THERE is q scheme in contemplation
to establish turtle parks on the coasts
of Provence, Algeria, and Corsica. The
turtle is so exceedingly prolific that if
the eggs of only five females of the
species could be protected from their
numerous enemies every year the Med
iterranean would soon swarm with tur-
ties. The turtle lays its eggs during
the night upon the beach, covers them
lightly with sand, and leaves them to
be Matched by the sun. Unfortunately,
they are regarded as delicacy by the
inhabitants of the coast, who eat the
greater part of them, while many more
fall prey to dogs and other animals
and of the young turtles which leave
the shell, the greater number are de-
voured on their way to the sea by tin.
innumerable wild fowl which flock
about the coasts of the Mediterranean.
The creation of few parks of the sort
proposed would so favor the iturally
rapid multiplication of the species that
turtle, instead of being the luxury of
the rich. might be seen on poor men S
tables, and sold ut cheap restaurants.

The Test of Beauty.

A ball dress is not the test of wom-
ans actual beauty; and many woman
bewitching in home attire is insigniti-
cant in grander toilette. Mr. Ruskin,
whose passion for destroying institu-
tons fallen into abuse is eQualed only
by his inspiration for suggesting better
ones, has lately raised u question as to
the propriety of girls being wooed and
won in the gay world, where, in u
miserable confusion of candlolight,
moonlight, and anything but daylight.
in indeoently attractive and insanely
expensive dresses, in snatched mo-
ments, in hidden corners, in accidental
impulses and dismal ignorances, young
people smirk and ogle and whisper
and whimper and sneak and stumble
q ID fiutter and tumble and blunder
into what they call love" However,
there Is another side to the picture, al
though many man has probably had
the instinct of the French Marquis,
Just married to young wife, who
came down one night dressed for ball,
| oking so radmntly beautiful that, af-
t,r gazing admiringly at her for time,
he tore her gown to pieces by way of
preventing others from enjoying such a
sight. The Marquise no doubt re-
turned her husbands devotion, for she
regretted neither the dress nor the ball,
and declared herself battered beyond
measure and proud of this unique
proof of his admiration. "-Lippi1t-

A Novel Method of Making Pln-Money.

The general and intense thought,
says New York paper, which impecu-
nous or restless femininity has put
upon ways and means of swelling the
exchequer has developed some curious
expedients in the monetary line. Wom-
en- try unheard-of experiments to make
money, and, though often with pitiable
results, the ce tain consequences of des-
perate or illtimed measures, quite as
often with rare and radiant success.
One that has grown to be recog.
nized business, extensively pursued,
though on the sly, is to take women
and children out to ride ut a price per
hour far below anything the livery sta
bles offer. As the business is almost
exclusively occupied by ladies who toll
not, neither do they spin. so far as the
world knows, it has gained but little

newspapers, but always signed simply

"Not:ce to Invalids-A lady will take
an invalid lady or child for drive in
the park, or elsewhere, as often as de-
sired, for small compensation. Address
Y 10. etc."
Every issue of such advertisement,
in far weather, is apt to bring several
answers. To these the female Jehus
reply in person at the modest figure of
fifty cents an hour. Their phaetons
are generally stylish and we'll kept, and
their horses handsome, if not the most
manageable in the world. They array
themselves in modish driving costumes,
and reign mp in front of the houses
designated in the note of response to
the advertisement quite as nonchalant-
lv as though their fares were friends
of years standing. They know moth
ing o the persons they take out, and
their fares" know nothing of them. All
women affect the severest propriety in

ness with which they are willing to

A Bismarck paper says that young
man named VIM. III. Becker "has been
suggested" as the appontee of Cleve-
land for the governorship of Dakota in
case of democratic slaughter. The
same paper suggests. as a matter of
course, a Bismarcker for the same posi-
tion, u. w. Maratta. If Mr.. Becker
really wants the office. and Bismarck
withdraws its claim in the case, the
thing is settled.

Valley City is alive over the question
as to the handling and shipping OF grain.
A meeting of citizens has been held,
looking to legislative action this winter,
compelling common carriers to furnish
cars at a uniform rate for the shipment
of grain to any regular station. The
Valley City Democrat finds the measure
in accordance with its free trade princi-
pies, and IS active in the good work. A
hard fight in the legislature will result,
and then, if a bill is passed,
tedious litigation in the courts.
1t will be contended by the car
riers that such a law is invalid, as inn
pairing the obligation of contracts, po-
sition which cannot be maintained.
