One Thing that she Forgot.

A good story is told of prominent
member of society who has a habit
of tying knot in her pocket hand
kerchief when she wished to fix any
thing in her mind to be attended
to. She was engaged in a desperate
Irritation on certain occasion and in
her abstraction dropped the hand
kerchief on the floor. This was
noticed by her hostess, who endeav-
ored to break up her Irritation by in
vitinS her guest into another part of
the house. AS the latter rose from
the chair she stopped and picked up
her handkerchief, noticing, as she did
so, the knot in one corner. "What
have / forgotten to-day 2" she asked
audibly. "That you have hus-
band" replied her hostess. The
story was repeated, and the lady,
who is well-known member of the
diplomatic circle, always keeps her
handkerchief free from knots now,-

Bananas.

1t is astonishing how little is
known of bananas, considering the
extent to which they are eaten. New
York gets every week an average Of
1000 punches. From Florida? Not
a single one. Florida only raises
enough bananas for home consump
ton. All these yellow ones we get
from Central America, principally
from Aspinwall, Those big, fat, red
fellows are from Cuba. Plantains ?
Oh no; that's a general mistake,
plantains are only edible when cook
ed; they are more vegetable than
fruit. You didn't know there were
$50 distinct varieties of bananas, did
you ? The fruit comes to us quite
green, but in the summer will ripcn
in ore or two days. Cool weather
cOmpels us TO Use artificial treatment
and we hang them in close room
and apply heat. 4 green bunch will
not he ripe under four days. With
the bananas we import, duty free,
are a good many foreign inhabitants.
See that snake yard long, it was
taken alive from a bunch. And q
spider came in another, bringing
her nest with her. 1t contains a
hundred eggs. She has come to t
cold climate to hatch. TarantuIu,
are frequently found and the accom-
paniments are by no means rare.

The Desire to be Gulied.

Detroit Free Press.
Let a loug-haired individual with a
broad brimmed hat, an Indian name
brass band and peddler'S wagon
set himself up at the street corner
and proclaim himself a Wondeaful
physician, with panacea for all the
ills that flesh is heir to, and he will
attract hundreds Of Intelligent per-
sons, who will pay their money to a
man they never saw before for a
compound concerning which they
know nothing beyond his b0astful
assertions. The same person who
put no trust in the advice of a physi-
clan whom they have known for
years, and whose interest it is to adj.
wise them fairly and for the best, will
swallow with avidity the advice and
the nOstrum of any loud.yoiced
quack who forces himself upon their
attention. In some cases, no doubt,
it is because the quack promises, hav.
ing no espOnsibility, what the edu-
Gated physician with a reputation at
stake does not promise. But in the
vast majority of cases it seems as if
the impelling mOtive-the ruling
passion on which the quaCk plays so
successfully-is the desire to be
gulled.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Dr. L1ndsley's Report for the Month
 of June.

Dr. L1ndsleyss Report for the Month
 The report of Dr. Lindsley, secretary of the State Board of Health, for the month of June has been issued and, as usual, is very inter esting. In it he says: Two of the cities only had an annual death rate of more than twen- ty to the 1 1000 of population Hartford, 234 and Norwich, 204. The city of least death rate is Meriden. Diarrhoeal diseases, which are in season always when the weather is warm, are certainly less prevalent than usual ill June. The cholera scare may have had an influence in diminishing the mortali- ty from intestinal diseases, because it has prompted people to remove more of their filth than they have hitherto been accustom- ed to do, and so much rendering the air purer.
 Malarial diseases are certainly disappear ing, only four fatal cases being reported from the cities of the State, and one other in Windham and one in North Manchester Dr. R. G. Griswold of North Manchester de- scribes an unusual type of malarial disorder prevailing in that locality during June in which 50 per cent. of the cases were accom- panied by quinsy, inaamed arynx and bronchitis, in which no treatment was so successful as the recognized anti-malarial medicine.
 Pneumonia has largely diminished since the previous month, as is usual with the estab- lishment of warm weather.

New Train Light.

Experiments are being made with drawing room cars on the New York, New Haven & Hartford, on which are placed six incandes- cent lamps to burn compressed gas patented by Philadelphian. They are fifty candle power each and supply such an illumination that the car is as light as day and person can read in any part of it. A cylind CT ten feet in length and fifteen inches in diameter, under the car, carries the compressed gas, with pressure of five hundred to six hun dred pounds to the square inch. The gas is made from crude petroleum and is less ex- pensive than common lubricating gas. If the new system is adopted works will be built in New Haven for lighting the compa- ny's buildings and cars. The plant will cost 0,0OO.

NEwsBOxs AND BooTBLAoKs.

Prominent Citizen Asks That They Be L1censed-His Reasons. In the Board of Aldermen last evening the following petition was read and referred to the Committee on Ordinances. The purpose of the petitioner as stated to a COURIER rep resentative is, if possible, to bring the classes named under suitable regulations adopted by the city, so that they may be brought under police con- trol. He stated that the newsboys commenc- ed crying their papers on Sunday mornings as early as 5 o'clock and at this season of the year when windows were necessarily kept open it was very annoying to people who wanted to sleep, and most people 80 desired, especially on Sunday mornings. Another annoyance mentioned was the persistency with which both classes importuned people on the streets to buy their papers or have heir shoes blacked. The professor will ap- pear before the Committee on Ordinances in advocacy of his petition at the proper time. The petition reads as follows:
 To the Honorable Court of Common Council of the City of New Haven:
 Gentlemen-The lack of regulation under which the crying and sale of newspapers and the backing of boots in the streets, parks and public places of this city your petitioner believes to be productive of unusual evils which proper ordinances may rectify. The large number of irresponsible and uncon- trolled boys engaged in these pursuits and the annoyance which citizens in their homes and business suffer because of the manner and kind of importunities, your petitioner believes is not conducive to the peace of the city and the good morals of the newsboys and bootblacks. He asks, therefore, that an ordinance be passed regulating these veca- tions.
 He would suggest that newsboys and boot blacks be required to have license; that no fee be charged for this license; that the cry ing of newspapers in the streets be forbidden on Sunday morning before seven o'clock and the noisy crying on that day be entirely for bidden.
 All of which is respectfully submitted.

Burglars Again At worR-Robbine ne Chinese LaundrfeR.

Early yesterday morning burglars entered the Chinese laundry kept by Chong Wong on Congress avenue, and secured gold watch and $50 in money and made good their es- cape. The burglars also tried to get at $700 which was in strong box under the ironing board in the, laundry, but failed. The same parties also entered another Chinese laundry on the corner of Hill and West Water streets and stole $7 and 8 pair of pants At both places entrance had been effected by boring a hole in the panel of one of the rear doors, and after obtaining an entrance drugged the Chinamen within. It is thought the work was that of fellow countrymen, some of money in his possession.
