In an entertaining collection of anec-
dotal history regarding the life and times
of Bismarck. published by Harper &
Bros. occurs the following:
Bismarck and Bancroft. the American
historian and mt that time minister to the
court of Berlin. were one day dining with
Herr Won der Hcydt, who prided himself
on the quantity and quality of the food
which he furnished to his guests, and Of
that dinner the following story is told:
"In those days QS6S) Bismarck was
still in possession Of his wonderful appe-
titc Bancroft, at first amazed, became
at last anxious on seeing his friend twice
partake largely of the first courses. Dear
count he remarked with a world Of anx-
iety in his voice, 4 believe there is more
to come 4 should hope So replied Bis
marck, joyfully, and renewed his terrify-
ing practice at the next course"

saying in one of his stories-and while
the statement is not true as regards Irish
agriculturists generally, for it is horned
cattle, sheep and horses that pay most
of the rents in Ireland, the pig has al
ways played very important part in the
social economy of the small farmer and

An old highlander rather fond Of his

DEEP IN The WOODS.

Deep in the heart OF the silent woods
Stilled to the stiffness Of thought,
Under the calm Of the tranquil skies
Lies best lesson is taught.
What is the foolish strife Of man,
What is his striving worth,
When the purest rapture Of living is found
In the beauty and peace Of earth?
Sweet is the balm Of the restful woods,
Truthful the teaching and wise;
JOY lives out in the open world.
Under the open skies.
Evil and sin in the crowded ways
Find always the surest birth,
And it's far from the town that the soul must
seek
The beauty and peace Of earth

Among the lonely hills it lies.

Among the lonely hills it lies.
Deep, dark and still,
And mirrors back the changeful skies,
The sun, moon, stars the bird that flies,
The broad, brown shouldered hill.
The worlds wide voice is silent here;
The cries Of men,
The sob, the laugh, the hope, the fear,
The things which make earth sad and dear,
Lie all beneath its ken.
And only he who comes from far,
Seeking the deep
Communion sweet with sun and star,
Knows Of the calm and joys that are
In its vast siirless sleep.
For here the eternal soul holds speech,
Yet makes no sound;
With naught but clouds which one might
reach.
The black food, the untrodien beach,
And hardening space around.
Time and the things Of time are not;
The path we trod
Ends with the worlds end here and thought
Can neither see nor dream % ausht
Save mans own heart and God.

Farm Raised It's Own Mortgage,

4 queer story is told by a Lincoln (Neb.) paper of how misfortune of it's own accord turned into good luck for q Nebraska farmer. He was man from Missouri, who had invested his all in a big wheat field in Buffalo county, and then by means of a mortgage on his land he raised $700 with which to raisa wheat. It happened to be poor year for wheat, and the stand was not very good. Concluding that it wasn't wortb harvesting, he pulled up his stakes and went back to Missouri, leaving the farm to fight the mortgage all by itself. The farm was equal to the occasion. The wheat ripened, fell down and deposited the seed in the soil again. Next spring the wheat began to grow lustily. Some of the neighbors were honest enough to write about it down to tho fugitive !n Missouri, and he got interested enough to come back and take look Then he stopped and harvested hit voluntary crop. He sold it for enough to pay off the mortgage and the resi- of his debts and had tidy little sur plus over, with which he moved hia family back, and now declares there is no state like Nebraska.

oohte de Dion,s Ira .rormat,.n.

lne way to make useful citizen out
 T an idler is to give him a real inte-. est III life. Comte de Dion. the promot- CT of the automobile in France, where inc new vehicle first attained popular ity, is, according to the Bicycling World, striking illustration of this truth, The comte was long the typical white carnation of the Paris aristoc- raey, which means that he was a 'er-do-wel. The merest aeciden. suffieed to put him on the right track. One day he bought miniature loco- motive for the little son of one of his friends. and carried the toy to the child. But though they lighted the alcohol lamp and got up steam in the lE Ter, for some reason the thing v work. Comte de Dion is of disposition. He persisted tried t-l.s s and that, finally taking off his Tt to work more at ease. He pu2zi.sd the whole afternoon on the engine with no success. Then he car ried it home and spent the night squat ting on the floor amidst an assortment of serewdrivers, hammers and files he had bought on the way. The Ioeomoe tive was taken completely apart and readiusted several times. At last, to- ward daybreak, the young count had the satisfaction of seeing the toy travel merrfly around the room. Having thus discovered within him taste and an aptitude for mechanics, Conte de Dion did not return to his idling, but studied until he became an engineer. It was st this period that he showed remark able business perspicacity in investing all his capital in the automobile indus try. At a time when everybody was deriding the first clumsy machines that spurted and shied and then re- fused to budge for hours, he under stood the possibilities Of the motor car and resolutely cast his lot with It's fortune. It is generally acknowledged tha. no man in France has done so mu h to further the cause of the new loc' motion.

SUNS JOURNEY.
Velocity Is Between Six and Twelve
 Miles Per Second

Miles Per Second.
 By means of the spectroscope we can obtain probably more accurate deter- imitation of the suns velocity through space, says the Gentlemans Magazine As is well known the velocity of 1tar in the line of sight can be found by measuring the displacement of the lines visible in the stars spectrum. Now the stars near the position of the solar "apeX" should be approaching the earth on account Of the solar motion, and those at the opposite point of the sky-called the santi-apex" "-should be eeeeding. This method has been em. ployed by several astronomers, espec- tally by Vogel at the Potsdam obserya- tory. This able astronomer has found from an examination of forty stars that the suns velocity through space is about seven and one-half miles sec ond, and an examination Of larger number of stars would be necessary before we could consider this result as thoroughly established. From an ex- animation of the speetra Of fourteen nebulae, Prof. Keeler of the Lick ob- servatory has found yeloeities in tha line of sight and from these the French astronomer Tisserand has deduced velocity of about nine and one-third miles for the solar motion. result which does not differ widely from that found by Vegel. We may, therefore, perhaps conclude that the velocity of the suns motion through space is be- tween six and twelve miles per second. The average velocity of the stars meas ured at Potsdam is about ten and 9ne- half miles # second and possi tha sun may have a similar yeloe.!
