VIENNA, Aug. 29.-The great powers
are constantly interchanging kilograms
concerning the proposed mediation. A
general agreement has been reached
touching the principal features of the
policy to be adopted but the details are
unsettled. Germany is the most back
ward of the powers. 1t is believed no
great difficulty will be experienced in de-
termining the steps to be taken, but sew
eral days will probably elapse before the
powers submit proposals to the Porte.
SANTANDER, Aug. 19.-It is said "a, $50

guns, will embark at Santander and
Cadiz for Cuba before November l.
BELGRADE, Aug 23.-Official advices

the road with Mai. Barry we passed
couple Of fields that were filled with
such wild, tangled confusion Of BUSH

t.You see, Merrihew owned that
farm, and he got along we'll enough
until one day an idea struck him. He
came to me and he said: Barry, lee
got just the biggest idea you ever heard
Of. Barry says he, there are about
eight million men in this country ,ain't
there! Well, how many toothpicks
does each man use in . year Say
four month on an average that's
about fifty year apiece. or four hum
dred million year for the whole ma
ton. Now what is the best toothpick
in the world! It's thorn-say two
inches long, hard smooth, with y sharp
point, and not likely to break. I've
got bush full Of them on my place,
and going to grow 'em, fill the whole
farm with 'em, introduce 'em to the
trade, and make my fortune
$50, sure enough. Merrihew went to
work and sewed about It's acres in
those thorn bushes, and the next sum.
mer he had the awfullest crop Of 'em
you ever saw. Filled the whole place.
When the thornS were grown Merri-
hew employed twenty men to pick EN-.
1t took 'em about a month at two dol.
lars day for each man. That was
one thousand dollars. Then he got the
toothpicks tied up in bundles, and he
sent 'em up to the city. After shin
ming around for five or six weeks, thy
ing in vain to sell 'em, y man offered
him forty dollars for the lot, and he
accepted the bid.
The forty dollars just paid his board
bill and carried him home. Two days
afterward the man had him arrested
for fraud, because the tootbpicks
poisoned the mouths of his customers,
and the court made him refund the
money and pay the costs. BY the
time the case was settled the thorn
bushes had grown SO fast that an ele-
made his way through one Of the
fields, and when Merrihew got some Of
his friends to come out and advise
him what to do, they decided that it
would cost more to clear off the land
than the property was worth and they
counseled him to let it alone. So he
did, and now he is driving mule
team for man in Smyrna for dol.

plantation is going to seed, The very
sight of a toothpick sets Merrihew

once when Joe and crept down to the
little room, and looked in at the half
open door, We saw the shadow of nurse
Stark on her knees, thrown by the
Pickering freight on the wall. Then
we knew that the end was near.
One day Capt. Paulby came home
earlier than usual, looking very grave
and with him came the kind doctor,
and with them another doctor, an
older man, but also very kind. They
went up into little Minis room, and
they staid so long that Joe and I stole
down from our cold, dark play -room to

uncle's unexpected return. And Joe

Capt. Paulby to let me see my dear

alarmed by my excited manner and

she was greatly changed. She looked

Mrs. Fish's Bonnet.

Mary Clemmer writes of scene in
tie ladies' gallery on the day of the
opening Of Congress Well up in the
tier, leaning forward, looking and lis
tening with earnest interest, through
the entire session, sat Mrs. Fish. Mrs.
Fish is woman Of great intelligence,
and, if it is within her power, will be
found where the interest centres,
rather than where fashion congregates.
My next neighbor-not the good wo-
man on one side, who never fOrgets
the heavenly, but the bright woman Of
this world on the other,--leans over
and whispers amid the portentous NUT
terings Of quarrelsom statesmen below
that MRS. Fish has on precisely the
same bonnet that she wore last win

self, and 50 should have lost the priv
ilege OF imparting the fact to my fell
low country-women tot course the men
don't care fig about IT.. This is the
GROWING proof Of Mrs. Fish's super
iority over ordinary women. The w0
man of .ssociety" who is willing for
two successive seasons, to wear not
only the same bonnet, but the same
bandeaux, in the language Of the last
century, proves herself Superior to
her SEX She is doing missionary
work these ..hard times" For IL
"Mrs. Secretary Fish" il willing to
wear the same bonnet two winters,
Mrs. Lieut.. Jones, Mrs. Grocer Smith,
and Miss Clerkess SmitherS will be
comparatively willing to do likewise.

There were drawbacks, however, to
our enjoyment of the day. I think
we were required to tackle more col.
lect than is good for child of six or
seven, and perhaps we did not quite
understand the bearing Of that shorter
catechism which bench of thought
full bishops had prepared for the ex-
press use of very young children.
Even Nurse Stark, high authority on
all points of church controversy, never
succeeded in placing its meaning quite
beyond all question. But Nurse Stark
had a special Sunday frame Of mind
which discouraged close questioning,
and on that day of the week she was
exceptionally short and sharp In her
replies. She bafiled our interrogato-
ries by pointing out to US that there
was nothing SO unbecoming As tend.
ency to ask questions, which seemed
to US little inconsistent when we con
sidered the inquisitive character Of
her share in the catechism.

whole eight horses made the 100 miles
each that day (after thirty the evening
before).
After hospitable detention of an
other half a day at San Luis Obispo, the
party set out for Los Angeles, on the
same nine horses which they had rode
from that place, and made the ride back
in about the same time they had made it
up-namely. at the rate of 125 miles q
day. On this ride the grass on the road
was the food for the horses. At Mon
terey they had barley, but these horses

Gated as the canalos were-eat almost
anything of vegetable food, or even
drink, their master uses, by whom they
are petted and caressed and rarely sold.

the hand of their master, and obey
with like docility his slightest intima->

springs them into action; the check of O
thread rein (on the Spanish bit) would
stop them; and stopping short at speed
they do not iostle the rider or throw him
forward. They leap on everything

master directs them. This description,
so far as conduct and behavior are con-
cerned, of course only applies to the
trained and domesticated horse.

How to Treat Children.

To gain obedience, You must first set
yourself to deserve it. Whatever you
promise your little one, however small
the thing seems to you, and whatever
trouble it costs you, perform it. Never
let the doubt once enter that innocent
mind that you say what you do not
mean, or will not act up to what you
say. Make as few prohibitory laws as
you possibly Can, but, once made, keep
them. In what is granted as in what
is denied, compel yourself, however
weary or worried or impatient, to ad-
minister always even-handed justice.
This is system much more likely to
secure your child's real affection than all
the petting and humoring so generally
indulged in, to give pleasure or save
trouble, not to your little ones, but to
yourself.
