IN SIXTY YEARS.

I am indebted to q thoughtful old
descendant of the Spanish nobility for
some interesting figures concerning
the life we lead. He has spent the lasu
ten years in studying the subject, and
these are his conclusions: Sixty years
of life are 525, 800 hours. The first five
years We have no knowledge Of exist
ence. therefore the time must be de-
ducted-43.S 500 hours. In tifty-fiye
years we sleep 14O,525 hours. an aver
age of seven hours a day, including the
time we sleep when i'll. What he calls
the punishment of school robs us OF
2190 hours, or two hours day from
the age of seven to twelve. He prob
ably considers these six years as time
wasted. Our severe illnesses are es-
timated at one hour a day-2O,O75
hours. Our unhappiness and moral
sufferings deprive us of two hours a
day-40,150 hours. These little trities
subracted from the grand total of life
leave 27S,S60 hours. or thirty-two years
three months and one day, more or
less. as the time a man of sixty years
actually lives. The person who dies
at thirty lives only fourteen or fifteen
years: the one who dies at twenty lives
only eight or nine years.-New York

MEXICAN WAR HERO.

William Deemer, a hero Of the Mex

a scanty living by washing windows
and polishing doOrknobs in South
Bethlehem, Pa. 1t was at Chapulte-
pee. Over $4,000 Americans were
quartered in and about a large build
ing. Walking through the woods one
day Deemer discovered a heavy fuse
charged with powder. He cut a sec
Eon yard long out Of it to prevent its
carrying fire, and then quietly follow
ed up the line. Presently he discOv-
cred up in a high tree the red of a
Mexican uniform. The foreign SOL
der saw Deemer at the same time, but
the latter drew a bead quickly and
fired. The Mexican came tumbling
down from the tree a corpse. The far
Their end of the fuse was at the bot
tom of the tree upon which the Mex
lean sat. Then Deemer followed the
fuse back toward the American camp.
1t led to the cellar of the building,
where the Mexicans had imbedded 30
600 pounds Of powder, TO which the
fuse was attached. He at once inform
ed his captain, and the same day Cen
eral Winfield Scott sent for Deemer,
thanked him personally, gave him 80
days furlough, $65 in gold, and fur
nished a body guard of ten men, who
accompanied Deemer upon a visit to
the City of Mexico. The hero is now
seventy-three years old, and gets a

!" THE RUNNING MATE" OF THE
BOSTON SPRING POEM.

Now disappears the hacking cough,
That so distressing sounds,
The porous plaster is pulled off
And cheerfulness abounds.
And now our happiness to crown
And set our hearts aglow,
The price of coal is coming down
And eggs are selling low.
The cold that he had has passed away,
And he doesn't at all deplore II,
But he keeps up the custom still each day
OF taking rye whisky for it.
The smiling spring the field and mead in
vades.
The smell of opening flowers regalos the
senses,
The amorous tom cats MARBLE serenades
Throughout the night upon the back
yard fences.
The wild flowers deck the mountain side.
And spring 10 life the grass and clover,
To-day we reach the Easter-tide,
Again the Lenten fast is over.
The pious man once more may throw
At signing SWANS Irritation glanoes,
And 10 the wicked playhouse go
And exc to parties and to dances.
Off, off to-day the sackcloth goes,
Her handsome Easter suit revealing.
Now she'll break hearts with fetching
clothes
And boomers gay designed for wheeling.
