Inanlmate Objects.

MAN floods with life the objects which
daily surround him; not only do living
things, the flowers of his garden, the
trees of his lawn, seem to be part Of
himself, but even inanimate objects share
in his magnetism. The thousand con-
verging rays from the heart and brain
which make for him what he calls home,
surround his life as with an atmosphere
in which he breathes and is happy. The
vitality Of q person is in some degree to
be measured by the character and in
terest of these surroundings. To enter
some rooms is like entering a tomb.
The dweller there is alive after his fash
ion; but he is self-centered, and inn
poverished Of imagination, dull to sug-
gestion, If he can 80 abide to be happy.
Other houses repeat, as from a thousand
mirrors, the preferences, the taste, the
individuality of their occupants; before
we enter the room, we vaguely feel their
presence, and sympathize with that life
of which they make part.
Nor is this dover of selection the pc
cnliarity of the rich. The poor can
show it in their humble way as well as
the affluent. The climbing vine, the
cheap flower-pot, the select chrome, a
care in the dressing of the room with
suitable color, may show as intelligent
expression of taste, in its modest way,
as can the lordliest villa.
Not only does the hat a man wears
get the shape of his head, but it seems
10 speak of him, as does his cane, or the
coat which he has often worn. On see
ing them we seem to see him; the other
hats and canes which we meet in an
ante-chamber say TO us nothing If we dc
not know their possessors. Beyond the
Egyptian room in the Louvre there used
TO be the cooked hat of the Emperor
Napoleon. There was magic in II; il
seemed to radiate power and glory as
from sun. Beside it were the coat,
the breeches, the boots of the great man
all hung over with interest and curiosity
by visitors. But It was the little cooked
hat, that hid that scheming and insatia
BILE brain, which chiefly riveted all eyes
Even the richly wrought but unused
sword was as nothing TO it. Such is tn,
power Of an inanimate object upon the
human feeling OhequeT- Work.

A Louisiana Sugar King.

Mr.. JOHN BURNSIDE now owns and
operates eight plantations located in the
parishes Of Ascension and St. James.
On these fine estates over an area in ex-
cess of six square miles the sugar-cane
now waves in the breeze. On one of
them the Grand Duke Alexis was enter
tanned and shown the semblance of the
princely agricultural system of other
days.
In their fittings these places represent
equally the new and the old methods of
manufacture. On four of them the
steam train and vacuum pan turn out
the white and yellow clarified sugars
that are equal in quality to the product
of the largest refineries, and which are
SO highly priced throughout the West
and South for their agreeable flavor and
high saccharine strength.

The Marble Rocks Of Central India

A few miles off the road down the
open and well-cultivated valley of the
Narbada, in Central India, is mighty
river pent up into third Of its width,
and for more than two miles boiling
along between two sheer walls of pure
white marble, hundred feet In height,
with here and there seam of dark
green or black volcanic rock, which en-
hances the purity of the marble like a
setting of Jet. What must be the charm,
in a dusty Oriental land, of the GOODNESS
and quiet Of those pure, cold rocks, and
Of the deep, blue, pellucid water. I" The

lights the prominence of the middle
heights, and again losing itself in the
soft blush gray of their recesses. Still

almost lost in the hazy shadow, so that
1t is hard 10 tell at what point the rocks

depths the same lights, in inverse order,

which, If disturbed, many travellers
have found very dangerous, and, indeed,
on one occasion, they stung an intruder
to death.
The Marble Rocks, like almost every
object of great natural beauty, have
been sanctified by the Brahmins, and
many of the commonest legends trans
ported hither. Across the chasm the
monkey legious OF Hanuman leaped on
their way to Ceylon; the celestial els-
phant Of India left his mighty footprint

An Interesting Relic.

WE have at our office a handsome
specimen of the 4" discoidal stone,"
kind of stone implement that has very
rarely been found outside of East Ten
nessee and adjoining sections. These
relics deserve a passing notice on ac-
count of the rapidly-growing interest in
archaeology and especially in American
antiquities. The name is given to this
type of relic by the scientists from its
shape-that of double convex disk.
They are usually made of the hardest
quartz, very symmetrical, and beauti-
fully polished, and the manufacture of
a single one, without the use of metallic
tools, might have cost the ancient work.
men the labor of months The tradi-
tions of the CherOkees do not reach
back to the origin of these implements,
but only say that their first people found
them here and made use of them in
playing d" chungke, d" game described
by early writers as being somewhat
similar to ten-pins. Like many relics
of the stone age, whose use can not be
accounted for, the discoidal stone is as
cribed to the mound builders. The
present specimen was recently plowed
up in a field near Kingston. 1t is made
Of beautiful vsriegated quartzite, pol
ished smooth as the finest marble and
so hard that it would turn the edge of
the best tempered steel drill. Whatever
its original purpose was, it must have
been something the owner considered
very important. 1t was probably con-
nected with some superstition or some
religious belief or ceremony.-Rno1-

Care of NewIy.sot Trees and Shrubs.

In view Of the drohth which prevails
in many parts Of the country and its
unusual severity over extensive districts,
we would suggest TO those who have
planted trees or shrubs the past spring
that there is one method, and so far as
we know, only one, by which they may
be protected against injury or death
from that cause. Surface watering has
been shown TO do more harm than good.
The ground is made hard and compact,
thus becoming a better conductor of
heat while 1t becomes less pervious to
air and moisture. A portion of the sur
face soil should be removed, and then
pailful after pailful of water thrown in
until the ground, TO depth of two feet
and to a width about the stem of not
less than three feet in diameter, has be-
come saturated. Then, as soon as the
water has disappeared from the surface,
the removed soil should be well pulver-
lied and returned. A covering of
boards, straw or hay, or even of sand or
gravel, may then be applied, and the
tree or shrub, thus treated, will pass
through ten days of additional drouth
In safety.
As soon as rain comes to wet the
earth thoroughly, we think it is better
10 remove the mulch, Nothing is then
gained by permitting II TO remain. Mel
lowing the surface soil about the trees,
thus keeping Il free from grass and
weeds, is then the most that Is needed.
We would repeat that the present is the
season when the female borer deposits
har eggs on the stems of fruit trees, and
the wash Of lime, postash, sulphur, etc.
(darkenod with lampblsck), should now
be applied and re-applied during June
and July, as soon as washed of by rain.
