Don't Worry.

Worry is curse and n source of
untold evils. It seams the face with
lines and burrows, and has a most de-
pressing effect upon that hyper-sensi-
tive organ, the stomach, which at such
times becomes most unwilling and
laggard servant. Indeed, it is safe to
say that unless encouraged by cheer
full temper and bright, or, at least,
hopeful, thoughts, the stomach will
play truant or sulk and do no work
which it can shirk. The physiological
explanation of this is the close alli-
ance of the great sympathetic nerves,
which are worse than the telegraph
for carrying bad news; the worry and
anxiety which depress the brain pro-
duce simultaneously semi-paralysis
of the nerves of the stomach, gastric
juices will not flow, and--presto
there is Indigestion.
One sign of mental health is Sc
renity of temper and self-control
that enables us to bear with equanim-
ity and unruffied temper the petty
trials and jars of life, especially those
arising from contact with scolding,
irascible, irritating folk. 1t is well to
remember at such times that these
unfortunates are their own worst enc.
mics; and cultivation of the art of
not hearing will help us very much.
1t is very useful art all through life
and well worth some trouble to ac-
quire. Detroit Free Press.

There are now only six Assistant
Paymasters in tho Navy, and none
were appointed earlier than 1892. This
is the lowest grade in the pay corps,
and it carries the relative rank of en-
sign. The Assistant Paymaster re-
mains in that grade from seven to
eleven years, and during the first
three or four years may expect billets
only OH small ships and unimportant
shore duty. There was pretence
fifteen or twenty years ago to appoint
to the pay corps after competitive ex-
animation, but it was abandoned, and
now appointments are obtained by in.
huence of one sort or another. Line
officers who cannot get their sons into
the Naval Academy are sometimes
content to sacrifice their professional
prejudice against the staff and seek for
the young men places in the pay corps.
The average age of men in the lowest
rank of the corps is perhaps some
what greater than that of line officers
Of like rank.

THE MEADOW BROOK.

! turn no mill no lake fill
No white sail flutters on my breast.
1 show no grace Of nalad's face,
Whose soft, warm foot my sands has
pressed.
From one small spring pure draughts l
bring,
And tiptoe through the thirsty land.
Cup-bearer I where brown wrens fly,
And violets hide on either hand.
In untaught song flow along,
Nor seek to utter that deep word
The ocean spoke when first it woke
And all creation paused and heard.
Gods hand hath bound its own true sound
To every string He plays upon.
His listening ear hears, soft and clear,
Tho music OF my whispered tone.
When goldenrod and asters nod
And grasses edge my narrow stream,
When swallows dip and orioles sip
My shining waters slip aud CLEAN.
Some little need In flower or weed
10 me alone in trust is given,
And knoll and tree leave space for me
To mirror forth strip Of heaven.

Seven Hundred Miles Above Your Head.

If it were possible to rise above the
atmosphere which surrounds the
earth, the sun would appear as a
sharply-defned ball of fire, while
everything else would be wrapped in
total darkness. The explanation of
this seeming oddity is this: There
would not nor could not be any sensa-
tion of light conveyed to the brain
through the medium of the eyes with
out an atmosphere or something sim
liar to the suns rays to act upon.
But, on the contrary, if the atmos-
phere of our earth extended to
height of 700 miles, the suns heat and
rays could never penetrate it, and
nothing in the shape of an organized
being would ever have existed upon
this planet. Again, if something
should happen that would suddenly
expand our atmosphere to a height of
600 or 700 miles, we would all freeze
to death while wrapped in darkness
blacker than the blacklist midnight. -

The Baltimore Sun has an editorial
on the use of steam wagons for roads,
which it urges as the next step in
economic transportation. 1t says that
such vehicles, having broad-tired
wheels, have been found to benefit
rather than injure the roads where
they are in use. Those of the latest
type are cheaper in use than wagons
drawn by horses, provided the freight
Offering for carriage is abundant in
amount and steady in supply. Steam
wagons in crowded streets occupy less
space than horse-drawn vehicles. In
army times they are, on this account,
of special value and are about being
used by some European Governments.
The horse, besides taking up space in
the road, must stop ut intervals to eat
and sleep, whereas the stea wagon
can go twenty-four hours day. The
steam wagon, in fact, has every adj
vantage that the locomotive and train
have over the wagon train drawn by
horses, except that of smooth steel
rail and easy grades to run upon.

An IrOnelad Railroad.

A railroad which the Germans have
built in Asia Minol, extending from
Ismid, harbor about sixty miles east
of Constantinople, east by south 800
miles to Angora, has as little wood in
it, perhaps, as any in the world. Not
only the rails and bridges, but the ties
and telegraph poles are of iron, nine
tenths of it furnished by German
works; and chiefly by Krupp. There
re no less than 1900 bridges on the
line, one measuring $50 feet, one 4i5,
and three 327 feet. There are sixteen
tunnels, the longest measuring 1880
feet. This is the only railroad which
penetrates into the interior of Asiatic
Turkey. Railroad Gazette.

The Secretary of the Navy has just
approved report made by Board of
Officers recommending complete
change in the uniforms worn by the
navy. Fortunately for the officers,
however, the changes are not such as
will entail much additional expense
in the purchase of new clothing, and
are to be made gradually, so that they
will not be compelled to purchase
complete outfits at once. The present
navy uniform is regarded as one of the
handsomest in the world, but the
changes which are now ordered are
said to be demanded by convenience
and comfort. The present heavy over
coat will lose the belt around the waist,
and the hood at the back is to be fixed
so that it can be detached and need be
worn only in extremely cold weather,
The present white helmet for hot
climates is to be abolished aud II white
cover, used over the regular service
cap, is to take its place Two years
from now the special full dress is to
suffer many alterations, which, it is
believed, viii improve it, and other
changes that individually are of no
great consequence are to be made
from time to time, which collectively
will make considerable difference in
the outfit OF an officer,
