How She Wrote It. One of the qualities necessary to snc cess in any line of work is the ability to think and act practically upon the every day questions of life. A yonnj woman who had charge of the cataloguing of the accounts of a Philadelphia bank employed aa an as tiistant a girl apparently intelligent and well educated, to whom she gave the necessary directions for the work. One of the instructions was that, while she was to write out the full name where an abbreviation was used, she must never abbreviate a name. One day the young woman in charge found the following peculiar name and address, neatly written out by the as sistant, "Saml. Brown, trustee for George and Minnie Section, Academy of Natural Sciences." Somewhat surprised at the address, she asked to see the ledger from which it was copied. The ledger read, "Saml. Brown, trustee for Geo. and Min. Sec tion, Academy of Natural Sciences." The young woman had never studied either geology or mineralogy, but when the matter was explained to her she found vhat the word "Section" is not al ways a surname, and that "Geo." may be an abbreviation for something quite different from George. Youth's Com panion. . The Flimflam. A Customer Give me a dozen 6hirts. Shopkeeper Here you are, sir, the best quality. Customer How much? Shopkeeper One fifty each. Customer All right, wrap them up. Now, how much are these socks? Shopkeeper Fifty cents a pair. Customer Well, Til take three dozen pairs instead of the shirts. The socks are done up and the cus tomer starts for the door with the bundle. Shopkeeper Hold on there, you haven't paid for those socks. Customer Certainly not. I took them in exchange for the shirts. Shopkeeper Yes, but you didn't pay for the shirts. Customer Certainly not, because 1 didn't take them. Shopkeeper That's a fact, and he spends the next half hour trying to make his cash balance. New York Herald. Public Office la China. The Chinese system of government lacks entirely the progressive and uni fying element of popular election. The people have no voice in the choice of their rulers, and Lhe rulers consider the people as so many sheep to be fleeced. The .officials are paid starvingly low salaries, and many offices are openly bought. Corruption and extortion may therefore be said to be almost sanc tioned, the only restraint being the dread of insurrection and the power of guilds, clans and secret societies. There is im perfect protection from robbers and pirates, many villages preferring to sub sidize robber bands rather than to have to deal with the worse foim of robbery practiced by the officials. Westminster Review. Kniile Zola's Working Hours. ( Emile Zola's habits are extremely regu lar. He takes a walk every morning, usually leaving his house, whether at Medan or at Paris, about 9 o'clock. He lunches at midday, and writes from 1 o'clock till 6, receiving no visitors and transacting no business in the afternoon. He has a particular liking for large and massive pieces of furniture, so his writ ing table and his library chairs are of colossal proportions, as is also his ink stand, which is in bronze and represents a lion.

The irregularity of Maine's coast line is indicated by the fact that a Lubec man who bought a horse in Eastport was obliged to drive the animal more than forty miles to reach his home, al though the two towns are only three miles apart in a straight line. To the Eskimos of Labrador belong the honor of having discovered that the moon was the paradise of the good, and that the wicked are to be consigned to a cold cave in the center of the earth. The man who never went to the thea ter in bis life is usually the man who declares loudest against the immorality of the stage. Several women have been permitted to practice dentistry in Denmark after having passed the regular examinations. Waahlug Little ludiana. We were cainil at the Ilot Springs on the Lo Lo trail, made famous in In dian annals by the escape of Chief Jo seph and his band of Nez IVrces. Just alve us was a largo camp of Flathead who were making their fall hunt. On morning we were awakened by shouts ami cries. Evidently there was great excitement somewhere, and we promptly jumped up. It was just after daylight and cold clouds of steam were rising from the big basin shajMxl iiool at the foot of the granite wall, from which I toured a thick stream of lioiling water. The im1 was ho largo that at the lowor edge the water was almost cold. The nearer you approached to the place where the water burst from the rock the better chance you stood of getting boiled, At the edge, at a point whej-e the water was of a comfortable temperature, stood two Indians, one on the bank and the other on a stone in the water. Near by were a dozen other Indians guarding a numiHT of little Indian boys and girls who had nothing on and were howling and rrying. When we looked out of the tent the two Indians at the iool had an Indian boy, ne holding him by the feet the other by the hands, and were gravely swinging him backward and forward through the warm water, while he yelled at every dip. As soon as they had fin ished with him he was set upon the bank, and ran to the willow brush near by. Then the noise redoubled, for each child in the group guarded by the In dians feared that it was his turn. They all tried to escape to the brush, but their elders pursued and caught them, nntu the very last one had been put through the cleansing process. New York Sun. nig Field Ounit ami Their KfTecU If you insist on high velocity you have to add so much additional machinery to your gun carriage and have to so greatly strengthen its construction that you ! destroy its mobility, while even if you gain a long range you are still unable to j make use of your most efficient projec- tile at it. Moreover, since the remain ing velocity of its 6hrapnel is a truer measure of the value of a gun than its initial velocity, and the two are by no means directly proportional, it does not follow that we benefit as much as- we might expect by submitting to these disadvantages. Thus, the 13-pounder has an initial velocity of over 1,700 feet per second and a remaining velocity at 3,000 yards of 862 feet; while the 13-pounder, with an initial velocity of only 1,560 feet, has at the same range a remaining velocity greater by six feet per Becond than that of its rival. One of our highest authorities on field artillery has, indeed, recorded his opin ion, that, as regards the efficiency of shrapnel, we gain nothing by the in creased muzzle velocity of "the best field gun in Europe" at all practical ranges. Moreover, it is the attempt to squeeze out the last few extra feet that does all the harm. London Saturday Review. Modern Education. With all its novel modern powers and practical sense I am forced to admit that the purely scientific brain is miserably mechanical; it seems to have become a splendid sort of self directed machine, an incredible automaton, grinding on with its analysis or constructions. But for pure sentiment, for all that spon taneous Greek waywardness of fancy, for the temperature of passion and the subtler thrill of ideality, you might as well look to a wrought iron derrick. Science found education blundering peacefully along, cultivating half of the mind with charming results and letting the other die of disuse; it worked the startling miracle of electrifying this dead half into life and bringing it to perfect activity, and straightway, satis lied with this remarkable achievement, it proceeded to neglect the ideal half which the classics had made so much of and caused it to perish. It has substi tuted a new sort of half ina:i for the old one. Clarence King in Forum. Skill in the Wrist. It is wonderful what a part the wrist plays in exercises in which physical skill and delicacy are required. After a man learns to play billiards well enough to be familiar with the cushions and the English, the important thing to cultivate is his stroke. It is the hardest thing alKut billiard playing to get a good stroke, and sometimes the greatest play ers "fall down" because they lose con trol of it. Now, the stroke wholly de pends on the action of the wrist. Jake Schaeffer, or any good player, will make a shot of seven cushions with less ap paient force than a beginner will exert in getting three. This is due to the su perior wrist movement. It's the same way with violin playing. The quality and toucli all depend on WTist manipulation. So with curving a baseball. Great pitchers always work a strong wrist movement on the ball as it leaves the hand. If they didn't it wouldn't curve at all. St. Louis Globe Democrat. (ioml Story About a Saeo Lawyer. A Saco lawyer lost his office key and with it, on the same bunch, the keys to his safe and house. There is a spring lock on his office door, and he concluded that he mast have left it in his office and have come out and locked the door. He accord ingly borrowed a long ladder and crawled through the back window of his office. No keys were to be seen, and :tfi-r cogitating over the peculiar state of af fairs he at last let himself out, and there on the outside of the lock were hanging the keys. Baagor (Me.) Commercial. Beating the Karth. The highest velocity ever given to a cannon ball is estimated at a mile in 3.2 seconds.. The velocity of the earth at the equator, due to its rotation on its axis, is a mile in 3.6 seconds. There fore, if a cannon ball were fired due west, and conld maintain its initial velocity, it would beat the sun in his aj parent journey around the earth. New York Journal. PLACES OF WORSHIP.
