Dropping Their CPS.

The best bred men in England have
the habit of habitually dropping their
"g's'' in words ending in ''ing, " such
as going, running, walking, etc.
Some of the younger generation of
America are Mortified when they hear
this thing done by older people and set
it down as a mark Of ignorance.
Those of them who have heard the
eminent Dean Hole of England in his
lectures are now surprised to find that
he invariably drops his ''g's, p" and they
are looking up his authority for it. His
authority is simply common usage
among the university bred men of Eng
land.
It would always be done by dean of
Christchurch or a master of Trinity,
who must be pretty we'll educated, bet
ter educated even than young American
girls that guard their "g's' and frown
on the old folk for dropping them.
Now that Dean Hole is on record here
as a dropper of ''g's" perhaps these or
thppic champions will forgive native
vulgarians the same habit. Town Top

CONDOR A DISAPPOINTMENT.
Visitors Expect to See Bird That Rivals
In Size the Tabled Roc.

y
In Size the Tabled Roc.
If the visitor to the geological gardens
will make his way to the vultures
aviary, he will find conder of the An
DIES.
When he sees the great somber plum
aged bird sitting on the tree stump in the
middle of not too roomy cage, his first
feeling will probably be one of disap-
pointment. Some of this disappointment
must be put down to the highly exag-
gerated accounts of early writers. The
measurement of IS feet has been given
as the wing spread Of bird actually
killed and tapped. Darwin shot one in
1884 with wing spread of feet &
inches, and it measured 4 feet from
beak to tail. The measurements of one
that fell to Humboldt's gun tally pretty
closely with those of the bird that Oar
win killed.
Part of the disappointment is no doubt
due to the surroundings. One has form
ed vivid mental pictures of the bird
sailing at great height without an ef-
fort, soaring in graceful circles, or Gid
ing down like lightning upon it's prey.
One sees it sitting with its head drawn
down between its wings, and its plum
age draggled, without sufficient space
over which to run to gather momentum
for a rise, or height enough to fly if it
could leave the ground. Sometimes,
from the top Of its perch, it attempts to
use it's wings, but its efforts result in
failure.
It was long supposed that condors
hunted by scent, but experiments have
proved that the sense Of smell in these
birds is by no means keen. They proba-
bly, discover their food by sight and the
descent of one bird serves as a signal to
others at a distance.
A young condor is much prettier OBJ
iect than an old one. 1t is clothed en-
tirely in white down, and when it set
ties itself to sleep, with its feet hidden
and it's head tucked away, it looks like
fluffy white ball.
The plumage Of the adult is black,
with q white ruff round the neck, and
the quilts have white edging, which
becomes broader at each successive
mott. -London Sketch.

WHAT Is GRAVITATION?
Some Examples That Seem to Answer the
Weighty Question.

some Examples That Seem to Answer the
Weighty Question.
Two men at antipodes on the earth's
surface are drawn directly toward each
other. Each is at the apex of cone of
the other. These cones interlock at the
earth's center and are there equal, but
the greater part of the mass of each
cone and consequently the greater mass
OF gravity holding each TO his place is
past the center of the earth and culmi-
mates at the feet Of the other.
Every point of the earth's surface
pulls in straight line through the
center Of the earth, not stopping at it;
losing part of the pound in proportion
as it approaches the center; then, pass
ing, regaining it again in proportion as
it approaches the opposite surface. So
that half way past the center the pound
which at the center was nothing has
now become a half pound, and at the
.antipodal surface pound again.
Make the center of the earth the COM
mon apex of an indefinite number of
cones radiating to the surface. Accord
ing to mass, gravity pulls from the CEN
ter, and the center is again the'pGint Of
saugation.
If gravity is an active essence pro-
aduced by molecular motion, if being a
living essence, it is therefore perish
able one, it follows that in conglom-
crate mass, as the earth, some substances
will probably exhaust sooner than 9th
sers by reason of expiration of molecular
activity, if that be its producer, or from
other or any cause. Being an active ex-
pending force, it must have producer,
and that producer must have supplies of
force producing matter. These supplies,
however great, must exhaust. Differ
ent qualities of matter may contain this
force producing quality in differing de-
grees and qualities. If so, the minor
will sooner exhaust A feather, leaden
ball and dry stick will fall through
space to our atmosphere with equal
speed because their atoms and the atoms
of the earth mutually attract each 9th
er regardless of shape or size. Gravity
is atomic, and every atom Is the equal
of every other atom, no matter how
diffuse or how concrete the mass of the
object of which they are parts. But
the dry stick may have lost its active
principle-gravity. Its essence produc-
ing principles may have been exhausted.
Nevertheless it would be grasped by the
overwhelming gravity of the earth and
brought down in company with its fell
lows.
Gravity pulls laterally as we'll as per-
pendicularly. The weight of the earth
has been calculated from the pull of a
mountain on a plumb line.
A person standing in narrow can
yon, with walls towering hundreds or
thousands of feet above him on either
side, has much better footing than if
on the pinnacle Of a monument. In one
case he is held up by lateral gravity
In the other he is without support R.

In through the window steals the silent spien'
dor ~
OF fading twilight. Like a blessing there
1t fingers with a touch SO soft and tender
Upon an old mans flowing silver hair.
The pews are vacant, but for shadows fitting
With silent tread along the marrow aisle,
And like dim spirit forms within them sitting,
Or bowinp in devotion there the while.
Beside the organ sits the old man, playing
A tune so sad that sorrow seems the theme.
His fingers DER the yellow keys are straying,
AS though he played it all within dream.
Els tear dim eyes see not with mortal vision,
The music bears his spirit far away
Into splendor land of life elysian,
Where peace and pleasure crown an endless
day.

ger in that young mans mind while he
is-vell, somewhere else, about his
business maybe, and perhaps searching
for some pleasure that, offers greater en-
Elements than a cup Of tea. But the
wise virgin Of the nineteenth century
does not let her lamp 60 out, nor does
she 20 to sleep by the wayside. She
keeps the tea urn simmering beside
bright open fire, and she wears such q
pretty gown. BY and blythe young man
arises and goes back to the pretty girl in
her soft gown, her floating ribbons, her
flmv laces, and he looks at her through
the vapor from his teacup and thinks
how resfful and homelike it all is and
how nice it would be to have her pour
out tea for him every day-and we will
leave the rest to the reader and tell OF
some of the gowns whose beauty has
brought the tagging bridegroom to his
senses.
One was made Of deep red crepon,
with heavy crinkles. The 'front.' was laid
in one wide box plat, falling from the
bust to the feet The back was Ell prin-
scesse and very full and in a demitrain.
The large puffed sleeves reached only to
the elbows and were there4inished with
upright cuffs, made of vandyked accor-
dion plated pink silk muslin. There
was deep pelerine collar, made of the
muslin, plated and bordered with red
velvet ribbon, two rows of .iS, and very
narrow. The plump arms were left bare,
and the whole gown formed a point OF
! brightness and cheer. No'wOnder the
trousseau is in course of preparation.
Another gown for a young lady, while
not quite so andacious as the other, has
proved equally effective. Itwas of blue
and lemon colored crepon, tive toned in
It's weave. The skirt was ample, but
plain; the waist plain Spencer, with
Ribbon belt of maize grosgrain, with
4 line of dark blue down each edge.
Iher6 was lace figaro back. In front
4 thereW was cascade of lace to the knees,
and On each side of that hung a loop and
END OF the ribbon, little lower thanthe
lace. IEe stock was of maize crepe llsse
lQiled On. The sleeves were balloon puffs
Oh the orepon, with two long loops on
eacn shoulder, with the ends caught III
with the lower part of the puff. The
whole arrangement was highly novel
ana very stylish while still being

There was another dainty tea gown,
1lade OF white cashmere, with swans
1o"n cuffs and collar, and a line of
swans down two inches wide down

uAocaded panel. Still another was of

Mustache Versus Music.

Anton Rubinstein is quoted thus in
reference to women artists:
ST think ladies ought never to study
music as an art At least, they ought
not to take up the time of teachers who
are able to teach and make true artists
And I will tell you why. There is no
question but there are 20 musical ladies
to one musical man. and my own expe-
rience is that they learn more quickly,
have more poetry, and, in fact, are more
diligent pupils than men. But what is
the invariable result? When a young
lady has become a perfect artist, some
handsome mustache comes along, and
she chooses the handsome mustache In
preference to art. ;"
