Now that General Slieridm is out of the waj, who will be the next patriot to resign (?) the presidency. Whats tlie matter with G rover reading hi 1HHI speech of acceptance and taking himself ut his word. We cant u fiord to love Grover just now, hut will wait patiently until November 1883 when ho will discover that he in a very small man and of little consequence in this great rrpuh lic. Nebraska, is not only one of li e thriftiest states in the union, hut she is growingjin intelligence as well as wealth; colleges and universities are springing up in all parts of the state. We hayc the State university at Lincoln which is one of the strongest institutions west of the Allc ghanies, the Methodist university that is being built now at Lincoln, Doane col lege at Crete, York college at York, another college at Bartlett out in the val ley, another at Orleans, two or three at Omaha and many others scattered out over the state, so that Nebraskans can soon claim the best state, "all sound" to ba found in the union. The IIkuald is in receipt of a very convincing little tract on Postal Tele graphy, gotten up by the New York board of trade in the form of questions addressed to prominent business men throughout England. The answers in every instance have been strong in the defense of government control of the telegraph lines, and gives many of the practical advantages derived from the postal tel egraph system. "While we nev er w ere exactly in favor of a postal tele graph, yet it is very evident that soni- thinjr must be done; if we cannot regu late the tolls and do something to make the service more cfiiccnt, then, by all means give us postal telegraphy. That sturdy Democratic organ, the Al bany Times, says that "the most earnci-t demand of the great portion of the fie or six million democratic voters in this country is that President Cleveland shall not be renominated." But on the other hand the modest mugwunps insist that they elected Cleveland, that he must 1 e renominated, and that no other democrat can be elected. Indeed, Mr. Curtis said some time ago that if Blaine should be nominated and some democrat otlx r than Cleveland should also be nominated neither of them could be elected. This, then, is a very grave question. Any man of ordinary common sense would suppt se that one of the two must be elected, b'U if the C.iief Mugwump is not th.it kind of a man, and we suppose he could prove that if Blaine ran alone he could no' be elected. Ergo, Cleveland must b. nominated and elected just to oblige the mugwumps. Disaffected democrats will govern themselves accordingly. Intel Ocean. "Toe popular mind cohfus?s the term cyclone and tornado to greater extent than almost any others, and yet these two classes of storms differ as greatly ns chills and fever differ from cholera. A tornado is a storm, and atmospheric dis turbance peculiar to North America. Its duration rarely exceeds, during the period of maximum force, ten minutes it any given locality. Its course is almos-" invariably from a southwestern to i northeastern point, and its path rarely ex ceeds 150 miles. Its center is the point of greatest destruction, and the latenr winds accompanying and attendant up on it ordinarily extend but a mile or tv on either side of its sides. A cyclor.e.oi the other hand, is a storm, born in th tropics, usually between the limits of tke trade winds. Its path varies in length from three to six thousand miles from its center. The center of cyclone, insteui of being the focus of force and the poini of the greatest velocity ofthe wind, is ab solutely calm. Instead of being mereh 50 or 100 yards in diameter, it vanes from 30 to 300 milr-a. The storm itself is almost exclusively confined to t!.e ocean, and it generally loses ifs force and cyclonic features when its center passes over the land. Its lateral winds are. however, exceedingly violent. Wlii'e they rarely reach the velocity of wild immediately attendant upon the tornado, yet they exist for periods of twenty-fos to seventy-two hours before and aftei the nassaee of the center, whereas th winds attendant upon a tornado rarcl; continue longer than a half hour fron the time of its occurrence." Geougjs Wamunoto.n Cmi.ua, the grtut Philadelphia newspaper philanthropist, lias recently placed a memorial window in St. Margaret's church, London, in memory of Milton. The English news papers have burdened the illustrious l'hihidclphian with kind words and ful some llattery until Minister Phelps, they say, is getting uneasy for fear Mr. Cleve land will uttempt to supersede him with Mr. Childs. Ttemerilea for Writer Cramp. Cluing.' all the conditions fn-quently, th height of the chair or of tho taMo, the kind of paper, using sometimes tli smoother, soinotinvs tho rougher Eort. llavo every description of eii and jn-holdc-r at hand, and change them fre quently. Don't try to write a handsome hand, for that is something that a jut son who has writer's cramp in jK-rfection cannot do. Bo t.itisfied with legibility, and this there nod be no difficulty alut. Tho trouble Bconis to l a I'ervous one, and very little things will afTi-ct it. The change from pajx-r that is ruled topajx-r that is not, and vice versa, will fteii give relief, and even .-i change from bl:;ek ink to blue- has lieen known to 1 lenelieial. Of cour.su you must have quill jens in your assortment, but their exclusive uso will not belp you. A friend who does a great deal of w riting has turned to the typewrit.-r for relief, but that is all that it allords. The fingers have got into the cramp habit, and in time the use of the tyjiewritcr wearies ami stiffens them. Nothing but an in finite variety of appliances, constantly changed, will afford the desired relief. Cau-sciie" in Boston Herald. Iycing with tlie Henna l'l.int. Tho lady who is about to undergo the dyeing process is stretched out at full length on her back, and is not allawed to stir. The paste is put on tho soles of tho feet, the toes included, about an inch thick; th'? upper part of the feet is never dyed. Soft leaves are then applied, as a covering, and tho whole is tightly wrapped in linen. The same process is gone through with the palm of the hand and the fingers. To keep the application in place, the lady must lie perfectly still all night, for no other parts of the body must receive tho dye, ancLa spot on the back of the hand or the finger joints would be a great dis figurement. At this time she is dreadfully teased by swarms of musquitoes and flies, but she dare not move to drive them away. In the upper classes slaves watch all night to keep away these pests with fans. The same process must be repeated for three nights to obtain the desired red tint; but, ence finished, it remains for a month, and cannot be washed out. "An Arabian Princess." Grizzly and IIufLilo- When there were buffalo on the plains the Manitoba grizzlies wero-great hunters of them. When a grizzly and a buffalo met there was always sure to be a con test, but it seldom lasted long, and the buffalo was usually tho victim. The buffalo would charge upon the bear, which awaited the onset of his foe erect on his haunches. As tho buffalo dashed upon him the bear threw himself aside, and with a blow as quick as lightning with one of his fore paws seldom failed to break his antagonist's neck. A qjrizzly bear has been known to engago in quick succession four and even five big buffalo bulls, and to kill every one of them. It frequently happened however, that some younger and more active bull than his companions succeeded in evading the fa tal blow of the grizzly's terrible fore paw long enough to give in turn a fatal thrust with his horn in the bear's side, punctur ing tho vitals, and making of the contest .; mutual slaughter. New York Sun. Educating; Arabian Girls. "Educate a girl!" exclaimed a Mo hammedan to Dr. Jessup, a missionary imong the Arabs, who was urging him 10 place one of his daughters in a girls' chool in Tripoli. "Educate a girl ! You might as well try to educate a cat!" Several aristocratic Mohammedan gentle men of Beirut were induced a few years ago to place their daughters in one of the Protestant schools there, and one of them remarked : "Would you believe it? I heard one of tho girls read the othe day, and she actually asked a question about the construction of a noun pre ceded by a preposition ! I never heard thn like of it! The things do distinguish and understand what they read after all !" The other replied: "Mash." Hah ! Mash aliab! The will of God be done 1" St. Louis Republican. Bess's Cherry Cough Syrup.

Their Work Wm Worth Koine-thing:. Th cows of a Georgia farmer got into the oa field of his neighl-or and de stroyed about ten bushels of jteas. There upon th latter farmer presented an ac count claiming for ten bushels of pea: at li-vty edits per bu- hel. The owner of the cows examined tho account and then said: "Iok ben-, my cows ate up ten bushels of your peas, but you know tho rules in gathering peas i.s to give one half for the gathering. So you see my cows were entitled to five bushels of those peas for picking them. Therefore I only owe yon for five bushels at sixty cuts, and that makes Here's your money." And at they settled. Chi cago News. The I'KVclioloqpy of II:uidwrit lug. The North American Keview prints a series of the autographs of Najiolcon, written at various e pochs iu his eventful life. Starting in bis early years with a bold and clear signature, it retains most of those characteristics in tho days of his greatest successes; but parallel with tho declining fortunes of the great man U a degeneration of his autograph, until at the end we have nothing more than the rudest, characterless scrawl. Tho auto graphs cannot but suggest tho ravaging changes in the nervous system that were the physiological concomitant of the tur moil raging in the hero's mind. Science. Condiments Promote Ingestion. The value of the various condiments in the preparation of combination dishes is great. Used with discretion they stimu late the appetite and promote digestion, red pppcr being specially valuable in this connection. Tke various herl and spices are exceedingly valuable; salt is absolutely necessary to health, despite all contrary assertions of the food cranks, and the condiments employed in making salads promote the digestion and assimila tion of all food eaten at the same time. Chicago Times. Spider That Capture Ilirds. The tarantula of South America is so large and powerful that it attacks birds. Bell, the naturalist, found a web stretched across a tree in which were entangled two birds, one in the clutch of the spider. In some places they often bite the feet of horses and cause their death. A nat ural ist in tho Amazon country reports seeing the native children leading about the huge spiders by threads of fibre wound :ibout their bodies, as 003 s do dogs in our own countrv. C. F. Holder. Paper Made from Wood, Making paper from wood pulp is one of tho greatest of modern inventions. Paper was formerly made of rags, but the demand for paper greatly exceeded tho supply of rags, and it is not luany years ago that oplar and other soft woods were ground up into pulp to take ttio place of rags, in all but the finer kinds of paper. Yet the wasps had beeu setting an example iu doing this for un told centuries. American Agriculturist. lionbon.s Instead of Love I-ettcr.i. Engaged couples in France do not ex change love letters .as we do; you never see a French girl with a 1-ox containing daintily tied package of letters, of which the key never leaves her possession ; such things are unheard of, but boxes of ln bons and exquisite flowers are sent each day with the card of the future husband. The Argonaut. Itibs Urokcn by Conliing. A London coroner has raised tho ques tion whether a man can cough himself to pieces. A broken rib was found in deceased lunatic, when medical evidence was brought forward to show that und ! certain abnormal conditions bones m:y La broken by muscular efforts, or even by a violent lit of .coughing.

Now, v. hen a house needs rebuIMing. th front of it is apt to be remodeled, not in th staid old stylo which has prevailed hitherto, but according to modern fasluou. New Orleans Times-Democrat. A Narrow Escnpe. Jones was so awkward the other even ing as to sit down on a gentleman's silk hat, crushing it flatter than a pancake. "And to think," was his comment, "that it might have been the new one I've just bought!" Jm'ge. Speed of tho Electric Current. Experiments on the speed of the electric current prove that if a proper conductor could be wound around the globe a signal parting from it at an3 point of it would return to the starting point in one-half a second.
