MISE WORDS,

All days are short where pleasure
reigns.
Zeal without knowledge is fire with
out light.
Failure often puts forth the bright
est blossoms.
Virtue and happiness are mother
and daughter.
Wise men make more opportunities
than they find.
The small woman very often has
the biggest heart.
The fool is the only one that does
not fear responsibility.
1t is not wise to despise wealth, but
it is far inferior to moral worth.
In the garden of humanity the weed
too often takes prominence of the
flower.
1t is not enough for thing to be
good, but it must be good at the right
moment.
1t is one thing to wish to have
truth on our side, and another thing
to wish to be on the side of truth.
Never make fun of man because
his trousers are short. His intellect
may be several feet longer than your
own.
The man who staggers least under
the weight of reverses is the man who
walks upright when the sky is cloud
less.
Who is q true man? He who does
the truth, and never holds principle
on which he is not prepared in any
hour to act, and in any hour to risk
the consequences of holding it.

She tied n bunch of paper loosely
about a oom-handle and sprinkled
kerosene over the torch. She stood
on barrel and held this light up to
the opening the cougars had made in
the shed. They did mot dare to spring
at the fire. In fact, they had not five
seconds to decide on any proceeding,
for, Keegan, putting the muzzle of
the double -barrelled gun through Il
clink in the wall of the shed, shot
both neatly, from distance of six
feet. The charges of shot passed
solidly, like great bullets, through
the lank bodies.
And then Mrs. Ames surprised and
alarmed the settler as never cougars
could. She went into Mysteries, and
was still wildly laughing and crying
at once, when her husband came up
the path. and held her in his strong
arms, and soothed the brave little
mother to quiet while the tired baby
went contentedly to sleep.-Youth's

An Old Nesting Place.

The longevity of the buzzard was
being discussed by party of men at
the hotel in Dickson recently, when
"Uncle" Charley Smith, ninety-four
years, declared that the average life
of tlis fowl is 100 years. Four miles
north of Dickson, in lonely forest,
stands an old hollow oak with an en-
trance Mt the root. In this "Uncle'
Charley declares that seventy-tive
years ago, he found while hunting
game, nest of youGg buzzards, two
in all. The mother bird, which could
he distinguished by white feather in
her right wing, made a great protest
against "Uncle" Charley's intrusion,
and he left the brood unmolested.
Ever since the same buzzard has reared
her brood of two heecy goslings in
this secluded spot, and no one knows
how long she had occupied the place
before "Uncle" Charley found her.
The young birds, until they are six
weeks old, are white and bear strong
resemblance to gosling. They are
very timid and on the approach OF an
enemy they always hide their heads
and leave their bodies exposed. Then
abode is very foul, and in these sew
enty-five years no animal has ever
been known to disturb the nest. noi
has gosling ever been known to die

Anthracite coal discovered at his

lima, shows an analysis of ninety-tive

The German timber trade has in
creased enormously with the advent
of railways through the Black Forest,
the Odenwald and the Thuringenwald.
Mahogany is now very generally
substituted for hickory in the manu-
facture of wagon wheels in France, it
being found cheaper and quite as dur

The number of stars visible to the
naked eye is less than 5000. The num-
ber of stars visible through the largest

100, 600, 900.
The cylindrical bales of cotton now
shipped from the United States to
Liverpool are pronounced great i'm
provemcnt upon the first specimens,
and also upon the old bale.
The course of the blood-vessels in
dead animals or birds is now examined
by the X-rays. In order to make the
arteries, etc., give photograph, or
'radiograph," they are first injected
with mercury. Very beautiful results
have been thus attained.
There are twenty-siX pencil works in
Bavaria, of which twenty three are in

Peat is treated in an English pro-
cess, patented by Mr.. Blundell, hy
being formed into paste, nodded into
tubes four or five inches through, then
cnt into sticks and dried for three or
four weeks. Thus prepared, the ma

more proftably made into charcoal in
retorts. Three tons ofpeat make one
ton of charcoal. The process is to be
tested in Italy, where are large de-
posits of peat.

why the Diamond CLEANS.

The diamond is full of phosphorus.
This quality has been known for CEN
turies, and still there are many who
do not know it, That is the reason
often that CLEANS of light are seen is
suing from the stone in the dark. To
this quality alone attaches great deal
of value. The most phosphorescent
stone is the one that is the best cut.
If there be phosphorus in the stone, it
is greatly enhanced by proper cutting,
so that its scintillating faculties are
increased.

Daring Steenle Climbing,

Vienna has been astonished lately
by some daring steeple climbing. A
steeple jack celebrated the beginning
of the festivities for Emperor Francis
Joseph's jubilee by climbing in the
night to the top of one of the steeples
of the Votive Church, 3O6 feet from
the ground, by means of the lightning
rods and architectural ornaments, and
hanging on it q yellow and black ban
ner twenty feet long. He gave mi
mute description of the manner in
which he accomplished his foolhardy
feat to the newspapers. A few nights
later some one else initiated him by
climbing the steeple and stealing the
flag.
