The Salta In the Ocean.
The salts of the sea have fed through
out all time countless living things
which have througed its water and
whose remains now form the rocks of
continents or lie spread in beds of un
known thickness over CG,000,000 square
miles of the 143,000,000 square miles of
the ocean’s floor. They have lent the
substance to build the fringing reefs
of the land and all the coral islands of
the sea, and there are at present on
the basis of an average salinity of 3Vj
per cent in the 290,700,000 cubic miles
of water which make up the ocean’s
1 90,000,000,000,000,000 tons, or 10,173,
000 cubic miles, of salt. This is suffi
cient to cover the areas of all the
lands of the earth with a uniform layer
of salt to a depth of 1,000 feet.
' a HEARTY LAUGH. ' t
It Is ft Dleiftiitx. Tliin Reflex of a San*
■ hiny Sonl.
The cold, chilling atmosphere which
sometimes pervades a reception or oth
er social gathering is often entirely
dissipated by the hearty, ringing laugh
ter of some simple, genuine soul who
Is bubbling over with fun. The stiff
ness and constraint which a minute
before embarrassed the whole com
pany are relieved as if by magic.
There is something in genuine, spon
taneous humor which removes all re
straint, scatters embarrassment, re
lieves tension and welds souls together
as no introduction or conversation can.
It puts the shy at ease, dissipates prej
udice, gives confidence to the timid and
reassures the shrinking soul. The
cheery smile or the spontaneous laugh
awakens sympathy and arouses feel
ings of friendliness. It seems to melt
all barriers.
Oh, what riches live in a sunny soul!
What a blessed heritage is a sunny
face, to bfe able to fling out sunshine
wherever one goes, to be able to scat
ter the shadows and to lighten sorrow
laden hearts, to have power to send
cheer into despairing souls through a
sunny and a radiant heart! And if,
haply, this heritage is combined with
a superb manner and exquisite per
sonality, no money wealth can com
pare with its value.
This blessing is not very difficult of
acquisition, for a sunny face is but a
reflection of a warm, generous heart.
The sunshine does not appear first
upon the face, but in the soul. The
glad smile that makes the face radiant
is but a glimpse of the soul’s sunshine.
—O. S. Marden in Success Magazine.
UNIQUE FEATS.
Odd Physical Tricks That People
Here and There Can Do.
A group of traveling men were dis
cussing unique feats and physical
tricks that people here and there
can do.
“1 know a Chicagoan,” said one,
“who can whistle a tune and hum its
accompaniment at the same time. He
whistles through a flat, not through tho
usual round hole, and the deep, musical
accompaniment together with the shrill
sweetness of the whistle makes a
mighty attractive thing to hear.”
“I knew a barber,” said the second
drummer, “who had a unique way of
cracking nuts. Ho wrould place a nut
between the back of his head and a
stone or brick wall, and then he would
give himself a sharp rap on the fore
head with his fist. The nuts would
crack open every time.”
“A Manayunk man,” said the third,
“can give his head a jerk that turns
back his eyelids. He has to turn them
down again with his fingers. This is
an ugly feat, and I’m glad It is rare.”
“I knew at school,” said the fourth
drummer, “a boy named Bucky Ad
ams who could play tunes by snapping
his fingers. The thumb and first two
fingers of each hand would work away
busily, and forth would come the clear
est, sweetest, faintest music. I used to
sit with Bucky Adams, and many a
tedious school session would he make
shorter and pleasanter with this odd
gift.”—-New York Press.
i urc uuve uu.
If olive oil congeals in freezing
weather, it is a sign that it is adulter
ated with lard. Very few bottles of so
called olive oil will stand this simple
test—in fact, we seldom get the pure
thing, and, if we did, the chances are
that we could not eat it. At least, that
was the experience once upon a time of
one woman who used a great deal of
mayonnaise dressing upon her table
and had supposed that she doted on
olive oil. An Italian friend bestowed
upon her a flask of the peculiarly green
fluid. To her surprise, not one of her
family, herself included, could bear its
taste. There was a tang to it which
showed them that they had never eaten
olive oil before and that they never
wanted to eat it again. So they gave
the flask away.—New York Telegram.
Thackeray’s Apology.
Thackeray once wrote in a note to a
friend, alluding to an incident occa
sioned by one of his articles in Punch:
“I thought over the confounded matter
in the railroad and wrote instantly on
arriving here a letter of contrition and
apology to Henry Taylor for having
made what I see now was a flippant
and offensive allusion to Mrs. Taylor. I
am glad I have done it. I am glad
that so many people whom I have been
thinking bigoted and unfair and un
just toward me have been right and
that I have been wrong, and my mind
is an immense deal easier.”
A Great Idea.
“My new play is sure to make a hit,”
said the great actress. “It gives me an
opportunity to display twenty new
gowns."
“Gracious!” exclaimed her friend.
“How many acts?”
“Only four, but in one of them the
scene’s at a dressmaker’s.”—Philadel
phia Press.
Talents.
As to the great and commanding tal
ents, they are the gift of Providence
in some way unknown to us. They rise
where they are least expected. They
fail when everything seems disposed to
produce them, or at least to call them
forth.—Burke.
Evolution.
"There is an old proverb that a man
becomes what he eats.”
“Then I suppose all the cannibals
will be missionaries in time.”—Cleve
land Leader.
Philosophy does not regard pedigree
She did not receive Plato as a noble
but made him^ so.—Seneca.
