Nicolini asks $50. 900 for her recreans husband,
which is a big price for a tenor who can do nothing
but play billiards.
ATALL man sat with his wide brimmed hat on at a
Texan concert, and when commanded to remove it he
said: It'll be worse if I do" but those behind him
insisted that he should uncover. He did so, and a
mass of bristling hair stood stifiy out from his head
in all directions, like the starched locks of imitation
Circassian girls in museums. Il told you it'd be
worse if L did, he remarked.
Two great social leaders and polite and friendly
rivals at Newport are Mrs. Belmont and Mrs. ker-
nochan. They have each cottages near together, and
they each receive on Sunday afternoons. If one has a
foreign minister, the other is sure to have an English
beauty. One allows smoking and the other does not,
There is also much rivalry in dress and in the in

ment.
SAvAGEs when pleased smile and make gestures
indicative of the pleasure of eating. Petherick says
the natives on the upper Nile rubbed their
bellies when he showed them beads. The Australians,
says Leichhardt, smacked their lips and clacked their
tongues when they saw his horses and kangaroo-dogs,
while the Greenlanders. according to Cranz, when
they affirm anything with pleasure suck down the air
with a queer sound.
The white heather, of which Princess Beatrice's
bridal bouquet was made. does not differ, except in
color, from that which covers the Highland hills, but
in its virgin wilderness it stands out among great
clumps of purple like a tiny spray of snow. They say
in the far north that when the sheep, hardy devourers
of the tender stem of the heather, come across it in
their grazing, they avoid harming it, and that grouse
have never been known to crush it with their wings.
A GENTLEMAN just from Europe says that ex-At-
torney-Geaeral Brewster has purchased some mar
velous old china to add to the fabulous stores which
used to make his dinner tables "a thing of beauty"
the same plates never reappearing after being used for
one course. Among the treasures is a set of Sevres
dessert plates that formerly belonged to Louis Phil
ippe, and other bits of historic ware appear on his
table. All of the silver bears the Brewster crest, and
and much of the heavy old plate is of ancient designs
that tell a history by themselves. Anthins like his
old Venetian and Bohemian glassware is rarely met
with on dinner tables, andinto his qnaint old glasses
there are poured some remarkable wines.

The passing of Arthur was hardly a cir
cumstance to the passing of. Lancelot Sulli-
van, on his way down from Boston to punch
the head of the naughty Mccartney. From
the classic shades of Boston, from under the
walls of Harvard, he passed to the historic
fields of Massachusetts. Speeding still, he
and his train crossed the domain of Rhode
Island and Connecticut. BY the beautiful
Hudson he passed, yet stopped not nor staid.
Nor city, nor town, nor hamlet, nor quiet
country place; nor bleating of sheep nor low
ing of kline tempted him. The wide reaching
meadow marshes of New Jersey and the
rugged hills of Pennsylvania passed on either
side, but he needed not, nor did he raise his
kingly head when his r~etainers came and told
him how the multitude pressed about his car.
Only at Pittsburg did he deign to notice the
slavish homage paid him. There he gracious
ly condescended to appear and to favor them
with the sound of his voice. Great was the
enthusiasm among the honest people, and
they fain would have kissed his hand but that
he would not SO humiliate himself. And the
news of his coming spread afar, so that his
advent into own was made among swarming
masses Of admiring humanity. And so it was
that Sullivan, the mighty, went down to meet
the champion Of the Philistines. And to-
morrow will he smite him and lay him low,
and thousands will clap their hands and lift
up their voices in great acclaim at the match
less prowess and glory of this man. But
others still will stand afar eff and %sullenly
wag their heads and smite their breasts and
say: "Is this American? Is this our boosted

In a lengthy article upon prohibition, Rev.
Daniel Curry, the veteran Methodist editor,
writes of one phase of the movement in a
manner that will evoke hearty approval
from a great many earnest and sincere friends
of prohibition. He says:
'1tneed not be called in question hat there
are some able, earnest and honest workers in
the cause among the professional and gener-
ally recognized leaders, but it is equally GER
tain that there are enough among them of a
different kind, who do not command the pub
lie confidence, and under whose leadership not
much good can be accomplished. For lack of
the needed organization and the requisite
oversight Of the work of temperance proua-
gandism, there is a constant liability that it
may be made to suffer from the presence and
superserviceableness of a whole swarm
of hangers-on-some Of them sim
ply cranks seeking notoriety, and some
charlatans and mountebanks, with their
own selfish and often disreputable purposes to
serve. No doubt that fact has tended more
than it should have done to deter those who
must lead in this work, if it shall succeed,
from engaging in it. 1t may be both a deli
cate and a difficult work to weed out these
tares, as here suggested; but it is indispensa-
ble to the success of the cause. The interests
of both personal temperance-that is, total alb
stinence-and of prohibition require very con-
siderable notifications of the methods chiefly
in use, and especially of the recognized lead
ership of the whole movement. This some
body must attend to, if success is to be
achieved"

The Best Cholera Preventive.

The thorough cooking of food and the scrupu-

THE balm of Gilead, administered by Hon.
John Sherman, is a nauseous dose to those
super6ne and sensitive souls who cannot bear
to be told that there was any principle in
volved in the late war, and who rush with
eager haste, hat in hand, to welcome to power
the men who sing the praises of Jefferson Davis
in the United States Senate. We feared this
would be the case. One Of our esteemed con-
temporaries is puzzled in its little heart to
know whether Mr.. Sherman or the Repub
lican party is going to seed, while still
another mournfully remarks that "those who
looked for a statesmanlike utterance from Sen
ator Sherman will have to turn away from his
Mount Gilead speech with the reflection that
there is no balm for the people, no ply
stefan for the party" This is intensely
sad; yet the fact is that Mr.. Sherman made
his speech for full-grown men to read-men
who have backbone, and who are not afraid to
say that the spirit that eulogizes jefferson
Davis in the United States Senate, and which
lowers the national flag to half-mast over pub
lie buildings at the death of a despicable
traitor and scoundrel like Jacob Thompson, is
not one to be encouraged if the future of free
government is to be conserved. Mr.. Sher-
man appeals to the men of the country, not to
the manikins.
