' An enterprising washing machine
agent, who has been meeting with good
success in Whitneyyille, had his ardoi
sadly dampened the other day. He
called at a house in town, and, the mis
tress being absent, he persuaded hei
eon to let him show up the merits ol
his machine in a practical way. There
were no dirty clothes in the house, con
sequently" the agent persuaded the
young man to change his shirt and give
him the garment on which to exercisq
the cleansing power of his new inveu
tion. He inserted the' shirt in the
washer and placed it on the stove made
glowing hot with dry edgings. As ha
alternated his labors in filling the stove
and revolving his machine, the lady of
the house made her appearance. ' She:
inarched straight to the oven door and
Song it wide open. The smoke from a
ruined pot of beans fiilled the room to
suffocation. The agent was forced to
make an ignominious retreat. When,

NEW CENTER OF POPULATION.
Census of 1900 Will Find It Near East
ern Illinois Line.
What will be the center of popula
tion of the United States in 1900, as re
vealed by the coming census. In 1890
it Was a rurtrf'snot a fow miloa annth
of Greensburg, Ind., within the retail
commercial radius of Cincinnati. What
point will mark the center of noniil.-i-
tion next year?
The entire distance which It has
traveled in 100 years, since the in kin f
of the first census. Is 505 milna Tho
average rate of its western movement
nas Deen ao.5 miles each ten years. At
that rate the center of population in
1900 will be at the intersection of the
39th parallel of latitude and the 87th
deeree of loneitude. at n nnlnt- nimnt
three miles southwest of Bloonifleld,
Greene County, Indiana, twenty-five
Luiriy nines east or tne Illinois State
lit. .
he exact location
liot be determined until after th
bus of 1900 has been taken. Many are
of the opinion that the western move
mentwill be less than heretofore, and
STYLISH EFFECTS IN
ome even declare that the East has
outstripped tht- West during tho past
ten years In the matter of increase of
population, and that the ceuter will
not 'move as far west as 50.3 miles.
Government officials who are informed
concerning matters relative to popula
tion believe that the center will remain
In Indiana, and that Its location will
be somewhere In the vicinity of Terre
Haute. .
In 1ST0 the center of population of
the United States was at a point al
most due south from Parkersburg. W.
Va. Ten years later it moved over to
the southeastern border of" Ohio, and
for thirty years remained In that State.
In 1S70 it was nvar Chillicothe. In
18S0 It dropped ' down almost to the
center of Cincinnati. Ten years later
It had crossed Into Indiana, and will
probably remain there until Illinois
shall claim it In tno twentieth century,
it Is noticeable that this center Uns al
ways followed closely the thirty-ninth
parallel of latitude. It is a further
fact, cuiloiis enough, trat tne majority
ILDING FOR PARIS
of the large cities of the United States,
cs well as of Northern Europe, are
either on or reasonably close to the
thirty-ninth parallel.
In determining the center of popu
lation of any country, the population is
first distributed by "square degrees,"
as the area Included between consecu
tive parallels and meridians has been
designated. " A point 4s-th) assumed
tentatively as the center,' and correc
tions in latitude and longitude to this
tentative position are computed. In
1890 the center was assumed to be the
Intersection of the thirty-ninth paral
lel with the eighty-sixth -.neridian
west of Greenwich. The, population of
each square degree was assumed to be
located at the center of that square de
gree, except in cases where it was
manifest that this assumption woutd
be untrue, as, for example, where a
part of the square degree was occu
pied by the sea or other large body of
water, or where It contained a city of
considerable magnitude which was lo
cated away from the center. In these
cases the position of the center of the
population of the square degree was es
timated as nearly as possible.
"fc- -WS fr (LZJ G-i B-fc :
CEVXEE OS POPULATION' MOVES WESTWARD.
. Railways and immigration have been
the great factors In pushing the center
of population westward. Another mat
ter which affected it was the acquisi
tion of Texas and tha Gadsden pur
chase. In calculating ' St center .of
population Alaska andour more re
cent acquisitions are not included.
A NATURE-LOVER'S WEALTH.
Desire for Wealth-Boneht Luxuries
an Error of Mind.
The following extract from an inter
view with John Burroughs, recently
published in Success, contains things
that are well thinking about.
"I consider the desire which most
persons have for the luxuries that
money can buy an error of mind. It
means nothing except a lack of higher
tastes. Such wants are not necessary
wantsv nor honorable" wants. If you
cannot get wealth with a noble pur
pose, it is better to abandon It and get
something else.
"Peace of mind Is one of the best
things to seek and finer tastes and
feelings. The man who gets these, and
maintains himself comfortably, Is
much more admirable and successful
than the man who gets money and neg
lects these. The realm of power has
no fascination for me. I would rather
have my seclusion and peace of mind.
"This log hut, with Its bare floors. Is
sufficient. I am set down among the
beauties of nature, and in no danger
of losing the riches that are scattered
all about No one will take my walks
or my brook away from me. Flowers,
birds and animals are plentifully pro
vided. I have enough to eat and to
wear, and time to see how beautiful
the world Is, and to enjoy it.

connecting on the East with the Den
