Manual Labor yb. Machinery.
A fear seems to have taken possession
of many minds lest by the inventive
genius of man machiney might be pro
duced capable of accomplishing so much
as to remove the necessity for manual
labor, and, aa a consequence, lest they
themselves should be unable to gain a
livelihood. So widely have these views
l>een imbibed, even by men of apparent
intelligence of a comparatively high
order, that they have advocated in strong
terms, upon the rostrum and elsewhere,
the desirability of not only banishing
new machinery, but inventors also This
opposition has made the path of those
who possessed sufficient enterprise to lead
them to devise new methods, and new
apparatus to effect the same, not only
unpleasant, but generally unprofitable;
whereas if mankind had been more fully
endowed witli wisdom and brotherly
love a very different state of affairs would
have existed.
The cry that “the rich are growing
richer and the poor are growing i>oorer,”
as the result of the introduction of new
machinery is not trne. In fact, the use
of machinery is constantly improving the
condition of nil classes; and the advance
that Ims been made by the masses to
ward a higher civilization the last half
century is simply wonderful, and is due
to the development of the inventive
genius of man. That there is not an
equitable distribution of the products of
the farm, the mine, and the manufactory
cannot bo denied Hut where does the
fault lie? Not with the machinery either
of old or new design.
Let the reader look back with the aid
of proper books of reference to the con
dition of tilings llfty years ago. At that
time it was beginning to dawn upon tfre
minds of the most progressive that steam
railways were a possibility; but every
thing for the next ten years was in tlie
crudest possible condition, no more like
the comfortable railways of to-day than
a two-wheel springless ox-cart is like a
modern pleasure carriage. Then travel
was slow and tedious for all classes, rich
or poor. Now' the rich, and the poor as
well, may travel five hundred miles com
fortably in twenty-four hours. Then the
mails were weeks in going and coming
where days will now suffice. Then tele
graphs were unknown, but now any one
may send a message to a friend hundreds
of miles away for a few cents, and get an
answer almost at once, whereas it for
merly required several days if not weeks
for a message to go and come. These
and hundreds of other improvements
that have been inaugurated are open to
the use and benelit of all, and have
greatly lessened the most arduous work
of the laboring man, while the necessity
for his services is in no wise less now than
formerly In fact it may be truly said
that the day laborer can now enjoy many
things that the wealthiest men half a
century ago could not obtain. —New
York Mercantile Journal. _
The Spider.
The worst thing about this poor insect
is, that it is so thoroughly ugly. In it
Nature has sacrificed everything in the
formation of the industrial machine
necessary for satisfying its wants. Of a
circular form, furnished With eight legs
and eight vigilant eyes, it astonishes
"•'and disgusts) us by the pre-eminence of
fcin enormous abdomen. Ignoble trait
the inattentive and superficial
observer will see nothing but a type of
gluttony. Alas! it is quitfc the con
trary. This abdomen is its workshop,
its magazine, the pocket in which the
rope-maker keeps liis stock; but as he
fills this pocket with nothing but his
ow’n substance, he can only increase it
at his own expense by means of a rigid
sobriety. True type of the artisan. ‘* If
I fast to-day,” he says, “ I shall, per
haps, get something to eat to-morrow;
but if my manufacture be stopped, every
thing is lost, and my stomach will have
to fast forever.”
In character the spider is watchful
#nd cunning; in disposition timid, un
easy and nervous—being endowed with a
iqpre sensitive nature than is possessed
by any other insect. These character
istiesare the natural results of its miser
able condition, which is a state of con
stant, passive, weary waiting. To be
forever watching the ceaseless, joyless,
careless dances of the fly, which pays no
attention to the greedy desires of his
enemy, or the gentle whispers of: ‘ ‘Coma
here, little one, cume this way”—is to
be in a state of torment, to be
continually undergoing a succession of
hopes and mortification. The fatal
question, “Shall I get any dinner?” is
continually presenting itself to the
dweller in the web, followed by the still
more sinister reflection, “If I have no
dinner to-day, then no more thread, and
still less hope of dining to-morrow.”
The male spider often makes a meal of
his progeny; while the female loves them
so tenderly that if she cannot save them
in circumstances of peril she prefers to
perish with them. The love which she
bears to her little ones she does not ex
tend towards her mate. Sometimes,
after having in vain attempted to pre
vent him from devouring their offspring,
the idea appears suddenly to present it
self to her mind that tLe cannibal is
himself good for food, on which she
instantly falls upon him and eats him
up.
Sheep-Raising in Montana.
Judge Davenport, of Montana Terri
tory, says an exchange, purchased 1,000
ewes which cost him about $3,000. He
put these in charge of a young man who
was to take them on to a range, take all
the care of them, pay all the expenses of
the band and to receive as his share one
half of the wool produced and one-half
the increase of the flock. At the end of
four years a settlement was to be made
and .fudge Davenport was to receive back
1,000 of the best ewes which the band
contained. When the settlement was
made Judge Davenport had received for
his share of the proceeds of the wool
$6,500, and for his share of the increase
SB,OOO. The profits on the investment
of $3,000 for four years were $14,500, os
120 2-3 per cent per annum.
Smart Reckoning.
“ Pa, will you get me a pair of skates
if I prove that a aog has ten tails?’’
“Yes, my son.”
“ Well, one dog has one more tail than
no dog, hasn’t he?”
“ Y 66. ”
“ Well, no dog has nine tails; and if
one dog has one more tail than no dog,
then one dog must have ten tails. Hand
over the skates, please.”
The Horse’s Punishment.
The liorsc appreciates a comfortable
fitting harness as much as he does a
properly-fitted shoe. The latter, when
set too tight, or with a nail driven into
or too near the sensitive tissues, produces
positive lameness. Under this condition
of things ho is promptly taken to the
shop for relief. But he may suffer nearly
or quite as much from the chafing of a
badlv-fitted collar or a narrow belly
band, drawn too tight. Or from a check
rein shortened np so as to form of itself
one of the severest punishments. Either
of these conditions will produce restive
ness in the dullest brute, and in the ease
of an animal of nervous temperament,
and having a thin, sensitive skin, he is
liable to become frantic, the obtuse owner
or driver seldom appreciating the origin
of the difficulty.
No greater evidence can be advanced
to establish a horse’s entire submissive
uess than his willingness to pull against
the collar with a portion of the breast
surface denuded of its skin, and showing
the highest possible state of sensibility.
The average horse will do this, shrink
ing at every step. A horse learns to
dread the approach of the master or
driver with harness in hand, if this has
previously been a source of torment, or
even discomfort. A horse properly han
dled for a period, in a well-ntted harness,
then chancing to fall into the hands of a
bungler, will at once detect the undue
tightness or looseness of the strap, and
will not settle down to his usual gait con
tentedly, while the irregularity remains.
A spirited horse may, under such an irri
tating influence, do from downright fear
what may be wrongly charged as vicious
ness. Heavy strokes of the whip may
fall upon the irritated beast only to be
followed by evil results.
Among the every-day torments to
which the horse is subjected, we will
enumerate the following: Ist. Abraded
breast. 2d. Inflamed back from defect
ive saddle or harness pad. 3d. Bore
mouth from a too tight gag-rein, a severe
bit, or both. 4th. A sore tail from a too
tight or ill-made crupper. sth. An
abrasion under the body, caused by a too
tight or badly-fitted belly-band. 6th.
Irritation of the eyes from blinders
being strapped too close together, or on
the other hand are allowed to swing
around, first striking one eye and then
the other. 7th. Ears chafed by the
brow band being placed too high, or by
metallic rosettes with a sharp outer rim,
the base of the ear pressing across this
at every motion. Bth. The excessive
fatigue of all the structures of the neck
under the influence of the bearing rein.
The bearing rein, if made taut, and kept
so for any considerable length of time, is
a source of great discomfort to all horses,
and an insufferable torment to many. A
taut rein can be used with entire pro
priety on horses of line easy up-carriage,
especially while in motion; but if the
muscles and bony structure of the neck
extend forward horizontally from an up
right shoulder, rather than striking out
from a slanting shoulder, then the most
intense suffering will be inflicted by
straining the neck up to an angle entirely
unnatural to the animal, especially if this
strain be long kept up. To strain a cul
prit up by the thumbs, till only his toes
touch the ground, is certainly one of the
severest admissible punishments that can
be inflicted upon mortal, and the check
rein is undoubtedly akin to it, in its ex
treme application.

A Doctor’s Joy.
A doctor tells, with pardonable pride,
how, being called in at the debut of his
career to a consultation with an eminent
prince of the science, he had insisted,
despite the opinion of his famous senior,
that the patient had an incurable affec
tion of the heart. “And what were my
delight and pride,” he says, beamingly,
“on learning three days later that my
patient had gone off precisely as I had
declared he would. ”

A Posthumous Joke.
In the’ London probate registry is a
will dated 1791, by which the testator
left SSO a year to be spent on whisky to
be given to a number of Irish people,
not exceeding twenty, who may visit the
cemetery on the anniversary of his death.
Each is to go with a penknife and a stout
stick, and the whisky is to be distributed
in half-pint doses. The object is thus
explained by the testator: “Knowing
what I know of the Irish character, mv
conviction is that with these materials
given they will not fail to destroy each
other, and when, in course of time, the
race comes to be exterminated, this
neighborhood, at # least, may perhaps be
colonized by civil and respectable men.”

Hour to Travel Like Lightning.
An imaginative man proposes the fol
lowing plan by which he holds it possible
to transport freight and passengers by
rail from New York to San Francisco in
ten hours. What the freight or passen
gers would be good for when delivered
he does not pretend to say. The plan is
this: “A fair rate of speed for a railway
train is forty miles an hour. The dis
tance from New York to San Francisco
is, roughly, three thousand miles. I
would divide this distance into thirty
parts, with stations at every 100 miles.
First a track, not differing greatly from
the ordinary railroad track, should be
laid for a hundred miles, and it is only
neoessarv to study rapid transit accord
ing to my plan over this section of the
road to understand how the whole system
would work. Over the first track of 100
miles, and running over cannon balls
upon the track, is another, say 90 miles
long, on which, in turn, *is another, 80
miles long, and so on till on the whole
system the freight and passenger train
runs, it being of any desired and practi
cable strength. Suppose it is required
to go from A to B, a distance of 100 miles,
the stable track over which all the
others run is, of course, 100 miles long,
and the first movable track upon it is 90
miles long. Let the first movable track
be drawn by a stationary engine the 10
remaining io miles, whereby one of its
extremities will reach B, and let us say
that it takes fifteen minutes for it to move
through the ten miles. In the meantime
the track eighty miles long which runs
on the track ninety miles long will have
been advanced ten miles by the motion
of the ninety mile track, and will itself
(either by means of a stationary engine
or a locomotive) have advanced ten miles
on its own hook, so that in all it will have
gone twenty miles in the fifteen minutes,
and its extremity will reach B at the
same time that B is reached by the
ninety mile track. So with the seventy,
the sixty, the fifty tracks, and up to the
passenger and freight trains, winch will
reach and as soon as the ninety mile track
reaches B—that is to say, in fifteen min
utes, at the end of which it-will have
traveled about 100 miles. Perhaps the
following statement will make the mat
ter clearer. Let us call the ninety mile
track A, the eighty mile track B, and so
on. Ais drawn ten miles, carrying with
it B for the same distance. But B has
a motion of its own and travels over ten
miles on its own account. It has there
fore gone 20 miles. C, with a ten mile
motion of its own over B, which draws
it along, has gone 30 miles; I), 40; E, 50;
F, GO; G, 70; H, 80; I, 90; J (which is
the passenger and freight train), 100-
miles, and all in fifteen minutes. The
whole system of tracks need not be more
than four or five feet in height. With
sufficient power the scheme is practica
ble, and with motors at present at our
command it would v'ork for short dis
tances. —r Scientific American.

A Remarkable Railway Accident.
An almost incredible explanation was
given of the cause of an accident to the
Scotch express, near Leicester, England.
It is said that the train was stopped a
little beyond the town of Kibworth, the
engineer thinking something was the
matter with his engine. Examination
showed the locomotive to be all right,
and the engineer again applied steam,
but instead of running forward the train
was backed, and the engineer did not
notice the change of direction until the
train had returned to Kibworth station,
where it ran into a freight train, but not
before the engineer had applied the
Westinghouse brake, and bo prevented
more damage than the smashing of two
cars and the wounding of four or five
passengers. The engineer was suspend
ed; but it appeared from investigation
that none of the train hands knew that
they were going backward instead of for
ward until,it was too late to avert an ac
cident. It was stated by way of expla
nation that the night of the accident was
very dark.

Beef Tea.
Mr. Wilkinson of St. Mary’s Hospital,
London, advises the following improved
method of preparing beef tea:
The meat is cut into small pieces and
placed in the evening, in an earthenware
vessel with sufficient cold water to cover
the meat; in this it is allowed to remaiu
all night. In the morning the meat is
taken out, placed in other water, and
boiled for several hours. The meat of
the previous day is then passed through
a mincing machine, and put into the
cold liquor in which the meat was steeped
the previons night, and upon this the
boiling liquor from the dav's beef tea
is poured, and the whole well stirred and
it then forms the complete beef tea. The
characteristics of good beef tea are that
ail the nutritious elements of the beef
should be made available; and by the
process carried out as above this is effect
ually done, the albumen, fibrine, and
gelantino being all retained and taken
by the patient. Moreover, by the above
method a much smaller quantity of meat
is required than under the ordinary
mode, and it would, consequently, not
become a jelly if allowed to stand; but
by adding a larger quantity of beef this
result could of course be obtained.
(This forms with us what is called beef
jelly.) It should, however, be remarked
that in very hot weather the beef tea
cannot be made in this manner, as it
would become sour from the length of
time required for its preparation.
Busy Men.
Busy men of affairs like Thiers have
often surprised the world by the extent
of their literary labors. Bossuet was a
prolific writer, and the following pas
sage from the newly published “Ecrits
Inedits” of St. Simon explains how he
reconciled his literarv tastes with his
absorbing duties of Bishop of Meaux:
‘ ‘He know so much, and with so much
order and method, that he wrote with
astonishing facility. He, like the poets,
had no fixed hours for work, though he
worked a great deal daily. At night he
had a fire, a light, a pair of pantaloons
and a dressing gown near his bed, and
nearly every night he rose and worked
alone several hours. People who were
ignorant of this circumstance were often
very much surprised that he was not out
of his chamber at 11 a. m., and*that soon
after he rapily dressed to say mass. He
had worked until 6, 7 and 8 a. m., car
ried away by his abundance and subject.
The quantity of works he has left is
prodigious, and with so many, such con
tinual and such varied labors, he none
the less proved to be an excellent bishop,
visiting and preaching himself to his
flock, and he measured his teachings to
their mind.”
