The Microscope.
From Science.

The story of the discovery Of the tele-
scope. how it was bound up with that
wonderful emancipation OF the human
spirit from the thraldom Of medieval
ignorance and the hatred Of scientific
light. has been told us by many learned
men: but l venture to think that the dis
covery of the microscope. which has
never yet had it's historian or poet was
one fraught with many more beneficent
results for humanity. BY its scrutiny
the invisible but actual sources Of most
Of the scourges Of mankind have been
discovered: and 1t would seem that 1t Is
in its power and not in that Of fleets or
armies that we must look for the phys
teal salvation of the sons of men. Man
may redeem himself from death. not by
sweeping the heavens with the space-an-
Initiating telescope. but by peering into
the dust of the earth with the space
creating microscope.

Beware of the Dog!
he New York Mail.

From the New York Mail.
Over in Jersey they have an interesting
device for keeping of tramps and bur
glars. A watchdog, too ferocious and too
valuable to be allowed TO run loose, is
tied to a rope about four feet long. and
this rope is tied TO a ring that runs
loosely over a long wire about four feet
from the ground. The wire stretches
from the back porch to a pole at the end
of the yard, and as the ring slips easily
over ii the dog has the full run of the
yard without being able to bite visitors
and innocent passers-by. The wire is
practically invisible by night. and many
a prowler has gone on his way sadder
but wiser man, after assuming from
the looks of things in the front of the
house that there wasn't any dog.

Indian Modesty.

From the New York Mail.
The Indian farmer WAS shown to
be up-to-date at a big agricultural
fair at Fort Peck. Mont, recently.
in which Indians were the only ex-
hibitors. Thirty-three varieties OF
grains and vegetables were exhibited.
and the first prize was taken by
Hocesan, an Assiniboine, who showed
some enormously fine products. in
Guiding monster OF cabbage
said to be the largest ever grown.
When Hocesan was congratulated on
his success as a farmer he made a re
Spouse which was characteristically
Indian. both i'm form and substance.
1T was the SOIL" he said; "all L did
was to put the seed in the ground.
The Indian ought to make good
farmer, when he gets used to 1t, for
his sentiment from time immemorial
has been: "rhe earth is my mother
and the sun is my father"

herds to care for them. There are COWS

most wonderful of all, Gesu Bimbo. with
golden hair and tiny crowns.
~.
With baskets of moss these mimic fig
ures are arranged amid sloping masses of
mountains and grottoes. In the center
the Child is placed, with the mother
watching over and the shepherds and
Magf gathered about. This constitutes
the Italian presepi, which is a feature of
the church decoration for Christmas eve
mass.
The dinners Of the poorer Italians. the
stevedores and fishermen, are wonderful
conglomerations Of all varieties of food
stuffs. There is macaroni, fried fish.
quantities of vegetables stewed together.
and plenty Of dark red wine. The piece
de resistance of the meal is the fried cells.
which are as dear to the Italians as our
familiar turkey. Their feast is topped of
with oranges. nuts. figs and susamiella.
a tart covered with chocolate and sugar.
This dinner is enjoyed to the full extent
of their appetites before going out to the
midnight mass and the street fireworks.
The festivities of Christmas eve are SO
rigorous that Christmas itself Is a very
quiet day. The presepi in the churches
are uncovered and all Italy turns out to
see them
This seems a very different kind Of a
Christmas from American Mary's: more
like her Fourth of July, but the Italian
piccolos are delighted with it and love
the crowds on. the streets and the deli
cious smells coming from the pastry shops
where the richer classes have their suck
ing pigs roasted and shown with an
orange In their mouths.
Cold. icy Russia gives us Christmas
legend that is told every year and which
the children love to hear. They. too, are
unacquainted with Santa Claus. but know
instead a little old woman. who they be-
lieve comes to their bedsides every year.
This old woman is not Santa's wife, but
an Old wrinkled person who comes to
every house where there is child and
peeps into the cradles and then goes
away. She always seems to be looking

Barge Canal and Ship Canal.

When it is sought to estimate the value
of the canal to shipping it is necessary
to bear in mind the difference which ex-
lists between the barge canal and the ship
canal The former in constructed in order
that raw material of an imperishable and
indestructible nature may be conveyed
cheaply from one point to another-that is
to say. the canal exists in the interests
Of freight. but with the ship canal quite
the reverse is the case. The canal ex-
lists not only in the interests Of freight,
but to a great extent in the inerests Of
the vessel which carries it.
A vessel is property which, during
certain limited lifetime. is capable of car
rying freight and earning money for its
owner. but each day which it spends at
sea involves certain cost in respect of
interest on capital and other fixed
charges. 1t is. therefore. in the interests
Of shipowners to shorten the length Of
voyages. and in this respect the canal
would be of immense service. Not only in
regard to saving wear and tear at sea
would the canal effect a saving, but in
regard to the wages paid to the foc'sle
hands who are not part Of the vessels
permanent staff. and great many of
whom are discharged as soon as it
reaches port.

A convenience which reduces distance
as materially as the foregoing ms. ances
indicate would be bound to establish
closer and more frequent sea communica-
ton between the east and west coast
ports. including Ireland, which could not
fail to benefit by improved transit fac.li-
ties with Great Britain, which provides
the chief market for her exports. The
canal would also open up safe, expedi-
