Mr. Houeh has been great Odd Fellow
all his life, and has filled
many offices of honor and of trust in that
society. He is man of ordinary size, quiet
in his manners, very attentive to business,

vents him from mingling much with his fell
lowmeu, and yet he is social and pleasant to

A GIRLS MUSEUM.

Long Branch is just now as full of curl
osities as dime museum. There is o young
woman who proudly poses as the possessoi
OF fourteen dozen pairs of silk stockings
striped, checked, crossed, clicked, and
adorned with gorgeous insects, birds and
snakes. Some of them cost $50 pair, and
II is said that she has never worn the same
pair twice since she has been there. An
other young lady has forty parasols. They
are OF all colors, and many of them are COW
cred with costly lace. The handles end in
the most bizarre designs heather idols,
crocodiles, colored babies, birds and mon
keys. Some of these gorgeous srappings
cost from 5000 to 5000. each. A bright.
eyed brunette has fourteen pairs of shoes
and fifty pairs of slippers She has break
fast, lunch, dinner and tea slippers, not to
mention slippers for the piazza and slippers
for the ballroom. They vary in color from
fiery red TO humble gray A Frenchwoman
used to appear at the dances in the evening
with curious-loolsing necklace on. She
was asked what it was composed Of She
answered, tigers teeth" and said that it
had been presented to her by rajah in
India. Each tooth was gold-mounted and
contained q tiny diamond. The other wo-
men took SO great repugnance to the thing
That the owner was obliged to lay it aside,
although she declared that it was as good as
mascotte, and that she always put it under
her pillow at night for good dreams.

MAKING TREES BEAR YEARLY.

From the american Garden In many
parts OF the country, apple trees yield crop
Of fruit only every alternate year, the year
represented by an odd number Q8s9) be-
ing barren, while that represented by an
even number (l880) will be fruitful. Some
trees will yield fruit only every other year,
while others near them on every side will
annually produce bountiful crop.
Two seasons are required to produce a
crop of apples, that is, during one season
the fruit-buds are developed, and during
the next, fruit. All the vital. energies Of
some trees are employed during one season
to develop the fruit-buds then the year
following their entire vitality seems to be
spent In developing the fruit, without suffi-
cient force being left to form fruit-buds fol-
the crop of the next season.
Now, in order to induce On apple tree to
bear every season, climb into the top, or go
up on ladders, just as one does when pluck
ing the ripe fruit, and with a pair OF sharp
shears clip off all the young fruit from about
half the tree. Then fruit-buds will form on
that side of the tree from which the young
apples were cut of. One-half the top, then,
will bear fruit one year, while the other halt
will yield fruit the next season.

JOINING BROKEN NERVES.

The Academy of Sciences was entertained
the other day with description Of the new
operation which NJ. Tillaux has performed
with 90 much success. This is the repara-
ton of a broken nerve after the two ends
have been long separated by an interval
from communication with the brain and
become entirely useless. For long time,
indeed almost until q very few days ago, 1t
had been supposed impossible to effect this
junction, owing partly to the fact that the
two ends would contract so as to be too
short to meet one another Indeed, the
surgeons oil with one consent declared that
the thing was impossible and inconsistent
with the principles of their art. M. TilIaux
was of different opinion, and has made
two experiments which show conclusively
that he was right and the faculty was wrong
The first was case of a woman who had
cut through her wrist with pane of glass,
severing ono of the most important nerves
in the arm. For four months the arm had
been paralyzed, and had lost all sense Of
feeling; but the doctor has now sewed up
the nerve, and the hand has resumed oil its
power. The other case was still more extra
ordinary, being that of man in whose arm
the nerve had been severed for fourteen
years, but whose cure was no less complete.

USES OF ARCTIC EXPLORATION.

In three hundred years there have been
some two hundred Artic voyages, for various
purposes and with various sates. The Gree
ly expedition was but one of thirteen
expeditions. Five hur.yed men passed
two winters within the polar circle, and
nineteen of them only were lost And Lieu
tenant Ray says that the result of the obser-
Sations of oil these expeditions will be the
doubling of the worlds knowledge of the
magnetic forces. That is to say, Ms the Rev.
Brooke Herford states in his admirable
sermon upon this subject, mot one of all
the thousand and ten thousand craft sailing
to and fro among the nany lands of earth
but will be little surer of its compass, little
closer in its reckoning, little safer, than
1t over was BEFORE Is this worth nothing
Is not the risk, the loss, even amply recon-
pensed But also, rs Mr.. Herford points
out, the moral qualities, the patience, the
courage, the self-denial, the faith, the en-
durance, developed by these Northern re-
searches are Incompatible There is sim

doings to be compared with it. Beside it

patient and generous endurance, amid ap-
parently remediless suffering, which the re-
cord of the Greedy expedition discloses dis

THE AMERICAN HOTEL.

The American hotel is both the centre
and the nuisance of the town. Around the
hotel congregate all the discontented people,
those who from various reasons have lost
industry for housekeeping and thrift for
plain boarding. They are like birds in
cage, always tempting others to come to the
hotel to live and yet always DESTROYS them
selves to get back again to some substantial
life. At the hotel you not only get all the
news, but oil the scandal II becomes the
snoozing and boozing place for the young
fellows. around the town, who there tell
their old stories and cultivate the bar-keeper,
and have often observed that the bar
keeper is the fayorite guest in the hotel

ants that way, leaning on the bar telling
their private family life to the bar-keeper.
