Got Kiss and hsonev.

From st. Petersburg comes sto-
ry of how distress led to bcldness
and boldness to victory. A few days
ago a certain prosperous Russian
merchant was waiting for train at
railway station when young man
came up and, telling him he was in
desperate want, asked for money.
The merchant, being more liberal.
with humor than with cash, indi-
Gated a pretty girl who had just
come into the station. on the arm Of
general Of the Russian forces and
told the needy one that if he would
kiss her he would give him 5 rubles.
Whereupon the young fellow knelt
before the military man and told
him Of the merchants offer. The
general made the circumstances
known to the girl, and she, smiling
graciously, presented her cheek,
which, says the chronicle, the young
man, standing on tiptoe, gracefully
saluted. The Russian newspaper
which tells of the little incident
boasts proudly that in no country
but Russia could it have happened.

The Atlantic Ocean.

The area of the Atlantic is about
30,OOO,000 square miles, less than
half the area Of the Pacific and be-
tween one-sixth and one-seventh of
the total surface of the world. It
would form a circle 6,18O miles in
diameter, which is rather more than
double the distance from Liverpool
to New Y ork.
Its depth is much better known
than that Of the Pacific and aver
ages more thar 900 fathoms, prob
ably about 14,0O0 feet, or about
Q 2-3 miles. The height Of Mont
Blanc is about three miles.
The cubic contentg are therefore
nearly 3G,00G,QG1 cubic miles, so
that the Atlantic could be contain
ed bodily i'm the Facifh1 fh1uearly three
times. The number Of cubic feet is
liz followed by seventeen ciphers,
number that would be ticked off
by our million clocks In 37O,O0O
years. Its weight Ia 325, goo, ,OOO,-
100000 tons. and the number of
gallons in it is 73,O0O,O0O, 600, 900.
A sphere to hold the the Atlantic would
have to be 53311S miles in diameter.

Natures electricity is exempli.
lied by peculiar tree in the forests of
Central India, which has most curious
characteristics. The leaves of tho
tree are OF highly sensitive nature.
and so full Of electricity that whoever
touches one Of them receives an cleo
trio shock. 1t has very singular ef-
feet upon magnetic needle. and will
influence it at distance Of even sew
enty feet. Tho electrical strength of
the tree varies according to the time
ot DAY, 1T being strongest at mic. day
and weakest at midnight. In wet
weather its power disappears altogcth-
er. Birds never approach the tree,
nor have insects ever 3ccn seon upon
it.

over the right woman doesn't deserve
to have tho right woman be fool

irish Burial Places.

The Irish are very particular as
to where they will be buried. It
goes without saying that they want
to be inferred in consecrated
ground. But they also wish to be
laid with their own in the ancient
hallowed spot where their ancestors
for many generation have been
put to rest. Each family has its
burying place, and whenever mem
ber dies, unless it be beyond the
seas oratsome insuperable distance,
he is brought to be buried with his
airess.. Hence it is That that funeral pro-
cessions are oftentimes seen to wend
their slow way past many q way
side churchyard to some farof
burial ground, because it is there
that for many and many q genera
ton the forefathers of the deceased
have laid themselves down for their
last long sleep.-Donahoe's Maga-
zine.

THE MORNING NAP.
a Protest Against the Ancient Motion
OF Rising Early.

The time of rising in the morn
ing has not, in fact, kept step with
the progress of other events. The
old custom of early rising and
breakfasting by candlelight during
the season of short days still pre-
walls, although the need has largely
passed away. Forty years or SO ago
farm work began with the break Of
tie day, and laboring people wero
expected to be in shops and facto-
rles at 5 o'clock in the morning the
year round. The agitation for a
shorter day first reduced the hours
70 ten and later to nine and eight.
But it 3 doubtful if the hours given
to sleep have increased as much as
the hours of work have ceased. And
IN particular the time of rising is
still where it was when ten and
twelve hours of labor were demand
ed.
This is wrong, declares the Phila-
delphia Press. There is nothing
more conducive to health, good NOR
rus and good temper than a nap in
the morning. 1t rounds out the
nights sleep and imparts satisfac-
ton which is considerable factor
in the days work. There is nothing
like sleep to tone up tho nerves. 1t
is better than the best tonic, and
with the nerves in good condition
the whole man or woman is pre-
pared to meet the struggles and
competition that modern life brings.
5Sociologists also contend that if
people would sleep more there would
be less crime. Another argument in
favor Of longer hours Of rest is the
saving that would be made in light
and fuel. Less coal would be burned
and less gas or other illuminants
would be consumed. And this is m
argument which will appeal at the
present time to every housckeeper
when the necessity for economy is
being enforced SO sharply.
There are early closing move
ments. Why not q late rising move
ment? ALI methods of work and
business have been changed during
the last two generations, and they
are still changing. A man with the
help Of modern machinery accom-
plishes many times more in short
er time than his grandfather did.
Why, then, should he get up in the
morning at the same time his grand
father did and find his energies
used up before the noon hour? The
morning nap will cure this, and the
effort to establish it can be helped
along with clear conscience.

OCULAR DEFECTS.
mental and Physical Conditions Bred
by Neglect Of the Eyes.

Every observant person has rec
ognized the recent striking in
crease in the number Of people
wearing glasses, and, while this fact
can be considered sign of our ad-
yancing civilization, the question
may be asked, What will it lead to
and IS 1t a necessity? The answer
must be that while our environ
ment, our professions and trades,
compels a constantly increasing de-
mand upon one of the most delicate
and complex organs of our system
1t is necessary in order to preserve
the function Of the eyes in their
highest possible state that concert
ed action be taken to that end. Neg
iect of the eyes and injudicious use
OF glasses are great contributing fac
tors in the general deterioration
that is taking place in these organs.
Every oculist has seen case after
case of these various conditions
promptly relieved by the correction
of the ocular defect. He has seen
cases where the child pronounced
by the parents and teachers dull
and backward becomes tho brightest
in his class after wearing glasses
that give him normal vision without
the effort that has caused condi-
ton Of brain fag. He has seen
many nervous, weakened, i'll nour-
ished child become as robust and
healthy as his playmates after the
removal Of some eye strain.
The mechanism of the eye is per-
haps the most delicate system of
our entire body. For the perfect
performance of its function every
part must work in perfect harmony.
10 secure this harmony both the
refraction and the muscular balance
OF the eyes must be perfect. 1t is
q fact that an absolutely emmctrop-
lc or normal eye is but rarely found.

Pigeons Do Not Fly by sraht.

The numerous experiments made
by balloonists have proved that
pigeons are incapable Of flying at
any great height. Birds thrown out
at 5000 meters fell like dead, and
even at the moderate, height of 800
meters pigeons. liberated BY tHe'bal-
loonist CASTOR Tissandier approach
ed the earth in u spiral course. It
3 evident hence that they are not
guided wholly by sight. To bring
point 800 miles distant within the
range Of vision it would be neces-
sary to ascend nearly 10000 meters.
The carrier pigeon, starting on such
q journey, must consequently start
with faith in the unseen.
