Givo Your VITO Il Vacation

She needs one. Little cares arc hard :.
CT to be born than great responsibilities;
and she has many more little cares than
her husband, and sometimes as great re-
sp0nsibilities. Who needs a vacation if
she does notp And she cannot get it at
home. The more quiet and rcstful the
home is to you, the more evidence that
it Is care, if not burden, to her. If
you sec no friction, it IS because she is
50 skllful an engineer. If You see no
machinery, it is because she makes it
run 50 smoothly.
1t Is true that it is always difficult to
make wife and mother take q yaca-
ton. The better the wife and mother
she is, the greater Is tho difficulty. She
thinks that no one can take care Of tho
house as she can. And she is right.
She is sure that no man can take her
place In the care OF the children. Right
again. Nevertheless, she needs her
vacation; and she will be better
housekeeper and better mother for a
weeks rest. The house will value her
more for a weeks abdication Of her
throne. Her children will appreciate
hcr better for q weeks laying down of
her scepter. Is she sometimes irritablep
She is tired. Is she sometimes depress-
ed and gloomyp She is over worked
and over-worried. Send her off, or
take her off, where she can sleep With
out one ear open to hear the children
uneasily tossing in their sleep; where
she can sit down to a table that will
present some unexpected dishes to her;
where her night will be without cares.
Such vacation will take the tired look
out Of her eyes and put the old light
back again; 1t will give the ripping
merriment Of girlhood to her laugh,
elasticity to her step, color to her cheek.
Woman's g power of recuperation is won-
derful, If it has half chance. Try the
experiment. Why not2

THE INCONSISTENT HEART,

The valley was bathed in glory this morn
ing,
For high o'or the mountain tops hung ,h'
bright sun;
The fragrant winds bore the notes of til,
songsters
In through my easement, in soft liquid runs
But out In the garden some one was hum
ming
A plaintive strain of the NIiserere;
And hid my face in my downy pillow.
While my heart rc-cchoed the minor key.
Down DER the heather, where gowans wer,
walked. while the bells rang Il musical
The harebells blossomed; this world was al
The ,,sd brooklets were purling musica
But my wayward heart went back to the
morning,
To the quivering voice and the minor KEY
The wonderful depths OF tho passionate
sorrow
And the wailing cry of the Miscrcrc.
still heard the birds with their clcar-voicet
music,
And the warm sun still smiled with radi
ant light;
The soft blue mists that the mountain ell
shroudeu
Like a heecy veil hid the cliffs from my
sight,
All the world was as fair as IL dream OF
heaven
And my life was as sweet as a life could be
But somehow my wayward heart kept re-
peating
The sorrowful wall of the Misercrc.

Tho Chinese in New York,

"llow many Chinese are there in
New York" asked a reporter of an Of
ficer Of the Chinese Consulate recently
established here.
I'VE are now engaged in making a
list of Chinese in New York, which
will tell the exact number. At present
L can only say that we estimate the
number at three thousand"
~ care there any women among them?,
81 am told that one Chinese woman
lives here, somewhere on Sixth avenue.
on know that most if not all of the
men come here from San Francisco
Ihls trip, with the ocean voyage tc
California, is rather expensive to the
average Chinaman, and would be more
SO, OF course, If he brought his family
BESIDES, the larger number expect tc
return to China"
"What are the occupations of these
three thousand?"
"Most of them are laundrymen, some
clgar-makers and the rest petty mer
chants. There is, however, Il firm in
Broadway, opposite Astor Place, which
imports bric-a-brac, &c. There are nc
Chinese importers Of teas that I know
off,
"Where do they get the names OF
Lee 'Sing,' Lung &c2" pursued
the reporter.
"Oh those simply represent certain
Chinese sounds. can give you a curl.
Gus fact or two about their names
One Is that, by an old custom in China,
man has one name in busines!
and another in his private life. The
other fact is that their names CORES
ponding to the English John, Tom, SC,
follow, not precede the family name
Some, however, have adopted thu
English way"
"How much intercourse Is there be
tween the Chinese and japanese herep'
"None whatever. You may BIZ
interested in learning that though thu
two nations use the same character.
for writing, one cannot understand the
spoken language Of the other. The
Japanese here number about fou1
hundred"
us not the language very difficult tc
acquire2"
Extremely so, there being, for in

or joss-houses here?"

Phenomenal Horse -FIesb.

The sporting fraternity at Indiana.
polls is in ferment over a new
Indiana horse that promises to out
trot any Hoosier horse-aesh on the
track; in fact. has already done
so. This new and valuable animal
is six year old brown stallion, and he
comes from Noblesville. His owner,
John Martin, is a wagon-smith of that
place, and suddenly fiGds himself in the
possession OF fortune. A few days
ago y. Il. Brown, of this city, saw the
horse trot and offered five thousand dol
lars cash for him. It was the first time
that the owner realized that he had the
pest horse on the Indiana turf, but he

0Oo and now $4,000 have been planked
Gown III vain before Martins eyes. Tho
history and training OF the horse will
aimosG cause a revolution in the iockey
business. Six years ago Martin reluct-
anIly accepted an old marc in pay for
some work done. From this unpromis-
ing nag the colt III question was foaled,
hlartln sold the mare for 500, and for
seVeral years has been driving the colt
TO buggy III his daily business. All
TINS While he stabbed the animal in a
Iickety Old shed, and in many ways
showed that he did not know what sort
OF oiled lightning he was stabling. A
lew turns, privately, on a race track led
Martin to believe that he might venture
TO enter county fair with some promise
or success; but when he applied at No
Dlesvllle and elsewhere he was hooted
out. Last week he was admitted to q
county fair i'll northern Indiana. and to
eVeryDody's surprise captured tie prize
with case. Last week, there being no.
body to enter tho Nobesville race.
Martin was told that if he could beat
1,30 with his old brute he might have
the stake. Without any preparation lie
droVe into the ring and accomplished a
mile in 2,24.
iorscmen say this phenomenal horse
can make 2, l6 without an effort. Par
ties III this city already have II S5. 600
bet that lie will beat IIare's Mambrino
with Il ZIG record--at the coming
Louisville races. Martin has been MS,

aoupClul IL he ever was spongcd or pet
Gco or Jockeyed. When heated he has
oeen tied up in Il fence corner and left
TO cool off, and yet has tlourished, and
to-day IS believed to be the best horse in
Indiana. DR.. Brown, learning the his.
tory OF the horse, went up to Mobiles
vllie, hunted out the old mare which
1oaled the horse, bought her for S1OO.
and two days later, on the reputation Of
her son, sold her for 5000.
