The Mighty Amazon.

The estimated length of the Amazon
from its source in the Andes 20 where
it debOuches in a mouth forty miles
wide into the Atlantic is 4.000 miles.
The story is told of a wrecked vessel
which was drifting. with her crew on
board suffering intense torment for
lack of fresh water, which entered the
mouth of the Amazon and the suffer
ers could have had fresh water SIM
ply by putting Il bucket owe the side,
but did not know where they were IN
til they got in sight of the land. This
mighty river, up which the tide goes
400 miles, is known in the upper part
of its course near the Andes as the
Maranon, then in the middle course.
from Tabatinga to the mouth of its
chief afiluent, the Rio Negro. as the
Solimoes, while for the rest of its
course its name is AmaZOnas or Anna
Zon. 4 thousand miles from the sea
it is four miles in width. Vast and of
ten impossible forests line most of its
banks.

The Greatest Man.

Who is the greatest nan who has
ever lived? The question went round
4 dinner table, and controversy ragged
from the fish onward. There were
two who pumped for Julius Caesar,
two more for Napoleon: one. thinking
of statues, said Shakespeare. and some
body else. who did not get Il hearing at
all. murmured Buddha at intervals.
while most of the people present who
did not know Greek said Aeschylus.
But Aristotle wOn easily. 1t was not
Il particularly scholarly assemblage,
and one wondered rather how many of
Aristotle's enthusiastic devoteeS could
have quoted accurately from him-had

Is the Earth Should Stop.

The stopping of a p%rojectile always
results in the generation of heat. The
velocity and weight of a projactile be-
ing known. the amount of heat devel-
oped by its stoppage can be calculated.
In the case of large bodies moving
rapidly the result of the calculation is
something astounding. For example.
the earth weighs 100000. 100000 tons
and travels in its orbits at the rate Of
over eighteen miles Il second. Should
it strike a target strong enough to stop
its motion the heat developed by the
shock would be sufficient not merely to
fuse the earth. but also to reduce Il
large portion of it to vapor. 1t has
been calculated that the amount of
heat generated by n collision so cOloS-
sal would equal that obtained from
the burning of fourteen globes of coal
each equal to the earth in size. And
should the earth after its stoppage fall
into the sum-, as it certainly would do,
the amount of heat developed by its
impact on the sun would be equal to
that generated by the combustion of
5000 earthS of solid carbon.

ed inspiration by n means which prov.
ed so Injurious that it caused the pre-
mature decay of his faculties. He was
accustomed 70 shut himself in a room
with a quantity of music paper. pens
and Ink and three or four pots OF
strong coffee. He would then begin To
write and drink. and when this supply
of coffee was exhausted he wOuld
order more and continue to drink it as
long as he wrote.
He asserted that the coffee was nee
essary for his inspiration. The result
of this perniciouS habit was II yellow,
parchment-like complexion. with lip
almost jet black and Il nervous system
which Soon caused his breakdown and
death.
Rossini was perhaps the LATEST of all
musicians whose names are famous.
He would rarely rise until midday. and
often when he woke and the weather
IA dull or the muse did not inspire
him TO write he would turn over again
and after directions to his servant to
be called the following day would sleep
blissfully for another t~wenty-fOur
hours.
He did most of his writing in bed,
and before retiring for the night he
would place music paper and n pencil
les his bedeide so that he would not
have to move in order to have the
at hand for writing down the
n,ucicnI |In,rh+- u-h;oh -,
1t is told of him that after writing
part of Il beautiful duet for an opera
the sheet on which he was writing fell
to the floor and. caught by Il puff of
wind, was soon beyond his reach. lie
was too lazy TO get up and get it and
thereby disturb the nicely arranged
bedclothes. SO lie set to work and
wrote another melody. as he could not
remember how the first one went.
Thus in the opera I'll TurcO il Italia
there are two duets for one situation.
and singers can choose the Il whicA
pIeaSeS them best.
List was probably the vainest Of
great composers ANA also one of the
most capricioUS. 1t vas only when in
the mood that he would play. and if
pressed to do so against his will he
would often become almost insulting.
. 1t is told of him that after being en-
tertained at dinner he was asked by
his hostess to perform on the piano.
and on refusing and again being
asked he stalked to the piano and
after dashing off a short but brilliant
composition he hurried from the room,
saying as he went: There. madam! |
have paid for my dinner!!"
On a similar occasion, after a dinner
party. he was pressed by his host to
play. Not being in the mood. however,
he refused; but. no doubt thinking that
genius needed urging. his host insisted.
The musician then walked TO the piano
and, turning his back to the keyboard
favored the company with n of the
popular airs.-Mary Hamilton Talbot

Lowell & Mes Forward.
F. NJ. KIMMELL:

+. NJ. KIMMELL:
DEAR SIR: Won't you, through the column of your very excellent
paper, say to our customers that we are now in the wholesale house and
buying for them what we know to be the preuiest line OF goods we ever
saw.
We must tell you of the hats: Last season we all thought the "Mer
ry Widow" hat an awful thing, but this season the hats are larger
higher in crown and wider brims Some of these hats look like great
bowls turned upside down. Others turn up on the right side or left side
in a "just pick your choice" style. Others ae narrow brims back and
front and very narrow brims on the side. But there ire lots of medium
sized and small hats, too, and one does not have to buy all big shapes.
And they trim them so becomingy. Never in our lives have we seen
hats so beautiful as these now in the great display rooms of Kansas
Ciys big whohsaHs-Frankel Frank & Co., and QueninKnght Mil
linery Go. of st. Joseph, Mo. We are buying some of these beautiful
patterns TO take home and also getting many new and valuable style
pointers which will be noticed in the hats we will make, this season.
Canard Ia shade of green) seems to have the call. Taupe is N of
the popular cdors and Satire is good, too. All coors are mIxed:-the
art It's in combining colors that harmonize. Some of the prettiest things
may be a bright color and the other parts shade from light to dark.
We expected to find goods higher than ever, but such is not the case.
While it is true that merchandise is little, if any, cheaper than a year
ago, tt S also true that the quality is better. By this we mean that a
plume we could buy at three dollars, last year, was not IS thick and of as
choice stock as the same makers plumes are at three dollars, this year.
We expect to be home soon and about the first of September will
welcome u customers to the best and most stylish showing we have yet
made. Very truly,
LOWELL & MES.
