Why Eve had no Help.

A lady furnishes some Of the rea-
sons why Eve did not keep hired
girl: "There has been much said
about the faults of women and why
they need SO much waiting on. Some
one IA man, of course) has the pre-
sumption to ask: why, when Eve
was manufactured Of a spares rib, a
servant was not made at the same time
to wait upon her ? She didn't need
any. Adam never came whining to
Eve with ragged stocking to be
darned, buttons to be sewed on, gloves
to be mended right away-quick now !
because he never read the papers until
the sun went down behind the palm
trees, and stretching himself yawned
out: "Isn't supper ready, my dear p
Not he. He made the fire and hung
the kettle over it himself, we'll ven
ture, and pulled the radishes peeled
the potatoes and did everythinh else
he ought to do. He milked the COWS,
fed the chickens, and looked after the
pigs himself and never brought half a
dozen friends home to dinner when
Eve hadn't any fresh pomgranetes.
He never stayed out until IL o'clock
at night, and then scolded because
poor Eve was sitting up crying inside
the gate. He never loafed around
corner groceries while Eve was rock
ing little Gains cradle at home. He
did not call Eve up from the cellar to
get his slippers and find them in
corner where he had left them. Not
he. When he took them off he put
them under fig tree beside his Sun
day boots. In short, he did not think
she was especially created for the pur-
pose of waiting on him, and he wasn't t
under the impression that it disgraced
man to tighten his wife's cares a
little. That's the reason Eve didn t
need hired girl, and without it her
defendants did

= According to the Norfolk Virgin
ian, girl residirgin Lake Michigan
town has recovered $500 damages from
a steamboat company for naming a
boat after her without asking her per-
mission. An exchange says she took
offense at marine item that, "Kittie
Marshall, having been thoroughly
scrubbed, painted, reftted with cano-
pied stern and new boilers, will here
after serve as mail carrier, and poke
her pretty nose in the lake business
for all she's worth"
= 1t is still true, even in these days
Of great fortunes undreamed Of when
it was founded, that the American
presidency may be aspired to by men
who are not rich. Our wealthiest
presidents have been the first and last
elected-Washington and Cleveland.
Washington was the wealthiest man
in the country at his time. Adams
was worth 100000 at his death.
Jefferson was Gland poor and in
straits. Madison and Monroe had
comfortable estates in those days.

Around the World on Nothing.

"Paul JONES'" the Boston clubman
who has contracted to start on nothing
and circumnavigate the globe, bring
ing back IS, 900 with him, will start
from the Boston Press Club between
now and February %.
The World correspondent was in
formed tonight by an officer Of the
Press Club, who is also member of
the Athletic Club, that the wager was
made in good faith.
On the day of the start he will
strip at the Press Club, and a COM
mittee, of which Gen. Taylor Of the
Globe, will be member, will appraise
his clothes. He will then set about
earning money to buy them back. He
will black boots, brush clothes, do
anything in fact, and accept what is
given him. If any one offers to treat
he will accept and sell his drink to
someone else. When he gets his
clothes he will 60 on the streets and
earn money in any legitimate way
he can to go on to New York, whence
he will sail for England. He has al
ready made contract with an Allan
tic liner to take him over for his SER
vices as dishwasher.
The World correspondent has met
Mr.. Jones. he is a cultivated gen.
tleman of means. His money will be
locked up in safe-deposit vault here
and the keys left behind. The wa
ger grew out of Mr.. Jones theory that
any man can get rich in short time
if he will only Swallow his pride.
This he proposes to do for year,
though he is sensitive man. He ex-
poets to resume his former habits of
life after returning.-Neao York

"A horse can not breathe through its
mouth like dog and other animals. 1t
can only breathe through its nose. The
soft palate forms complete partition be-
tween the mouth and throat, and can
only be elevated, or allow the passage OF
food or water backwards, by compression
such as that which occurs in swallowing.
The passage of air through the mouth is
entirely prevented by the soft palate. B3y
plugging horses nose it may be readi-
" sutfocated. 1t is because breathing
can only be performed through the nasal
organs that spacious, open nostrils are
considered not only beautiful, but ne
cessarv, for they allow at times OF unus-
uaI exertion for the free passage OF large
volumes of air into the oYertasked lungs
during respiration.

Instinct Of Self Preservation.

never realized the strength of
the instinct of self-preservation in
man, says John F. Thompson, in the
St. Louis GloJe-Democrat, until |
witnessed a test of it on steamboat.
Among the passengers was a man who
had black rattlesnakc in a box with
