Literary Revolution and
Universal Knowledge.
An Encyclopedia in 20 vols., over 16,000 pages; 10 per cent, more matter
than any Encyclopedia ever before published in this country, and sold, hand
somely and well bound, in cloth for $lO, in half morocco for sls, and printed
on fine heavy paper, wide margins, bound in half Russia, gilt top, for $20 —an
enterprise so extraordinary that its success, beyond all precedent in book pub
lishing, may be fairly claimed to inaugurate a Literary Revolution.
The Library op Universal Knowledge is a reprint entire of the last
(1879) Edinburgh edition of “ Chambers’ Encyclopedia,’’ with about 40 per cent,
of new matter added, upon topics of special interest to American readers, thus
making it equal in character to any similar work, better than any other suited
to the wants of the great majority of those who consult works of reference, and
altogether the latest Encyclopedia in the field.
Specimen Volumes in either style wfil be sent for examination with privilege of return
on receipt ol proportionate prioe per volume.
Special Discounts to all early subscribers, and extra dieoonnts to clubs. Fall particu
lars with descriptive catalogue ot many other standard works equally low in prioe, sent tree.
Leading principles of the American Book Exchange:
I. Publish only books of real value.
11. Work upon the basis of present cost ot making books, bout one-half what it was >v
few'yesra ajto.
111. S4l to buyers direct, and save Lheat the fifty te sixty percent, commission commonly
allowed to dealers.
IV. The cost of books when made ten thousand at a time is but a fraction ol the cost
when made five hundred at a time—adopt the low prioe and sell the large quantity.
V. Use good type, paper, etc., do careful printing, and strong, neat binding, but avoid all
•• padding,” fat and heavily.loaded type, spongy paper and gaudy binding, which are so com
monly resorted to to make books appear large and fine, and which greatly add to their cost,
but do not add to their value.
VI. To make one dollar and a friend is better than to make five dollars and an enemy.

A Remarkable Plow.
A Chicago agricultural journal gives
an account of the largest plow ever
known to be made, which has been re
cently turned out by an Illinois firm of
agricultural machinery makers for use
on the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and
Southern railway. It is attached to a
platform car of a construction train in
such a way as to cut its ditch a sufficient
distance from the railway line. It
will make one mile of ditch, two feet
deep and three feet wide, every four
hours, thus doing the work of 1,000
men. The beam is made of swamp oak
and is eight inches by four inches, the
land side being made of bar iron eight
inches wide and one and a half inch
thick, which had to he forged expressly
for the purpose. Its total weight is
1,700 pounds.
A prehistoric cemetery has been dis
covered near Milan, Italy, containing
vases and other articles of such artistic
design that they might serve as elegant
models for modern potters.
Streets of Canton.
They are very narrow and dirty in
the first place, with an average width
of from three to five feet. They are
paved with long, narrow slabs of stone.
Their names are often both devotional
and poetical. We saw Peace street and
the street of Benevolence ahd Love.
Another, by some violent wrench of the
imagination was called the street of Re
freshing Breezes. Some contented mind
had given a mime to the street of Early
Bestowed Blessings. The paternal senti
ment, so Sacred to the Chinaman, found
expression in the street ot One Hun
dred Grandsons and street of One Thou
sand Grandson s. There was the street
of a Thousand Beatitudes, which, let
us pray, were enjoyed by its founder.
There were streets conseeVated to Ever
lasting Love, to a Thousandfold Peace,
to Nihefold Brightness, to Accumulated
Blessings; while a practical soul, who
knew the value of advertising, named
his avenue the Market of Golden Profits.
Other streets are named a f ter trades
and avocations. There is Betelnut
street, where you can buy the hi tel nut.
of which we saw so much in Siam, and
the Cocoanut, and Drink Tea. There
is where the Chinese hats are sold, and
where you can buy the finery of a man
darin tor a few shillings. There is Eye
glass street, where the compass is sold ;
and if you choose to buy a compass,
there is no harm in remembering that
we owe the invention of that subtle in
strument to China. Another street is
given to the manufacture of bows and
arrows; another to Prussian blue; a
third to the preparation of furs.
The shops have signs in Chinese
characters, gold letters on a red and
black ground, which are hung in front,
a foot or two from the wall, and droop
before you as you pass under them
Oae of the annoyances of the streets
is the passage through them of man
darins in their palanquins, surrounded
by guards, who strike the foot-passen
gers with their whips if they do not get
out of the way quickly enough.—7/ar

The Number Three.
When the world was created, says
an old writer, we find land, water and
sky; sun, moon and stars: Jonah was
three days in the whale’s belly; our
Savior passed three days in the tomb;
Peter denied his Savior thrice. There
were three patriarchs—Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob. Abraham enter
tained three angels. Samuel was
called three times. “Simon, lovest
thou me?” was reported three times.
Daniel was thrown into a den with
three lions for praying three times a
day. Shadrack, Meshnck and Abed
nego were secure from the flames of
the furnace.
The Ten Commandments were de
livered on the third day. Job had
three friends. St. Paul speaks of faith,
hope and charity—these three. Tiiose
famous dreams of the baker and butler
were to come to pass in tlm e days.
Elijah prostrated himself three times
on the dead child. Sampson deceived
Delilah three times before she dis
covered the source of his strength.
There are three conditions for man—
the earth, heaven and hades. There is
also the Holy Trinity.
In mythology there were three
m aces. Cerberus with his three heads;
Neptune holding his three-toothed
staff; the oracle of Delphi cherished
with veneration the tripod; and the
nine muses sprang from the three. In
nature, we have male, female and off
spring; morning, noon and night; trees
group their leaves in three; there is a
three-leaved clover. Every ninth wave
is a grand swell. We have fish, flesh
tnd fowl. The majority of mankind
( lie at Urrty-three. What could bedor.e

A Lightning Calculator.
Jacques Inaudi is advertised in Paris
as a little prodigy. He is eleven years
old, and a lightning calculator. The
first task that he was asked to perform
vas a subtraction sum, and, when
eight figures had been given out, some
jf the audience fearing that his brain
vould be too heavily burdened called
im, “That is enough!’’ Inaudi, how
ever, immediately replied : “ It does not
matter. Give me some more”—and lie
tid accordingly to subtract one line of
tifteen figures from another of the same
number, giving the result of the oper
ation without any appreciable delay.
One of the spectators, advanced in
ears, put the following query to the
‘ calculating boy“ I am twenty days
less than eighty-six years old. How
many hours have I lived?” Alter de
voting about a minute to the mental
ca’culation, Inaudi gave the answer as
753, 3y6 hours, which proved correct.
He was then made to do multiplication
and division sums, with lines of figures
to trillionsand quadrillions, and always
worked them out “ in his head” without
the slightest mistake or stumble
Among his other trials was the solution
>f a simple equation. A gentleman
asked: ‘‘lf to my present age I added a
hird of my age and six years moie, I
should be a hundred and twenty-six
years old. What is my age? ’ Inaudi
replied: ‘‘Oh, that is easy enough; you
are ninety.” Somebody else asked him
the cube root of 39.304, and, with
scarcely a moment’s hesitation, he
answered, “ thirty-four. ” Four months
ago he was one of those long-haired
tittle Italian vagabonds who make a
tour round Europe and eke out a pre
carious existence by means of the cop
pers thrown them for their amusing
antics. His skull is much more
“developed” on the right side than on
the left.
So firm and hard a substance can be
made by subjecting to a heavy pressure
card or pasteboard composed of single
sheets of brown paper pasted together,

of this variety as roofing for a portion
of his mill.

Superstitions About Dogs
Capitolinus narrates how the dogs by
their howling presaged the death of
Maximinus. At the present day this
widely known omen is found in every
part of our country, In France and Ger
many, find even in Turkey. Thus, in
Germany, a dog howling before a house
portends a death or a fire. If it howls
along the highway, that is considered
in Westphalia as a certain token that a
funeral will soon pass by that way.
The same notion, too, exists in Den
mark. Out of the innumerable instan
ces recorded in this country respecting
this popular superstition may be men
tioned one related by Mrs. Latham in
her “ West Sussex Superstitions.” No
slight consternation was caused at
Worthing a few years ago by a New-
foundland dog, the property of a clergy
man in the neighborhood, lying down
on the steps of a house and howling
piteously, refusing to be driven away.
As soon as it was known that a young
lady, long an invalid, had died there,
so much excitement took place that the
occurrence reached the owner of the
dog, who came to Worthing to inquire
into the truth of it. Unfortunately,
however, for the lovers and believers in
the marvelous, it turned out that the
dog had accidently been separated from
his master late in the evening, and had
been seen running here and there in
search of him, and howling at the door
of the stable where he put up his horse
and other places which he often visited
in Worthing. It happened, also, that
his master had been in the habit of visit
ing the particular house where the
young lady had died, which at once ac
counted for the apparent mystery.
In the same way. indeed, other simi
lar instances of this superstition might
easily be cleared up if only properly in
vestigated at the time. An intelligem
Londoner, however, told Mr. Keily that
he had often listened to the howling ol
the dog, and verified the fulfillment o'
this infallible omen. The dog’s mod*
ot proceeding on such occasions i
g nerally this: The animal tries to get
under the doomed person’s window, but
if the house stands within an inclosure
and it cannot find its way in, it will run
round the premises or pace up and
down before them. If it at last succeeds
in making an entry, it will stop under
the window, howl horribly, finish wth
three tremtndous barks and then hurry
away. This performance is ascribed bj
some to the dog’s k* cn sense ol the odor
of approaching mortal dissolution:
whereas others affirm that this animal
can see the spirits which hover around
the house of sic!mss ready at the
moment of death to bear away the soul
of the departed one. Thus, in the
4i Odyssey,” the dogs of Eumasus an
represented as terrified at the sight o'
Minerva, although she was then invisi
ble to Telemachu3. In both German
and Aryan mythology the dog is said to
see ghosts; and whenever Hela, the
Goddess of Death, walks abroad invisi
ble to human eyes, she is seen by dogs.
In WaU s it is thought that horses have
also the gift of seeing specters. Car
riage horses have been known, says Mr.
Sikes, to display every sign of the ut
most terror when the occupants ol th*
carriage could sec no causes lor fright.
Such an occurence is said to be highly
ominous, and to portend that a funeral
will soon pass by that way, bearing to
his resting place some person not dead
at the time of the horses, fright.—
Gentleman's Magazine.
The Justice of Presque Isle.
In Presque Isle county, toward Mack
inaw, is a beautiful lake —Hight Grand
lake —on whose shore stands a club
house owned by sundry fish-loving citi
zms of Adrian, Mich. The country
around is pretty much as nature made
it —rough—and the few backwoodsmen
living there are much like the country.
One of them, named Crawford, wa>
lately elected justice of the peace. A
woodehopoer made complaint that a
certain raftsman had beaten him, and
asked for a warrant for the offender’s
arrest. The justice’s entire stock of
blanks consisted of a summons
and a subpena. After spending some
time Vainly in trying to make these
papers fit the case, he got mad, flung
down hi3 papers, and addressed the
complainant thus:
“ See here, mister, this court is bound
o see justice done in this township.
You pay me two and a half dollars,
costs of court, show me the man and
the court w’ll lick him in two minutes.”
Complainant paid the costs acd
pointed out the man. The “court”
with majesty on his brow and his
-leeves rolled up, went for the offender,
and in sixty seconds thrashed him to
the fuil content of both parties. The
ourt the n put on his coat and remarked
that “ lie was a peace officer and wished
it understood that this court woulu
preserve the peace, and any man who
thought he could raise thunder in that
neck of the woods would have to try
the case with the court personally.”
No othe r case has since been tried by
Squire Crawford.
Hours and Minutes.
Why is one hour divided in‘o sixty
minutes? and each minute again into
-ixty seconds? Why not divide our
time as we do our money, by tens, count
ing ten, or fifty, or one hundred min
utes to an hour. This question was
asked by an intelligent boy a few days
since; and the answer given him may
both interest and instruct other young
people. The answer is this: We have
sixty divisions on the dials of our
clocks and watches, because the old
Greek astronomer, Hipparchus, who
lived in the second * century before
Christ, accepted the Babylonian system
of reckoning time, that system being
sexigesimal. The Babylonians were ac
quainted with the decimal system; but
for common and practical purposes, they
counted by sossi and sari, the sosso3,
representing sixty, and the saros. sixty
times sixty, is thirty-six hundred.
From Hipparchus, that mode of reck
oning found its way into the works of
Ptolemy, about 150 A. D., and hence
was carried down the stream of science
and civilization, and found the way to
our dial plates of our clocks and
watches.
How to Obtain a Copyrignt.
The following are the rules which
must be observed in the United States
in order to secure a copyright for any
publication, painting, statue or other
articles for which such may be desired i
A printed copy of the book, composition,
etc., or a model or design of the work of
art, must be sent by the author oir pro
prietor, prepaid, to the librarian of
Congress, which will be transmitted by
return mail. Within ten days after
publication of each book or other article,
two complete copies must be sent pre
paid, to perfect the copyright, and ad
dressed as above. Without the deposit
of copies above mentioned the copyright
is void, and a penalty of $25 is incurred.
No copyright is valid unless the usual
uotice “Entered according to Congress,’
etc., is inserted on every copy published.
Each copyright secures the exclusive
right of publishing the book or article
copyrighted for twenty-eight years,
and six months before the end of that
time a renewal for the further term of
fourteen years may be secured. Th°
penalty imposed on any person who ha?
not obtained a copyright, and who shah
insert the above notice to that effect, or
words of the same import, is SIOO.
Flags at Half-Mast
The custom of putting flags at half
staff, or half-mast, is probably as old as
the use of flags themselves, which cer
tainly dates back to the time of the
Punic wars, if not further. It was cus
tomary at that time to lower the flag
in token of defeat, for we are told that
after the capture of the Carthaginian
ships by the Romans their flags were
taken down and trailed over their steins
by the victors, and is still done when
captured vessels are brought into port.
The custom of putting flags at half-stafl
is in all probability quite as old, ana
most like was confined to the navy at
first. At all events, it has been used bt
civilized nations from time immemorial.
When the Greeks were about to sail
