The Weight of the Sea.


To arrive at any conclusion as to the
weight of the sea would be difficult in the
absence of sufficiently accurate and exact
figures as to area. Mr.. Schooling, a writer
In Longman's Magazine, has confronted
and dealt with the problem. He has been
measuring and weighing the sea, and ac-
cording to his calculations 'the number oi
gallons in the whole sea is 373, 600, 600 600, :
00O, 000,0 900, which, IL it could be poured
away at the rate Of 1000 gallons a second,
would take nearly 1900, O0O, 900 years to get
rid Of. II we could sell it even at low a
price as shilling for 10000 gallons, the bill
would come to FL $3.50, 900, 900 100000
Surprising the sea to be forl. d into a
round column reaching to the sun, the di.
ameter of the column would be nearly ~
miles The Pacific would form $1,000, 600
miles of its total length OF 93, 900 900, and
the Atlantic 100000 If it were column
of ice, and the entire heat Of the sun could
be concentrated upon 1t, it would all be
melted in one second and converted into
gas In eight seconds, which illustrates the
heat Of the sun rather than the size of the
sea- The weight of the sea is ,G65 900, O00,-
0O0, DOC, 900 tons, and il contractor took the
job to move 1t at even SO moderate a price
as thousand tons for a penny he would
require to be paid the amount of the ma
tional debt 10000 times over in reward for
his labors

Children who are allowed or rather en-.
couraged to take a nap in the daytime will
not only sleep just as well at night, but
will sleep much better because OF it. Chill
dren who have been accustomed to it, when
for some special reason 1t Is necessary to
miss it, become overtired. their nerves are
oyertaxed, and it is sometimes quite a trial
of patience to get them quleted for the
night. The little ones need plenty of sleep
and If we'll will not sleep any more than IL
good for them. Therefore, say, let them
sleep all that they will or can, and II your
boy will take nap during the day until he
is 8 or years Of age he will not be any the
worse for 1t. Rather, in my way of think
ing, he will be great deal better for IL, and
80 will the mother-that is, IL he is az active
and noisy ~ the average wee laddes. So
don't try to "break up" his naptime. On
the contrary, encourage him to keep IL up
just as long Us he will do so.-Chicsgo

DO safer. A few days ago prominent gem

Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and l take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in

A Rockland man had queer experience
one evening. He and a friend were driv-
ing quite rapidly along lonely road
when the friend received a severe blow in
the back of the head. This was followed
by another and yet another in rapid sue
cession-sharp, vicious blows that made
his head swim. The horse was stopped,
and both men alighted, fighting mad, to
trounce their assailant, but no one was
found. They started on their journey
again, disguised and mad, only to discov-
er as they put their horse in motion again
that the halter, which had been under the
seat, was caught in the wheel, with every
revolution of which the knotted end
thumped cheerfully at the head of the &C.
cupant of that side of the wagon.-Rock-
