A eraphie idea of the immense size of Siberia may be gleaned from the following comparison: All of the states, kingdoms, principalities, em pires, ete., of Furope (except Russia) and all of the United States, including Alaska, could be placed side by ride in Siberia and yet but little morethan cov.: that immense countrv. A letter from Caleutta says: ““The patives of India are becoming very de voted athletes. We know them as brilliant lawn tennis players and ex ceilent cricketers, and as fine fencers, while golf fever has for some time been spreading over all parts of India. They bhave plenty of room for the links; the only diffieulty is that here and there monkeys may join in the game, make a rush for the ball, and on finding it swallow . The most enthusiastic disciple of golf is his Higuness Aga Khar, the chief of the Khoga sect. He says that the natives of India were in former times great athletes and play ers o! ount-of-door games, and believes that tie physical regeneration of the race w.ll be aogomplished by follow ing teh example of the English in earne«tiy pursuing out-of-door exer ciscs. Golf, savs the Ameer, in a re centlv printed communication, is sure.y sedate enouzh for a bishop ora periormer on a charch orzan. It speaks, he sayvs, in its favor that all wio have become goliers are en thusiasts in pursuit of the game, show ing that there is & hidden fascination in 1* which youn cannot define and cer tainly do not eateh by merely looking at it being playved.” S:yvs the Spriogfield Republican: A movement of population from the eitics back into the conntry is notel iz Mingesota. The Minneapolis Tri bunc regards this recession in urban growth as an encouraging sign, and so it probably is. We shall be much sar prised if our own Massachnsetts cen>us «ces not exhibit a similar population movement in progress here, All over the country the drift to the cities has been too general and extensive for a decade and s haif past to meet the de mands of a pataral and healthfal ad- Justment between popuiations enzazed in agricaiture and popnlat ons en gaged 1 manufacturing, transporta tion avd professional and personal ser vices. The latter avenues of employ weont have been terribiy overcrowled and the coming ou of hard times has comnelled som«thing of a halt in this rewarkable march of the population to the cities. Fifty vears azo econo niists estimmated that abon one-half of tie working population of & ecountry wl.ch was self-suflicient in all lines of in- ustry won!d be nee le | on the farms to establish a bealty induas rial equi- Jivr.om. BDinece then tuere has been sucl cnprovement in machinery for farm work and its application in Awmerica to such advantage om broad areas of rich virgin soil as to material- Iy modify thisestimate for the United States in particalar. That 1s to say, tle same number oi men engaged on the soil can to-day produce a much larger guantity of food and raw ma terial for maunufacturing than they cotid filty vears azo. Bat since Amer ica 18 producing a vasily larzer quan tity of food and raw material than it uses—is doing agricultural work for a considerable body of manufacturing Joested outside the country—we should say that, notwithstanding the improvements in farm machinery, an estimate of fifty per cent. for the pop alation which should be at work on the farms in the United States under natural and healthful industrial con ditions was none too high. And yet the cenusus of 1890 shows, in s bulle tin lately published, that hardly forty per cent. of the working population - wwas af that {ime engnzed on the farms. Bicycles were substituted for horses in a recent bullfight in Spain. Tobacconists generally blame the bieyecle for the lessened demsand for cigars. - Epitor The great advantage in electric de position is that almost any metal may be deposited upon glass. A Minnesota girl of fifteen can dis tinguish no color, everything being white to her, and she 1s compelled to wear dark glasses to protect her eyes from the glare. The firemen of San Francisco are experimenting with a new respirator, or air filter, by means of whica they are enabled to work forty-five minutes in dense smoke without suffocation. Experiments have shown that mild currents of electricity may have a beneficial effeet on the growth of plants, but, of course, a heavy charge will kill a plant just as lightning will kill a tree. Electricians say that a trolley car is by all odds the safest place to be found in a thunder storm. The wire and trolley pole serve as a perfect protec tion, and a car has never yet been known to be injured by lightning. Although a rubber horseshoe has been invented for use on icy pave ments, nothing satisfactory seems to have been found for hcrses compelled to travel upon wet asphalt. 1t 1s no ticeable that horses accustomed to as phalt learn the trick of stepping cate fuily, as men learn to walk with stil fened ankles on ice. “I don’t see,” said the man who was leaning against the drug store coun ter, ““why a doctor can’t write his pre seriptions in [English, instead of Latin.” The druggist said: “‘You think, T suppose, that the doctor writes his prescription in Latin so it ean’t be read so easily —so the layman can’t steal his trade and learn what he is giving him. But that’s all wrong. In the first place, Latin is & more exact and concise language than English, ind, being a dead langunage, does not hange, as all living langnages do. “Then, again, since a very large »art of all the drugs in use are botan cal, they have in the pharmacopeia ‘he same names that they bave in bot iny—the scientific names. Two-thirds of such drugs haven’'t any Englisb names, and so couldn’t be written in English. “‘But suppose a doctor did write a preseripiion in English for an unedn cated patient. The patient reads it, thinks he remembers it and so tries to ret it filled from memory the second time. Suppose, for instance, it called for iodide of potassium and he got it confused with cyanide of potassium. He could safely take ten grains of the first, but one grain of the second would kill him as dead as a mackerel. That’s an exaggerated case, but it will serve for an illustration. Don’t you see how the Latin is a protection and a safeguard to the patient? DPrescrip tions in Latin he can’t read, and con sequently does not try to rememter. ‘““Now for a final reason. Latin is a language that is used by scientific men the world over, and no other lan guage is. You can get a Latin pre sceription filled in any country on the face of the earth where there isa drue store. We had a prescription come in here the other day which we had put up originally, and which had since been stamped by druggists in Lon don, Paris, Berlin, Constautinople, Cairo and Calcutta. What good would an English prescription be in St Petersburg?” ““Got any good tooth powder?” asked the man leaning against the courter.—New York Herald. % The autograph furniture fad is not exactly new, but is decidedly in creasing,” said a West End furniture dealer to a writer in Answers, who produced for the inspection of the writer a beautifnl drawing-room ta ble, on the cream-white top of which appeared hundreds of autographs of celebrities, these being largely literary and dramatic. ““All these signatures are genuine ones, written on a peculiar kind of Brazilian whitewood withspecialinks, but in many ecases the surface to be writicen upon is simply good cardboard or papier mache, and in all eases the lfltuy_‘fl‘)h-(‘O\‘!‘!’e«l parts are sent to us to be varmished over, and we can get such a suriace that the autographs are fully protected without glass, thongh these tables sre sometimes covered with plate glass, ““The idea is not American, but Frenchb, and I believe that the best collection of autograph furniture known is that of Mrs. Hennessy, who is connected with the great brandy listilling firm, and lives in a magnifi *ent house near Marseilles. She has sll manner of articles covered with beautiful silk. Autographs are writ ten on this with pencils, and the nee dlework in various colors worked upon the lines. Omne of the features of her eollection is a splendid whitewood mantelpiece, which is one mass of au tographs, the mirror above it being scratched all over with diamond-cut signatures. “The whitewood and papier mache warfaces are the most in demand, and we have two tables of this kind in hand for varnishing now. One of these con sists of quotations from plays written in different hards, and is the poetry of Mrs. Patrick Campbell; the other is covered with small sketches by dif ferent artists, and belongs to Mrs. H. M. Stanley. Quite a number of socie ty hostesses during toe past season got all their distinguished guests to sign on these tablets, and the result is most iuteresting."” POPULAR SCIENCE.

Fhe Army Went Wild When Napoleon Came Back Again. Philip met the truth at Lyons. The air was full of rumors that speedily De *ame facts. With less than a thousand of his grenadiers—his “brave growl ars,” as he sometimes called them— the Emperor had landed in France. The army had gone over to him, wild with joy. The Empire would be pro claimed once more. France would be free of tlie Bourbons. Philip found Lyons in a ferment. Na poleon was almost at its gates. The Bourbon prince who commanded the troops in that important city ordered his soldiers to the walls to repel or capture “the bandit frem Elba.” But what was a Bourbon prince Dbefore “our Emperor?” The tidings of the imperial adven turer came thick and fast. Napoleon had landed near Cannes; he had marched over the mountains to Dijon; he had first fronted the white stand ard with his tricolor at Laffrey; with bared breast he had faced the soldiers of the King in the Vale of Beaumont, bidding them welcome or kill him; and behold! the soldiers of the King had fallen on their knees before him, eried “Long live the Emperor!” and hailed him as their “father.” He had kissed the restored eugles at Vizille; he had entered Grenoble, through the gates burst open by the peasants without and the revolted soldiers within; es corted by mountaineers and farmers singing the Marseilles Hymn, he ad vanced from Grenoble to Lyons with Lis little “army of deliverance” already grown from one thousand to six thou sand soldiers waving the tricolored cockade, Off hurries the Bourbon prinee In terror of his life; down go the barricades, wrecked by the very sol dlers who had piled them up; “Long live the Emperor!” shout garrison and citizens; and to the accompaniment of twenty thousand welcoming voices Na poleon erters Lyons.—St. Nicholas. The Child’'s Mind. Child ilnstruction should in the first instance proceed upon the principle that the young mind is an Incaleulable possibility, and that schooling should be of a character to earry that possi bility just as far as may be toward Its reallzation, writes the Rev. Charles 1. Parkhurst, D. D., in the Ladies’ Home Journal. The ¢hild’s mind is as thick- Iy studded with interrogation points as the sky Is with stars. The primary genius of a child is the genius for ask ing questions. There is a natural atlin ity between the mind and the truth. Inquisitiveness is as natural to Intelli gence as hunger is to the stomach. One of the most common effects of curren. schooling is to destroy that afinity. In tellectual stuffing in the nursery or in the schoolroom is worse and more wick ed than gluttony in the dining-room. Children who commence going to school when they are 6 and continue at it until they are 16 hate knowledge a good deal worse than they do sin, and llf they had the courage of their Impuls es would assassinate their instructors and practice nihilism on thelr school rooms and text-books. The distinct symptoms of nihilism are discernible in every schoolroom that has been used for educational purposes more than six months. This Intellectunal demoraliza tion of the schoolroom will pursue its present course till teachers are select ed who have enough of the genius of Froebel to understand that the mental constitution of the child is itself de scriptive of the course to be followed in its development, and that the proper office of school cammissioners and school committees is to help the teach er carry out the intentions of nature rather than to compel him to embar rass and controvert those intentions. A saloon sandwich in Bridgeport, Conu., instantly killed a man the other day. This seems queer; that identical sandwich had done service since 1869 and never killed any oue before.

They are the MOST SIMPLE, contain fewer parts and have less gearing. They can be understood and kept in order by the common farm-hand. All their parts are under the eye of the operator, and so simple that should anvthing go wrong, he wiill know just what to do. The essential parts can be set up and tightened as wear occurs, and renewed at trifling cost. They are built on sound mechanical principles. They are positively the lightest draft. They are the strongest and most durable. They are the best for rough, uneven ground, consequently the best for smooth mowing. They are the easiest a 1 safest to ride upon. They are the easiest to handle, both for team and driver. They wiil iest longer and do more work and better work. They raise the bar easitr &1d lift nigher to pass obstructions. Thev are more in use than any other kind, shewinxg rheir appreciation by the farmer. They require fewer repairs. Duplicate rrtc can be quic 'y and surely procured at convenient points.
