Holding tho Tongue.

No organ of tho human anatomy is more
often falsely accused of wrongdoing than
the innocent tongue. Even in sacred writ
it is called that unruly member" and
we are adjurcd to hold it, rs though it
were possessed of an evil spirit that would
lead it and lis to wo know not what excess
But in truth tho faithful, obcdient tongue
has nothing to do with our wicked and
hasty words, our false witncssings and on,
mockings. Our proncncss to lay the blame
upon it is only another manifestation of
that natural tendency to shift responsible
ity which Father Adam first manifested in
the garden of Eden. The tongue indeed |!
When did it utter naughty words I'M
prompted by pcrvcrsc and hayward
nindy The trouble lies much deeper than
with the tongue. 1t is Embedded in our
very natures
So holding the tongue" of itself is not
sufficient. The gossip must not be CON

things and substitute for it broad and

of hasty words must not be satisfied with

Fox Hunting, Not Miss Nancyism.


There has always been i'll the north,
and moro particularly throughout tho
New England states, class who depre-
Gated fox hunting, wondered what the
world was coming to when an ablebod-
led man could waste such valuable time
whilc there was SO much to do, but the
south is almost if not quite free from men
who think thus, although there are
many worthy people who know nothing
of the sport and who think that fox
hunting, tea drinking and Miss Nancy
ism go hand in hand and consider it
their bounden duty to hold the red
jacket gentry up to ridicule. However,
those who know aught of cross country
riding where the jumps are stiff and the
country hard to navigate will tell you
that in order to excel i'll tho field, or in
deed to stay there at all, your fox hunter
must be i'll capital trim or ccme to an
inglorious and oft timo serious end. He
must steer clear of that physical condi-
ton so abhorrent to all athletes and
termed by them "soft. ''-Hanson Hiss

Torpedoes For Use on Land.

"This lisa mere suggestion, said Mr..
Glimby, "but l think there may be
something i'll it. We have torpedoes
whose course can be directed from tho
shore against ships Why should we not
have torpedoes which could be sent
against an army on land? Instead of
charging the enemy send out torpedoes
on electric carriages, each with its wire
trailing behind. Some of them would be
disabled or blown up, maybe, by tho
cnemy's fro before they reached them,
but some would get there and when
they did, why, you'd press the button
and the torpedo would do tho rest.
And don't see why such torpedoes
couldn't DO sent out at night on the land
on rubber tired wheels to climb fortifi-
cations and be exploded there. They
might be discovered and stopped by the
enemy's pickets, but suppose you should
get ono through? 1 think there's bust
hess i'll this, and it's funny to mo no.

CURRENT MISCELLANY.

Before the cutting Of the Suez canal
shortened the route to China the bulk of
the tea crop consumed in Great Britain
was carried to London in sailing ships
by way of the cape of Good Hope The
choicest teas were transported overland
by caravan and found Il ready market
i'll Russia, the homo of the tea connois-
seur. To tho fastidious taste of Mus
covite noble sea voyage ruins the deli
cato flavor of the leaves and renders
them unfit for samovar. The British
consumer is by no means so dainty. The
business Of tho London tea merchant is
to grab hold of tho new crop rs soon as
possible and to dump it by the shipload
on an eager and waiting market.
Tho keen competition of tho importers
produced the famous tea clippers-full
rugged ships of 700 or 500 tons register
with fine yachtlike lines, heavily spared
and rugged and capable of Is knots an
hour under especially favorable condi-
tons Every voyage was race and
thrillingly exciting. A premium was
paid to the ship that arrived first, and
heavy wagers were staked on the speed
Of tho rivals. There was nothing to
compare with this emulous contest for
sea supremacy except that which used
to exist between tho ships of our own
California fleet before tho days of cheap
transcontinental railroad freights. s.
