SIMPLE REASONS.

People hiccough because of a muscular contraction of the diaphragm. It Is supposed to be sympathetic and to arise from an effort of the diaphragm to assist the stomach to get rid of some indigested or disagreeable matter. Cropping a caps ear keeps her at home, because In prowling at night among bushes and grass drops of water fall in her ears, and she prefers to stay at home rather than spend the time scratching her head to get the water out Clouds that move in a direction opposite to that of the surface current Indicate a change es weather, because they prove the existence of two air currents, one warm and the other cold, and the mingling of these often causes rain. The strongest muscle is in the calf of the leg, because locomotion Is one of the most necessary functions. The great muscle es the calf has been found, by actual experiment, to be capable of sustaining seven times the weight of the body. Many persons lay a poker across the top of a grate to make the fire bum, because of a popular superstition, once credited, that a stubborn fire was due to the devil. Two pokers were used, and were laid across the fire In the form of a cross. The human system can endure a heat of 212 degrees, the boiling point of water, because the skin is a bad conductor and because the perspiration cools the body. Men have withstood without Injury a heat of 800 degrees for several minutes. The oil glands of the skin are most numerous In races living under the tropics, because the oil is nature’s protection against the heat of the sun. In hot countries its action is often assisted by the application of vegetable or animal oils. Sounds can be heard over water to much greater distances than on land because the smooth surface of the water offers less Impediment to the passage of the air vibrations. On calm booming of artillery at sea has been heard for 250 miles.

CURIOUS FACTS

In Switzerland one hundred of every one thousand stone cutters die of consumption; in England the rate is 840 deaths per one thousand. The lowest sick rate In the English navy service In 1893 was on the southeast coast of America station, and the highest on the China station. The tensile strength of iron at 400 degrees below zero Is just twice what it is at 60 degrees above. It will take a strain of sixty Instead of thirty tons to the square inch, and equally curious results have come out as to the elongation of metals under these conditions. It is believed that a herd of buffalo Is roaming the Red Desert northwest of Rawlins, Wyo. For the protection of these animals a bill has been introduced in the State Legislature punishing the killing of a buffalo by from three to ten years’ imprisonment. The crossing of a buffalo with black Galway cattle has been successfully tested at Good Night, Tex., Gordon City, Kan., and Sioux City, la., and has proven so highly profitable that the raisers of this novel species are going into the business on an extensive scale. It is said that the late Hans von Bulow left directions that a post mortem examination of his brain should be made to ascertain the cause of the excruciating headache from which he was a lifelong sufferer. The autopsy revealed the fact that the end of the nerves! had become imbedded in a scar of an injury to the brain, which he had received in childhood. It appears that in Japan one factor entering into the problem of the choice of a daughter-in-law is her skill In raising silkworms. The thread spun by the silkworm Is said to be regular and even in proportion as the worm has been regularly and carefully fed. The prospective mother-in-law carefully and minutely examines the evenness of the silk thread in the material of the garments worn by the young lady before giving her assent to the betrothal.

APHORISMS.

He only half dies who leaves an Image of himself in his sons.—Goldoni. Our actions are our own; their consequences belong to heaven.—Francis. He that has never known 111-fortune has never known himself or his virtue. —Mallet The resolution of a moment with some men has been the turning point of infinite issues to the world.—J. C. Geikie. The first virtue is to restrain the tongue. He approaches nearest to the gods who knows how to be silent even though he Is in the right—Cato. It is an old proverb that he who aims at the sun, to be sure will not reach it but hi® arrow will fly higher than if he aimed at an object cm a level with himself.—Hawes. Whatever our place allotted to us by Providence, that for us is the post of honor and duty. God estimates us not by the position we are in, but by the way in which we fill it.—Tryon Edwards. Life is made up not of great sacrifices or duties, but of little things, In which smiles and kindness and small obligations given habitually are what win and preserve the heart and secure comfort—Sir H. Davy. A good thought is a great boon, for which God is to be first thanked, then he whole the first to utter it and then, in a lesser, but still in a considerable degree, the man who ]» the flxst to quote HJofccSoyfie.

THE WORK OF SIX YEARS.

A Curious Clock Produced by u Got* nan Artist, A eurious clock has been made by a clockmaker at Warsaw., Germany, named Goldfadon, who has worked at It six years, says an exchange. The clock represents railway station, with waiting rooms for travelers telegraph anil > offices, a very pretty, wellllgl orm, and a flower garden, of which Is a sparkling ar water. Post the rallm the Hues. There are xes, signal lights, and act, everything that be«ty station to the smallof the central tower Is il l- «i shows the time of the place; uni clocks In the side cupolas show the time at New York and Pekin, and on the two outermost towers are a calendar and a barometer. Every quarter of an hour the station begins to show signs of life. First of all the telegraph official begins to work. He dispatches a telegram stating that the line Is clear. The doors open and on the platform appear the station master and his assistant; the clerk Is seen at the window of the ticket office and the pointsmen come out of their boxes and close the barriers. A long line of people forms at the ticket office to buy rickets; porters carry luggage; the bell Is rung and then out of the tunnel comes a train rushing Into the station and after the engine has given a shrill whistle, stopa A workman goes from carriage to carriage and tests the axles with a hammer. Another pumps water Into the boiler of the engine. After the third signal with the bell the engine whistles and the train disappears in the opposite tunnel; the station master and his assistant leave the platform and the doors of tho waitingroom close behind them; the pointsmen return Into their boxes and perfect stillness prevails till In a quarter of an hour, the whole is repeated.

The Bad Breath of Royalty.

European royalty is cursed with execrable teeth, the result of consanguineous marriages throughout countless generations, and even the princes of the reigning bouse of Sweden, who are of plebeian origin, the grandfather of the present King having been born as a peasant at Pau, on the French slope of the Pyrennes, suffer from bad teeth, necessitating much science and skill In treatment It is only natural, therefore, that they should have frequent resource to dentists, and, Inasmuch as dentil surgery has attained a greater degree of science and proflclenoy in the United States than in Europe, It is American doctors as a rule who have been intrusted with the welfare of royalty’s Jaws. Reared among republican surroundings and imbibed with that essentially American conviction that all men are made of the same clay, no matter whether king or peasant, their Independence of manner always presented an agreeable and refreshing contrast to the obsequiousness and flattery of native courtiers, and iti Is to this in particular that must be attributed the remarkable Influence acquired at several of the European courts by these American dentists. They were trusted not only with royal teeth, but also with many a royal secret, and they, In several cases, have acquired an Immense amount of influence.—Chicago Record.

Common Errors in Speech.

The verb to get is one of our much misused words; It means to acquire, win, obtain; and, primarily, It signifies the putting forth of effort to attain something. Consequently it is not only superfluous, but incorrect, to speak of a man as “getting drowned” or “getting sick;” and you may, unfortunately, “have a cold,” but it Is Impossible that you “have got a cold.” At this moment no exceptions occur to the writer to the rule that got should never be used in connection with have, which alone sufficiently expresses possession. Say “I have the picture,” not “I have got the picture;” “The dog has a broken leg.” not “The dog has got a broken leg.” The Irregular verbs lay and lie are frequently confounded. Lay Is an active or transitive verb, and lie is passive or intransitive. We lay things down or mve laid them down; but we and things lie at rest. You He down, have lain down, will He down, or are lying down; she lay down yesterday and i» going to He down this afternoon. A frequent error Is to confound the past tenses of these verbs. One should say, “Mary laid the book on the table, and lay down herself;’’ but the book lies on the table. —Demoreat Magazine.
