Our sun is a third-rate sun, situated in the milky way, one of myriads of stars, aiid the milky way is itself one of myriads of sectional star accumula tions, for these seem to be countless, and to be spread over infinity. At some period of their existence each f these suns had planets circling around it, which, after untold ages, are fit for some sort of human being to inhabit them for a comparatively brief period, after which they still continue for years to circle around without atmosphere, vegetation or inhabitants, as the moon does around our planet. There is noth ing so calculated to take the conceit on; of an individual who thinks himself an important unit in the universe as astronomy. It teaches that we are less, compared with the universe, than a col ony of ants is to us, and that the differ ence between men is less than that be tween one ant and another.—London Truth. The number of new books printed in France last year was 13,123. DO YOU FEEL LIKE THIS? Pen Picture for Women.

Mrs. Williams of Englishtown, N.J., has been entirely cured of such illness and misery by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, and the guiding advice of Mrs. Pinkham of Lynn, Mass.

ON THE FARM AT THE CLOSE OF DAY 0 the farmer's boy is bringing Up the cows, But the birds have censed their swinging On the boughs; He ran hear the squirrels chatter, As if something were the matter, While the chestnuts pitter-patter Through the leaves! While the big, red sun is sinking. While the old cow bell is clinking, lie is thinking, thinking, thinking— And he grieves. Far away the peacock's calling To his mate, And the night is falling, falling, For it's late! On the slope the light is dying, High above, the geese are flying. And the wind goes sobbing, sighing, Past the lad. As if in mourning, as if grieving. For some pleasure past achieving Or some error past retrieving— Ah, how sad! Summer's flowers have departed, And he goes Onward, home' *d, heavy-hearted, With his woes! There is sadness in the lowing Of the cows and in the flowing Of the water that is going— Going where? On the hill the shocks arc gleaming Where the sun's last rays are stream ing— And they stand like old men dreaming Sadly there! Ah, the day is dying, dying, And the year Soon with others will be lying In the rear! And the hoy goes grieving, grieving, Not for triumphs past achieving, Nor for errors past retrieving Here below! He has had to pass through bramLles Jn his quest and in the rambles, In his liurryings and scrambles — On his toe There's a bruise, and there are scratches On his legs in bloody batches! 'Tis no poet's view he catches— We '. list blame the briar patches For his woe! —S. E. Kiser, in Chicago Timea-llerald. PITH AND POINT. Visitor—"And who are you, my little man?"

The following excerpt from Marga ret Macnulay's little volume on lier brother, which was printed in IStil for private circulation, shows Macaulay's cat-like ability .to fall on his feet: "One day Tom said jokingly that there are some things which always inclined him to believe in the predominance of evil in tho world. Such, he said, as bread always falling on the buttered side, and the tiling you always want being the last you come to. 'Now, I will take up volume after volume of this Shakespeare to look for Hamlet. You will see that I shall come to it the last of nil.' The first volume he took opened ou Hamlet. Every one laughed. 'What can he a stronger proof of what I said?' cried he; 'for the first time in my life I wished that what I was looking for would conic up last, and for the first time In my life it has come up first.' Argonayt. "Vainest Man In Twenty Stories." The elevator boy In a great Broad way building was talking (and a New Y'ork Tribune writer was listening): "Hid you see that fellow looking at himself so admiringly in tue glass com ing down. He's the vainest man in the twenty stories. I've picked out all the passengers who like their looks the best, and i know who is the champion glass user ou every floor. There are over 300 men and 100 girls who ride up with tne mornings. The men have twenty-one first prizes for conceit, and the girls have only three. The girls never look in the glass unless they are sure I'm nor looking. If I was as pretty as the typewriter in 40(11 would never go away front home. I'd ft'ay in and just look at myself." HINTS FOR LOCAL REPORTERS. Don't Crowd tho Unimportant Detail! to tiltt Front. Tlio tempt at inn to erotvd unimpor tant details to the front Is always lie fore the reporter for a purely local pa per In a small city. To yield is to lose perspective and to impair the vivid ness of the story. Local dignitaries, local scenes and local musicians arc in view before the real proceedings begin, and the re porter often discusses them at some length at the opening of his account of the lecture, or political meeting, or other public function. He does this partly because it is a habit, partly because he may feel the need of making copy and has nothing else in sight, and partly because the local people expect to receive this kind of attention. The visiting reporter is more likely to pass over unessential preliminary details and bring out at once the spirit of the meeting and the things of real importance and genuine interest to the reader. A close comparison of different re ports of the same events long ago con vinced me that tho visiting reporter for an out of town paper, regardless of comparative ability, usually wrote a better story than the man for the home paper who lived on the ground and ap parently had a decided advantage in his knowledge of the place and the people. Why this was the case it was hard to discover. I could only feel the fact and wonder why it should he so. One night I went to a town fifty miles away and was a visiting report er myself, sitting by the side of tho man who was doing the meeting for the local paper. We were waiting for the beginning of a political debate iu which the whole Congressional Dis trict was intensely Interested. I looked at tho scene, without doing so consciously, from the standpoint of the whole district, and had little to write until the debaters took the plat form and the struggle began. The re porter for the local paper, on the con trary, was busy from the time of his arrival. He described the stand, gave the names of the committeemen in charge of its construction, catalogued tho local dignitaries seated ill public view, and laboriously ground out a compli ment to the band in this fashion: "While waiting for the exercises to begin Professor Gustav ranged his baud of fourteen pieces, iu their new uniforms, on the platform and played i selection from 'Bohemian Girl' which was received with tremendous ap plause. "The hand shows remarkable im provement of late, and the suits made a handsome appearance. The band re sponded to an encore, giving 'Sweet Summer Days,' with its attractive clarinet solo, which was artistically played l>y Henry Dunn, formerly of the regimental hand at Fort Crook." I glanced at this copy and the secret of so many of my own failures at home stood revealed. Not one in a thousand cared for those fourteen band men, even "in their new uniforms," at that stage of the proceedings. They want ed to be spared that wait at the be ginning. They wanted the debaters brought on nt once, and tho sparks from their clashing forensic swords to brighten the report at the very outset. After it was all over plenty of space could he found at the tail end of the report for the people on the stand who ought to he mentioned and for the baud that played selections from "Bo hemian Girl" and made such a brave nppearnnce iu new uniforms.—Michi gan Bulletin. Tho Imitative lilackhirtt, A blackbird of Upton Village, Berk shire, has given evidence of a quality supposed to belong only to tho caged and trained one—the faculty of imita tion of other songs and sounds than its own, and as such an accomplishment must be of interest to the naturalist, perhaps tho Spectator would not think its narrative unworthy of its pages. A blackbird native of the place has sur prised us lately by adding to his song, and with much apparent self-saUsfae t'on, four notes from the song, "Mer rily Danced the Quaker's Wife," al ways the same and broken off abrupt ly, and this copied from a captive par akeet in a neighbor's garden, hung out side for its health and pleasure, and trained in its own art of Imitation and constantly exercising its acquisition, but renouncing it immediately upon perception of the theft. The special Interest in this is that It is voluntary acquisition; no training, no teaching, no capture, no dark cage, but a wild blackbird following its own pleasure, and suggesting faculty In the bird be yond what has been attributed to it, and of necessity interesting to tho nat uralist or lover of birds, their songs and their ways.—The Spectator. Turquoise Deposits Discovered, It is believed that turquoise mines richer than heretofore discovered have been opened up at Cerillos, New Mex ico. It was at this point, it is believed, that the early Indians obtained the stones brought back by the early Span ish explorers, which now grace some of the crowns of Europe, it is stated that stones of beautiful tint as large as eggs have recently been taken out and polished without disclosing any flaws. These are said to be the largest stones ever found. Editors Less Qunrrelnomc. Newspaperdom finds that there Is less of the acrimonious spirit shown between editors and newspapers I ban formerly. Bitter invectives against rivals are now seen In print only in rare instances. The public cares noth ing for newspaper family quarrels, and the editors know it and confine their efforts to gathering and dissem inating news and good reading matter. •Sho's" Good Points. A pretty girl, with a decided air of being aware of her charms, stood in front of the lion's cage out at the Zoo Sunday afternoon, says the Washing ton Post. Two young men were near her, and her elaborate unconscious ness of their presence betrayed the fact that she knew they were looking a her. "Pretty, isn't she?" said one young man in a low voice. "She's a beauty," said the other, en thusiastically. The pretty girl's checks turned a trifle pinker, but she went on talking elegantly to the elderly man with her. "Beautiful head to draw," comment ed the first young man. "Look at the way she holds it." "Uh, hum," assented the other; "that shoulder's beautiful." The pretty girl turned pinker still, and looked more pronouncedly uncon scious than ever. "Look at those muscles," said the first young man. "Look at the muscles in that leg. You can fairly count 'em." And the pretty girl turned very red indeed as it dawned upon her that the two admiring young men were dis cussing the lioness in the cage. Poland Advances in Manufactures. The great product of Poland is at present textiles of cotton and wool. The growth of the city of Lodz (pro nounced as though spelled Lootch). a manufacturing center, four or five hours' ride from Warsaw, is really won derful, and quite American in its ra pidity and present proportions. In 1835 Lodz was a small, dirty village of 10,- 000 inhabitants. To-day it is one of the busiest cities in Europe, with a popula tion of 450.000 and a rank among the first as a manufacturing center. Lodz makes cotton, wool and chemicals, but particularly cotton and cotton fabrics. It is known as the Manchester of Rus sia.—Russian Correspondence in New York Post.

C. Lasher, Jr., a well-known woman of West port, N. Y., is one of the most interesting on record. It is an actual fact that head aches caused her head to split. 44 For thirteen years," she says, 44 1 suffered from terrible headaches night and day, until the bones of my skull opened so that the doctor could lay his thumb right into the opening on to my brain. Two doctors attended me and claimed that I was on the verge of insanity. I was under their care for nine years, but got no relief. Then I tried Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and inside of a year the bones of my head had taken their natural shape again." That Mrs. Lasher's statements are true is vouched for by reliable men of I Westport, and by a Justice of the Peace there. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy cured Mrs. Lasher when all other remedies failed, and it cures thousands of suffering women every year. If your head aches, if you cannot sleep and are weak and nervous, remember that this great curative agent, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, will make you well and strong. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is a physician's prescription, formulated from a discovery after years of investiga tion and experiment.
