The Brazilian Throne and Grown.

The gorgeous seat, the throne of Brazil,
is richly-carved armchair, supported by
miniature lions, with their heads and names
in front, the whole in the richest gliding
The point of the high back is surmounted
by an imperial crown, also gilt, and the
cushions are of white satin, embroidered
with gold. The ascent to the square plat
form of green velvet on which it stands is
by three steps covered with the same ma
terial. The canopy of green silk velvet,
with gilt crown on the cornice in front,
is as lofty as the ceiling, and from it heavy
hangings of velvet, richly embroidered with
gold and lined with white damask, figured
with the same, descend to the platform and
floor of the chamber
When the aortes is in session, the en-
peror appears in full coronation attire,
wearing the crown and bearing the sceptre.
The crown is lofty, of beautiful antique
shape, and one of the richest in the world.
Except the cap of green silk velvet, and the
band or rim Of gold, it seems one mass of
diamonds, Around the neck is Spanish
ruff of lace, and beneath it, in place of the
ermine in other regal attire, deep cape of
the bright yellow feathers of the toucan,
splendid Brazilian bird.
This cape was a part of the dress of the
ancient caciques Of the country, and was,
with great propriety, retained in the coro-
nation paraphernalia on the establishment
of the empire.
1t is very like, the feather capes of the
Sandwich Islands ehieftains, Then comes
the robe of green silk velvet, lined with
white satin, the whole. gorgeously embroid-
cred with gold. 1t is supported at dis
tance OF ten or twelve fest by couple of
pages, who, as the emperor becomes seated,
casts it on one side, leaving it widely spread
over the steps of the throne.

500 pound is the price of the new To-
cal an@sthetic, coca, a small consignment
Of which has reached Boston, said to be
the first sent here in the form of mer.
chantable drug. This new an@sthetic was
discovered bya German student, and is
said to be capable of making particular
part of the human body insensible to pain.
An experiment was made with woman
in Utt-Sinai Hospital, New York. Twelve
drops of the new an@sthetic were placed
in one of her eyes, and in less than ten
minutes she had lost all sensation in that
organ, though otherwise conscious and
fully sensitive. The eye was operated
upon, giving no pain whatever to the pa
tient.

night, however, Mr. Battledore was aroused
from his first doze by an ominous question
from his wife, who inquired, rather mean
ingly as he imagined, whether he had re-
ceived a letter from her
"a letter. What?' he asked, taken
aback.
''The letter [ wrote to your office on
Tuesday" said Mrs. Battledore.
/ 1t would have been perfectly simple, and
also perfectly true, for Mr.. Battledore to
have answered in the negative. The next
moment he bitterly repented not having
done so. But somehow or other, when the
question was asked, he was seized by an
unreasoning panic arising from a guilty
conscience. and the idea flashed across his
mind that if, he said he had not received
the letter, his wife would instantly suspect
he had been absent from the othce. An
instants reflection would have convinced
him of the foolishness of such notion, but
lhe replied hastily and thoughtlessly, in
spired by secret uneasiness and his evil
genius =,

A FIRE started in shed close to
Wilder's old railway track, near the
salt beds, South street this morning.
The shed is only about yard from
the house to which it belongs, and
there being good many houses in
that quarter the fire was threaten
ing one at first. 1t was, however,
put out by the occupants Of the
house, assisted by neighbors, with
out an alarm being given. A bale
of hay, sundry bags and other truck
were blazing, but few buckets OF
water prevented the flames from
spreading. 1t is supposed the fire
was started by small boy playing
with matches.

The benefit of advertising has just
been strikingly illustrated in this
office. Last evening the manager of
this paper was ordered by telephone
to insert an advertisement announc-
ing the loss of a black Newfound-
land dog. This forenoon, after the
advertisement had been put in type,
the lost dog entered the office and
lay down in front of the counter,
remaining there until his owner was
summoned and identified him. The
animal is the property of gentle
man connected with the Inter-
Island Steamship line. 1t is strange
the brute should have come where
he did instead of going home, al
though it is fresh evidence of the
sagacity of the canine species that
he should have come to the foun-
tain of local intelligence when he
discovered he was lost dog.

There is a doctor in this iowa who IA too
pArsimonious to enjoy good health. lie
eats about one square meal day, and tries
to make himself believe he gets two moe,
but be don't, for breakfast and supper are
merely a sham. Not contented with starv-
ing himself and family, he has just hit on
new scheme to stsrye his own horse and
yet make the poor animal think it is his
own fault that he don't get fatter.
In the back part Of the manger, where
the corn is put, he has set a square piece Of
looking glass, which he keeps highly polish
ed He puts in about four ears Of corn
and Of course the poor horse sees the rehec-
ton and braces him,elf for a good square
meal, fondly imagining that he lie getting
eight. Az he eats the corn of the COBB,
the fictitious ears also disappear, and eight
cobs appear to his astonished eyes. He
then wonders how he can have gotten
away with eight cara and yet feel no more
weight in his stomach. This conundrum,
added TO the light feed, ia wearing the poor
animal away 40 fast that II the doctor
don't make change ere long, he will go

Work means waste, equally 10 a hu-
man body and locomotive engine.
"More work, moo waste" is a motto
alike true Of the mechanics mp
paratus and Of the mechanic himself
Not an action, we repeat. is performed
by us which ia not accompanied by an
expenditure of force derived from and
accompanied by proportional waste Of
substance. The movements Of muscles,
the beating Of the heart, the winking Of
an eyelid, the thinking a thought, entail
wear and tear upon the muscles that
work and the brain-cells that think.
Every action necessitates bodily waste
and corresponding physical repair.
Waste, however, cannot Of necessity be
a single and final process in living
body-unless, indeed. we were born
with a full complement of matter, and
were permitted in the order of nature TO
live on the principals with which we
had been provided, instead of wisely US.
ing that principal as a means Of ginning
livelihood through the interest it ac-
quired. That we are not so constituted
is an evident fact, hence our bodies de-
mand pretty constant repair ms a COM
panion action TO that of work, labor and
duty. This process of repair consists in
the reception Of matter from the outer
world, in the transformation of this mat
ter into ourselves. and in its utilization
in the work and repair of the frame.
Such matter we shortly name food, and
the processes whereby it is converted
into our own bodily substance we term
digestion. Chambers Journal.
