MARRIAGE AND LONG LIFE.
People Joined in Matrimony Live
 Longer Than Those Single.

St, Louis Republic.
 Scientific research justifes the rule, Marry and live to ripe old age. AIter d itha experience with mortality tables, Frederick l.. Hoffman, a writer upon tn- surance subjects, demonstrates the ln- tiuence of marriage on longevity. Inter. esting figures snow that the mortality Of married males has been considerably be- low the mortality of single males at all ages, the difference being most notice. able between the age periods or 4o ana "A years Between those ages, roughly speaking three single men die to two married ones, The rate of females gives a result favorable to married women. AL though their death rate Is greater than that of single women in the period be- tween 15 and Il years, after that period the proportions arc reversed in favor or married women.
 In both sexes below the age of 40 the deaths among married persons. due to certain specific causes. are slightly Iii excess of deaths among single persons The causes are cancer, tumor nervous diseases. circulatory. digestive and uri-
 ton among single persons are preponder- atingiy greater than those among the married. Above the age of 45 the mor- talty of the married in both sexes, from all causes, Is much less than that of sim
 gle persons. MT. Hoffman unhesitatingly concludes that marriage makes for long hfe. Undoubtedly many actors other than the fact of marriage contribute to decide the question of longevity. The questions of regular living and settled habit must be considered as well as that of the human being fulfilling his natural
 destiny and following natural laws

Owing to the diversified forma ton of the country, and it's varied elevation com pretending every degree of latitude, Ven- ezuela is particularly blessed with an in finite variety of plant life. This is most strtktngly true, when the traveller can, within an hour, pass from the burning regions of the palms and cocoanut to the temperate elevation of the oak and hickory, while, in a few hours more climb ing, he has lstill in view of the tropical valleys) reached region white with ev-

 Such wonderful eontrarieties of climate naturally furnish conditions for some of the raFsst and quaintest forms of plant growth.
 At tn eoutset 1t may be asserted that the strange things connected with many ~0f the plants of the tropics makes 1t ut fehiy impossible to draw the dividing line between animal and plant life. especially 1n their lower organic forms. Science has long ago given up the problem. and it remains one of the unsolved things of the two kingdoms.
 Away down in the depths of existence and among the groundlings of life. the Identity of living things becomes of nature that Is worse than confusing, which renders 1t a futile task to attempt to separate the two worlds of life,
 Certainly shape and form can't deter mine the question, es witness the sponges, eea-anemones and sea-squirts. which arc true animals, but so plant-like that they are mistaken by seaside visitors for plants. On the other hs nd, we have hum drede of the lower plants. which show none of the ordinary features of plant life, as they possess neither roots. stems. leaves nor flowers.
 The power of movement can't settle the question. for all the animals above men 4laned are rooted and fixed. while many true plants of lower grades. are never that swarms on ponds. in certain lau- <uaes. are free as animals. while others. like the seaweed, swim about freely.
 Nor can the microscope draw any boundary line between plants and ani- Ynals, for 1t teaches that the tissues of unes as Is also that wonderful living substance. the protoplasm. Every animal and every plant begin existence as mere speck of this living jelly. So, of ufe's beginnings, the microscope is fu- file. as a scientific touch-stone for dis knwuishing between the two families.
 Nor can the subtitle power of the chem fist and chemical analysis determine the dividing point of the plant and animal family. but rather complfcates the biole- gfHk.

THE VICES OF CULTURE.
Some False Ideals Set Up by Men Who
Ought to Know Better-Buying
Up LegislatiOn.


''Vice will never cease" says Prof.
William James Every level of culture
breeds its own peculiar brand of vice
rs one soil breeds sugar and another
cranberries. If we were asked the dis
agreeable question, What are the bosom
vices of the level of culture which our
land and day have reached? we would
be forced, think, to give the still more
disagreeable answer that they are swim
ding and adroitness, and the indulg-
ing of swindling and adroitness and
cant, and sympathy with cant-natural
fruits of that extraordinary idealization
of success in the mere outward sense
Of getting there on as big scale as we
can, which characterizes the present gen.
Grafton"
The gifted and glamour that sur
rounds the educated men who succeed y
who .'get there" who manage large af-
fairs, direct corporations and their COM
binations, devise fiotations, promo
tons, stock deals, hide from the ordi-
nary vision the fundamental vice, and
even when exposed, disposes to con-
donation. Public opinion visits its Sc
verest censure on the mere burglar and
pickpocket who only does at his ''level
of culture what the financier does at
his, and laments the ignorance, the lack
of education in which such viciousness
spawns. Public opinion denounces the
man charged with public trust who be-
trays it; the legislator, of great or small
degree, who sells legislation, and, when
1t catches him, sends him to wear stripes.
But how rarely, says the st. Paul Dis
patch, Is it that the men of education,
college men, who were the bribers OF
the convict, are caught and punished.
The ignorant level has its vices in plen-
ty, but they are vulgar ones, gratifying
physical desires for the most part. One
has to get up to the higher level Of Gull
ture to reach the plane where swindling
is fine art, with college-trained brains
guiding operations.
We have the college man, the student,
in politics, also, where he uses his &C
quirement to further schemes by which

byists negotiating with uneducated leg
islators for their votes, and as legisla-
tors selling their own. We have them

draped across the shoulders and mingled
with some beautiful old Brussels point,
held in place by wonderful old enamel

is turned outwards all down the front

trimming on the quaint Japanese

Origin of wooIwich Arsenal.

Woolwich arsenal is said to owe its
existence to an explosion. According
to the story the surveyor general gave
orders that some old French guns,
captured by the duke of Marlborough,
should be recast into English guns at
Moorfields. A young Swiss student,
Andrew Schalch, who was travelling in
search of scientific knowledge, hap
pened to be present and noted that the
molds to receive the molten metal
were not dry. He spoke to the au-
thorities of the danger, but the metal
was run and the generation of steam
in the damp mold caused an explo-
sion, attended with loss of life
Schlach was subsequently summoned
to the ordnance Office, his abilities
tested, and he was then requested to
select site for new foundry. His
choice fell on Woolwich, where he was
superintendent of the arsenal for
many years.-London Daily Chronicle.

Surprise to England.

Queen Elizabeth's house-as it is
called-Worcester, is an object of great
interest to visitors. One reason for
this is because Queen Bess is reported
to have stayed there when on a visit
to the city.
The second reason is, comparative
ly speaking, quite modern. Some Is
or Is years ago, the city council found
it necessary to make certain street al
terations. The house was very much
in the way, but the good people OF
Worcester would not suffer the house
breakers to demolish the premises.
Accordingly it was decided to make
an attempt to move the house in its
entirety several yards away. Excava-
tons were commenced, the ground was
tunneled, and by means of an immense
crane and other appliances the struc-
ture was safely removed.
The removal was witnessed by a
large gathering of citizens, charge
being made to watch the novel feat

If PRAYERS AVAIL.

If no portraits e'er were painted,
And If Photographic art
Were as yet all undiscovered,
Still deep craven on my heart
Would 1 bear your image ever
Truer than e'er brush could linn,
Bear it as | eer shall bear 1t
Till the sun and stars grow dim!
What could artist hope to render
OF the beauty that is thine!
He might paint each feature truly,
Catch the evanescent shine
OF some one mood in your true eyes;
But through all life's solitudes
Renders my heart up an image
OF you in a thousand moods!
Now see you sweet before me
In your graduating gown;
Now upon the cliffs high summit
With your hair windblown and down;
Now see you in the byway
Where the oxeyed daisies grew;
Glad exultant loving, tender.
Thoughtful, joyous, leal and true!
Ev'ry wee trick of expression,
Ev'ry charm of face and form,
Ey'ry coil of spun-gold tresses,
Etched in shadows umber-warm!
Through the long years of my living
| shall treasure, love, them yet!
Why, I'm half afraid of dying
Lest in death 1 might forget!
So, though We shall go asunder
Through the years we both shall tell.
Know your image floats before me!
Know I'll love you long and well!
And if prayers may ward off evil.
Separate the good from bad,
Know your path shall be all roses
Know your days shall all be glad!
