with the young man who practices down

AdjOnrning the Senate.

David Davis has q way of his own in
running the Senate. Recently, when
the Senate was in executive session, his
hour for eating, which is between five
and six o'clock, arrived - and there
seemed to be no disposition upon the
part of the Senate to adjourn. The old
Judge became very impatient and finally
arose and fixed his eye upon Senator
Morgan, Of Alabama, as much as to say
to him, "Move to adjourn" The
Senator, however, did not take the hint.
The judge stood it as long as he could,
and in the midst of a haraneue from
MI. Hoar, said: "The Senator from
Alabama moves that the Senate adjourn.
All those in favor of that motion will
say aye those opposed nay The ayes
have it and the Senate stands adjourned
until tomorrow" Mr.. Morgan in a
low tone Of voice said to Senator
Grover, who was on his right, "It's a
lie, l never said word" But it made
no difference to the Judge. He had
adjourned.
On another occasion when the Senate
was in open session his time came for
refreshing the inner-man, and there an.
peared to be no desire upon the part
OF the Senate to adjourn. Seeing the
Senator, from Florida, as he thought,
making an effort to get the floor, which
meant at least two hours more, the old
Judge rose to his feet and said, "If
there is no further business before the
Senate motion 10 adjourn is in order.
The Senator from Florida, MIR. Call.
moves that the Senate adjourn. The
Senate stands adjourned until to.mor-
row." Mr.. Gall looked like he had
been sent for and couldn't go. The
Judge is fast proving himself q humor.

Rec0nciIed.

A rich farmer and his wife living near
Walnut Hill. H., after dwelling to-
gether in unity for forty years and be-
coming responsible for no fewer than
thirteen children, suddenly came to the
surprising conclusion that their tempers
were incompatible, and accordingly
separated. The wife then brought q
suit for divorce, which came ON for trial
at Mt. Vernon. The lawyers on both
sides during the dinner recess entered
into most creditable agreement to
reconcile the aged couple, il it were
possible, and the Judge cordially offered
to assist them. During the afternoon
session each made conciliatory speech,
affirming that his client was susceptible
to those kindly sentiments which adorn
humanity, and the judge followed with
q pathetic admonition. At this point
the husband Strengthened himself in his
chair and looked toward his wife; she
in turn threw magnetic glance at him;
they both rose, clasped hands, received
the congratulations Of the court, and in
two minutes Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas A.
Moore were driving toward Walnut Hill
at pace which astonished the family

Lemon Culture IN Florida.

Florida lemons have net generally
found favor in Eastern markets. owing
to their large, thick skins and inferior
who believed the soil OF Florida adapted
for the culture Of that fruit, as we'll as
oranges, have been experimenting with
lemon seedlings impc.ted from Sicily
and Messina, and plaLted them, it is
claimed, with perfect success. A writer
from Lake Poinsett says:
The lemon produced had much Of
the size of the old Flor ida fruit, but
was skinned, Of bright golden color,
and juicy beyond comparison. They at
once took rank in market as the best
manded premium. Sales are reported
for certain months Of last season at
S12,25 a box Of 160 lemons. A peou-
liar fact OF lemcn culture is that the
imported lemon cannot be raised in
Florida from the seed. Any seed will
do for the stump, but to produce the
perfect fruit the stump must be bgdded
fro.. tlav tirnpurteu tree. Inc auVant-
ages of lemons over oranges are that
the trees bear sooner f; they bear larger
crops, the fruit ripening continually
for eigt m onths, instead OF few
months as is the case with the orange.
Another advantage is that the season is
longer than the orange, and the oppor-
tunity for marketing at good figures
better.
Since the culture Of the lemon has
become general the FloridIans have
learned the method Of preparing the
fruit for the market. The eyenness Of
size so notable in box OF foreign
lemons is secured by tho use of ring
or 'sizer.' On the Mediterranean. lemons
are never left on the tree until they get
their color. An attendant goes to each
tree, passes ring over each lemon, AMI
when it fits the ring it is clipped and
put in packing house, where tue
bright yellow color is given them by
subjecting them to fumes of sulphur, A
packing house OF this sort has been Cd
tabiished by Mr.. Bean at jackson.
vile. He buys the lemons when green
at about cent and half each, gives
them the artificial coloring, and sells
them for handsome advance.

A Story of Cairo.

A great scandal occurs to my mind,
says q writer in All the Year Round, as
happening in Cairo in 1880. Scheikh
Hamuda Berda lived in quarter Of T. q
town less fashionable than IS generally
affected by wealthy saints who have
gained recognition. With modest as
surance he declared that Allah had per-
sonally granted him to cure all diseases.
BY the hand OF Mahomet himself, the
Merciful One confded to.him drugs and
lotions which restored the sight, res
placed an amputated limb, and so on.
As for mere pains and aches, he removed
them OF word. During many years
persons profited by his supernatural
skill, but he specially laid himself out
for female patients. In later times the
good man found his practice so large
that he could no longer attend poor
people. From every part of Egypt,
Arabia and Syria, wealthy ladies came
they brought handsome present.
One day, toward the middle OF last
year, the young wife of Izzet Bey, a
colonel in the Egyptian service, pro.
posed to visit him for an affection OF
the eyes. The colonel sent her with a
proper retinue of attendants, who re.
turned, know not why, after deposit.
ing their mistress at the door Of Hamu.
da Berda. She entered with favorit,
slave, but never came out again. For
some days her husband was not alarmed,
since surgical operations demand GER
tain time. Anxious at length, he called
upon the Scheikh, whose manner was
not reassuring. He protts sted that the
young woman had left on the evening
Of her arrival, cured. The colonel was
not satisfied. He appealed to the po-
lice, and they searched the dwelling
minutely. 1 presume that Izzet Bey
was man of influence. Nothing was
found in the sanity house, but a very
foul and malodorous we'll in the garden
drew their notice. Removing the cover
they found the corpses of the young
woman and her slave among snen a
mass OF putrld bones as showed that
Wholesale murder had been going on
for years. Brought before the cadi,
the saint confessed his habit OF strang-
ling every woman who came to con
suit him, il her iewelry seemed worth
the trouble. Such hideous stories now
and then shock the grave, dumb pop.
ulation Of the East.

CAM Cook as Mother Did.

How many a young wife's heart is saddened
and happiness scattered because she cannot
"cook as mother did" 1t is strange, sadly
strange, and vet we all know it is true. How
many q time has the tender-hearted reporter
felt his soul bursting with grief as he told the
narrowing story of some poor suffering woman,
whose cheerful sunshine had turned to dismal
darkness Just because she could not "cook as
mother did," And how it delights the heart
Of the reporter when he chances to hear OF
enc devoted young wife who is rescued from
the gloomy fate of so many, in manner SO
simple and easy that the only wonder Is that
all are not saved. This one to whom he now
refers was led blHshing and blooming bride,
but few short weeks ago, to the altar by one
Of our most promising and prominent young
men. He promised to do everything in his
power to make her happy, but in an evil hour
he made the dangerous discovery that she
could not "cook as mother did" he told hei
20, and from that hour the life-light Of happi-
ness began to die out in her once radiant eyes
The bloom that put to shame the fancied per
lection of the rose departed from her cheek,
the voice that welcomed him to happy heart
aud home grew silent as the grave, and the
young husband saw that something must be
done soon. He asked the sorrowful wife why
she was SO sad, and she told him because she
could not 'cook as his mother did" but If she
had Royal Baking Powder he could say so nc
longer. Liks sensible fe low, he ordered a
dozen boxes at once, and now he says he is
afraid that his wife will raise the roof off the
house some day, but he don't care, for she is
happy
