Ruthless Time.

Time hath. my lord, wallet at his back.
Wherein he puts aims for oblivion.
great sized monster of ingratitudeS: :
Those scraps are good deeds past: which
are deVour
AS fast as they are made forgot as soon
AS done; perseverance. dear my lord,
Keeps honor bright; to have done is to
hang
Quite out of fashion like a rusty mail
In monumental mockery. Take tn instant
way.
For honor travels in straight so mar
row,
Where one but goes abreast; keep, then,
the path:
For emulation hath thousand sons
That one by one pursue; ii you give way.
Or hedge aside from the direct forthright.
Like to an enter'd tide they all rush by
And leave you hindmost;
or like a gallant horse fallen in first
rank,
Lie there for pavement to the abiect rear.
Oerrun and trampled on.

Zulu Policemen.

Amongst all the South African ma
tive races there are none better quail
fed to act as guardians of the law
than the Zulus. They are the aristo-
Gratis of Africa, dignified, honorable
and trustworthy to degree. They
are far finer men physically than the
ordinary kaffirs, and this is an addi-
tional qualification as regards their
courage, that was sufficiently shown
in their battles with British troops in
the old days. Imitation, it IS said is
the sincerest tlattery, and this is prob.
ably why natives of inferior races
often try to pass themselves off as
Zulus, although they seldom succeed
in securing the distinction of enter.
ing the Zulu police force.

A patch of sky in view.
These lines, in very pity penned
Are meant for such as you.

OF quaint Queen Anne design,
And there are few that envy not
This country house of mine.
Now days that longest on us smile
Are filed with flowers and song;
Come out and visit me awhile,
And fetch your wife along.
While bird on bough each brother grests.
This Wonder-sight We'll see
a thousand blooms fling out their sweEtS
To WOO the wandering bee.
In hammock swung well gently ride.
And read idly dream,
In bosky little nook beside
\ swift and crystal stream.
Here sunbeams slant through leafy riffs
And gild the earth below.
Where apple blossoms fall in drifts
Sweet summers scented snow
Come out. If healthy you would be
Let my request prevail.
There's neat cottage. close by me,
That's luckily for sale

An orchard filed with fruit
In tact. I'd like to sell you mine,
If that one doesn't suit.

Worms in Millions.

The sciaras. of the genus tipulx
tiny, wormlike creatures which are
found in the forests of Norway and
Hungary during the month of July or
early in August gather in huge num-
bers preparatory to migrating in
search of food or for change of CON

Journey they stick themselves together

and form "A huge serpentlike mass,

Beacons Line the Coast.

That the United States govern
ment has been mindful of the welfare
of people who go down to the sea in
ships is shown by the fact that there
are 5000 burning lights and signals
stretched along the American coasts,
forming perfect link, so that the
navigator never need be beyond sight
of one of the bcacons. One thousand
of these are located on the Atlantic
coast, 1900 are scattered along the
rivers and inland waterways, 500 on
the great lakes and 200 on the Pacific
coast. Of the grand total, including
lighthouses of different classes, buoys,
beacons and danger signals, 5000 are
lighted. giving forth their warnings
at night time. OF these a score or
more throw beam of 100000 candle

HOLY LAND NOT LARGE.
Great Events That Have Transpired
in Small Space.

When one thinks of the great
events that have taken place in the
Holy Land. the multitude of cities,
villages and towns, the countless mil
lions who have been born there and
whose bones now lie in its rock-ribbed
hills, the small dimensions of Pales-
tine are almost startling. West of the
Jordan, where most OF the historic
events took place, there are only g.
800 square miles. including all the
geographical divisions now called Pal
estine; including the land both east
and west of the Jordan, the total area
is 9,S40 square miles. The length of
Palestine from north to south is about
$50 miles. 1t varies in breadth from
twenty-three to eighty miles.

Fan Making in Early England.

During the time of Charles II fan
making was carried on extensively in
England, and was a very lucrative
business, but soon some enterprising
individual began importing them from
India, which resulted in a petition be-
against importation. The petition
however was not wholly successful,
for fan importing was not stopped, al
though duty was imposed which sue
ceeded in protecting home industry
and in satisfying the manufacturers.

BEAUTY IN NATIONAL PARK.
There Is a Wealth of CoIorins to Be
Found in the Yellowstone

Nature is most exquisite colorist
along the crested rims and overflow
channels of warm spring pools. Tour
lists are seldom aware that these har-
monious and brilliant tints owe their
origin mainly to plant life. They are
usually told by so-called guides that
the colors are due to mineral mat
ter. which tends to enhance their hor-
ror OF underground waters. Algae
flourish equally well in the waters of
all geyser basins and on the ter
races of Mammoth Hot Springs. Wa
ter boils on the plateau at 1873 degree
Fahrenheit and rudimentary organ
isms appear at about 1856 degrees Fab
renheit, although no definite line can
be drawn beyond which all life ceases.
Wherever these boiling waters cool
to the latter temperature, algous
growths appear, and by the lowering
of the temperature on exposure to
air still more Lighly organized forms
gradually come in. 1t is said that at
about 140 degrees the conditions are
favorable for the rapid growth of sew
eral species. The development Of
plant life at such excessive tempera-
lures and on scale of such magni-
tude seems marvellous thing. No
where else can this be seen as well as
in the Yellowstone park-Scribner'

HOT SPRINGS OF MONGOLIA.
Luxurious Surroundings for Bathing
Are Not Demanded.

A traveller in Mongolia writes:
There are some hot springs by the
road about twenty miles north Of
Chingpeng. The place is named Tang
shan. The arrangements for those
anxious to benefit by their healing
properties are very primitive. A row
of twenty or thirty wooden boxes the
size of an ordinary packing case are
ranged beside the road. In these sit
bathers of every age and both sexes,
with their heads protruding. Attend
ants with buckets continuously refill
the boxes from the springs. For less
luxurious bathers there is accommo-
dation in a pool which has been dag
out close by. In this they squat,
scooping up the water and pouring it
over their heads with brass basins. 1t
is curious to reflect that establish
ments like Homburg and Aix-lns-
Bains have had their origin in such
beginnings

WANTED NO LIME IN SHOES.
Wealthy Contractor Did Not Want the
Salesman to Give Him Away.

There is rich contractor living
out in Germantown about whom
many amusing stories are told. For
years he has purchased his shoes at
the one place. little shop on Main
street, and thither he repaired the
other day and was waited on by a
new clerk, who didn't know him. The
new clerk, sizing the customer up as
laboring man, tried on pair OF
cheap brogans, which suited the con-
tractor, except that he thought them
a trifle hard to pull on.
'Ill fix that all right" said the
clerk. and he busted little powder
in each shoe. Much to his surprise
the customer grew livid with rage.
What dye name by insultin' me
that way?". he demanded. Just then
the proprietor came in and inquired
as to the trouble.
"The young dude is afther putin
chloride O. lime in me shoes." ex-
claimed the irate contractor. "'Tis
an insult"
The proprietor explained that the
supposed chloride of lime was merely
harmless powder to make the shoe
go on with greater comfort, and the
old man was satisfied ed.-Philadelpllia

Cause of Leprosy.

Leprosy has been investigated by
Jonathan Hutchinson, the great Eng
lish pathologist, in all parts of the globe
where it prevails. He finds nothing to
justify the idea of contagion, as at
tendants in lepor hospitals do not CON
tract the disease, nothing like an cpl
demic is ever known, and even trans
mission from husband to wife is rare.
He attributes the disease to decayed
or badly cured fish-not to any exces-
sive use of fish in good condition.
