One morning as the late Henry

of New York he saw teamster whip
ping balky horse.
"Stop that, you brute" he exclaim-
ed, cor I'll have you locked up inside
of FIVE minutes Why don't you try
kindness on the animal ? Don't you
suppose horse can be reached by a
kind word, the same as human be.

the teamster, quickwitted Irishman
who, with all his faults Of temper, was
not such bad man at heart "an' if
a horse has feelin's sor, don't ye
s'pose his dhriver has, too Thry a

The stern face of Mr.. Bergh re-
laxed into a smile, and in the better
understanding that followed the horse
forgot that it was baking, and started
off on a trot.

Water Resources of the Potomac Basin.
No drainage basin in the East is Of

No drainage basin in the East is Of
greater Importance or interest from
the point of view of the engineer aud
the sanitsrisn than that Of the Poto-
mac river. and for this reason special
value is attached to comprehensive
report on the physical and hydro.
graphic features of THE area, now be.
ing prepared for publication by the
United States Geological Survey.
In this report will be discussed the
pollution BY sewage and manufactur.
ing plants, the quantity Of water
flowing in the streams, the physical
development of the basin, and the
forestation.
A sanitary survey has been made
of the entire basin, and the paper
will contain a section on the pollution
caused by the discharge of sewage or
manufacturing refuse into the streams
and its effect upon the health of COM
munities affected.
The effect Of waste material from
the industrial plants in the BASIN
as tanneries, pulp mills, woolen mills.
and distilleries-will be described in
detail, and there will be discussion
OF the epidemics Of typhoid fever that
have occurred at various points.
The report will include also all
available information regarding the
quantity of water flowing in the
streams. For some years the United
States Geological Survey has made
measurements Of flow Of most of the
important streams in the basin. The
records of flow will be of great value
in connection with the development
of power plants, as they will show in
concise form the amount of water
that is likely to be available.

COURAGE.

That man is brave, no one denies.
Who in the face Of danger flies
Nor feels its presence near.
But he is braver. who doth feel
The chill that makes the blood CONCEAL,
And overcomes his fear.
And he is brave who. day by day.
Meets obstacles tha: block the way.
But yields not to despond:
Who halfway up the toilsome road
Begins to stagger meath his load,
And dares to glance beyond.
Unto the hero class belong
Those men who fear to do the wrong.
The bravest of mankind
Are they who, trembling on the verge
Where this life and another merge.
Fear not to look behind.
