Sir Thomas Gresham, who built the
Royal Exchange in London, was the
son of poor woman who, while he
was an infant abandoned him in field.
The chirpiug Of grasshopper attracted
a boy to the spot where the child lay,
and the life of the latter was preserved
by this means. After Sir Thomas had,
by his great success as merchant,
risen TO the pinnacle of commercial
wealth, he chose grasshopper for his
crest. Becoming, under the patronage
OF Queen Elizabeth, the founder of the
Royal Exchange, the crest was placed
on the walls of the building in several
parts, and a vane, or weathercock, in
the shape Of grasshopper, was fixed
on the summit of the tower.

There are reasons why the wife or

book. In the first placeit would fur
nish interesting information of the
number of pounds of sugar, spice,
flour, meat, etc., that family Of

know anything definite about these
things? Again, such record would
suggest changes in the living in one
way or another, and furnish a basis
for calculation Of the requirements of
the coming year. we knew of lady
who went so far as to keep an account
of the number of extra meals which
she furnished in year, and when it
was announced the family were great
ly surprised. A household account is

ON THE subject Of railroad legislation
by Congress, the Cincinnati Times-Star
says: "From the beginning of the ses-
sion the House has devoted Its attention
chiefly TO 'monopolies.' The regulation
Of railroads is n favorte object of Con-
gresslonal effort and theme which in
spires the greatest flow of eloquence.
No doubt some of the railroads need
regulating, in the public interest, but
whether 1t is possible to devise just
rules with respect to freight charges for
general application, may be questioned.
The Reagan bill attempts TO prevent
discrimination in favor ofor against GER
tain communities, and to make the rail-
roads treat all alike. In theory, consid-
ering the railroads quasi-public prop
erty, this may appear to he commend
able scheme. But, on the other hand,
from the standpoint of private rights,
the tendency of such legislation is re-
garded as oommunistic. Around the
grave questions involved in this bill
conflict Of opinions has been going on
for years. and it is not to be supposed
that these issues will be settled by the
present Congress"
