Girls, aa well as boys, need to understand boat korosono exploBfbns. A great many lal acoidonts hupp«n from trying to pour little kerosene on the Are to nuke it kindle ettor, also by pouring oil into a lamp while IH lighted. Most persons Boppoue that it the kerosene itself whioh explodes, and U bey nre very careful to keep the oil ltseS rom being touched by the fire or the Ught aero will be no danger. But this is not so. » can or a lamp is left abont half fall of .eroscne op the oil will dry ap—that 1B ' evaporate \—a little, and will forot, by nlugUng with the air in the upper part, a very explosive gas. You cannot see this gu tiny more than you can see air. Bnt if it is dlnturbed and driven out, and a blaze reach- es it, there will be a terrible explosion, al- though the blaae did not tottoh the oiL There are several other liquids used in houses and workshops whioh will produce explosive vapor in this way. Benzine is one; burning fluid Is another; napthft, alco- hol, ether and oblorotona may do the same thing. In a New York workshop lately there WM ftoanofbenstoeorgMOllnecrathefloor.

The bUsa of the wlok sets the In- visible oloud of vapor on fire, and there is an exploalon which Ignite* the oil and scatters It over her ololhe* and over the furniture of HARNESSING THEMSELVES. What is quoted as tl thi it. tee- j thflfiligUeHt upngo tonu i / .nothing more than horse-bebit, showing what almost any animal can lewaby practice; bat it is true that the m*4*m miniated\ city firemngine horses, sal a lie, do wonderful credit to their trailers, and alflo to their own intelligence. The team of No. IB Hose Company, B»\*on Highlands, an good specimens of this. . They are handsome animals and as a*ted for their remarkable intelligence as for %ir fine appearance.

The greatest ri of 1860'60, i miles from a point In Virginia to twenty miles south of ChiUlootho, Ohio. The movement WM oatmed by the settlement of 'Jae Paolflo ooast. Th* centre of population in 1870 WM forty-elght miles northwest of OinoinnaU. Aooording to the last c«nsu», the oentr« had advanced westward iifty. eight miles, and defleoCed to the Houth about eight, being neat the village of TaylonviUe, Ky., about eight mllM from Cincinnati. It is anticipated the next census will find it in Jennings county, Indiana. Supposing the westward movement of population, the cen- tral point should cross the Mississippi about 1050, not far from the month of ihe Mi&> souri. It is considered probable, however, that it will never go so far westward, M there are large areM in the West which are only adapted for mining and grazing par. suits, and wltt Bapport bit a scanty popula- tion.
