London's Undermined Houses,

Underground London is, no doubt
very convenient, picturesque and,
when properly confined in tubes, safe
enough place, but too much of it be-
comes awkward. An underground city
might prove too much even for the
Lord Mayor and the Court OF Alder
men. And yet strong disposition ap-
pears to have seized certain parts of
the square mile" to get down below,
probably to escape the cold, and they
are consequently cracking in an omi-
nous way.
Uneasiness prevails among property
owners on both sides of Finsbury pave
ment, owing to gaping assures which
have appeared in many large business
premises. Ground floors, upper floors
and easements have alike suffered,
and in several instances the cracks are
said to be most curious. Many of the
properties have been recently surveyed,
and reports are being drawn up in re-
gard thereto. 1t is supposed that new
excavations are responsible for this dis.
quieting instability. London Telc-
graph.

The "Hegiran of 1887,


1t Is almost certain that a record
number of Americans will cross the
Atlantic for the coronation, and it is
very probable that record time may
be accomplished. But such events will
not attract so much public attention
as the records established in the spring
preceding the coronation of Queen Vie
toria. The Great Western steam packet
caused immense astonishment by max
ing maiden trip from Bristol to New
York in fifteen days. On May Z, 1888,
she started from New York ON her
return voyage with passengers desir-
Gus of being present in London for the
coronation. Quite 100000 persons as.
sembled to witness her departure, with
bands of music, and variety of steam.
boats attended her to Sandy Hook.
She carried siXty-eight cabin passen-
gers, the greatest number that had
ever crossed in one ship, at thirtyfive
guineas each. Her arrival at Bristol
on May % settled the doubt warmly
discussed by the British Association,
two years previously, as to the possi-
bility of steamship communication be-
tween England and America.-NeW

Thompson went leaping up the hill
like kangaroo until he got to a box
half covered with sand beneath d tree
in the orchard. Then Thompson went
back faster than he had gone up, and
sat down on a tie. No color was in
his face, and his hands trembled.
Surrounding him crowded the Irish
men, who made so much noise no one
heard the lightning express as it went
laundering by. Nor would the men so
back to work, as long as the box was
on the hill. Engineer Bob Watson
called the conductor to him and learned
the situation.
"'Pll take the things out of there,
as he slipped down the iron steps to
the sand. Up the hill he went till he
came to the box, when he caught hold
of the protruding end and he gave it
a twist that sent both box and the en-
gineer rolling and tumbling with. the
bones rattling down the hill. Con-
ductor Thompson sent a delegation to
the new home of Graham Davis to tell
him where the bodies of the children
were, and to request him to carry them
away.

Wearing Out the Nerves.

Many people wear themselves out
needlessly; their conscience is tyrant.
An exaggerated sense of duty leads
many person to anxious, ceaseless
activity, to be constantly doing some
thing, over-punctual, never idle sec
ond of time, scorn to rest; such are in
unconscious nerve tension. They say
they have no time to rest, they have
so much to do, not thinking they are
rapidly uniting themselves for prob
ably what would have been their best
and greatest work in after years. Self
control of nerve force is the great les
son of health, and therefore of life it
self. To understand how to relax is
to understand how to strengthen
nerves. Hearty laughter is source
OF relaxation, as are also all high
thoughts, as those OF hope, beauty.

Two things are positively necessary
to the proper wintering of fowls in
confinement. One is proper and suffi.
cient food, and the other proper ven.
tilation.
Corn may be considered the staple
food, although variety of grain, as
wheat screenings, oats, buckwheat,
ETC., is highly relished.
Especially is cooked food, such as
turnips or potatoes, mashed with meal
and fed warm, advantageous on cold,
frosty mornings
Besides this, give some vegetable
food, as cabbage, turnips tops and
mangels, for which purpose supply
should have been laid in in the fall,
and if eggs are expected do not neglect
feeding some meat scraps or homes,
clam or oyster shells, broken up, for
eggshell material.
Ventilation Of the hen house, when
fowls are not allowed to run out, must
be given every day where necessary. 1t
is a wise precaution against many OF
the diseases fowls are heir to, yet care
must be taken not to have n draught
of wind upon the fowls, especially
when OF the perches.
1t is often the case that fowls are
overcrowded, even in winter, and tho
constant inhaling OF impurities in the
air makes the system more susceptible
to disease.--Poultryman
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1902-05-23

Within the last few years farmers
and poultrymen have had within their
reach appliances for slicing turnips,
carrots, potatoes, or even for cutting
cabbages. These contrivances cut the
roots to thin Slices and the fowls cas-
lily and readily pick them to pieces.
Such foods, when sprinkled with bran
or corn meal, make fine messes for the
fowls. Where the fowls are kept in
yards one of the most convenient i'm
plements for cleaning the yards, by
turning under the top soil, is a hand
plow. 1t is usually an attachment to
the ordinary hand wheel hoe, and
will be found very useful in yards
where an ordinary plow with horse
power cannot be used.-Farm and Fire.

"The incident on the hill was for

except the 1rishmen, who seldom lost
a thing of this kind from their men,
ories. Time wrought many changes.
Bob Watson was advanced until he
was given charge of a night express
between Chicago and the East. Con
ductor Thompson controlled the des
TIMES of the passengers on this same
train. One night they We're coming
into Chicago, with the moon shining
full and the face of the country almost
as clear as at MONDAY. Off to the
left was the schoolhouse, and to the
right, coming down the road over the
crossing, Were two children, boy and
girl, with tin dinner bucket swing
ing between them. Evidently they did
Iot see the express, and reached the
centre OF the track at the same instant
the engine struck the crossing. En-
glneer Watson threw on the air brakes,
blew the whistle, and the whole train
shuddered to a standstill. Watson
grabbed a flare and sprang past the
wide-eyed fireman out into the night.
From the coaches the white lights of
the brakemen dropped down, and the
blue lantern of the conductor waited
until the yellow flare of the conductor
came up to it. Then the conductor
and the engineer went back, looking
under every car the full length of the
train, and to the crossing; even on the
crossing there was nothing, no sign of
an accident, neither to the right nor to
the left.
$50 the train went ON.
"A month later the moon shone
again. Again Robert Watson's train
came to the crossing. Again he saw
the two children, the boy and the girl,
coming down the road to the right
with their dinner bucket between them.
