Science is penetrating beyond the
horizon line commonly held to limit
it. As knowledge advances the hori-
zon line recedes. The progress in
ethereal physics has been of late so
marked that it may reasonably be
believed to hold the key which will
unlock many Of the problems Of
physical science. Allgthe phenome-
ma of light, heat and electricity have
their origin in the etheT.-MemFhis

For uprIaht Writing.

A league has been formed in Paris
for upright writing. It takes as its
motto a phrase from George Sand,
upright writing on horizontal pa
per with the body held straight. "
The league crusades against the
English and American style of writ
ing, slanting and angular, which, it
says, is no longer really taught in
England and America. Slanting
writing is said to cause short sight,
''scholiosis" and many other optical
troubles.

Hand picking of tobacco worms is a
very tedious process. One hand can
with difficulty work and sucker a half
an acre a day when the worms are at
all abundant. Every large worm left
will destroy the best part Of full
grown leaf in q week. This work re-
qulres diligence, regularity and persist
eDce Every leaf eaten in part by the
worm is a loss both to weight and
quality. A drove of turkeys If kept In
q tobacco field will be valuable ally
In destroying the worms. They 5000
learn to find them. and 1t is almost In.
credible how many worms will be de-
stroyed In a day by large drove Of
turkeys. who seem to feed upon them
with relish.-Home and Farm.

Pretty Thin Coffee.

During one OF George Graham Vests
campaign tours In the early nlneties 1t
was necessary for him to sojourn over
night In the town of St. Charles The
best hostelry the place afforded was
poor enough, and at breakfast Vest
was especially put out by the stuff that
was placed before him for coffee. After
having sampled the beverage Vest, with
a frown, called for the proprietor.
When that individual appeared the
senator asked, with wave Of his hand
toward the offending liquid smoking
innocently before him, "Sir, what Is
this stuffY Coffee" meekly replied
the proprietor, somewhat taken aback.
"Coffeew repeated Vest In fine scorn.
"My friend, could insert coffee bean
In my mouth, dive into the Missouri
river swim to the town Of Alton, ILL.,,
and I'll guarantee that one could bail
up much better coffee than this, sir,
over the entire route!'

How to Detect Base Coin.

Several cases of making and clrculat-
ing counterfeit coin have been heard
at the central criminal court during
the last few days, and at the conclusion
of one of the cases the foreman Of the
jury asked the authorities If they would
take suggestion from twelve business
men who during the year had to deal
with considerable sums ia silver coin.
There was, he said, most simple test
Tor the detection of base coin. 1t was
to sharply cut the milled edge of a good
coin against the milled edge Of the
suspected coin. If spurious the metal
would almost Immediately begin to
shave off. After making a personal test
the common sergeant said he quite
agreed with the suggestion Of the jury
az to the usefulness Of the test and
said fe ought to be made known.-Lon-

Bearing Another,s Harden.

That 1t is not impossible to ring a
new change on woman's aversion to
telling her correct age has been proved
by the rector Of a New York church.
He does not appear to be more than
fifty years old, but declared 10 an In
curing parishloner that he was seven
ty-five and added, II shall be seventy
seven my next birthday"
1.-THE other evening" he explained,
my wife and l computed that our
combined ages foot up to hundred
years. Now, Of course, no lady is ever
over twenty-five years old, so to keep
peace in the family suppose I must
say I'm seventy-five."
