The next important work to be taken up
by the Lick observatory, on Mount Hamil-
ton, California will be the determination
of the rate at which the bodies of the solar
system are moving-whether five miles a
second, or twenty miles, or whatever the
rate may be. This has never been accu-
rately determined, but it can be.
ITO do this, says Prof. Campbell of the
observatory, 1--WE will pick out 600 or 800
of the brightest stars and ascertain, one at
a time, how fast each is going, and then
by mathematical calculation in reference
TO the whole reach the accurate determine
ton. We will select 800 or 400 stars that
are moving from us, and as many more
that are moving toward us. 1t will be an
intricate but very interesting kind of
work. l expect great things from it,"

Why He Was a ,PiscopnI.

An Episcopal clergyman, passing his va
cation in Indiana, struck an old farmer,
who declared that he was a Episcopal. -
"To what parish do you belong?" asked
the clergyman. Don't know nawthin'
bout emmy parish" was the answer "Well,
then" continued the clergyman, ''what do
cese do you belong top "They amt
nawthin' like that round here said the
farmer. "Who confirmed you, them" was
the next question. "Nobody," answered
the farmer. "Then how are you an Epis-
copalian?' asked the clergyman. "Well,"
was the reply, ''you see, it's this way. Last
winter l went down to Arkansas visitin,
and while l was there went to church,
and it was called Episcopal, and l herd
them say that they'd left undone the
things what they'd oughter done, and they
had done some things whot they oughten
done, and l says to myself, says l, that S

Henry Gannett, an able and painstaking
statistician, calculates that in 1880 the
wealth of the United States was $43, 642,
100000, or an average of $50 to each in
habitant; that it was about $62, 600, OOO,-
600 in 1890, or about $1,000 to each inhab-
liant, and that at both dates it was greater
than the wealth of any other nation. Mr..
Gannett finds that per cent of the total
wealth of the country is owned by million
aires, p per cent by people worth from
100000 to S1,000,000 each, 25 per cent by
those worth from $4,000 to 100000, 81
per cent, the largest percentage, by those
worth from $1,000 to $4,000 each, and 6
per cent by those owning less than $1,000
each.

MISCELLANY.


She sat en- he sliding cushion,
The dear wee woman of four,
Her feet in their shiny slippers
Hung dangling over the floor.
She meant 20 be good; she had pro missed;
And 90. with her big brown eyes,
She stared at the meeting house windows
And counted the crawling flies.
She looked far up at the preacher;
But she thought Of the honey bees
Droning away In the blossoms
That whtened the cherry trees
She thought of the broken basket,
Where cured in a dusky heap.
Three sleek, round puppies, with fringy ears
Lay struggled and fast asleep
Such soft. warm bodies to cuddle,
Such queer little hearts to beat,
Such swift, round tongues to kiss,
Such sprawling. cushiony feet
She could feel in her clasping fingers
The touch Of the satiny skin,
And a cold, wet nose exploring
The dimples under her chin
Then a sudden ripple Of laughter
Ran over the parted lips
SO quick that she could not catch 1t
With her rosy finger tips.
The people whispered, Bless the child ''
As each one walked from nap;
But the dear wee woman hid her face
For shame in her mothers lap

Much care" said a taxidermist,
''has to be taken in selecting the long,
fine pins used in fastening the speci-
mems in insect collections. For cheap
collections of butterflies and bugs we
use the ordinary brass pins mostly, but
every one of these must be carefully ex
amined before impaling the insect to see
that it is well timed, for were the tin
coating imperfect or the slightest flaw
evident it would be in nine cases ont of
ten liable to oxidize in the body Of the
insect, and thus destroyit We also use
black vanished pins. but they are al
most as bad. for the glazed coating soon
cracks, leaving the metal exposed. and
consequently it is not very long before
oxidization sets. Even the more expen-
81 ire kind, the nickel plated pins, are not
much better. The latest things we have
now are solid silver pins and bronze
pins and there is being used as an ex-
pertinent nickel and aluminium alloy.
which possesses decided advantages over
all the others kinds used. New York
