Takomal Father trembles at the thought and sits down. A Philadelphia district memengor boy walked forty miles In nlno hours. IIo was oir on a fishing expedition, howover. Numerous centennials are reminders that our couijtry Is getting to be qui to old; old enough to bo bald and have bald headed oaglca, A new procoMot hardening ptosterof Paris has been discovered, whoroby It can bo ndantod to tho construction of flooring in plaluof wool Tho manufactured coffor bean can readily be distinguished from tha natural bean by tho property of sinking when Immersed In ether, as genulno coffee beans float on that liquid.

In all ovlls which admit n remedy, lmpn tlenco should bo avoided, bocauso It wastes that tlmo and attention in complaints which. if properly applied, might removo tho cause, Johnson. John Mealy, at Columbus, O., going in swimming with somo companions, dived Into twenty foot of wntor and nover enmo to tho surface. When his body was rccovorcd It was found cutanglod In tho meshes of a lot of loose wire, into which ho had plunged and which had hold him down. I bavo lived to know that tho great secret of human happiness is this: Nover suffer your energies to stagnate. Thooldadago of "too many Irons In tho Are" conveys nn untruth. You cannot hnvo too many poker, tongs nnd ail keep them nil going. Adam Clarke, Tho New York flsli commissioners havo requested all fishermen to report tho num ber of shad caught In tho waters of that state this year, with a vlow to guldo that ooay in future planting. This is tho first re corded suggestion that any serious deduction can bo tundo from fish stories. Poter Btcln, of St. Paul, walking along a bluff near Vermilion Falls, Minn., with two young ladles, waa asked by one of them to pick for her a sprig of honoysucklo blossoms that hung over the edge of tho precipice, IIo held to tho limb of a tree as ho reached over for tho flower, tho limb broko and ho fell sixty foot to the rocks and waa killed.

Olassn aro cracks when placed in hot water, bocauso, being a poor conductor of heat, tho outaldo becomes hot and expands, wbllo tho Interior Is still cool. Tho strain resulting from this unequal expansion causes tho fract ure. For this reason thin glass, which is Suickly heated through, is less likely to break nan tho thick, heavy varlotlos. General Manager Coleman, of tho North Paclflo Coast railroad, has been asked by a number of people living along tho lino of that road to change tho road bod abovo Duncan's Mills for a distance of some 100 yards, ao as to run the track through tho trunk of one of the largo redwoods In that neighborhood. Tho idea is to bavo the road tunnel, as it were, the high stump of ono of tho giants of the forest recently cut down. The tree trunk ia sixteen feet In diameter. The restoration of the famous "Wilmington Giant" situate on the Sussex estate of tho Duke of Devonshire, a few mllea Inland from Eastbourne, has been resolved upon. The figure, which U believed to bo of Celtio origin, pose in an attitude similar to that of the Co lossus of Rhodes,but it proportions are double those of that statue, and it is unlike any other representation either In barbarous or classical device, except an almost oxact delineation on one of the Ancient Justice gems. Thore are la tta vicinity British earthworks of a lunar form. Insects In the Ear. Dr. J. Herbert Claiborne, Jr., talking in The Medical Classics about removing insects from the ear, expresses tho belief that "awoet oil b perhaps tho best thing to keep tho in sect from moving. That is the first desider atum. The oil, by ita thick consistence, will so entangle and bedraggle the Insect's legs and wings that tho Intolerable nolso will be topped. If oil bo not at band uso any liquid that Is not poisonous or corrosive. Water will probably be within the reach of every one. This Is also moro ltablo to float him out, too, than cither sweet oil or glycerine. It has been suggested to blow tobacco smoko in tho ear to stupefy the insect. We cannot Indorso this advlco; tobacco smoLo blown into tho ear of a child has lwcn known to cause alarming symptoms. When tho move ments of tho Intruder have been arrested syringe tho car gently with warm water. All manner of Insects and bugs bavo been found In tho ear, but you can nover tell In a givou case who tho rude caller is knocking at the door of your brain until you have him out." Boston Budget. Vlenuu'a Water CoiuoBiptlon. In tho discussion of tho proposal of an Eng lish company to furnish Vienna with an ade quate water supply some intorobttug facts are furnished. Thu total population to bo sup plied Is estimated at 1,200,000 people and the proton t average dally consumption U given as 1 4 . 83 gallons to each person. That Incl udes the entire roiuumpt'on, both publla and pri vate. This low averago is explained by tho fact that what rfro known In America as tho "modern conveniences" of housekeeping, In volving the uso of largo amounts of water, such as bolters, baths, closets, -are practically unknown in Vienna. A Iiojso fitted with water ples in the American fashion would be a novelty in that city. Ban Franolsco Chronicle. AMERICAN FABLES.
