J*ropo«e<l Ferris Wheel for London. It is reported that a “Fern', wheel" larger than that at the World’s Fair wid be e ected in London this year. The accounts are rather hazy, but it is said that the wheel will te 300 feet in diameter, the whole structure standing 3£o feet high. The number t f carriages is to te forty. The axle will be a steel tube oil feet' long and 7 feet in diam3ter. The standards which support it will be in the form of quadrilateral towers, with two of the legs inclined toward the wheel, the 6tyle being substantially similar to that employed by Mr. Ferris. These towers wil. have four floor-, on which will be restaufants and other rooms for the public. Hydraulic elevators are planned to provide access to these floors. It is intended to operate the wheel by two electric motors of silty horse power each, turning a drum driving large wire ropes, which will run in grooves on the periphery of the big wheel. —Western Electrician.

“If I Were Yon.” If I were yon and had a friend Who called a pleasant hour to spend. I’d be polite enough to say. “Ned, you may choose what games we’ll play. * That’s what I’d do If I were you. If I were you and went to school, I’d never break the smallest rule. And It should be my teacher’s joy To say she had no better boy. And ’twonld be true If I were you. If I were you, I’d always tell The truth, no matter what befell. For two things only I despise— A coward heart and telling lies— And you would, too, If I were you. If I were you, I’d try my best To do the things I here suggest Though since I am no one but me I cannot very well, you see. Know what I’d do If I were you. —New York Independent Five Little Ch ckens. Said the first little chicken. With a queer little squirm, “Oh, I wish I could find A fat little worm. Said the next little chicken. With an odd little shrug, “Oh, I wish I could find A fat little bug!” Said the third little chicken. With a sharp little squeal, “Oh, I wish I could find Some nice yellow meal!” Said the fourth little chicken, With a small sigh of grief, “Oh, I wish I could find A little green leaf!” Said the fifth little chicken, With a faint little moan, “Oh, I wish I could find A wee gravel stone!” “Now, see here,” said the mother, From the green garden patch, “If you want any breakfast. You just come and scratch.”

Something Needed, Sure. “Mamma, I want some water In a bowl. I am going to christen my doll.” “No, little dear; that would be trifling with a sacred subject. “Then give me some wax to waxinate her with. She’s old enough now to have something done to her.” The Man in the Mo >n. “There’s the home of the man in Man in the Moon,” said her guide. As they came near, she saw in front of a large hole in the side of the mountain, shaped like a door, an enormous man. Elfle thought he must be at least fifty feet high. He was dressed in a long, brown coat, which reached to his knees; on his legs were long blue stockings, and purple trunks; his shoes were ornamented with buckles, his cap was blue and cut to a point in front, while a long amber-colored feather which floated up from it showed that he was a little bit vain of his personal appearance. His head was very, very large, forming at least onethird of his whole height. The face was round and full and very jollylooking, a slight droop to the left eyelid giving his eyes snch a quaint, shy look that nobody who looked at him could possibly help laughing. He was sitting down on a great head of cheese, having bis dinner; and (to show you what a very extraordinary man he was) he was eating the front of his own house!

“Hullo!” he shouted, when he saw our little traveler, “hullo! What brings you here? It isn’t often that I have pleasure of speaking to any Earth-children. Come here and let me shake hands with you.” He stooped down and took Elfle’s hand in his mighty flst and shook it warmly. “Sit down, sit down, little one; here is a nice seat. Of course you wish to ask questions. I never knew an Earth-child who did not. Go right on, and I will tell you all you wish to know. ”

Elfle settled herself comfortably on the soft cheese seat, ready to enjoy herself. “In the first place,” she said, “I’d like to know about some of the things you have seen from here, and why do you look so jolly, please? I should have thought that you would feel more like crying all the time, for you have to work so hard making the new moons. Then I have read and heard so much of the misery that there is in the world, and which you must see every night. I can’t understand it how you manage to look so happy about it.” While Elfle spoke, the Man in the Moon looked very serious, and as she finished he buried his face in his hands. When he uncovered it the smiling, happy look had gone. “My little girl,” he said, “you have asked me questions which would take me a lifetime to answer. This, though, 1 can say—that I have seen a great deal of trouble, misery, and wretchedness down upon the earth, but I have seen also a great number jof things to rejoice at, and to make be glad. Long, long ago, I found (that to sit down and make myself miserable about things that I could not help, did me no possible good; and that one who does so only cripples his powers for usefulness. By being bright and cheerful I have made many people happy, and kept my own heart young. STou—andothers —might remember this. “As for my working so hard making me cry, I can tell you that the very best help toward making a contented mind is to work—work—work. Not, certainly, to toil on forever with no rests for play or pleasure, but to do something every day. I have always found that when I sit down to rest with the knowledge that I have accomplished something. I am always the happier for it and enjoy myself much better. “And as for the things I have seen, I could, as you may well believe, tell you more stories about the things that have happened under my light, than you could get into the biggest story-hook that was ever written.”— 6L, Nicholas.

Give the Boys a Trade.

Go where you will, you will find youths entering manhood without any equipment for the struggle be-

fore them. Tens of thousands of them hope to become merchants, when they have no aptitude whatever for commercial affairs, and are doomed to lives of bitter toil and grinding poverty. This ought not to be. Everybody in America is justly entitled to a trade, aDd be ought to have the chance to master one. Many sons of poor parents and many orphan boys are compelled to forego the Inestimable benefits of apprenticeship, and these ought to be assisted by wise philanthropy; but very many more fall to improve the great opportunity of becoming skilled workers, and so drift into the laboring army, to become helpless victims of poverty all their lives Boys in town or country, learn a trade. It will be your surest and best friend through life. Parents, in whatever else you come short, don’t fail to see to this matter. You will be insuring the happiness and comfort of your sons, the welfare of those who come after them, and discharging a solemn duty you owe to society and the country.—Farm and Fireside.

AN IDEAL GREAT MAN’S WIFE.

Mrs. Gladstone's Tact in Watching Her Husband’s Many Moods. The watchful care which Mrs. William Ewart Gladstone continually exercises over the health and comfort of her distinguished husband is the subject of frequent comment among her intimates. Possessed of a forceful intellect and strong womanly sympathies, she uses these characteristics in such a way as to make the ex-premier think her the cleverist

MRS. GLADSTONE.

woman in the world. Out of all the members of her household she alone knows just how to manage her venerable husband, who in recent years has occasionally manifested a disposition to indulge in what would be regarded as tantrums in less distinguished men. On one occasion recently a leading London journalist, while dining with the Gladstones, got into a heated argument with the sage of Hawarden over some question of public policy. While the discussion was at its stormiest a servant quietly slipped a card into the hand of the daring newspaper man. On It were the words written in Mrs. Gladstone’s large, angular hand: “We never contradict Mr. Gladstone.” The visitor then for the first time noticed that the grand old man wore a flushed and excited look. He at once took the hint, and after feebly contesting the point for a few moments longer confessed himself worsted and peace was restored.

laid hands on Africa, and in the interim she has acquired an area of considerably over 1,000,000 square miles. The kingdom of Uganda is perhaps the most advanced of all the native African States. The country is very fertile and lies to the west and north of Lake Victoria Nyanza. The population Is estimated at nearly 5,000,000. As gunsmiths, carpenters, boat builders and blacksmiths the people—the Wa-Ganda—excel, and they have a passionate desire for all useful knowledge. They have quick, sharp minds, delight in argument, are easily excited and are very brave. Their king is Mwanga, who succeeded McTesa, whom Stanley visited during his African explorations.

RAZOR-STROPPING DEVICE.

The Blade Is Always in the Right Position. A cutler has recently brought out a razor-stropping device to be used in connection with safety razors, as here shown. It consists of a nickled frame, with a round wooden part fastened rigidly to the center of two side arms pivoted at tbje top. These move back and forth, reversing the blade every time the the machine is changed. At the end of the arms is a spring metal leceiver for the blade of a safety razor. A slight, pressure on the strop when the

machine is in motion causes the blade to tarn always in an opposite direction-to which the apparatus is going, making it impossible to cut the strop and at the same time inquiring no skill to sharpen the razor.

MEN WHO WEAR CORSETS.

The Inquirer Will Not Find Very M.nj Except Among the Military. At Intervals the subject of corsets for men comes up for discussion in the daily papers, and mora or less

profound homilies are written upon the vanity of men. As a matter of fact, however, corsets are practically unknown among Americans, as they are among men of every other country except those in which, the military forces

are of the fore most importance. Men are born with a tendency to weight just as they are with a tendency to grow tall or to remain

short, and even the ) most profound efforts on the partiof fat men do not result in reducing them to the proportions demanded by military custom. Hence the stays which are a portion )of the outfit of many officers in the B'rench, German, and Austrian armies. A French-

Some of the heavy military dandies in London wear stays, but as a rule the athletic work of the average English officer involves such severe training and constant\exercise that he does not need an/artificial compression for his waist.

OLD LOADSTONE MAGNET.

Its Exceeding Age Testifies to Its Excellent Workmanship. The picture of the old-time loadstone magnet shown below Is from the Electrical Engineer. It is composed of a piece of loadstone with soft iron pole pieces fitted to it. One of the bands which holds the parts together is silver. On this band is engraved: “Meinert (one side not Bhown) AParis, 1753,” on the pole pieces the letters N and 8 indicated the polarity. This polarity is, according to the French custom, marked S on the north-seeking pole. The

OLD-TIME MAGNET.

magnet weighs two pounds three and a half ounces and will sustain more than Its weight. The magnet was brought to America about 1775 by Dr. John Francis Vacher, a EYench physician who was educated at the college of Montpelier. He joined one of the American regiments as surgeon, and served for sometime. He was a member of the Cincinnati, and Is buried in St. Paul’s churchyard, in New York. It has been the plaything for his and his descendants’ children for over 100 years, and its survival shows its good construction. It is now in the possession of the family of the late Hon. Robert Gilchrist.

SHEPHERDS ON STILTS.

How the Frenchmen In the Sandy “Landes’ Tend Their Flocks. On the barren, sandy “Landes” in the south of France the sheep and pigs do not live in clover, nor does the shepherd fare luxuriously. The people are full of queer notions. They assert that potatoes cause apoplexy, that milk Is unhealthy, that wheat bread spoils the stomach, and that onions, garlic and rye bread a week old In their country is the best and most healthy diet. The shepherds walk on stilts, eat on stilts, and if they do not sleep on stilts they rest on stilts for hours together by means of a stilt rest. This is a long, stilt-like Btick, having a crescentric curve at the top to fit the back. Thus with the stilts stretched out to right and left, and this stick in the rear, they are well braced. The stilt-walkers manage to go through the deep and shifting sands at the rate of six and

seven miles an hour. The dress ol the shepherd is rough and quaint. He wears a sheepskin with the wool on, in the form of a loose hooded coat.

Residential Hotel Life.

Fifty years ago residential hotel life was comparatively unknown, says the Hotel Gazette. Servants abounded, rents were reasonable, political bosses gave kindly treatment to taxpayers, and housekeeping was ala mode. Hotel life half a century ago belonged to the tourist, the visitant and the bachelor who loved to take “mine ease in mine own inn.” Electric hells in hotels were as unknown as electric lights. He who has slept in New York’s luxurious hotel temples of to-day, who has patronized hostelries in the British. French and German capitals, and even battled with Egyptian fleas In the celebrated hotel at Cairo, and who has partaken of hotel hospitality in many other American cities, can sympathise heartily with the usually apathetic Briton who recently declared that even the second-rate hotels of New York surpass In comfort and menage any others In the world. She— “l wonder if he has a ghost of a show now.” He—“ Who?” She ■—“P. T. Barnum.”— Life.

CORRESPONDING.

Below la ■ Good Plan for Chums to Follow. A writer in Harper’s Young People tells of an ingenious scheme devLed by a class of young ladies at school together a few years ago. One of them, an English girl, thus explains it: “There were nine of us in the class, and we were all promising to write lo each other continually, but in our hearts we knew that such a correspondence c uld never be kept up. t inally one of the girls suggested a circulating letter, and the i ;ea pleased us all. “At the expiration of one n-onth from the time we parted, the first girl wrote a letter telling what she had been doing and everything about hers If which would be likely to interest the others. This letter was sent to the second girl, who, after reading it, wrote her own letter, and rent ihe two to the third. "The third, fourth, fifth, and all the others in turn added their letters, unthe ninth on the li t tent them all '.to the first. Then the circuit was comploto, and we hud the circulating letters fairly under way. “Now, of course, the envelope always contains nine letters, aud each girl, whan it comes to her, takes out her own letter, writes a new one telling what she has been doing in the meantime, and starts it on it 4 travels again. “ Vou can have no idea - how interesting it is to receive the letters, and how anxiously we will await their arrival when our turn comes. We have kept it up for nearly fcur years, and each time the letters come rt und the pleasure of reading what all tne girls have to say seems to inciease. ”

Why Chinamen Change Signs.

A Washington street Chinaman changed his sign the other day, name and all. Every one has the sign fever nowadays, und he thought he would bo in line with the Melii anmon. One of his customers, after the sign had boon changed, stopped in to see if a new Chinaman had taken possession of the place He found the same Utundrymati as hs;d been there for a good many months. “What did you charge the name on your sign for.-” was asked of him. “Oh, that nothin’. Only sign unine. That's all.” “Why don’t you put your own name on the sign?” “Oh, see if I Felle plaeeo can t sello sign, tee? Any namo good sign. That’s all. ” He then explained that it was a comm< n practice among Chinamen to change their frequently, and that by so doing they lelie\o that it encouraged trade and thus reimbursed them for the expenditure in red paint and unpronounceable characters.—Buffalo Kxpres 3 .

Flnkhum's Vegetable Compound. Some Idea of the extent of such advertising can bo formed when one considers the fact, that a five-Inch electrotype weighs but a few ounces, aud that eight tons consists of 250,000 ounces, or an amount sufficient to furnish all the leading publications of America with more than live eloctrotypei each.

Well-Paid Work.

When pooplo speak of authorship as an underpaid profession they reckon without their Mrs. Humphrey Ward. For the American and English markets alone she was paid for “David Grieve" 8K),000. Say that she gets B‘■o,ooo more for “Marcella," and that she got 840,000 for “Robert Elsmere." That is 8200,000 for three books, written during a period of about six years. Two hundred thousand dollars in six year's is not bad pay, when ono consider that it is all profit. The shccess of an author deponds upon the demand for his work. The book market is like any other, and the author f r whore books the public clamor has no cause for complaint.—New York Critic.
