The Portuguese say that no man can
be good husband who does not cat
good breakfast, which leads the Water
bury American to say that this is a
mean way of throwing upon the wife all
the responsibility for the husbands
goodness, for without good wife there
can be no good breakfast for him to
eat. That may be right in theory, but
it is wrong in practice. We know a man
who has cooked breakfast the greater
part of the time for the past Is years
for his family. And we violate no con-
fidence when we say it is a good break
fast, too. He is man who loves good
living, and he knows how to prepare a

WhateyerA=n1ay BIZ /: said about the
publications OF Rev. ri r. Hicks by
those who do not fully understand, the
facts, there is mo denying the truth thar
his paper and Almanac have come to
stay. His splendid journal, WORLD AND
WORKS, is now entering it's tenth year,
largely Increased in circulation and in
every way improved, until it deserves
the national reputation it has attained.
His 1897 Almanac is now ready and is
by far the finest and most beautiful he
has yet issued, It contains 1OS pages
including cover artistical]y printed in
colors, and is full from back to back with
just what is wanted in every shop, Office
and home in America. One feature of
the Almanac for 1897 is series of 70
original, beautifully engraved star maps,
with explanatory chapters, which could
not be bought for less than five dollars
IN any work on astronomy. AS Mr..
Hicks has SO correctly and faithfully
warned the public of coming droughts,
Hoods, cold waves, billiards, tornadoes
and cyclones, in the years passed, aside
from the other varied and splendid
features Of his paper and Almanac, these
considerations alone should prompt
every family to subscribe at once for
1887. The Almanac is only 25cts. copy.
Word and Works is one dollar year.

PECULiARlTiES OF MlLLlONAlRES
Use Halfpenny Stamps and Have Poor
Dinner.

Dinner.
I have been asked whether I ever re-
ceive social invita- tions from million
aires in open envelopes, with halfpen-
ny stamps, and what I think of the
practice on the part of the millionaires:
says London Truth. It is not often that
I am privileged to receive invitations
from millionaires under any circum-
stances, but it is remarkable fact that
I have had such an invitation addressed
to me at the halfpenny rate of postage,
and as others have had a similar ex-
perience [ suppose that millionaires as
a class have weakness for halfpenny
postage stamps. Probably this weak
ness has something to do with their
having become or remained million
aires.
worse failing on the part of mil
ionaires of which have experience is
that they occasionally ask their friends
to dinner and sit them down to meal
quite unfit to eat. Personally, would
rather that a man took halfpenny off
the postage of my invitation and spent
it on the dinner. So far as the invita-
ton is concerned, there may possibly
be many people who, when invited to
the houses of millionaires, would wish
the fact widely known and would pre-
fer, if possible, that the invitation
should be sent on postcard, so that all
who run may read. Perhaps it is from
this kindly motive rather than from
parsimony that millionaires patronize
the halfpenny post. Let US think as
well of Dives as we can.

STOPPING A TRAIN.
Important Discovery That Has just Been
Made in Europe.

Important Discovery That Has just Been
Made in Europe.
Some important discoveries have Just
been made in Europe, says the New
York Herald.
How to stop a train when an accident
is impending has long been a problem.
Many plans have been suggested, but
almost all have been considered faulty
for the reason that they call for quick
stoppage. In such a case the shock
would be SO great that the carriages
between the engine and the rear of
the train would be smashed to atoms;
and their occupants crushed to death.
Evidently, therefore, a gradual stop
page is imperative.
An admirable plan, which ena ples a
train to slow down gradually, has re-
Gently been tested at the railroad sta
ton in Dresden. It is extremely sim
pie and has been found to work we'll.
No intricate machinery is required, and
the cost must be small. A track is laid.
the rails Of which sink or slope grad
ually into bed Of sand AS the train
passes over this sand it's wheels meet
with an eyer-increasing resistance,
which soon becomes SO great that they
are obliged to stop. The stoppagc, how
ever, is so gradual that there is no
rough shock. The greater the swiftness
OF the train and the heavier the lead
the more immediate is the stoppage
No damage then is possible either as
regards the train Or the passengers.
An experiment which was recently tried
with freight train showed clearly the
usefulness of this very practical and
simple plan.

H.. Clay Emmett, a young cowboy.
from Bolton, Tex, reports a singular
find made by him during cattle-hunt-
ing roundup in the Panhandle coun-
try recently, says the Denver Field and
Farm. The find was nothing more or
less than a petrifed pony, standing
erect and complete in all it's parts. EN-
NETT says that he and his partner, B. c.
Woodville, were riding across the prai-
RE late one afternoon when their tired
ponies neighed and whinnied as if they
were aware Of tbs presence of another
animal. Looking around, they discov-
cred what they thought was broncho
tethered to mesquite which crowned
the summit of a little knoll to the north
ward.
They rode up to the spot and found
chain, but stood so rigidly and seemed
altogether so mysterious that their own
horses reared and plunged as if il,
fright. Finally they dismounteq and
found that the pony was petrifed, not
hair or hoof amsss. Emmett says
that some ranchman years ago must
have chained the poor horse there, leay-
ing it to starve upon the plains. AS the
ribs Of the animal We're plainly visible
in the petrifaction and it seemed to
have been otherwise much emaciated,
this is probably the case. Emmett will
arrange to have the strange find ex-
hibited in some museum. It frequently
happens that horses fall into the habit
of going to sleep while standing, and it
must have been under these circun1-
stances that the Panhandle broncho
departed this life to join the great ma
jority.
