"Anno Domini" q Good Woman.

A bright young American girl spent
last summer with her parents in Eng
land. Her father was much interested
in charitable work, and visited many
institutions for the poor and aged on
the trip. Most of these buildings, par
ticularly in the provinces, have a
square piece of marble inserted IN the
bricks over the front entrance, giving
the year of its building.
The little girl read many of these,
and one day said: Papa, thing Ammo
Domipi must have been an awfullv
good woman to have built all these
houses for the poor. N Y. Herald.

Street Car Transfers in Baltimore.

railroads Of Baltimore has grown since
It's introduction in 1882, and free trans
fers are now issued at some forty differ
ent points; in some cases 1t is possible
to rlde twenty milss for q single fare.
AS a rule, In any city transfers are con-
fined to different lines Of one company;
but at a crossing Of the Lake Roland
ElevGfed and Central roads free trans-
fers are given from one to the other.
A station is LOCATED at the junction am
an agent provides the transferring pas
se1gers with a ticket. At the end OF
eacS auarter officials Of the two com
ponies meet, exchange coupons and di-
vide equally the residue Of fares coli
lected'by one company over the other;
1t is a very simple arrangement. ana
has resulted IN greatly increasing the
traffic of both roads.

Predicament In Which the Church Goer
Found Himself.

Predicament In Which the Church 6oer
Found himself.
Anybody seeing the major coming
down the middle aisle of Sunday
morning, with his erect form, his
semi-military frock coat tightly but.
toned, his rubicund countenance
actually emitting rays OF red light,
would never have imagined him to
have passed the meridian of life moro
than twenty years ago, and people
said, ''he is well preserved. 4-t.
But the secret of the majors foun-
tain of youth was his hair 1t was
not his own, but i was So black and
glossy, SO well curled, and looked so
virile, that the major thought nobody
ever imagined it was wig.
So, as he sat in his pew on this par
ticplar Sunday morning. the sum
lights turning his shining locks yell
low and green and purple as it struck
through the colored wjjInsa :.29 he was
supreme in the tranquility of his
youthful appearance and his decep-
tive hair: One by one the elders
filed down the aisle and t222k up thgs
little collection boxes With their
long handles. OF course every one
has seen these little arrangements
and how they are lifted from pew to
pew over the heads of the occupants.
As the pass was made in the case
of the major, the manipulation miscal.
culated his distance, and, catching 1t
in the majors hair, passed it ON to the
next seat, with the majors wig
hanging to 1t.
CONSERVATION seized the major, and
his sang froid completely deserted
him, and suppressed giggle only
made matters worse.
Hastily arising, he made grab for
his finishing tresses and with spas
r jerk he clapped it on his bald
pate, but the wrong end foremost.
This was the last straw, and catching
up his hat he left, with more haste
than grace.

The design is first engraved on
printing plate of rubber, positively

which it will be afterward seen. and
the plate is coated then with varnish
color and pressed upon glass plate;
the latter is strewed with bronze
powder, sheet aluminium, or other
suitable material, the portions form

and being, therefore transpar-

plate is placed in a frame having a
backing of strong paper board, on
the front of which is mounted bril-

provided with prominent squares in
suitable positions. The design is
thus shown by brilliant reflected
light through the transparent part Of

The gARTa IS RUNNING SLOW.

But the Scientists Need Not Alarm One
Seriously Yet.
Lord Kelvin estimates that the run
ming Slow of the earth in its daily 70.
tation round its axis amounts to % Sec
onds per century.
The main cause of this retardation is
the friction caused by the tides, which
ACT as brake, the action of which has
been calculated by this eminent physi-
cist to be equal to weight of 4. 600, 00o
tons applied ON the equator.
Other causes have also to be taken in
to account-as, for example, the increase
in the size of the earth, due to the fall
ing ON it of meteoric dust, which, if de-
posted at the rate of one foot in 4, 600
years, would produce the observed re-
tardation by itself
Such phenomenon as the annual
growth and melting of snow and ice at
the poles is introducing irregularities
into the problem, the growth at the
poles, by abstracting water from the
other parts of the ocean, accelerating
the earth S motion, and the melting, by
restoring the water. retarding it.
Against the retarding forces there has
to be taken into account a probable ac-
celeration, due to the gradual sinking
of the earth by cooling, but this Lord
Kelvin believes to be very small-per-
haps not more than one -thousandth
part OF the retardation due to tidal fric-
ton
Professor Newcomb has declared from
astronomical considerations that the
earth went slow and lost seven seconds
between 1850 and 1862, and then went
fast and gained eight seconds between
1862 and 1872, changes of rate explica.
