The World Of Agriculture.

The Agricultural World, one of
the best, II not the best iaI m papers
of its class, is making a great sue
cess OF the plan inaugurated by Its
editor a few years ago. This plan is
nothing less Than the giving of ex-
haustive articles by the best writer's
on agriculture in all the countries
of the world The articles from the
different States and Territories of
our own country are particularly in
structive and entertaining. Judge
ParrIsh's articles an "The Farmers
Relation to Law" are alone worth
the price OF the paper. Judge Par
IRISH, who is one of the ablest judges
and lecturers in the West, will soon
leave for the South, with the view OF
supplying the paper with series OF
articles on the agricultural features
of that section This journal also
has a fine household department
which makes it particularly attract

Painfully Embarrassed.

A stranger who got into the Union
Depot yards yesterday while trying to
find the railroad ferry slip, would have
been run down by one Of the numerous
switch locomotives had not man at
work in the -four sheds seized him and
pulled him off the track. The stranger
was greatly confused and shaken up for
a moment, but after he had taken seat
on the platform and got his breath he
called out:
"My man, that was nobly done! l
expect you can make use of $4,000 in
CASH."
swell, perhaps"
The stranger breathed heavily, rub
bed his arm, and after minute contin-
ued.
"Yes, feel just like making you
present of thousand dollars"
This was a painful reduction from his
FIRST observation, but it wasn't for the
hour-roller to find fault. He brushed
away at the strangers hat to get the
dust off, and as he handed it over he
was informed:
81 think you would know where to
put 500 if you had it, eh?"
81 want nothing. sir. You were in
danger, and pulled you away"
"But shall insist upon your accept
ing sonnet hing. You certainly saved
my life, and shouldn't begrudge s25."
He got out his wallet, which was
crowded with bills, and as he handed
them over he remarked:
"Ten dollars would buy your wife
dress, and every time she wore it you
could think of me.
ayes, sir
The bill came out but was quickly
replaced, and after a minute spent in

at once handed out 81 bill with the
obs ervation:
"Here, my man, go and get you a
new hat, and rest assured shall ever be
grateful to you"
Then it was seen that the laborer was
painfully embarrassed. He shifted
from enc leg to the other, looked up and
down the shed, and when asked the
trouble he replied

A Real Chinese Lady.

Don't be too personal about my
wife," said d. F. Wisler, the brother
of Wes Fisler, the Camden bsse ball
player, yesterday. The speaker had
just returned from China, bringing
with him his Chinese wife. "You say
You have been told that my wife is very
different from the Chinese women one
ordinarily sees in this country. Why,
of course she is. l suppose she is the
first real Chinese lady that has ever
been seen in this country. The high
class Soochow people never leave
China They have been asked to come
to America, and their universal reply
is that there are too many Cantonese
here and the Soochows would be de-
graded by communication with the
Cantonese. Besides, if there are any
Chinese women at all here they are
kept strictly within doors, even by SO
low caste of people rs the CaDto-
nese."
Mrs. Fisler is petite lady, not by
any means resembling the miserable
specimens of Chinese humanity the
people here are accustomed to believe
as capable of nothing but ''washee-
washee" and ''card-plokee" or to con-
duct the orgies of an opium joint. She
has very fair complexion. black eyes,
and jet black hair. She is exceedingly
good humored and full of smiles, but
with all very reticent. and she seems
inclined, Notwithstanding Mr.. Fisler's
protests, to observe the custom of his
country that requires wife to hold her
face sacred from all eyes except those
of her husband. The little lady has
never had her feet subjected to the
barbarous practice of bandaging,
though she possesses pedal and manual
extremities of shape and size that
would fill many young Philadelphia
bellies heart with envy. She was edu-
Gated by an English missionary, is q
Christian, belonging to the Methodist
sect. and speaks the English language
with the same facility as she uses her
own and without foreign accent of any
kind. She might with perfect ease,
be mistaken for a West Indian or q
Spanish lady.-PhitadeLphia Times.

Mr.. Curtis Honor.

In 1876 George William Curtis, just
prior to the meeting of the Cincinnati
Convention, placed himself on record
in the matter of certain charges against
Mr.. Blaine-the same charges, nothing
more, nothing less, that his enemies al
lege against him now. In his paper,
HdIper's Weekly, of May 13, 1876, he
stated that Mr.. Blaine'S explanation of
them was supported by unquestionable
testimony, and that 1t left him lenspotted,
and in his enthusiasm he added: NO
charge that may hereafter be made
against Mr.. Blaine, unaccompanied by
weighty testimony, will deserve any at
tention whatever" We would like to
know what George William Curtis in
1884 thinks of George William Curtis
in 1876, or, to reverse it, we should like
to know what George William Curtis
in 1876 would have thought of George
William Curtis in 1884. If Mr. Curtis
thought Mr.. Blaine was fit and pro-
per candidate to be nominated by the
Cincinnati Convention of 1876, why
to be nominated by the Chicago Con-
vention of 1884? Certainly MT. Curtis
was not coerced in the latter conven-
tion. On 1ho Con1idIy, eilo nloo1 GA
traordinary courtesy was shown to
him, and the resolution to bind MEM
bers in advance to the support of the
ticket was withdrawn explicitly on his
account because he gave the conven-
tion to understand that every member
was in honor bound to support the
nominee. BY Mr.. Curtis own words in
1876 Mr.. Curtis in 1884 deserves no at
tention whatever" If he cherishes the
illusion that he alone keeps the con-
science of the Republican party he
should disabuse himself of the idea
forthwith, and read what Mr.. Curtis
wrote eight years ago.

An Irishman's Opinion of Blaine.

The Boston Journal publishes the
following letter:
give herewith my name, residence
and the names of persons known to
you, or easily accessible, who will testi-
fly as to my standing, financially and
morally, not for publication, but that
you may judge somewhat as to the
worth of my testimony. l am Irish by
birth, American by naturalization,
have lived in New England nearly
thirty years, pay taxes on real and per-
sOnal property, never held or asked for
office, voted the democratic ticket 10y
ally, and am entirely qualified to get a
living and something over. Far from
the track of the professional politician
who trades in the sympathy or feelings
of IRISH voters. What say is this. /
shall vote for Blaine next November if
l have life, because / believe him to be
by all odds the greatest living repre-
sentative of what a great American
should be in the eyes of $1,000 900 peo-
pie at home and twenty times as many
abroad. / am willing to pay my
share of any tax or expense that may
result from carrying out such policy
as becomes great and free people and
great and free government, a govern
ment not wholly given up to shopkeep-
ing. And | say, furthermore, I have
good reasons for believing that in New
York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and
Illinois not less than 1000 citizens who
have always voted the democratic tick
ct will vote for Blaine next Novem-
Der. The newspaper men of indepe-
ndent stripe and the "unco good" had
better look this statement in the
face.

Hints About Picnics.

The most important part of picnic,
however. is not the weather or the
place or the dinner. You may choose
the most beautiful spot in the world.
and spread the most delicious lunch
ever prepared. and yet have the whole
thing q complete failure, simply be-
cause the company was not well select
ed. Out-of-doors, where people are
free from formslity, unless they are
congenial friends, and what Mrs Whit
ney calls Real Folks" they will be
likely to feel i'll at ease, and miss the
support given by the company, clothes
and manners. Small picnics, for this
reason among others, are usually much
pleasanter than large picnics.
In making up the party, be sure to
leave behind the girl whu is certain to
be too warm or too cold. or to think
some other place better than the one
where she is, and who has "a horrid
time" if she has to submit to any per-
sonal inconvenience for the sake OF
others; and with her. the boy who loves
to tease, and who is quite sure that his
way is the only good way. Put into
their places some others, young or old.
who love simple pleasure. and are
ready to help others to enjoy them.
Next in Importance to the company
is the place. 1t must not be at great
distance, or you will all be tired, not
to say cross, when you arrive there. 1t
must be reasonably shady. and not too
far from supply of good drinking
water. If the company are to walk,
you must be especially careful not to
be overburdened with baskets and
wraps, for the bundles which seemd SO
light when you started are sure to
weigh down much more heavily before
you reach your destination. Be careful
to have this work fairly distributed.
Never start until you are sure that
you know just where you are going,
and the best way of getting there.
Wandering about to choose 3 place,
and thinking constantly to find one
more desirable. is very fatiguing. The
matter should be settled beforehand
by two or three of the party, and the
others should go straight to the spot,
and make the best of it. If any do not
like it, they can choose different place
when their turn comes to make the Sc
lection.-FrOnl ':Picnics," by Susan d.
Broa0n. in ST. Nicholas for July.

How Beecher's Money Goes.

Mr.. Beecher has directed his man.
ager, Mr.. Pond, to book an extensive
lecturing tour for next year. Mr..
Beecher's salary is 500, 600 per annum.
He averages to receive double that sum
from his lectures and large additional
sum from his pen. He keeps open
house with his son, with whom he re-
sides), and gives loans, endorses and
does other unbusiness-like things con-
stantly at heavy cost to his treasury.
1t is said that beyond his farm at
Peekskill, his great house and stock
thereon, and his great library and brio
a-brac there and at Brooklyn, the great
word painter has nothing to show for
his large income for each of very many
years. His library is so large that it is
now being catalogued with view to
soon making a sale therefrom. He has
expended, it is estimated, $3.50, 900 in
books and as many more have been
given him by publishers. His house at
Peekskill, built not long since. Mr..
Beecher says has cost him $40, 200.
Others who watch business matters
closer and are familiar with its growth
say that $40, 600 would be nearer the
correct sum. His COWS are all Alder
neys, and the herd is believed to be
worth SIS, 600 to $4,000. His farm
and its manner of running and hospi-
tality is enough in itself to absorb 8
large income. 1t is yet somewhat en-
numbered. His collection OF. bric-a-
brac would make large and valuable

resist and avert his eyes from the
