WHEN I HAVE TIME.

When 1 have time, so many things I’ll <k To make life happier and more fair For those wheat* lives are crowded now with caie. I'll help to lift them from their low despair, When I have time. When I have time, the friend I love ao well Shall know no more these weacy, toiling days; rn lead her feet in pleasant paths always And cheer her heart with words of sweeh eat praise, When 1 have time. When yon have time.' The friend yoo hold so dear May be beyond the reach of all your sweet intent; May never know that you so kindly meanl To fill her life with sweet content, When you had time. New is the timel Ah, friend, no longer wait To scatter loving smiles aud words of cheer To those around whose lives are now sc dear. They may not meet you in the coming year— Now is the time. News.

HE HAD NERVE

He Proved the Possession of H to the PiujseiMtere’ Satisfaction, Bill Henderson was driver on the Ixw Angeles, Santa Ana and San Diego stage line for tw’enty-one years. Pot years he drove eight horses and often ten. The railroads have deprived the ■tage lines of their business, and Uncle Bill, like others of his calling, has gons tn to retirement. His tales of ad ven ture are seemingly without limit. One of the stories he tells is as follows: “One trip we had a new driver who was going up the road to take his place He was a handsome young fellow, who, from his unusual height, was called Lanky Jim. He was a skillful reins man, but was cool and cautious, and took no desperate chances, as some of the drivers did. On reaching the break-ing-in station we thought we would have a little fun at his expense, so 1 asked him to take the ribbons. He gathered up the Lines, shouted to turn them loose, aud away we went It was h wild ride for a mile or two, and then be tried to hold up, but this the pas •Bilgers objected to. “ ‘Turn ’em loose; this ain’t a hearse,’ •touted a big-nosed man. ** ‘Give them the silk,’ yelled a drummer. “ ‘Give Charley the ribbons,’ cried a ■tfner. “He stood it pretty well till I, too, lagan poking fun at him, when he cried: •“Gentlemen, I can drive as fast as W one,’ and with this he suddenly leaned forward, and before I could imMine what he Intended to do threw the Ims out of his hands to the ground and lagan whipping his horses. Run? If Em ever saw a team run those horses d that day. The coach rolled to and fro till I thought a dozen times it would Rp over, yet that fellow stood up in his JMt plying the silk and shouting: ‘Turn wn loose; this ain’t no hearse!’ ‘Don’t Pt on the brakes!’ ‘Give the ribbons Charley!’ and other expressions we |*d used. Fortunately for his neck, lad ours, there was not a stick or stoney mt a rock, clod or rut in the whole **fley, or we would have struck sometong and tipped over. About a mile from the other station there W®* a Ifrwteh of sand, and here the horses had |p atop their run. The moment they towed down into a trot a dozen of us fipnmg from the coach and caught up Mm lines, thus stopping the team. As *• handed him the lines he gathered tom up as coolly as you please and •aly Kdd: • *Gentl.emen, did we ride fast rough f Then* was no more attemjf fry his nerve. ’ RAINS OF GOLD. ■ We pray the most ftr whf* we de need. Sin always eaxrlee a knife under ft eloak. A fool never learns anything from y mistake. Mo man does his best who world <Uj for pay. A self-made man always spoils Mb somewhere. The cheerful giver is always the Mk VtK> gives much. Health is another word for temper ■Bee and exercise. What a multitude of ugly sins cal Mde behind one doubt 1 The devil won’t let a stingy max tore any mercy on himself. Tbat man is a thief who is hones* tofr because he is watched. The birds with the brightest feattb an do not sing the sweetest The sheep that goes astray neve* finds a green pasture for itself. We hate our own sins when we •• Wan full grown in somebody else. There is a policeman called Tim< ■nd he says to every lingering son O Bant “Move on.” We will find no Mrmanent resting place in thia |ad to-morrow may find us gone.

CURIOUS FACTS.

The longest, largest and Btrongto bone In the human system is the femun eg thigh bone. A dark, gloomy, blue sky is windy, |ut a bright, light-blue sky indicgM fine weather. Generally the vtoci clouds look the less wted (but ptrhapi more rain) may be expected, and th* harder, more “greasy,” rolled, tufted <4 ragged the stronger the coining wind will prove. . Thumb rings are very common in tbs East These are often made of precious -metal, ivory, jet and precious stone*, but generally they are of fine jade. The cavity is not cylindrical, but swells out at the base and middle. This enables the owner to wear it lower down, and also prevents it slipping. A foreign scientific journal fives the results of some recent experiments up> on the vocal cords which will prove interesting to singers. A baritone whs Wished to become a tenor succeeded W taking a course of inhalations, beginning with benzoin, going on to caseins and chloroform, and ending with curacoa; while the voice was deepened by using volatilized Norwegian tar. Watch the sky for what are called hnars* tails.” These appearing after V -ar weather show the track of the bind in the sky. A rosy sunset presets fair weather. A red sky in the ■iming foretells bad weather. A gray ■cy in the morning means fine weather. Ks the first streaks of light at dawn art seen above a bank of clouds look oul fr>r wind; if they are dose to or on the horizon the weather will be fair. In general, soft, delicate colon in the sky, with indefinite forms of clouds, mean fair weather; gaudy, unusual colors and hard-edged clouds mean rain, and probably wind. The warm climate of India often makes the ordinary precautions against the undue expansion of rails in a Milway track quite useless. For instance, it is stated that on a portion of the Rajputana Railway several miles of the permanent way were laid with Belgian rails which were all right in the morning, but exhibited a serious change dur Ing the heat of the day, the rails deflecting in and out fully three inches In X length of twenty feet; yet the expansion plates used had been increased from one-fourth to one half and even three-fourths of an inch, but to ao purpose. Perhaps the numerous derail ments recently reported may be attrib* ed to the san* tause.

AN ODD COLLECTION.

There is only one sudden deaW dnong women to eight among men. There are 12,000,000 silk hats mads annually in the United Kingdom worth 120,000,000. The wars of the last seventy year* have cost Russia |I*TTB«OM,QOO and the lives of 664,000 men. It is stated that nearly 1,000,0dd pounds of fur for hatters' purposes are produced in the United States. To be perfectly proportioned It if claimed that a man should weigh! twenty-eight pounds to every foot ot his height. The most densely settled State is Rhode Island, and the second Massachusetts. The former has 818.44 inhabitants to the square mile, and the tat:er 2T8.48. The tetters in the various alphabets d ene world vary from twelve to 209 n number. The Sandwich Islandorg alphabet has twelve* the Tartartato 202. The sun, if hollow, would hold 8t0,« JOO earth globes, and an eye capable as hourly viewing 10,000 square miles would require 66,000 years to see all Its surface. Prof. Boot easy says: Cats die at a* elevation of 18,000 feet, even though they are reputed to have “nine lives,* when on a level with the ocean. Dogs and men can climb the greatest known elevations. Astronomers calculate that the surface of the earth contains 31,625,696 square miles, of which 28,814,121 are water and 7,811,604 are land, the water thus covering about seven-tenths si the earth's surfaaa
