He had seen in his youth the castle, as it was called?wooden castle, since torn down?of Lord Dex? ter, at Newbuiyport, Mass., and had heard the story of this man's life, and seen some of his letters. He was speaking of the knack of ac? quiring wealth, and he used the same word this paper has often used in this connection, calling it "a gift." And he instanced the case of tb is New buryport oddity. He was the son of a ship owner, a witless fellow, or not more than half-witted. His father, dying without a will, left him an estate that was large for those days?$100, 000. And the neighbors all said, "Now that property will be squander? ed," for Lord Timothy, beside having no, or few, brains, had no experience in business. But when he died the estate was worth $375,000. No un? profitable servant, he. One of his ventures has often been told?that of the shipment of warming pans to Cuba. He had a ship in port, destined for Cuba, from where it was to bring back sugar and molasses, to be converted subsequently into the rum of Medford, celebrated in those days possibly more than now. Lord Dexter, meeting an acquaintance on the Btreet one day, asked what he should ship to Cuba, and the acquain? tance answered in way of jibe: "Warming pans." So this foolish lord bought up the warming pans of New England, with their long handles and bright copper bodies, with lids securely fastened, cornering the mar? ket. The captain was in a rage at this witless man. Cuba was as promising a market for warming pans as Iceland for ice. But he took his cargo and sailed over the salt seas to the tropical island. And lo, when he landed, the Cuban who came on board said, exam? ining the long handles and the pans: "These are the finest sugar scoops I ever saw; but what did the fool want to put on covers for?" - Then the cap? tain, loyal man that he was, knocked off the rivets that held the covers in place and sold the cargo at a great profit, all of which went to the man they said would be the unprofitable servant.' So Lord Dexter once sent a cargo of millinery to Iceland, and again the blind goddess smiled on him, and the fair Icelandic maidens and the homely Icelandic women (bought his bonnets and .his laces and all his other fripper? ies and once more did the foolish man add to his great and increasing store. Perhaps the man was made rich in spite of himself. But he seems to have had sense enough to keep his money after it had come to him?and any rich man will tell you that re? quires larger ability, gift, than to make it. Then our friend, being in a reminis? cent mood, told the story of Stratton, of Cripple Creek. "Many is the time," he said, "that I have built my campfire^by that ledge and never thought of gold." But Stratton, a poor old carpenter, fifty years and more of age, worn out wkh fruitless prospecting, said one day: "I am go? ing to try the ledge." ?He admitted last month that in four months of this year he had taken out $500,000 clear. He owns 110 acres, and an offer of $7,000,000 made for the property has been refused. "What do I want to sell it for?" Stratton asked. It is all there; it cannot run away or be stolen, and if I want money I have only to dig for it." His mine, with six shafts, equipped with the best machinery, capable of working to the 2,000 foot level, lighted by electricity, has so much more than paid its way that a mining engineer thought from wltat was in sight that $25,000,000 would be a fair gambling price to pay for it. But, though Stratton, in the course of ten or fifteen years, may be the richest man in the land, they Bay he is not as happy a3 in the days when he was sawing with his saw and plan? ing with bis plane. He used to have a good appetite.- Now he has dyspep? sia. He is surrounded by meu and women whom he does not trust and lawsuits are troubling him. Was it a gift, or was it luck, that brought riches to him??Cincinnati Commercial- Gazette. Is It Progress ? A pessimistic writer in The Florida Citizen contrasts our present conven? iences and improvements with those of a century ago end says: "But it would seem as if' most, if not all, of our progress has been made in material things.' People do not think any better than they did when there were so few household comforts and conveniences. They have not approached to higher wisdom. We have fewer great men. There is less sentiment and less regard for author? ity. There are more gorgeous marri? ages, but the number of scandalous divorces has increased more than a hundred fold. The family tie has lessened till it is generally ready to drop apart for the slightest cause. No one is rash enough to express the opinion that an advance in honor has occurred. No one thinks that there has been an increase in honesty and integrity. Few will assume that more modesty appears among women, more moral courage among men or more obedience among children. A recent Writer on criminology declares that piracy on the sea and brigandage on the land have disappeared simply be? cause the occupations cannot now be carried on with any reasonable degree of safety. If the police were removed from the streets of any of our large citieB he believes that more pedestri? ans would be robbed and murdered in them than if they were to wander among the savages in the Soudan. As streets are patrolled by day and by night highway robbery has become dangerous. Persons, therefore, resort to methods of securing money and valuables that are less dangerous. They invent methods of cheating and defrauding that are not easily detected and are rarely punished if they are discovered. The crimes that were once o*?' ?nded are now close-hand? ed. The b d robber has regenerated iuto the cowardly sneak or the adroit swindler." We are not willing to admit this writer's claim that most, if not all, of our progress has been made in mater? ial things. Perhaps people do not think any better than they did in the olden days, but more of them have learned how to think We do not be? lieve that we have fewer great men. On the contrary we have' so many that they do not loom up as they did when there were only a few. When you test the people you will find that honesty, modesty, moral courage and sentiment are still positive factors of our existence and they are as highly prized as they ever were. In this age the newspapers give prominence to immorality and crime, and the virtues and good deeds of mankind attract less attention. But our churches are multiplying, our missions are better supported than ever, our rich men are building col? leges, ? libraries and hospitals, our prison system is more humane, the poor and afflicted are better cared for and education is within the reach of the poorest. The human heart is just as full of sentiment as it ever was. When the right man talks to the people in the right way he will move them to gener? ous deeds and stir their hest emotions just as the great orators and preachers did in the good old times. We think that the world is progress? ing in every way. It is progressing morally, intellectually, spiritually and materially. Most men are brave and most women are modest. Of Course, there are people who are hopelessly bad. But they are no worse than peo? ple were a hundred years ago. They are shown up in the newspapers and naturally they are more conspicious than they were in former times when there was very little said about them in print. This is why they look so black. Progress has its dark side. It is not perfection, but still it is progress. ?Atlanta Constitution. Glimpse of Mexican Life. Miss Cora Trawick, after spending nearly a year in Mexico, has returned to Nashville, Tenn., and writes The World for Christ these glimpses into Mexican life : "The people arc seen at their best at the market, and it is a sight never to be forgotten. The building itself is of iron and stone, and is very large. Here they have everything, from dry goods and hats down to "dulces" (sweets), peanuts, flowers, pottery; in fact anything one might ask for, and every man or woman seems to be try? ing to make more noise than his neighbor. "All along the street leading off from the market are women, two and two, making shoes, which they sell for about twelve cents a pair. One wo? man cuts them out of oil cloth, and the other one sews them up. "A woman was buying a pair, and she sat down on the sidewalk to try on one of the shoes. It was too small, and about three other women were trying to help her get her foot into it. We laughed and passed on to the cathedral, the doors of which are al? ways open, that passers by may go in and pray. "In the interior is the most exqui? site stone carving, reaching from the floor to the lofty ceiling. The greater part of it is overlaid with gold, and the effect is bewildering. "The church contains great numbers of images, which, by the way, are kept dressed in new and late styles. One saint was dressed in mourning, or rather black, with a beautiful gauz7 veil over her head, reaching to her feet. She looked very mnch like the pictures in the 'Bon Ton,'and this one especially reminds me of a lady in Nashville. "A'big wax doll, beautifully dressed in white satin, with pearl beads, lace trimming, and wearing a white gauze veil, is called the 'Virgin,' and is kept in a glass case. When for any reason the priest removes itfiom the case the people flock there in crowds in order to touch her band or kiss her feet, or even touch her dress, that they may be cured of their diseases." All Meir Will he Dwarfs. There is a whole school of European scientists who believe that this world will "come to an end" as far as man? kind is concerned, at about the year 4000 A. D., by the human race degen-. erating until they finally disappear from the face of the globe. French. English and German statisticians ot this school have been studying the military and other records for proof of their unique theories, and, if their published accounts arc reliable, they have been surprisingly successful. The records used by both the Ger? man and the Frenchman extends back nearly 400 years. From these it is learned that the average height of continental Europeans in 1610 was 5 feet 9 inches. In 1790 they had de? generated until the average was only 5 feet 6 inches, and thirty years later, in 1820, it wa3 only 5 feet 5 inches. At the present time it is only 5 feet 3$ inches. It is an easy matter for expert statisticians to deduce from the above figures facts that will prove a regular and very rapid decline in hu? man staturc.: Figuring in an opposite direction it is shown that the men of 5,000 years ago were giants, whose average height was 16 feet and 9 inches. Coming down to our era it is shown that the average height of man was 9 feet, and that in the fifth cen? tury there were more men that were over 7 feet high than there were less than 6. But the most astonishing result of this scientific story of degeneration comes from the application of this law of gradual diminution to the future. It is shown that by the end of the year 3500 A. D.. the stature of the averag"e man will be reduced to 15 inches, and that within less than 500 years from that date, or say, about the year 4000, mankind will have ut? terly disappeared from the globe.? A Father's Hoax. A clergyman, a widower, recently created quite a sensation in his house? hold, which consisted of seven grown? up daughters. The reverend gentle? man was absent from home for a number of days in an adjoining county. The daughters had received a letter from their father, which stated that he had "marrie'd a widow with six children," and that he might be expected home at a certain time. The effect of the news was a great shock to the happy family. There was weeping and wailing and all man? ner of naughty thing said. The house was neglected, and when the day of arrival come, it was any thing but inviting At last the Rev. Mr. X came, but he was alone. He greeted his daughters as usual, and as he viewed the neglect? ed apartments, there was a merry twinkle in his eye. The daughters were nervous and evidently anxious. At last the elder mustered courage and asked: "Where is our mother?" "In heaven," said the good man. "But where is the widow with the six children whom you married ?" "Why, I married her to another man, my dears," he replied. His Dream Was Worth Millions. Elias Howe almost beggared him? self before he discovered where the eye of the needle of a sewing machine should be located. His original idea was to follow the model of the eye at the heel. It never occurred to him that it should be placed near the point, and he might have failed altogether if he had not dreamed he was building a sewing machine for a savage king in a strange country. Just as in his actual working experience, he was rather perplexed about the needle's eye. He thought the king gave him twenty four hours to complete a machine and make it sew. If not finished in that time, death was to be the punishment. Howe worked and worked and puzzled and puzzled, and finally gave it up. Then he thought he was taken out to be executed. He noticed that the warriors carried spears that were pierced near the head. Instantly came a solution of the difficulty, and while the inventor was begging for time he awoke. It was four o'clock in the morning. He jumped out of bed, ran to his workshop, and by nine o'clock a needle with an eye at the point had been rudely modeled. A Prayer For Rate, The part of the Occident in which the settlement of Hawville is located had been afflicted with a long and severe drouth. After the ablest at? tempts of the rainmakers had brought no relief, a special ^.ayer meeting was held at the Methodist Church, and a united appeal for rain was made to Providence. When the service had been going on for some time Col Handy Polk, an enterprising real estate agent, rose in his place, and with becoming humility began : "Our Heavenly Father, we are assembled here to-day to call Thy attention to the fact that we need rain, and need it mighty bad! It hain't a case of merely wantin' it, but we've jest nacherly got to have it or go stone broke ! Our business interests are prostrated, and town lots are bein' offered for half prices they would have brought six months ago, and going' beggin' at that. Our crops are burnt up, and if we don't git relief Boon half of the population will be forced to pull up stakes and go back East to their wives' people. And, in addition to the distress that a contin neration of this ycre drouth will bring to us, I beg to call Thy atten? tion to the injury it will inflict upon Thy cause and kingdom in this locali ty. Already many of the faint heart? ed have back slidden, and it is only a question of time till sin and innickerty run rampant in our midst. Now I beg also to remind Thee that it is Col Handy Polk, the well-known real estate, loan and insurance agent, who is humbly askin' this favor of Thee, and that Thou canst depend upon it that the case stands presizely as I have stated it. And I hope Thou wilt give my humble petition Thy keerful attention, and grant us, before to-morrow night or by the day after to-morrow ,at the very latest, the rain we so badly need." It is to be re? corded that, within the space of twenty-four hours from that time, the rain began falling in torrents.?Neio York Tribune. Light Stables. The importance of having stables ventilated in accordance with correct principles of hygiene is generally ad? mitted. That the supply of fresh air should be ample is frequently insisted upon, but that the light should also be abundant is not to commonly re? cognized. Some stables are at mid? day <in a state of semi-darkness?a condition, to say the least, anything but conducive to the well-being of the horse. No animal enjoys the light of day more than he. In his wild state he frequents the open plain or moun? tain side, in the full light of the day. Wild horses are never found to inhabit igloomy forests or dark ravines. The horse is a child of light, and he should be treated accordingly in domestica? tion, if he is to be kept in perfect health and spirits, with the eyesight unimpaired. The frequent transition from a dark stable into full glare of day cannot fail to act prejudicially on his visual organs, and so also must almost permanent gloom and darkness. If we studied only his comfort, we would give him at all times a stable full of cheeful light as well as refresh? ing air. ? Dr. Julius Kosenstein, a San Francisco surgeon, is suing for six weeks attendance on Joseph McDon ough, the millionaire. Bosenstein charged $20 an hour for his time. His bill amounted to over $14,000, but he reduced it to $10,000. When the ad? ministrator of the estate refused to pay him Dr. Rosenstein restored his original bill and brought suit. Another doctor not long ago recovered $5,000 from John W. Mackay for the treat? ment of a simple flesh wound. Bueklens Arnica Halve.

Sept 11, !S95 11 3m Definition of Home. A prize was offered recently by London Tid Bits for the best answer to the question : ""What is Home?" Here are a few of the answers which were rcecived : The golden setting, in which the brightest jewel is "mother. A world of strife shut out, a world of love shut in. Home is the blossom of which heaven is the fruit. The only spot on earth where the faults and failings of alien humanity are hidden under the mantle of char? ity. The place where the great are sometimes small and the small often great. The father's kingdom, the chil? dren's paradise, the mother's world. The jewel casket, containing the most precious of all jewels?domes? tic happiness. Where you arc treated best and you grumble most. Home is the central telegraph of? fice of human love, into which run in? numerable wires of affection, many of which, though extending thousands of miles, are never disconnected from the one great terminus. The center of our affections, around which our heart's best wish? es twine. A little hollow scooped out of the windy hill of the world, where we can be shielded from its cares and an? noyances. ?
