MlGHTiEST NAME IS
GEORGE WASHINGTON
Glory Is Magnificent, Like the Sun,
Said lincoln-An Old
Grafton 10 Found.

NEW YORK.-Seventy eight years
ago last Sunday at Springfield, ILL.,,
where his tomb is now a national
shrine, Abraham Lincoln paid trib-
ute to George Washington. The elo-
quent words he uttered then have
been lost to most of the people for
three-quarters Of a century in the files
of the congressional library. The or
iginal report Of the speech was
brought to light for the first time on
the W of the birthday of the i'm
mortal Father of His Country"
This is the 10 anniversary of. the
birthday of Washington Mr.. Lincoln
said. we are met to celebrate this
day. Washington is the mightiest
name on earth-long since mightiest
N the aus Of civil liberty; still
mightiest in moral reformation. On
that name an eulogy is expected. It
can not be. To add brightness to the
sun or glory to the name OF Wash
ington is alike impossible. Let none
attempt it. In solemn awe pronounce
the name and in it's naked, deathless
splendor leave it shining on"
The original text of this little known
example of Lincoln's eloquence was
found in Washington by Lucien H.
Alexander of Philadelphia, a student
of Lincoln.

Carry Piano BY Airplane.

Carrying a grand piano by airplane
from a London store to a customer in
France was only a spectacular feat,
done for the advertisement. No one
thinks seriously of establishing an air
plane line to carry grand pianos; but
merchandise of many kinds is trans.
ported across the channel every day
by airplanes that u on a regular
schedule. A British airplane com
pany has received an offer of IS an
ounce to bring from Shanghai to Lon
don certain essences that are used in
manufacturing perfumes; London pa.
pers are delivered regularly in, dis.
tant cities by airplanes; passenger air.
plane lines are announced between
New York and Atlantic City, between
Los Angeles and San Diego and be-
tween Calcutta and Simla-to mention
no others; and tickets are already on
sale for airplane trips from London
to Rio de Janeiro.

Bigger and Heavier Hen Fruit.

1t Is thought by naturalists that the
eggs Of domestic hens of the present
day are larger and heavier by nearly a
third than those Of the hens of the
ancients. Eggs differ a good deal in
weight, the average weight being about
two ounces. A good egg is made up
Of ten parts shell, 60 parts white
and 80 parts yolk. The white of an
egg contains SO per cent water. The
shell contains about 2 per cent animal
matter and 1 per cent of the ph0s-
pilates of lime and magnesia, the rest
consisting Of carbonate of lime. Half
the various specimens Of snakes lay
eggs. Instead Of shell the covering Of
the egg Is a tough, white, leathern sub
stance. The largest egg of any bird to-
day is the ostrich egg.

The vessel was plainly a total wreck,
rapidly pounding to death on a sharp

crushed their way through. The bows

cabin port holes barely above reach Of

on board, and, as the fog slowly drifted
away. my eyes could discern no sign
Of any boat, no evidence of the crew,

voice aroused me.

into the boat, taking my place with a

1t was a distressing, hopeless sight,
the vessel rising before us like the
roof Of a house, the deck planks stove
