Already the Anti-Monoply move
ment has proved . practical failure in
some States, and especially 60 in New
York; and it has also been shown
that with all the stir that has been
made the movement shows no strength
numerically We stated the truth of
the matter LAST week in saying sub
stantially that while the people are
heartily in favor ofthe principles en-
unciated they have been so often
deceived by pretended reformers
whose only object was the advance
ment Of personal ambition that they
propose to consider the ground well
before they lend their influence and
their votes to fresh organization,
and even though they should become
convinced Of the necessity of the
principles of the nti-Monopolists
being put into practice they will not
tear themselves away from the old
parties to assist in the work. These
principles must be embraced by the
latter else they will never be enforced
and if the sentiment should continue
to grow, why can't the old parties be
dictated to much easier than starting
a new party to do the work? We
have observed enough already to sat.l
isfy US that personal ends are being
sought by some Of the leaders Of the
new movement, and until they can
show that their hands are clean and
free from selfish schemes they will
arouse but little enthusiasm among
the masses Of the people who are
weary Of grinding axes for politicians
and men who have no real sympathy
for them.
81 Probably the following will prove
interesting in this connection:
TRENTON, N. J., April 2S.-At
the late session of the State Legislature
q tremendous outcry was raised over
certain measures which referred to
Jersey City tt was claimed that
the railroad companies proposed in
these bills to "gobbIe" the entire
water front and lay new tracks at ran
dom over and above the city streets,
to the vast detriment Of the public
interests, and the whole State was
called upon to resent the Outrage"
The anti-monopolists, so-ealled, sue
ceeded in defeating the bills, thus
leaving the vested rights Of the COM
panies as to the water front at the
lmercy Of the mob. Having done
this, what ia, their next step Last

/. I The President has aligned the new
bill to suspend the immigration of
Chinese laborsrs for . period of ten
years. II 10 to be hoped that this
will settle the muehsvexed Chinese
question for time at least. The
bill was drawn with special rsfsrs.ss
to the objections raised BY the Pres.
idsst in his message disapproving the
Arst bill passed by Congress. As it
now stands, the law suspends the i'm.
mierstion Of Chinese laborsrs, whether
skilled or snskilled or employed in
mining. It provides for system Of
certificates, to be issued on the idsn-
tifcation Of Chinese persons now liv-
ing In this country or who may hsre.'
after arrive here under provisions Of
che law authorizing them to come.
The naturalization Of ell Chinese is
forbidden. Various fnes
are imposed upon the masters of ves,
sells who shall bring unauthorized
Chinese persons into this country,
and upon any person who shall forge,
alter, or make fraudulent use of the
certificates to be issued to Chinese
who are allowed residence in the
United States. The bill as it has be-
come law does not infringe upon
any Of the rights Of China as defined
in existing treaties, The people Of
California will probably be satisfied
with all its features, unless they may
object to the shortness of the term
during which immigration is to be
suspended.

Since the slaughter of cattle in this
country for shipment TO Europe has become
n business, an industry has been establish
ed in Middlctown, Conn. for the purpose
of working up the large bones which arc
cut on with the feet. The bones are saw
ed up by machines particularly adapted to
the purpose, the solid portions are made
into buttons and knife-handles, the knuck-
lejoints ground up, and with the duet
from the saws, sold for n fertilizer, and the
small pieces of the hard bonc %granulated
and used by gun and tool manufacturers
in case-hnrdening. The bones are ascl
while fresh, as they soon begin to color,
and articles made of the stained bone
would not be marketable.
The buttons, when made from the fresh
bone, are winter than ivory, and are sold
under the name of "Sitka ivory" This
single establishment received from New
York during 1880 no less than 100000 OK
shins, and the demand has increased TO
such a extent that the price rose within n
year from sci to 500 per ton; and even Mt
that latter price gives n handsome margin
for the manufacturer.

Don't Waste the Crumbs.

The other morning we happened into a
large city yard to see a humane friend
feeding his "pets,' as he called them. He
was scattering around merely the crumbs
from his table; and it was surprising to
see the number and variety of pets he had
collected, though he had no proprietOrship
in any of them. Quite a flock OF lens and
chickens from adjoining premises came at
his call, as well as pigeons and sparrows,
and all affectionately ayailed themselves
of his bounty, appearing to be the best of
friends with each other, and with their
beneCactor. Our friend seemed to be very
much pleased. with his proteges, and re-
garded this experience as the pleasantest
of the day, next to his family associations.
| The incident will furnish a hin to other
families which should be remembered. In
all parts of the city and country there are
bright-eyed birds, whose close friendship
may be cultivated in a similar inexpensive
manner. The crumbs from n breakfast
table will furnish a sufficient meal for q
good many of the little busy sparrows that
now live in our streets and parks. There
is q natural pleasure experienced in salts
flying the wants of living creatures, and
especially in feeding and taking care of
innocent birds. Often these little acts of
kindness are forgotten or neglected amid
the busy cares of life, but the happiness
they afford to the objects of our care new
er fails to touch n counter chord in the hui
man heart. Ladies, do not burn the
crumbs of bread and meat from your ta-
bles. Think of the little birds and the
work they have to do in rearing their
young and feeding them.

Anew York correspondent says: "While
foreign emigrants are landed in daily
crowds, there is also u vast rush to this
city from all parts of the Union. A large
element in this is composed of country
boys, some of whom are seeking employ
ment, while others have run away from
home and com hither TO spend their mon
ey. Is is estimated that the number of
these runaways average 300 per week.
Theatrical managers are continually beset
with applications from this class, many of
whom are stage struck as soon as they at
tend such places of amusement. A few
days ago, for instance, a youth was arrested
while trying to max an engagement. He
was only fifteen, and had absconded after
robbing his parents, who live in the West.
Such youth generally go to ruin with fear
full rapidity. They become the pals of
pickpockets and other thieves, who give
them away" in order to save themselves,
and this explains the great proportion of
youth among our criminal classes. New
York is ut best q poor place for young peo-
pie, but und sue circumstances the
dangers of the city are fearfully increased"

LITERARY GINdERBREAD woRK.-A
good deal of what passes for literature in

standing and respectabiiity. Every thing
Is delicate" or refined" the hunor is
subtle" the plot is "dextrous,' the char
aeters "ex9uisitely delineated," the moral.
ity sweet or TENDER" and the love
well, the love is something so altogether.
fearful and wonderful, that on the whole,
1t Is more taxing to n sound stomach than
sea-sicRhess. With here and there an ex-
ception, the whole brood of "the youup
novelists shows n decided aversion to
strong, clear thinking and to bodily attack
ing difficult social problems. Their books
art apparently addressed not to masculine
u-en and wOmanly women, but to pretty
men and simpering girls. At a time when
sclontihc and philosophical literature is
characterized as never before by virile
thought and strength Of style, it is a cur.
Gus phenomenon that belles-lettres should

Though il would seem that the people
OF all countries are equally vehement in
the pursuit of this phantom, style, yet in
almost all of them there is u strnnge di-
yersity in opinion rs to what constitutes
Its essence; and every different class, like
the pagan nation, adores it under q differ
emit form. In England an honest citizen
packs up himself, his family, and his style
In a buggy or tim-whisky, and rattles
away to spend Sunday. A baronet requires
a chariot and pair; a lord must needs have
n barouche and four; but n duke, o! n
duke, cannot possibly lumber his style
along under n coach and six, INF halT u
score of footmen. This style has ruined
the peace apd harmony of many n honse-
hold, for no soone do they set up for style,
than all the honest old comfortable a
ceremoHie furniture is discarded, and YOU
stalk cautiously about, amongst the I'M
comfortable splendor of Grccian chairs,
Egyptian tables and Etruscan vases. The
vast Improvement in furniture demands an
increase in the domestic establishment, and
n family that once required two or three
servants for convenience, now employs half
a dozen for style. Bell Bnzen was one of
these patterns of style; and whatever freak
she was seized with, however prcposterous,
was implicitly followed by all who would
be considered as admitted in the stylish
arcana. She was once seized with n within
that tickled the whole court. She could
not lay down to take an afternoon loll but
she must have one servant to scratch her
head, two to tickle her feet, and n fourth
to fan her detachable person while she slum-
bered. The thing took-it became the
rage, and not n sable belle in all Hayti but
what insisted upon being famed and
scratched and tickled in the true imu:rial
style. Sheer not at this picture, my d ost

What the Anclents Thought Of the
Moon.

But the children of these tropic lands
did something more than gaze, speculate
and admire; with supreme patience they
reared lofty towers and grand pyramids,
and invented instruments which have
led us step by step to the transit in
strument, the micrOmeter, and the tele-
scope of to-day. A college of astronomy
was founded by the priesthood of Egypt,
the worship OF the moon growing out of
their frequent use of her pictured or cary
ed image in making their meteorological
announcements to the people rs for in
stance, when the Nile was about to over
flow, warming heralds were sent through
the streets bearing aloft the familiar SYM
bols of the river goddess and n gilded fig
ure of the moon in the phase it would pre-
sent ut the date of the expected rising.
In the course of time, the Specification
was forgotten, the symbol was worshiped,
aud finally what it represented deifed.
The moon no longer appeared TO the I'M
lettered ~populaCe ms merely II brilliant
lamp suspended from n revolving dome, and
shining until extinguished by the waters
of the ocean, but now was looked upon
with awe rs n region of sublime mysteries.
This vcneration of the moon gradually
spread with population to all parts of the
world. We have records of ancient Chi
nthC CctenlOnlhlS IellCS lOunu uIlOnB Drul-
dicnl remains in Western Europe accounts
of astronomical picture-writings of a re-
| Iigious character, and lunar calendars of
gold, silver and stone, discovered in ancient
tcmple-ruins in Mexico, Central and South
America.
Among the buildings devoted TO lunar
worship may he mentioned the wonderful
Temple of Diana, at Ephesus, built at the
combined expense of the nations of Asia.
and the magnificent mansion of the moon,
adjoining the Temple of the Sun, in an

Her Carpet-Beater.

The agent who sold Mrs. Peters the Col
umbia carpet-shaking machine explained
to her the way in which it worked. The
machine consisted of a large wire-gauze
cylinder, in which a carpet could be plac-
ed, and which was revolved at n high
speed by elock-work. Within the cylin-
der was a collection of fails and brushes,
which, when put in motion by its revolu-
ton, thoroughly beat and swept the car
pet. The agent asserted that his machine
would thoroughly remove all dust and ex-
~traneous substances from the texture of
the carpet, would destroy moths and other
deleterious insects, and would impart n
beautiful gloss to the surface of any car
pet, rug or blanket that might be submit
ted to It's action. When he had tested its
effect upon the parlor carpet, Mrs. Peters
was 30 charmed that she bought the ma
chine on the spot, and rs soon ms the
agent had gone she took up the dining
room carpet and put it on the cylinder.
For some reason the machine could not
be made to work, and Mrs. Peters, think
ing that there must be something wrong
took out the carpet and crept into the
cylinder in order TO see If any of the fails
or brushes were out of order. Suddenly,
and without the least warning, the diabol-
ical machine began to work. The cylinder
revolved with tremendous rapidity and
the fails and brushes did their whole duty.
The machine could not be stopped until
the clock-work ran down, and the agent
had warrented it to run twenty minutes.
During that time the machine was busily
occupied in removing all dust n eNtran-
eous substances from the texture of Mrs,
Peters, in detroying all moths and other
deleterious insects, and %imparting n beau
tiful gloss to Mrs. Peters surface. In fact
it did everything the agent said it would
do, but when, four weeks later, Mrs. Peters
was able to rise from her sick-bed, her first
act was 10 hire a colored man to cart the
| machine down to the river and throw il
into the deepest available pool.

Do not let your laundress or washer-wo-
man put clothes into the blueing water
until they ave been well shaken. Iftossed
in while folded as they come through the
wringer they are almost certain to be
streaked with blueing, and although after
repeated washings these streaks will come
out, everyone knows how a~ggravating it IS
to use napkins or handkerchief that show
traces of careless washing
All kinds of berry stains may be re-
moved by pouring boiling water on, or
rather through, the stained spot; hold he
garment over n tub or washbowl, and keep
pouring on the boiling water until The
stain disappears. This must be done before
soap has been used or any attempt made
to wash out the spot. Sweet apple stains
may be removed by dipping the stained
| cloth in the juice of ripe tomatoes, then
lay it in the sunshine for a few hours. 1t
may be necessary TO repeat the operation
| several times. i nave removed mildew by
| covering the spot with n mixture of soft
soap and lemon Juice, and laying the gar
nent in the sunshine. 1t is best not to
| sprinkle clothes at night, when it is hot
| damp, or they are likely to mildew before
morning.
A good rule to follow when making ice
| cream is this: To one quart of rich, sweet
cream allow five eggs, and sugar enough to
sweeten to your taste cook in a pail or
| pan, set in n kettle of hot water. When
| as thick as for boiled custard take it out,
| and when cool flavor it. Ii you put the
| aavoring extract in when the custard is
| hot You will be obliged TO use much more.
| Let it be cold before putting it into the
freezer; You gain no time by hurrying.
Set the custard in the refrigerator or Down
cellar, then pack the ice and salt around
the freezer. Constant stirring is what
| gives the desired fine grain to the frozen
cream. In peach-time quarters Or slices
Of the fresh peaches may be stirred in and
| frozen with the cream. Pineapple is also
used in this way, but cannot be recon-
mended, Us it must be very irdigestible.

EENTILAIIoN-As houses are generally
made it Is better to draw down the upper
sash of a window, for the reason that the
warmest mir, particularly during the winter,
collects near the ceiling, and injurious mat
tcrs are carried up into it from the door.
Drawing down the sash will afford a double
means of yentilation-permitting the warm
and noxious air at the top TO escape and
the outer air to enter at the bottom of the
saSh through the lower me. When the
weather is cold it is not necessary thatth
upper sash be lowered much an inch or
two would be sufficient for a room of the
average size-that is, fourteen or fifteen
feet square. A room which is used for the
general assembling Of the family, what is
called the living room, should not be less
than that in dimensions.
