the judges were the following : Mowiog machises, horse rakes and harrows\u2014 Sleeper & Akburst and J L 'f'bornton, Costicook.Sugar evaporators sud arches\u2014C A Kennedy, Coaticook, and William Rugg, Compton, for Grimms & Co., Montreal.All were well worthy of prizes.Beautiful epecimens of Turkish Embroidery exhibited hy Rev.Chas, H Brooks of Way's Mills, received honoiahle mention by the judges on Domestic manufactures.All the exhibits in the Department for Domestic manufactures, while wade by the ladies, are, under the present syslem, pecessarily entered in the name of their husbands or fathers to save the extra membership fee.It is by no means fair to deny the ladies the honor or credit merited by their skill and patience.There ought to be some arrangement made to allow the wives and daughters of membars the privilege of using their own names when making entries in this department.Even the names of the winners of special prizes for Lady Drivers appeared on the society's books in the masculine, and the reporters prefixed **Mrs.\u201d at the risk of an error.Concerning the fair there is a good deal of indifference displayed by some farmers and others.This ie not right.Everybody io the County wbo is at all interested in Agriculture, (aod who ie not?) ought to feel a personal iotesestin the success of the fair.We believe the Society is the oldest of its kind in the Townebips and it onght to bave the best exbibition.There is no reason why it cannot if the people will only do their duty.Money paid iu premiums remains in the county.\u2018The better the Fair, the better the farmer.Another earthquake has occurred in Sicily.A vew hot spring bas been discovered in Yellowstone Park.Forest fires are raging near Debe- que, Col., and much damage is being done.Tue

realizing that to bus wide guidance is due whatever success has been attained.Resolved\u2014That this Couvention deplore the lack of any suitable place of entertainment for the Beebe Plain quarry workmen when usemployed.2.Believing that a reading room containing games and a cheerful place for social converse, would counteract the attractions of the ea- loon, .\u2019 Resolved\u2014That it be recommended to the Plan of Work Commitiee that a reading room be opened near the Beebe Plain quarry for the workmen, that they be not compelled to frequent the bar-rooms for diversion.8.That whereas the use of opium in ite various forms as an intoxicant is increasing, that doctors and\u2018 druggists be urged to warn their patients in regard to the nature of opiam and other intoxicants when nsed

to religious life.That as such its observance ought to be zealously protected and eafe guarded by all Christian peoples, Resolved \u2014Thst each Union request their pastors lo preach sa an- nus]

use of it for Lwo days.Drag Sisters : Tbe minutes of the Convention as prepared for The Guide, having just reached me, I am sending them for publication next week, baviog taken the liberty of curtailing them slightly.\u2018The redort I think 18 very se- curate.I notice one omission, viz.the invilation hy the Cuaticook ladies for a \u2018September Conference\u201d to be held in their pleasant Town, at which all members sod officers who can attend will be welcomed.At this mest- ing (or before) all unpaid dues must be banded in so as to be ready for the sdvance payment at the Cooven- tion of the Province, to be held Oct.2-4.At this meeting the Gounty Secretary will submit Lhe report to be sant lo the Provincial for publication in the next Annual Report.-The various local committees on the new plan of work should also report proceedings sad consalt as to best methods.Do not let our effective plans become uscless because they are never acted upon, but let us endear- or to carry them out as far as possible, or else let 5e be honest with ourselves and with each other snd make no more plans.Noone, parbaps, realize the hindrances or feel mors unable to properly dincharge the responsibilities of oar great work than does your secretary at this time.Never before has it seemed an effort to think and plan in the intergat of the W.C.T.U.work, but as daty, not pleasure, is the worker's watofwôrd, aod as our enemy, the liquor traffic, Is still on the tèrone, it would seems that this is no time or place to call a \u2018\u201c\u201cbait.\u201d\u201d Perbaps these words, of warning do not apply to any but the one who writes them.One other matter was omitted in the minutes, perhaps bocause not defiuitely settled, bat if I remem- | ba right we had à partial

neighhoring ertilements destroying everything in the way of cattle, borses and some places bumen lives.Many fleeing before the approaching fan.es have been overtaken and destroyed.The loss of life is not exactly known, but is variouely estimsted from 200 to 500.St Paul, Sept.1.\u2014Ooly the horrors which accompanied the historic Chicago fire oan be cited in comparison wilh (be (errible scenes and experiences yesterday in the flame-swept pine regions of Pine, Kennebec and Carlton counties of Minnesota, and Burpett county, Wis.At least four hundred settlers\u2019 families and others were burned 10 death or suffocated before the flames reached them, and the desth list may rise anotber bundred or more.Tbe people of Hinckley, whieh was a prosperous town in Pine counly, sixiy-seven miles southwest of Daluth, are now dead or howelcss and destitute.At a conservstive es- limate two hundred and fifty men, women and children of this doomed town were unable to escape from the werciless swiflly advancing ames.They fell on the railroad tracks or on the old territorial road either to he cremated or die the more mereiful death of suffocation by the clouds of dense smoke and heal-laden atmos- pbere.The number of corpses already reeovered from the blackened waste at and around Hiockley is 150, the majority being women and children who had nut the strength to fight the destroyer or escape by fleeing ton place of safely.So far as can be learned at this time from the devastated district (Le following towns have been destroyed and the following are dead in nv .bers: Hiackley,

fires raging iv the lumber states, is now ope vast ares of ashes and cinders with here and there an oasis in the desert of devastation in the form of a balf dried lake, a standing farm building or a clamp of timber.The bodies of the known and uuknown dead, which dot the healed aod black expanse, give the scene the appearance of a battlefield.Judge Netbaway, one of a party who went to Hinckley to-night, said that there were 141 bodies in cuskels sod that with those found to-night there are 204 altogether.The Old Home.Ay thoughts return to the old, old home Where in ctildbood I oft did roam, Dear to wy heart, that blessed spot, So dear it ne'er will he forgot, 1 see it oft in midnight dreams, The running brooks and sbady trees, The old school-house that stood pear by, The graveyard where the loved ones lie.How lovely the old home scems, how drear, For only the mother and grandson are bere, Where once so many footsteps tread, All but one are numbered with the dead.Yes, vacant indeed is the old arm chair \u2018The loved ane is gone who often sat there, We listen in vain for a voice stili.Death again hath entered the door, Where 80 oft he had been before, And borne the father from earth away, To dwell in realms of endless day.He has gone to a bome so bright and fair, Three loving children will greet him that is there, No more will that form be racked with pain, Our loss ie his eternal gain.Irecall my thoughts from the old howe agaia, Though the teardrops come like the falling rain, Why the chain was broken we cannot tell, Let us strive in that better land to dwell, If sickoess bere Lath been our lot, By Him we know we are ne'er forgot, 1\u20ac we trust the never failing friend, He will be with us to the end.Has He not said my \u201cchild fear not,\u201d All eartbly troubles will be forgot ; That land where all is bright and fair No puia vor sorrow can enter 1here.And though our pathway bere is alone We may meet around the great white throne, Yes, meet at the common mercy seat, And quel st our Heavenly Father's eet.Then when we reach the otlier shore, Where partioge are to be no more, - When we meet our loved ones face to face, And clasp them in a fond embrace, \u2018Thea shall we know \"twas for the best, Our sufferings here, now peifect rest, Aud in our Father's loving care, Will dwell with him forever there.} C.H.B.Tbe walady from which the Count

the history of light harness racing snd one that crowns him king of the turf.Alix had set the crowd of 6000 wild with enthusiasm when she finished her record of 2.05}.At 4 30 the pacer was brought out for the etart, with Ed.Geers up.He had previously been well worked out by Geers, snd when he came to the post was fit for the effort of his life.After going in sa trial spurt Geers took Robert J.up the stretch, where a swift running mate in barness was ready to pace him.All was ready, and Geers started down to the post.He came at n tremendous clip and nodded the word.Starter Walker said: **Go,\u201d and then Robert J.shot away at a pace that troubled his nace to pattern.His movement was perfect.anil be was going sta worli- beating gait.The quarter was reached in 30%, and the great horse was moving along like a machine.Not a skip or a break did he make as he sped along (be back stretch to the half, passing it in 1.01}.Around the turn he went with a mighty stride, keeping well away from his wate, and never losing an inch of bis pare.The three-quarters wae turned in 1.333, and Robert J.came into the Lome stretch.The peerless pacer came to the post at a pace that was simply astonishing.There was not a fault in his motion.His feet ewung and beal with the time of a machine, and he spurned the turf from under him with speed and strength that surpassed any other effort of the mile.The wire was reached and Robert J.gave the world a new record and achieved a feat that no other horse has ever done.He bus made a mile in better than 2.4 and Nancy Hanks, Flying Jib and Mascot were deprived of their laurals.\u2018The time was announced and for the fisst time in the world 2.033 was hung out.As Ed.Geers drove back with the greatest pacer in the world, three cheers were proposed for Robert J.and they were given with a will.Three more and a tiger were accorded Geers.Hamilton's four-year-old Fantasy, with a record of 2.074, was also sent for a new mark driven by Geers.She made the circuit in 2.07 flat, the fastest mile ever trotted by a four-year-old mare and, barring Directum\u2019s 2.05} mark, the fastest ever given by any four-year-old.>- Literary Notes.\u2018The ideal magazine prints not only timely articles on events and places but stories of the right length to read aloud by the evening lamp.The September Harper's contains ** A New England Prophet,\u201d the story of an Adventist alarm, by Mary E.Wil.kios ; \u201cTbe General's Bluff,\u201d founded on a frontier campaign of General Crook, hv Owen Wister; *\u2018The Tug of War,\u201d a tale of English wen and women in Greece ; chapters of \u201cTae Golden House,\u201d Charles Dudley Warner's novel of New York society, and the first of a two-part story of Narragansett Pier by Brander Matthews.The amount of light that Harper's Weekly was able to throw wpon the remote and little-known country of Kotca, (be instant that public attention was directed to it, way be taken as an indication of the almost boundless resources of the paper, and its capacity to deal promptly and comprehensively with every occurrence of interest to the public.Harper's Bozar is presenting a great variety of fascinating styles for tie early autumn, illustrated by San- daz and Clapuie, the famous Parisian artists, and selected from Worth's most distinctive creations.These autumn toileties for out door and io- door uceasions surpass anything previously shown in a fasbion journal.\u2018The September issues will be enriched by elcgant gowns and bats for walking and driving, and by beautiful calling costumes.A brilliant novelette by M.McClelland, \u201cSt.Jobn\u2019s Wooing,\u201d will run through several numbers.\u2018The scene of this story is in the far South, and it is intensely

probably exceed that at Indiano- ls.Among (be bodies that have been identified are: Miss Mattie Edwards, Mrs.Joseph Hatch, child of Mr.Maley aod two Mexicans.Yesterday more complete reports of the

one, have shown very plainly that they do vol want reciprocity, and will only let Canada have it on their own terms.Their attitude may vol be an agreeable one toCanada, but it seems to meet with the approval of the United States citizens.Popular feeling on the subject is thus represented by the Watertown Daily Times so recently ar Monday last: \u2014 This country ie the most natural market for Canadian produce.They can reach it by short south lines of transportation.To seek other market compels transportation half across the continent.Tbey ought not to have this market except by becoming a part of (his nation, and the surest way of compelling anvexation is by keeping them out of the markel until they will iake the responsibilities of American citizenship along with the profits of it.Mr.Laurier talks about reciprocity as if be could get it for the asking.He had better undeceive himself, and say plainly what he is prepared to give for it.If reciprocity means the surrender of Canada\u2019s control over her omn fiscal policy and the \u2018gradual absorption of the Dominion in the \u201cgreat American nation,\u201d there are a great pumber of Canadians who would prefer to

but happily in the present instance the good people of this county can see through it, and will recognize it as a thin sugar coaling to cover a bitter pill, and will, without doubt, give honor where

safely deposited in their respective vaults than my father inclosedl his burial lot with & fine iron fence and set up a number of huge stone vases to contain hanging vines.To these he from time to time added such other ornaments and improvements as weresuggested by Rev.Nantucket Sperm, Captain Shrimp and others.These works occupied his days, and his nights were given to the study of the genealogy.Rev.Walter Mowbray created so favorable an impression that he was invited to become tho pastor of a church in the neighboring village of Weenipsit.As be had now become reimbued with the spirit of the true and earnest Christian soldier and teacher, he felt it his duty to makea full and humble confession to the bishop in authority and beg to be reinstated.In this my father and I lent our assistance, and the story of Jepson was made known to only a few discreet persons.In his preaching he is said to bo doing good work.The pictures he draws in his warnings to young men are 80 realistic that his hearers wonder how the good cld man is able to so faithfully portray the many evils of this wicked world, of none of which he can possibly have had any personal experience.the exploits of old Geoffroi with a mere My father's example caused many iro &1anos at his \u201cseveral victorious Land to | failings and handsome monuments to be erected by his neighbors, and the Pason- agessit cemetery is not only the pride of the village, but also is the model for all the neighboring villages, in nearly every one of which the work of improvement is in progress.Rev, Nantucket Sperm is always loud in his praise of my father for his inauguration of the good work which is now being carried on with so much pious enthusiasm, But that which gave my father the greatest pleasure was the following incident, which he was never tired of relating: One day as he was coming in from _ the cemetery be was stopped by a woman apparently about 90 years of age, who, cane in hand, stood before her cot- tuge.\u2018Mr.Johnson,\u201d said the venerable dame, \u2018I want tew thank you.I've been a-holdin back for years all I know heow jist tokeep from bein stuck deown out there among the weeds and briers, but now I'm willin tew go whenever the Lord calls The homes of the dead of the village are neow as bright as the homes of its living, and changin from one to the other don't seem dreadful like it used tew.[I've always been tidy , in my home among the livin, and I'd like to be tidy in my home among the It is my father's delight to accompany my sisters when they go forth to strew fresh flowers on the tombe of our ances tors.On such occasions he favors them with long extracts from the genealogy.; He never tires of discoursing of the career of the Johnsons of England, aud in ing of the trials and tribulations of | Sir Archibald his face is at one moment finshed with righteous wrath, and at the \u2018 next he becomes pathetic, and tears roll ; down his cheeks.He has now not only fully adopted sar imported ancestors, , but has also so fondly studied their his- ' tory thas he has come to firmly believe ! them of his own flesh and blood.I was made aware of this the day after our grand fumseral ceremonies when ! said to my father, \u2018Su ends the grim- \u2018mest, most protracted and elsvvrute practical joke ever perpetrated on the soil of New England.\u201d \u201cJoke, sir\u201d sternly cried my father, staring at me as though he thought me losing my wita.\"Do you call that which has been wrought by the hand of Provi- | dence a joke?Let me never again hear you speak in that light manner of what the Lord bas brought about.Iam as certain as that I live that Sir Archibald Johnson was my great-grandfather.The proofs are so many and so strong that I cannot doubt them.Not a man \u2018n Arner- tica doubts them.My son, what las been done may have been commenced in a spirit less serious than was befitting a work of such great gravity and importance, but all the time unknown to us God was guiding us aright.By his hand you were led to the tombe of our auces- tors, and in all we have since done we bave had his aid.Thus has our work been made to prosper and bring forth good fruit.& How you can doubt that those whose remains we have so dutifully honored are our ancestors I cannot conceive, es pecially in the face of all the proofs you 1 have brought home from the mother country.In the Bible we read that the patriarchs of old experienced certain internal physical commotions termed \u2018yearning of the bowels\u2019 when brought into the presence of those to whom they were united by ties of consanguinity.Formerly I could not understand the puenomenon, but now I never approach the tomb of Sir Archibald that I do not experience similar internal sensations in the region of the diaphragm, which I accept as a sign given me from one now in the other world.\u201d My father, being thus curt and decided with me, his own son and fellow conspirator, convinced me that had any dared to even so much as hint a suspicion that our imported ancestors were not all we claimed the old gentleman would have belabored the doubter with his cane.As ! had nu desire to detract from the family enjoyment, I ever thereafter kept whatever light thoughts I may have had to myself.Indeed it was to me always & great pleasure to observe my sister Eleanor strewing fresh flowers with pious care upon the tomb of Lady Eles- nor, her great-great-grandmother \u2014 by importation.If there were any who were previously inclined to stand aloof from our family, the dis 'ourse of Rev.Walter Movw- bray brought them into the fold of our friends.Still old Amariah Bradford was by no means disposed to at once admit that I was worthy of alliance mat- rimonially with a family of the *\u2018truest, bluest New England blood.\u201d Charity Bradford, the wife of old Am- ariah, was in full sympathy with her daughter and through her mother Prudence was able to learn something of the state of her father'smind.8he informed me that after he had listened attentively to the discourse of Reyg Mr.Mowbray ber father had said in a conversation with her mother that, though a member of my family had landed at Salem in 1630, still it was 10 years later than the pilgrims, and, besides, arriving in an ordinary trading vessel was very different from coming over in the Mayflower.However, as Lady Arbella Johnson seemed to have been of a very respectable Puritan family, her not coming to the country 10 years earlier might be overlooked.As her husband\u2019s name was Isaac, he was inclined to the belief that they were a genuinely God fearing pair.As for titles, they were all mere worldly vanities.He therefore pretended to care nothing at all for Bir Archibald and Lady Eleanor.He said they were probably persecutors of the righteous.Soon after this was reported to me I one day by chance found the Bradford of all the Bradfords at the cemetery contemplating with much satisfaction the tombs of 8ir Archibald, Lady Eleanor and Lady Arbella.1 remained aloof, being content with the knowledge that the lcaven was working.Upon consultation with Prudence we arrived at the conclusion that I might now safely *\u2018speak to her father.\u201d In a long time he had said nothing about Standish Bradford and had winked at my escorting Prudence to and from the gatherings\u201d of the young folks.When I bearded \u2018the Bradford\u201d in his den, he gave his consent to my making Prudence Mrs.Johnson, but almost in the same breath plainly gave me to understand that through Lady Arbella and her husband Isaac, as the earliest representatives of the Johnson family in New England, we need never expect to rank with the true blue Bradfords.As for Sir Archibald and Lady Eleanor, he said be looked upon them as mere vanities not to be taken into consideration for a moment in a country where titles are unknowu and despised.Captaim Shrimp was delighted when the seal of secrecy was removed frown his tongne and he was at liberty to speak openly of the important part he bad played during the courtship.My father was takea completely by surprise.He had been so absorbed in the \u201cgrave\u201d affairs to which he had long devoted his time that he had never thought of such a thing as my taking a wife in Pasona- gessit.He did not go out to the cemetery for a week, but gave his whole time to the genealogical tree, making many measurements for the new branches that must soon be added.My sisters were \u2018not at all surprised.\u201d They \u2018\u2019had had their eyes open.\u201d Om the occasion of my wedding I surprised Prudence with a number of ar- cles of jewelry I had caused to be made in London.On a braceiet I had à beautifully engraved tation of the Mavflower and the landing of the vil- grime.\u2018Inen otoer articies were adorned with the mayflower of old land (the trang.axvasses maytiower of the t ar msyflower New England, composed of sui precious stones.1 think the placing of the mayflower in some shape on every article of jewelry that | gave Prudence had its effect upon the ord of all the Bradfords, as he warmed to me wonderfully after the wedding.One day when he bad been particularly good 1 geve him one of the silver gilt buttons n from the ve of my great-great grandfather.le said it was \u2018a thing of vanity,\u201d yet his eyes sparkled as he took it.My father, as time passes, devotes himself more and more to his genealogical records and almost daily ales soe one with the exploits of old ffroi

can embark.THE END.VEGETABLE NOVELTIES.Some of the More Appetizing Ways of 3ers- ing Roots and Leaves.There is a horrible monotony about the way cauliflower, asparagus and celery are always served.An invariably white sauce is poured over them, and they are sent to the table with tiresome regularity.They may be varied by being covered with quite a thick white sauce, sprinkled with parmesan cheese and colored a delicate brown before the fire.Or any of them, after being cooked, may be stewed in brown gravy.Even the despised cabbage is capable of being made appetizing, After it is boiled and pressed dry it should be chopped fine and dried again by being put on the fire in the saucepan.Add a lump of butter, season with peppey and salt and add a little grated nutineg.\u2018When hot, serve on squares of hot toast.Mashed carrots are quite as palatable as mashed turnips.They should be cooked, passed through a sieve and put into a stewpan with a piece of butter, a spoonful cf cream, à drop or two of tarragon vinegar, whisked up and seasoned with pepper and salt, arranged in the form of a mound and sprinkled with a little chopped parsley.; Cucnmbers are seldom used except raw, and yet they are both delicious and digestible when cooked.The peel should be removed, and the cucumber should be boiled until tender, then drained and sliced gnd rimmered in good brown gravy, to which a very little chili vinegar has been added, for seven or eight minutes.Radishes, like cucumbers, can be served hot as well as in salads They should be tied in bunches and boiled for 18 or 20 min- ttes; then placed on toast and covered with whito sauce.Peas, French beans and sprouts are greatly improved by being tossed for a few minutes previous to sending to table in a saucepan containing a lump of fresh butter, a teaspoonful of cream, a pinch of caster sugar and seasoning of pepper and salt.A rather more simple way of treating French beans is a la Francaise.They are put into a pan with a piece of butter, the juice of half a lemon and a little pepper and salt.À ragout of peasneeds but to bo eaten to be appreciated.Put three ounces of butter into a saucepan with a teaspoonful of minced onion, a few leaves of fresh mint, pepper and salt.When these ingredients have rimmered for a few minutes\u2014take caro that they do mot acquire the lcast colur\u2014add a quart of green peas and shake the pan to prevent their burning.After five minutes add half a pint of water, a very little borax and halt a teaspoonful of powdered sugar.Cover the pan closely and draw it to the side of the fire and let the contents cook slowly for about three-quar- ters of an hour.If allowed to boil, the water will soon be absorbed, and unless more is added at ouce the peas, instead of being large and tender, will be shriveled and hard.\u2014Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.A Bottle of Tea.When you are starting out on a journey of two or three days\u2019 duration, a bottle of ten should accompany you.Tea is one of the best things in the world to put in drinking water to improve its taste and counteract the effect of change in water, which affects some people seriously.Take a quarter of a pound of tea\u2014black tea is best, or the uncolored Japan\u2014and pour over it nearly a quart of boiling water.Let it stand for an hour or two; then pour off the liquid in a bottle, put a glass stopper in it and carry in your traveling bag.Pour a tablespoonful or two in the water you drink.If yon desire iced tea to drink with your lunch, you have only to put two or three tablespoonfuls of the decoction in a glass and add ice water from the cooler, and you have a pure and healthy drink.It is said that the reason the Chinese drink so much tea is because the water in that country is such horrible stuff.\u2014Washington Star.Unlearned, but Wise.\u201cI'm after justice rather than hw,\u201d ssid John Dudley, who for 21 years, from 1770 to 1791, was one of the most popular judges of New Hampshire.He was unlearned in the law, and his education was so defective that he oould not write five consecutive scutences in correct English.Yet 20 acceptably did he discharge his judicial duties that Chief Justice Parsons of Massachusetts, one of the most learned of lawyers, said of him, \u2018We may smilo at his law and ridicule his language, yet Dudley, take him all in all, was the greatost and best judge I ever knew in New Hampshire.\u2014Yonth's Companion.QUEER PHYSICAL PHENOMENON.! | Means impure blood, and overwork or too An Baglish Lady Gaw the Specter of à Friend In 8 Graveyard, ! I was ane morning a sburt while ago | walking with a friend, Miss B., in our churchyard.As we emerged from the ' shadow of the trees on the west end of | the church I saw distinctly the figare of a man approach the south gate, which is the main entrance, pass throngh i and come up the path, which was only | ° a litile distance from us, toward the church.I said to Miss B., \u201cThat is Mr.Tate, whom yon mow we are expecting to viait us today.\" At the same instant, ao beautifully fine and calm was the morning, I heard the train by which the gentleman re- ; tarred to was to have come leaving the : next station.Miss B., who did not | know Mr.Tate personally, at once Jou- | ed across in the direction indicated ard | remarked that instead of going into the church, as I had thought was his inten- i tion, he passed directly on to the spot under the shade of the trees we had just left.Together Miss B.and I stood far a few moments by the grave we had come to sec, then parted.I went to join the frieud we had seen, but to my surprise found no trace of him.On reach- ' ing my howe (a short distance, I also found that no one had seen him, and | eventually it turned out that he had.been detained by businces and was not | able to come for some time.I have formed no theory on the subject, but can affirm positively that 1 saw him, or, as north country people say, his wraith, at the very time he was in the flesh at a distance of several miles.One thing I observed at the time \u2014heo never glanced in our direction; also that he carried under his arm the photugraphic camera he brought at a later date.Icould describe minutely his dress and whole appearance.His expression was that of a person deeply absorbed in thought.Talking the affair over afterward, Mr.Tate has told me that at that particular time he was regretting the unavoidable delay of a much needed holiday in the country.\u2014 Newcastle (England) Chronicle.THE HANDS OF A CLOCK, Why They Are Painted on Signs to Represent the Hour of 8:19.I saw in a newspaper a statement that the hands of dummy or sign clocks generally indicate 19 minutes past 8 o'clock, because at that minute and hour Abraham Lincoln died.This ie an error, for history tells us that the martyr president died at 7:22 in the morning, a fact which can easily be ascertained.Some time since the editor of The Literary Digest asked our opinion why these clocks were thus painted, and om answer was printed in that journal.It seems that dummy clocks or watches indicate 8 o'clock and 18! minutes because that is the position on the dial where time can be shown, the hands being on opposite sides and making a perfect angle, and also being equally distant by minute marks or degrees from the figures 12, taking these as a starting point.We admit, though, that the hands can be reversed, indicating 3 o'clock 41! minutes.There is but one other place on the dial where the time would be correct and show the hands equally distant from the figures 12.That is at 15% minutes past 9 o\u2019clock, or, with the hour and minute hands reversed, but this would not be so desirable, as the hands would be almost directly at right angles across the face of the dial.This can be easily tested by any one with his watch.It must be remembered that while the minate hand makes the circuit of the dial of 60 minute degrees the hour band moves but five minute degrees.Therefore tho movement of the hour hand one minute degree necessitates the movement of the minute hand 12 minutes, or one-fifth of the whole.We have in our possession an old dummy sign watch used by the late Mr.Samuel W, Beuedict in the early part of the present century, manufactured long before the death of the lamented Lincoln, which indicates exactly 8:18 Lé o'clock.\u2014Letter in New York Sun.Jews and Chess, In speaking of the great number of successful chess players of the Jewish \u2018race, and of the contest between the two Jews, Lasker and Steinitz, for the championship of the world, The Jewish Chronicle dwells upon certain traits which are prominent in the Jewish character.It maintains that the Jews aro the best chess players because of their possession of mental qualities which have always been useful to the race\u2014 such, for example, as quickness of apprehension, tenacity of purpose, readiness in the application of resources, the power of estimating probabili ies and an intuition which enables them to seize the opportune moment for developing action.These traits of mind have been marked in all the Jews who have won fame and fortune in the playing of chess.Second Wind.The following is an explanation of the athlete\u2019s \u2018\u2018second wind, \u2019\u2019 from Ont- ing: When we are walking about, we only use our lungs partially, sometimes only one, but when we commence to hurry or run we draw our breath faster, causing both lungs to gradually develop.During the time that this process is going on we get our second wind.Now, should a man not use his lungs in running for a length of time they will get, 80 to speak, rusty, and it will be with great difficulty that he will get his breath properly.If an athlete is properly trained, he will not feel the least difference from start to finish in a long race.Directly he commences to run both lungs will open to the full.Experience in long distance running proves the above correct.I have noticed after each cessation of a few weeks that my lungs were not so free; consequently I underwent the process of getting my \u2018\u2018second wind,\u201d\u2019 and as I practiced and got in better trim my lungs opened better, and breathing became easier with each ran.\u2018\u2018Second wind\u2019 is the full use of both lungs.Nature's Sovereign Remedy.\u201cI don\u2019t know how many times,\u201d said a young father, \u2018\u2018I have heard my 7-year-old son say from his little bed to his mother sitting beside him, \u2018Mamma, my tooth aches,\u2019 and I don't know how many times I havo heard his mother say to him (he never will let her do anything for him and all she can do is tu sit by him and soothe him): \u2018Well, dear, why don't you go to sleep?If you'd go to sleep, it would stop aching.\u2019 Somehow this always seems very fanny to me, though the little un takes iv very écriously, aud I believe his mother does too.Pretty soon I hear him say to his mother, \u2018Will it stop aching if I go to sleep?\u201d and I hear his mother say, \u2018Yes, dear,\u201d and after awhile everything is quict, and then I know that the youngster has
