THE HEIGHT OF WAVES.

The Tallest Seas in the World Bun Off Capo Horn. Many experiments have been made to measure the height of 'waves in all conditions of weather. One authority goes as high as sixty-four feet and another as low as five feet, giving it as his reason that the peinetrating power of wind can not reach below that depth. Of this philosopher it may be presumed that he was a martyr to sea-sickness, and that he must have contented I himself with making his calculations in his study. On the other hand, a height of sixty-fottr feet is almost as absurd, though it is more in correspondence than five feet can possibly be with our conception of the altitude of the majestic surges which roll under the impulse of storms of wind along the surface of the great oceans. It is true that the earthquake wave has been known to rise to sixty feet; yet surges of this kind are happily scarce, since when they occur they are not only in the habit of razing whole towns upon the coast line where they break, but of carrying some of the vessels they may encounter at anchor in the neighborhood to the. distance of a day’s walk inland. Practical experience, however, will look with suspicion upon most of the scientific theories touching the altitude and velocity of waves. Prof. Airy’s table couples speed with dimensions, and, as a sample of his calculations, it may be shown that a wave 100,000 feet in breadth will travel at the rate of 533.90 feet per second in water that is 10,000 feet deep. This is possible, but it is difficult to accept such conclusions as exact. At all events, there is nothing more deceptive than the height of waves. 'The tallest seas in the world run off Cape Horn, where, whether the wind blows east or west, they have a holiday ground within a belt of 8 or 10 degrees that compasses the globe without the intervention of a break of land. Any man who has run, say, before a strong westerly gale round the Horn will know the magnitude of the seas which follow his ship. Viewed from the stern when the vessel sinks in the trough, the on-coming sea that is about to underrun the ship and lift her soaring to the flying heavens will seem to heave its rushing summit to the height of the mizzen-top; but when the summit is gained by the observer, and the Waves viewed from there, it will then be seen that these crests which from the deck looked a long way up, will now appear to be a long way down. It is a common shore-going phrase that the seas run “mountain high.” The idea implied is not very generally accepted by sailors, though the term may be sometimes used by them for convenience. The truth is, if waves were as tall as they are popularly supposed to be, no ship could by any possibility live in them. They are lofty to the fancy, because at sea they are usually surveyed from low freeboard. To a spectator on a steamer, with a six-foot height of side, an Atlantic or Pacific surge would necessarily appear as a mountain as compared to the aspect it would take from the deck of an old line-of-battle ship, with a thirty-foot “dip,” or from one of those lofty, glazed, and castellated structures wliich in former times took six months to jog soberly from the Thames to the Hooghly.— London Telegraph.

Sally Green’s Visit to a Saw Mill. Well, last Monday pap hitched up the old boss in the lite wagin, and I put on my yaller dress and green sunbunnit, and we went to Caledony to see the mil. We left the boss at Soldier’s tavern, and walked over to it. It ,is a big thing (the mill is). Well, the first man we seen was a boy. “Is • that a nigger,” says I. “No,” says pap, “that’s the blacksmit.” Then we went in on a bridge, and went in the mill. There was lots of wheels, all kinds, going like everything. There was a man with a biled shirt on, cleanin’ up as if he expected company. Then we went to a little mill on the cide. Down stares there was a young man layin’ slabs on a table (he smiled at me). Then another feller took them and pushed them ginst a saw that cut it to peeces. (Pap said they are bolts; I thought bolts was irun.) And another feller pulled them away (he was a nice fellow, too). Then a feller with a red an’ black shurt on put them on the table agin, and another big feller (he looked awful green) put them through two more saws, and another feller keched them (he looked kinder bashful, and I couldn’t see hfe face, but I knew him all the same; he used to try to cut round my sister Kate). After that pap says they are lath. Then another big, long feller took them and tied them with a rope and piled them up, and we seen a man poundin’ a saw with a hamer; he had on an old straw hat and specks. His specks was broke and tied up with a shu string. Pap asked him who broke th.m, and he ‘ said painter. “Goodness sakes alive!” says I. “d<KPainters come in the mill ?” “les,” say? he, “the bdys seen one the other nite, and Shird (whosoever that is) was most scart to deth.” Wile we was there, there was a short feller went by; he lookt like the jack of clubs (don’t think I play cards), and then the mill whisled, and the men went up to dinner, and we did not go up stares, but I will go again to see; but I will never forget that young man that pulls • them slabs, and if he will come up sum Sunday I will give him all the buttermilk he can drink.— Breakfast Table.

Perfect Harmony.

A fashionably dressed lady, accompanied by a distinguished-looking gentleman, called at the office of a prominent Austin lawyer, who asked: “What can I do for you?” “I want to obtain a divorce from my husband, here,” said the lady. “And I want to obtain a divorce from het, just as bad as she does from me,” said the husband. • . “Where such perfect harmony of sentiment exists between husband and wife, the law provides no adequate remedy. You had better go back and live together until you disagree with each other more than you do at present, and then perhaps I can do something for you.”— Texas Siftings. ... —Jb • Did a person, know the value of an enemy, he would purchase him with pure gold.— Abbe de Raunci.

A MOTHER’S DREAD.

The Wonderful Histrionic Development of a Famous Child Actress. [Chicago World.] The New York public waa Surprised a •fewyears ago at the arrest, at the instigation of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, of little Corinne, the chilli actress. The little girl, less than 8 years old, was taken from her parents and kept in confinement until released by order of the Court and Mayor of the city. Mrs. Jennie Kimball, the mother of Corinne, who has been known to the public for many years as vocalist and comedienne, has devoted the greatest care to the training and education of Corinne, and the result is a development of natural faculties really phenomenal. “Whendid you discover Corinne’s remarkable talent?” was asked of Mrs. KimbalL “I can hardly remember the time when her eyes would not sparkle at the sound of music; she began to sing before she could talk. Before she was four years old she created a sensation and received the prize of a gold chain and locket studed with diamonds, at the National baby show in Boston. Next she sang in a concert given by Brown’s Brigade Band, and in 1879 made her debut as Little Buttercup in the Juvenile Pinafore Company. Since then she has sung in opera and played various roles nearly everywhere.” Mrs. Kimball is a lady of fine presence, and, when playing at the Boston Museum, was herself known as “Little Jennie Kimball.” “What has become of the little lady?” asked the reporter. “She has given place to the person you see before you. Like so many others, I have grown somewhat fleshy. Indeed, I assumed such proportions that I began to fear for my health. Why, at times I would have the most suffocating sensation in my heart; then again my head would be attacked and I have frequently fallen to the floor in a dead fainting fit. I consulted several eminent physicians and they told me I must abandon the stage if I expected or hoped to live. This seemed terrible, for I am devoted to my profession and also to the developmentof Corinne.” “And yet you appear perfectly strong?” “And so I am. Why, I have reduced my weight over twenty pounds within three months, and I never felt better in my life. If any who are troubled as I was question this, let them try Warner’s safe cure, the remedy I used, and they will, I am sure, be speedily convinced of its truth. 1 believe it is the finest medicine in the world, and any number of my friends to whom I have recommended it have found it as beneficial as it has been to me.” “Is Corinne’s health good?” “Perfect. The child has so much life and vivacity she is overflowing with it, on and off the stage.” The only previous instance of such remarkable prococity which history chronicles, is that of the famous Peg Woffington, who first appeared in “The Beggar’s Opera,” when but a little older than Corinne.

Evolution and Religion.

We have a big meeting going on here, and I heard a man, say, “Well, I’m not going. I’ve got no confidence in these preachers. What I want to know first of all is, where did Cain get his wife. That’s what bothers me. ” And so he is going about loose, and every time anybody talks to him about religion he says: “ Where did Cain get his wife ?” But I think the new doctrine of evolution that has got into the church is a right fair compromise, for it maintains that while old Father Adam evoluted and came from a monkey old Mother Eve didn’t She was made all of a sudden and all at once, pure and beautiful and lovely, and had no monkey ancestors, and I reckon that is the reason why woman is to this day so much better than man. There is no gorilla blood in her—no taint of the brute or the beast to crop out like it does in a man. What a pity that she yoked on such a feller as Adam. What a splendid stock would have filled the world if Adam hadn’t evoluted, and had been created fresh like Eve. As it is, we have got a graded stock that is a sort of a cross between angels and monkeys, and it keeps up a powerful commotion. But the trouble about the whole business is that we can’t help it, and what troubles me more than all is that lam one of ’em. I always knew there was some devilment in me, some original sin that made me meaner than I want to be, and now I know just where it came from. That apple-eating business had nothing to do with it, but it is in the stock—the baboon cross—and ever and anon it crops out. All my good desires and noble aspirations, all my amiability and tenderness, comes from Eve, and my meaness from Adam. The old rascal! I wish she hadn’t have married him, and then maybe 1 would have been a better man. But still, notwithstanding and nevertheless, I would like to know, just as a matter of curiosity, what become of old Adam’s brothers and sisters, and all the rest of the old monkey stock that evoluted, for I reckon he didn’t evolute by himself. Maybe they didn’t marry angels, but just kept on in the monkey breed, and that accounts for the other races—the Hottentots pnd Indians and such like. There is a difference, a great difference, and it had a beginning somewhere. Science has a power of work to do in unraveling these questions, and I hope she will do it, but she hasn’t done it yet to my satisfaction, and I’m going to wait patiently.— Bill Arp.

English Beagles.

It is a very pretty sight to see a pack of beagles working in a cover. How they try every tuft of grass or rushes! Soon you notice that they are working mora eagerly, and soon begin to lash their tails, and suddenly out bursts “bunny” from his seat, sure to be saluted by a hasty shot from some one, not the least to its detriment, but a very narrow escape for the leading dog*. Away go the pack, making the woods ring with their tongues. Excited individuals look after them, often with their guns on full cock and their fingers on the trigger. What their ideas may be in this performance it is difficult to say, but I suppose it is the effect of that temporary insanity that seizes many people at the sight of a rabbit. As a rabbit invariably runs a ring and returns to its starting place, there is not the least use, except for the sake of exercise, in trying to follow it; and the first one put up is safe to run his ring, as the good shotq will not fire at him, that the youngsters may have a chance, and the indifferent shots are sure to miss the first through excitement. You hear plenty of shots while the dogs are running, as other rabbits, frightened by their noise and passage, bolt-from their seats and scuttle about everywhere. Besides these, a few old cock pheasants, who have strayed from the preserves, are sure to be found and shot You shortly hear a shot from the cover the rabbit was found in, followed by the “Whfcrhoop!” showing that the hunted one been killed. — London Society. 1 f

Ways of Telling a Man He Lies.

That a man who lies is a liar admits of no doubt; but the time was not far distant when it was considered advisable to give expression to the fact, when applied directly to the individual, with something of prudent euphemism in the choice of the particular form of words chosen for the occasion. Many delicate methods of getting around the difficulty have suggested themselves to ingenious and inventive minds. A man suspected of nntruthfulness has been characterized as one “who says more than his prayers;” whose word is “not exactly gospel truth;” whose “methods of stating a fact are not in logical harmony with the strictest demands of veracity;” whose “practical sympathy with the leading characteristics of Annanias’ views of truth is unquestioned,” and so on. But we have entered upon an era in which these polite methods describing mendacity are deemed weak, unsatisfactory, and superfluously polite. Hence the word “liar” has come into general use, and is bandied from one end of the land to the other, and with a frequency that promises to deprive it of the emphasis it has hitherto enjoyed by making it too common. — Boston Gazette. The Mason & Hamlin Company, long the moat famous manufacturers of reed organs in the world, have commenced the manufacture of Upright Pianos, having effected an Improvement which they regard as the most important introduced in many years. An ingenious arrangement fastens the strings directly to the iron plate of the instrument, giving greater clearness and purity of tone, with absence of all mere’noise. At the same time it renders the instrument more durable, loss liable to get out of order. The Mason & Hamlin Pianos are certainly exquisite instruments, and, coming from these thoroughly well-known makers, may be depended upon to be all they represent them.—Boston Journal. -

Musical Note.

At the Yer ger mansion on Austin avenue, at an evening sociable, a musical young lady played and sang a piece called “Sylvan Sounds,”in wliieh the singing and notes of the mocking bird and the lark were imitated. ’ “Did not that lady’s singing remind you of the singing of birds? You might have thought she was really a bird.” “Yes, but I never saw a bird sit down at a table after it had got through singing, and hide away three or four cups of tea, half a ham, and enough cake and ice cream to founder a mule. You never saw a lark or a mocking bird do that, did you?”— Texas Siftings.

The “cutting-room” in a shoe factory is, by reason of the intricate machinery it contains, the most dangerous room in the building. It is a rare thing to find such a room in a large factory that does not contain one or more employes minus a finger or thumb. Sometimes frightful accidents occur. The. racer, a huge machine modeled something after the guillotine of France, is used in cutting the sides of leather in strips. It contains a knife four feet long that would cut a man’s arm off as easily as scissors cut a thread.

CONSUMPTION.

Important to the Public as Well as the Medical Profession. Hall’s Journal of Health, referring to Consumption, makes the following important statement: “Consumption usually begins with a slight, dry cough in the morning, then on going to bed, getting more and more frequent, with more and more phlegm, increasing debility, thinness of flesh, shortness of breath, and quickness of pulse. In fatal cases its average course is about two years; hence the importance of arresting the disease at as early a stage as possible, and the sooner rational means are employed for this purpose the greater the chance of success. The disease is owing to an irritation commencing in the throat and extending to the lungs, so that their action is interfered with, and the blood does not receive sufficient oxygen to purify it. The most marked sign of lung disease is emaciation; and the most positive indication of returning health is increase in weight.” So speak Hall’s Journal of Health, and we may add that in desperate cases, and, in fact, in all cases of Consumption, or troubles of throat and lungs. Immediate relief may be obtained and a permanent cure effected by .the use of Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam for the Lungs, a medicine known for more than thirty-five years as an unfailing remedy for coughs, colds, bronchitis and all pulmonary and pectoral diseases. That the worst cases of Consumption have been cured by the use of Hall’s Balsam has been attested to by the thousands who have used it, or have been cognizant of its wonderful remedial efficacy.

How to Shorten Life.

The recipe is simple. You have only to take a violent cold and neglect It. Abernethy, the great English surgeon, asked a lady who told him she only had a cough; “ What would you have? The plague?” Beware of “only coughs.” The worst cases can, however, be cured by Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam for the Lungs. In whooping cough and croup it immediately allays irritation and is sure to prevent a fatal termination of the disease. Sold by
