DESTROYS to hide their sentiment. After
ward there isno sign of a blush because
each knows that the other is aware Of
his or her sentiments and is no longer
afraid of their being known.
A child does not blush. That is be-
cause he has no idea Of hiding anything.
AS soon as he becomes old enough to
understand that it may be to his inter
est not to tell all that he has done or all
that passes in his mind he begins to
redden. 1t is the same with idiots. The
fear Of being unmasked does not exist,
and there is no blushing.
Fear, then, is the cause of this change
Of countenance, according to NJ. Nell
nard. We are more likely to turn red in
front of a number of people than when
we are face to face with one or two
only. Old people blush very seldom be-
cause they are not troubled with the fear
that other people will find them out.
This is a novel theory, with some good
points, but there are several objections
to it. 1t is a fact that we blush invol-
UNFAIRLY; we blush when we have moth
ing at all to hide in the presence of peo-
pie concerning whom we are quite in
different.
Girls and boys will sometimes turn
red when II inquiries about the health
of their father, mother or little brother.
That old people do not blush much is
owing not to the fact hat they have
nothing to hide, but because they know
better how to dissimulate.
According to M. Melinard's theory,
all old people must be paragons Of viz
tue and all young ones just the oppo-
site, which we beg leave to doubt.
Nevertheless there is some truth in
this new theory, and a study of this in
connection with the Darwinian theory
mentioned above will lead to some posi-
tive explanation of the psychology of
blushing Atlanta Constitution.

Slave CatohIng In Tonnnin.

While in most parts of the world, ex-
oept Africa, slave catching is becoming
a thing Of the past, the practice is still
carried ON to some extent in Tonquin in
spite Of the efforts of the French to put
an end to it. The practice Of exporting
them as slaves came about in this way:
In 1885 the Chinese soldiers who in
vaded Tonquin, which was in revolt
against China, found themselves encum-
bered by prisoners, but at last decided
to ship them to China and see if they
could not sell them. 1t was at this time
that emigration agencies were recruit
ing in China thousands of workmen to
toll on the guano islands of Chile. The
hundreds of male prisoners were easily
disposed of to these emigration agents,
and the women and children who were
among the un~fortunates were sold to
we'll to do Chinese.
This opened a new trade, although at
first it was not easy to sell the women,
because wealthy families did not wish
to have servants with black teeth,
caused by their practice of chewing the
betel nut. So small a price was asked
for them, however, that all the women
were finally sold. Today these women
are in demand in some parts of western
China. AS servants they are gentle,
obedient and laborious and are so high
ly esteemed that they command a good
price. Exchange

Tn Prohibition Maine.

A Journal reporter had a curious ex-
p%erience ut a Franklin county hotel q
few nights ago. He arrived at the place
after a long stage trip in the night
Every n was asleep but the clerk, and
he took the lamp and led the way up
stairs. After trying vainly to get into
n room and after much rafting of the
KEYS In the lock he suddenly recollected
that the new cook had been located
there earlier In the evening. The door
of the next room was securely locked,
and there was no key. The proprietor
was called from his slumbers, but he
couldn't appear to locate the key. Then
the clerk remembered a box of mistts,
and after a series of experiments ON
the lock got the door open. As he babe
us good night and wiped his perspiring
brow he said apologetieally' Il hope
you will excuse me for keeping you
waiting 80 long. But you see l tend bar

AT THE PHONE.

There are sounds that seem to soothe us,
There are sounds that seem TO move us,
As the cradle song in opera or the ROSTERS
early crow.
There are times when nothing pleases
And tormenting thoughts will tease us.
Then it does me good to listen to her musical
Hello"
'Tis so nicely regulated
And so sweetly modulated
That / oft would linger longer if / did not
Jealous grow.
For some fellows sure to break in
With a sound that / must take in
While I'm patiently awaiting to hear one more
Hello"
"Wait a moment" says she sweetly,
And she switches him off neatly.
Then Uninterrupted tells me what she knows
want to know,
Yet there are no hOneyed phrases,
For "the chief is keeping cases.
But she manages to call me something more
h mere Hello"
Although I've never seen her,
Curiosity'sno keener
Than when first / heard her voice repeat a call,
distinct and slow,
For in my mind I've photoed her,
And in my heart I've voted her
The l~oveliest and and the brightest girl that
ever said Hello"

TITLES For Women.

Until Oscar Wilde burst upon the
world as the apostle of @stheticism the
family to which he belonged had hardly
been heard of in this country. Since
then occasional paragraphs have ap-
peared in the papers regarding relatives
Of the divine Oscar, and now attention
has been called to his mother, Lady
Wilde, because of a novel movement IN
which she has taken a leading part,
This has for its object the securing from
the crown of honorific distinction foI
women of the same character as those
granted to members of the sterner sex.
Lady Henry Somerset is also a leader III
the movement, and the disinterestedness
of these two ladies in this crusade seems
to need no affirmation when it Is re-
membered that each is already the pos
SCISSOR of a title. The advocates of the
new idea declare that while a man be
made a baronet or a knight because OF a
notable deed done no such honor falls
to the lot of women, and they urge that
titular honors be conferred equally upon
the X When it is pointed out to
them that Miss Burdett-C outts was
made a baroness by way of reward tor
her many public benefaotions, the new
crusaders retort that the case of the bar
oness merely proves the rule.-Ex-

II MASS Of JUPITER.
Indications That Its Surface Matter Is In q
Gaseous State.

Indications Tina Its Surface Matter Is In a
Gaseous State.
Taking the earth's mean distance from
the sun at 90, 796, $50 miles, as given by
Hardness, the mean distance of Jupiter
from the sun will be 482, S03, go miles.
The eccentricity Of its elliptical orbit
being O. O4825, its distance from the sun
at perihelion is 459, 507, 760 miles and
at aphelion 506, 100, 1870 miles. Between
its greatest and least distances, therefore,
there is a difference of 46, 592, 400 miles,
or about one-half the earth's mean dis
lance from the sun. The inclination of
Jupiter's orbit to the plane of the eclip-
tic being only 1 degree IS minutes Al
seconds-or less than that of any of the
other large planets, with the exception
of Uranus-the planet never departs
much from the ecliptic, and hence 1t
was called by the ancients the "ecliptlc
planet. - Its period of revolution round
the sun is II years 314. 8 days.
The inclination of its axis of rotation
being nearly at right angles to the plane
of its orbit, there are practically no sea-
sons in this distant world, and the only
variation in the heat and light at any
point on its surface would be that due
to the comparatively small variation in
its distance from the sun referred to
above. Its mean distance from the sun
being 5. 2029 times the earth's mean
distance from the sun, it follows that
the heat and light received by Jupiter are
81 times (5.2 squared) less than the
earth receives. The amount of heat re-
ceived from the sun by this planet is
very small, and were it constituted like
the earth its surface should be perpetu-
ally covered by frost and snow. Far
from this being the case, the telescope
shows its atmosphere to be in a state OF
constant and wonderful change.
These extraordinary changes cannot
possibly be due to the solar heat, and
they have suggested the idea that the
planet may perhaps be in a redhot
state, a miniature sun, in fact, glowing
with inherent heat. The great brillianoy
of its surface, the "albedo, as 1t Is
called. and its small density-less than
that of the sun-are facts in favor Of
this hypothesis. AS the attraction OF
Jupiter's enormous mass would render
the materials near its center of much
greater density than those near its sur
face. the latter must be considerably
lighter than water and may possibly be
in the gaseous state. -Gentleman's
Magazine.

Life would be simpliied in some of
its aspects if the same thing were al
ways called by the same name. Such is
not the case, however, and perhaps it is
better so. If there were no mysteries
and surprises, the world would be less
interesting.
Colonel Philip Lee was passing
through South Carolina thirty odd years
ago-it was in wartime-when he ac-

answered the question by another:

WHY PEOPLE BLUSH.
Fear Is the True Cause, and Old People
Rarely Do 1t.

Fear Is the True Cause, and Old People
Rarely DO 1t.
Why do people blush? Certain emo
lions cause a kind of syncope. The heart
stops for an instant, and regaining
strength Immediately it acts in a stron-
ger name and sends the blood racing
into the arteries. So much for the phys
Illogical portion of the question, but we
wish to know what causes these emo
tons.
Darwin explained this by saying that
when we perceive or fancy that we are
being criticised or closely observed our
whole attention is forcibly directed e
ourselves and is especially concentrated
! upon our countenance. When a particu-
lar part of the body becomes the object
! of such concentrated attention, its work
ing is greatly modified. We see a good
example of this in the immediate effect
produced upon the saliva by thinking OF
a lemon. Our face reddens on the same
principle. The veins relax and are filled
with arterial blood.
This explanation is not quite satisfao-
tory, and other theories have been put
forward with more or less success. The
latest is that of Mr.. Melinard, which Is
at least original. We blush through
modesty, timidity, bashfulness and con
fusion. Praise makes us blush-that Is
modesty. Now, what takes place within
usP Something very simple. This praise
pleases us, but we do not wish that fact
to be perceived. Take a case of timtd-
ity. A sohoolboy is asked a question
which he cannot answer. He wishes to
hide his ignorance, which may expose
him to punishment or the gibes of his
fellow scholars. He turns red
1t is the same with COMMISSIONS, We
have done something which we wish to
hide, and we are afraid that 1t will be-
come known. In short, the moral state
is Identical In all cases. We redden be-
cause we feel that people are finding out
something which we wish to hide.
nj. Melinard endeavors to demonstrate
the correctness Of his theory by showing
that when the fear of being ''unmasked''
Is removed there Is no blushing. In the
| case of lovers we find at first that they
blush when they meet because thay are

Of course, but the sight Of the stick

BORUCK ON ESTEE IN 1882.

Marcus D. Boruck is one OF the Oldest
newspaper men in the state, and ia q
first-class Judge of Republican politi-
clans. He has been besides leader in
the Republican party for many years,
and his opinion usually has weight with
his party associates. Here is what he
said of Mr.. Estee in 1882 1t is only fair
to Mr.. Boruck to add that he is now
supporting Mr.. Estee:
He is thoroughly unreliable as a poll
tician. He is looked upon az rene
gade; as a thoroughly conscienceless
man as man who has embraced Bell
Ringerism, Dolly Vardenism and Gree
leyism. In speech of his when bat
tling for the Greeley ticket, on the 18th
of August, 1872. he was most bitter in
his denunciation OF the Republican
party, urging people to vote for Greeley
and to defeat Grant. In all OF his
speeches his denunciations were OF the
bitterest and most depraved kind.
Mr.. Boruck is less consistent than the
'colored people are. But all the above
are significant signs of the times. The
Budd breezs has stiffened to gale.
The Budd rivulet has become river.
To all it has beceme apparent that if
Budd lives until the 9th OF Novembe
he will be triumphantly elected, and
this may Iced to more successful repe-
tition OF the narrow gauge railroad Incl
dent by come unprincipled scoundrel,
though it is but fair to admit that any
thing OF the sort would be deprecated
by the great bulk of Republicans.

mentation. The local camp fires are all

witnessed in the last decade.
