Our stir. : • now a yellow star similar to (.apella, and lienee it will eventually b rume bl.iidi white like Silina and X ega. says T. J. J. See in The Atlantic. The secular shrinkage of tile sun’s radius will cause a steady rise in its temperature, and when the b< dy has reached the stage of Sirius, where the temperature is perhaps doubled, the light emitted will become intensely blue. The temperature may be expected to go on rising till a small radius is at tained. and finally, when the dense mass, intensely hot, becomes incapable of further shrinkage, on account of in crease in the molecular forces resisting condensation, a cooling will gradually ensue, after which the body will liquefy and then rapidly decline in splendor. The sun will thenceforth be wrapped in everlasting darkness, and the chill of death will overtake the planetary sys tem. A condition of darkness thus fol lows close upon a period of intense bril liancy, and hence the obscurity of such bodies as the companions of Sirius, Procyon and Algol. The most obscure satellites are thus associated with some of the brightest and most intensely lu minous stars in our sky, and here the smaller of the two masses, as in the case of the planets of the solar system, have developed most rapidly. In view of this approaching extinc tion of the sun's activity it becomes a matter of interest to inquire how long its heat will sustain life upon the earth. Though it is difficult to submit the sub ject to accurate computation, it is easy to see that the exhaustion of the sun’s light and heat certainly will not occur for several hundred thousand, and per haps not for several million years. Thus the ultimate doom of our system need occasion no anxiety among those now living, but the result is philosophically interesting to those who look several million years into the future. As experiment has shown that the sun's vertical rays falling continuously upon terrestrial ice would melt a layer three centimeters in thickness per day, it follows that a similar shell of ice would form over the earth in case the sun's light and heat were cut off. Ttttis in a month the whole earth would be frozen like the polar regions, and only the deeper bodies of water, containing a great amount of heat, would remain in a liquid state. The oceans themselves would freeze over within a few years at the latest, and the winds and even the tides would cease to agitate the ter restrial globe, which would henceforth spin in its orbit as a rigid, lifeless mass. JAPANESE CUSTOMS. Peculiar Practice of Formal Dtnneru. Gucnlh t arry Away Scraps. At the close of formal dinners in Ja pan the guests are presented with any portion of the meal they may fail to eat. However great or small the amount they may fail to eat, it is carefully wrapped up for them and they are ex pected to take it home with them. The unique custom was followed at official dinners until a short time ago, when it was discontinued, but the withdrawal of government example has not materi ally affected the practice.' The plan has been followed for many years and it is difficult to place its origin. Peculiar as the custom is, it is not without its attractive features. The husband who stays out late at night can pave the way to wifely pardon with the neat and tempting parcel under his arm. The impecunious or temporarily embarrassed can hold out enough to tide them over several hungry days. The in dulgent father or mother can pass the sweets and carry them home to their child; 'n. Half a dozen satisfactory com binati; ..s can be worked on the plan. There may be all kinds of elaborate . courses at a dinner that one does not care for, lint the mental struggle of say ing no is not half so hard when you know you will get a chance to carry the food off and either give it to your chil dren. feed it to your dogs and cats or distribute it among your friends. The Japanese practice is all that could be expected. Each kind of food is kept in a separate parcel, and at the close of the dinner the share of each guest is made up in a neat and artistic bundle. —San Francisco Chronicle. Sample Carriers. The Philadelphia Record says: “A pe culiar trade followed by a number of men who haunt the big hotels is that of sample carrier. The natty drummers who visit the city are far above the work of lugging around their sometimes heavy samples, and bo there has arisen a class of men who make a living by hanging around the hotels waiting an opportunity to carry sample cases. Sometimes these cases are very valu able, as when they contain samples of jewelry. It is not an infrequent sight to see a spruce young fellow, followed by a shabby individual carrying two black cases, enter the portals of one of the big hostelries. If the couple were traced farther it would be seen that the big imtel safe was the objective point. Some of these sample carriers have their reg ular patrons, who look for them on ev ery visit. Proper Length of the Foot. A perfectly formed foot should, ac cording to anatomists, be as long as that bone in the forearm which extends from the elbow to the joint of the wrist. This seems to he abnormally long in a tall person, but is the measurement taken by artists. Os course, arms are sometimes out of proportion, being far too short for the general height, but it is rare that an arm is too long for the stature of the person. She Whm Dive nan Red.

I never saw a mirror, and gradually all interest in my personal appearance faded completely away. When it be came sure that an expedition was on its way to Omdnrman, I began to live again. When at last the cannon began to thunder and the wild cries of the battle penetrated the city, I laid my sword ready, determined, should this last hope be destroyed, to put an end to my life. When finally the noise of the cannon ceased and the victor Kitch ener stood before me, congratulating me on my release, 1 thought I should suffocate with emotion. “The next day’ 1 made my toilet in an officer's tent and held in my band the first looking glass I had seen for 15 years. 1 looked curiously’ at my reflec tion in it and started back. I had gone out into the world a young, active strong man, and the image which now stared at me was that of a sick, hollow eyed, wrinkled, broken man. Never did all that I had suffered enter my mind with such strength as at this moment, and I wept, wept like a child—the first tears in 15 years' “The day after I was made a prisoner I. saw my wife die, but my grief was too great for the relief, of tears. My’ child was torn from me and died of starvation far away, and 1 could not weep. I suffered deprivations and ill treatment without a sign of weakness, but now, before this small looking glass, I was overwhelmed. The pain of all that I bad lost seemed concentrated in the grief stricken features reflected in the mirror At one glance I saw the story of my sufferings.” ADDERS FOND OF EGGS. Little Reptile. XV Ith II emti rk ills le Swallowing Ability. Among a lot of very interesting speci mens of prepared animals sent to the Museum of Natural History at Paris by Father Guilleme, a missionary in the upper Kongo country, there is one group of native adders, in the act of swallow ing eggs, which excited uncommon in terest. The most remarkable part of it is the relative size of this snake and its common food. This adder is rather small; it is seldom longer than 28 inch es, and its thickness never exceeds an inch. Yet it feeds regularly on duck eggs, the smaller diameter of which is almost two inches. How the snake can get such an egg into its mouth is difficult to understand, and the aspect of these reptiles while swallowing the eggs is most strange. The only way to account for this pe culiar manner of swallowing whole eggs is the presence in the neck, just back of the head, of a series of pointed bones slanted backward and piercing the esophagus. These not only assist to hold the egg in place, but act like a saw. When the egg has advanced far enough, their pressure will cut the egg; its contents will continue into the stom ach, while the empty’ shell is crushed afterward and thrown out through the mouth. While in the act of swallowing the egg the snake is easily caught, for it is then almost in a state of complete in ertia; it then looks very much like the bulb as used by photographers for open ing their shutters. “( liimney Climate,*’ “Chimney climate” is the latest for the climate that is to be found in all large cities. Its characteristics, says a man of learning, are mildness, absence of rain and frequency of fog as com pared with surrounding rural districts And he gives a very clever explanation of the presence of the fog. It is actually manufactured right under our eyes. You know if you look crosswise at a sunbeam you see in it a myriad of very small particles of dust, so densely crowd ed together that some scientists even attribute to them the color of the sky. And there is also about us an invisible vapor and this combines with the parti cles to give us fog. It may bo so. It sounds reasonable enough when one takes into consideration the fact that fogs are more frequent in-large manu facturing cities than elsewhere.

In blissful ignorance of this little fact the knight of the r.i zor opened fire.

Pearson’s Weekly. Rewarded For Ilin llonvNty. An English farm laborer recently went to a small store kept by an old woman and asked for “a pahnd o’ ba con. ’ * She produced the bacon and cut a piece off, but could not find the pound weight. “Oh, never mind t’ pahnd weight,” said he. “Ma fist just weighs a pahnd So put ther bacon i' t' scales.” The woman confidently placed the bacon into one side of the scales while the man put his fist into the other side, and, of course, took good care to have good weight. While the woman was wrapping the bacon up the pound weight was found, and, on seeing it, the man said: “Nah, you see if my fist don't just weigh a pahnd. ” The pound weight was accordingly put into one scale and the man’s fist into the other, this time only just to balance. The old woman, on seeing this, said “Wha, I niver seed aught so near afore I Here’s a red herrin for thee hon esty, ma lad!”- New York Tribune. Had to Get I p. Some years ago Dr. Oscar Blumen thal, the director of the Lessing theater in Berlin, had an unpleasant experience of the vigilance with which the author ities carry out their duties. In his comedy, the “Orient Reise, ” one of the characters was afflicted with a mother in-law of the most objection able kind. This lady died and, accord ing to the belief of her relatives, went to heaven. The prospect of a fresh ac quaintance with his dreaded mother-in law so terrified her son-in-law that he announced that, if this should be his fate, “when the resurrection comes I shan’t get ti]i. ” This was sufficient for the authori ties. Twenty-four hours after the pro duction of the piece an ominous blue envelope arrived at the Lessing theater containing a, peremptory order from the president of police that the lines in question should be immediately sup pressed, “as being calculated to wound the religious feelings of the lieges.
