li-l:.
replied, with tears in hw eye:
-ir, it was running on the streets
that niiiud me. I hud a goed home
and goxnl parents; t ut I wanted to be
on tlii street all I could. I v.ouiu
lij out of th nmsK whenever I found
a r nance, and hunt' for boys 10 iiuj
with. In tl t street 1 found all kinds
of dots, but they were nearly all btd
noy.'i, like mvself, who wan tea 10 oe
away from home. Willi them I learn
ed to lounge around and be idle.
Wilh.tbeni I learned to swear, and 1
learned ta smoke, and I learned to
gamble; and then I learned to steal.
All these things I learned by beingput
on the'street, when I ought to have
been at home or at school. ; .
It seemed pleasant to him, as it does
to some who read this story, to spend
hi? time in idleness or wicked sport.
He thought his parents were far too
strict; other bad ooys told Dim they
were, and he was readyto believe it.
He thought it smart to nave his own
war, and to cheat his parents.
Hut now he was in prisou. This
was his reward for having his own
way. He had paid a vry high price
for his pleasure. Would you like to
have your own way about running the
streets, if you knew it would lead you
to prison? You would do well1, to
think of this. . When this roung man
was a little boy, he never thought he
would be too smart for that.
The right way is the way of obf
dience. To honor your parents is
ohevincrGod. The right way is the
easiest way, and the pleasantest way
and the bestway, and the way that
will bring the Le4 reward. The Bible
was given to us to show us the right
way. Then the best hoolc for us to
study is the Bible. Ex.
Barnyard Hanurc.
Manure is usually vaiueujn pro
portion as it has liecome decomposed.
Hence a load of manure that has been
forked over repeatedly until it is
soft black mass will command a very
much higher price from an agricultur
ist than a load of far greater bulk, as
it is commonly hauled out on to farms
from town stables. So far as the
present value of the two is concerned
such an estimation is unquestionably
a correct one. The decomposed ma
nure represents the fermented residue
of an originally much larger ouantitv
and is now in a condition that admits
of its being distributed more evenly
and worked into the sou more thor
oughly than the dung and straw bed
diug of the stables, which must under
go chemical changes to put them into
best condition for plant food.
The important point to be consid
ered, however, is whether the barn
yard or the field is the place for this
decomposition to be effected with the
greatest economy in fertility and ul
timately to the greatest advantage to
the crop. Many practical agricultur
ists aie now in favor of applying both
dung and urine and the litter of the
stables to the land in their fresh con
dition rather than to leave these to
ferment in a mass in the barnyard or
in heaps in the field. The moment
any kind of manure begins Jo ferment
it gives off some of its substance in
the form of gas, and if this fermen
tation is madb to take place in the soil
it will be less violent than when fully
exposed to the atmosphere and there
will be far less waste of fertilizing sub
stances while the decomposition is
going on. Furthermore the fermen
tation so far as it occurs in the soil
not only changes the character of the
raw manure applied but its action ex
tends to disintegrating insoluble sub-
tances in the soil itself and fitting
them for plant food: liural World.
The Heat In the Earth.
There are' very important evidences
of internal, heat derived from the uni
versal phenomenon of a fairly uniform
increase of temperature in all deD
wells, mines, borings or tunnels. This
increase has been usually reckoned as
1 der. Fahrenheit for each sixty feet
of descent, but a recant very careful es
timate by Frofessor Prestwich, derived
from the whole of the available data.
gives 1 deg. Fahrenheit for every 47.5
tees or descent.
It is a curious indication of the uni
versality of this increase that even in
the coldest parts of Siberia, where the
soil is frozen to a depth of 620 feet,
there is a steady increase in the tem
perature of this frozen soil from the
surface down ward.
Much has been made by some wri
ters of the local differences of the rate
of increase, varying from 1 deg. in
twenty-eight feet to 1 deg. m ninety-
hve, and also of the fact that in some
places the rate of increase diminishes
as the depth becomas greater. But
when we consider that springs often
bring up heated water to the surface
in countries far removed from auy seat
cf volcanic action, and the extent to
which water permeates the rocksr at all
depths reached by man, such divergen
ces are exactly what we might expect.
Now, this average rate of increase, if
continued downward, would imply a
temperature capable of melting rock at
about twenty miles deep or less.

Whereas, It is currently reported

Therefore, be it resolved, That the
Secretary of the Treasury be and he is
hereby requested to inform this House
whether he contemplates the issuance
of any bonds of the government, and
if so how, where, to whom and at
what price it is proposed to dipoe of

Mr. Hynum was asked whether or
not he hud reason to believe that tha
Secretary of the Treasury was about to
issue such bounds. He replied that
such Wi,s reported and that he had
heard the report from several sources.
It was reported that the Secretary was
about to issue $50,000,000 in bonds
with which to secure gold; that the
bonds had all been taken by a syndi
cate of bankers and that the gold the
Secretary had received from banks this
week had been given as part of the
transaction. It was proposed whether
or not the report was correct.

The joung man had married the rich
man's daughter, and wasn't killing bim

her father called him urt to call him
down.
"Look here," he said emphatically,
"why don't you go to work ?"
1 don't have to," the sou-in-law re
plied, with brazen ffrontery.
"Well, you will have to."
"Because, sir, I can't live always to
support vou."
"But you will leave us something?"
"Not much I won't. There won't be
anything to leave."
The son-in-law .was alarmed.
"Great Jupiter 1" he exclaimed.
"You don't mean to tell me that you
have nothing?"
That's about the size of it." .
The son-in-law devoted himself to
profound thought for several seconds.
"I have a suggestion to offer," he said,
in a business like way.
"What is it? asked the old gent.
"Well I suggest that you take out,
say, $100,000 life insurance on yourself
to save wear and tear on my mind."
