How It Would Affect Man's Weight or. the Celestial Bodies. If t. planet Mars be really Inhab Ited toe people who live there must be an exceedingly agile race. The av erage weight of a man is about 140 pounds. but the force of gravity on Mars is so much less than on the earth that the 140 pound man would weigh only fifty-three pounds if be were transported thither. With such light weight. and :til&l retaining the same strength, an individual would be able to run with the speed of an express train, go skipping over ten foot walls and do various other ex traordinary things. On the moon a man would be even lighter. But on the sun our 140 pounder would have hils troubles. Instead of being an airy individual he would weigh in the neighborhood of a ton and three-quarters. lie would prob ably have the greatest ditticulty in raising his hand. for that member would weigh about 300 pounds. According to scientinec computation. a man who on earth weighs 140 pounds would on the other celestial bodies weigh as follows: The moon. 23 pounds: Mars. M3 pounds; venus. 114 pounds: Mercury. 11) pounds: Neptune. 123 pounds: 'Uranus. 127 pounds: Saturn. 1tZ pounds: Jupiter. 371 pounds. an! the sun. 3.S71 pounds.-Chicago Tribune. A SAD STORY. The Misfortune That Came With a Terrible Tumble. Fowling is now very little practiced In the Shetland islands. although ma' - eggs are se-ured annually. %1any thrilling stories of fowling adventure: are told by the Shetlanders. A man who had undertaken to climb a certn in steep cliff was neither very exper. enced nor very brave. although he boasted of belng both. le pushed up ward, however, briskly without look lng behind urntil he had ;tot up about 154) feet. when he stopped to breathe. The pause was fatal to his self posses sion, and he called out in tones of ter ror, "Men, men. I am going-I am go ing" But he still held on for a llttle. and It was not till he had shrieked1 manyr times "I am going" that he didi fall headlong. His comrades, having thus been warned, moved the boat out of the way so that the poor fellow came sheer down Into the deep water. Mighty was the plunge, but at length he rose to the surface. when of course he was instantly caught hold of and dragged into the boat. After many gasps and much spluttering of se~a water from his mouth his only remark was: *"Eh. men, thss asad story. I have lost my snuffbox."-"Sketches and TalesI 'of Shetland." The Last Ditch.I When Willim, prince of Orange. afterward William I. of England.I was elected stadtholder of the United Netherlands In 1072 and found himself in the midst of war with England and France he was asked by the Duke of Buckngham whether he did not see ruin Impending over his country. "Nay," he answered. "There is one certain means by which I can be sure enough to see my country's ruin. I will die in the last ditch." And, reject ig all terms of peace, he checked the invasion of France by opening sluk-es and flooding every tract of land, drove them from Hlolland in 1074 and made honorable terms with England and finally after varying effort brought the war to a successful close by a treaty wIth France In 1078. Taken at His Word. The doctor was telling how he came to lose one of his best payingI patients. The man was a hypochon dia'., who was always Imagining that something terrible was about to hap pen to him, and the doctor, who was a great ,jollier, was kept busy trying Ito reason him out of his morbid con diton. "You have worried y, uirseIf until you are bordering on a nervous col iape" said the doctor to hIm one day. You shouldn't think about your symp toms all the time, but just attend to your affairs as if there was nothing the matter with you." "All right, doctor," replied the pa: tient. "I'll do as you say.
