One of the most remarkable things
about the heart is the amount of work
it does. Considering the organ as a
pump whose task e = deliver known
quantity of blood against known
head, " it is easy to show that in "a
hours mans heart does about 1874 foot
tons OF work. In other words, . says q
contemporary, IF the whole force ex-
pended by the heart in "a hours were
gathered into one huge stroke, such q
power would lift l24 tons one foot from
the ground. A similar calculation has
been made respecting the amount OF
work expended by the muscles involved
IN breathing. In "a hours these muscles
do about 81. foot tons Of work"

And this region, so favored by ma

or than the seacoast, the western part
of the state was in its beginnings made
up of more varied elements than the
eastern. From the valley of the Connect
icut colonists pushed through the noun
tain gaps into that of the Housatonic
the hills attracted settlers from the fiat
and sandy lands of Cape Cod, while the
Dutch from New York have left in
name and character their impress upon
the Berkshire people Of today. Spiritual
and intellectual forces were largely
prominent in the laying of it's founda-
tions, and such forces have contributed
and continued their influences ever
since.
Missionary zeal, represented by such
names as Eliot and Sergeant, founded
Stockbridge. Jonathan Edwards here
spent the years which represented the
prime and fullness of his powers

stamp upon a whole generation
throughout it's history soldiers, saints
and scholars have both represented and
impressed its life. The reasonings Of
Jonathan Edwards, which for good and
evil have had SO great an influence up
ON theological thought, found their most
powerful expression in his treatise on
the will, which was written while he
lived in Stockbridge. Lenox heard the
last public utterances of Charming; his
successor, Orville Dewey, born 100 years
ago (1794) at Sheffield, long made that
place his home, and there, too, were
born the two Barnards, one the presi-
dent of Columbia college. the other the
soldier scholar of our civil war. Oliver
Wendell Holmes lived for years at
Pittsfield. Catharine Maria Sedgwick
drew around her at Stockbridge and
Lenox a distinguished circle of the best
literary society of our own country and
many cultivated wanderers from the old
world. Fanny Kemble here made for
years her home. Longfellow, Lowell,
Hawthorne, Herman Melville, Beecher,
G. P. R. James, George William Cur

ing have found noble expression in the

Rebuked by Hannibal Hamlin.

Mr.. Hamlin was true gentleman.
Punctilious himself in the observance of
all the requirements of gentlemanly in
tercourse, he was equally exacting of
every courtesy due him from others. He
permitted no man to be rude to him or
to assume the attitude of a superior. On
one occasion one of the able men and
leaders of the senate, distinguished for
aself conscious, lordly air in his deport-
ment, in the change OF seats which oc-
ours once in two years in the senate
chamber had gained a seat by the side
of Mr.. Hamlin and began at once to
practice upon him those little exactions
and annoyances which he had been ac-
customed to impose upon others. After
few days Of yielding to these encroach-
ments Mr.. Hamlin turned and in tone
that did not require repetition, said,
"Sir, if you expect to be treated like a
gentleman, you must prove yourself
one " There was never occasion after
ward to repeat the admonition. Henry

sARpINE FISHING.
The Process From the Time of the Catch
to the Canning and Cooking.

The Process From the Time of the Catch
to the Canning and Cooking.
Toward the end of April the sardine
fishermen along the coast of Brittany
begin to watch for the bubbling of the
sardines on the surface Of the sea- For
they know that vast shoals of the little
fish are on their way from the coast of
Africa up through the bay of Biscay to
the north, and that they must be caught,
if at all, as they pass. When any one
sees the water agitated, word spreads
rapidly and the boats put out from the
shore and race to the shoal
When the net is extended, the water
is "baited' by throwing balls of
rogue" into it. As the bait dissolves
and sinks the sardines rise and remain
long after to nibble it, and their doom
is sealed For this reason rogue" is a
most important part of the sardine fish
erman's outfit. It is made Of the eggs of
mackerel and Goldfish mixed with clay,
and is rather expensive, costing from %
shillings to 20 shillings barrel
Within the curing factories or can
neries everything is hustle and confu-
sion, for there must not be moments
delay in cleaning the fish. All night
long the work is carried on by the light
of blazing oil wicks. The sardines are
spread out on benches or tables, where
salt is busted over them. Then the
women go along and snip off the heads
with great scissors.
The little fat boxes so we'll known
to commerce are taken one by one and
filed from the glistening pile of fish,
after which pure olive oil from the
province of Bari, in Italy, is poured
over them and the tops soldered on.
In the meantime great caldron of
hot water has been raised to the boiling
point ready for the real operation of
cooking the fish. The sealed boxes are
thrown into it and left for two or three
hours. If any oil appears on the top of
the water, the master workman knows
that some can has not been properly
soldered, and the loss is charged up to
the man who did the work. A good
workman will not lose more than two
or three boxes in 100. New York Ret

more remarkable for independence of
character than attention to his duties.
On n occasion two of the directors
We're travelling over the line and noticed
that the name Of this station was not

GUS as it was a junction. This was made
the subject of complaint, and old Char
ley, who was the delinquent, was
promptly brought to book and repri-
manded.
He was very wroth that any one
should find fault with him and thirsted
for revenge. So, keeping a lookout un-
til he saw the directors on their return
journey, he stood opposite their carriage
and shouted in a stentorian voice:

A Curious Fact.

The Popular Science News calls atten-
ton to a most remarkable account of the
position Of certain planets as located in
"Gulliver's Travels" This book, writ
ten somewhere about 1885, contains the
following words: 'They spend the
greater part Of their lives in observing
the celestial bodies, which they do by
the assistance Of glasses far excelling
ours in goodness. They have likewise
discovered two lesser stars, or satellites,
which revolve about Mars, whereof the
innermost is distant from the center Of
the primary planet exactly three Of his
diameters and the outermost five. The
former revolves in the space Of 10 hours,
and the latter in 21H, so that the
squares of their periodical times are very
near in the same proportion with the
cubes Of their distance from the center
Of Mars"
One hundred and fifty years before it
was known that Mars had q satellite,
when the theory that it had one would
have been met with ridicule, or at least
disbelief, the author Of this remarkable
book described the exact number Of satel-
ites that Mars possessed, told their loca-
ton and unusual speed; also q peculiar
ity in the relation Of the speed to the
central orb, a popularity based upon no
principles with which astronomers are
familiar. A careful study Ct the state
ments made by many writer's of marked
ability will almost inevitably lead us to
the conclusion that certain imaginative
minds have the gift Of prophecy, or, at
all events, there may be flashes Of divi-
nation possibly unsupported by the writ
ers themselves.

Captain Trevitt W. Okey Of Los An

rainbow has ever been a deified animal,
having the attributes Of a human being
and also the body and some of the func-
tions of a measuring worm. Obviously
the striped back and arched attitude of
the measuring worm, its sudden appear
nnce and disappearance among the leaves
Of the plants which it inhabits, are the
analogies upon which this p~ersonifica-
ton is based. AS the measuring worm
consumes the heritage Of the plants and
causes them to dry up, so the rainbow,
which appears only after the rain, is
supposed by the simple minded Indian
to cause a cessation Of rain, and conse
quently to be the originator of droughts,

rainbow gets it's function as a god. OF
this the cessation of the rain on the APP
pearance' OF the rainbow is adduced as
proof. The fading of the flowers is at
tributed to the rainbow, which, consum-
ing their imperceptible existences, thus
derives his brilliant coloring, just as it
is believed that the measuring worm
