To persons of a distinetivelynL,rous
or sensitive organization, the season
of thunderstorms is often a ported of
apprehension, if not of actual daily ter.
rots. Perhaps no array of reassuring
Mete ar philvsophloal argument will
furnish rnuoh comfort' to those who
live in ()existent fear of death by
lightning; but a recent Taport upon
the aubjeot by Professor Henry of the
Uhiited States WeatherBureau puts
the wetter in stela a way as to show
how unreasonable is their fear, It
hppears that the total number of
deaths by lightning In .the United
States last year was five hundred and
sixty,two. ;That twee enters than
usual, ;yet it lees than ce-tenth
the number of those who lost their
lives in railway, accidents during the
same period; and a glance at the num-
ber of deaths among those who follow
the sea, or those, even, who pursue any
one of a number of other familiar oc-
cupatione, will also bo reassuring.,
Bue because thechance of being
struck by lightning is really so small
is no reason for neglecting wise pre.
motional' Professor Henry lays
special stress upon the danger of wire
clotheslines, whioh, he says, not only
imperil the life of the laundress, but
endanger the house to which they are
attached, A dozen persons were kill-
ed last yeas' while removing clothes
from swab lines or standing near them
during a thunderestorm, and a num-
ber of houses supplied with them were
$et on fire.
Accepted popular expressions always
have a sound basis of truth. It may
comfort the timid, therefore, to note
that "about as much chance as he
bas of being struck by lightning" is
still regarded as one of the strongest
expressions in the language.
COACHING IN ENGLAND.
Thousands or Pe„p'c i'Iuw Great Britain
From a Roo Seal.
Every year about 4,030 people, mostly
Americans and Australians, traverse
the whole of Great Britain in imitation
old-fashioned coaches says the London
Daily Mail. This year quite 10,000
Aunerieans alone have booked up in ad-
vance complete tours in this way, and
yet very few indeed 00 our own coun-
trymen even know that one coach ie
now so linked with another through-
out the whole of the English provinces
that the railway can be almost totally
ignored.
The revival of ooache.s some years
ago ended in a dead loss to those who
undertook it, for the very good reason
that things were done on tbo most
lavish and unoommeroial scale, Nowa-
days nearly every coach running from
a London hotel is a source of hand -
IMAM profit, for nearly all the coaches
are run as commercial speculations as
well as for pleasure. When a good
route is chosen they cannot be a fail-
ure, for the reason that before they
etart a certain number of persons
living along the road guarantee to
make or pay for CVO many journeys in
each season,
But this is about all that is known
on the subject by most Englishmen,
though thousands of Americans write,
months in advance, asking that a com-
plete coach route 'may be devised for
them throughout England.
A coaching agent declares that at
-he end of each of four seasons past
from three to four thousand persons
ham returned to America and to our
Antes who have seen the whole of
`Englund, and a good part of Scotland
and Ireland, from well-alppointed
coaches that took them from inn to
inn, and he further avers that he is
understating rather them exaggerat-.
ing when he says that quite 10.000 per-
sons have already had these rail -ignor-
ing journeys arranged for them this
year. t

HOW.
44.4, NllstvSlirGtrdll.,HOW TOO MAKE THE SIIHEI? PAY.
Sheep have an advantage over most
farur anlrnals by virtue of the inark-
stable qualities of the earouse and
wool. Wheel wool is in fair demand
at reasonable prices it should pay for
the keep of the sheep, with interest
on the investment; and sometimes a
little profit additional. If the wool
will do this why/ should a farmer ask
for more? Sometimes the cry le
heard that wool does not pay, What
is meant by this generally is that a
certain good profit from the wool
,lona cannot he made each year over
and above expenses. Even St wool
does net pay In this way the sheep
can be roadie to pay. .if the wool
will bring in enough to pay for the
keep of the sheep anal the interest,
link. at the profits that should be
made in many other ways. The lambs
should than represent clear profit,
and after the ewe has seen its best
days of usefulness there is always a
market for her. Here Is another pro-
fit that is not oommonly counted in,
for the east of the ewe is figured up
at so mach a year, and the price re-
ceived for it hardly seems to pay for
the keeping.
One must, in carder to be fair with
the sheep, figure out the different
profits from the wool, the lambs and
the mutton. It is a poor year, in-
deed, when the wool oannot be made
td pay for thel keep of the sheep, and
with prices as they are now it can
be made to bring in a good deal more.,
One man of Genres makes more in
this way than another, because ha is
able to study the economy of feed-
ing better, and sometimes the condi-
time for raising food cheaply are in
his favor. Bust nd ane who attempts
to raise sheep for a living can afford
to neglect intimate and constant'
study of this side of the question
The feeding that will keep the sheep
in good condition and cost the least
possible sum is what we are all aiming
mt. Tho Iambs should, be made a.re-
gular part of the crop, almost as re-
gular as the wool, and the lambs must
be raised at the right season to bring
the greatest profit. A good ewe
teat will drop a lamb regularly and
rear it without truublel is a desirable
animal. But there is always a ten-
dency to keep good ewes that produce
valuable wool and good lambs too
long. Remember that the carcass of
the ewe itself is a part of the bust,
nese, and do not keep the animal so
long that it will die an your hands
00' have no marketable value. It is
better to raise a few crops of wool
and •lambs from her, and then send
her to market, raising meanwhile a
good lamb to take her place. In this
way we keep up a constant change
in the personnel of the flock, and neve
ece have any old creatures that have.
outlived their usefulness.
MUSTY HAY.
Du not feed musty hay to dairy
cows, nor in fact any kind of fod-
der that is musty, says au exchanges
Some believe that this mustiness
will not pass through into the milk,
and it may be so, but we are suspi-
cious of the truth of the assertion,!
1't is a fact that there is a differ -
lance, in the Player 01 butter made on
June grass and the butter made in
the winter when the cows are fed on
dry hay. If this difference in feed
makes any difference in flavor, why
may it not make a good deal of dif-
fe.rence if ,the feed be particularly,
bad T Moldy feed is a bad thing to
have around in any case and should be
thrown out. Using It as cow bed-
ding, is likely to make the matter
worse, for the whole sttenle will be
scented with it, and in the morning
when the milk is drawn it will cer-
tainly be tainted and this taint will
grow us the cream ripens. It is not
advisable to use this, for bedding and
depend on airing the barn enougil,
in the morning to get the smell outl
This would be seldom done at all, and
WIban done it would generally be
done in a eery imperfect manner,.
The presence of spoiled feed is very
often the cause of poor butter.
SUCCESSFUL BUTTER MAKING.
The firer and foremost essential is
absolute cleanliness, and this ap-
plies iia the po'w, stable, the milk pails,
milk pans and all other utensils, the,

milk is brought in, strain) it 45 soon as
possible, filling each milk pan half

METALS GET TIRED.
They Need Rest, dust 116 Do Orgaate Struc-

It is a fact of comparatively resent

metals lose their vitality from repe-
titions cif shocks seed strains, and
may be said to suffer from fatigue
—that is, they may be. worked till
their moleoules fail to hold togethi
ex, and then they are In a state of ex-
haustion.
As is familiarly known, bars of tin,
rods of brass and wires of any me-
tal; will sarmeste, owing to fatigue, if
bent backward and forward continu-
ously. But by careful experiments,
however, the fact is made to appear
that a remedy exists Por this ca.udi-
tion of metals, if the overstrain does
not border on rupture, and this rem-
edy is very much like that which is
applied in the ease of an overworked
human frame—namely, rest.
Feather -edged tools recover their
vitality better them any other. Of
course, the length of time required for
this rest varies with different metals,
and the amount of strain to which
they have been subjected.
Hard metals, such as iron and steel,
use up one os' two years' time in the
Protests. On the other hand, sett
metals, like lead, retain their co-
liesive foi'oe longer, and also require
less ,rest.

THE FUTURE OF CHINA,

The Chinese Are the hu•enlors et Varloas

"Fifty years from now China will
be a great manufacturing country,"
said Prof. W. 3, McGee. " Her present
territory will be grldironed with rail-
roads her deposits of coal which are
said to bo vast, will be cantributing
millions of tons per annum to the fuel
supply of the world, and the products
of her iron mines will govern market
prices in such commodities. She will
build machine shops and ships, and in
teetotal lines of industrial activity,
where handwork is indispensable, she
will be pre-eminent. It risme to me.
not at all unlikely that China may be
the shoemaker and clothier of the
world half a century hence.
" There is not anything the Chinese
can not do if they are told how to
da it. Loft to themselves they would
have no industrial future. The Chinese
brain is not up to an appreciation of
Industrial progress; it does not know
how to take hold of industrial pros-
lams. To -day the empire is an im-
mense aggregation of stored energy
waiting to be utilized. During past
ages it has been developing a popula-
tion whioh la capable of doing one-
foueth of the manual labor of the
world. Add to this population one-
tenth of 1 per Dent. of intelligent for-
eigners, and the Chinese will soon find
themselves in the trent rank of pro-
gressive nations. They nave rue phy-
sieve ability, and sufficient intellig-
ence to do what they acre told, besides
which they are remarkably oapable of
industrial organization. They can imi-
tate any process and reproduce any
product. All they need is proper in-
struction, and requisite control and a
little time."
The Chinese consider themselves oar
superior's on many grounds, but large-
ly because they were the inventors of
various arts which are fundamental
in our own civilization. They were the
first.
DISCOVERERS OF INK,
though even at the present day they
employ by preference what is com-
monly known as India ink, which is
a solid substance, composed mainly of
Lamp blaok and gum, rubbed in a sau-
car to make the requisite solution. In
place of a pen, they utilize the camel's
Bair brush, which is much better ad-
apted for producing their curious
hieroglyphics.
Papei"wwas Drat manufactured by
the Chines in the first century, A.D.
Up to that time they wrote on thin
allps of bamboo, the instrument em-
ployed being not a pen or brush, but
a pointed tool. The books of those an-
cient days were made by nutting the
bamboo, after removing the bark, into
thin sheets, whish were strung to-
gether, so as to compose a fairly com-
pact, though clumsy volume.
Later on it was found better to
pound the bamboo to a paste in a mor-
tar, together with water, and the re-
sulting substance was spread upon a
flat surface to dry. This, in fact, was
the first paper in the modern accep-
tation of the term, though the Egyp-
tian papyrus, made from a kind of
reed that grew along the banks, of the
Nile, antedated it by several centuries,
After a while the manufacture of this
paper was improved by adding to it
silk and other =Aerials. The Tar-
tars, borrowed the art, substituting
cotton, whish WAS plentiful in their
country, and from them the Arabs ac-
quired it, using linen instead of cot -
tour. It was in this way that paper-
making was first brought into Eur-
ope, being introduced by the Arabs.
About the year 000 A.D., printing
was discovered in China—nearly 500
years, that is to say, before the art
was known in Europe. The first step
was the engraving of characters on
stone, the marks being tranaferred to
the paper in white on a black ground.
Then came wooden blanks with raised
letters, which are employed even at
the present day in China, being pre-
ferred to movable types, inasmuch as

Silk is said to have been discovered
by a lady named Chang -Ti, a wife of
the 'Emperorl Iloang-Ti. Since her
day theErnpresses of China have bred,
reared and fed silkworms as an
amusement, reeling the aoccons and.
weaving the silk. In the gardens of
the palace at Pekin is a little forest
of mulberry trees, and on the occaston
of an annual festival, the Empress,
with the prino]pal ladies of her court,
gather mulberry leaves for the worms.

One of the most notable of the arts
Invented by the Chinese was the man-
ufacture of gunpowder. The date of
the discovery is wholly in doubt, but
Marco Polo, the famous traveler, who
visited the far East in the thirteenth
century, said of the people: " They
raise tempests with flashing light-
ning and peals of thunder." At that
period the explosive eubstanoe was
used only for fireworks, however,
From China knowledge of the art was
carried to the I3yzantinee, who were
the first to employ gunpowder in war-

Except in France, which still prefers!
its own "Greeswioh time" may be
said to be known wherever count of

the time for the greater part of the

Each country, et course, bas its own
standard of time. But when the rami-
fications of international interests be-

advisable for commercial reasons 'to
adopt a universal time standard ap-
plicable to all countries, based on
hour measurement from the same
meridian.
By common consent, practically all
countries, except France, adopted
Greenwich mean time as oentral or
governing, and to -day Holland and
Belgium use actual Greenwich time.
Were the whole world divided into
time sections, using the standard time
on what a:re called, governing or hour

out any of the calculations aeoes
sary for those countries, which, like
Preece, decline to follow the lead giv-

It is a popular fallacy that foe the
friendless stranger, Landon is an eerie,
lonely place. ltiohasd Jefferies gave
permanent expreavon to dila feeling
when he described his tragic and mad-
dening solititude amid the seething
crowds of the City.
The trouble with the friendless
stranger is that he never goes the
right way to discover friends. A cur-
sory dip into the London Directory
should serve to convince him that
there are philanthropists by the score
willing and anxious to improve his
mint], and perhaps even his purse.
About sixty benevolent societies are
at week in Loudon collecting sebscrip-
tiens and doling out help. Their
obarity appears to cover any native
from any habitable part of tha globe.
It might, perhaps, be difficult for a
prosperous Red Indian to locate his
friends in the London Dire tore,
There is no society for prosperous Red,
Indians. They appear to have been
unaccountably overlooked. In Fins-
bury -pavement there is a Strangers'
Friend Society, and our Red Indian
might tbink the title a promising one.
The objects of this society, however,
are besevolent, and ha would have to
dock himself of his prosperity before
he could come within the scope of its
articles of aesooiatlon. 8 bankrupt
Eskimo might apply to, the Society of
Friends of Foreigners in Distress. Yet
if he came from any part of the ice
regions over which the British flag
has waved, even those hospitable
dooms might be closed, since an b su Es-
kimo konua o the Queen could not

"trickly speaking, be classed as a for-
eigner.
He would have to be a very smart
Eskimo who could successfully pass
himself off as a "Persecuted Jew" or
a "Pour, Pinus Clergyman," or as a
"Distresse,d Widow." Evem a "Boxer"
would be better off, since he could ap-
ply to the Strangers' Rest for Asia-
tics, and for Hottentots, Africans, and
benigbted South Sen Islanders.
But stay; should the iced Indian and
the Eskimo happen to consume too
much firewater, they would immed-
iately become qualified for at least,
one society. In Alexandra road there
is a Society for the Study of Ialebrie-
ty. The friendless pair might per-
chance be welcomed there.
