MOVING TO CITIES.
The Migration of Populatio on to Great Gen.
ters and Its Danger.

The Migration of Population to Great Gen.
ters and Its Danger.
The closing decades Of this century are
witnessing no more remarkable phenome-
non than that shown in tho migration Of
population, not so much from country to
country, as from place to place in the
same country, writes Henry j. Fletcher
in The Forum. This interior migration
is most noticeable i'll the most progressive
lands. 1t is etreCting a rapid transforms
ton in Germany, England, in Australasia,
under widely different conditions, but no.
where is it's operation more general than
in the United States. In Australia, for
example, the rural districts prosper and
q few great cities grow enormously, while
all the intermediate communities arc rel
ativcly stagnant, but in the United States
the drift is Enthusiastically from the farms
to the nearest village, from the village to
the town and from the town to the city.
Out of total of 500 townships in New
York PA gained numerically between 1880
and 1890, while 635, or more than two
thirds, became less populous.
This transportation has most farreach-
ing effects. Politically it transfers pro
ponderance of power to the great cties,'
changing the results of important elections
and increasing the urgency Of municipal

The Test of Hardness.

A good many people appear to think
that resistance to blow is test of hard
ness in minerals, whereas it is resistance
to erosion. Ignorance of this fact led
man, not long ago, to experiment on what
appeared to be large and unusually clear
garnet Of rather light red color. He took
u hammer to it and smashed it to atoms.
A diamond is the hardest substance in the
world, yet it may be broken by tap from
hammer or even fall on the sidewalk.
as it is apt to split along ANY of the cleav-
age lines, which are parallel to its faces.
Experts test an undetermined gem first
with file and after with fragment of stone
of differing hardness. If it yields to the file,
it is glass or something no more durable
than that.-Jewelers' Review.

MILK.
The Testimony of Physician Who Be

The Testimony of Physician Who Be
lieves In Its Nourishing Powers.
A medical man expresses the belief that
person could live for any length Of time
and take heavy exercise all the while on
no other food than sweet milk His con-
viction is the result of personal expert
ment He wanted to establish the fact
that persons convalescing from sickness
may grow stronger with no other nutri-
ment than sweet milk and not that they are
Obliged to take something solid' to eat
as so many people imagine. He holds
that many convalescent has gone into
his grave as result of overtaxing his
weak stomach by putting solid" food in
to it, and he maintains that the old belief
as to bread being the first essential of hui
man life is shown by his experiments to
be erroneous.
His test was to live 80 days with only
sweet milk as II nOurishmeDt. In the
whole time he lost ia pounL u n weight,
but no strength. He even attributes the
loss of weight to the warmth of the wealth
er and to excessive exercise on the bicycle
and the daily manipulation of Is pound
dumbbells and other heavy weights.
took more exercise than usual in order to
test the thing fairly. On the seventh day
of tho experiment he ran several foot races
with slzillful runner and was beaten in
each race.
On the thirtieth day he again pittcd
himself against the sane runner and did
the best of the racing, which certainly
would tend to confirm his statement that
he lost no strength during the 30 days
test. He drank four pints of milk daily
for the last week. He thinks a healthy
person should take about five pints of milk
daily when no other food is being taken.
His practice was to drink milk at intervals
of two hours during the day, commencing
at o'clock in the morning and continuing
until 10 at night. After that he would
take no more until next morning.-Phila-
delphia Press.

produce it after you know how. The food
eaten is all property food" and is made
of tissue paper that the actor chews up in
to little bits and takes out of his mouth
whenever occasion offers. His clothes are
all of rubber and made to flt alright

down he puts the heel of one boot over a
little trap in the stage. An assistant i'm

without Morals.

The Rev. George r. Dodson, the popu-
lar Unitarian minister of Alameda, tells u
rather good story at his own expense
While spending a summer vacation at
Skagg's Springs one Of his greatest friends
was u little girl about years old The
two were constant companions, and the
child daily accompanied the clergyman on
his excursions in the neighborhOod. One
evening the little girl remarked to her fell
low diners
81 like going out with Mr. Dodson."
"Why" quericd stranger, hoping to
draw the child out.
because he has no morals" was the
startling reply.
When the summer boardcrs had recover
ed their cquanimity. they instituted an in
yestigation, tine upshot of which was the
discovery that the curly haired maiden
possessed an Unsuitable craving for stories.
This desire was frequently gratificd by Mr..
Dodson; but, unlike the anecdotes in her
books, the minister's tales were never
pointed with an obtrusive moral.-San
Francisco News Letter.

Structnre Of Mountains.

In his contribution to the discussion by
scientific authorities on the structure ~
mountains, Professor Niles states that in
the Appalachian range the beds of rock
which have there been deposited are some
40, GOO feet in thickness, while some dis
tance away from the mountains, on the
plain, the same formations reach only
about 400 feet, the same principle of for
nation being also known to exist in the
case of foreign mountains and accepted
as fact thoroughly proved. 1t is like
wise shown that the material which forms
the mountain beds is exceedingly coarse,
demonstrating that the deposits were made
near he shores Of continents, where the
continental rivers, laden with earth ma
terial, had their velocity checked by the
oceans and dropped first the larger and
heavier material, fact made evident to-
day by an examination Of any of the great
mountain systems of the world, which
skirt the shores.
Briefly, it is argued that tho causes Of
mountains may be considered to be- first,
the deposit of very thick beds Of coarse
materials along the continental shores, the
bottoms Of tho seas Gubsiding all the time,
also the subsequent lateral pressure which
formed the folds and, finally the complex
action Of heat, water and pressure which
determined the lines Of folds. Then, as to
the cause of lateral pressure, 1t is thought
that no theory is better substantiated than
that of contraction Of the earth through
the loss of heat and the loss of matter, lava
and more particularly steam, which is
transformed in enormous. quantities from
the interior to the surface Of the earth.

Getting Fat In Five Minutes.

One of the most amusing and astonish-
ing Of pantomime tricks ever originated
was that of fat man. This was done by
the Ravels. One of the actors in the pan
tomime sits at table and ravenously cats
dish after dish of food that servant brings
to him. Presently the man, who, like
most ravenous eaters, was rather thin and
soraggy, begins to grow plump. His
clothes fit him exactly. His waistcoat
steadily swells out under the very eyes Of
the audience All the while he is eating
like n sausage machine. In few minutes
he has grown to be giant, or feet
tall, and with the proportions of an inflat-
ed balloon.
The sight always brings forth roars of
laughter. 1t is paratively easy to
