J. ..1 WsW W K r ' IMWBe(faBftTftB ISWBgJIlMi THE CLEVEE GREEKS. ! i Iiincs Curved to JiOOk Straight and Straight to .Look Carved. If you turn a book upsido down and look at the letters, every s will seem much smaller at the bottom than at the top, although when the book is properly held both halves appear tho Eame size to the eye. The upper part of the type that prints the letter s is made smaller than the lower half to correct tho fault of the C3-e, which always exag gerates the former. "When the letter is turned over, this same trick of the sight makes tho difference seem greater than it really is; and, of course, were it of tlie same width all the way it would still look uneven. In greater matters, the false report of the eyo is greater. If a tapering monument, like that on Bunker Hill or tho Obelisk in Central Park, were made with perfectly straight sides, it would look to us for, you see, we really cannot trust our own eyes as if it were hollowed in a little ; or, as we should say in more scientific lan guage, its sides would appear con cave. Those clever Greeks, who did so many marvelous things in art, thought all this out, and made their architecture upon principles so subtle and so comprehensive that we have never been able to improve them since. The' found that their beauti ful Doric columns, if made with straight sides, had tho concave etfect of which I have spoken; and so, with the most delicate art in the world, they mado the pillar swell a little at the middle, and then it ap peared exactly right. This swelling of the column at its middle was called entasis. Of courso it had to be calculated with the great est nicety, and was actually so very slight that it can only be detected by delicate measurements; but it added greatly to the beauty of the columns and to their effectiveness. Then tho lines which were to look horizontal had to receive attention. If you look at a long, perfectly level line, as tho edge of a roof, for instance, it has tho appearance of sagging toward tho middle. The Greek architect cor rected this fault by making his lines rise a little. The front of the Par thenon at Athens is 101 feet 3)4 inches long, and in this the rise from the horizontal is about 2& inches. In other words, there is a curvature upward that makes it a little moro than two inches higher in the center than at the ends, and tho effect of this swelling upward is to make the lines appear perfectly level. Indeed, this same Parthenon the most beau tiful building in the world when delicately and carefully measured was found to be everywhere made a little incorrect, so that it may ap pear right, which is certainly what may be called an architectural para dox. Tho graceful columns, which seem to stand so straight, are made to lean inward a little, since, if they were perfectly true and plumb, they would have the effect of leaning outward. The pillars at tho corners slant inward more than the others, and everywhere tho corners are made to look square by being in truth a little broader angled, and lines are curved in order that they shall ap pear straight to tlie eye. Arlo Bates, in October St. Nicholas. "IVntcr. A plaster of Paris statue, weigh ing five pounds, one of it is solidified wnter. The indescent opal is a mass of flint and water, combined in the proportion of nine grains of earthy ingredient to one grain of tho fluid. Tho transparent air in breath contains about five grains of water. The solvent uower of water is mar velous. The glass we drink out of seems insolvent, yet Lavoisur found, when in much use it acquired an im pregnation of the flint and alkali of glass. The corrosive action of water and its gases, though slow in process, yet the results become apparentin tho lapse of lime. The old stained glass windows at Westminster Abbev are honeycombed on the outside by tho rain, and in many parts nearly eaten through. One of the princip'al tort ures of Mahomet for the damned was a quenchless thirst, with noth ing to slake it but warm, filthy water. Lime and magnesia in water spoil alkaline soaps, by combining with the fatty acids, which givo them lu bricity. The tannin of tea is thrown down by the lime of hard water, so that tea infused in hard water at least one-third of it is wasted. Hard wa ter used for boiling meat and vege tables extracts their juices less thor oughly than soft water does. Pota toes contain seventy-five per cent of water; turnips, ninety per cent; milk 873 parts. The quality of wa ter when pure is not impaired by stagnancy nor liable to fermentation, decay, or putrescence ; it would keep 5,000 years and be neither better nor worse for keeping. Four close jars, burled seventeen centuries at Pom peii, and taken from there, were found to contain atom for atom as the same free air we breathe. The same is said of water. An influx of organic refuse into a stream will af fect it for several miles in its course, but a longer distance the oxidation of the foreign matter will take place and will restore the water to a puri fied state. Philadelphia News. A Southern negro won't eat a black sheep under any circumstances, and the Southern wool-grower is taking advantage of this supersti tion to raiso none other. Xovcl Things. An Episcopal minister in Virginia City, Nev., drew his salary from the people in poker chips, which were redeemed at the bank. It lake3 about 4,000,000 false teeth a year to go round in this country. "While diecrintr nt Grant's o-ravA in Riverside Park the other day tho workmen found several old English and Spanish coins of the date of 1792 buried fivo feet below the surface.

The man dealers in China are in possession of tlie richest traffic in the world. Tho coolies mortgage their wives and children, if they nave any, for tho faithful execution of their contracts abroad a transaction per fectly legal in China. Distinguished Advisers. The Academy News having asked a number of distinguished persons to write a few lines of advice to young men, got the following in response : Dr. Lyman Abbett: "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might." E. P. Roe : "Do one thing honorably and thoroughly and set about it at once." Ex-President Hayes : "Commit to memory and re cite Brown's letter to a young friend." Gen. Lyon : "No ono will ever be come a great scholar without con stant study, close application, and without thoroughly understanding that which ho may attempt before passing it by to take up something else." Gen. Winfiold S. Hancock, among other things: "Bo truthful, never try to appear what you aro not ; honor your father and your mother." Rev. E. E. Hale: "Tell the truth. Keep the commandments. Do not drink. If you have anything to say, say it; but if not, certainly not." A Peculiar Xamc. Dumley (who had just been intro duced to Miss Doddclum) You have rather a peculiar name, Miss Dodd clum. I never heard it but once be fore. I had some business communi cation with a man of that name in Peoria, III., ami a precious rascal he proved to be, too. Did I understand Mrs. Hendricks to say that you are from Boston, Miss Doddclum? Miss Doddclum No, sir; I am from Peoria, III. A story is told of the reporter of a .Iewir.li paper who prepared an ab siiact -f his rabbi's seimons, and on one occasion read it to the rabbi him self. "Slop! stop!" said he, at the occuneiice of a certain sentence, "I didn't say that." "I know you didn't," was the leply; "I put that in to make sense."

Everything tJoes Wrong In the bodily lnaehauism when the liver gets outofonler. Constipation, dj-spepsia, con tamination of tlie blood, imperfect assimila tion, arc certain to ensue. But it is easy to prevent these consequences, and remote their cause, by a course of Hosteller's Stom ach hitlers, which stimulates the biliary or gan and regulates its action. The direct re sult Is a disappearance of the pains Deneath the ribs and through the shoulder blade, the nausea, headaches, yellowness of the skin, furred look of the tongue, and sour odor of ihr brant i. which characterize liter com plaint. Sound digestion and a icgular habit ot oouy are uiessings aiso sccuruu uy umiuc of this celebrated restorative of health, an hich i in partes a degree of vigor to the body i hich is its best !mamntec of safe'v from malarial epinemics.
