The Cigarette.
Boston Globe.J

AS. far as the cigarette introduces young
people to that terrible, deadly, delicious
habit of. smoking, it is indeed an evil, but
if a man VIII smoke, and most men will,
he will find the use Of the cigarette, often
condemned as the worst form of smoking,
the least harmful, if praeticed with proper
precaution. An eminent Englishman has
shown how this precantion should be
taken. He says that the cigarette
without mouth-piece is really never
smoked more than half way through
in theeast. It is well understood there,
as it isaby all practiced cigarette smokers,
that every inhalation from cigarette
slightly deteriorates in quality from the
first. a small deposit of the very Of
fensive oil Of tobacco is left in the finely
cut leaf. Very little of this arrives in the
smokers mouth if he stops when half is
consumed Many Oriental smokers con
sumo no more than a third. Turkish
ladies will smoke fifty or upwards in a
day in this manner. The whole of the
noxious matter can be intercepted by u.s.
ing a mouthpiece in which a small plug
of cottonwood is placed, and renewed

The LApp and His Reindeer.


The mountain Lapps of Norway have
learned to drink coffee and wear stout
Norwegian cloth but they set as much store
by the reindeer as ever. A poor family
viii have fifty and upward in flock, the
1000 or more. The reindeer is as much
beloved by the Lapp as his pig by the
Irishman, and the reindeer often sleepin a
hut in much the same fashion. - The
Lapp viii whisper to his reindeer when
Harvesting him to his sleigh, and will
tell him where he is to go, and declares he
understands him. The reindeer is much
like stag, only smaller; all the people,
animals and trees in Lapland are diminu-
tive, the men are mostly under five feet
high, and the women under four feet
nine inches, so great are the rigors of the
climate in this as in all countries under
the arctic, and the cows, sheep and goats
are small in proportion.
In summer the reindeer feeds upon
grass, and give excellent milk; in the
winter they feed upon moss, which they
scratch up under great depths of snow
with marvellous Instinct. When winter
draws near great numbers are killed, and
the flesh is dried and smoked to provide
food when the ground is covered with
snow, and but few birds, like ptarmigan,
partridges and capercailzie are met with.
The flesh is very nutritious, and after a
course of grass feeding it is surprising how
soon the reindeer become fat and plump.
The skin makes their dresses and boots,
the sinews their thread and fishing lines,
and the horns their spoons and domestic
utensils

A scene in Actual Life.
New York Letter. /


There are moving sights In actual life
at every turn, and with sad qualities which
depend on no prepared devices for effect.
William Fl Vanderbilt sat at an upper
window of his mansion the other morning
with face so glum that called a friends
attention to it.
"Do you suppose it possible that he seri.
ously feels the heavy loss from the depre
citation In his own stocks and the financial
ruin of one or two Of his sons through
speculation" l asked.
POSSIBLY he does, " was the reply, "for

than $50, 600, 900 if we reckon from the
highest quotations of the past down to the
lowest of the present Besides, he has had

his sons disastrous ventures. But look
across the street. There's a sight that
ought to make him quite content with the
sons and the hundred millions which are
left to him.
Directly opposite the block of Wander
bilt residences in Fifth avenue is Roman
Catholic orphan asylum, standing back
from the famous street; and down the in
clined walk toward the gate came a
woman and little boy. That she was
q mother in poverty and he a half orph-
aned son, whom cruel fate and benefcent
charity combined to take away from her,
was apparent at glance The parting
was breakage of the two fond hearts,
that was clear, else the woman would not
have Rugged the boy SO desperately nor

happiness. Then a sister, in the somber
garb of her order, emerged from the
asylum, spoke few words TO the sorrow
ing ones, gently separated them, sent the
mother away, and led the boy indoors.
VanderbilFs eyes rested on this incident;
but whether It made his loss of millions
seem trivial mishap do not know.

of which complaints have been made be-

very valuable agents from a sanitary

they produce. The steam tugs which
agitate otherwise stagnant canals must

4" Hold In" Instead of "HoId Out.

A contagion is fast spreading in our
city, and if tho City Council does not take
immediate action to suppress it, it is
liable to be far more deadly than the
Asiatic cholera. Judge Zane introduced
the malady, and from him it has spread
to the editor. of the Neacs, and he will dis
seminate it to all the papers of the earth.
The editor of the Ne,gs last night said in
commenting upon the presentation of the
Declaration to the President: "He an.

friend suggests the wisdom of halt in

Nearly 800 people participated in the en-

of the gay uniforms OF officers attire with
the elegant toilets worn by the ladies
made happy blending of bright colors.
A fine supper was served at the Alta

jovial friends. Dancing continued into
