When a Ttrdan. youth called at the
otHce of the Texas Plumbago and applied
for a position the other day, the editor,
wasn't very busy ja.it then, put him
through an examination to determine
hi9 tllDtttS.
'Who discovered America ?"
"Klunibus, Pdhaw ; aak me a harder
question ?"
"Who was the flrst man V"
Adiui.- Why, Mister, I know all"
"Wbat was his other name
"His other name ? Wby, be didn't
have none."
"Yes, he did. His other name was
Ebenezer Ebmezer Adam, Esq., late
of l'aradise Center. How many bones
are there in a bumam body ?"
"Well. I forget just now, I did know
wunat."
"Why ! dont you know that ? Every
school-boy knows there are 7,i?2,C4l,-
041 bones in an ordinary man, when he
isn't eatlug mackerel. A maa who
aorea has one more bone than other
1-eople."
"What bone is that ?" .
"The trombone, of course. It Is situ
ated Bomewbare in the nose. Von
won't forget that, will yon ?"
He said be woulden't.
"How long would it take a mud turtle
to cross the desert of Sahara with
mall orpbant boy to touch him up
behind with a redhot poker ?"
"Well, look here, Mr. Editor, if 1
bad a slate and pencil, I could figure
that out ; but doe my skin If I am
much on mental 'ritbmetie."
"Slate and pencil ! Did you ever see a
slate and pencil about a sanctum 1
Nonsense. Wall, let that question slip,
Have you got a good constitution ?"
'Pretty tol'ble."
"How long do vou sappose you could
live on raw corn and faith and do the
work of a domesticated elephant ?"
"Lord ! I don't believe I could live
more'n a week."
"Well, that's is about as long as you
would want to live it you got a position
on the Plumbago. I shall now ask you
one more question, and if you prove
equal to it you can peel off your coat
and sail in."
"I.t's have'er. squire. You'll find
me on deck with both feet and a cane
"Well. sir. if two diametrical circles
with octagonal peripheries should col
lide with a centrifugal idiosyncracy or
to put it plainly "
"l'ut it plain as you can. bass."
"Wall, say It collides with an asphyx
iated desuetude what effect would the
catastrophe exert on the crystallized
codfish suspended by the tail from the
homogenous rafters of the empyrean ?"
The verdant youth wanted to bear no
more, but grabbing his hit bejmade a
a wild dash for the street and disap
peared. A l ure for a Bud Temper.
A wife went to a dervish for a charm
that should cure Ler busbtLd of his
very bad temper. She told the wise
man that they disagreed daily, and that
jn the end, he always flew Into a ras
slon and beat her, though at times he
was fond aad kind. The wise man took
from Ms bundle a full bottle and gave
it to the womaa s.yiog ; Here is a
charmed liquid. The minute you see
signs of anger in your husband, fill your
mouth with it, and be careful to hold it
there, until the last trace of ill-temper
has disappeared. Oa no account, must
you swallow or lose one drop of if.
When this is gone come to me for
more." A month later the woman
came back all smiles and thanks, with
a great gold piece to exchange for more
of tbe precious liquor. "Indeed, fath
er," she said, "I would not be without
your chirm for my life. Tbe moment
my husbind btgins to fret I run and fill
my month, and in a little while be is
gentle and-good again. He bas not
struck me once in all the month. All
that I have I will give you for the pre
clous water." The dervish smiled,
then sud : "My daughter, the
charmed liquid was only water. Go
you to the well and rill your bottle
when you will. The only charm is
silence. You could not talk back ; and
in all my experience, it has taken two
to make a quarrel."
Thunderstorm Hours.
The remarkable fact that thunder
and lightning seldom occnr over the
ocean except at night is shown by tbe
recently issued meteorological report of
the Challenger expedition. During the
voyage twenty-six thunderstorms over
the open sea were encountered, of
which twenty-two occurred during the
ten hours from 10 r. i. to t a. m., and
only four during tbe other fourteen
hours of the day. Of tbe 209 reported
cases of lightning without thunder, 1S
occurred daring the ten hours from 6.
r. M. to 4 A. m. The following are the
hours of tbe maxima of these phenome
na in tbe Summer months over tbe
land and the open sea respectively :
Tuunderscorms over land, 2 to 6 r. m.
lightning over the open sea, 8 r. v. to
4 a. m. ; and thunderstorms over tbe
open sea, 10 r. x. to S. a. m.

Habit makes the man, but man makes
tbe habit. It is here where we want to
get In the word. A habit seems a little
thing in its self, but it is the most terri
ble tyrant that rules the world. And it
dose role it, say what we will. Now, it
is essential in this life of ours to start
right if we are going to come out right.
And tbe best thing to start with is a
good habit. It is just as easy when a
young man is forming bis habits to
form good ones as bad ones, Good
habits are not expensive. A virtue
does not cost a quarter as much to sup
port as does a vice.
TVe sometimes wonder how It is that
a bing with brains, with intelligence,
with reason, could ever have become a
slave to habit. It dose not seem possi
ble that a man cannot order his conduct.
But we muse recognize facts. Men are
victims or habits. They do not see
that they are bound until tbey try to
get free, and the strong powei of habit
asserts itself. How does this terrible
despot conquer dthemind. the will, the
man ? What is this invisible force that
drives tbe rtrongest and brigtbest with
a rod of iron ? It is only an act repeat
ed again and agaic, but it becomes a
second nature, a part of the mau, and
It bas conquered by the power of
reinforcement by repetition.
The only way to be superior to bad
habits Is never to acquire them. Do
not do the first bad act. Stop before
you begin to go wrong. The time when
a man is saved is when he is young.
Tbe time to plant or sow is in tbe seed.
A bad haoit will end in a bad lire.
Watch the reet or tbe boy. and tbe
man's will not need watching.
It is enly a foot from a bad habit to
a good one, but it is a mile back again.
We may lose in an hour all we have
gained in a year. We can undo in a
day what we baye done in a lifetime.
A habit is a plant of which an act is
the seed. I- will bear fruit if It be a
good act, but ashes if it be a bad act.
It is the first step that starts the race.
To start right is the bes; way to go
right aBd to end right. Never let a
habit fasten to your life.
Baldness and Its Causes.
There are many different opinions at
to the causa of baldness. Sjme of the
eminent medical authorities state that
it is caused by a form of dandruff. Tnia,
it is claimed, has been verified by taking
the hair which has fallen off in such
cases, inbbiog it up with vaseline, and
after applying the ointment so made to
the fur of rabbits baldness has rapidly
made its appearance on tbe parts so
treated. When vaseline alone was used
this result did not follow. The same
authority says that the disease is spread
by hairdressers, who employ combs and
brushes en their customers, one after
another, without regard to the cleanli
Dees of those artic'5. Womn are less
liable to be affectrd by this form of
baldness, for the reason that their hair
is usually dressed at home.
On tbe other ,and som fclaim that
t(Z In quent cutting of the hair is detri
mental. Tbe hair In some respects re
sembles a tree. Suppose tbe gardner
were to clip all the limbs from a tree,
regardless of the season of the year, as
soon as tbey were two or three feet in
length. How long could the tree be ex
pected to survive? There it a fluid sub
stance in each hair from which the hair
gets its nourishment the same as tbe
tree gets its lire and growth from the
sap wbich'ls conducted from its roots.
Break tbe bark of a tree and you will
soon see the sap running down the
trunk. Tbe same thing is believed to
take place when a hair is eat. only it is
not visible to tbe naked eye. A nnm
ber of tbe better class of barbers are en
deavoring to overcome this evil by
singeing the ends of the hair after cut
ting. This hermetically seals tbe ends
and. prevents tbe escape of any fluid.
J This operation is performed with the
aid of a small wax taper. Tbe hair is
raised from tbe head with a comb and
the lighted taper passed rapidly across
the en da. The operation is neither
Udious not unpleasant. Those that
practice this style or treating the hair
state that much good has resulted rroxt
the process.
History or Sleeping Cars.
The first sleeping car was invented
by Theodore T. Woodruff, who toi op
his model in tbe office or James Tilling-,
hast, at Home, N. Y., in 1 $54, the latter
at that time being in the service of the
Rome and TVatertowo Railroad. Mr.
"Woodruff endeavored to Interest Mr.
Tillingfcast tofficiently In his invention
to advance the cost or securing a patent
rrom the government, but be did not
have sufficient raith In its posaloilitles
and declined. Tbe model which he
constructed in Mr. TllllngbasL'a office
was carried to Springfield. Mass.. in an
old rasbloned bandaana bandkerchier
and submitted to Mr. Watson, the ear
builder, who, notwithstanding an al
most universal expression or disapproval
by his employes, built a trial car. which
made its first trip on the New York
Central and Rome and Western Rail
roads, and later was taken toCleve'and,
Cincinnati and other Western cities.
This car afterward became tbe prop
erty or tbe Ohio and Mississippi Rail
road Company on whose line it was reg
ularly run. Woodruff soid the right to
build and nse hi" sleeper on tbe Kew
York and Central railroad to Mr. Web
s'er Wagner, and on tbe Buffalo and
Erie road to Mr. George Gates. Tbe
"Gates' sleepers ran rrotu 1&39 to 1S73.
when they also passed into Wagner's
bauds, rullman sleepers were intro
duced in 1564 or ISG., be having made
a number of important improvements
on the productions of his predecessors.
It was V.2 that Wagner and Gates built
their first car, having tbe same general
features as those now used. .

Tons of ewspapers.
Since October. 1S88, an Important
work In connection with tbe cataloguing
and rearranging of tbe files of the news
papers of tbe United Kingdom bas been
goiojr on at the British Museum. The
work has n( w been brought down to
1873. Evuy volume has bten cart-fully
rituiiM d. bud all tbe important paints
in r8md to il indicated in the cata
logue. Much labor bas been spent in
siring and arranging ibe papers year by
year. By this means a considerable
amount of press-room bas been gained.
Tbe papers are arranged according to
date. Every volume is numbered out
side. Each year has a distinct set of
numbers, except in ibe case of tbe ear
lier dates, where the number of volumes
in a year is so small as to make this un
necessary. The year 1S31 is represented
by only 41 volumes, each volume con
taining tbe files of from two to rive
newspapers, while 1840 has 80 volumes,
1S50 bas 130 volumes. I860 bas 25S vol
umes and 1870 bas 327 volumes; while
for 1SS7 tb-re are no fewer than 372 vol
umes; 1S47 takes up 3 presses occupyiny
a space of 39 square feet, while 1SS7 re-,
quires 16 presses and oecupies 307 square
feet. There are more than 1.200 dls
tinct papers for 1S87, while for 1847 the
number did not exceed 300.
The approximate weight of Eoglish,
Scotch and Irish papers ia tbe presses at
tbe Museum is 450 tons. Tbe Dies for
thirteen Tears bare still to be gone
through before tbe work is complete.
As soon as this is done a list of the news
papers, with their reepective numbers,
will be placed in the reading room, and
It will then be as easy to obtain tbe Cle
ef a newspaper of a hundred years ago
as it now is to procure any book in the
reading room. It may be explained that
all tbe London newspapers since 1S00
are kept quite dis.inct from the pro
vincial journals. They are contained in
tbe west wing where the same plan of
sizing, numbering and cataloguing has
been carried out an bas been adopted in
connection with tbe provincial papers.
The London daily papers, however, are
arranged in sets on the ground fljoi,
and are obtainable at once.
rionins- M ith Sticks.
It would make an bouest Americau
farmer smile out loud to see tbe way
the larjd is plowed by Peruvians. From
six to a dczin teams of oxen are put at
work in a field of twerity ortbirtj acres.
The oxen are yoked by tying a heavy
beam across tbeir forehead and ia front
of tbe boms. To this beam tba plow
is attached, all tbe fores being applied
by the bead instead of tbe shoulders.
Tbe plow is a crooked stick or
branch of a tree, the point faced wiib
iron. Peruvians contend tba. thev do
Dot need to plow moie than two or
three iuches deep, simply enough to
loosen tbe soil so as to enable the seed
to take root. Tbe water used in Irriga
ting is said to be rich in plant food.
j luuun uuvibiu i Lie uecrusujr oi uerp
i plowing.
Improved plows suitable for tha
country are now manufactuied in Eu
rope and the Uniltd S.ates, but tbey
are very different from tbe plow, used
by ac American farmer. Tbey aie
light, aod small haviug a c'ose resemi
blance to tbe origiual crooked slick.
Every Peruvian .Iow b s tu o e
handle. Tbe driver carries in one haud
a huge goad twelve or Gfieen feet iu
lengib. with which to touch up bis
Iam. and be manages tbe plow with
the other hand. The irrigating ditches
must then be connected with tbe canal
which brings tbe water from tbe river
and which traverse Ibe fiki at a dis
tance of three to four feet apart and
are six to eight inches deep.
Tbey are so arranged that tbe whole
fl Id can be instantly flxded by turning
on the water, and every hill of corn or
potatoes or sugarcane will be thorough
ly soaked. Of course, the fields must
slope in tbe right direction, and if na
ture has so made it tbe level is reduced
sufficiently before it is plowed.
ThinkiDg Farmer.
Farmers as a class are not thicker?.
Too much bard work, inducing fatigue
and a necessHy fvr rest, is the reason.
Mm of thought succeed lest. Wou'd
it not be better tor the farmer to toil
lss and think mora than ever before ?
There'riiust come an end to tbe expen
diture ot enery. If tbe farmer spends
all his time in manual toil, be has uot
much left for brain work. Our facul
ties are strengthened as we used them.
With more thought there would le
more brain power more ability to grap
and surmount problems and dilTicu't'es
on tbe farm. More thought would
lead the farmer up out of more than ooe
rut that of party, for instance, to
see and appreciate something more tban
pany interest." It would take bim
out of bis isolation and help to extend
the arm of co operation and more iu
telligent effort. He might cot be. to
sure and steadfast a party man, but be
would be a more eftrclive farmer aod
better for himself. He would be found
more regufarly at tbe institutes, would
eut scribe tor lietter agricultural papers
and read tbem with prcfi'. He would
not be so much the creature of tradi
tion.
How can this be brought about ?
Only by constant and perse e to; work
in pushing all tbe lines of instrnction.
The first work is to root out prtjudice
and create an appetite for knowledge.
Great gains bave been made within a
few years. The successful are those
who most quickly adjust themselves to
tbe times, who trim their sails to catch
allbretzs. In other words, every op-,
porlunity is pressed into their service.
