The annual exports and imports in Germany may be set down in round numbers at $800,000.

 

Two reasons why some persons don ' t mind their own business:  One is, they haven ' t any business, and the other, they haven ' t any mind.

 

A sawmill owner in Indiana celebrated his wooden wedding recently.  His workmen presented him with 10,000 feet of lumber, and a neighbor contributed thirteen large poplar logs.

The valley of the Red River of the North is said to contain 60,000 square miles of the richest wheat land in the world.  The six New England States contain 65,000 square miles but a large portion of this area is taken by mountains.  When the Red River valley shall be cultivated, it is estimated that it will produce 600,000,000 bushels of wheat annually.

 - Would a man frequently calculate his income and expenditure, he would escape many a bitter reflection; for he must be lost to every generous feeling of pride and honorable principle who wantonly incurs debt which he knows he can not discharge.

 - Kind Words they are blessed things.  Speak them everyday.  Scatter them like sun beams everywhere.  They please others and then return to bless your own ears: Kind words forever.

 

The pitcher-plant of California grows sometimes to a hight of twenty-four inches.  Within the surface is smoothed for a little way; but beyond that is armed with stiff, needlelike, colorless hairs, pointing downward. The size diminishes from two inches to nothing.  Flies and various insects travel down this road, never to return.  The needles converge, and the poor creatures find their death at the bottom without the possibility of retreat.  Cutting into an old pitcher, one may find a layer from two to three inches deep of densely-packed insect remains.  Whether the plant is insectiverous no one can say.  It is a allied to the Sarracenia, so common in our swampy woods.
