In regard TO contagion, DIR. Fitch, in his

But, note the inconsistency, when, after
quoting several instances where cohabitation

None of them did me any good until l used

Descending the broken stairs, I put a
hand on the unwilling door. 1t yielded, and
a curious interior was revealed 1t was a
little room, dinly lighted, whose only furni-
ture consisted of coffins, and around one OF
them that rested upon trestles were three SOL
diers. There were only four sound arms and
five legs to divide among them. They had

New York Cor Troy Times.1
The changes Of life, however, were soon
felt in Greeley's little circle. Miss Fuller
went to Italy and witnessed the capture of
Rome by the French, while Greeley's family
was visited by cholera, which carried off that
lovely boy. Greeley thus mentioned this be-
reavement in one of his letters to his former
contributor: "Ah, Margaret, the world is
growing dark around lis. You mourn that
Rome has fallen; we mourn, for Pickle is
dead" Greeley then abandoned this
blighted spot and as the Harlem road
had been sufficiently extended he
bought in 1858 a building lot just large enough
for house, being determined to test the
place before charging his purchase. Finding
it both convenient and healthy, be gradually

original one-eighth of an acre it included
seventy eight acres being the largest farm
ever worked by New York editor. Most of
Greeley's improvements were chimerical. He
built 4 dam, for instance, in order to supply
the house wi h water After 81 600 had been
thus invested the dam broke and the scheme
was abandoned. Sixty thousand dollars
were invested in improvements and yet the
farm to-day is not worth one third of that
sum.

The seductive mince pie may still
be innocently eaten by the strictest
temperance man or woman, even
though the cook may have favored
the material with enough brandy to
to make her head swim. A New
York chemist of good standing proffes-
sionally declares that "any school-boy
"who has learned the process of the
manufacture of alcohol can easily es-
''tablish the fact that no alcohol can
possibly remain in a pie which has
''been baked" The evaporating tenn
perature of alcohol, he explains, is a
little lower than the boiling point OF
water, while the baking temperature
of an oven is much higher than the
boiling point of water, and hence it is
absolutely impossible for any alcohol
to remain in pastry when thoroughly
baked. He adds that the flavor ofliq-
uor in branded pies is derived from
certain of the essential oils, which are
not injurious and not intoxicating. At
ter all, it is question which is the
most harmful, even if the chemists
theory be untenable the brandy or
the pie.-Winona Republican.

THE CHEAP PRESS,
The New York Times and Ne wspaper
Evolution.
New York Evening Post.l

New York Evening Postl
The reduction in price of The Daily Times
from cents to , cents per copy is the first
decided symptom in American journalism Of
a movement which had its beginning in the
penny press of London dozen years ago
The abolition of the stamp duty and the
cheapening Of the cost of white paper made
it possible for publishers in Great Britain to
sell newspaper of large size and of a high
standard of ability at a price the equivalent
of cents in our money. The battle b tween
the high priced and the low-priced papers in
London has been decided, as was inevitable
if the low-iriced ones should survive the
perils of infancy, i'll favor of the latter. All
the high priced newspapers of London except
The Times have been driven one by one to
follow the example of The Daily Telegraph
by reducing their price to l penny. The
Times has held out so far, but at such cost in
the way Of circulation that it has latterly
adopted the cxpcd;ent of publishing small
sheet, called The Summar.j, at the price Of a
half-penny, in order to meet the intolerable
competition of The Telegraph, Standard, and
Daily News. The Summary is condensation
of the news and editorials of The Times, pub
lished at oue-sixth of the price Of The Times
itself; and it remains to be seen whether it
will have the effect intended by its inventors
of driving the penny papers out of the field,
or whether it will complete the work which
the penny press has begun, of driving The
Times out of the field. Such contests are
always slow in producing their final results.
1t would not be surprising if the result in this
case were a reduction in the price of The
Times to penny, and the suppression of its
subordinate, Tho Summary.
The course of English journalism has been
watched with the deepest interest by all pub
fishers Of newspapers in America ard the
conviction has beeu gaining ground that they
must sooner or later follow suit The Sun
took up the same line of battle i'll New York
when it began to give its readers, in con-
,lensed but methodical and ineligible shape,
altthe news of the day, together with careful
editorial treatment, for the price of 2 cents.
It's success forced The Herald few years
ago to reduce its price from 4 cents
to tires. Since that time new crop Of
cheap papers has come up-the Morning
Journal, The Star. and Truth Il cent. and
The World has lowered its price, first to 8
and latterly to 2 cents. The World being
u member of the Associated Press, was
enabled to publish all the important news of
the day at price one third less than that of
The Herald, and at one-half the price charged
by The Times and The Tribune. 1t was not,
we presume, the competition of The World
that decided The Times to reduce its price,
but rather the whole concatenation of cir
cunlstances and the general drift of journal
lsln in England and America.

the outside. ] say, take these millions Of
dollars that are thrown away on dead walls
for the diversion of billygoats and small
boys annually and pay the legitimate actor
instead of the bill-poster. Why can not a
legitimate show be run in this country as it is
on the continent or in the provincial towns OF
tho British empires 1t can be, and it must,
sooner or later. For the people are already
coming to see pretty clearly that the bigger
the bills the smaller the play.
And this is the remedy advise: Some
years ago, when in Brazil, an American show
opened with flaming posters at the capital
"Where is the man who plays the scene
on the yellow billF'
"Oh! wal, that man he's SICK" drawled the
American.
Produce your DOCTORS certificate or return
the people their money" replied the magis
trate; "and consider yourself under arrest
for obtaining money under false pretenses."
This is the law and the enforcement of it in
Brazil
And lay it down as the law here, that il
any one is induced to go to any theatre by
the bills, and does not find in that theatre all
that is advertised on the bills, he can demand
and must receive back his money any time
And not only that, but it is his right, his
duty, to have the swindling manager arrested
and punished for obtaining money under
false pretenses This is remedy earnestly
recommend

and currency-with Buckner at the
head, Brumn, one of the two green

said of the committee on coinage, head

chievous bill of nearly six years ago
should be one of the first duties ofcon-
gress. Such concessions to blatant

A New Use Of the Electric Motor.
[Demorests Monthly.l

Thousands of experiments are now under
way to develop the capabilities of electricity
as a motive power. Its latest application is
on a pleasure launch on the river Thames,
in England. The boat is forty feet long and
of good beam. 1t is propelled by screw
driven by Siemans motor and the Sellon-
Volckmar accumulators. There were twenty
one persons on the boat, and about eight
miles an hour was made. The expense is
about the same IS that Of steam, and the
weight Of the machinery is about
the same, but the advantage is
in the very small space taken up
by the accumulators. A twenty foot electric
launch will allow as much room for passen.
gers or freight as thirty-foot steam launch.
Then it is the very perfection Of pleasure
boat. There is no heat, smoke, dust, steam,
no smell of oil, and no noise Of any kind.
This Thames launch will run for six hours,
when the accumulators must be charged
afresh for further journey. The pleasure
yachts of the future will not be propelled by
sails or steam, but by this new motor. The
close Of the nineteenth century may be called
the age of steam, but the beginning of the
twentieth promises to usher in the reign of
electricity, and perhaps of even more power

Not the Things by Which They Live
rBurdette in Cincinnati Enuuirer1


It is common error, wise men inf orm us,
to suppose that Neapolitans eat little else than
nacaroni. Not one-fifth Of the population
ever taste it, save on the Sabbath day. We
never supposed they did eat much of it. All!
no. They make it. Hence they avoid it as
food. You never catch the druggist drink
ing fruit sirups with his soda water. He
makes 'em himself. Do you ever see
the confectioner nibbling candys Not he;
he sells it. Does not the barkeeper
ever courteously but firmly decline to
partake with his patrons the liquids which
be sets forth for their refreshment! He
knows too much, and when he is athirst he
sucks a real lemon Or drinks cold water.
Seeketh the physician unto himself when the
pangs of sickness get hold upon him? Does
lawyer believe all that he tells jury is
eternal and immutable truths If he does he
will believe anything. Does the man who
is now in hold the same views on civil-service
reform that he entertained while he was yet
outa OF verify, brethren, those things Of
which men make their trade are not the
things by which they live. Not by jugful.
