THE TIMES,
Pittsburg, Penn'u. J
Intentions I'epied from 3a! are.
Most of theskill'ul devices invented
by men for doing fiae woik rapidly can
be traced to na'ure, where for cuntless
centuries they have b.en opera'iiiir.
The' discoverer of each new appliance
or mechanism might be shown that his
idea was as old as the bills. It is claim
ed that the inventors of the fu'ure will
bo those who carefully s'.ody the natur
al world.
The buhr stones of mills are another
I style of the molar teeth which grind all
Rri3t trmt feeds men and beas's.
I The hoofs of horses are rnde of piral-
le! plates lite carriage spriDgs. The
finfs G of hum an manufacture is a
rough ff ilr compared with tfco Dutch
rush used I y cabinet tinkers. TLe
of the turtle and tortise ari natural
cissors. The squirrel carries chisels 10
hia mouth, and the hippopotamus is
provided with adzs, which are con
stantly sharppnf-d as they are worn.
The carpenter 'd rilane is found in the
jaws of a lee. The woodpecker has a
powerful little trip hammer.
The diying bell imitates the work of
the water-spider, which constructs a
small cell under the water, clasps a bub
ble of air between Its hind-legs, and
dives down to its submarine chamber
with the bubble, displacing the water
?radaally until its abode with the fishes
contains a largs awy room surrounded
by water.
In laviog its egzs on the water the
gnat fastens them itito the. shape of a
life-boat, which it is impossible to siDk
without tearing it to pi-ces. The iron
mas: of a modern ship is strengthened
by deep ribs running along its interior.
A porcupine qtiil! is strengthened by
siniiUr iibs. When engineers found
than hollow teams were stronger than
solid ones, thev only discovered a prin
ciple that is very commonly seen in na
ture. A wheat straw, if solid could not
support its bead of graiu. Tha bones
of the higher animals are parous, and
those of birds, where lightness and
strength are roost beautifully combined,
are hollow. The frame wcrk of a ship
resembles the skeleton of a herring.
Aeronauts try to copy the structure and
movements cf birds.
Talis, the French potter, studied
sea side shells to learn the best method
of fortifying a town. The ship worm is
an admirable tunnel!er, boring his way
through any submerged timber, acd
lining the round passage with a bard
casing. The engineer Brunei took a
hint from this animal, and was the first
to succeed in tunnelling nnder water.
The Eld jstone Lighthouse is built on
'he plan of a tree truck, aud is fasteued
to the rock in a manner similar t y the
way a tree clings to the soil. It is sup
p Sfd that the firs: idea of a suspension
bridge was suggested by the creepers of
a tropical forest.
Vhen placs were wanted for the
London Ciystal P.tlace, Jeph Pjxion,
gardener to the Pake of Devonshire,
haxlrg noticed the structure, of the
gigantic lemvrs of the enormous wattr
lily Victoria IWia, a plant which hi.d
been introduced into L'cgland a few
years before, adopted the idea of copy
ing in ron the rios of the leaf, and fi I
ir.g the remaining space with glass. So
by patterning after nature, the obscure
fl rist tcanie Sir Joseph l'axton, the
great, architect.
Idols Hliicb Named Our Dajs.
In the museum at Berlin, in the hall
devoted to X-irtbem antiquities, tbry
have repr8eu.ations of the ido!s from
h ct the names of the dajsof the week
are derived. From the idol of the Sun
couai-s Sunday. This idol is represented
with his face like the sun. holding a
burning wheel, with both bands on his
breast, signifying bis conrs round the
ria. "oi or me Moon, from
which comes Monday, is habited in a
short oat, like a man, but holding the
moon in bis hands. Tuisco. from which
comes Tuesday, was one of the most
ancient aid tcpotar gods of the Ger
m.ns nl represented in bis garments
of ek n, according to their peculiar
manner of clothing ; the third day of
the week was dedicated to hs worship.
Woden, from which comes Wednesday,
was a valiant prince among the Sack
ons. His image was prayed to 'or vie.
lory. Thor, from whence cornea Thurs
day, !a seated in a bed, with twelve
stars above bis head, holding a scepter
in hia band. Friea, from whence we
tinVf Friday, is reprsented with a drawn
sword in his right hand, and a bow in
hts left. Sr-ater, from which is Satur
day, baa the appearance of perfect
wretchedness. He is thin-Yiaaged.
loug haired, with a :ong beard. He

wherein are fruit and flowers.
Can Animals Count Z
lIouiau de la TTaine, tells of a peli
can living in a fisherman's family at
Sn's D-imicgo that was fed upon the
refust. of the fish-cle?ning. Looking
for ita iood, it went to the shore every
day and waited for the boats to com
back. The fishermen rested on Sunday,
aud the bird acquired so clear a notion
of tne return of that day, when it had
to fast, that it would not stir from the
nee on which it was accustomed to
spend ita time. It Is not necessary to
suppose that the pelican nad learned to
cojoi the six dajs at the end o which
ite masters wou:d not go fisbicg ; bur,
while it reallly estimated daily the
time when it must make its excursion
to the ehoie, it was informed of
the rtturn of Sunday by obejeva
ilor. of what was going on in
too bouse, aa. for instance, by the fish
ermen putting on their Sunday clothes-

have the faculty of associatirg ideas, of
observing consecutive fac s, and esiab

Legend of the rhrNfmas Tree.
U s, cbiidren bave enen a Criri'rras
tree, ani? many know tliit tbe pretty
aud pleasant custom of banging gifts
on its boughs comes from Germiny ;
butperbapa tetr have heard or read the
story that told to little German
children, respecting; the origin of this
custom. Tbe story !s called "The Lit
tle Stranger." and mna thus :
In a small cottage rra the borders of a
forest lived a poor labirpr, who tra!n-d
ascaaty living: by cutting wood. H
had a wife and I wo chi'.dr"n who
help d him in his work. Tb boy's name
was Valentine, and th giJ was culled
Miry. They were obJint, gttol chil
dren, and a great comfort to their
parents. One winter evening, this hap
py family were sitting quietly rffund the
hearth, the snow racing ou's:d, while
they ate their supper of dry bread", when
a gentle tap was hear! on the window,
and a childish voice cried from wi'L
out: "Oh, let me in, I pray ! I ara a
poor little child with nothing to eat and
no borne to go to, and I shall die of
cold and banger unless you let me ln.,T
Valentine and Mary juaopd up from
the table and ran to open the door, say
ing : Come in. por little child j We
have not much to give you, but what
ever we have we will share with you."
The strang-er ehild came in and
warmed his frozen feet at the fire, and
the children gave blm the beet they had
to eat. saying. "You must be tirert.
too. poor cild ! Lie down on our bed ;
we can sleep on the bench for oce
night."
Then la'.d the littl stranger-child :
"Thank God for all your kindness to
me."
So th y took their little guest into
thefr sleeping- room, laid him on tb
bed, covered him over, t nd saiJ to each
other : "How thankful we ought to
be ! 'We have warm rooms and a ccay
bed. while this poor child has only
heaven for bis roof and the- cold earth
for his sleeping place."
When their fathf-r and mother went
to bed, Mary and Valentine lay quite
contentedly on tbe bench near the fire,
saying, before they fell as'etp: "The
strangf r chiid will be so happy to-night
in his warm bed !"
These kind children had not slept
many hours before Mary awoke atid
whispered to her brother : "Va:Uine,
listen to the sweet music under the win
dow." Then Va'entir.e mibbed his ejts and
listened. It was sweet music indeed,
and sounded like beautiful voicea sing
ing to the tones of a harp :
"O holy Cbild, we Kreet tbee ! brinKiOR
Sweet strains of barp to aid our pinging
"Tbon, holy Child, io peace art sleeping
Wbile we our watch without are keeping
"Blest be tbe house wherein tbou llest.
Ilappies: on earth to heaven the nlRbest."
The children listened, while a solemn
joy Oiled their hear. s ; then they step
ped softly to the window to see who
might be without.
Io the. east was a streak of roiy
dawn, and In its light they saw a group
of children standing before the house
clothed ia silver garments, holding
golden harps in their bands. Amr-d
at this sight, the children were still
gazing out of the window, when a Dght
tap caused them to turn round. There
slood the stranger child before- Ibero
clad in a golden drets, with a gltanaiLg
radiance round his curling hair. "I ara
the little Christ-child," he said, "who
wanders through the world bringing
peace ani happiness to g.od children.
You took me in and cared for me wheo
you thought me a poor chi'd, and now
yoa shall have my blessiog for what yoa
have done." A fir tree grew near the
bouse ; and from this he broke a twig,
which he plan'ed in the ground saying :
"This twig shall become a tree, and
sbali bring forth fruit year by year for
yoa." No sooner had he done this that
be TaDisbed, and with bim the little
choir of angels. But tbe fir-branch
grew and became a Cnristm is t rc and
on its branches hung golden atp4es and
tilvet nuts eery Christmas tide. Such
is the story told to German ohiidren
concerning their beautiful Cbnsimas
trees, though we know that the leal lit.
tie Christ-chiliican never be wandering
cold and homeless, again in. OJr wor d,
inasmuch as he is safe in brawn by bis
Father's side: yet we may gather from
this story the same truth which the
Bible plamlv. tells us that any one who
be'ps a Christian child in iistress, it
will be counted unto him a if he bad
indeed done it unto Chriet himself.
"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto tbe
least of these, by bretbern, ye have
done It unto me."
W Inning Frleads.
It is bad policy to be haughty, repel
lant, unsocial. The most resolute and
determined aspirant to wealth or posi
tion may stumble as be climbs, and if
no one stretches out a finger to save
bim, may roll headlong to a depth far
below the point front: which he started..
'An eye for an eye, a tooth tooth,"
waatheold law in Judba. A lift for a
lift is the business rule of to-day, asd
if sometimes broke a by the ungrate Jul
wten there is most need, o? its obeeir
aaee. it certainly works better than tbe
principle that a man should care utter
ly for himself, ueither gifing not re
ceiving assistance.
But it is not from prudential motives
merely that tha energetic asd persever
ing assist each other. All men of vig
orous minds and elastic temperaments
sympathize with effort. Thy honor
the individual who has fought gallant
ly the battle of lire, though reverses
may have overtakeu him,, they recog
niza him as a kindred spirit, though be
lies on bis back ; they are willing to
give him a 'boost because they feel
that be needs but a new f 00' hold to
assure bis ultimate sucossa. Ta?se are
among the reanons why men who are
true to themselves, are almost invaria
bly true to each other, and why their
friendship and sraopithv mean some
thing more than words.
Let no one, whatever his talen's. his
opportunities or bis conflJeae in bis
own powers, despise the alliance of such
men. No human bein ever was or
will be eaptble of achieving emlneuce
in tbe business world without at least
tbe indirect help of others. Therefore,
let all young men who are entering bus
lne;s life labor in a manly and just way
to uaie Ir'.e!n?.5R-rt ct th rht sort.
