The TrycI Ic.
From the LONDON standard. ]

The bicycle does not commend itself to
travellers who want to use their eyes and
tongues as well as their legs. 1t is but
hoop turned into wheel, and those who
trundled the one yesterday have mounted
the other to-day.
The luxury of the tryccle has yet to be
appreciated III the United States. where
at present it is very little known. Seated
upon trycicle the rider may amsle or
gallop as he pleases; he may loiter to
take photograph or to sketch ; to hunt
IA butterfly or pluck wild flower, aud hie
machine will carry all the priz he NAV
collect. rot so the bicycle. The ridrr,
until he is thoroughly az JaU at the cX-
erc.se, finds it not very ers, To dismount
and mount walking the machine is II feat
requiring some dexterity; standing still
is impossible. But the tricyclist may go
as he lists sit still AS long us he pledses,
to watch the landscape or listen to the
singing Of bird, and he can dismouut
and mount again in an instant. Such a
vehicle has been the dream If men for II
century
1t Is we'll within the mark to say that
no vehicle has ever risen to such II sure
place III public estimation in SO short n
tune Seven years have not vet elapsed
since the first tricycle. made its appear
ance and now uhe supply cannot keep
pace with tine demand. Last ear 10, 600
new machines were sold, and this year it
is anticipated that not only will manu-
facturers work full time, but that the
stocks in hand will be entirely exhausted.
Already 1000 workmen are engaged in
the manufacture of tricycles, and cnpital
approaching million sterling has been
sunk iii their manufacture. 1t must not
be assumed that because the tricycle. is II
more steady-going machine that it is,
therefore, SLOW A man may ride, for i'll
stance, from John O'Groat's to Laud's
End within fortnight; he may go t,
Paris, ride from that city to Geneva, auu
return home by train within ten days ; ol
he may, starting from Lucerne, rid,
rouna the Swiss lakes, cross the Alps
and, running down into Italy, pas
through the enchanted scenes by LAX,
Maggiore to Luciano, and return home
within twelve days. The future OF th
tricycle. is assured. The art Of riding
tricycle. is easily acquired, but its enjoy
ment depends upon the constant exercis
of the judgment III great variety of eli
cumstances, for which no special BET Il
rules can be laid down.

Unconscious Bias In Walking.

Mr. G.. H. Darwin, in Nature, states
that some ten Years ago he made a few
experiments upon the subject of "Uncon-
scious Bias in Wafklng" He began by
walking himself, and getting variolis
friends to walk, with eyes shut in grass
field. All walked with amazing crooked
ness in paths which were not far removed
from circles. Two of the circles de-
scriued were not more than fifty yards in
diameter although the pedestrians thought
they were going straight All diverged
to the right excepting one, who was
strongly left.handed. II then got eight
village schoolboys, from ten to twelve
years of age" continues Mr.. Darwin,
"and offered shilling to the boy who
would walk straightest bliudfolded. Be-
fore the contest. however, | busted some
sawdust on the ground, and after making
each of the boys walk over it, measured
their strides from right to left and left to
right. They were also made to hop. and
the foot on winch they hoped was noted ;
they were then made to jump over n
stick, and the foot from which they
sprang was entered lastly, they were III
structed to throw II stone, and the hand
with winch they threw was noted. Each
of these tests vas applied twice over.
think they were all right han led in throw
ing a stone, but believe that two OF
them exhibited some mark Of being part
ly left-handed. the six who were totally
right-haudcd strobe longer from left to
right than from right to left, hoped on
the left leg, and rose in jumping from
that leg. Oue boy pursued the opposite
course, and the last walked irregularly,

all the time when they begin to harden
pour them over the asparagus.
A larger cake was demanded or requir
ed for tea there was nothing in the
house to favor it or t. make II filling for
it, with the exception of an onion and an
orange no one could be spared to go to
market, so the cake was baked III two lay
ers on each of these was placed the thin
nest possible slices Of the orange, and a
frostiug of the whites of two eggs, aud
enough sugar to make frosting Of me-
dium thickness was spread over each lay
er ; the result was extremely gratifying,
one of the family wondering where the
recipe for tue delicious cake was pro-
cured.
Old-fnshioned ten cakes are made Of one
cup of sugar, half cup Of butter, two
thirds of cup of sweet milk, one egg,
third of teaspoouful Of soda dis
solved in the milk. Mix enough -four
with this to make soft dough, which can
be rolled ont cut the cakes out with II
smooth-edge cooky cutter. Serve fresh

s.,od Bless Us!"

A great many persons say God o'ess
us" when they sneeze- The following e1-
plains the origin of ,he practice Accord
ing to the rabbiuical theory 1t was orlsl-
nully ordained that men should sueeze
but once, in that act, possibly only when
the time of death had come, giving up
the ghost. But the patriarch Jacob, feel
ing that such n sudden call allowed no
time for the settlement of worldly AFFAIRS
and for preparation for the hereafter;
prayed for exemption from the rule, and
in answer to Lis prayer WAS allowed 10
snseze and not die. The change was re-
garded as great benefit, and all the
princes of the universe, when they neard
it, ordered that for the future sneeAing
should be accompanied with thanksgiving
for tue preservation of life and earnst
wishes for Its prolongation.' Hence the
custom which has prevailed among all
nations of utteriug some form OF saluta-
ton on the occasion of the act. A very
common ejaculation among old English
people On sneeZing is God bless us !
which generally sounds more humorous
than reverential under the circumstan-

large stock OF articles on hand. In fact
we now have material enough to fill
our magazines for three years to come" "
How do you obtain your illustra-
tions?
"In various ways Some poor fellow
may be digging diamonds in Africa, and
all the while gathering material, taking
photographs, which he some day may
send to us. Our writer's put his stuff in
presentable form if necessary, and our
artists make their drawings from the
photographs and descriptions. II neces-
sary, we send artists TO the spot. Cables
novels were illustrated by drawings made
On the spot in Louisiana. We will send
an artist to any portion of the globe
Some years ago we sent Blum to Spain to
make some drawings of the scenery and
the bull-ight l knew that some one
would write on bull-fght before long,
and Charles Dadlcy Warmers descrip-
tions of Spain were illustrated by those
very drawings. To get Queen Victoria +
face we sent an engraver to England, and
he engraved from a portrait by Sully.
Cole is III. Europe making engravings from
paintings by old masters"
"Do you have salaried artists and engra-
vers?"
"No we pay solely by the piece and
use any artist or engraver in the world
that is available"
"How much do you pay ?"
'It is next to impossible to answer that
question. A page may not contain as
much work as quarter page. 1t depends
upon the character of the drawing. Al
though could not give you any figures
that would not be misleading, you might
say from $50 to $500 or $40O for the best
drawings and from $25 to $3.50 for the
finest engravlngs You can make Il better
estimate from the fact that we spent $3.50,
900 one year in our art department, in.

one cup of sugar, half cup Of butter,
two scant tenspooufuls of baking powder,
flavor with rose, use flower enough to

A very nice way to cook veal outlets is
to dip them INTO well-beaten egg, then
cover them with fine cracker crumbs
melt some butter and lard in the frying /;
pan, and cook the outlets slowly IL 1t !;
season with pepper and salt, and serve
with currant, catsup, or jelly.
Another excellent way to cook veal is
to first cut 1t into pieces that are the
right .lze to serve on the plate, fry them
in butter, then dust -four over them from
II SITTER, and put hot water enough into
the fryiug-pan to cover the meat, let 1t
cook very slowly, season highly with pep
per aud salt. In half an honr, take the
meat out, put it on IA hot platter, thicken
the gravy, adding butter, cayenne pep
per, and the yolks of two eggs ; pour
this over the meat and send it steaming
to the table.
Asparagus is delicious if piece of
juicy and tender lamb is cooked with 1t.

with thin slices of toast. After you are

most like "A new dish, aud be eaten with
