it is the Pace that Kills. Every owner of a fine horse is aware of the fact that the utmost care must be taken of it in order to keep the an imal in prims condition for the work he has to do. He is most particular with regard to his feeding, grooming and exercising of it, and sees that it is carefully guarded against both heat and cold, so as to insure its perfect health and its ability to make a good record OD tba race traok. Then, too he knows that, although it is possible for his horse to inn or to trot a short distance in a very brief time, it would be its rain if the attempt were made ' to keep np that pace for a long dis tance, and so humanity and self-in terest alike, forbid him to make the experiment. * But, while a man be ?Jv stows all his care upon a dumb animal that can at best serve him only a few years, he too frequently forgets to ex ercise the same care, wisdom and moderation regarding himself, al ?hough it is Oven more necessary would he preserve the health of his mind and body down to old age. We think it pitiful to see a broken-down race horse, that has won such fame its . owner can neither resolve to kill it or . to sell it for common work, turned out to graze until death mercifully comes to end its sufferings, but is it not far inore pitiful to see', as we so frequent ly do, the premature decrepitude of men who have gone through life at such a pacer that they are broken in mind and body long before reaching the end of the race? We have many proverbs inculcating the doctrine that it is better to enjoy life while we may, and that we might as well "eat, drink and be merry/' since life is so brief; but most of them omit to mention that for some of us 4 there is "a hereafter," even in this j fife, when.""our pleasant vices are made instruments to scourge us," and when we must reap the harvest from ?he plentiful crop of "wild oats" we sowed in our spring time. But it is not always necessary for a man to be old and decrepit to come to a sense of the folly of Hiving at the top of his speed. Sometimes the realization of it comes to him in the midst of the ' race, when he feels how inadequate to satisfy are the pleasures for which he is paying so dear. We think of Ham let as a man in the early prime of life, and yet nothing could be more utterly sad than his exclamation: |p "Oh, God! God! How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable Seem to me all the uses of this world !" And still it is doubtful if ever those words Tell from the lips of a Booth or a Kean without finding an echo in the heart of more than one man in their immense audience; and not always of meit who had drained the cup of plea sure to the dregs, either. Sometimes the dissatisfaction is caused by the contrast, between their own mode of living and that of some friend, who has had a higher conception of pleas ure chan.the one they have set before themselves, and who is living au hon ored, useful and happy life, widely at variance with their own. Perhaps this friend has at one time or another ventured a word of remonstrance, or gentle warning, which, though appar ' ently unheeded at the moment, has left its impression upon their heart, and all the more influences them be cause the lips that uttered them are forever silenced. Unhappily, tempo rary pauses in the headlong course are but brief and infrequent, and ars fol lowed by wilder speed than ever, be cause of the desire to banish thought, , and because they feel that it is not worth while, or that it is now too late to make any change in a course so long pursued. Nor is it always in the sense we hav? been considering that a man may live too-fast, and so break down in health and mind long before old agc comes. The desire of pecuniary gain, or the love of fame, or the goadings of ambition, urge many a one forward at a speed far beyond that which he is able to sustain, and so exhaust his vi tal force long before the struggle is over. Even though the motives which impel a mac to overwork are perfectly . pure and commendable, he is in a great measure as guilty of suicide as though he had resorted to the expedi tious,, but hardly less certain, mode of killing himself with a bullet ia the in the brain. The circumstances arc very rare when one is justified in do ing more thap he can bear without im periling his life; and they are never justifiable when it is done for the ac quisition of pecuniary rewards above what is absolutely necessary for the maintenance of those dependent upon him. Many times one is urged on by the belief that he alone can accomplish some certain object, and ambition and pride in his work impel him to do everything relating to it himself, instead of entrusting to others the things they might easily do. It is a sad commentary on this foolish belief that, when the end comes suddenly before the work is done, another takes his place and fin ishes his task, and often the world forgets who it was that conceived the design and who made its ultimate suc cess possible in its laudations of the man who completed it. It is as though we should expend our praises on the workmen who laid the final stones on some grand cathedral, while ignori the architect who planned it, and t men who laid its solid foundatio several centuries ago. It may seem ungracious to speak women in connection with this sub j ec but truth compels the confession th not a few of them are living at a pa< that kills, though it may not alwa; be apparent to casual observers. It generally allowed that there are son few things which are especially de: to the heart of every true woman, s?t as the peace and purity of her hom her husband's honor, her own goc name, the affection and respect of h< friends and acquaintances, the fee inga with which her children will loo back to their childhood, and her infit enoe over them. But many a woma jeopards all these for the sake of bein thought gay, fashionable, "up-tc date," and, in order to win the plane its of those whose admiration is nc worth having and who does not hes tate to turn from her when the worl discovers she has gone too far; an who will then he among the very fin to cast stones at her, hoping to dc ceive the world into thinking that the were never among her friends and assc ciates. A woman may not go so fa as to draw upon herself this publi censare, and yet destroy forever th peace and happiness of her home b her conduct. She may even flatte herself that she can do many thing that are questionable in appearance because she is conscious that she ha really, done no wrong; bat it is wei for her io remember that her inno cence is only known to herself, whil circumstantial evidences are al against her, and that it is a woman* duty-at least, for the sake of others if not for her own-to "avoid even th? appearance of evil." Young girls a times get an idea that it makes then very attractive in the eyes of men whei they say and do things that are de scribed as "load" or "fast," or tba win them the reputation of beinj bright and witty; and. undoubtedly it does draw around them a number ol young cads who think it great fun tc sea how far they can enoourage a sill j girl to carry her recklessness. But sucl conduct never yet won for any girl thc affection of a young man whose love was worth having, and the memories it leaves will surely be a source ol humiliation to her in the. coming years.-Sunday News. . Boning A Bribe. A good story is told of General Lud low, of Havana, who was at one time in charge of contracts for some gov erment work: , A Irishman who had been doing goverment work for some years paid a visit to Ludlow and introduced him self, slyly laying down on his card a crisp fifty-dollar bill. It was his way of "feeling of" a new man. If Lud low had ignored the performance ab solutely and the bill had remained ly ing on the table when the contractor went out, the latter would have as sumed that he had found a kindly critic for his work; or, had the test drawn forth a violent rating and perhaps a blow or kick, he would have tried to laugh the whole matter off, hut would have been careful not to repeat the experiment. Ludlow, however, neither affected to ignore the incident nor lost his temper over it. On the contrary, he looked at the card and remarked pleas antly, "So you are Mr. Patrick Flah erty?" /'That is my name, sor." answered the visitor. "And you have called to see me about getting some contract work for the government?" "I have, sor." "Well, Mr. Flaherty," said Ludlow, we can talk more freely over a cigar. Do you smoke?" He drew from his pocket two cigars, handed one to the contractor, and put the other between his own lips. Then looking around on his table as if for a match and finding none, he coolly took the fifty-dollar note, twisted it into a lighter, set it aflame from the open grate fire, lighted his own cigar, and, without changing countenance, passed the stump of the burning bill over to the contractor, whose appetite for tobacco seemed to have experienced a sudden check. The conversation did not last long, the contractor went away with a new idea in his head, if not about contracts, at least about Ludlow.-Youth's Companion. E. E.

We do not know how Joseph's coat was made, but as the phrase used means also "a beautiful garment," "a coat coming to the feet and hands," it is probable that it was woven. The texture of the raiment of fine linen that Pharaoh put upon him, when he made him overlord of Egypt, was not essentially different from what we wear to-day, so scholars discovered when the greatest of the Pharaohs was unwound from his grave clothes. In the tombs of the kings the rain less air of upper Egypt has preserved for us pictures of looms used three thousand years ago. There are the vertical chain, the cross rous, and the comb to keep the texture even, just as we know them to-day. We read of the "weaver's shuttle" in Job, and of the "weaver's beam" in Samuel, and we are told that Delilah wove the seven locks of Samson's head into her web, and fastened it with her weaving pin. The weaver's art must have been well understood when the tabernacle was furnished in the wastes of Sinai. "Ten curtains of fine twined linen, blue and purple and scarlet, with cherubim of cunning ^vork, shalt thou make." Plainly the "cunning work" was either woven in the fabric or em broidered upon it. There was a veil before the ark of testimony "of blue, scarlet, and fine twined linen, and with cherubim was it also made." According to Pliny the Phrygians invented embroidering with the needle; Babylon was famous for its embroid eries in many colors, and Alexandria invented weaving in many colors. Gaul, he says, "invented checked fabrics." Josephus tells us that Sol omon's temple had curtains and veils embroidered with flowers. The veils and curtains of the temple, as rebuilt under Zerubbabel, were considered valuable prizes by Antiochus, the illustrious. When Herod the Great rebuilt the temple he hung before the sacred place a Babylonian ta; "^try. "on which/' says Josephus, "all that is mystical in the heavens was em broidered, save the twelve signs." The work was done in "blue, fine twined linen (white), scarlet, and pur ple." We get a glimpse of the Persian weaver's work in the book of Esther. The palace of Abasuerus'is described as having hangings of white, green, and blue, fastened to silver rings by cords of fine linen and purple. Embroideries and tapestries were articles of cammercc. In Ezekiel we read of fine linen with embroidery "from Egypt." So also in Proverbs: "I have decked my couch with tapestry and fine linen from Egypt." Probably all the fabrics of Egypt were made of cotton or flax, but the Hebrews early learned to spin wool, as did also the Greeks. "She seeketh wool and flax," says Solomon of the virtuous woman, "she layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff." The goddess of the "upper air," of wisdom, and the protector of civic liberty, Athene, taught the daughters of earth to spin, weave, and embroider, so the Greeks believed, and there is something very poetic and charro:og in the fancy that the most mighty daughter of Zeus was the inventor and teacher of such homely arts. Picture after picture is given us by Homer of women at tue loom or spinning. "My mother," says NauBicaa to Ulysses, "sits by the hearth in the beam of the fire turning the sea purple threads of wool, and her handmaids sit behind her." Before the fall of Troy, the (Jivine Helen sat in her palace weaving "an ample web," a "double mantle resplendent,'' and on it worked "the many labors of thc horse-taming Trojans and the brazen mailed Greeks." The news of her widowhood found Andromache stamp ing before her loom, and the ransom of Hector's body was paid in part by woven fabrics, "beautiful mantles, single cloaks, tapestried rugs, and tunics." The story of Penelope's web is immortal. Never while the world stands will be forgotten that "canvas delicate and vast," "the shroud for the hero Laertes," woven each day. only to be undone at night. Every four years the peplos of Athene, renewed by the hands of high-born virgins, was carried in procession at the festival of Pan athen tea, and it is this procession, cut in the marble of the frieze of the Parthenon, that has been the despair and delight of artists for centuries. There was something sacred in woven fabrics, the Greeks believed, and none but gods might step upon them. "A mortal trample on purple, richly embroidered !" exclaims the hero Agamemnon on h?s return from Troy, when Clytemnestra spread car pets before him. "Honor me as a man, not as a god. It were a shame to soil, to trample under foot such treasures, such tissues bought at a great price." Weavers and embroiderers up to our own day have disputed the decoration of palaces and temples with sculptors and painters, and silk and threads of gold and silver now add their laster to the humbler flax, wool, and cotton. But the most precious products of the loom are, after all. the ingrain carpet, which shuts out the cold from the home of tht humble, and the cheap web of cotton which makes what was once the luxury of princes the every day comfort of the laborer.-For ward'. So Changes in Climate. This subject is of extreme interest, and merits a most thorough stucy. We find the "early" and the "latter" rain to-day in Palestine precisely as de scribed 3,500 years ago. "Jordan overflows all its banks" in February to-day exactly as it did in Joshua's time, thirty-three centuries ago. Plants taken from mummy cases in Egypt, which must have been gather ed more than 5,000 years since, are practically the same size and are of the same appearance as those growing to-day. Records of vintages in France for over 700 years show practically the same dates as to-day. Actual ob servations of rainfall for over 200 years in France show no change. Ob servations of temperature for almost 20 years at St. Petersburg show no change appreciably to us, though, of course, the earliest observations were extremely crude and somewhat unre liable. Facts of this kind might bc adduced to fill a small volume. On the other hand, we have records of the extraordinary cold weather in ancient times. One winter the light wine in France froze. Another winter the River Po froze over so as to bear teams (an unheard-of phenomenon to-day). In this journal for June it is stated that "Parnassus and Socrate, now free from snow, were covered with it in classic antiquity." Also, "the name Greenland, which strikes us as so sin gularly inappropriate, was not inap plicable at the time it was named, in the Fourteenth Century." It is entirely propable that descrip tions of the cold in ancient times were much exaggerated. Parnassus and Socrate have snow at times, and in earlier days, when protection against the cold snow was much less than now a little snow would go a long way. The early voyagers from Iceland, more than 1,000 years ago, leaving aland of almost perpetual ice and snow, and reaching a land in the summer with its beautiful green color, to their unac customed eyes would very naturally give the name of Greenland to it. At the summer time, it is said that Greenland presents a most beautiful green near the Danish settlements to this day. Our oldest inhabitants, who have been wont to describe thc terrible cold and deep snows of their boyhood days as incomparably greater than anything which does or can oc cur to-day, completely lost their reck oning the last winter when reading of a ship that had sunk in New York harbor by the weight of the ice upon, it; also, that Washington had had thirty-four inches of snow on the lev el, and the lowest temperature ever noted in that fair city. I am sure a* careful study will show no apprecia ble change in the climate of this earth since the early historic times. Of course, nothing here adduced touches climitic changes in glacial times orin prehistoric times, which changes have been established beyond question.

A collie, Hoger, who belonged to a Kentucky man, has given remarka ble proof of understanding conversa tion. His master and his guests were sitting on thc veranda after the mid day dinner and Roger lay stretched out upon thc lawn nearby. One of the visitors commented upon the dog's good points, his ?ne markings and other evidences of breeding. "And he is as clever as he is hand some," said his master. "Every even ing he goes to the pasture and brings up the cows. He never needs any one to remind him of his duty and he nev er neglects it." During this eulogy Roger lay appa rently sound asleep. No one paid any further attention to him and the con versation turned upoD other subjects. Suddenly a commotion was heard, the jingling of a bell, a joyous barking, and there, before the gate, stood the whole herd of Alderneys, roused from their noon siesta and driven home at that unwonted hour by the over-zeal ous Roger, thirsting for still greater praise. But alas for the vanity of canine expectation! "What do you mean?" his master shouted, knowing that the dog must he roundly rebuked. "You rascal! Take those cows back to the pasture instantly. What do you mean by bringing them up at this time of the day?" I The light died out of Rogers danc ing eyes; tail and ears dropped in mor tification. Dazed and as much aston ished as the cows could be, he round ed up the herd, they faced about and went solemnly down the lane again and back to the pasture, the too-offi cious Roger timing his feet to the ding-dong, cling-clang of the leader's bell.- New York Sim. - It is curious to note that wood tar is prepared just as it was in the fourth century B.
