Management.


Nobody likes being managed. The
secret of management is not known to
all, but those who have learned it from
the good fairies who preside over do
nestle tranquility have attained brevet
rank among the fortunate of the world.

A Chinese Lottery Den.

Entering Chinese lottery den, one
sees on the walls a large representation,
of lottery ticket beautifully engrossed.
and also large slips of paper, each silly
containing one of the so lottery charac'
ters. When the drawing is to take
place, these slips are taken down, rolled
into pellets SO as to conceal the writing
and then thrown into pan. They are
there we'll mixed up and again taken
out and placed in four wooden bowls
marked 1, 9, 5, 4, 90 of these charac
ters being distributed equally among
the four bowls
One of these four bowls contains the
winning characters of the drawing.
Which is it to be? Again four pieces
of paper, each printed with number,
l, 2, 3 or 4, corresponding with the
numbers marked on the bowl, are rolled
up, thrown into box and shaken. A
disinterested person, sometimes a little
child, is called in to draw out one of
these numbers For this service he re-
ceives 5 cents for good luck. The paper
bearing the given number is straight
ened out, the number read and the
bowl selected which corresponds with
the number. This, of course, cantains
the winning 90 characters, and all the
other go characters in the three other
bowls are destroyed. The bowl chosen
is taken up, and one by one the charac-
tiers are unfolded. An assistant is sta
toned near the large lottery ticket hang
ing up, and as each sharacter in the
bowl is read off the corresponding char
acter on the wall is marked. AS soon
as the 90 lucky characters are called
out they are pasted on piece of paper
and hung up where every one can see
the drawing FOR that day. SAP Fran

The Golden Rule In the Boxing Ring.

The high moral value of boxing as an
exercise and of the boxing code to which
every boxer must submit is due to the
fact that they compel men to be just, to
accept equality, to respect the rights of
others, to be fair to their opponents on
their feet and magnanimcus to them
when they are down.
They take the golden rule down into
the gymnasiums of every first class col
lege and school and say to the youth of
today, who is to be the citizen of to-
morrow, ''Put on the gloves, young
man, and learn that you positively shall
not, in the boxing ring at least, do any
thing INTO others which they shall not
do unto yon.
Quite apart, therefore, from its phys
ical benefits, which are greater than
those of any other form of athletics,
quite apart, too, from its utility in mo-
ments of personal peril, which is too
obvious to need pointing out, ] rejoice
at the undoubted growth of boxing in
the general favor as distinct and val
liable moral advance. It is already
taught in nearly all our leading colleges
and private schools. hope to live to
see it taught in all our public high
schools, and this more as means of
moral discipline than of physical i'm
provement. t.-Donahoe' Magazine.

The fact is well known that mix
ture of tungsten with steel imparts to
the latter so great degree of hardness
that it readily scratches glass ane
quartz. Recent Investigations have
thrown light upon this somewhat re-
markable phenomenon-that is, def.
initely crystallized compound of iron
and tungsten is announced as having
lately been discovered, the crystals be-
ing so hard as to be capable of scratch
ing topaz. Tungsten is a brittle white
metal, almost as heavy as gold, and the
crystals formed by its combination with
iron, in the proportion of one atom of
iron to two of tungsten, are silver gray
and very brilliant. The conclusion ar
rived at by experts in this line is that,
on tungsten being alloyed with steel,
some of the compound just described is
formed in the mass, thereby producing
the remarkable increase in the hardness
of steel and adding to its usefulness
