quarters of the colonel or at his oSice,

is w hen the regiment parades, and these
f a-s are to be brought to the troops,
that the escort to the color is carried
out
When the regiment baa formed line
on tae parade, the colonel details a coia
pjay to bring the colors and escort rhem
to their plat-e in the lina The comp. ny
c:arches in column of platoons, headed
by the band, which doea not play as
the march down the front of the line is

fu.nhful soldiers appointed to these de-tin-d
places by reason of long sen ice
and military bearing, inarch between
the two platoons. Upon arriving in
front of the building where the flags
are ktpt hue is furrm-d, the band stand
liig on the right of the escort.
The first lieutenant, with drawn
eword. followed by the two color r

sergeant armed with a rifle, enters the
Luiidiug and receives the fiapA When
the color lsrcr" appear, followed by

UiS the escort Arms are presented, and
the field music (the trumpeters) sound
h thrilling call named "To the color, "
during the sound of which all stand mo
tionless, with arms at the present After
the sounding of the color has ended
arms are brought to the order, and then
column of platoons is reformed, the
two color sergeants taking place be
tween the two platoons, and thus guard
ed, the march is taken cp. the band
playing a spirited air.
Around the shady main avenue of the
post marches the escort, each soldier
erect and appearing as if he felt ihat the
Cugs were intrusted to him alone in
stead of to the company of which he
forma so small a part How each man
steps out to the strains of the march,

cers' quarters, the porches of which are
tiled with the wives, daughters and
sweethearts of the officers parading,
pjes the escort
The respect for the flag is not con
fined to the wearers of the army blue,
for as tho escort passes each house
these true aud loyal women cease their
talk and stand quietly till the flag has
passed, when the interesting discussion
or the latest news is resumed. Past a
group of enlisted men not required to
attend the parade marches the escort
lluch man stands "attention." and re
moves his cap. A group of small boys
et play is next passed. Every oue, a
true soldicr'6 son, stands, cap in hand,
till Old Glory has passed. I have seen
tins same small boy grow tip, pass
through the "Point" and command one
cf the platoons in the escort nfter grad
uation and maybe in the same company
commanded by his father. This march
around the post has at last brought the
escort opposite the right of the line of
paraded troops, when the colonel com
mands attention, and down the line
passes the glittering guard
On reaching a point in the front of
the center of the paraded command the
escort forms line facing the regiment,
the two color sergeants marching to the
front till 13 paces in front of the colonel
end his staff. Arms are then presented
to the flags by command of the colonel,
and while the trumpeters again sound
"to the color" the flags are allowed to

in acknowledgment of the "present,"
and uow the moment is one to nil the

HOMEMADE ELECTRICITY.
Some Simple Methods by Which It May
Be Generated.
It has been discovered that if a lfeel
knife and a silver fork be inserted in a
large orango an electric current will be
generated. If the end of the f.rk aud
the end of the knife sticking from the
orange be connected with an electric
measuring instrument, quite a percepti
ble current will be found to pass. The
same kind of a battery may be made by
substituting a cucumber for the orange
In fact, any acid fruit may be used.
In order to make a voltaic pile it is
only necessary to procure ten or more
pieces of tine about an inch square, the
aame number of pieces of copper and a
like number of pieces of paper The
pappr 6hould be thoroughly soaked in
vinegar
First take a piece of zinc. On it
pl-vce a pioc cf vinegar soaked pnper.
then put on a piece of copper, then a
piece of paper, then another zinc and
then paper, aud eo on until all the
pieces of tine, copper ana pap r have
been used. It is importa.it that a piece
of zinc should be on oue end and a piece
of copper on the other After the pile U
oumploted again soak the whole slight
ly in vinegar; then clean it oJ ou the
outside.
If the forefinger cf one hand be held
against one end and the forefinger of
the other hand be held ou the other end
of the pile, quite a perceptible current
will be felt If several persons clasp
bands and the persons on each end of
the liiie touch the voltaic pile, the cur
rent will flow through the bodies of ail
those in porition.
The thermopile is another electrlou
current producer that may be made in
any household at a trifling expense
The electric current is generated in this
case Ly heat, and anything from a can
dle to a live coal may be ast d to pro
duce the heat Take a lot of German
silver and copper wire an cut it into
eix inch lcagths Then take a German
silver length and a copper length and
twist the ends together Vou will have
a V shaped arrangement of wire. Take
another length of German silver wire
and twist oue end of it tightly around
the copter cud of the V Continue the
process until yon have a long succession
of what might be called W's or double
V's arranged with alternate pieces ol
copper aud German silver wire.
Now take two large curtain rings.
Bend your string cf wire lengths until it
has assumed the position of a star and
damp it between the two curtain rings.
One end of the string of win s thould
be copper and the other Germau silver.
Yen will find when these are clampea
between the curtain rings that the in
ner poicts cf the star form a small cir
cle m the middle of the rings. The
rings should Lc placed on uprights and
a caudle should b lighted, so that the
fl;;i';e will play between the inner
points of the star. New York Herald.
MODERN NEWSPAPERS.
There Are No rrtjndiree Id the Way ol
tlie Nc Juarnalijit.
The new journalist has no prejudice
that interfere with his business ends
The founder of his school was the firs
man to make an absolutely nonpartisan
paper, and the successful men 1 talked
with declared that the best way com
mercially to make an editorial pege
was to turn it over to some man with
mind and character who would direct
its policy independently and in good
faith in the interests of the community
as a whole, regardless of jiartics,
cliques, advertisers or any other inter
ests, however powerful. But while this
is tx ing done the business man who
proposes to conduct the enterprise
would have an equally independent
news department, and, having the most
intelligent readers to begin 'cith, he
vould broaden the news policy from
their point of view, spending as much Hi
sensationalism costs for more important,
better written news In short, the com
mercial ideal contains distinct apprecia
tion of the power of opinion, but it
prizes just as highly the value of the
authoritative statement of all the news.

The huckster pulled in his horse and
raised his ear to listen to the commands

woman had not the lung power to make
her voice carry so far, and the huckster
called out, "How's that?"
Again the woman called, and ber
voice came down faintly. The huckster
didn't tnow whether she wanted pota

ho marked the fourth flat from the cor

there waiting for him and called out
once more, but be couldn't understand
her.
Gathering a handfal of samples cf
various vegetables from his stock, he
mounted four flights of back stairs and
arrived at the top panting. The woman
stood there awaiting his coming.
"Couldn't bear what yon said, lady,"
said the huckster. "So 1 brought up
some of each kind an you can pick what
you want an I'll go down an get rciu."
"Want?" said the woman, who was

The huckster stood with set eyes and

off his chin, while this harangue was
going on. When she had finished, ho
came out of bis trance and said:

"Ithaca," the other responded. In a
few moments the city disappeared froia

different direction, the railroad having
made a curve.
" What city is that?" ho asked again.
"That is Ithaca,"
Once more the place disappeared and
in due time came into view again, ap

" What city is that?" ho asked again:
"That is Ithaca. "

in a very decidi-d manner, and 1 know
of muuy persons who find it a very ad
mirable means of preserving their
health and tone. Of course the tepid
bath can be taken all through the win

prefer the cold sponge bath every morn

who have a good reaction after it I do
not think wo value cold and tepid
sponging as highly as we ought Dr.

IN THE ANIMAL KINGDOM.
The Itirtlon of Life Varies According; to
ClrcnuiaUtuces.
Among tho long livtd iu tbe animal
kingdoni we may moiition birds, rioli
and reptiles, altboBpii evt-u iu the lower
animals the duration of life varies iia
nienMdr. aw.rding to the s:-its. Of
fijh, the carp tre especially loug lived.
Amoug birds, some cf the parrot spe
cies are an.-. posed to live over 100 year.
The swan, tiie raven, the eapde, are also
crediu-tl with great length of life.
In the iisunimalia, the elephant at
tains the greatest aga It grows for 25
to SO years aud ia said to live from 100
to 150 years und eveu longer. We have
no a.x-urato means of ascertaining tho
whale's ago. A lion is said to have lived
70 years in the Towur, but there is uo ev
idence that he attains any thins like that
age iu the natural state. Forty years is
recorded by naturalists as the extreme
age The camel may attain the age of
t0. It cat.4 little and drinks les& The
torso is comparatively a short lived ani
mal, but it is a well knowu fact that
when he does little work and pisses the
greater part of his days iu pasture ho
rnoy attain to about 40 years of life,
but w hen a horso is bard worked ami
fed, nioreovtr, upon beans, oats aud
ether ossifying foods his days are much
shorter.
In the vegetable kingdoni the yew at
tains great aga Those at Fountains ab
bey are about 1,200 years old. Two
orange trees at Kome, planted reepvo
tively ty fc't Dominic and Thomas
Aquinas, are said to be from 600 to 000
years old, and there are records cf trop
ical trees thut, counting by their rin;;a,
are supposed to have attained tho age
of 800 to 1,000 years. Nineteenth Cen

American and Engliii tourists w ho
Tinned Itc.hl, in Austria, recently were
confronted w ith the follow ing notice oa
a siguloard over the door of oue of the
hostelnes of the place, "To the gentle
mans Englaudcrs and Americant-rs, here
you bectJiiu asses. " Upon inquiry it
was learned that the purport of the sin
gular sign was that the proprietor of the
place Lad donkeys to let w hich were
used for excursions into the neighboring
mountains. A much traveled cobbler.
Who professed to be able to master thfc
English language, was responsible for
the unique wording of the sign. He had
translated the Germau seutence, "An
die Herreu Fnglander and Amerikauer,
bier bekotumt ihr Esel, " the latter four
words meaning "here you can hire
aeoea. "
Too Much Salt.
The New York Journal of Hygiene
says that many people eat altogether
too much colt The result is that tho
ikin and kidneys are excessively taxed
to get rid of tho salt, and both are in
jured by it Few people have healthy
skins, and it is believed that many
cases ot derangement of the kidneys are
due to the salt habit
