"shooting starsr or Meteors.

When we get down to talking shooting
stars, we begin to brush around in the
realm of something which all know some
thing about--at least, a great deal more
than we do about supposed fiery lakes in
such gigantic worlds as Jupiter While we
may think that we known all about shoot
ing stars, the following will show that
there are bypaths in every branch of
knowledge which even the wisest among
the common herd know but very little
about.
For an instance Flammarion has an
nounced that the visible number of shoot
ing stars which go sizzling through thu
upper strata of our atmosphere every "a
hours is not less than Z, 500, 900, and that
the telescope meteors increase this mum
Der to 400, 600 600 Professor Hardness,
making calculations on the same subject,
estimates the average weight of these So
called burning stars to be only one
grain. Hcrschel says that their average
height above the earth is something like
73 miles and that they disappear rs soon
as they strike the dense portions of our at
mosphere. st. Louis Republic.

The EVILS oF ovEREATINe.
Unless Neutrslized by Exercise High Feed.
ing Is Extremely Harmful.

l assert that it is the duty of the good
housewife to keep down the appetite OF
her husband, writes the Rev. f. 5. Root
in The Ladies' Home journal. Particular.
ly is this necessary in the cases of well to
do professional and business men. In the
families of mechanics earning low wages
such warning is almost wholly unncces
sary, but it may be said of most men in
good circumstances that they eat too freely
of rich food If men would begin careful
and systematic physical culture in early
youth and continue the practice through
life good health would be the result.
Beyond the age of 40-at period when
SO many are physically lazy-the superior
value of exercise is apparent but ordina.
rily this is just the time when the hygiene
of athletics is neglected. There is no rea-
son why punching bag, rowing machine,
pulley weights and other apparatus should
be RELOCATED TO college boys and clerks.
But, having done II good deal of work in
his time, it is almost impossible to per-
suade business or professional man turn
ing 40 to give any sort of attention tc
physical culture if such training has been
previously neglected
Hence l say it is the duty of woman
to keep from her husband all rich COM
pounds that will ultimately ruin his diges-
ton. High feeding is occasionally neu-
tralized by hard exercise, but in the abb
sence of the latter it is mischievous in the
extreme. If your husband will stand the
treatment, begin by switching off from
the heavy breakfast of steak, hot rolls, po-
tatoas, etc, and set before him eggs on
toast, oatmeal and coffee.

No. 69O.-Charade.

"Now, Johnnie, be certain to heed what l say
And don't begin playing your pranks by the
way.
Run down to the chemist s on Fourth street,

And mind you are careful this paper to show.
Then SECOND the FIRST have mentioned with

And hurry back home; don't lingcr minute. 1"

Nor "A moment in going coming delayed
His mother, quite pleased by his prOmptness

But alas for her plansl As she walked to the

She tripped, and the bottle went smash on the

spoiled,
For it cannot be other than dreadfully soiled -
But suddenly vanished her pang of alarm,
For wHoLE's lucky presence prevented all
harm.

Oldest House In New York.

One of the few relics left of the early
colonial days is still standing at South
ainpton, y. Y. This town claims the pre-
eminence of being the oldest English town
in the state of New York, and the ancient
house referred to was built by Thomas
Sayre, one of the first settlers. 1t was
erected in 1913 and has been handed down
from father to son in an unbroken line for
ten generations the present owner being
the direct descendant of the builder.
At time of threatened Indian outbreak
in 1866 it was one of the rallying places OF
the inhabitants in case of a night attack.
The descendants Of Thomas Sayre are very
numerous, both in this state and in New
Jersey. The ancient mansion, which
stands on the main street of the village, is
an object of curious interest to the multi
tude of city residents who find in that
quiet village by the sea summer resting
place
The massive timbers and covering OF
thick cedar shingles are sufficient to insure
its remaining for years to come as a curl
Gus and interesting relic of a long past
age OF no other house in the state can il
be said that ten generations have been
born and died within its walls. New

 Not having paid our fee, we cannot speak with certainty of the method to be followed and can only mako guesses. The Influence" could hardly be sent through the mails without a postage stamp, and there must be some palpable thing for the stamp to adhere to. It may be that the stamp is affixed to an envel- ope, apparently empty, but i'll reality filled with well directed and powerful "passes, which will attack the nerves of the subject as soon as the seal is broken. If this is the plan, the adyer- tiser might find it profitable to extend his sphere of operation 10 include the transmission of kisses. Many an absent lover would gladly pay $10 for some thing more satisfying than the system of plotted crosses hitherto in use.
 But the general literary character of the advertisement rather favors the con- clusion that the Influence is to be sent in fascinating letter, and that the ''only college of hypnotism ill America' will put its patrons in possession of the secret of writing epistles in comparison with which those of Seyigne and of Horace Walpole shall seem utterly with out power to charm.

 .'Do you know how much money there is in the bank to the credit of the national committee?" asked Quay. "There is just 66 cents, he added. not waiting for a reply. MT. Platt said nothing. He took a seat, and in mo ment handed Senator Quay slip of pa per. The Pennsylyanian made no re- mark. He tapped small hand bell. There entered Captain John Delaney. Ouay whispered something to him and handed him the slip of paper. Captain Delaney went out, but was not long Ill returning.
 When he came, he gave Quay piece of paper much like that which he had carried away. It was a certificate of de posit in the Garfield National bank fol s1o0. GOO. MT.

 Clarence G. Martens, a broker who has a stock farm near Mount Vernon, N. Y, has just bought horse which has all the appearance of huge black sheep. He is about l5.2 hands high, and his hide is covered with a woolly coat, black and as soft as silk. When MT. Martens drove him through the streets of Mount Vernon recently. he attracted crowds of curious people.
 "He is an inbred Wilkes colt, " said Mir Martens, "and is 4 years old. have never speeded him, but the man from whom I bought him assures me that he can trot in 2s30. He was bred in California and is by Sable Wilkes, dam Rosema Wilkes, by Guy Wilkes. "
