ui BOW A CHARGE OF SHOT
TRAVELS. °
When standing within a few
yards of the gun's muzzle at the
time of discharge, a person would
be amazingly astonished were he
only able to see the shot as they
go wizzing by. Experiments in
instantaneous photography have
proved to us that the shot not only
spread out, comet -like, as they fly
but they string out one behind
the other to a much greater dis-
;;;` tanoe than they spread. Thus,
with a cylinder gun, when the
first shot of a charge reaches a
target that is forty yards away,
the last shot is lagging ten yards
behind. Even with the choke -
bore sun some of the shot will lag
'behind eight yards in forty. This
accounts for the large swath that
is mown in a flock of ducks on
which a charge of shot fall? just
right. About five per cent. only
of the charge of shot arrive sim-
uitaneouely at the target, but the
balance of the first half of the
charge is so close behind that a
a birds muscles are not quick
enough to got out of the way, al-
though those who have watched
sitting birds when shot at have
often seen them start as if to fly
'when the leading shot whistled
by them, only to drop dead as
they were overtaken by the lead-
en hail.
is
ALL IN THE SAME BOAT.
Sim Coy, the notorious liquor
- alderman of Indianapolis, recent-
ly pardoned from the penitentiary
by President Harrison, thinks he
is as good as the man who makes
license laws and the voters who
Support them. In hie book just
Froin the press he says :
"A man always ought to be
ready to give a reason for hie
choice of callings. Some say
liquor is disreputable. If that is
true, the laws are disreputable.
If the -man who sells liquor is dis-
reputable, the man who makes
J.lquor must also be disreputable,
and the man who drinks liquor
belongs to the same class.
There is no way that I know
of for the people of the state,
their representatives, the law
makers, the men who distill
the brew, make wine and cider,
those who sell (whole -sale and re-
tail) and the men who drink to
escape the same verdict unless
the court that tries the case is so
warped and prejudiced, so moan
and contemptible, as to punish a
foe and let a friend escape."

To waste is wiei ee. There Ore
better ways. to spend money and
goods than to waste them. It id
the poorest use they can be put
to.
To desire the good opinion of
othere ie natural,land supplies a
powerful motive tor conduct that
shall merit that good opinion.
But if this desire be not balanced
by a selfroapect which desires
even more—the approval of one's
own conscience—it will lead its
yeleaser into the temptation:of
rieDisc etion and good -nature
have always been looked upon as
the distinguishing ornaments of
female conversation. The woman
whose price is above rubies has no
particular in the character given
of her by the wise man more en-
dearing than that she openeth her
mouth with wisdom and in her
tongue is the law of kindness.
An act of kindness, a word of
sympathy, may render the whole
line of life different from what it
would otherwise have been.
There are crises in many a lite
when the course it shall take for
weal or for woe depends on a
slight influence—almost a single
word. How careful then should
we be that our influence may at
all times be in the right direction!
No action in our lives stands
alone. Cause and consequence
link the past to the future through
the present with a chain as strong
as fate and as indissoluble as death
with life. All that we do to -day
is as a seed -bed whence we garner
the harvest of to -morrow; and, if
we look back, we shall find that
some of the most important events
of our lives had their rise in some
of the most unimportant and
trivial accidents.
We make a fatal mistake to de-
vote the whole of our strength
and energy to wooing prospero us
circumstances and warding off
adverse ones. Much of it must
of course be thus employed, but
enoungh of it shoula be reserved
for the reception, in the right
spirit and with the right aims, of
whatever comes. Bacon tells us
that the virtue of prosperity is
temperance and the virtue of ad-
versity is fortitude; but it depends
upon ourselves whether we gather
these and other precious fruits
from either of those plants.
GEMS OF THOUGHT.
The mass of trifles makes ma-
gnitude.
If woman lost us Eden, such as
she alone can restore it.
The sweetest thing in life is the
unclouded welcome of a wife.
The angriest person ir. a con-
troversy is the ono most liable to
be in the wrong.
The life of a true man cannot be
a life of mere pleasure; it must be
above all things a life of°duty.
The one who will be found in
trial capable of great acts of love is
always doing considerate small
ones.
The foolish and wicked practice
of profane cursing and •swearing
is a vice so mean and low that
every person of sense and char-
acter detests and despises it.
Industry is essentially social.
No man can improve either him-
self or his neighbor without
neighborly help: and to better the
world is to set the world to work
together.
No man can say whether he is
rich or poor by turning to his led-
ger. It is the heart that makes
the man rich. He is rich or poor
according to what be is, not ac-
aarding to what he has.
Labor is life; successful labor is
life and gladness; and eueeessful
labor with high aims and just ob-
jects brings the fullest trust, and
happiest life that can be lived up-
on the earth.
. A. certain amount of opposition
is a great help to a man. Kites
rise against and not with the
wind. Even a head -wind is bet•
ter than none. No man over
worked his passage anywhere in a
dead calm.
The secret of tho so-called lucky
man's luck will, with some excep-
tions, of course, be found in some-
thing he has thoughtfully, calcul-
atingly done, and not in a ,jumble
of accidents.
Economy is a virtue which is
needed everywhere. No mattor

out the young children and the
old men and the sick and impo.

tion for nearly the whold popula-
tion. It is possible to believe,
that the Romans constructed a
circus to hold the entire popula-
tion of Rome capable of going to

case were there only 4,000,000 of
inhabitants. But suppose there
were only 1,000,000 inhabitants,

that it would never have been pos-
sible to half fill the circus.

in a loud voice :

He appeared to choke up right
there, and while clearing his voice
it was noticed that two or three
men slid out of the back door, sev-
eral others turned their backe,and
one man suddenly went to sleep.
Each one assumed an attitude or
demeanor calculated to discourage
the stranger, but he presently got
his voice and continued ;

SCHOOL TROUBLES
Says a writer in the .New York
Sun : — "A. conservative and
thoughtful man, ;reflecting upon
the so-called advancement of
women in this cycle of progress,
said that it interested him deeply,
but for their own sake, he would,
if he could, put them all back in
the homes again as they were, nnd
make men put their broad shoul-
ders to the wheel and fight life's
battles for them. Now, the chief
reason why woman startles the
world by entering new and singu-
lar profession and trades is simply
because no particular man has
offered to put his special shoulder
to the wheel upon whose revolu-
tions depend her bread and but-
ter: A woman who had served
madly years among women in one
of the departments at Washington
said concerting the hue and cry
men raised about women neglect-
ing home duties for public work,
that if men would provide the
homes she would guarantee that
women would not refuse to accept
them, and that she never knew a
good woman yet who wouldn't
rather marry the man she laved
than hold the highest office the
nation gives to its citizens.' The
only woman I have ever known
to allow her profession to stand
between her and the man she
cared for, was a professor in an
Eastern .college where men were
not admitted as instructors. Her
determination to devote her life
to her work lasted nearly a year,
and then she was )married• and
went to painting china plaques,
and admittedthat she was never so
happy in her life, just as naturally
asif she didn't know all aboutGreek
roots and Latin declensions. De-
wite all the clubs and socitios,
women's .colleges and training
schools, the instincts of women
are in the main unaltered and
their ideals as sweet as when
Isaac loved Rebecca and Boaz
courted Ruth."
HOW LARGE WAS ANCIENT
ROME?
After carefully examining all
thedata we have, all the statements
various ancient writer of who
allude to it, and all the facts which
seem to bear en the question, I am
convinced that in estimating the
number at 4,000,000 I am rather
understating than overstating it.
It is much more probable that it
was the larger than it was the
smaller. De Quincy also esti-
mated the inhabitants of Rome at
4,000,000. I will only cite one
fact and then leave the question.
The Circus Maxiaims was con-
structed to hold 250,000, or, ac-
cording to Victor, at a later per-
iod, probably, 385,000 spectators.
Taking the smaller number, then,
it would be 1 in 16 of all the in-
habitants if' there were 4,000,000.
But as one-half the population
was composed of slaves, who must
be struck out of tho spectators,
when the circus was built there
would be accommodation then for
1 in 8 of the total population, ex-
cluding slaves. Reducing again
the number one half by striking

THE WEST AS IT IS.
The Stratford Herald was shown a
letter on Friday from Tacoma, W. T.,
written by a Canadian -born citizen of
that place to hie mother, whoresides
in this city. This letter gives a pen
picture of that much puffed up country
as it really is. By permission we quote:
"Tacoma is a very poor place for work-
ingmen
of any trade to come to. They
cannot get steady work, being laid off
every little while. There are hundreds
of idle men all over this oountry. All
the.eccounts you see in the paper about
this country are black lies, written by
real estate men and speculators, to
bring eastern peqple out here to invest
what little they have. There is very
little land in the State now that is fit
for anything after the timber is off, it
being nothing but and and gravel beds.
All accounts that say otherwise are
lies got up to delude people. There are
hundreds of people who came here
from the east wishing themselves back
again, but they cannot get enough
ahead to carry them half way. A man
in the east earning $1 per day at steady
work is better off than the man out
here at $2.50 or $3 per day because
you cannot get steady work and every-
thing costs so very high as it has to be
brought into the country from other
places. * • The city is full of
thieves—men become desperate on ac-
count of not being able to earn an hon-
est living. The boom is about over and
the bottom will soon fall out the one-;
horse city of Tacoma," Another son Y
of the same lady writes of his intention
to leave Tacoma and trying a new piece
of country that is being opened up 70
miles distant. No comment is neces-
sary.
PIN MONEY.
How much money • 1oes a young
woman need for her comfortable
and adequate support? is the pro-
blem Referee J. Alfred Davenport
has found it necessary to solve in
a case• involving the expenses
of a New York girl who is a
'ward in chancery.' The actual
cost of supporting a girl depends
upon the girl and her resources,
She is endowed by nature with
adaptability, and, given two hun-
dred dollars or two thousand dol-
lars a year, to live and be reason-
ably happy. To be specific, Mr
Calvin Brioe'•s beautiful yellow
haired daughter could not keep
herself in bon -loons, driving gloves
and stationery with two hundred
a year. Col Fellows' daughter
spent two hundred dollars for
athletics alone; pretty Miss Fanny
Pryor hasaan allowance of sixty
dollars a month, every penny of
which she devoted to the pur-
chase of new apparatus for her
private gymnasium or special in-
struction in physical culture.
Rumor has it that the sweet anp
gentle Miss Helen Gould has two
thousand dollars for pocket -
money alone, out of which sweets
scent, notions, reading matter,
muni;;, stamps and alms are pro-
vided for. A noted beauty, who
lives on Madison avenue, pays
eleven hundred and twelve dol-
lars every year for massage treat-
ments, Tcrkish baths, shampoos
and hair trimming. These are
not extravagant notions, but ab-
solutely weeniste for bodily health
and personal comfort. Each of
Sir George M, Pullman's pretty
daughters has an allowance of
three thousand dollars, and their
accounts aro always overdrawn.
When Mrs Snell -McCrea -Green
was little Allie Snell of Chicago,
she had the rent of a whitestone
house in Ada street, opposite the
Snell mansion, to pay her candy
and millinery bills, and Miss
Doane daughter of J. W. Doane,
the wholesale grocery prince of
the Windy City, is allowed three
thousand dollars for her clothes,
and never has enough money in
June to pay her travelling ex-
penses to the family country
house in Connecticut. When
Amelie Rivers was paid for The
Quick or the Dead ? she 'got
something tolwear,' to use her
own words, and the India -silk
night-gowns, the crepe de chine
dresses, the cloth suits and opera
wraps, and the model Worth
had longed for all
toiletthat she
through her girlhood, were pur-
chased, together with the silk
stockings, pretty boots, and a few
pieces of inexpensive jewelery,
amounting in all to about six
thousand dollars. All tho facts
mentioned refer to sweet, simple
womanly girls under tho guid-
ance and judgment of sonsible,
forceful mothers.—N. Y. World.

to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and I can

After taking a few doses she seemed to
