the advertisement of country drug
store for fullness and variety. In
every conceivable form, and after every
model under the sun some device is
here formed to set Offsoaps, perfumery

stores. Like SOlOmOn's Temple, the
sound of the hammer is not heard
upon the work; not nails, nor pins, nor
glue hold any of the forms in shape;
but by the most exact nOtching and
fitting each part couples with its fell
low and in the completed form is as
indestructable us a hoopskirt. Mr.. H
BOgardus is the presideng genius in
this department, and so far as we can
learn, the only devise he has not been
called upon to design, is suitable
cage for the prisoners a Georgetown.

AUTUMN LEAVES. Only once in
many years is the Peninsula a witness
to such gorgeous display of autumnal
beauty as decks her forests and fruit
trees this fall. Without frost, every
tree and vine and shrub has matured
its wood and ripened its leaves with
the brightest of cOlOrs. From many
peach orchards but few leaves have
yet fallen, but with a rich purple
brightness they proclaim that so jar as
eIch of them can bear witness, the par
ticular bud over which each has stood
sentry is in a hopeful state for fruit
next August. Against every back
ground the mingled foliage of forest
and fruit tree, of vine and shrub gives
a rich setting to these glorious October
DAYS. The brightest of red, yellow,
crimson and light green in the maple;
the purple and green in the yellow
gum the bright crimson branch in
an ocean of green in the black gum;
the rich gray Of ripeness in the will

and the Virginia creeper extending
from the lOwly growth of the former
to the tops of the highest trees, where
the latter climbs; the dark green of !
the pine and the darker green of the /
cedar; the yellow of the saSsafras, and |
the varied cOlOrs of the oak, 1.-The scar

mon and hickory all proclaim that in
1888 each leaf did its whole duty and
was crowned with glory.
