Going Round the World.

In sailing around the world east
ward the days. are each q little less
than twenty-four hours. according to
the speed Of the ship as the sun Is
met little earlier every morning.
These little differences added together
will amount to twenty-four hours
This gives the sailors an extra day
not in imagination. but as an actual
fact. They will have done an extra
days work, eaten an extra days ration
Of food and imbibed an extra days al
lowance of grog.
On the other hand, in sailing west
ward the sun is Overtaken little each
day. and so each day is rather longer
than twenty-four hours. and clocks
and watches are found to be too fast.
This also will amount in sailing around
the world to the point of departure to
one whole day by which the reckoning
has fallen in arrears. The eastern
bound ship. then. has gained a day.
and the western bound ship has lost
one. This strange fact. clearly work.
ed out. leads to the apparent paradox
that the first named ship has gain Of
two whole days over the latter. if we
suppose them to have departed from
port and returned Observation-Disclosures

Modern Gold Minino.

Up until about 1850 only placer or
surface gold was mined--that is, free
gold. deposited in the beds of streams.
in sands and in the crevices of rocks.
Placer mining. mainly in new and re-
mote regions. still furnishes material
though not large percentage of the
worlds output. Formerly the alluvial
gold was separated from the sands
and gravels containing it by washing
them in pans. cradles. rockers and
sluices. In 1852 the hydraulic method
was first employed in California. By
this means giant. stream of water
turned against the side of mountain
washes everything before it. The gold
settles to the bottom of the tunnel or
sluice through which the gravel. sand
and water flow. In 1889 dredges or
excavators were first used in Austria
liza. Today steam and electric dredges
produce considerable, portion of the
worlds output.-Byron w. Holt in Ev-
erybOdy'S.

Consul King David.

This amusing anecdote of Lamartine
is related by the Baroness Bonde in
her volume of letters. Shortly after

diately. Previously. however. it seems.
he had scrubbed David" on the page.
and the head Of the cabinet appointed
the said David consul at Bremen The
postulant. however, never came for
ward. and. though the poet did not like
being disturbed. NJ Hetzel was oblig-
ed to ask who was the David on his
list.
He who danced before the ark. -
was the answer.
"Oh. dear! have gazetted him to
Bremen!"
. How very singular! l meant him
for d subject for meditation, not for
nomination. But you can cancel it,"
The moniteur registered the change,
but few knew that the last consul ap-
pointed to Bremen was King David:

A glacier when it dislodges itself and
sails away over the Arctic ocean never

Ready Fer the Next One.

A generous and brave but very &C.
centric Virginia planter named Hill
Carter. who had once been an officer
In the United States navy. had hand
to hand battle at tisticuffs one day
with his plantation overseer and came
Off second best. He therefore chal
lenged the overseer to formal duel.
but the latter declined on the ground
that. being husba nd and father. he
was under obligation not to risk leav-
Ing his family destitute. Carter at
once removed that objection by set
Ting upon the family con,forta BILE
annuity. Then everything was got
ready for the fight. but just as the
two men faced each other the sheriff
arrived on the scene. took them into
custody and had them bound over to
keep the peace. Mr.. Carter did not
however. change the deed of gift with
which be had provided for the over
seer's family. remarking that he might
wish some time to resume the inter-
rupted fight and hence would rather
keep everything in readiness for
prompt action.-New York Post.

lanquaue of Switzerland.

1t is curious fact that the people
most celebrated for love of country
should in a manner be without Ian
guage-that is. a mother tongue. The
Swiss have three official languages
German. French and Italian. About
three-fourths of the population of the
mountain confederation speak Ger
man. while the remainder divide four
other languages among them. chiefly
French and Italian. these languages
being found. as rule. in districts in
close proximity to the countries where
in those languages are the principal
tongue. In Switzerland documents and
notices are printed in both the French
and German languages. In the nation
al assembly members deliver their
speeches in either French or German.
for nearly all members understand
both tongues. The DEGREES and procla
nations of the president are translated
by an official interpreter and furnished
to the press in both languages.-New
York Press.

Hard to Understand.

Surprising some one should spring
this on you rapidly and ask you what it
meant: 'Mare-zeat-to ats-deer-zeat-toats-
lam-sleativy-lit-t -kid-slea- tivy-too."
You would never think it was plain
English, but it is. 1t is simply: "AIares
eat oats; deers eat oats; lambs II eat
ivy; little kids II eat ivy too"
You should say this over many times
to yourself until you can roll it off
very quickly, run the words together
and then when you try it on your
friends they will have to confess that
they can't understand it, They will
feel quite foolish when you show them
that it is common English and that it
sounds odd only because the words are
spoken fast and run in together 1t is
this running Of the words in together
which makes it hard for foreigner to
understand our language or us theirs.

Why Boiled Water Freezes Easily.

Water which Is hot Of course cannot
freeze until it has parted with it's heat
but water that has been boiled will.
other things being equal, freeze sooner
than water which has not been boiled
A slight disturbance of water disposes
it to freeze more rapidly. and this is
the cause which accelerates the freez-
ing of boiled water. The water that
has been boiled has lost the air natu-
rally contained in it. which on ex-
posture to the atmosphere it begins
again to attract and absorb. During
this process Of absorption motion is
necessarily produced among it's parti
cles. slight certainly and impercepti-
bic, yet probably sufficient to accel-
crate it's congelation. In unboiled wa
ter this disturbance does not exist.
Indeed. water when kept perfectly still
can be reduced several degrees below
the freezing point without it's becom-
ing ice.

"Recollections of Fifty Years." One
night the laird. it's head. started from
his sleep. exclaiming:
"'There's the shot that has killed my
brother.
Ills wife told him it was but
dream. He must have given an anx-
ious thought to bis brothers before
going to sleep. Next day the pair
were in the garden directing their gar
deners when the laird suddenly ex-
claimed:
"'Do you hear the bagpipes?
"'No.' answered the lady. Il can
hear nothing. am sure there is no
sound
"'Strange' said the laird. for I can
even hear what is played. 1t is 1.-The
Flowers O. the Forest Are A Wefe

"A few hours later came the tele
gram reporting that the brother had
been shot down by some border war
rior and over his lonely grave the men
Of his regiment had played the pa

Her Fault.

bad, but who is very mischievous and
annoying. He is always getting into
trouble and making a disturbance.
Zone day he had been more than
usually uproarious. and l was very
tired Instead of scolding or punish
ing him l began in rather an exasper-
ated tone to talk to him.

Shakespeare's Definition Of Poetry.

SnakoSpeare'S Oer1nltlon OF roetry.
What pity it is that Shakespeare
ever used that phrase fine frenzy"
1t has become a fuddlesome factor in
the framing Of foolish fancies. 1t is
to the honor of Shakespeare, however,
that he came nearer to giving the
world the true definition Of poetry than
has any other man, for he did explain
what constitutes the true art Of poe
try making, and from this we are en-
abled to know what Shakespeare con-
sidered poetry. Curiously enough, it
is in the very passage where Shake
speare uses that unfortunate phrase
"fine frenzy" Let us quote:
The poets eye, in fine frenzy rolling.
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from
earth to heaven.
