New YorIk,s Egg Consumntlon.

New York City consumes 22S3 eggs
every minute Of the day, which means
100,00O000 dozen a year. The city
may feel Independent of the hen so
far as the Matching process is con.
cerned, but is entirely dependent for
its supply of eggs on the moody crcG'
ture who regulates her output accord
ing as the weather happens to suit her
whlms. These hens get food and lodS.
ing for their part Of the work and
their owners receive $20,O00,O0O year.
for the 342 eggs that they supply an
nually to each inhabitant Of the city.
This is a great and growing industry
that has brought into existence many
chicken ranches-and some of the larg
est in the world-within easy reach of
the metropolis. At Manasquan n. j.,
800 acres of land have been prepared
for giant hen industry, to be conduct
ed on scientific methods, and which
will support laying herd" Of 200,0O0
chickens. with an estimated output OF
30000,000 eggs for the first year This
plant is extraordinarily large, but there
are scores of lesser ones and many
more yet smaller about the New York

Arithmetic 5000 Yenrs OH.

Probably the oldest book for home
lessons in arithmetic was recently IN.
earthed in Egypt. The papyrus, which
was in excellent condition, dates from
about 100 b. C.-that is, about 100
years before the time Of Moses, or al
most 5000 years ago. 1t proves that
the Egyptians had thorough knowl-
edge Of the elementary mathematics
almost to the extent Of our own. The
papyTus has Il long heading, "Dlrec-
tion How to Attain the knowledge Of
all Dark Things" etc, Numerous OK
amples show that their principal opera
tions with entire units and fractions
were made by means Of addition and
multiplication. Subtraction and divi-
sions were not known in their present
form, but correct results were obtained
nevertheless. Equations were also
found in the papyrus. Newcastle

rAo tortoise as a weather Prophet.

Though the tortoise is an excellent
weather prophet, the fact is known to
comparatively few people Tortoise
farmers on the African coast notice
that even twenty-four hours before
rain falls these curious animals pre-
pare for it by seeking the convenient
shelter Of overhanging rocks. 1t may
be bright, clear, sunshiny morning
but the farmers believe implicitly in
the tactics If tine tortoise, who is sell
dom mistaken, for the downpour is
certain to come within the time stated.
A pet tortoise would be a practical
present to bestow on ones friends.
This curious premonition Of the ap.
proach of rain is shared by many 9TH
er animals and birds and may be ey-
planned partially by the fact that while
rain is forming the atmosphere is de-.
creasing in weight, but there may also
be some need of moisture which makes
them aware Of its approach or some
habits Of life which make them thus
sensitlve.-Chicago Record,

CHILDREN ANp Cash.

Spending Money?

Spending Money?
An Investigation which by many will
be regarded as singular was conduct
ed recently in n large school in ST.
Paul 1t had for its purpose to deter
mine in general the notion which chil-
dren have of the practical uses OF
money
A list of questions was furnished by
the professor, which the children an.
swered in writing, as in an ordinary
examination. The questions sought TO
determine the childs estimate of mon.
ey which he had acquired in three dlf.
ferent ways, namely, by gift. suggest
ing partial restraint as to spending;
by earning, the most difficult means OF
acquiring, and by finding, by which
he acquired with least difficulty. TO
these ends the following questions
were asked:
"If you are given money, about how
much each week"
III you earn money, about how much
each week?"
what do you do with your money!"
"If you ever found money, what di ]
you do with IT,"
'If you had 81 to spend as you liked.
what would you buy?"
1t was found that of the 1868 chill
dren reporting. siXty-two per cent
earned, or were given money, or both,
in amounts ranging from five cents 10
50 per week. OF those who thus re-
ceived money ffty-seven per cent
made useful disposition Of it, and Of
the $50 children who had found money
twenty-eight per cent. put it to useful
purposes. A noteworthy characteristic
to finding money was that siXty-four
per cent. of those who had done so
expressed having made attempt to re-
store ii to the loser, and that eighty
two per cent. Of those who had not
found money stated that If they should
do so they would try to find the
owner" or put i'm the paper if
large amount, or give it to the princ-
pal or teacher to be restored to the
owner The professor regards this ne
indicating the honesty Of children in
general and as furnishing n point for
explanation by the materialists, who
look upon a child as a little savage ana
upon boyhood and grlhood as a period
of low moral tendencies
or the 9G7 children who gave spec
ifc answers as to what they would do
with a dollar If allowed to spend Il
as they pleased sixty-two per cenr.
would invest It in useful things such
as clothing and books; thirty per cent.
would buy articles not useful; three
per cent. would use it for benevolent
purposes, such as relieving the poo,.
and five per cent. would buy presents
for their friends.-San Franci- "

paper became duller than ever: its cir

revenues fell off. The second Mrs.

writer when he espoused her, but
who, after marriage, proved to be a

"the die is castw Then. in low tone
Of voice, she uttered the words; Bon

In the forenoon of that same day she
drove to the office Of the paper, un-
locked the editorial sanctum, mounted
the big chair, called the scribblers of
the STAFF into her presence. set about
her duties, and turned Off manuscript,
page after page, easily and rapidly,
like Kola. In her first article she an.
nounced, in "Notice to Our Readers"
that she had assumed the editOrship
of the paper in order TO give relief to
Mr.. Pod.
Since that day Mrs. Editor Pod has
transformed the paper, filling its veins

so that it IS the exponent Of opinions
the reverse Of those which it had pre-
viously stood for rain or shine. 1t is
racy. 1t is a rattler.
Mr. Pod is satisfied. He never criti-
cises Mrs Pods "vievs," her policy.
her editorials her logic or her syntaX.
He is, it is said, her echo, just as the
original Mrs. Pod was his echo. He
has become as meek in spirit as his
first wife was. His second wife has
more vim than he had when at his
best, and the paper is more popular
than in former times He enjoys larg-
er revenues than ever, along with free.
dom from worry There is peacO in
his household, up to this time.
AS for Mrs Pod she likes her sane
tum, her chair, and her power. She
exercises her rights, and is not afraid

opposed. She scolds men whom he
