THE ORIGINAL OF "MR. VENUS."

IHE OhI6lN UT " 2MAs AN Wv
While drawing the illustrations for
"Our Mutual Friend" it happened that
Marcus Stone had the privilege Of sug-
costing a character to Dickens-Or per-
haps it would be more accurate to say,
investing character with strange ex-
ternal attributes. Dickens required
MIR. Venus for his story, but it was in
doubt what occupation to give him. 1t
must he something strange, weird or
grotesque-an uncommon calling; Il
CHASTITY, SO much the better. It was re.
auired to "dress" Mr.. Venus, SO to
speak. The question was put over Dick
ems dinner table, and his young friend
at once suggested a man who prepared
skeletons and wired up" dead animals
for artists. Dickens jumped at the idea
at once, and the preparer Of skeletons
could not think who the quiet gentle
man was who came in with his customer,
and waited so long while his friend
showed himself very difficult to please.
Only the other day Mr.. Stone paid a
visit to the prototype of Mr.. Venus to
get some doves "wired up" to paint
from in his picture Married for Love, "
Int found that Mr.. Venus own skeleton
had been under ground for some time
the clever naturalist" was dead. His
name was Willis, and he lived in Seven

THE Pueblo INDIANS.

The Pueblos, the native Indians, are
peculiar people. They live in towns
along streams. Their homes are built
of adobe; are kept clean and homelike.
They raise cattle ard sheep, and in
many places cultivate small patches OF
vegetables. They have a government
among themselves in each town. The
chief officer they call Cacique, who is at
the head of the church and town. He
is the priest of Montezuma, and ruler
over the temporal affairs Of the town.
The Governor is appointed for one year

pie of the town without his order. He
receives no pay; theoficeis purely hon
orary. After his term Of Office expires,
he becomes a Principal man, and may
be again elected to the office. The cx,
Governors make up the Beard OF Adj
visers to the Governor. They also elcc'
an officer who is Chief Of Police, which
they call Aguazil. They have War
Captain. who has nothing to do unless
in time Of war. He is sort OF militia
Colonel-who struts around on review
days, feels great. and imagires himself
the admired Of all eyes. These people
are peaceable and quiet. They are con-
tent with their situation, love their
homes and families, and believe in the
great Montezuma as their spiritual de-
livercr. This tribe has cost our Govern
ment Int little, and, with care, educa-
ton, protection and religious training,
will doubtless become useful people

J1PhN.S NATIONAL FLOWER.

The cherry blossom is the national
flower of Japan, as the rose is of En-
gland, the lily of France. the thistle Of
Scotland, and the shamrock OF Ireland.
GIN the Mikado's flags, papers and car
riages, and ON the soldiers caps and uni
form, you will zee the open chrysanthe-
mum. But the flower Of the people and
the nation is the flower Of the blossom
ing cherry-tree. The Japanese cultivate
all over Japan, by the millions, the SAX
IRA tree, which is valued only for the
beauty of its blossoms. From an entire
tree you could not get ripe cherries
enough to make pie /; but the blossoms
are massed together on the boughs like
clouds, and the blooms are often as large
as q rose.
Picnics in Japan are called "Going ia
see the flowers" In juno, millions Of
the people 60 out to sing and sport and
laugh and play under the cherry trees, or
to catch "the STOW showers that do not
fall from the skies" There are tens Of
thousands Of stanzas Of poetry about the
cherry tree. Some OF the people become
so enchanted with the lovely blossoms
under them As to even worship the fl
nous old trees.

SOME interesting particulars are pub
lished respecting the printing trade in
Constantinople, where there are 400 let
terpress and photographic printing offices
and 200 photographic establishments.
Hardly ten of them are conducted by
practical men, consequently tho greater
portion Of the work turned out is misera-
bic from . typographical point Of view.
Larger consumers, therefore, order their
requirements from abroad There ap-
pear thirty-eight daily papers, Of which
fifteen arc printed in Turkish. ten in
Armenian, eight in Greek, and five in
French. Numerous weekly and monthly
journals are also puhlA1ed.. Tksaatg@t
printing office is that Of Pallamary; next
to it is that of the 7*rqaiA A Greek
daily paper has the hrgest q 900 'circu-
lation. No other paper reaches that
number. 1t is interesting 10 learn that
hardly one-third Of the compositors en-
ployed in the printing Offices Of Constan-
tinople have learned their business, .
fact which explains the low wages paid,
from 60 to 100 piastres (l0s. to 25s.) per
week on newspapers. 1t is useless for
compositors to seek employment in the
Turkish capital unless they are acquaint-
ed with Italian, French. Turkish on
