The work of the heart Is the circu-
iation of the life giving blood through
out the body. With each stroke or
beat of the heart it projects something
like six ounces of blood into the bod
lily conduits, throwing it for distance
of nine feet. That it does slxtynine
times a minute, 4,140 times each hour,
99,3G0 times in "A day 36,266, HOO times
In a year and 2,540, 337 ,120 times in a
lifetime of seventy years. The blood
is propelled by the heart nine feet each
beat, POI yards each minute, seven
miles an hour, 100 miles in a day, 61,S17
miles in year and 1880, 120 miles in
the seventy years,
The total force eXerted by the heart
every twenty-four hours has been cal
culated to be equal to 124 foot tons
that Is, if the whole force expended
by the heart in twenty-four hours were
gathered into one huge stroke such a
power would lift 124 tons one foot off
the ground. This being the daily
force, that exerted in year would be
equal to 1920 foot tons and that in a
lifetime of seventy years 3,1IO,3O3
Such is the enormous amount of work
performed by the human heart, which
only weighs eleven ounces and Is about

1t has been said of the jackie sailor
boy that he is so passionately fond of
pets he must have something to love,
If 1t is "only a cockroach in 'baccy
box" This statement was founded on
fact, for one of the most remarkable
pets of an English ship was a mon
strous cockroach. He was four inches
long and one inch broad.
One of the sailors had tanned him
and built for him a cage with little
kennel in the corner of it. This In
sect prodigy learned to recognize his
masters voice, and when he heard
him call would hurry out from his
kennel in response.
Among other odd pets that have been
beloved by English sailors was a seal,
who had a tank residence on board
and a daily round of pleasure and
duty, his pleasure seven meals a day,
his duty a bath after each meal. An
other was a deer, who would take a
Quid of tobacco with SO much delight
that the fellow feeling aroused by his
appreciative taste made him a general
fayorite

Judge Pennypacker was once asked
by his brother Harry during a session
of court for the loan of So Harry
walked to the desk and whispered the
request in the judges ear. The latter
looking down over the top of his
glasses without the suggestion of a
smile, said loud enough to be heard
throughout the room:
Put your application in writing and
present 1t to the court In proper man
ner."
Mr.. Pennypacker, thinking the judges
insistence upon regularity to be merely
regard for the dignity of the court,
wrote out the request and handed it to
the clerk of the court, who in turn
passed it to the bench. The Judge read
1t quietly and seriously and then In

to say:
