Travelling in 100.

From an illustrated paper on $50
cial Life in the Colonies" by Edward
Eggleston, in the July Century, we
quote the following: 1.-THE Virginia
planter of the richer sort, who was
said to live with more show and luxury
than country gentleman in England
on an estate of three or four thousand
pounds year, showed a strong liking
for the stately six-horse coach, with
Positions; but it was not until 1920
that wheeled carriages were recog-
nized in the legal price-list of the Vir-
ginia ferries. In the other colonies,
also the coach was valued as sign of
official or family dignity, and some of
the richer Carolinians carried their
luxury SO far as to have carriages,
horses, cOachmen, and all, imported
from England; but in Carolina, and
everywhere north of Virginia, the light
open chair or the covered chaise was
generally preferred. These were better
suited to the roughness and sinuosity
of the roads than the coach. The
chaise was kind of two-wheeled gig,
having a top, and drawn sometimes
by one, and sometimes by two horses;
the chair had two wheels, but no top;
the sulky, which was much used,
differ from the chair chiefly in having
room for but one person. All these
seem to have been hung on straps, or
thorough braces, instead of springs.
Boston ladies in the middle of the
eighteenth century took the air in
chaises or chairs, with negro drivers.
Boston gentlemen also affected negro
attendants when they drove their
chairs or rode on saddle horses. But
in rural regions, from Pennsylvania
northward, ladies took delight in
driving about alone in open chairs, to
the amazement of European travellers,
who deemed that paradise in which
women could travel without protec-
ton. Philadelphians were fond of a
long, light, covered wagon, with
benches, which would carry dozen
persons in an excursion to the country.
Sedan-chairs were occasionally used
in the cities. The Dutch introduced
sleighs into New York at very early
date; but slelghs for pleasure, though
known in Boston about 1900, only
came into general use in the northern
provinces at q somewhat later period.
The first stage wagon in the colonies
was run from Trenton to New Bruins
wick, twice week, during the sum-
mer of 1888. 1t was a link in the
tedious land and water journey from
Philadelphia to New York, and trav-
elers were promised that il would be
fitted up with benches, and covered
over, so that passengers may sit easy
and dry"

Sabbath Observance,

On the question of Sabbath ObSer-
vance, The Boston Budget says: "What-
ever may be the view of individuals as
to the sacredness of any day, and the
duty of its strict observance, the fact
is patent that it is both impracticable
and impossible, if not unwise, to at
tempt by law to compel the observance
of the Sabbath in accordance with the
personal views of any one class of
citizens, however worthy. Each citi-
zen Is entitled to be protected in the
observance of the Sabbath in accord
ance with his convictions. The gener-
al sentiment of the Christian world
has recognized the necessity of the
suspension OF business and tho adop-
tion of a day which the large majority
accept as day of rest and for divine
worship. Our Isrealitish brethren alb
stain from general labor and business
on Saturday, and they are entitled To
protection and respect. In fact, it is
practicable, unwise, and indeed i'm
possible to regulate by law the relig-
ious observance of the Sabbath. Gen
eral regulation for the protection
of society, and for the preserva-
tion of the peace and good
order of the community, arc eminent
ly right and proper. But beyond this
it is not safe to go. Much must of
necessity be left to the convictions of
the individual citizens, and that gem
eral respect for the religious opinions
of others which forms the basis of
civil as well as religious liberty, which
after All is the best security for public
and private morality.

There seems to be great rivalry
among southern cities in regard to the
erection of expensive buildings for
young mems Christian associations.
Atlanta leads off with hall costing
100000 Nashville and Chattanooga
are trying to raise $50, 900 apiece for
this purpose, and Selma Ala, is barely
content with $25, 900.

The Curtsey Likely to Succeed Haud-Shak-
ing-Reasons for the Change.

AAkO ~ W. ooOOOOo
ing-Iseasons for the Change.
Washington Post.
The curtsey is likely to supersede entirely the
tiresome shaking of hands, of which the Ameri-
cans are so fond when welcoming a friend. 1t
has received a fashionable prestige in New y ork,
and markedly so at Mr.. Winthrop's ball,
where his daughter and her chaperone
made deep and graceful curtseys to
each of their guests as thay entered.
There was some talk here, three winters ago, of
reviving this bit of stateliness. but, as a rule, it
did not seem to exactly coincide with our ma
national expression of hospitality and friendly
feeling, and, again. as Miss Tillie Frelinghuysen
said, There are very few who can do it grace
fully"
Mrs. MacAllister Laughton can make the
most stately and sweeping curtsey. the very
embodiment of the charming manners for which
she is noted, and her ~curtseys are at once
the envy and admiration of all. Washington
ians, perhaps because of their attendance
at presidential receptions, think a shake
hands the only proper expression of civility Or
formality. and this idea is so we'll grounded that
if a lady receiving in the line with the Presi-
dents or their ladies would omit to shake hands
with each one introduced, she would Immediately
be pronounced as lacking in the qualities of o
friendly spirit which is expected to prevail there.
AS the notion now rules, a lady is expected to
shake hands with each conner, when assisting
the President, but in her own house she can re-
ylve the curtsey, with perfect freedom and
knowledge that there her intent will not be mis-
understood.

The Real Artenaus Ward.

Toronto world.
On Saturday afternoon a batch Of reporters
were catered in the World loft. Some one hay-
ing named Artemus Ward, the old gentleman
said:
"Artemus Ward was the father of Billings,
Twain and all the breed of American humorists,
funny men and comic photographers that we now
know so well. l knew Artemus, or rather Chas.
F.. Brown, as his hame really was. More
than twenty years ago he came round to
Hamilton on a l~ecturing tour. After his droll
and delightful platform address, he invited the
local reporters, of which / was one, down to the
Royal Hotel, where We put in the night in sto-
ries and other entertainments, and left with the
understanding that if any of the party ever came
across the humorist again they were to look him
up. Two years or more thereafter l was
sent to Oil Springs to write up the excitement
then pervading all Canada West over the discov-
cry of oil in Lambton county. At one of
the little temporary hotels. then crowded
with capitalists from all over. 1 saw on the regis
ter 'Artemus Ward l inquired Of the landlord
what sort of a man owned that name. The de-
s~cription did not at all tally with the humorist.
But wait and see him yourself; ne always turns
up at dinner time said the hotel man. At noon
a tall, sad-looking chap came in, and was pointed
out as Mr.. Ward. l got talking to him and
said: You are not the Artemus Ward l know
and l began to speak Of the humorist. There
upon he exclaimed:
:" L am the real Artemus Ward; that scala

while l staid there | had other talks with the
man whom Brown had immortalized. He had
been broke in the show business and had
come to Oil Springs to retrieve his fortunes.
Whether he did or not 1 never learned; but in
my experience as a reporter / had run across
both the real Artemus Ward and the great hui
morist who claimed to be his double

The Young Woman and the Telegram-The
other day a young housewife left her home
in this city to spend a few days
with several lady friends in Hamil-
ton. Before going she provided q good
supply of cold edibles for her husband, and told
him that he could help himself whenever he
was hungry. He took lunch down town and went
home in the evening for dinner. As he tells the
story, he found cold chicken, cold butter. cold
pie, cold milk, cold salt, cold mustard. and sew
eral other cold dishes, but with all that he was
not entirely satisfied, and hunted high and low
for something else. At first he did not know
what it was, but finally cocluded that he
wanted bread. He knew there was some in
the house. but he could not find it. Finally, he
concluded to telegraph his wife, for he could not
live without bread. Accordingly q telegram ask
ing: Where is the bread9p was dispatched.
