Tearing Postage Stamp Sheets.

If you will closely observe a sheet
of stamps you will discover that the
holes running the long way Of the
stamp are closer together than those
running crosswise of the stamps;
the difference in the distance is so
slight that it requires very sharp
eyesight to discover that there is
any difference; but the difference is
there and may be seen in any sheet
of stamps when the perforations are
clean cut. In the stamps first is
sued the pertorations were the same
distance apart but it was speedily
discovered that it was very difficult
to divide the stamps without tearing
them and some ingenious fellow
figured out that by placing the holes
nearer together along one side, there
would be line of least resistance"
placed the long way of the stamps.
The next time you have occasion to
separate sheet of stamps tear them
down the long way, and then by a
slight jerk they may be separated
into individual pieces without tear
ing the stamps.

Old and New Style Calendar.

Under what is called the old style
the Julian calendar assumed the length
of the solar year to be 1864 days,
whereas it was eleven minutes and a
few seconds less. This annual error
accumulated as years rolled on and be-
gan to be fully recognized about the
beginning of the sixteenth century.
The Gregorian calendar, or new style
Of writing dates, was first introduced
in the year 1882, and ten days were
then struck out Of the calendar. 9th
er regulations were also made-name-
~, that one day more should be drop
ped in each hundredth year which was
not fourth hundredth after 1882. In
England the old style was directed to
be discontinued and the new style in
troduced in the year 1852.
The change of style was effected in
the following manner in September,
1859: Eleven days being the difference
between dates written according to the
two styles, old and new, the day after
Wednesday, Sept. 2, 1852, was called
Thursday, Sept. IA, 1852, emitting the
Sd to the 18th, both inclusive. A care

dar" in any encyclopedia will assist

Wise Sayings of Farmer Ben.

That gal down in Ohio that died
last week from tite lacin' was en-
tirely behind the times bless her
foolish heart. She ought to move
up in a civilized ranch and learn
that the hour glass figger is rele-
gated to the customs Of the past and
I hope will never be revived. The
stylish thing in waists nowadays
is to let 'em out until you amt got
much shape, regular Venus del
Medici, but that's where the lungs
and heart can work naturally and
this is blessin' untold in the way
of helpin' health. The fashionable
figger today describes the curves of
a pigeon and it may prove the sal
walton of the race. tell you when
Eve was in the Garden of Eden, she
didn't wear tite corsets that crowd
ed her heart up into her throat.
She went just as the Lord intended
and that's the way women ought to
do now. I calkerlate the fads of to-
day are way ahead in many things.
Women don't brag any more of bein'
white in the face like chalk but the
proper thing is to be brown and
tanned. Women nowadays don't
loll around and play languid and
feeble. They just brag on how far
they can walk and how many loaves
of bread they can make in an hour
and how they can row and play ten
mis- and golf and drive teams and get
good muscle by lots of exercise.
What could that foolish Ohio girl
have been thinkin' of in KILN her
