The Cashmere Valley.

In the beautiful valley of Cashmere,
among the Himalayan mountains, lies
lovely lake called Dal. Floating about
on its surface, sometimes carried by the
winds from one end of the lake to the
other, are numerous small islands, on
which grow the fairest cucumbers and
the most luscious melons known. The
way in which these floating islands are
made is very curious. All about the
main shores of the lake grow quantities
ofreeds. sedges and water lilies. When
these grow very thickly together people
cut them from the roots which hold
them near the shore. The leaves of the
plants are then spread out over the
stems, making sort Of trestle work 10
support the soil with which it is next
to be covered. After this has been
done the seeds are planted and the float
ing garden is left to take care of itself
until its fruits are ready for picking.

Siovenly Grammar.

1t is impossible to make an angel of a
young woman who persistently uses bad
grammar. NOmatter how prettyshe may
be, or how attractive her outside ap-
pearanee, all that goes for naught if she
says Good mornin'," and GOOD even
in suppose she comes, like the Queen
of Sheba, with very great train"
and fails 70 prt adjectives after her prep
ositions. will il not mar the glory. of the
eoming. Seriously, should woman
be called graceful who continually
stumbles over her final consOnants, and
says, ''Lemme go, "''a good ell, ''firs'
rate, y han me that blottin' paper"
It's pleasant thing TO hear from the
lips of your sweetheart, your own es-
pecial beloved one, that she resolutely
declined young Phitkin's invitation 10
thi theatre. but when the artless maid
half closes her eyes and murmurs, If
ne came for me in a golden chariot !
wouldn't have went" you don't feel so
comfortable, so negligently at ease as
you were before that last remark of
Araminta's. Women should not de
ceive themselves. The most uncOuth,
illiterate man knows what elegant and
correct English is when he hears it. He
may not be able to string three words
correctly himself, but he snuffs the har-
mony of a rounded sentence from afar.
1t Is instructive. See how workingmen
hang upon the words of an orator. OF
his meaning they know little or nothing,
but the energy, number and cadence"
they catch, aud the harmonious sound
pleases the ear.

Earnings of Artists.

The high prices given for pictures
during the last twenty years show no
sign OF diminution either i'm England
or France; indeed, We seem TO have
reached condition of things in which
artists whose reputation dates only
from the present decade receive prices
equal TO those of great old masters. As
for the elder artists, already in full ce-
lebrity, there seems 10 be hardly limit
TO their pecuniary success. Meissonier
accepted commission a year or two
since from Gealer known to us for a
small picture of two figures at f3.O 900,
and when the work was finished asked
twice that sum, on the ground that the
value of his performances had doubled
in the interval. A thousand pounds
has become quite common price for
works by celebrities as recent as a new
opera singer. For fl00 pounds YOU
can get a small oil sketch of one figure
by such recent celebrity as NJ. de Neu-
ville- The elder artists of reputation
are building fine houses, like wealthy
merchants, and the younger ones are
either saving fortunes or spending
them. Meanwhile there is just as much
struggling as there ever was for those
artists, young or old. who have not vet
attracted the notice of the public, and
are not on the dealers private list of
available men. Some of those who earn
the most money are the most hardly
pressed by the necessity for earning,
and do the most rapid work.

What Registered Letters Are

An exchange says: The question is
very often asked: What is the differ
ence between registered letter and
any other? The difference is that a
registered letter does not 90 in the mail
proper 1t passes from hand to hand
outside Of the mail pouches, every
person through whose hands it passes
being required TO sign receipt for 1t
on receiving il, and secure a receipt for
il on passing it over to the next transit.
The person holding the last receipt is
thus always able to show. who, is ac-
countable for its loss. The responsible
ity rests upon the man who has signed a
receipt for the registered package, and
who is not able to produce the package
or receipt from somebody else fer it.
q The safest way to send money is by
money order. Where it does not 90 to
a money order Office it should always
be'sent in a registered package. Money
ought not be sent in an ordinary letter
under any circumstances. d There is no
possible way of tracking such a let

thing that is worthless and eontempti-
Bile, and the few good qualities he poss-
esses are quite lost in the dark shade

the same time with such a resemblance

THE DOG AND THE BEEs.

| "
A dog being very much annoyed by
bees, ran, quite aecidently, into an
empty barrel lying on the ground, and,
looking out at the bunghole, addressed
his tormentors thus -
''Had you been temperate, stinging me
only one at a time, you might have got
good deal of fun out of me. As it is,
you have driven me into secure retreat,
for ! can snap you up as fast as you
come in through the bunghole. Learn
from this the folly of incorporate zeal. -
When he had concluded he awaited a
reply. There wasn't any reply, for the
bees had never gone near the bunghole
they went in the same way as he did,
and made il very warm for him.
The lesson of this fable is that one
cannot stick TO his pure reason while
Quarrling with bees.
TIE AMI AND IuE GRAIN OF CORN
An ant laden with a grain of corn,
which he had acquired with infinite
toll, was breasting a current of his
friends, each of whom, as is their eti-
quet, insisted upon stopping him, feel
ing him all over, and shaking hands.
1t occurred to him that an excess of
ceremony is an abuse to courtesy. So
he laid down his burden, sat upon it,
folded his legs tight to. his body; and
smiled smile of grimness.
"Hullo. What's the matter with
youf" exclaimed the first insect whose
overtures were declined.
"Sick of the hollow conventionalities
Of rotten civilization" was the rasp-
ing reply; "relapsei into the honest
simplicity of primitive observances. Go
TO grass"
''Ah! then we must trouble you for
that corn. In condition of primitive
simplicity there are no rights of prop
erty, you know, These are hollow
conventionallties.
A light dawned upon the intellect
of that pismire. He shook the reefs out
of his legs, he scratched the reverse of
his ear, he grappled that cereal, and
trotted away like giant refreshed. 1t
was observed that he submitted with a
wealth of patience to manipulation by
his friends and neighbors, and went
some distance out Of the way to shake
hands with strangers on competing
lines of traffic.

THE FOLIAGE OF THE PINE TREE FOR
MATTRESSES. = The Meridian Mercury
says there is manufacturing establish
ment out in the pine woods near this
city-we have not seen it-recently set
going, manufacturing the foliage of
the pine tree into an excellent material
for mattresses and all upholstering pur-
poses. 1t is new thing under the sun,
and emanates from the fertile genius of
our German friend, NJ. Mas, scientist,
who carries science into the field of dis
covery and busies himself to adapt
what he finds new to human uses. The
supply of the raw material is illimita-
Bile and cheap, the product appears TO
be SO well adapted to the uses intended,
that we look forward to great industry
TO be built up from this beginning in
our pine forests.
