THE POSTMAN ON WALKING.

Kntes for Getting Along In Slippery Weather Straddle and Beware of Your HeeU. 'From the New York Sun, | -All but doctors and meh who sell liniment will be glad to read the advice that follows about the proper way to walk in slippery times. The advice came from a very old postman, jogging homo from his daily rounds. “You’ve postmen climbing U P stoops, diving into basements and scoot-. ing across streets in the slipperiest kind ofl weather,” the old man said, “but I’m sure you never saw a postman fall down, unless he was very young and inexperienced. Walking, you see, is the most important part of a postman’s duty next to ringing door bells so as to bring the girl on the first ring. I can tell you in two minutes how to walk; and if you remember what I say you will never fall any more. “In the first place you must go along with your feet pretty far apart That is one important thing. Most people walk with their feet close together—• very close. That’s all right in summer, but in winter it’s all wrong. Your foot is likely to land on a round piece of ice or snow and slip "sidewise toward the other foot which is going along all right—ls your f eet are close together, nine times out of ten the one that slips will knock the other one from under you, and down you go. If it doesn’t it will get so thoroughly mixed up with it that your ankles will curl all together, just like grapevines, and before you can get them straightened out, down you go anyhow. If your feet are well apart, as they should be, you have time to think, reflect and get ready before the crash comes, and perhaps save a bone. Another impdrtint 'thing is to land well on the ball of the foot when you walk. If you can’t get the ball of your foot down first, bring it down just as soon as you do the heel, anyhow. Come down flatfooted. That isn’t fancy heel-and-toe walking, but it’s business, and it’s safer. And' this is why. You may slip and fall a million times, and every time, if you notice anything, you will notice that it was your heel that slipped and not the ball of your foot. It is always the heel that slips. I don’t know why, unless it is that the sole of the shoe, being broader, gets a firmer hold, “These two rules, if you follow them out ca efully, will save you the price of a good many bottles of arnica.’ There are some others, but they are; not so important. One is always to keep the body limber as you go along; keep the legs limber at the knees too/ It is always a stiff, dignified sort of a man that goes down, because he bolds himself so that he is not prepared to lean quickly one way or the other and save himself. I don’t want to see the nation get round-shouldered, but to hold the shoulders too far back in slippery weather is not very good either; it fixes one all ready to fall. The best way to hold one’sself is in imitation of thosejlndians that you see pictures of going along at a sort of jog trot with their bodies stooping a little forward. Keep your eves on the ground before you, as tiioqgh you was following a trail,- and look for very slippery spots, and, observe the other rules; and if you are a lady you can aispensT Wttir-the humiliation of holding your muff behind your back, trying to make folks believe you prefere to carry it that way. ”

The Color of the Eye.

Some curious researches have recently been undertaken by Swiss and Swedish;physicians on the color of the eyes, but without afiy apparent practical purpose. For convenience all eyes were divided into blue or brown, the various shades of gray eyes being classified according to the prominence of blue or brown in ther coloj:. Some of the conclusions drawn from a great many observations are these: That women with brown eyes have better prospects for marriage than those with blue; that the average number of children is greater with parents whose eyes are dissimilar. In children both of throe per cent, inherit blue eyes; but imchildren both of whose parents have -brown eyes only eighty per cent, have brown eyes. The above results were reached in Switzerland. In Sweden the discoveries were not quite the same. The women with brown eyes are more numerous than the men with brown eyes 1 ; "but brown eyes are appair ently increasing there, as in Switzerland.

Curran’s Ready Wit.

When Lord Byron published his sentimental “Farewell” after his separation from his wife, the matter was a subject of much after-dinner comment. Curran’s opinion was once appealed to. “I protest,” said he, “I do not understand this kind of whimpering. Here is a man who first weeps over his wife, and th'en wipes his eyes with the pub’ lie.” Walking with a friend one day he met an Irish gentleman who had preserved his native brogue in a manner creditable to his patriotism after many years’ sojourn in England. He had acquired „a singular habit, of lolling out his tongue as he walked along. “What does he mean by it,” said the friend. clearly/ 1 said Curran, ‘,‘the man is trying to catch the English accent.” When informed that a dirty and stingy barrister of his acquaintance Went a journey with a shirt and a guinea, the comment was: “He will not change either till he comes back.”— Temple Bar.

He Had Been There.

A man who was struck by lightning and apparently killed, showed signs of life shortly afterward, and restoratives being applied he soon recovered. One of the by-standers wanted to know how it felt to be struck by lightning, and asked him what his sensations wete at the time the thunderbolt struck him. “Good heaven!” said he, “have - ! been struck by lightning?” “Certainly you have. Didn’t you know it?” “Gracious, no! I didn’t have the least suspicion that way.” “What di<J. you think was the matter?” “I didn’t know but I might have been f rying to kiss the hired girls and my wifediad come in unexpectedly."—Chicago Ledger.

ARE HAIR PINS INJURIOUS?

The largest percentage of neuralgic headache seems to be among ladies, and most certainly they have a cause. Some hare attributed it to the hair being tightly drawn over the head and held in place by hair pins; in this way the nerves of the scalp are irritated and neuralgia caused. Relief is sometimes experienced by removing the hair pins, but it is only temporary. J. P. Mallette, of the Mallette & Raymond Manufacturing Company, No. 329 South Canal street, Chicago, tells as follows how his wife was completely cured of neuralgia: “Yes; she was sick off and on for a long time, but a half bottle of Athlophoros cured her so that she has not suffered any since. When it was first recommended to her she would not get it, as she was always opposed to taking any kind of patent medicine. But as the treatment she was under gave her no relief, I insisted on her trying Athlophoros, After using half a bottle the neuralgia was gone, and has not returned since. I told a gentleman at the Walnut House, Greencastle, Ind., where I was stopping, to get a bottle, and if it did not cure the intense suffering that he was enduring he could have the cost of the medicine added to my hotel bill.” “Well, did it cure him?” “Yes; it cured him at once. I have recommended it to at least fifty different persons, and in every case that I know about it has always given the same good results.”’ James D. Gibbin, room 33, Ni>. 125 Dearborn street, Chicago, 111., is enthusiastic in his praise of the medicine that has cured him of his rheumatism after he had tried in vain many different remedies as well as physicians. “It was inflammatory rheumatism that had a firm hold on me,” he says. “Many times it laid me aside from my business, confining me to the house and many times to my bed. Medicine did me no good. It looked as if I was doomed to suffer on without any relief.” “How did you come to use Athlophoros, Mr. Gibbin?” * ..

“It was in this way. My occupation being that of a traveling man, I had the opportunity of coming in contact with many rheumatic sufferers, and consequently was recommended to use all the leading remedies on the market, many of which I used with no benefit whatever. During my trips to Beaver Dam, Wis., I became acquainted with a lady who was a confirmed invalid from rheumatism. She could not walk at the time I first met her, but was rolled around in an invalid chair. Whenever I went there we always. compared notes on the rheumatic question. One day last winter I was astonished to find her walking around and well from the rheumatism.. Upon inquiry as to how she got well she said Athlophoros had done the work. Knowing what a wonderful cure this was, as her case was a very severe one, I at once commenced using the medicine myself. The relief and cure was very quick.” “How much did vou take in all?” “Four bottles.” ‘ “Have you had any return of the complaint?” “Not at all.” If you cannot get Athlophobos of your druggist, we -will send it, express paid, on receipt of regular price—one dollar per bottle. We prefer that you buy it from your druggist, but if he hasn’t it, do not be persuaded to try something else, but order at once from us, as directed. Athlophokos Co. ( 112 Wall street, New York. ■

The Explosion of Dynamite.

The chronoscope of Captain Noble showed that explosion is transmitted through trains of dynamite at the rate of 20,000 to 24,000 feet per second. At this rate the explosion of a cartridge a foot long must only occupy the 24,000 th part of a second. A ton of dynamite cartridges of the usual size, about seven-eighths of an inch in diameter, laid end to end in a line, would stretch a mile, and the whole train could be exploded in the one-fourth part of a second by firing a cartridge at either of the ends. If fired in the middle of the line, the explosion would be transmitted both ways, and would occupy only the eighth part of a second. The facility with which dynamite can be fired in trains offers great advantage in many engineering operations,- such as where it is required to blow down an arch or a wall. It is enough to lay a train of cartridges along the crown of the arch, or along the bottom of the wall, and explode one cartridge in the usual way with a detonator. The whole train goes off instaqpy. The enormous velocity with which dynamite explodes explains the great violence of its actidn, and the tremendous local rupturing effects of even small quantities of it exploded in the open, and without being inclosed in. a case of any kind. The detonation of a cartridge in the 24,000 th part of a second must produce an enormous instantaneous pressure on .the spot on which it explodes. For such a sudden explosion the pressure of the atmosphete itself is sufficient tamping.— Scientific American.

“Have you seen the last Century, Mr. Hodges?” asked Maudie Flighty, who takes an interest in literary matters, of the old gentleman the other day. ‘ “Dqar me, no!” replied Hodges, somewhat nettled. “ Whatever put that idea into your head. I was born in Las Comet... For thirty years Dr. C.

The Partition of Poland.

Not any part of the country now bearing the name of Poland is a part of Germany, for Poland is altogether a dependency of Ihissia. But Germany, or rather Prussia, has taken several shares of the territory of the unhappy Poles at the several partitions of that country. The first partition was made in 1773, This divided a large part of Poland and its "people between /the three powers of Russia, Prussia, and Austria as follows: Territory, square miles. Population. Russia.. 42,000 1,801.000 Prussia-13,000 426,0)0 Austria 27,000 • The second partition, in 1793, divided additional territory between Russia and Prussia thus: Territory, square miles. Population. Russia96.ooo 3,000,000 Pru55ia....22,010 1,100,000 The third partition, in 1795, distributed the remainder of the country as follows: Territory, square miles. Population. Russia ,43,000 1,200,000 Prussia...2l,o3o 1,00.),000 Austrialß,ooo 1,010,000 In 1815 the Congress of Vienna made a rearrangement of this territory. The shares of Austria and Prussia were considerably diminished, and the parts taken from them were united as the Kingdom of I*olool, under the sovereignty of the Czar .of Russia. The partition, as' finally arranged, stood thus: Extent in square miles. Population. Russia22o,so3 16,000,000 Prussia^— -."rr.-i-rrA ■. ■ ■..26,000 3;OO0 S OCOAustria 35,500 5,000,000 The Russian share includedlen provinces, thoroughly incorporated into the Russian Empire, besides the part given the name of the Kingdom of Poland and a pretense of local self-govern-ment. The Prussian part included the Province of Posen and some smaller provinces; this is now-thoroughly incorporated with the German Empire, just as the Austrian part, containing Galicia and several smaller districts, is now an essential part of the Austrian Empire.— lnter Ocean.

When Not in Positive Agony,

The rheumafic are seldom free from a certain soreness or stiffness in the Joints or muscles, which'serves as a constant reminder-that the virus only waits an unfavorable change of weather, or the aid of a cold, to emphasize its presence with excruciating twinges. To prevent the recurrence and mitigate the pain, there is no fines- or safer source of relief than Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a medicine every way preferhble to the poisons, repeated infinitesimal doses of which are taken t > the prejudice of heajth and the jeopardy of life, and without a permanently remedial effect. Sleep, banished by rheumatic and neuralgic pain at night, is retstored by this beneficent soother of tho nervous system, and the slumber which it superinduces is far more refreshing and beneficial than the stupor into which the brain is thrown by a narcotic. Appetite and digestion, as well as sleep, are improved by it, arid it is an admirable regulator and tonic for the.b 3 wels and kidneys. Use it for rheumatism before retiring.

Salt Lakes.

In the Murghab Valley, Afghanistan, are two lakes of solid salt, which Captain Yate has ridden oyer and described. One, from which the Tekke-Turko-mans of Merv get their supplies of salt, is in a valley about six miles square, which is surrounded by a steep, almost precipitous descent, impassable for baggage-animals except by a single road. The bed of the lake, which is about 1,430 feet above the sea, is one solid mass of hard salt, perfectly level and covered by only an inch or- two of water. To ride over it was like riding over ice or cement. The bottom was covered with a slight sediment, but when that was scraped away the pure white salt shone out below. No one has ever got to the bottom of the deposit. The second lake is the one from which the Saryks of Penjdeh take their salt and is about 800 feet above the sea. The salt in this lake is not so smooth as in the other one and does not look so pure. It is dug out in flakes or strata, generally of some four inches in thickness and is loaded into bags and carried off for apfle without further preparation. ~
