Holland is the paradise Of skaters, its
highways being canals that are covered
with ice nearly half the year. The ladies
there 60 shopping on skates, boys skate
to and from school, older members OF
the family 60 to church on skates; the
postman delivers his letters and the doc
tor visits his patients on them, and even
the solemn pastor moves on skates whenhe
visits his parishioners. Dairymaids skate
to town with full pals of which not a
drop is spilled, and farmers daughters
skate to villages with full basket Of
eggs in each hand. During the Spanish
invasion several victories were won by
the native soldiers, who, on skates, sud-
denly moved on the forces Of Alva, and
as quietly retired to their own camp.
For period Of more than 400 years the
soldiers have been trained to perform ev-
olutions on skates.

A Mud City:

The name Of this notable place is not
euphonious, but it is in the heart Of Af-
rica, and in that far-off region Abealu-
tab may have softness Of tone not rec
ognizable by us. Round about this dis
tant city is picturesque fringing Of
minor settlements, the population Of the
city proper and its suburbs coming up
to two hundred thousand souls.
Abeakutah islands on a granite foun-
dation nearly six hundred feet above
sea-level, mud wall six hundred feet in
height surrounds it, it is thatched with
palm leaves, and must present very
pretty appearance. The twenty miles
circumference of this wall incloses much
farming land. The interior arrangements
Of Mud City are said to be more repul-
sive than otherwise. The streets are
narrow and far from clean, and great
irregularity prevails. The homes Of the
people are Of dried mud, and, like
the wall, they are thatched; ten or even
sometimes twenty rooms are devoted to
family comfort; These surround an inner
court where sheep and goats are kept.
But they are busy people in Mud City.
''Trades are carried on in primitive fash
ion, and there are 'unicas' of smiths carpen-
ters, weavers. dyers and potters; over
the last two on the list women
rule. Lively markets are held
and active traffic is carried on,
mainly by women. Barter is IN
food, cooked and uncooked, in yege-
tables and in oils, in shea or tree-butter,
raw cotton and grass, and many very
creditable manufactures are successfully
kept up among them-cutlery and ex-
cellent leather" Cowry shells is the &C
cepted currency, though there may be
changes, as it is recorded that in 1867
copper coins were under consideration.
A great deal of business must center in
Mud City, for caravans go from thence
in different directions many hundreds Of
miles.
The government is simple. ''There is
. king, and his functions are entirely
elective A general has charge Of an
army, and there is sort Of legislature,
admitting representation from outside
towns. Mud City can also speak loftily
in the matter of general intelligence,
since they can boast of newspaper
within their limits, and three religious
societies are free to enjoy themselves
unmolested. One church steeple is al
luded to as having a bell and a mud
steeple. Slavery has been abolished
among them, and commerce with Eng.
land established, and everything points
to prosperous conditions. .-Basdr.

When the late N. Villemessant, the
proprietor Of the Paris Figaro, died, he
left the paper to the three men who had
done the most to aid him. But there
were many old contributors on the paper
men with well-known names, who made
an outcry at this division of property.
They insisted that they ought to have
been consulted, and they threatened to
found an opposition to Figaro. This
alarmed the three principals, and they
made a proposition to the effect that
they themselves should take each $685.
900 out Of the concern yearly, and that
the other men should each have salary
Of 81, 500 for tho work they were to do,
and at the end Of the year draw like
sum out Of the profit, thus insuring
them $4,000 year each. Yet these
meE do not write an average Of more
than half column day each--if in
deed, that much; SO that they have
very easy time Of it. It's one of the
conditions that when any one Of them
dies his share goes to the others, SO that
the last survivor viii have an enormous
income. PhsladellAsSa North Amwiean.

If we take any moderately large in
sect, say wasp or hornet, we can see.
even with the naked eye, that series Of
small, spot-like marks run along either
side Of the body. These apparent spots,
which are generally eighteen or twenty
in number, are, in fact. the apertures
through which air is admitted into the
system, and are generally formed in such
a manner that no extraneous matter can
by any possibility find entrance. Some
times they are furnished with pair Of
horny lips, which can be opened and
closed at the will of the insect; in other
cases they are densely fringed with still
interlacing bristles, forming q filter,
which allows air, and air alone, to pass.
But the apparatus, Of whatever character
it may be. is always SO wonderfully per
feet in its action that it has been found
impossible to inject the body of dead
insect with even so subtitle medium as
spirits of wine, although the subject was
first immersed in the fluid and then
placed beneath the receiver of an all
pump. Boston Budget.

THE FAMINE.

All along the meadow-land
The rain beat and beat.
And up aloft, the orchard croft,
And in among the wheat;
And where the corn was standing green,
And where the oats were white,
Day after day, day after day,
And through the dreary night,
The driving flood came down and down,
Until in sore despair
The people cried, "God stay the tide,
And let His winds blow fair
For blight was gathering on the wheat
And mildew on the corn,
The oats hung down in rotting brown,
The rye-fields bent forlorn-
But day by day the lowering clouds
Poured forth their floods, until
The evil spell of hunger fell,
And famine had its win.
Then rose cry that went to heaven
And opened all its doors.
And hurrying forth from South, from North
And up from distant shores,
The agents of the Lord came swift
To succor and to save
With corn and wheat, ths ships sailed feet
Across the ocean wave.
Then ceased the wailing cry of woe,
The dread note of despair,
And hand clasped hand from strand to strand
And curses changed to prayer.
Then knit the tie Of brotherhood
And love sprang into birth,
Where scorn and spleen had come between
These nations of the earth.

Quaint Ancient Customs in London.

Recently, after morning service in
the Priory church of St. Bartholomew
the Great, West Smithfeld, an ancient
bequest was carried out under the
supervision of the rector and the church
wardens, by whom twenty-one new six
pences were placed on a tombstone in
the old churchyard, and were picked up
by an equal number of poor widows be-
longing to the parish. This quaint GUS
tom has been maintained for period
long anterior to the Protestant Reforma-
ton. The money gift has been pre-
served, although the name Of the bene-
factor has been lost.
Another ancient custom was observed
at Allhallows church, Lombard street,
where, in accordance with the will of
Peter Symonds, which dates so far back
as the year 1886, sixty of the younger
boys of Christ's hospital attended divine
service in the morning, and afterward
received new penny and bag Of
raisins. 1t was stated that this was the
two hundred and ninety-frst celebration
Of this quaint ceremony. AS supple
ment to this bequest, another citizen Of
London. William Petts, in the year 1892,
directed that the minister who preached
the sermon on Good Friday should have
2Os., the clerk As, and the sexton Ss.
3D., besides providing for the distribu-
tion of smaller sums of money among the
children of the ward and Sunday
schools. London Times.

The Eirst Iap.

The first Jap who Stated business in
New York was M. Sato, says core
sDondent. He came here twslse years
ago, and commenced business in Front
street. He was shrewd, plausible fel-
low, and drove close bargains. He pros
pered because it was a novel thing for a
Jap to have store, and people dropped
in to buy tea and japanese ware in orr
der to have look at him, and assist hiin
in abusing his ancient enemy, the heath
en- Chinee. The Japs detest the Chinese.
One day Sato met a pretty, roaY-cheekef
German girl. lie began to court heF ia

her with various presents. Ellis atten-
tions were well received, and the pooY
girl became his bride. A ftw years

The economical habits of the heather
Chinee are notorious, and they are we'll
illustrated by a correspondent, who,
writing frora Tien-tsin, says: The Chi
nese infantry soldier is paid once a month,
when he receives three and one-half taels
Of silver. This sum, which is equat-ss
about nineteen shillings Of English
money, is given to him in scrap bullion;
and during the night preceding each nay
day the pay-masters are busily engaged
in weighing out silver and making it UP
into neat little packages for distribution.
AS soon as he has obtained his share the
soldier takes it to the nearest shopkeeper
or money-changer, who, in return for il,
hands him $500 copper cash, the aggre-
gate weight of which is quite as much as
he can conveniently carry. Out Of this
the soldier has to keep himself in food
and clothing; and the pay cannot, there
fore, be called excessive. a Chinaman,
however, lives almost exclusively upon
rice, months supply Of which costs NJ
