Strength of the Open Sky.

"What great deed was ever done ia
doOrs?" Whites Emerson Hough in the
Reader. What great thing of the
earth in art, in science, in romance,
was ever conceived and brought forth
within walls? Pathos grows there. and
small tragedy and bitterness and pes
simism, but not great tragedy, nor the
vast and useful pesslMism which up
lifts human nature and humanity.
The joyous. hopeful, optimistic
things, the large and cheerful motives
are found beneath the sky. The In
dians say that the babe born in the
wind will be chief, and that might we'll
be so. What strong blood ever grew
indoors? What great drama of the
ages was ever played there? What
duel on the stair ever equaled the bat
tie unuer the trees?
Science may delve, lamp-wise, but
what great things, even Of science.
came wholly from within walls? Elec-
tricity, navigation by the stars-the
things which have really conquered the
world-did these appear to man as he
studied at some table side? No. The
great and sweet things of knowledge
came from the naked stars. Guilty
and troublous wisdom may have hOus-
ing, concealment, and so make a con-
fession that it is evil, but before guilty
Eden knowledge was out Of DOORS"

, Leather Breechea.

A hundred and fifty years ago the
farm hands and house servants Of
England were clothed In leather. A
good pair Of leather breeches was said
to pass from father to son as an heir
loom. Then a boy went to school as
well protected as an armored cruiser.
The author of "Didisburye in the As"
offers some observations upon these
articles Of common wear: The test Of
a good pair was to try If they would
stand upright of themselves when no.
body was in them. If they would do
so they were good,. strong stuff and
likely to last for many years. My
father remembered a prentice lad com
Ing to his father, whose fond mother
had provided him with such a pair,
and they were the means Of "vast
Of fun" in a game that is unknown in
these days-that is, for the boys to set
the breeches upright and then jump
into them without touching them with
the hands. 1t was probably a pair of
such leather breeches that the Windsor
boy was wearing when George III.
asked him if he did not know that the
man before him was the king.
EYES," said the boy. -
'Then why don't you go on your
knees, and you might kiss the kings
hand" said the king.
Because I'd spoil my-4hreeches.

Men, women and Fact.

Tact has always been considered the
peculiar attribute OF woman. with
q woman's tact" is one Of the stock
phrases of the novelist. But writer
in one of the American magazines
and his view is upheld by an English
magazine which quotes him-upsets
this tradition by declaring that men
are more often tactful than women.
Men, it is submitted, are swift to
know when to speak and when not to
speak-when it is wise to withhold
even look and that Is why medi-
ocre man will succeed when even a
clever woman will fail, why men are
greater in diplomacy, In all things that
require fnesse. Still it is a question
whether men really succeed better in
diplomacy. What about the woman
who is the power behind the throne?"

Haeckel VISITING Darwin.

When the carriage drew up before
Darwin's house, with its ivy and
shadowy elms, the great scientist step
ped out Of the shade of the creeper
covered porch to meet me. He had a
tall and venerable appearance, with
the broad shoulders of an Atlas that
bore world of thought; q Jove-like
forehead as we see in Goethe, with a
lofty and broad vault deeply furrowed
by the plow of intellectual work. The
tender and friendly eyes were over
shadowed by the great roof of the
prominent brows. The gentle mouth
was framed in long silyery white
beard. The noble expression of the
whole face, the easy and soft voice.
the slow and careful pronunciation,
the natural and simple tenor of his
conversation, took my heart by storm
In the first hour that we talked to-
gether, just as his great work had
taken my intelligence by storm at the
first reading. seemed to have before
me venerable sage of ancient Greece,
a Socrates or an Aristotle.-Describe

Microscopic Writing.

Thackeray could write the Lords
Prayer on sixpence. which is the
size Of dime, but it is now possible
to write the prayer on a surface so
small that one grain of sand would
hide it completely. Microscopists sell
copies Of the Lords Prayer written in
circle only the tive-hundredth part
Of an inch in diameter. To read the
prayer it is necessary to use lens
magnifying 500 times. Writing so In.
credibly small is accomplished by
means Of levers six feet long. These
levers are so adjusted that the motion
is gradually lessened as it travels
along them till, when it reaches the
delicate end, armed with a minute dia-
mond pen that rests on a glass surface.
it causes the pen to register on the
glass writing so small as to be invisi.
