| AT last the public mind Is relieved of the
responsibility of deciding whether or not
Secretary Manning will resume his duties.
After every one has been bordering and
discussing the question for six months, and
recommending the reasons why each course
should be pursued, Mr.. Manning it is re-
ported, has finally settled the matter by
quietly saying that he will return to Wash
ington and TO his Office in a few days. In
physical appearance he seems to be in as
good health as he was when he undertook
the management of c Treasury Depart
ment; and his slight limp is the only sign
of his recent illness. Still, as it is feared
that the resumption of his duties may bring
On another attack land second would prob

very gradually, and incur no risks. AT
frst he will confne himself merely to
general supervision of the department. He
will attend Cabinet meetings to give the

tiles CT the office to his assistants. At best
it is only trial, bit it is believed that he
will remain in the Cabinet until Congress

lie is very busy now, investigating the
cases Of Federal Office holders who have
disobeyed the order directing them not to
take any part in political meetings. There
have been not a few violations Of. this rule
and the President, in speaking on the sub
ject, expresses himself with great indigna-
ton.
Washington has improved very much
during the summer. A force of workmen
have been occupied putting the Capitol
building and grounds in order ever since
Congress adjourned. New trees and shrubs
been laid in the beautiful parks, the Amer
icas "Camus d'Elysees,' that surround the
building. The latter has been painted with

titled, it is almost ready for the reception of
our law makers. The smooth green terraces
which formerly surrounded it on three sides
are given place to superb marble porticos,
which will add greatly to the imposing eff.
feet; and the proposed grand staircase on
the west front will be another great i'm
provement. The Capitol in fact is turned

but when Pennsylvania Avenue was stretch

Executive Mansion built at its other end,
all the elegant and fashionable homes at
once sprung up in that section of the city

iously turned its back. 1t is intended to

Rebuked with q Joke.

A young lady one day very impoliesr
y asked a gentleman how old he was.
He seemed rather surprised at the
question but good-humore edly replied:
IF live to see the 3Oth of next Feb
yuary I will be IS years old This
vas news to the girl, as he didn't seem
b be over 50. SO when she got home
the first thing she said to her mother
Was:
~Say, ma, how old do you think Mn
Reid is ?"
"Oh; I dunno. About 45 or 30.
"He's Is years old.
"Oh, pshaw, Mabel! Who told you
hat?"
@He did himself. He said If he lived
to see the 3Oth of next February he
would be IS years old. My; amt he
young looking?"
YES, he is right; there are only
twenty-eight days in next February,
answered her ma, after q moments de.

PARENTS AND CHILDREN.
How to CIothe Children.

Every one will observe that q favorite
article of winter clothing for children
is comforter swathed around the neck,
This is great error; the feet and the
wrists are the proper members to keep
warm; the face and throat will harden
into q healthy Indifference to cold; but
that muller, exchan5 ed for an extra
pair of thick socks and knitted gloves,
would preserve a boy or girl really
warm and well. Bronchitis and sore
throat have declined % per cent. since
the absurd use of high collars and
twice around neckerchiefs went out of
fashion; and if the poor would take
better care of their children's feet, half
the infantile mortality would disappear.
1t only costs tritle to put a piece of
thick felt or cork into the bottom of a
boot or shoe, but the difference is often
considerable between that and doc
tors bill, with perhaps the undertaker's,
besides des,-Erchange.

Summer Life in Buffalo.

While no one would dare to advance
claim for Buffalo in the months of
March and April, she has thousand
charms as summer home. With a
turn of the faucet one may drink of or
plunge IN the cool waters of the upper
lakes. The fruit and vegetables on
the breakfast table come fresh and
crisp each morning from the market
gardens about the city. The fish were
caught before daylight from the depths
Of Niagara, and the beefsteak selected
from the herds waiting transportation
at the East Buffalo stock yards, where
larger moneyed transactions on cash
basis take place daily than in any other
quarter OF the city. The roses and the
lilies which brighten the morning meal
were plucked in the door ward. If the
resident be a man Of some leisure and
foad of horsetesh, he takes an early
morning turn behind his flyer around
the Driving Park, one of the best and
fastest tracks in the country, and IA
nous in trotting annals as the scene of
DeHter's and Goldsmith Maids best
time. The yearl meet on these
grounds tie first week in August brings
q crowd OF horsemen and racers to the
city. The Driving Park Association
own an elegant clubhouse, in the old
colonial style, from the verandas of
which there is fine view over the city
to the lake and the river
The old resident who has somewhat
thrown off the cares of active business,
visits his Office summer mornings to
read his letters and give directions to
his clerks, then steps aboard his steam
yacht with party Of friends. After
good haul of black bass, on the river,
he drops anchor at Falcoln Wood to
join his neighbors and their wives, or
perhaps members of his own family,
whom the club boat has brought down
earlier in the day, at q six-o'clock din
ner. The yachts are headed up stream
just at the twilight hour, when the out
lines of the Canada shore, across which
tall poplar trees throw their shadows,
are fading into indistinctness, and
make their dock at the famous ! ort
Erie Ferry. where coaches are waiting
to take the summer iders home by
way of the park boulevards.
This sketch of summer life would be
Incomplete without the suggestion that
Lake Erie's zephyrs have SO tempered
the heated midsummer atmosphere
that blanket tends to promote the
luxurious slumbers which follow the
evening hours spent in the piazza with
ones neighbors. The popularity of
this form Of pleasuring was voiced by
the Buffalonian who said, when I
build, shall build q veranda, with
possibly house attached. ."-Jane NJ.
