Distance Traveled by one wagon. Macon Telegraph. a small matter for Macon’s “black maria” or hurry-up wagon to make a run for the distance of two or three blocks ana return with a prisoner for the station house, but when one fig ures the distance that this con veyance travels in a year he is impressed with the idea that short measurements added together make long aistances; that atoms united make big bodies; that pen nies make dollars, and that no af fair in this life is so small or in significant as to be without some purpose or value. The “black maria” makes an average of five runs a day; the dis tance. traveled each day is about six miles. The vehicle during the past three months has made 442 runs, estimated by the patrol driv ers at o68£ miles. This much- used wagon has been in service in Macon for six years, and it is fig ured from the three months’ rec ord that the wagsn has traveled in the city to and from the patrol boxes during the past six years 18,560 milps. It took 10,560 runs to make this number of miles. When one thinks of the many times the horses are hitched and unhitched and considers the short distance to all the boxes, he is bound to conclude that it is by far the most used wagon if at the same time the most dreaded vehi cle that travels Macon’s streets. The distance traveled by the black maria is equal to over a half of the circumference of the earth and one and one-fourth times the earth’s diameter. The distance traveled by the wagon is equal to fourteen times the distance from Macon to New York; fifteen and a half times the distance from Ma con to Chicago; seventeen times the distance from Macon to Balti more ; 154 times the distance from Macon to Atlanta; four times the distance from New York to Liver pool ; over twice the distance be tween San Francisco and Hong Kong, and twice the distance be tween New York and the Cape of Good Hope. The Black Maria has traveled 286,887,600 feet, or 3,436,651,200 inches. The two black horses that are now in service at the station fur nished the motive-power that car ried the wagon over this space. If a horse takes three feet every step the two horses have taken 190-, 924,866 steps in traveling this dis tance. Each revolution of the wheel carries the wagon nine feet, therefore the wheels on the wagon have revolved 31,820,833 times. All the world seeks the company and companionship of those who look on Hie bright side of life. It is greatly a matter of habit. If you have difficulty in seeing the bright side just always stop and consider how much worse it might have been. The true Y enjoyment of life comes from contentment found ed on good health, and a habit of seeing the bright side, which makes cheerfulness. A Use for “Bai Eggs. The bad egg, says an exchange, is generally supposed to be an ut terly useless product, and yet at least on& enterprising Philadel phian is doing a lucrative and highly respected business by turn ing a thoroughly decayed egg to ] good account, and enabling it to add its modest share to the sum total of American wealth and prosperity. During the recent hot spell thousands of eggs were ren dered what appeared to be worth less. En route to the city from the Wfest the heat destroyed nu merous crates, and many eggs were found aseles9 by the time they reached Philadelphia. Nat urally you would think these bad eggs would be thrown away. Not so. Nor is the egg dealer even compelled to pay for hauling them away It is here that the enterpris ing dealer in bad eggs asserts his ingenuity and usefulness in the community. He visits the com mission merchant and offers to haul them away free of charge. FutLermore, when egg are scarce, he pays at the rate of two and thr§e cents a dozen for the decay ed products, but now when thei heat causes such a large percen tage to be rendered spoiled he does not have to pay anything; the dealer is glfid enough to have his assistance in hauling the spoiled and useless eggs away. These he takes to the factory, and they are there converted into a solution used in tanniDg. The solution los es all offensive order in its prepar ation, and is sold to the tanner by the gallon. The latter uses it in the seasoning of the leather, calf skin particularly responding to its application. It is used to whiten the leather, an experienced tanner says, and also to fill in the grain.
