The Bridal Package.

Nearly every bridal couple that comes
to Washington-and Washington is the
national bridal Mecca-visits the treas
ury vaults. The young and invariably
interesting couple want to closely In
spect Uncle Sans plentiful shekels.
When they enter the vault the man In
charge of it, after o few preliminary
words of explanation, hands down a
package Of notes from shelf and tells
the bride to take it in her hands. He
then explains that this package con-
tains $50, 900, 600 in United States treas
ury notes. The young lady is delighted
to be able to go away and say that she
has had SO much money in her own
hands. She Is just too utterly pleased.
The groom also wants to handle the
package. They are further told that
the notes are all of the denomination Of
Sic, 900. This constitutes what is known
as the "bridal package" Young mar
ried tourists, having heard of this pack
age, often ask to handle it just as soon
as they enter the vaults. This is all
very pretty. But it is fraud On the
young people. The treasury here does
not hold that amount OF money. The
bulk of the money is In the treas
ury at New York. That bridal pack
age is gay deceiyer. It does contain,
however, notes of the denomination of
$4,000, which would, in the aggregate,
represent 800, 1000, 900 if they were only
signed. But they are worth no more IN
reality than the paper on which they
are printed, being minus the necessary
signatures Washington letter.

useful in the vulgar sense. Learn tie
economy of the kitchen, the good and
bad qualities of every common article of
food, and the simplest and best modes
of their preparation; help poor families
in their cooking, show them how to make
as much of everything as possible, and
how to make little niceties coaxing and
tempting them into tidy and pretty ways,
and pleading for well-folded table-cloths,
however coarse, and for a flower or two
out of the garden to strew on them.
One should, at the end of every day, be
able to say, as proudly as any peasant,
that she has not eaten the bread OF
idleness. Get quit of the absurd idea
that Heaven will interfere to correct
great errors, while allowing its laws to
take their own course In Furnishing small
ones. Ii food is carelessly prepared no
one expects Providence to make it palat-
able; neither if. through years of folly,
you misguide your own life, need you
expect divine interference to bring
around everything at last for the best.
I tell you, positively, the world is not
so constituted. The consequences of
great mistakes are just as sure as those
of small ones, and the happiness OF your
whole life and of all the lives over which
you have power, depends as literally on
your common sense and discretion as
the excellence and order of a day"

Miss Cushman's Intrepid Spirit.

The following anecdote illustrates
Charlotte CushmaD's decision and nerve.
At the National Theater, Boston, dur
ing the season of 1S51-52, as she was
playing Romeo to the Juliet of Miss An
derton, in the midst of one of the most
romantic passages between the lovers,
some person in the house sneezed in
such manner as to attract the attention
of the whole audience, and every one
knew that the sneeze was artificial and
derisive Miss CEshman instantly
stopped the dialogue, and led Miss An
derton off the stage as cavalier might
lead lady from place where an insult
had been offered her. She then returned
to the footlights and said in clear,
firm voice: ''Some man must put that
person out, or shall be obliged to do it
myself" The fellow was taken away !;
the audience rose en- masse and gave
three cheers for Miss Cushman, who re-
called her companion, and proceeded
with the play as if nothing had hap
pened.

Bees. Mice, Cats and Flowers.

Many of our orchidaceous plants alb
solutely require the visits Of moths to
remove their pollen masses, and thus to
fertilize them. have also reason to be.
heve that humble-bees are indispensa-
ble to the fertilization of the heartsease
(viola tricolor), for other bees do not
visit this flower. From experiments,
which 1 have lately tried, have found
that the visits Of bees are necessary for
the fertilization OF some kinds Of clover;
but humble bees alone visit the red
clover (trifoiium pratense), as other
bees cannot reach the nectar. Hence I
have very little doubt that, if the whole
genus of humble-bees became extinct or
very rare in England, the heartsease
and clover would become very rare or
wholly disappear. The number of
humble-bees Id any district depends in
great degree upon the number of field
mice, which destroy their combs and
nests; and Mr.. Fl. Newman, who has
long attended to the habits of humble
bees, believes that "more than two
thirds of them are thus destroyed all
over England" Now the number q
mice is largely dependent, IS every one
knows, on the number Of cats, and Mr..
Newman says: "Near villages and
small towns [ have found the nests of
humble-bees more numerous than else
where, which I attribute to the number
Of cats that destroy the MICE" Hence
It is quite credible that the presence of
feline animals in large numbers in a dis
trict might determine, through the In.
tervention first Of mice and then of
bees, the frequency of certain flowers in
that district !-Dor,Uin.

A Mutin0us Sepoy's Fate i'm 1872.

In Capt. Williams &c Historical Ac-
count of the Rise and Progress of the
Bengal Native Infantry" published by
John Murray, of London, in 1917, on
page 143 there is an account given of the
murder of Capt Richard Ewens in 1772.
His battalion q, Tenth 3. I. NJ was in
November Of that year sent to join Capt.
Camac at Ramgur. and on the day after
its arrival the latter officer inspected it.
During the inspection one of the Sepoys
standing within two yards of Capt. Ew-
ems leveled his piece and shot that off.
Ger dead Says the historian "On
Capt. Ewens' falling the battalion in
stantly broke and rushed forward to
avenge his death, but Capt Camac, wita
great presence Of mind, ordered them to
return to their ranks, and that ample
Justice should be done. He immediate
ly sent one OF his officers to bring down
his own battalion (tne Twenty -fourth),
and on its arrival he ordered drum
head general court-martial to try the
murderer, who sentenced him to be
drawn asunder by tattoos. The horses
being fastened to his limbs, many at
tempts were made to draw them from
the body, but without effect, and then
the Sepoys were allowed to put him to
death, which they did with their swords. u

What Is Fruit2

It Is very natural for editors to write
about such subjects as come up In con-
versation, or the things he comes in con-
tact with in his intercourse with the
world. Lately the agricultural editor at
his boarding house heard friend make
a statement that the pie being served was
made of fruit. Another disputed the
position by stating that it was made of
the stalks of rhubarb, or pie-plant. OF
course, Webster was referred to, to set
tie the dispute, when one of the many
folhes of that Yankee lexicon was dis
covered. The main definition of fruit is
given as Whatever the earth produces
for the nourishment of animal, or for
clothing or profit. Among the fruits of
the earth are included not only corn of
all kinds, but grass. cotton, fax, grapes,
and all cultivated plants" etc. So ii
was settled in council that pie plant Is
fruit. .-Des Mosnes Register

DeYoured bY a Sueurnyu.

A very unpleasant account is given by
a Brazilian paper Of the proceedings Of
a huge water snake called the 'ssucu-
ruyu," which is to be found IN some of
the rivers of Brazil. An incident occurred
on the banks of the Rio Arassuahy,
owing to the voracity of one of these
reptiles. A slave, with some companions,
was fishing with a net in the river, when
he was suddenly seized by sucuruyu,
and, in spite of his resistance, was
dragged under the waterin the presence of
the horriied spectators. he never ap-
peared again, and no doubt is enter
tanned that he was swallowed by the
sucuruyu, who made an effort with his
hinder coils to carry off at the same
time another Of the fishing party. It ie

Mrs. Laura Dainty was reading, out
in Missouri, and at one of the recep-
tions whieh frequently follow her read
ings gentleman was present who was
able to talk horse very fluently, but
couldn't talk anything else. Not being
able to talk much horse, the little lady
was puzzled how to entertain this guest,

Recent Legal Decisions.

A, who was in the employment of B,
bargained with him for the purchase of
a horse which B owned and kept ON his
farm, the price to be paid from wages
to be earned by A. The horse remained
on the farm under the care of A, who
paid for his forage and who claimed
ownership of the animal. An attach
ment against B was levied on the horse,
and A brought an action to recover him
as his property, Hull VS.. Sigsworth. In
January the Supreme Court of Errors of
Connecticut decided in favcr of the at
taching creditor. Judge Pardee, in the
opinion, said: ''There was no visible
change in the possession of the horse,
and the declarations of ownership made
by A, including those made at the time
of the attachment, must go for nothing,
because the apparently-unchanged own
ership by b was constant denial OF
their truth, and, as matter of law, bore
them down.
