? iibim ??c? Mother*. He knows little of human nature and little of the biography of the world's leading names, who does not accord an immense potency to the moulding iiilluence of a mother. It would be useless to institute comparisons between a mother's influence and the influence of other persons, or between a mother's influence and the influence of the same woman in oilier relations of life; but even the most self-distrusting mother, and the cynical critic, would find it impossible successfully to deny a fact 011 which , the ages have laiil such stress. No doubt the prenatal influence of a mother 011 her child is often very great. It was not a mere accident or coincidence that Walter Scott's mother was a great lover of poetry and painting; or that Byron's mother was a proud woman, ill-tempered and violent; or that Nero's mother was a murderess; or that Xopeleon's mother was a woman of prodigious energy ; or that Patrick Henry's mother was a distinguished talker; or that Lord Bacon's mother was remarkable for her superior mental gifts; or that Wesley's mother had executive ability enough to manage a state; or that Washington's mother was devout aud pure and true, and of the loftiest character. There must be something in an array ot facts of which these are only specimens, beside mere chance. When to the pre-natal in/luence there is added the after influence of instruction and association and example, which moves along in the same direction, and continues without check or abatement through all the years of special susceptibility to educating efforts, nothing short of the endless ages can reveal how .Innloiuo ami mnmoufnuc hoc lu?nn the action of a mother's life and personality on the life and personality of her child. Benjamin West used to say it was a kiss of his mother which made him a painter. While a mere lad he sketched in rough outline the face of his little sister as the lay in the cradle before him. The mother sawpromise in the work of the boy, and she bent down over him and kissed her approbation and her hope into his rosy cheek. Many a boy has gone boundingaway to his apprenticeship, or to his books, or to his lirst struggle in business, because the mother has had both the wisdom and the love to speak an encouraging word at the right time. Her words were at once benedictions and inspirations. The factors in society for which we have flip Ipntit. imp ;irp had mothers. The evil influences which we lind it hardest to counteract are the influences of bad mothers. All are familiar with the famous reply of Napoleon to the question; "What is the greatest need in the French nation?" But we cannot recall the answer too frequently, nor repeat it with too much emphasis, "Mothers." He meant, of course, good mothers, motherly mothers, faithful mothers, pure mothers, mothers who would take just pride in their sons and daughters, and do their best to train them in ways of industry and virtue and high worth. Is there anything any nation needs more? 19 there anything which, were a nation to be largely wanting in it, would sooner work the ruin of a people? On no account can fathers be relieved of responsibility; but when the mothers in any land cease to be wise and pure and true, civil order in that land is near to its overthrow. How much this nation owes to its mothers! What a difl'erent story there would have been to tell had the mothers of the Colonial period, when Massachusetts and Rhode Island and Connecticut and Virginia and Pennslyvania were in the form ative stage, not been the large-minded and self-sacrificing and brave women they were. How unlike what it would have been the record of the Revolutionary period, when it was as essential to the iude peudence and self-government of the people that there should be large souled and far-seeing and patriotic women to preside over the hearthstone and rule in the domestic circle, as that there should be daring and determined and libertyloving and splendidly devoted men to take their places in legislative halls and in camps, had these women been wanting. No author can fitly tell the story of American history without devoting ample space to the high spirit and eminent virtue of our American mothers. Sometime poultry raisers provids the best of feed and then fail to get eggs. One cause of this failure Is the lack of fresh water. Water enters largely into the composition of an egge Consequently unless the hens have a sufficient supply of it they can not lay. Paint brushes aud whitewash brushe can be made to last much longer if they are placed with the end hair end up, the hair separated and some varnish poured in. This will tighten the handle and prevent the hair from coming out. If bound with leather a liberal oiling will prevent the lime from burning it up. It is a waste of food to fatten to a point where the animal makes but a small daily gain. In fattening animals for market it should be done quickly, and the lot sent to market as soon as they cease to gain in proportion to the food consumed. Kverv dav after tlmt period increases the cost. It has been thoroughly demonstrated that a mule is superior to a horse for labor and endurance. They can be put to w6rk earlier and last longer than most horses. They require less feed and much less expensive diet than a horse; and freer from disease and seldom foundered or colicky. * Envy is blind, and knows nothing except to depreciate the excellencies of others. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love. If you do not wish for his kingdom, don't pray for it. i>ut if you do, you must do more than pray for it; you must work for it. A man's opinions may cause him to feel a large measure of personal security, but never justifies hini in declaring unsound and insecure all who fail to think and feel with him. God makes no man the judge of his brother. "Cling fast to the Hand that is lead" lng you, though it be iu darkness, though it be in deep waters?vou know whom you have believed. Yield not for a single moment to misgivings about future storms. In finite love, joined to infinite skill, shall pilot the way through every strait and temptation." "If we can't talk about our neighbors' faults, what are we to talk about?" remarked the proof reader, as he glanced at our article on gossip. "Talk about your own faults," a printer over the way answered, "and you'll soon get tired of talking?that is; if you tell the truth." J><> you see the point? ! LIT IIS If 1 jOn the Right Track. COHEN THE LEADER OF LOW PRICES WILL DO IT. We don't expect any man to buy here wljo can do better anywhere else, but he'll have a fruitless hunt. We put our whole heart Into clothes?buying and selling. We employ every talent, profit by experience, strive for every perfection, anil have sot the art down toja nicety. While some are shouting how cheap they've got, we want to tell you how tino we've got. Anybody can sell ^cheap clothcs?there's no knack aiinui i,v'*X1' got suits as low as but at ??..r>0. slO, SM to >15 andS'20 is where expertness counts, cleverness is' taxed, where competition is declared out of the race, where its "neck and neck" with the best of custom tailoring. And just think of what a saving it is. A little more than !? asked for the cheap truck, but a great deal less than the tailors demand?about half. What worth have words when everybody claims the largest stock ? What weight have published prices unless you can prove the values? You've got a standing invitation to look us over and see if we are not showing three times the variety ol suits that is to be 'ouud any where else. You are assured satisfaction in every purchase, not the "as goodas-kind," but. a guarantee that there can be no better made. There's no chance of our not being able to suit you. Such an immense line must hold every bod's size and everybody's style. Some of the ."back clothiers" advertise clothing in any shape as the fashionable sort, but their idea is like their clothes ?ancient. The styles this season are of the moderate sort in length, both cutaways and sacks. This way for the correct style at lowest prices that can be made for the best clothes.

The tallest chimney was built at Port Pandas, Glasgow, Scotland, 1857 i.. 1 D-d 1.^ r? it! tll<> II) lOJi', IUI A' n/??iioguu. aw I.J kiiv v? highest chimney in the world (454 feet,) and one of the loftiest masonry s.c structures in existence. In Europe there are only two church steeples that exceed this structure in height?namely, that of the Cologne Cathedral (510 feet,) and that of the Strasburg Cathe- ^ dral (4GS feet). The great pyramid of m (Jizeh was orginallv 4S0 feet, although cc not so high at present. The United f0 Stales out-tops them all with its Washington monument, -">0 feet high, and the tower of tiie Philadelphia public buildings, which is 537 feet high. The Eillel tower at Paris, France, ^ surpasses all other terrestrial metal pf structures, with its altitude of nearly, ad 1,000 feet. The "great tower" for te London, England, in course of construction from designs of Henry Davey, ! ( '. E., will out-top all metal structures, ~ being built of steel, and its extreme ? height will be 1,2-50 feet when fin- J[ ished. The highest and most remarkeble metal chimney in the world is erected at the imperial foundry at Halsbrucke, near Freiberg, in Saxony. The height t of the structure is 452.6 feet; it is 15. ?? 74 feet in internal diameter, and is sit-, re uated on the right bank of the Mulde, 0Ij at an elevation of 219 feet above that e' of the foundry works, so that its total _ height above the sea is no less than 711.15 feet. The works are situated j T on the left bank of the river, and the'" furnace gases are conveyed across the j fry nliimnoxr nil o hriflnro 1 T ,1,Ci l" ",v "" ? >" '"ftx ] " through a pipe 3,227m feet in length. j The highest ottice building in the L world is the Manhattan Life Insurance1 Company's of New York City. Its I height above the sidewalk is ."47 feet, j and its foundations go down 53 feet! below the same, being 20 feet below tidewater level, making a total of 400 pa feet. The foundations consist of 15! masonry piers, and are carried by the I ?ame number of steel caissons. The 1 latter were sunk to bed-rock by the 01 pneumatic process. The cantilever 10J system was used for the foundation. <*J2> ] Do Y011 Know. jia Do you know that every cruelty in- be fi fated on an animal in killincr or iust an before death poisons to a greater or less extent its meat? th Do you know tbat every cruelty in- to dieted upon a cow poisons to a greater or less extent its milk ? ice Do you know tbat fish killed as soon frr ;is taken from the water by a blow on j J the back of the head will keep longer th und be better than those permitted to < ilie slowly? ^ Do you know that birds destroy millions of bugs, mosquitoes and harmful insects, that without the birds we could not live on the earth, and that . every little insect-eating bird you may I kill and every egg you may take trom L its nest means one less bird to destroy insects? g?
