Latitude and Lonnitude.

The lines seen on maps and globes
called degrees of latitude and meridian
of longitude serve the very important
purpose of fixing the position of places
and things and the reckoning of dis
tanccs north, south, east or west
from given point. Latitude measures
distance north or south, longitude
measures distance east or west, and
between the two the exact position OF
n county, city or ship can be definitely
determined. The base of calculation,
north or south, is the equator; that of
the distance east or west is Green
wich. England. a line joining the
poles ana passing through Greenwich
is called the prime meridian, from
which distance east or west IS calcu-
lated.

"There's Manv a Slip."

This phrase originated with a poor
slave 1t was prOphesied OF a king.
and the prophecy was fulfilled. When
Ancaenus was King Of Samos in the
Grecian Archipelago, he planted an
extensive vineyard. and oppressed his
slaves so heavily in its cultivation
that one Of the holder ones prophesied
that he would never live to taste any
Of the wine.
The king laughed and had the
slave beaten Then at last when the
wine was made he sent for the slave
to witness him drink the first glass
OF 1t in order to show him that the
prophecy was false. When the ser
want appeared the king, raising the
glass of liquor, said: What do you
think of your prophecy now?'
There is many slip 'twixt cup
and lip," was the answer. The
words were scarcely uttered when
Ancaenls was Informed that wild
boar had broken into the vineyard
and was running it. Dropping the
wine untasted, the king fastened to
the scene to drive out the boar. but
was killed in the encounter, and the
slaves prophecy was fulfilled.

from an improper manner In which
the COW, when heifer. was broken
to milk. or from some bad manage
ment Of the mixer after the animal
has grown older. Cows OF a highly
nervous temperament will, not in.
frequently, become confirmed kickers
from the rough and careless manner
In which the mixer handles the I'D
der and teats while milking. Any
rough and careless handling Of the
udder. when filed with milk, Is more
or less painful to the animal. and
a kick may be given, not from any
viciousness or i'll temper, but Is SIM
ply an involuntary motion Of the foot
to relieve pain. The most effectual.
remedy for kicking COWS consists In
buckling strap snugly about the
body of the COW, Just In front Of the
udder. The COW is then rendered DOW.
erless to do harm in kicking and the
most confirmed and viciously inclined
