anew in the
mind of every observer a sense Of de-
lighted surprise that by doing so simple
a thing as turning into the street of the
Midway Plaisance one may find types Of
wild nations that one has hitherto had to
roam the waste places Of the earth to see.-

I" The Man of Iron.

''The Man of Irou," otherwise "Giles

to death during the witchcraft persecu-
tions at Salem, Mass. His real name
was Giles Corey, and at the time of his
awful death he was an old man past so.
When accused of being wizard (Which
the Salem lunstics seem to have consid-
cred the masculine of "witch'D, he calm

A SMART M AN.

Henry Willard may not be, as Brayton Ives says he is, "the ehrewdest, -wlliest, least scrupulous and most successful finan- cisl adventurer that has ever come to this country" but he is undoubtedly "smart." If he were not he couldn't have twice been the chief figure in the wreck of big rail road, and drawn upon himself such mall edictions as he is now getting from some who are just as good as he is. His career has been an astounding one, even for this country of big opportunities. He was young German newspaper writer in Oregon when Jay Cooke went down during the financial troubles in 1873, and stop. was put to the construction of the North ern Pacific, of which he WAS the fnanoier. At that time Willard saw his opportunity. Availiug himself of his acquaintance with German capitalists who held very large amounts of the roads securities, he gained their confidence and support, and then, by their aid, got control of the company, with its uncompleted railroad and its enormous and exceedingly valuable franchises. Then i commenced series of operations that re- suited in the completion of the main lines 1 from the lakes to the Pacific ocean, and in numerous subsidiary speculations for which the credit of the chief enterprise was pledged. In few years these side issues had so weighted down and handi. capped the railroad company that 1t be.

 in regaining the confidence of Germa,
 capitalists and in keenly watching finsn
