Easy Bookkeeping.
A Chicago woman, according to The Post of that city, had served acceptably as treasurer of the club for a little overa year, and that was an exceptional record.
**Don’t you have difficulty in balancing your books?”’ they asked.
‘*Oh, dear, no,’’ she replied. ‘‘Why, it’s the easiest thing in the world. [I just add up what I have received and subtract from that what I have paid out, to show what is due the club, and then 1 make my hus- band give me a check for the amount.

The Use of the Inclined Plane In thé Building of the Pyramids,
Ata meeting of the Philosophical so- ciety of Washington J. E, Watkins pre- sented a paperon ‘**Tbe Transportation and Lifting of Heavy Bodies by the An- cient Engineers.’’ The purpose of the pa- per was to show how many of the struc- tures regarded as remarkable by expert
engineers of the present day 1 which some archeologists declare must have re- quired in their erection the use of im-
mense machines, could have been con- structed by primitive tools and simple methods.
By means of diagrams the speaker ex- plained how inclined planesof earth could be used in placing in position stone blocks or slabs of enormous weight, levels and pry bars being employed in setting them up. He then demonstrated hi comparatively speaking, the pyramids could have been constructed by these sim- ple methods, and when completed the earth around them which had been used for the inclined planes filled into the pits from which it was taken, leaving the ground as level as before.
As an illustration the pyramid of Gizeh was cited, some of the stones of which were transported a distance of 500 miles In this case the highest embankment nec- essary when the workmen reached the top course, assuming that a 20 per cent grada was adopted, would have been 750 yards long, containing, as it did, some 7,500,000 cubic yards, provided the sides of the em- bankment would stand at an angle of 380 degrees, Which ‘is not at all improbable. A force of 10,000 men could bave built such, an embankment in a single twelvemonth, a very stall part of the total labor, which it is stated called fcr the services of 100,- 000 men for 20 years.
In the solution cf the probiem of put- ting in place huge monoliths ‘t was sxz- gested that the modern engineer «"\ 20 well consider the utilization of ine! sz, planes before adopting a ‘bore s0mpsi: method.—Science.

KEATS ON MARRIAGE. A Barrier Against Matrimony Whi bh the Poet Could Not Overcome.
Notwithstanding your Happinre#s and your recommendation, I hope I shall never marry. ‘Though the most beautiful Crea- ture were waiting for me at the end of a Journey or a Walk, though the Carpet were of Silk, the Curtains of the morning clouds, the chairs and sofa stuffed with Cygnets’ down, the food Manna, the Wine beyond Claret, the Window opening on Winander mere, I should not feel, or rather my Happiness would not be so fine, as my Solitude is sublime. Then, instead of what 1 have described, there is a sublimity to welcome me home. ‘The roaring of the wind is my wife and the Stars through the window pane are my Children. The mighty abstract Idea I have of Beauty in all things stifles the more divided and minute domestic happiness—an amiable wife and sweet Children I contemplate ‘as a part of that Beauty, but I must have a thousand of those beautiful particles to fill up my beart.
I feel more and more every day as my imagination strengthens that Ido not live in this world alone, but in a thousand
worlds. No sooner am J alone than shapes | of epic greatness are stationed around me | and serve my Spirit the office which is [
equivalent to a King’s bodyguard—then ‘Tragedy with sceptered pall comes sweep- ing by.’’ According to my state of mind [ am with Achilles shouting in the Trenches, or with Theocritus in the Vales of Sicily. Or I throw my whole being into Troilus, and repeating those lines, ‘‘I wander like
ing for waftage,’’ I melt into the air with a voluptuousness so delicate that I am content to be alone.
erality of women, who appear to me as children to whom I would rather give a sugar Plum than my time, form a barrier against Matrimeny which I rejoice in.—

and a brace of daggers in his waist. When
I recognized a beautiful baft or noticed @ }
slender inlaid native gun or singular shield, I offered to buy. But nothing would induce them tosell. ‘‘Sahib,’’ said one man, ‘‘E killed my deadliest foe with this blade, right through his black heart. You see this dint in my shield? dint was caused by a spear! The shield saved my life. Shé&l) I, then, sell it for money*> My gun? No, sahib. I am an Arab, and wy gun is my other self. How could Il bean Arabiflhad nogun? This sword—it belonged tomy grandfather. It bas kifNed 40 men. By Mohammed, it is true! These marks, sahib, you see these Only one of these marks is put there when a man is killed.’’ I offered three times the value. The answer al- ways was: “‘No, sahib, I will not. I can- not.”’
Everybody, frem the frolicsome boy of 8 to the tottering imbecile of 80, carried aweapon. The old men had rusty swords that reminded me of the unwieldly double bladed monsters that Richard Coeur de Lion and his knights swung in the face of the Saracens. These Muscat swords are 4 feet 6 inches long, the blades 3 inches wide, and the handles provide room for both fists to grasp. Law is an unknown quantity in eastern Arabia.—Chambers’ Journal.
