Mr.. CHAs. DUDLEY WARNER, wri-
ting of the Italians says: "The Italian
is talking machine you only need to
touch spring and he is perpetual mo-
ton. Ifwords were deeds the Italians
would have gabbled themselves into
the seventh heaven of prosperity long
ago. They are not without ambition.
They want to shine, to be rich, above
all to be conspicuous in position, or in
clothes. They have noble inflated
ambition to be somebody. But they
are not willing to work for it. They
hope to speculate themselves by IA
kind of internal evolution into some
shining position. What they want,
and it seems only reasonable that they
should have it, is republic in which
nobody will be obliged to do any work
or pay any taxes, and every one will be
in the first position. Clearly it needs
a revolution for this

POWER OF IMAGINATIoN.--The other
day Detroiter took home book con-
tanning several anecdotes showing the
power of imagination, and after read
ing them to his wife he tenderly said /:
No, Angelina, you may some time
imagine that you hear me kissing the
servant girl in the other room, and
you see how base it would be to accuse
me of such thing"
"John Henry" she replied, in a
smooth voice, eff l ever imagine such
a thing you'll need doctor within
fifteen minutes, no matter what that
book says!"

WHAT WOMAN DD.-The Lara
mic Sentinel says: Six years ago, Mrs,
Mary Ahart was living in a little tent
on the edge of the town. Her whole
worldly possessions consisted of this
tent, a straw bed, two or three boxes
which served as chairs and table,
little seven or eight year old girl, and
two cows and calves. She sold the
spare milk of these two cows, carrying
it around town with a tin pail, and
With the product, and from work which
she did for her neighbors, supported
herself and child. When she could
get So or S. ahead she would buy
another calf or yearling. 1t Us not our
purpose to trace her progress up TO Inc
present time infinitely, but the result
is she now, in less than seven years,
has several hundred head OF cattle,
iine farm with nice buildings and i'm
provements, a comfortable, even luxu-
RANT hofue, and, instead of carrying
milk around by hand, rides in her own
carriage. Her daughter is young
lady, educated and accomplished. To-
day Mrs. Ahart's property is valued at
from $40, 900 to $50, 900, and she has
made it all by honest industry aud
good management. She has had no
outside help. She never had gov
ernment contract or fell heir to any
property

INSURANCE AGAINST BURGLARS
The National Burglary Insurance com
pany, new insurance venture, whose
object, as implied by the name, is the
insurance and protection of property
from burglary, was opened in this city
Yesterday afternoon. This corporation
obtained charter at Albany about
three years ago. A clause from its
form of policy will best explain Its
objects. This is the clause: " W hat
this company insures against Is the
breaking into the insured premises
from the outside with actual violence and
carrying off from SAIL building or prem
ises any and all kinds of goods and
things therein contained Except those
mentioned herein as being hazardous),
belonging to the assured, or held on

contained in small packages are manu-
featured or stored are considered haz1
ardous, and double rates will be charged
for their insurance. The ordinary rate
of insurance is . per cent.--Neao York

NEVER use anything but light blank
cts as covering for the sick. The
heavy, impervious cotton counterpane
is bad, for the reason that it keeps in
the exhalations from the pores OF the
sick person, while the blanket allows
them to pass through. Weak persons
are invariably distressed by a great
weight of bed-clothes, which often pre-
vents their getting any sound sleep
whatever.
