See that your collar button is Sc

choler rising before night.
When talking, don't keep fumbling
your face, as though you were fin

Don't smoke in the presence OF
ladies. This does not apply to the
meerschaum and brier pipes your
lady friends have given you from
time to time. Smoke in these ladies'
presents as much as you please.
Don't walk the streets with your
cane or umbrella thrust under your
arm at right angles with your body.
The policeman may take you for
cross and take you up.
Don't interrupt a person in his
talk. The natural limit of mans
life is three score years and ten, and
he can't go on forever.
Never put your knife in your
mouth. The mouth is very poor
place to keep knife in. Apt to

Don't tuck your napkin under your

Connecticut Drummers.


In some of the small cities and towns
there are business establishments whose
travellers make Journeys as extensive as
any undertaken by the drummers of
New York. Connecticut men are
among the leaders in seeking new mar
kets for their productions. Some of
the large manufacturers of tools, ma
chinery, hardware and other kinds of
goods in that State send men to South
America, Europe and elsewhere in the
same matter of-fact manner that smaller
houses might send to Syracuse or Cana
joharie. A firm of carriage manufac-
turers in New Haven send a man
around the world. They sell many car
riages in New Zealand, Australia and
South Africa. On his last trip their
traveller drummed the trade up the Red
Sea and along the south shore of the
Mediterranean. He sold some carriages
in Egypt, but none in the countries to
the westward, where the British and
Continental manufacturers yet retain
command of the market. On his next
trip he will again tackle the carriage
buyers of that region. He overcame
British opposition in South Africa, and
expects to accomplish the same result
in North Africa. Hartford C0urdnt.

The Baby Planr.

A PORTLAND (Oregon) paper says
One of the strangest and most interest
ing Towering plants ever brought to
this country is on exhibition at Mr.
Shanahan's Madison Street store. 1t is
said to be indigenous to Japan. Its
technical term has not been ascertain
ed, but it is known, and appropriately
so, as the "Baby Plant" 1t is of the
genus lily. sometimes attaining a
height of four feet, and blossoms semi
annually. The one of which we write
is, however, not more than twelve
inches in height, with leaves about six
inches, long and two inches wide. The
floweris star-shaped, having five petals
of a handsome brown and yellow color.
The calyx encircles and protects tiny
little figure that bears an exact resem-
blance to a nude baby, its little arms
and legs outstretched, and the eyes dis
tinctly marked. lowering over this
diminutive form is a small canopy,
angel-shaped, having extended wings
and peering closely into the face of the
infant. The plant was examined by
large crowds, and people who have a
penchant for Horticulture viii find this
an interesting study.
