and comes forth with an additional So
briquet which makes it almost unrec-
ognizable to it's old acquaintance. If
the edible fruit"-as the dictionaries
call it-had ever done anything to be
ashamed Of, the public might under
stand, but as things are the eccentrici-
ties of peanut nomenclature are abso-
lutely astonishing.
In Virginia we designate our little
friend principally as the peanut, but
quite often we likewise allude to him as
'groundpea" and occasionally as a
"goober." Over in England they call
the same fruit groundnut, while it Is
variously known elsewhere as earth
nut" manila nut" ''jurnut' and "pin-
dar." The scientific patronymic, as we
understood it, is Arachis pypogaea, and
the family belongs to the genus of
leguminous plants.
But, be it's name what it may, a pea
nut is a peanut the world over, so far
as it's virtues go, and few are the hui
man palates which decline to receive
an introduction to it.

In No Danger.

Family tradition has handed down
an incident, which the New York
Times repeats, of a gentleman who is
now a grandfather. All his life he has
been noted among his many friends
and acquaintance for marked decision
of character.
When he was two or three years old
he was taken very ILL., and his family
in alarm sent for the village doctor.
The doctor came and prepared a pow
erful dose, after the custom of those
days, which the little sufferer was
forced to take in spite Of much kick
ing and squalling.
The next day the doctor came again,
and prepared a second cup of the med
icine, which he placed before the fire
place TO warm.
The baby watched the proceedings
intently up to this point; then he sud-
denly slid from his mothers lap, and
todd1ing unsteadily to the fireplace,
kicked the cup under the backlog.
"Confound his impudencew said the
doctor. Hell i've"

With the help of electricity in its SIM
plest form a great many tricks and en-
tertaining feats can be performed, such
as the following: Get plain sheet OF
glass about twelve inches long by eight
wide and insert it between two vol
umes, as shown in illustration. The
di-tance Of the glass from the table
should be about three inches. With the
help of scissors cut a number Of small
figures, such as men, women, clowns.
animals, ETC., not higher than IA
inches, out Of different colored paper.
Lay the little figures fat in line on
the table underneath the glass. Make
a sort of ball of wooden, or, better yet,
silk cloth, warm it little and rub the
surface Of the glass with it. You will
notice Immediately how the electricity
obtained by this process enlivens the
little paper figures. How they stand
up and jump to the glass ceiling Of their
little ballroom, to be repulsed and fall
back, only to renew their dance. II
you stop rubbing the funny actions OF
the figures are continued for awhile.
When the dance is ended the touch Of
the hand on the glass is sufficient to en-
liven the figures again.

appropriation for a single year, but
this measure appropriates the proceeds
from the sale of the public lands in Is
States and Territories for all time
to be devoted to works of Irrigation.
Further it acts automatically and will
require no further legislation. The en-
actment of the bill means that the vast
Great American Desert is to be trans
formed into fertile soil to provide
homes for additional millions Of Amer
lean citizens, and will yield products
Of untold wealth.
In short, the bill provides that the
receipts from the sale Of public lands
shall be set apart in the treasury in a
fund to be known as the arid land re-
clamation fund. This income com
prises the proceeds from the sales Of
mining and mineral lands, timber
lands, stone lands, as well as arid
lands, and aggregate now about 3d.
100000 year. The money Is to be
placed in the treasury every year and
expended by the Secretary Of the In
terror in the construction Of irrigation
works necessary to make the waters
available for settlers, authority being
given the Secretary to make contracts
only when money necessary for each
particular section Of a contemplated
project is in the fund.
Congressman Francis G. Newlands,
of Nevada, introduced this bill, and
fought for it's passage to the end. He
thus gained for himself the title \of
of Father of Irrigation. Mr.. Newlands
is a man of brilliant parts and is &C
counted the intellectual superior OF
Senators Stewart and Jones, the lat
ter of whom he will succeed in the
Senate when his term expires. New
lands Is "a years old. He graduated
from Yale and was admitted to the
bar in Washington. He went to San
Francisco to practice law and remained
there until 1886, when he became trus-
tee of the estate Of William Sharon,
formerly United States Senator from
Nevada. He removed to that State
and in 1888 became a citizen. Four
years later he was elected to Congress,
where he has since remained.

ROBERT DE IA SALE.

He Was the First Navigator of the
Great Lakes.
On May Oath, at La Sale, five miles
east Of Niagara, was unveiled a statue
to Robert Cavelier de La Sale, the first
navigator Of the Great Lakes. The
tonnage between Duluth and Buffalo
and the intervening cities Is now great
er than that on any other waters ex-
cept those of the North Atlantic Ocean.
1t is interesting to review the history
Of the first vessel built on the inland
seas. The Detroit Free Press gives
this account:
On November IS, 1878, La Motto
Hennepin and fourteen others started
from Fort Frontenac in a ten-ton
brigantine for Niagara, and on Deem
Der 9th rounded the point now known
as Fort Niagara, and anchored at the
mouth Of the Niagara river.
La Sale had left Fort Frontenac
some time after La Notes departure,
intending to go to the site Of the fort
he projected at the mouth Of the
Niagara. He narrowly escaped being
shipwrecked and landed at the mouth
of the Genesee river. He visited the
chief Seneca village, met the chiefs,
and obtained their consent to the build
ing Of a vessel above the Niagara
cataract, and the establishing Of for
tilted warehouse at the mouth Of the
river.
He Immediately set to work to build
the vessel. All the tools, rope and 9th
err materials were carried across the
neck of land between Lewiston, on the
lower river, and the point selected by
La Sale above the falls.
La Sale remained with the men I'M
til he saw the keel laid, and then he
led the other men to the mouth of the
river to take advantage Of the permit
Of the Indians to erect a fortified ware
house. This was afterwards destroyed
by fire.
La Sale arrived in Niagara again in
August, 1879, only to find that his
creditors and enemies had well-nigh
ruined him. However, his boat, the
Griffin, was ready to sail, and in the
proceeds of trading voyage he sought
financial aid. In order not to de-
Law this enterprise, he abandoned
everything else and it was under these
conditions, urged forward by his pre-
vious reverses, that La Sale set sail

The late Dean Hoffman, OF the Gen
eral Theological Seminary of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church, had large
fortune and was proportionately great
gtver. The aggregate of his benefac-
tions no one knew but himself, and he
would not betray the secret The es-
timated total, according to a press dis
patch, is more than million dollars.
Publicity is a wholesome stimulus to
giving. A liberal example bears fruit
in more generosity. But there are cases
Of such nature that the chief aim
would almost be defeated were the
names of the recipients known or the
objects openly designated. The dean
seems to have appreciated the fact that
in some circumstances it is best that

In the old proverb "all work and no
play" was bad for Jack. Two force
full men, one in America and one in
Africa, have put the case differently.
The man in Africa said he decided ''to
stop working and begin to think" He
thought to such purpose that when he
died the world was divided between
calling him great statesman or an
INSCRIPTIONS buccaneer. The Ameri-
can has said in recent book, at is a
great mistake to think that the man
who works all the time wins in the
race" 1t seems to be agreed that
work and play and thought constitute
the trinity which leads to success.

A county superintendent of schools in
Illinois lately organized and conducted
an excursion for farmers and their fam
flies to the Agricultural College Of the
State. A party of nearly three hundred
persons was gathered, nearly one-half
of them boys. The visitors were en-
abled to see for themselves the fine
specimens of stock, and how they are
kept, the experiments in fertilization,
cultivation, and the hundred and one
other things which make the agricul-
tural colleges so valuable to the coun-
try; and In the department of domes
tic economy the farmers wives had op-
portunity to see the best methods of
the work which most interests them
The plan Is feasible in any county of
any State, and deserves to be copied.

The German Empire is a federation of
