That is a good hand which U put out to help sorno one who has fallen by the wayside. That is a good hand which knows how to make pain easier and head aches vanish. That is a good hand which knows how to give heartily and freely. That is n good hand which is put out to help you or me as we walk along in life, when we feel that we n> od oomebody to protect us. That is a good hnud which never wrote anything of which it was ashamed, and which never put its name to fraud or dishonesty. Ihat is a good hand whioli helps along the sick aud tho weak, aud helpless and the poor. That is a good hand which doeB work well; whatever it tnay he, wherever it may bo. it doth not grow weary, and it does its work ho that it is worth its wage. Russia not only has the largest population, but is increasing more rapidly than any other European country. A recent handbook gives Russia in Europe 100,000,000 pop ulation, and reports tho per cent, of marriages constantly increasing. Thore is almost no educational pro vision for the common people, and the purpose evideutly is to keep the masses ignorant and servile. It is not surprising that they are Nihilists. An Eaten On* Town. On tho oocewou of tho visit of Prosi- <tmt Harmon to Topeka, Kan., the ho tels, restaurants and Ixiarrting houses were overrun by tho gnat crowd. Peo ple clamored for food as the crowd clam ors to get Into a citons, und guard* were placed at the dining room doors to keep back those who could not lx* at once ac commodated. A gentleman who had tried every public place found at a late hour in the afternoon a restaurant in an out of the way place. He wont in aud asked if he could be fed. The proprietor said he liad' been eaten out. “ITl give you a dollar for a gluss of milk und piece of pie,” said the stran ger. “Aint got no milk and ain’t got no pie,” replied Ute hungry proprietor. “What's that in that showcase—isn't that pie?” asked the -stranger, pointing out a pumpkin pie. The proprietor look ed at it in a languid manner and an swered: "That's all we have left for my family. If I sell that they worit get anything." "Ill give you a dollar for tho pio," said the hungry stranger, growing des perate. TYo proprietor took out tho pie and was in the act of banding it over when bis Jaw opened and obont linlf the pio disappeared, the other half being handed over to tho stranger, who refused it “Sell it for a quarter,” said tho pio man, 1*001121101 now that his chance was growing smaller. Hut the stranger re fused the nigged moiety and went away sorrowful and as hungry us whon he came.— Chicago Tribune. Klrnp for School Children* We all know how much greater is the need of cltildron for sleep titan of grown persons, and how necessary for their good it is to be able fully to satisfy this need, but bow great it is gene-rally at any particular age of the child is very hard to define exactly. The amount varies under different climatic condi tions. In Sweden wo consider a sleep of eleven or twelve hours necessary for the younger school children and of st least eight or nine hours for the older ones. Yet the investigations have shown that this requirement lacks much of being met in all the classes through tho whole school. Boys in the higher clusses get but little more than seven hours in bed, and as that is tho average it is easy to perceive that many of them must con tent themselves with still less sleep. It is also evident from tho investiga tions that tho sleeping time is diminished with tho increase of the working hours from class to class, so that pupils of the same ago enjoy loss according as they are higher in their classes. It tlips ap pears constantly that iti schools of rela tively longer lwmrs of work the sleeping timo of tho pnpils is correspondingly shorter. In short, the prolongation ot tho working hours takes place for tho most part at the cost of tho timo for sleep.—Professor Axel Key in Popular Science. Texas One-Tenth the Country. A great many people want to know how large Texas is in area. They look in quite* a number of alleged statistical abstracts and never find the saime-figures hi two of them. The official figures of Texas area are 852,696 squaro miles— eqjati to about 8.9 per cent, of the entiro area of tiie United States and territories. Texas is six times larger than New York, seven times us large as Ohio, and 100,009 equate miles larger than all the eastern and raiddlo states, including Delaware and Maryland. Compared with tho countries of Europe sho has 84,000 square miles more than tbe Aus trian empiro, 08,000 more than the Ger man empire, and nearly 70,900 square miles more than France,—Texas Trade Journal.

Then he led them to a pool of water and hade thorn jump in and bathe. Ono of them, obeying at once, leaped in in advance of bin fellows, and came out clean and white. Tho other hesitated, but ono soon fol lowed tiie first. When hw wont in tho water had become Bomctv.-.nt stained and ho aune out copper colored. Then tho third man went in. By that time the water of the jiool luul become black, and he was consequently black When lie hml bathed. Thus it happens that there are white men; red men and black nion in tho world. Then the Great Spirit hd I d >wn three packages before flip three men, which contained their future fate. Outof pity for the black man he permitted him to have his first choice of tho parcels. Tin* black man, without hesitation, took the largest of tho parcels; the red man, whoso turn was n<*\!, look the tii-xt largest parcel, and the white man got, the l-eniuining one, which was very small. Then tho men ojicnod tliolr packages. That of tho black man v ::i found to contain shovels and other implements oi labor; 1I10 red man's contained hows and arrows, and tho white man's small pat 1 * col consisted of jH-ns, ink mid tools for fine, light work. From (hat time on each man made use of the tools ho had chosen.—Cor. Youth's Companion. New York'* Ink Industry. New York is entitled to consideration as the leading city of tho Union in the manufacture of ink. Fift*-* a years ago English ink controlled tho market. Since then tho American article has boon gradually pushing tho British product out of tho market by its superiority and excellence. There is a great difference between tho wholesale und retail price of the fluid. A little bottlo of ink con taining two ounces, for which a person pays live cents, costs at tho factory one cent, Tho bottles are really mure valu able than tho ink they contain. The best black ink is made from the gull nut und iron. The gall nut is found in Arabia, and is about tho sixo of n hickory nut and grows on u small, scrub by oak. A large majority of tho col ored inks are made from the extracts oi coaltar, 'lhe most expei ivo colored ink used for ruling is carmine, made from Hie cochineal hug. Tho cochineal hug is raised with much care in Mexico. The dye from thin hug is worth $15 a pound. Since cochineal dye is becom ing scarce ink makers are compelled to nso an inferior red color from coal tar, Tho ten different cOhri^f Inks nrn all made from the extract of c-onl tar. White ink is made for writing on black paper, hut tlio demand for it is not very great. —New York Telegram. A Line Throwing Con. Another addition to tho list of recently invented life saving device's is tho shoul der line throwing gun, invented by Capt. D'Arcy-Irving, of the English royal navy. The invention consists of a shoulder gun, having tlio cop or coil of line, suspended in n case, carried under the breech of the gnn. A rod is inserted in the barrel, the fore end of the rod being connected with the end of the line, which is iu the center of tlio cop. Tho line is 144 yards long, and tho charge of powder used is two drains. Upon the gun being died at u high elevation tho rod is projected up ward aud forward, currying the lino trail ing after it. Tlio object is, of course, to land the lino over the ship or other object, tho rod dropping behind it. By this means a ropo can ho made fast to the tail end of tho lino by the succoring party, and ho hauled on board by those in distress. —Now York Commercial Advertiser. A Story of Sclilllt-r. A curious incident is handed down front tho boyish life of Schiller. One day, in a tremendous thunderstorm, the family gathered together in ill disguised terror. But Fritz was missing, and the father, alarmed for bis safety, sought him in vuiu in all tlio rooms of the honse. Ho went outdoors to search for the truant, and to his surpriso found him perched on a branch of a solitary tree, eagerly watching the heavens and tbe flashes which lighted up the gloom. He was wholly indifferent to tho rain, which had wet him to tho skin, and to the dan ger he incurred. To the sharp reproof of tho father tho boy replied with a glowing face; “The lightning is so beautiful I wished to see where it came from."—Boston Herald. Why lioyg Are Fond of Nature. I havo often read in stories of boys who were fond of nature, and loved her sub limity aud beauty, but I do not believe hoys are ever naturally fond of nature. They want to mako use of the woods and fields and rivers; aud when they become men they find these aspects of nature ondeared to them by association, and so they think they were dear for their own sakes, but tho taste for nature is os purely acquired as the taste for poetry or the taste for tomatoes. I have often seen boys wondering at the rainbow, but it was wonder, not admiration, that moved them; and I have seen them excited by a storm, but because the storm was tre mendous, not because it was be&utifnl. —W. D. Howells. CorpurullouH Were Ever the Same. “Corporations have no souls" is a much older expression tliun most people im agine. It originated with Bir Edward Coke, who in the Sixteenth century was considered one of the best logoi writers of the age. He says, iu ono of his treat ises, “Corporations cannot commit tres pass, nor bo outlawed, nor excommuni cated, for they have no souls."—Detroit Free Press. It is a curious and inexplicable thing that a cigarette or a pipe will spoil the flavor of tho best cigar that was ever made. All smokers aro aware of A man with a cigarette can spoil tbe comfort of fifty cigar smokers, and a pipe of strong tobacco will rain the flavor at every cigar within reach. Wo**<*n und Their IXog. In r.rla. Women here, ns in London, havo an insatiable mania for carrying or loading by chain png dogs of all degrees of ugli ness. Ono afternoon, during a shower of rain, ono was soon walking along the Quai Jemmnpcs, whuro a number of workmen had just finished discharging a cargo of coal from a barge. Tho lady held in one hand an umbrella, with which she carefully protected from the least drop of wot an ugly little dog with a gorgeous blue ribbon round its neck. By her side trotted her daughter, a little girl about 8 years old, her shoes not so waterproof iw they might have been, who. deprived of tlx- protection of tiie umbrella monopolized by tho dog, was rapidly getting drenchod. As sho was nbout to cross tho bridge which spans tho canal ono of tho coal heavers went up toiler und said, "Allow me, madam, to relievo you of your dog, so that you may carry your girl to the other side." Tho woman accepted the offej, but when tlio party arrived at the other end of tlio bridgo the coal heaver threw the pug into tbo canal, telling its mistress at tho same time, "That’s u W son to you not to shelter a dog while your child is getting wot." Tho woman screamed and soon a crowd collected, to whom she pathetically nar rated the assassination of her pet. Two policemen at her instigation took the coal heaver to tlio station, but tiie super intendent declined to formulate auy charge against him. All sho could do. he told her, was to bring a ci-vil nction for tho value of her dog. Sho left tlni station “apparently much dissatisfied with tho decision."—Paris Cor. London Telogmph. All Walohos CompuMeg. A few days ago I was standing by an American gentleman when I expressed a wish to know whieh pohit was tiie north. IIo at once pulled out his watch, looked at it, mid pointed to tho north. 1 asked him whether ho had a compass Attached to his watch. "All watches," ho replied, “nre compasses." Thou lie explained to 1110 liow this was. Point the hour hand to tlio sun, and the south is exactly half way between the hour and the figuro 12 on the watch. For in stance, suppose that it is 4 o’clock. Point the hand indicating 4 to Ibo sun and 2 on the watch is exactly south. Suppose that it is 8 o’clock. Point the hand indicating 8 to tho sun and the figure 10 on tho watch is duo south. My American friend was quite surprised that I did uot know this. Thinking that very possibly I was ignorant of a tiling that overy one olso knew, and happening to meet Mr. Stanley, I asked that emi nent traveler whether lio was awnro of this simple mode of discovering the points of the compass. Ho said that lie had never heard of it. I presnmo, there fore, Hint tho world is in tho saino state of ignorance. Amalfi is proud of hav ing been tho homo of (he inventor of the compass. I do not know what town boasts of my American friend as a citi zen.—London Truth. Glycerine hi n Wool rmnrvatlxe. In order to make wool tissues water proof manufacturers have to expose the fabric to temperatures as high as 260 to 284 degs. Fahrenheit, and it has been found that the tissuo thus treated loses all Us resistance. Up to 230 degs. thero is 110 change in wool or woolen goods, but when heated to 266 degs. or above both turn yellow and allow evidences of combustion. By a series of experiments Mr. J. Perzog, an eminent French an alytical chemist, lias discovered a now process by means of which wool threads and fabrics may bo made to retain their durability and original resistance under high temperature during tho process of manufacture. Acting ui>on tlio established fact that g’yeerine greatly prevents evaporation of humidity, Mr. Perzog saturated some woolen fabrics with a solution contain ing 10 per cent, of glycerine, and ex posed them to high temperatures. The fabrics thus treated showed not the slightest change under a temperature of 284 degs. Fahrenheit, and they retained 13 per cent, of tlio glycerine. The dis covery of this simple principle removes ono of tlio greatest difficulties with which manufacturers of waterproof fabrics have had to contend.—Philadel phia Record. A Kitt'tuur on a lllcycln.* The New England farmer of today is much given to tho covered carriage aud horso that holds his head high. I sus pect that tho reliable but somewhat de liberate ox satisfied his ancestors. I met one farmor near Holyoko driving his cow home front the pasture on a bicycle —that is, the mail was on a bicyclo and the cow was ahead of hitn on foot, though slio looked as if she would appre ciate a bicycle, too, as lie was speeding her along on a rather livoly trot. I stop ped him and asked him if there was any show for a farmer to mako money in that section, and while tho patient cow leaned against a tree and caught her breath ho replied that there was none whatever. His grandfather had lnndo monoy on tho farm, he said, but I10 could not. Then lie called to tho cow to “hump her self,” and went spinning down the road with tho long suffering beast making desperate efforts to keep from being run over. It occurred to mo that perhaps his grandfather did not pick the stones off the farm with a bicyclo and a pair of tongs.—Cor. New York Tribune. Impure Ice. Tho Massachusetts hoard of health has examined 70 samplos of water and 330 samples of ice from 68 localities, with the result of showing that, contrary to general belief, ice may be nearly as im pure Rs the water from wlticli it forms. Tho crystallization of tho water forces out tho color, salt, and most of the mat ter in solution, and clear ice from pol luted sources may be comparatively free from impurities Hnd tho probability of hiding disease germs. But in snow ice and ice formed by flooding tlio impurities become entan gled, so that freezing gives no purifica tion. Tho public is warned by tho board, ttwreforo, that ico is unsafe fox domestic purposes when obtumed from a source pollnted by sewage beyond that which would bo allowable in drinking water, and that in general it is much safer to use for drinking water and for placing in contact with food that portion of the ice that is clear.—Arkansaw Traveler. A Historic Cradle. The Emperor William, his mothers and sisters, his children and all his IIo- henzollern ancestors born sinco 1722 have been successively rocked in the family cradle of that illustrious house or en throned thereon duriug tho court pro cession which adds splendor to each royal christening. Tho ancient couch is a clumsy structure of old oak, richly carved, round whose four sides is cut iu largo Roman characters tho text, “lie hath given his angels charge over thee, that they keep thee in all thy ways.”— —Harper’s Bazar.

Abont Torpedo lloat*. The next most important thing to speed in a torpedo boat is tho quick turning, and for this purpose tho larger Normand, Schicau and Yarrow boats havo two rudders, ono in the usual place at the stern ami ono under tho bow. Mr. Thomycroft has another device. Ho puts two curvod rudders near the stern und tho propeller is between them, so thut when tlio rudders are tumod to gether, tlio water which tho propeller is driving astern is turned a little to one side and helps to push around tho boat. The latest idea in torpedo boats is to have their launching tubes mounted on turn laities on dock instead of * boing fixtsl in tho bow. With this improve ment a boat will not have to steam straight at her enemy, stop, launch its torpedo and then turn to run away; bnt it can train its tube on tho big ship as if tho tube were a gun, and launch tho tor pedo wbilo rushing past at full speed. This would bo loss dangerous for the torjtedo boat, for it would uot afford tho men on the ship a good aim at her.— John M. EllicoU, U. S. N., In St. Nich olas. An Odd Coincidence. An old friend (call him W.) relates how, whilo he was in Florida, his watch stopped. Sinco it was a very good watch and had never stopped before, and had been duly wound the evening before, W. was much surprised that it wouldn’t go. By and by the head of tho house (cull him B.) came in. “Will you please give mo tho time?” said W. “Cer tainly," said B., and pulled out his watch. B. had a timepiece which was entirely trustworthy, not given to Irreg ularities of any kind. Ho pullod it out of his pocket. “By Jovel" he exclaimed, “my watch is stopped; thut's queer.” They compared the two watches, and they had stopped at the sumo hour and at tho same minute, and why they had stopped neither man was able to discov er.—Boston Transcript.

Little Kitty Clover is tho most brazen of beggars. "Gruntima, will you please lend mo your gold beads?” she asked, for perhaps the seventh time that week. Grandma patiently took them from the drawer, and suid, with her usual mildness, as sho gave them to tho child: "Try not to ask for them any of toner than you can help, Kitty.” “No'm," said Kitty, adding, ns a clever solution of the difficulty occurred to her, “If you don’t liko to lend’em, grandma, you could give ’em to me and then I needn't ask!”—Youth's Com panion.
