THREE WERE ENOUGH FOREMAN'S GOOD REASON FOR STOPPING DAN'S TRIPS. Happy Events Were Succeeding Each Other in Record Time at the Mahoney Home—Time to Put a Limit on Dan's Responsibilities. Kavanagh tells it himself and says every word of it is true. Kavanagh ought to know; he was superintendent of the works. Dan Mahoney (accent on the first syllable, unless you wish to excite the wrath of every true Mahoney)—Dan set his pick against a rock and walked over to the foreman. "Misther Brady," said he, "I do be thinking I ought to go home for a few minutes. The woman wasn't very well when I left this morning." "Go on home, Dan," said the foreman, "and stay there as long as the woman needs you." Dan's home was not far away. In an hour or so he was back at the works, his face beaming with joy. "It's a fine boy I have, Mister Brady," he said to the foreman. It was Dan's first, and his elation was not surprising. In about half an hour, however, the smile came off and a look of anxiety took its place as he approached the foreman again. Brady said, he could "I jisk run over home and see how the woman is getting along? I'll be back soon." "Sure," said Brady. "On go wid ye, and stay as long as ye like." Dan was gone only a little while. When he returned the smile had come back to his face. "How's the woman?" the foreman asked, sympathetically. "She do be getting on, Mister Brady, and we have another boy." "Twins, is it? Good for you, Dan." Once more Mahoney took up his pick, but as he pecked away at the hard earth his thoughts were with the wife and little ones over yonder in the room. "It's no use, Mister Brady," he finally said. "I've got to go home agin and see, see how everything is." "Sure, Dan! Go long," said the foreman once more. This time Mahoney was gone only a few minutes. When he came back his face was a picture of amazement. "I don't know how to be supremely happy or miserable. "Be bob, Misther Brady." he panted, "we have another boy at home." "What's that?" exclaimed the foreman. "Another? Tree 'o' them? Look here, Dan Mahoney, you just take up your pick there and kit to work. Begorra, every time you go home you learn to stop somewhere, and I might as well stop it right here."—Brooklyn Eagle. MICROBES FOR FIELD MICE French Scientist Has a Means of Exterminating the Pest. The pest of field mice has been growing in some of the rural districts of France until it has reached such a stage that the government has taken action, and a novel and highly scientific method of killing the mice has been resorted to. Poison was tried at first, but it was found that it was not the most effective domestic animals as well as the mice. Dr. Danysz of the Pasteur institute made some experiments with microbes which are fatal to mice, some years ago, and discovered a bug which kills them, but is not fatal to domestic animals. The government has taken this up and appropriated a good-sized sum of money to distribute cultures of this microbe throughout the infested district. The cultures will be sent into the country, where a small quantity of salt is mixed with blood, and then oats soaked in the liquid. This grain will be distributed in the fields, and it is said that the disease thus scattered spreads rapidly and 25 per cent die within ten days. Bos'n Must Go. Among the changes now on the carpet is the abolition of the boatswain. So far as one can gather, the idea is to make all boatswains of less than fifteen years' seniority qualify as gunners, and let this rank gradually die out, as that of the old navigating officers has done. These alterations will remove one of the oldest warrant ranks in the navy. The "Batsen," as the boatswain was originally called was in the earlier days a much more important individual than he is to day. In fact, he seems to have ranked almost as high as the sailing master of the ship. Ropers and master crew were always his specialty, and the disappearance of these from the fleet seems likely to be followed by his own. Not that there is any lack of works for him to do. Even in the modern ironclad the boatswain has important duties to perform; but the authorities seem to think that the duties may just as well be discharged by the gunners, who are now on the top line in everything, so much importance is attached to the branch for which they specially qualify—Pall Mall Gazette.

A smooth glazed finish is first given to calfskin in France. The leather is curried-expressly for this purpose, and particular care is taken to keep it as tree-as possible from grease. The shins are then tacked on frames and coated with a composition of linseed oil and umber in the proportion of eighteen gallons of oil to five of umber, holled until nearly solid and then mixed with spirits of turpentine to the proper consistency. Lamblack is also added when the composition is applied in order to give color and body. From three to four coats of this are necessary to form a substance to receive the varnish. They are laid on with a knife or scraper. To coat the surface, the coat must be very light and thoroughly dried after each application. A thin coat is afterward applied of the same composition of proper consistency, to be put on with a brush and with sufficient tammalhack boiled in it to make a perfect black. When thoroughly dry it is cut down with a scraper having turned edges, when it is ready to varnish. The principal varnish used is made of linseed oil and Russian blue, boiled to the thickness of printers' ink. It is reduced with spirits of turpentine to a suitable consistency to work with a brush and then applied in two or three separate coats, which are scraped and pumiced until the leather is flat and smooth. The finishing coat is put on with special care in a room kept closed and with the floor wet to prevent dust. The frames are then run into an oven heated to about one hundred and seventy-five degrees. PHRASE OF GALLIC NEATNESS. Compliment That Could Not Fail to Turn Away Anger. George Grey Barnard, the sculptor, is hard at work in France, in the town of Moret, upon his decorations for the state capitol at Harrisburg. An American visited Mr. Barnard's studio in September, and, while he was watching the sculptor modelling, a strange looking figure reeled past the window—a long-handed man in a velvet coat, with a bottle of wine in each hand. This figure paused in the quiet street, took a sip from each of the bottles and went on again. "What a queer spectacle," said the visitor. "That is the town drunkard," said Mr. Barnard. "He is a person of talent, too. He writes verses, paints a little and has composed four popular songs. He is such a witty chap that he is always conversation, to cross blades with him. "Sometimes he says the pleasantest, brightest things. One evening, for instance, he was staggering homeward, after an afternoon at the cafe, when the town marshal met him." "See, here, Casimir, the marshal said, 'why don't you stop drinking—if not for your own sake, then for the sake of your two boys? Your example to those little fellows is pernicious. It will ruin their career.' "Casimir smiled bowed and waved his hand depreciatingly. "My dear marshal, he stuttered, 'dearest what you say, I intend to make of my boys what you will never be able to make of yours.' "What is that?" said the marshal. "Better men," said Cassimir, "than their father." Woman's Happiest Age When a girl is eighteen she thinks the best time of a woman's life must certainly be from eighteen to twenty-two. When she has passed her twenty-second year, she is decidedly of opinion that from then until the age of twenty-eight really marks the limits of the best time, and when thirty comes on the scene she is ready to give way to all those who believe a woman to be then at the zenith of her life. It is generally maintained that after twenty-five the average woman begins to attain her physical and mental perfection, and that for some eight or ten years after this she still chooses her charms undiminished. After this time, of course, it depends entirely upon the woman whether she chooses to advertise her years, or by her charming personality and clever dressing conceal all ravages of time. —Exchange English Girl Fund of Dogs Miss Ruby Cooke, daughter of Lady Cooke of Eastorpe, England, is believed to own one of the finest collection of dogs in the world, including Mighty Atom, which weighs just two and a half pounds. Another of her fads is photographing, at which she and her brother are experts. Also she goes in for fine embroidery, plays the guitar, mandolin and banjo (in addition to the piano, of course), and is a famous candy-maker. Edison at Telegraph Key A crowd of fashionable folk gathered in the Orange club of Orange, N. J., and received the election returns over a special wire. Thomas A. Edison sat at the key and received returns, writing them out in his copperplate hand. He took the returns a long time before relinquishing his place to the regular operator, and seemed not to have lost his old skill with the key. When Love Goes Reaping. When Love goes a-reapin.

TUNNEL SUBWAY SUBWAY PARK TUNNEL EAST → WEST Sightseers crowded the famous New York City hours the day follow- ing the opening of the HAD ENOUGH OF LAW ONE MAN'S EXPERIENCE IN DAMAGE SUIT. Verdict for Substantial Amount Successively. Dwindled Until There Was About Enough Left for One Night's Real Good Time. "Owen O'Brien, well known in Lawnade, sustained dangerous personal injuries while running an elevator in a paper mill in Appleton, Wis." said Lawyer George S. Foster. "He brought suit against the paper company in Judge Jennik's court and was awarded judgment for $15,000. The company's counsel appealed the case and it was retired before the late Judge Gresham. "The latter held that the complainant should have made himself acquainted with the condition of the elevator before taking the risk of running it. His direction to the jury were not responsible for the accident. So the jury brought in a verdict exonerating the company and the $15,000 judgment went glimmering. "The company, however, recognized that O'Brien, who had been long in its service, was entitled to some compensation, and therefore offered him, through his lawyer, $1,000. This the lawyer advised him not to accept, as he had good grounds for an appeal and would probably get judgment in his favor on a third trial. He told O'Brien to return to Chicago, whence he had come to attend the trial, and that he would probably hear favorably from him due time. "After about sixty days O'Brien got a letter from a Chicago lawyer asking to see him at the latter's office. "Well, your attorney in Wisconsin has settled that case of yours. Owen was informed when he appeared. "Everything has been arranged very favorably and there is some money here for you and a document to sign. "He pushed toward him a written undertaking to abandon all claims against the company and any further legal proceedings in consideration of the sum. I was to get $1,000 anyway/protested O'Brien "Oh, there were costs of court and lawyer's fees and other expenses, and this is all there is left." "O'Brien refused to sign and went forth to seek satisfaction. Lawyer after lawyer declined to take up the case. At length one obliqing lawyer said he would, but on reconsideration thought it would be hopeless and advised him to accept the $60, saying he would go and get it for him. O'Brien reluctantly consented, and the lawyer accepted his services and handed O'Brien $40. And O'Brien was so mad he blew in $20 before he went home and had only $20 left." - Chicago News. BAN ON TOBACCO CHEWING Edict Issued Nearly 200 Years Ago Against the Habit. In the code of laws passed by the towns of Windsor, Hartford and Wethersfield in the years 1738-39 may be found the following on tobacco chewing: "Forasmuch as it is observed that many abuses are crept in and committed by the frequent taking of tobacco, it is ordered by the authority of this court that no person under the age of 21 years nor any other that hath not already accustomed himself to the proof shall take any for tobacco until *he* hath bought a certificate under the hands of someone who are approved for knowledge and skill in physics that it is useful for him and also that *he* hath received a license from the courts for the same. "And for the regulating of those who either by their former taking it have, to theire apprehensions, made it necessary to them or upon due advice are persuaded to the use thereof, it is ordered that no man within this county after the commencement shall take any tobacco publiquely in the streets, highways or any barnyards or upon training days, in any open places, under the penalty of sixpense for each offense against this order in any of the particulars thereof, to be bee paid without gainsaying, upon conviction by the testimony of one witness—that is, without just exception—before the magistrate in the county, all the several towns are required to make presentment to each particular court of such as they do understand and can convict to be transgressors of this order." Why He Preferred a Curate. Dr. Lang, the popular bishop of Stepney, was formally honorable chaplain to Queen Victoria, and a good story is told of an interview he once had with her majesty, "I hear, Mr. Lang," said the queen, "excellent accounts of your work at Portsea; and I find that you actually keep a staff of twelve curates. You should take to yourself a wife. I believe you would be able to with at least two curates less. Ah, no mudam, was the period of the curate the queen, "that would scarcely do; if I have a curate who does not sult I can get rid of him, but I could not do the same with a wife." Fortunes in Texas Onions. More fortunes are being made in growing Bermuda onions in Texas than in the oil business. Some capital is required to operate in the Texas oil fields, while in the onion-growing business an investment of a few hundred dollars is reasonably certain of bringing a profit of several thousand. The area of the state which onion can be grown is limited, which can many hundred thousand acres. This land is situated in the extreme southwestern part of the state.

A night editor in New York was talking about the late Amos J. Cummings. "When Cummings," he said, "was beginning his newspaper life he had the good fortune to attract the attention of the leading editor of the day. This editor took him up, pushed him along and paid him a good salary. "The editor was absent-minded and he could remember that Cummings' first name was Amos. Asa was the nearest he could come to Amos, and the wise young Cummings listened in silence to sentences from him that began: "Asa, write a good story about —" or "Look here, Asa, can you get up a story on —" or "Asa, I like your work. I am going to raise your salary." One day Cummings had occasion to call at the editor's home. He was ushered into the parlor, and he laid his hat, gloves and stick on the marble table that stood in the middle of the room. "The editor entered, and the two men began a long, interesting and important talk. "In the midst of their discussion the editor's wife swept into the parlor. This woman was noted for her tidiness. She did not give so much as a nod or a look to her husband or his wife, but instead strode through the marble-topped table, gathered in her hands Cummings' cane, hat and gloves and with a snort threw them out of the window. Then she stalked forth again. "Cummings looked at the editor. The editor looked at him. Then,'m a soft, apologetic voice, the editor said: 'My thought they were mine, Asa.'" Mulish There are persuasive ways even for dealing with a stubborn mule. At the entrance to the subway extension near Trinity church the other morning a negro driver tried to persuade his impassive steed to enter the cage in which he was to be lowered down the shaft. The mule approached the cage, but nearer than two feet, he stopped and no amount of patting, tugging or kicking availed to move him forward. Finally the driver diverged himself of his coat and tied it about the mule's eyes. But that wasn't enough. The sagacity of the kicker was too great, and he again stopped on the edge of the cage. The mule was led away and turned around several times to mix him up. He was not to be mixed. Then the cage was moved and the driver led his mule blindfolded all the way around the block. This time he was fooled and was in the hated cage. He was not to be least a thousand passersby—New York Sun FASHION WAS HIS HOBBY. Young Clerk' Clothes Better Thar. Those of His Employer. "I went into a large clothing store the other day," said Swellman, "to and out something about men's fashions for the horse show. Naturally, I sought the head of the department. "Bless you, he said, I don't know. I don't dress in that class myself. But I have a clerk who can tell you all about it. Boy, ask Mr. Blank to please step this way. "In a moment I was approached by one of the greatest swells I ever saw in my life. He wore one of the new English long, loose morning coats of a light brown color, a white waistcoat and rousers the tint of a robber's allog. To his his manner, Clothes were his hobby, that's all. He talked of fashions as enthusiastically as a man familiar with racing would talk of horses. He knew all about the styles in London and Paris. He understood precisely what was wanted for the horse show. As I came away I said to the head of the department: "That young man seems to be well "That young man seems to be well up in his business." "He's a wonder," was the reply. "When he isn't waiting on customers he is reading fashion magazines and looking at tailors' plates. Last summer he had a khaki suit brought over from England by one of our buyers that for shade and texture could not be duplicated in New York. I couldn't afford to dress as he does, if I wanted to." HE SAW IT FIRST. Convincing Argument Produced in Youthful Debate Jim and Fred, brothers of six and four years of age, were fond of arguments between themselves. They were arguments that never went beyond the world stage, but on occasion became somewhat heated. They were out one day with their nurse when they happened to pass an arm in the neighborhood, instantly the spirit of dispute was aroused. Said Jim the elder: "I saw the house first. Fred picked up the gage of battle promptly and replied: 'No, you didn't; I saw it before you did.' "No, you didn't," persisted Jim. "I saw it before you were born, 'cause I'm the oldest than you and passed by before you were born.' This time I came to Fred's infantile mind, and for sometime he was silent. Then after a pause he announced triumphantly: 'I don't care if you are the oldest, I saw it before you. When I was dust I blew by this house and saw it." Pinning Off Onion Smart. "I have been putting up preserves and pickles for thirty years," said a housewife of the old school, "and I discovered the other day that I am not too old to learn something new. I went to see my son's young wife. They were married last winter. She was putting up onions—a decidedly disagreeable task. But, her eyes were on the sky. She simply nodded and muttered something between closed teeth. "What in the world are you keeping that pin between your teeth for?" I asked. "She removed it long enough to say: "To keep the onions from hurting my eyes. I'll be through in a minute." "Do you mean to say that will do it? I asked increcruciously." The pin was in its place again. She kept it there for ten minutes while I watched her work, and her eyes were as dry as a walnut." "The Other Side." Trouble came to try him—no rainbow in the sky! The wind winds a-blowing had the sorrow of a sigh. But he saw a star a-sailing in the firmament on high. And sang about "The other side of Jordan." The Light—the Light was with him! the Light—the Light was with him! In the soul that hears a welcome over the saddest of farewells; He heard singing—singing of the verlasting birth. And sang about "The other side of Jordan." And the world, it heard his singing, and the world, it heard his singing, and his fading flowers quickened with the freshness of the day. The world came in dim sky, and all heaven came in view— He sang about "the other side of Jordan— Frank I Stanton in Atlanta Constitution. Life and Death. But all God's angels come to us disguised.

The students in the London School of Medicine for Women were recently advised by one of their instructors, Miss Murdoch, to avoid uncommon forms of clothing and to do the best to dissipate the idea that medical women are careless about their personal attire. "Those who imagine," she said, "that slovenly dress is associated in the public mind with cleverness are certainly under a delusion." Object to Steel Building.

NO BALDHEADS YET SINGULARITY OF OCCUPANTS OF THE WHITE HOUSE. President Roosevelt the Second to Wear a mustache—Most of the Chief Executives Clean Shaven—Chester Arthur's Facial Adornment. When Roosevelt is inaugurated on March 4, 1905, he will be the second President with a mustache. Cleveland was the first. Whatever the presidency of this country has done for the incumbents, it has not been productive of beards. The first of our chief executives were as clean shaven as Benedictine friars. J. Q. Adams was the first to break the ice, but he was not a full headed President. His facial growth of hair hardly came up to what are usually termed side whiskers, but they were a trifle more expansive than the Scotch Presbyterian type. When he retired the beardless president came in again with Jackson, but his successor, Van Buren, brought to the White House almost an exact pattern of the whiskers grown by J. Q. Adams. William Henry Harrison again set the beardless face. The seven who came after were clean shaven. When Mr. Lincoln was elected there was not a hair on his face, but before he finished his first term he wore a sparse beard, with clean shaven upper lip. One of the authenticated stories is that he did this to please a child. Grant was the first President with a full short beard. His immediate successor, Hayes, was the first to wear full, long whiskers, covering his shirt front. Garfield also wore a full beard, but was less luxurious than that of Hayes. Arthur, who was the most correct dresser of all the Presidents, was the first in the list to grow the Burnside type of whiskers. Benjamin Harrison's beard was full, with a slight tendency to curl at the end, and was tinged with gray. After Cleveland the clean shaven face returned with McKinley. The mustache came in for the second time when Rosevelt succeeded. Most of the Presidents were bountifully supplied with hair on top of their heads. The two Adamses were the first to show a slight tendency to baldness. An Buren was bald on the forehead. Garfield was similarly marked. Polk was the first and only President who wore his hair in the antebellum Southern style. It was long and reached back from the front, over his ears. Buchanan was the first and only one, so far, to wear the top reach. Cleveland in returning to his second administration a tendency to not be easily blessed with a heavy growth. But no baldheaded man, as the term is understood, has yet been President of the United States. Value of Learning by Sound. "What do you think of the new idea of teaching children by sound?" asked the Theorist of the Man With a family. "I don't seem to take to it," said the latter. "I did, of course, at first, for I believe that our educators are achieving wonders in the way of helping the youngsters to get their education with ease. But I had a practical demonstration the other day that the new system has flaws. My six-year-old boy showed me. He offered his first day at school and he came home considerably puffed up with his own importance and the excitement of the thing in general. "Well, Bill," I said, "what did you learn to day?" "Yes, papa, he said, I learned who made the first American flag." "Good," said I. Here was a fine beginning—education and patriotism all at once. "So, I continued, 'And who was it?' "Patsy Ross!" "And he seemed so pleased that I hated to tell him he was wrong, and that he had done Betsy Ross a wrong by giving a man credit for her immortal performance." Election Bets Won and Lost. One of the heaviest eastern winners by the Republican victory is Thomas L. Woodruff. ex-Heutenant governor of New York state, whose bank account has been swelled about $30,000. Of this amount $20,000 wasager with Senator McCarran and his friends that have $25,000 plurality in Kings county. $10,000 that Roosevelt would carry the state and $500 even that Higgins would be elected. The bet on the state was made at 2 to 1. The morning of election Mr. Woodruff sent word to the McCarren people, that Parker would not get to the county and that he would place the Congressman Tim Sullivan backed Parker and is a heavy loser on the result.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1904 "Class legislation" is one of the things that is generally objected to in this country, except when the class legislated against is the Afro-Americans (there is never any legislation in their favor) then there is no objection. No objection is raised because of "Im Crow car" and disfranchise laws though they affect only a certain class of the citizens who under the constitution of the United States are entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness—and this same constitution says the rights and privileges of the citizens of one state cannot be abridged by any other state—why there cannot be some sort of show for a good, decent, well-behaved, intelligent Afro-American passall all understanding. What's the use of being honorable, upright, law-abiding, etc., if one gains nothing thereby but is put in the same class and is treated with the same disregard for one's feelings and just deserts. There were some newspapers that became so accustomed to lying about President Roosevelt and his affairs during the late campaign that they could not easily rid themselves of the habit and being lost for a subject used the Thanksgiving turkey which was sent to him by saying his children chased the noble bird all over the White House grounds and treated the bird in a cruel manner. The president nailed the lie quickly and effectively by announcing that the turkey was killed and properly dressed before it reached the White House. We have had our ear to the ground ever since the election of Roosevelt but we have heard no outbreaks or indie folliclifications on the part of Afro-Americans. They are moving along in the even tenor of their way thankful but not the least bit foolish as many of the southerners claimed they would be. --- TERMS STRICTLY IN ADVANCE: Monday Congress or a trouble will begin, we hope Congress will end some of our troubles. DINE ONLY WHEN HUNGRY. Eating When Nature Does Not Crave Food Is Highly Injurious Food is Highly Injurious. A proline cause of chronic indigestion is eating from habit and simply because it is meal time and others are eating. To eat when not hungry is to eat without relish, and when not without relish it wasted. Without relish the salivary glands do not act, the gastric fluids are not freely secreted, and the best of foods will not be digested. Many perfectly harmless dishes are severely condemned for no other reason than they were given perfunctory and without relish and due insalivation. Hunger makes the plainest foods enjoyable. It causes vigorous secretion and outpouring of all the digestive fluids—the sources of tyralin, pepsin, and without a plentiful supply of which no foods can be perfectly digested. Wait for an appetite if it takes a week. Fasting is one of the living graces. It has a spiritual significance only through its great physical and physiologic importance. If breakfast is a bore or lunch a matter of indifference cut one or the other out and unmistakable hunger and then eat slowly. If you do this you need ask few questions as to the propriety and digestibility of what you eat, and it need not be predigested! -fhygienic Magazine. DIE QUICKLY IN CAPTIVITY. Eagles Pine at Once When Freedom Is Restricted. "Why is it that an eagle won't live for more than two or three years in captivity, and in a wild state will live to be a hundred years old?" asked an animal man. "Give it up," answered his listener. "Lots of zoological pain have done the same before your time. I don't know the answer myself. The crow, the swan, the raven and the eagle round out a century in the wilderness. If anyone can find out how to prevent the golden eagle and the American bird of freedom, the bald eagle, from dying, after less than three years in captivity, he can make a small formate by giving the informa- tion to the authorities of zoological gardens all over the world. Much money has been expended in trying to discover the cause of the decline of captive eagles, but nothing has come of it." The Song of the Ship Breaking the waters wide, Beating toward the sunset, Peeling the water westward, Surviving the storm aside, Lish to the lilt of the engines; Hark to the rear of the seawet, The storm's stern most lifts, The song of the seas of blue. The winds play high in her rigging, And they blow deep in her hollow, And they blow deep down her funnel. A plume to their hearts' desire; The seas drum bass on her hollow; And they blow deep in her track. And every rope that can run, Is sounding its scarr-drum back; And a million months are calling; That water swells, falling the dock, And the seas rising, falling, In time to the temples' shock; For the trump of the resurrection Wind, withouth wind warm. And every plume of the vessel Is singing aloud to the storm. Every sultin in her timbers, Every stick on her mast, Every plate on her bed, Every stitch in the blast, Every plate and its holdings, Every blast in the storm, And thundering out in the chorus. To the song of the seas of blue, Bernard Shadwell. Fastidious Tastes. A story regarding a converted barbarian is told in the English papers and sounds new. A negro clergyman was entertained at tea by the president of a college. The guest, who came from West Africa, detailed some particulars of his early life, when a lady asked him how he became a Christian. "The story of Jeezebel converted me," he answered. "You know, we are told the dogs did not touch the palms of her hands. Well, that convinced me of the truth of the narrative, for we never cat the palms of the hands in my country. They are too bitter." Stars That Shine. There are many stars which we do not see, and which consequently have little or no place in our thoughts. It is only the "stars that shine" visible to our admiring eyes that inspire within us noble thoughts and greater ambition to live purer and more useful lives. How is it with you and I? We invisible and unseen without influence in the world, or without influence in the world, or stars that shine." a blessing and an inspiration to everyone who may look upon us or who may be influenced for good by our bright smiles, kind words and helpful deeds? Immense Amount of Paper Used So great has New York become as a newspaper center that it now consumes enough paper in a single day to stretch in a five-foot strip from New York to San Francisco. In one week this ribbon might be lengthened to gird the world at the equator. In ten weeks all the New York paper would reach the moon, and in a year, if they were cut up into a five-inch tape line, they might connect the earth with the sun. Circulation of Two. The "Daily Record of International Opinion", published by command of the German emperor, is not much of an advertising medium, its circulation being exactly two copies. One goes to the Kaiser, the other to the national library. It consists entirely of extracts from German and foreign newspapers, and its cost forms a pretty big item in the civil list. DISRAELI AS A PLAGIARIST. Statesman Appropriated Brilliant Words of Other Men. A recently published volume on Disraeli singles out as one of the most brilliant of Disraeli's savings a sen- tence which that statesman appropriated without acknowledgment from Bacon's "Essay of Great Place": "Ask counsel of both times—of the ancient times that which is best, of the modern times that which is fitest." The most frequent quotation of all Disraeli's sayings was similarly appropriated by him without acknowledgment from Lord Shaftesbury: "Men of sense are all of the same religion." "And what is that religion, my lord?" "That men of sense never tell." Disraeli, however, never himself appropriated a joke of Gladstone at which attributes to his hero: "A deputation is a noun of multitude, signifying many, but not much."

The events which led up to th MADE THE ANIMALS HAPPY. Sydney Smith's Invention of "Scratch- er" Very Popular. Sydney Smith's love of animals led him into ludicrous mistakes at times, as when, having given his pigs fermented grains, he found them all drunk and "grunting 'God Save the King' about the style," and when he allowed one of his quadruples to swallow a mighty dose of pills, the word "bottle choke" was a good idea. He had a theory that every animal delights to stretch its backbone, so he put up his "universal scratcher," a sharp-edged pole, resting on a high and a low post, adapted to every height, from a horse to a lamb. Before, all the gates used to be broken; after, all of the animals sustained any damage and the only question was which was the more pleased with the investion, he or the animals as they titillate their hides. Trying to Reform. Two English literary women have recently taken up regular vocations, and have abandoned writing. One has become a beauty doctor and the other has invented and is placing upon the market a hair restorer. But because these women have placed upon their advertisements "by the author of" so-and-so, strangely enough, they are now being criticized. Put their acknowledgment, that they have benefited from literature and that they can earn an honest living and lead a better life, should rather be commended, and should lead all charitable people to lend a helping hand.—New York Globe. The Bachelor's Song. I write these lines in a borrowed quill and write them in a standard font. As clever readers will doubtless guess The local workhouse is my address. A cruelty bachelor, A cruelty bachelor. A crudely married sailor. —London Chronicle. About Herbert Spencer. Grant Allen says that Herbert Spencer shered a passion for generalization. If you remarked it was a fine day, Spencer would answer: "Yes, anticyclonic conditions like those of yesterday seldom break, up without warning of the advent of a depression from westward. If you observed that Spencer was pretty, Spencer would reply: "Her father was a west highlander and her mother an Irishwoman, and intermarriage beween highlanders and Irish almost always produces physically handsome but intellectually inferior children." Wedding Paralyzed Business The first recorded case of the marriage of a white man to a black "gin" has recently occurred at Bamboo Springs, in western Australia. According to the local paper the ceremony had the effect of completely paralyzing business in Bamboo Springs for that day, the whole township turning out for the wedding. Nevertheless the wedding was a well-deserved greater, had some difficulty in even obtaining witnesses to sign the register, two old prospectors finally consenting when sufficient inducement was offered them. Did Not Look the Philosophy Of Herbert Spencer's appearance Grant Allen says: "There are great men who look like their greatness the moment you see them—for example, George Meredith. Spencer did not. You would say, at a cursory glance, the confidential clerk of an old house in the city. Afterwards, when he was more famous, was far more in the race than that; indeed, though always disappointing, it mirrored in some respects the idiosyncrasy behind it." Wild Ducks in Scotland A new feature in Scotland that promises well for the future sport there is the breeding of wild ducks. A driven wild duck presents as difficult a shot to the crack gun as a driven grouse, and the birds can be more certainly driven over the guns fro the hill loch than from the lowlying lakes in the English counties, where that branch of sport has hitherto been most successfully introduced and followed. And one great challenge for the sport should lead to its wider adoption in grouse counties, is that the sport can begin earlier in the holiday month of August than grouse shooting commences on the surrounding moors.—London Country Gentleman.

H. Browne & Sons. "A Political History of Slavery." By William R. Whitewright in recollection of the controversy over the slavery question from the early days of the 18th century to the close of the Reconstruction period in the United States. There is an introduction by Whitewair Red, which tells of Mr. Whitewright's career and which extends an extended clism of these two very instructive vol- In Chapter 1, the author says: "If there is one thing clearly established, it is that the Constitution, which formed the Constitution; who, recognizing that such an institution was inconsistent with the great principles of civil liberty for which the colonies had contended, and which constitute the basis of our Republic, gave great charter a name so repulsive to free-perceived witness that the same person must of that day. There was no state feeling that it was injurious to society was in no sense dependent upon sectionalism, and that it was consistently expected: emancipation was to be the rule. This came early north of Maryland, and it is not unreasonable to believe that the African slave trade, emancipation would have followed in Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Kentucky and "Opposition to the institution of slavery arose from religious convictions as to its policies. The resistance of those who with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because of the injustice of the impotent as his, or succumbed to the violence of political forces; while that having an important part in the creation of a third party. The Society of Friends led all the public prints as to whether Wm. Lloyd Garrison, Benjamin Lund or Chas, or moral influence for the eradication of slavery, outspoken utterances in the P-vesterian, Baptist and Methodist churches at an important in Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee. "Some years ago one who had been compelled to bestow endearment to the anti-slavery faithfulness of current history in dealing with the slave trade, endearment and then a controversy sprang up in Osborne was entitled to be styled the first African American writer who challenged "the truth of the writer who challenged "the truth of Osborne to be mentioned before other Lundy or Garrison, but strangely over-mentioned by the writer who was strikingly like that of Lundy—John Woolman, a friend, who was born in New York, and who was a count of his early life and career, exceedingly committed to the relief of souls. "When about 25 years of age he visited North Carolina, where he met a group of his holders and wrote an essay entitled "Concernations on the Keeping of Negroes." which was published, had a wide circulation. It shows that his life was given to him by the slave trade, preaching remembrance from colony to colony, preaching remembrance. "The author discusses with painstaking detail the "Free Soil Movement," "The Compromise," "The Nomination of Lincoln, and in their discussion exhibits a knowledge, which could only result from the leading men of those stirring times. Vol. II. **open with** a chapter on "The Invasion of the United States." In the history of nations wrest rules are treated with scant respect. They become disgusted by the oppression; they impel governments and invite disgust to enter in; they are the man who the Mr. Buchanan was brought face to face with; he was the man who the Union and overthrow the government, he construed the fundamental law to be the executive, Imagine Andrew Jackson, the executive head of the government in the United States, who gaged in the disunion have been they have bullied him. **House?** Would they have bullied him? CIVIL WAR TIMES Civil War Times. By Daniel Walt Howe, author of the Portrait Republic, 8th ed., and Merlin Corp. by John G. Merlin Corp. of 41.5 will now occupy the last in the present generation, to be a perennial and never failing topic of abolition. The first in the present generation was a war of giants; because many of those giants still survive its victories; and the next deadly breach; its long and dreadful marches; its Gettysburg and Chickasaw defended deadly breach; its profoundly influenced the civilizations of the world; because its echoes still reverberate all the various activities of American life. Because of these things the author's work with profit; by any one and many incidents of the great strife which has hitherto remitted unwritten, is brought forth "One of the most interesting chapters in the relation of the Confederacy toward the relation of the Confederacy toward the Confederacy Soldier." The author tells us, that the matter was finally deferred to the mander favored, the enlistment of black soldiers; that the matter was finally deferred to the mander favored, the enlistment of Negro soldiers, was defeated by but one vote—that the Confederacy deserved the enlistment of Negro soldiers, was defeated by but one vote—that the Confederacy deserved the circumstances of the Confederacy, was visible so visible that the leaders were deceived by the Confederacy "cause," a draft order was issued to force the black soldier to fight under the Confederacy "cause," a draft order was issued to force the black soldier to fight under the Confederacy "cause," especially interesting at under its banner, the flight of Jefferson Davis was at hand. There are other, very interesting chapters in the book, which include the author's twelfth and natural, and the author has written a third. ... HISTORY OF THE COMMUNE OF 1871 · History of the Commune of 1871, French Republic of France by Eleanor Blasen, New York- International Publishing Co. 1871, translated from the French of Lissagour by Eleanor Marx Avelling is a well writ- ten account of the political convulsions which have so frequently shook France to its foundation. The translator has performed the difficult art of preserving the peculiar epigraphic style of the French prose, and of which Lissagour appears to be a master. The author art of the author never lags from the opening to the closing of this book of extraordinary happiness. The Commune of 1571 was the culmination of the proclamation of the culmination of a criminal torpor that followed upon its authority, and which was prosecution of the French by the military. The military military strategies, leading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revolting cruelties of the Revolution were again carried out by Paris and elsewhere throughout the country. The events which led up to the war in Germany are thus described by the author. "Bismark prepared the war, Napoleon II. They might have stopped it by an earnest gesture. M. Thiers contented himself with certain grievances; he knew terrible inferiority in everything; he could have his own grievances; he knew their artifacts have made palpable to them the folly of the attack, and supported by this strength of opinion, have said to the French, 'We are impossible; we shall combat it as a treaty.' For France! Who will save the? the humble, the poor, those who for 12 years have been oppressed by the liberals, while the upper classes sell the motion for a few hours of rest, and the liberals empire, a handful of men, without arms, unprotected, rise up against the alliance; men who form the bourgeois have gone over to the people, faithful children of the Revolution; on the other hand workingmen unite for the study and conquest of the revolution, who will employ the attempts to split their will and enforce the workingmen." The revolution has up with a description of the terrific political struggle between the contending factions which must forth in all the horrors of the Communist Paris. Marseilles. Toulouse and Narbonne. They have human slaughter houses, in this fratricial struggle which for madness and unrest has imparted to the history of the human family. Many new events—that is events which considered the point of that period are brought forward by the author, in his work which considered the point of that period, the point is an achievement of no incomparable value. ```markdown ``` MONEY.

The treatment given the subject is his histories between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps he learns how much of proselytizing has been carried on reciprocally between the Hebrew and the Greek, has resulted a greater mixture of race than the Hebrew, or has learned the author does not believe in race distinctions whether these are founded upon or on the skin. So long, however, the opinion prevails that races are distinct part and inferiority on the other part and inferiority on the other part there is likely to be trouble between black and white.

But combine the two and you have a coat laid with fun, for her appearance and fit would make the reputation of a smart tailor. That's just what we have done. The result is a perfect fitting coat, one that does not bind, with a full group that when it is comfortable for walking and driving.

Dr. George M. Shrady of New York, met one of his fashionable patients, a woman who believes she is always ailing, in Fifth avenue. Immediately she began to pour out her troubles. "Oh, Dr. Shrady" she exclaimed, "I'm completely exhausted. I can hardly walk. What shall I take? "Take?" said the doctor snively, as she waited breathlessly for a prescription, "you might take a cab." Would Have It in the Spring. "Dock" Squires was a queer old "yarb" doctor of decidedly limited education, who flourished in New England a good many years ago. One day some one said to him: "See here, Dock, have you any diploma?" "Well, no; I can't got none on hand just now, but I'm going to dig some soon as the ground thaws out in the spring."—October Lippincott's. Consumption Attacks Negroes. Consumption occurred rarely if at all among the negroes in slavery, but now, after a little more than a quarter of a century of freedom, causes more deaths among them than all the other contagious diseases combined. The negro death rate from consumption is more than three times that of the whites. Tuesday. April 22. It's the next day to register for the city election.

As a rule a Russian village is a forlorn looking place, where the huts of the poor are made of birch logs, with upright oak or pine supports, ceiling of strips of the same birch, and walls lined with the crude branches. In these huts there are only two rooms, one of which is not for every-day use, but is kept for best occasions. This room houses those sacred images so dear to the heart of every member of the Greek church, to which belong the great mass of the Russian people. The other room serves the purpose of both kitchen and sleeping room, as one of the principal ideas of comfort to these people, ice and snow bound for so many months of the year, is warmth. In many of the peasant huts no beds are used, and on top of a great, stove, reaching nearly to the roof, is a much sought sleeping place. Although the conditions make dirt and accompanying results inseparable in the lives of these peasants, they are devoted fond of bathing. The vapor bath in a crude form may be called a national institution and a not unusual picture of a summer afternoon is the village pond filled with women and children bathers.—Social Service. HAVE GIFT OF IMITATION. Many Animals Seem to Adopt the Habits of Other Species. Some animals have wonderful powers of imitation. Dogs brought up in the company of cats have been known to acquire the trick of licking the paws and then washing the face. When a cat has been taught to sit up for her food her kittens have been known to imitate her action. Darwin tells of a cat that was in the habit of putting her paw into the mouth of a narrow milk pitcher every time she got the chance and then licking the cream off her paw. Her kitten soon learned the same trick. A lady tells of a rabbit that she keeps in a cage with a monkey and says that Bunnie has caught many of the monkey's ways. It is said that starving pigeons that have been brought up on grain will not eat peas to save their lives, but that if pea-eating pigeons are put with them they follow their example and eat peas.

That odors move with the ait, or diffuse through it like gases and do not pass through it in waves, as sounds do, or in swiftly moving _par- icles like the radium emanations, seems to be conclusively shown by recent experiments on the propagation of sceuts fhvough small tubes. In suich tubes there cau be no general motion of the air, and the rate of travel of an odor is extremely slow ‘That of ammonia took over wo hours to get through a tube a yard and a half long. The presence of the am- monia could be detected chemically at about the same time that its smell was noticed. It seemed to°make lit He difference in the speeds whether the tube was held horizontally or ver- tically, or whether the odor ‘moved up or down.—Success.

It is an ordinary social club. to which admittance is restricted to those who have lost. hus- hand or wife. At first the chub ex isted only for widows, who met to- xether, told their sorrows and sympa: thized with each other. After a time a resolution was passed extending the benefits of the club to widowers. The widowers gratetully responded, and now several of the members’ have Joined the rawks of the married again. The Eyesight of Ants. That ants perceive and avoid rays of ultra violet light much higher in the seale of vigion than the human eye is able to detect, has been shown by Sir John Lubbock. Now a writer in Electrical World suggests that those who are trying to determine the wave Iensth of the X-rays experi iment with ants, ‘The X-rays are in- visible to man, but it has not been determined whether it'is because they are too long or too short for his eye to see, The ultra violet waves are too short.
