nate the large amount of poison that
collects in the system? Is not regulat-

system, and absolutely necessary to
the proper condition of health? If so,
why should it not be just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in

TO TAKE A POSITION IN NEW LONDON.
 A STORY WITH A MORAL.
 Arthur Brinton, for several years in the employ of A. H. McMahon, leaves, this week, to take a position in New London. He is son of Joseph Brin- ton, the veteran and popular piano tuner. Eighteen years ago, another son of MT Brinton, Charles, entered the employ of A. H. McMahon and was with him for long term of years. He was followed by two other sons of MT Brlnton and then came the last son, Arthur. MT Brinton says he can fur nish MT McMahon no more sons, but if he will be patient, his four young grandsons will be ready in a dozen years or so to wield the hammer and soldering tongs. This incident illus trates two things-Mr McMahon liked the stock, and second that MT McMa- hon was a good kind of an employer to work for.

 LEE STOCKHOLDERS NOT TO FIGHT
 EASTERN INDUSTRIAL co.
 It appears the Lee people have con- cluded not to fight the Eastern Indus trial people on their notes for the can- ming factory stock. The Pittsfeld Eagle of Saturday said: The executive committee of the Lee Canning con- pany met yesterday afternoon and voted to accept the new factory build ing. The committee, after 9 thorough inspection, decided that the structure was satisfactory. A meeting of share holders will be held in few days for the purpose of electing board of di- rectors and making preliminary ar engagements to apply for a charter. The collectors, representing the pro- moters of the three Berkshire enter prises, have about finished their work in Great Burlington and will arrive in Lee the first of the week. It is pos sible that some of the Lee stockholders will protest against making payments, but one of the interested men stated this afternoon that anything like or ganized opposition is net looked for and that the stock will be paid accord ing to agreement. As stated in The Eagle yesterday, Pittsfeld stockhold- CTS are prepared to fight the payment of stock which will be due as soon as the building here is accepted.

The natives of the upper Zambezi

ages of from ten to twelve years. The
only reason for following such an alb

so doing they initiate their oxen. which

It Is d common joke TO call inferior

ter of fact, some very good weeds" are
made from the leaves Of the sunfower.
These leaves can also be smoked In the
place of tobacco, forming quite passa-
BILE substitute.
The stalks and leaves make excellent
food for various animals, while the for
mer can also be employed as fuel. Sum
flower cake is made from the seeds OF
this useful plant after the oil has been
extracted, this oil being very nearly
equal to olive oil and used in cooking.
The seeds not only serve as food for
cattle; they are mashed and. kneaded
into bread by the poor peasants Of GER
tain parts of Russia, and they find it
very palatable.
Potash is obtained from the ash of
the stalks. The proportion is about
one-third of potash to the total ash
left after burning. A yellow dye is
made from the flower of the plant. The
fiber can be worked into silk mate

Nowton,a Blue.

It is well known that under the ae-
tlon of gravity the water composing
such a thin shell as soap bubble tends
to run down on all sides, so that the
walls Of the bubble grow thin at the
top and thicken toward the bottom.
After a time the bubble becomes 50
thin at the top that further flow Of wa
ter from this point can hardly take
place. and finally the bubble bursts.
But before this last stage is reached
degree of thinness in the walls of the
bubble is attained which causes It TO
glow with brilliant iridescent colors.
Newton noticed that on top of the thin
bubble illuminated by white sky light
a black spot is formed. With increase
of thickness downward from this point

Apothecaries were once In the habit
OF using red light as sign of their
trade. 1t so happened one night that 4
dl Jggist found himself without the
necessary red light. SO as n substitute
he placed bottle Of red liquid in the
window. with candle behind it. He
was so well pleased with the effect
that he placed another bottle of red
liquid in another window.
This sign made such a brave show
ing that an envious rival cast about
for means of improving the sign. He
hit upon the scheme of placing a bot
tie of yellow liquid by the side of the
red one and then surpassed his previ-
GUS efforts and carried all before him
by placing green bottle by the side
OF the yellow one. The three made
sign which caught the approval OF the
town, and all the druggists quickly fol-
lowed in the footsteps of their more
original rivals.
The bottles were later replaced by
the handsome colored vases which are
now such familiar sign all over. the

Bibles are said by detectives to hs
more rarely stolen than any other OBJ
jects. This is not because Bibles are
worthless to thief, but because few
criminals are sufficiently depraved to
steal the good book. A detective said
recently that in an important case
which he had followed up some years
ago a thief had entered the house,
stolen some valuable jewels and left
untouched a Bible bound in white
chicken skin and studded with pearls
The detective caught the thief, and the
man who had been robbed. dealer in
curios, visited his despoiler in Jail, took
an interest in him because he had not
taken the Bible and eventually reform
ed him and got him good job.

took that Bible it would do me harm
and if didn't take 1t it might do me
good 1 let it alone, and now, thank
heaven, I'm an honest and righteous
man."
The detective added that in another
case where thief had stolen Bible
the book had been returned. "Another

THE PLANET EARTH.
Hts Movements Around the sun ana
Upon It's own Axis.

upon It's OTTn AXIS.
The earth, considered as a planet,
occupies a favored rank in the solar
system. 1t pleased the all wise Gre
ator to assign its position among the
heavenly bodies where nearly all the
sister planets are visible to the naked
eye 1t Is situated next to Venus and
is the third planet from the sun. 1t
moves around the sun from west to
east in 365 days, ) hours. 4S minutes
and IS seconds and turns the same
way on its axis in % hours, SO min
utes and seconds.
That the earth. in common with an
the planets. revolves around the sun
as center is fact which rests upon
the elearest demonstrations of philoso-
ply. That it revolves. like them, upon
its own axis is a truth which every ris-
Ing and setting sun illustrates and
which very many phenomena concur
70 establish Either the earth moves
around its axis every day or the whole
universe moves around 1t in the same
time. There is no third opinion that
can be formed on this point Either
the earth must reyoIYe on its axis ey-
cry twenty-four hours to produce the
alternate succession Of day and night
or the sun, moon. planets, comets, fixed
stars and the whole frame OF the uni
verse itself must move around the
earth in the same time. To suppose
the latter case to be the fact would be
to cast a reflection on the wisdom of
the Supreme Architect, whose laws are
universal harmony. As well might the
beetle, that in a moment turns on it's
ball, imagine the heavens and the
earth had made a revolution in the
same instant.
The idea of the heavens revolving
about the earth is incumbered with in
Vulnerable difficulties We will men
fiOn only one. 1t is estimated on good
authority that there are visible by
means of glasses no less than 100000
900 stars, scattered at all possible
distances in the heavens above, beneath
and around US. Now, is it in the least
degree probable that the velocities of
all these bodies should be so regulated
that, though describing circles SO very
different in dimensions, they should
complete their revolutions In exactly
the same time?
In short, there Is no more reason to
suppose that the heavens reyo've
around the earth than there is to sup
pose that they revOIve around each Of
the other planets separately and at the
same time. since the same apparent
revolution is common to them all, for
they all appear to revolve upon their
axes in different periods. The rotation
of the earth determines the length of
the day and may be regarded as one of
the most Important elements in astro-
nOmical science. 1t serves as a univer-
sal measure of time and forms the
standard of comparison for the revoIu-
tons of the celestial bodies for all ages,
past and to come. Theory and obserya-
ton concur in proving that among the
Innumerable vicissitudes that prevail
throughout creation the period of the
earth's diurnal rotation is immutable.-
