masses who at fifteen find a four-ycars
course ahead Of them know that It is
too long for their purpose and they are
compelled by memorable circumstances to
seek the necessary training in the school
Of hard work.
The second objection relates to the
time required to complete the COURSE.
No one will dissent from the opinion
held by the professor that the interest OF
80 per cent Of high school pupils de-
mands an English course Of three years
which can be entered upon at the age Of
10. This would imply the completion Of
the elementary course Of study In six
years, time. enough, In the opinion Of
this educator, for the average pupl. IN
order, however to do this Mr.. Hnnmon
suggests II pruning Of the present pre-
scribed course, the providing Of Incentives
to get on, aud granting Of diplomas, and
he believes that these. supplemented By
three years course Ia the high schools,
would increase largely the number who
would enter the high schools. lie further
advocates the creation Of state high
school board, the duty Of which should be
to determine the qualification Of high
school teachers. to establish the course
Of study, to tx standards and to inspect
work. This and other suggestions as 10
the duty of the state relating to public
schools show that the gentleman has
made the subject Of popular education q

The latest craze in Boston is the
compound oxygen drunk" said \. W.
Floyd, of Springfield Mass. There
are half dozen establishments in the
Hub that are doing a rushing business
in catering to this form of dissipation.
They are patronizcd exclusively by men
and women of the highest social po-
sltlon, the women outnumbering the
men.
The sensation produced by the inhaI-
alton of compound oxygen is described
to me by those who have tried it as &C.
static. There is nothing known to the
science of medicine or pharmacy that
equals its delights. Big quafis of it
that fill the lungs air cells are said to
set all the nerves of the body a-tingle
and the brain in delicious twirl.
The effect lasts all the way from five
minutes to an hour, according to the
person, and is said to have no appar-
emily deleterious results, except q
peculiar mental collapse, from which
the dissipator doesn't recover for sew
eral hours. While under the strange
influence of the stuff one feels com
pletely lost to the world and oblivious
to everything terrestrial That is the
reason it i. called the compound oxygen
drunk.

Gigantic Extinct Rirds.

Those who have read the story of
Slnbad the Sailor, and who has not,
will be interested to know that there is
some foundation for the supposed to be
fabulous stories he told of the roc and
its monster eggs Ornithologists have
figured that it was monster specimen
of the Epinoris family of birds, which
are known to have formerly lived in
Madagascar. The prize takers among
the Epinoris stood according to skee-
tons which have been found in guano
beds fraction of twelve feet high, and
laid eggs, specimens of which are now
in existence, which were as large as
two-gallon Jug and had holding
capacity as great as 14S good sized hens
eggs. The giant moa, which did not
become extinct until after Capt. Cooks
visit to New Zealand, was larger in
point of weight and bulk, at least, than
Sinbads roc. The moa was but nine
feet high, but he weighed over thous
and pounds. 1t was so clumsy that
Cooks sailors had no difficulty in kill
ing several of them with the handspikes
which were used about the ship The
great aux, another species of bird now
extinct, was not so remarkable for its
size as for the fabulous sum of money
now asked and given for specimens of
its eggs. In the year 1889 an egg of
the great aux sold in London for G225.

The Reformed Smokers.

Two men, both smoking stumps of
cigars, met this morning.
Il am smoking too much" one OF
them said "and believe you are. Let's

Every Person May Claim l39."35, ,NI7. 80.
534,976 Ancestors.
Did you ever stop to think how many
male and female ancestors were reuuirc !
to bring you into the world? Let us
reason together on this subject, SAYS
the st. Louis Globe Democrat, and see il
we can not prove it to be most curious
aud interesting theme to write and tulk
about. First, it was very necessary
that YOU should have a father and q
mo;her-that makes two human beings.
Each of them must have had fat her
and a mother-that makes four more
human beings.
Then, again, each OF these four had
a father and mother, making eight
more representatives of Gods gre test
handlwork. So We go on back to tho
birth of Christ, or through fifty-siv gem
erations in all. The result Of such a
calculation, which can be made in few
minutes by any school child. will show
that l39, 235, OF ,4S9, ,534, $40 births
must have taken place in order to bring
you into this world.
Yes, you who read these lines. All
this. too, since the beginning of the
Christian era, not since the beginning
of time, by any II cans. According to
Proctor if from single pair for 5000
years each husband and wife had mar
ried at twenty one years of age, and
there had been no deaths, the popula-
tion of the earth would now be 2,199,-
915, followed by l44 ciphers. Verify,
the human mind shrinks from contem-
plating such immense numbers.

Light and Sound.

1t Is now we'll known that beam OF
light produces sound, although con.
t!ritlvcly few epple have had an OBJ
p"rtumity to test the fact for them
selves. 4 beam of Sunlight is thrown
through lens on Il glass vessel that
contains lampblack, rulorcd silk or
~orsted, or other substances. \ disc
having openings or Sits cut in it is
nade TO rtvolve swiftly in this beam of
n@ht so as to cut it up, thus making
alternate flashes of light and shadow.
IN putting the ear to the glass vessel
strange sounds are heard so long rs the
aaShing beam is falling on the vessel.
Recently more wonderful discovery
has been made. \ beam of sunlight is
caused to pass through prism, so as
20 proluce what is called the solar
spectrum or rainbow. The disc is
turned, and the colorcd light of the
rainbow is made to break through it.
Now place the ear to the vessel contain
ing the silk, wool, on other material,
A. the rolored lights of the spectrum
fall upon it, sounds will he given by
'liilercnt parts of the spectrum, and
there will be silence in other parts. For
instance, If the vessel contains red wor-
'ted, and the green light flashes upon
it, lond sounds will he given, Only
feeble sounds will he heard if the red
and blue parts of the rainbow fall upon
she vessel, and other colors make no
sound at all. Green silk gives sound
hest in red light Every kind of ma
terial gives more or less sound in differ.
ent rolors, and utters no sound in
others.

Symbolism of Green,

1t seems singular that green. the
color which is pre-eminently that of
hope and of youth, should be also so
generally regarded as unluckv In
some parts of the south of England rus
tic folks regard green with such an
aversion that they will not use it at all,
either III dress OF in the furnishing or
decoration of their homes, 4 few
years ago learned German. Doctor
CaSsel, of Berlin, published Il little book
