bic that Mr.. Pile did take o great pride In
those ratings once upon time now lost In
the dim and nebulous psst aud 80, no doubt,
did many other people: but we venture to
say that very few take pride in them now
and that even Mr.. Pilie himself would
scarcely recommend their preservation. The
world has moved since those ratings were
put up and, however beautiful they may have
seemed In the Sllurian period. they arc un-

tho Pics Old subscriber, but really
he must DO well along In years by this time,
and 1t would be rather hard TO ask tho pres
ent generation TO defer their plans until his
protests can be stilled In the course of nature.
The fact Is that nlne-tenths OF our people
look upon these absurd iron ratings rs SO
many roles of our prilnoval condition, aud
would gladly have them removed. They
serve no earthly purpose except TO look ugly
and stupid and to operate scandal against
our public taste. They are Of no service in
the world, and they certainly are not hand
some. There is no conceivable reason why
they should be maintained, and every reason
why they should be obllterated. II they were

would In that serve d better purpose than
they ever could BY standing where they are
and representing our common civilization by
their ugltness and uselessness.
Weare afraid the Pics old subscriber will
have to stand from under, MS 1t were. He may
console himselfby refleoting that good men
In all ages have been overruled In the same
fashion. The estimable citizens who objected
to luclfer matches, the enlightened beings
who sneered ut steam the gifted creatures
who opposed railroads. the inspired hundreds
who prosecuted Calico for contending that
the "world do mobe"--all these have boon
crowded out OF the way and run over
by the brutal wheels of so-cailed pro-
gress. The Pcs good old friend
can catalogue himself with these
and others like them, and he may pass his
years In bew tlling the wickedness
81 the age into which he haa unaccountably
been projected. But. meanwhile we trust
hat the Council will gently, but firmly, re-
move those preposterous old ratings and
hustle them out of sight rs soon as possible |

A corner In newspapers Is something new,
and yet Italy is threatened with such a calam-
lily. Several gentlemen have been travelling
through the leading cities OF Italy
OF late purchasing all the journals
they could buy. One Of the papers for
which an offer to purchase was made
has investigated the subject, and finds that
these men are acting together as the agents
OF some foreign association, which IS evidently
aiming at the complete control Of the Italian
press, although why or with what purpose Is
unknown The free and Independent journal
which discovered this conspiracy Is greatly
alarmed at It, and wants the governments 10
step in and protect the Italian press against
foreign aggression, domination and control.

The mayor or Pittsburg has been literally
advertising Bob Ingersoll. That orator de-
livered one OF his anti Bible lectures in "the
city VI smoke" some days ago, whereupon
the mayor brought Bob before him and fined
him $50 for the oifense. The fine acted, as
might be expected, as an advertisement, and
Bob has been speaking to crowded houses
ever since. He declares that he can stand
these $40 fines AS long as the mayor can.

CuriOus Stories of Said Pasha.

Many curious stories are told of Said
the predecessor OF Ishmail Pasha, who
has been kicked out of the khedive's
chair at Cairo. The ruin of Egypt con-
summated by Ishmai dates from the
reign ofSaid. One could fill a volume
with the accounts of the eccentricities
of this monarch. One day, not knowing
how to reward little service which one
of his subjects had rendered him, he ac-
corded to him, on his own suggestion
the monopoly of furnishing butter to
the entire Egyptian army for one year.
On quitting the palace the newly-made
purveyor sold his privilege for 5000, 600.
On another occasion he desired garden
which one of his officials possessed near
the gates of Cairo. How much did
you pay for it?" asked he. "A million,
your highness," was the prompt reply,
an eXaggeration by two-thirds of the
real cost. Very well, l will buy it of
you" And the garden was paid for
This official had a son, n charming boy
ofseven years. Bring me your SON. y
said the khedive to him one day. The
boy was brought. "Will you kiss me,
little oneP" asked the ruler, graciously.
NO!" said the child, mo, for l detest
you" "You detest mel and whyP"
" Because you have taken my mammals
garden, and now she does nothing but
weep" Said smiled, stroked his chin
a favored gesture of his-then suddenly
replied: If l return it, your garden,
then will you kiss meP" "Oh! yes,
your highnessl" Very well, it is yours /;
embrace mel" BY this means the func-
tionary got his property back again, and
realized q profit of $500, 600.

An EleDhant Fair,

The great elephant fair of India is an
nually held at Sonepoor, on the Ganges.
Thousands of horses and hundreds of
elephants may then be seen, and tie
bargain driving and deceit of elephant
sellers seem to be. fully as great as the
tricks of horse dealers in other places.
The price of elephants have risen enor-
mously of late years. In 1885 the price
of elephants was 1925 per head on the
Bengal government requiring seventy of
these animals in 1875 the sum of 800
each was sanctioned, but not an elephant
could be procured Mt that price. Seven
hundred and fifty dollars is now the
lowest rate at which young animals, and
those chiefly females, can he bought.
Tuskers of any pretensions command
from $4,000 to $1,000, but the Koom-
eriah, or best strain of elephant-like
blood horses-will fetch almost any
price; $4,000 is not an unknown figure.

A Cheap Greenhouse.

The Germantown TELEGRAPH says
The cheapest plan of erecting a green
house that we have any knowledge Of
and we used one successfully for many
years--is to dig out pit in side hill,
where the upper end will be Just above
ground and the lower end will be two
or three feet above ground, where the
door must be, with two or three steps
down for an entrance. Wall up. root
the wall. and cover the whole sash, as
in hotbeds, the sash having more fall,
say three feet in a width of two, She
house being fifteen by ten. Erect in this
the stand of shelves, and when it is time
to take up the summer flowers, bulbs,
ETC., store them here. The glass should
be covered with thick straw mats. which
can be removed even when the weather
is coolest, in clear weather, for an hour
or two at midday, to get the warmth
and influence the sun. At such times
ventilation also should be attended to,
by slightly opening a sash OF two. No
fire is needed. Nearly all readily flower
ing plants will bloom, and there will
scarcely be a week during the winter
that a bouquet may not be gathered, if
the house is properly managed. The
summer is the time to make it and have
it ready for fall.

Fattenlng Poultry for Market.

No fowl over two years old should be
kept in the poultry yard, except for
some special reason. An extra good
mother or finely feathered bird that is
desirable as breeder may be preserved
until ten years old with advantage, or at
least so long as she is serviceable. But
ordinary hens and cocks should be fat
tened at the end of the second year for
market. Feeding for this purpose may
be begun now. When there is room
or shed that can be closed, the fowls
may be confined there. The floor should
be covered with two OF three inches of
fine sawdust, dry earth, sifted coal
ashes, or clean sand. The food should
be given four times day and clean
water be always before the fowls. A
dozen or more fowls may be put at once
in this apartment, so that there may not
be too many ready to sell at one time.
The best food for rapid fattening, for
producing we'll favored flesh and rich
fat, is buckwheat meal, mixed with
sweet skinned milk, into thick mush
A teaspoonful of salt should be stirred in
the food for dozen fowls. Two weeks
feeding is sufficient to fatten the fowls,
when they should be shipped for sale
without delay, and another lot put up
for feeding. If the shed is kept dark
and cool, as it should be, the fowls will
fatten all the quicker for it.-Amerjcan
