The other evening he sat in his cheer
full apartment, with a warm dressing
gown about him, and talked to friend
about how the troubles Of life had fallen
away from him, how at last he had ar.
rived in the haven. His friend told him
that he was just In the condition to ex.
perience new disturbance, deeper than
all the others; that this rest was only a
lull in the storm.
"What do you mean?" he asked.
The reply was counter question.
'Are you as much resolved as ever
to live alone?" this friend asked.
There was a pause. Then the contem.
plative man said slowly, "As an alb.

as disagreeable to me as it did,"
His friend smiled. "You will find
that you will be deeply disturbed again

WHAT A WORK is MAN!

rhe Human B0dx the Most WOnder-
full Thing In the World.
Human beings are Of all sizes, but the
tall man is less common than the short
Only one in every 208 exceeds the
height Of six feet. For every foot Of
stature man should weigh from 10 to
% pounds, a proportion that ia not the
lot of all in these hurrying, sourrying
days. An average sized man weighs lao
pounds; woman 1876 pounds. Curious
ly enough, the mean weight and height
Of lunatics are below those Of sane peo-,
Pile Another unexpected thing in this
respect is that negroes skeleton weighs
more than that Of an Englishman,
The vitalising power ia the blood, q
drop Of which takes but ~ seconds to
go the round Of the body. There passes
through the heart once every three min.
utes an amount Of this precious fluid
equal to all that is contained in the
body. The mileage Of the blood oircula-
ton reveals some astonishing and nm
dreamed Of truths. 1t is estimated that,
assuming the average speed of the heart
to be 80 beats a minute, the blood
travels 207 yards in 60 seconds. In 9th
er words, miles an hour, lGs day,
or 6,820 per year.
II man Of 81 could have one single
blood corpuscle floating in his blood all
bis life, it would have traverged in that
period no less than 100, sos miles.
The average weight Of the brain Of an
adult male is 8 pounds 8 ounces. :
of female 2 pounds s ounces. The
woman's brain begins to decline in
weight after the age Of 80, the mans
not till ten years later. According to
high authorities the nerves, with their
branches aud minute ramifcations con-
Meeting with the brain, exceed 10, 000.-
900 in number.
The palms Of the hands and soles Of
the feet are composed of cushions of fat,
in order that sudden jolts and violent
blows may be successfully resisted and
no injury done to the muscles and bones
underneath. The muscles-of which
the tongue monopolizes land bones
Of the human structure in combination
are capable Of more than 200 different
motions
The teaching Of experience indicates
that accidents are far more likely to o.
cur to the right leg and arm than to
the left. Further evidence Of this fact
10 supplied by the makers of artificial
limbo. They dispose Of many more ap-
pendages to the right side of the body
than to the other. Statistics show that
in "a oases out of 100 the left leg is
stronger than the right.
II man could move his legs proper
tionally as fast as an ant, be would
travel not far from 800 miles an hour.

1t appears strange that
Wilmington witt, three
Republican members has
not as much Influence as
the one member who rep
resents the Seventh Rep
resentative district. Rep
preventative FrizZeIl held
out for his choice for the
clerk of the House. Rep
resentatlve West backed Isham for
sergeant-at-arns. They both landed
their men. Wilmington as usual.
with its 10000 population has not
even one position in the Offices of the
House or Senate. 1t is time that
the Wilmington members should
have as much weight in the caucus
as one of the rural members. Will
mington has never been treated
right, Rural New Castle county
captured two Of the best positions
in the House. An enrolment clerk
is yet to be appointed who will be
chosen on joint ballot by the House
and or Senate.

An illuminated sign on a store up
town spells the name Of the proprietor
in letters outlined by electric lights and
is lit up and then made dark again
automatically. When the sign begins
to shine out, the electric bulbs at the
left are the first to appear, and then the
illumination follows the course Of an
immense pen writing the name out. So
closely is the course of the pen followed
that the 81" in the name is not dotted
with its especial electric light dot until
the last flourish az the extreme right Of
the name is lit up. Then, with per-
ceptible interval, as if the gigantic pen
was being carried back, the dot on the
81" is made and shines out and the
whole name appears.-New York Sun.
