a copy of him, then, is no longer to give
him his few pennies. It is to give him
the whole price of the paper. It is all
profit to him, and is to encourage hard,
very hard work
Much better are the venders situated
who offer the papers at fixed news stands.
These stands are selected on distinct
principles, the chief of which is that the
foot passengers are very numerous and
are business men. Some of these stands
yield a handsome income. A favorite
spot of this kind is at the foot of the
staircases which lead to the elevated rail
road station at the City Hall Square.
Some of the women who sell papers there
are said to have accumulated fortune.
At the west staircase entrance n mother
and daughter are stationed. MARY"
the daughter, brunette of sixteen sum
mers, is quite favorite with tho male
passengers. She sells more papers than
any other single street vender in the city.

The Hare in the Moon.

When the moon is waxing from the
eighth day to the full, it requires no very
vivid imagination to descry on the west
ward side of the lunar disk large patch
very strikingly resembling a rabbit or
hare. The llindus have the following
legend in relation TO it:
In former days hare, a monkey,
coot and fox became hermits, and lived
in wilderness together after having
sworn not to kill any living thing. The
god Sakkria accordingly determined to
try their faith. Taking the form of a
Brahmin, he first appeared before the
monkey, of whom he asked aims. That
worthy promptly brought bunch of man
goes and presented to him. The pre-
tended Brahmin, having left the monkey,
went to the coot and made the same re-
quest, who presented him a row of fish
which he had just found on the bank Of
q river, evidently forgotten by fisher
man. The Brahmin then went to the
fox, who imme lately went in search of
food, and soon returned with a pot of
milk and dried lignan, which he had
found in plain where they had been
left by herdsman. The Brahmin at
last went to the hare and begged aims of
him. The hare said: Friend, 1 eat
nothing but grass, which is, think, of
no use to you" Then the pretended
Brahmin replied:
"Why, friend, if you are true her
NIT, you can give me your own flesh in
hope of future happiness" The hare
promptly consented. The Brahmin kim
died fire at the foot Of the rock, into
which the hare jumped to prove the hon
esty of his purpose. Whereupon The god
Sakkria took the hare in his arms and
Immediately drew its figure into the
moon, in order that every living thing of
every part of the world might see it. The
fable certainly suggests a noble idea of
self sacrifice.

Sunday I'm London.

Sunday is dull day in the teeming
world of London. At this time of the
year the business portion-known as the
city-is almost deserted on the Sabbath,
but the railroad stations are crowded
morning and evening by the excursion
lists rushing out of town for fresh air and
returning weary and beery to prepare for
the morrows toll. 1t is estimated that
there are 2, 900, 900 of people in London
who never go to church. Fully 100, 900
leave on the cheap trains for the sub
urban pleasure resorts between and 8
\. NJ. Fifty thousand more crowd the
steamboats, plying on the Thames between
Kew and Gravesend. The angling clubs
numbering several thousand members,
march with full paraphernalia to the
various depots-or stations as they are
called here-attracted by the cheap day
tickets issued by the companies to points
on the Thames, the Lea, the Coine, the
Wey and other accessible streams. They
generally take their families with them,
and the wife, carrying the lunch basket,
is constant companion of the man with
his fishing pole and "blacking box" which
serves the double purpose of seat and a
receptacle for tackle and bait. A full
million of Londoners spend the day in
eating, drinking and gossip with their
friends in their dingy, ill-lighted homes.

An UnweIcome Ornament.

Nature occasionally iDdulges in curious
freaks upon the human body, and in
freaks which sometimes are a sad draw
back to the personal appearance. What,
for instance. can well be more distressing
than for a comely matron of middle age
to discover that horns similar to a rams
horns are growing upon her head, and to
be obliged to allow them to grow until
they reach a size which prevents her hid
ing the deformity with any cap, hat OF
bonnet7 The lady thus afflicted is q
Frenchwoman, and her curious case has
been reported to the Academy of Medi-
cine. She had reached her fortieth year
when the first horn made its unwelcome
appearance on her forehead. 1t was
shortly followed by second, which,
however, fell off Of itself after attaining
the length of twenty-four centimetres;
but the first remained, to the great in
convenience of the poor woman, who was
by it prevented from resting her head
comfortably on a pillow. Ultimately a
surgical operation was undergone, and
the Objectionable ornament was removed.
The patient recovered her health and
peace of mind, but not for long. Six
months after the operation another horn
began to grow precisely on the same spot,
the latest news given the Academy of
Medicine concerning it being that 1t had
reached the length of five centimetres,
and bid fair to grow rapidly. The phe-
nomenon, it seems, is rare one, but
cases of the kind are not unheard Of

Principles of Sea. Bathing.

Sea bathing, when properly and care
fully INDUCED in, is a most health giving
and enjoyable diversion. But few broad
principles should be remembered. Never
bathe within two hours of a meal never
when oyertired and exhausted, and never
when oyerheated. At the same time the
body should be warm, and not cold, when
you plunge in. DO not remain in the
water long enough to become tired or
chilly, and when you come OUT dress
qnicklY. 1t should also be remembered
that bathing does not agree with every
body. Those who feel faint or giddy in
the water or whose heart begins to beat
overmuch, should consult doctor who
is thoroughly acquainted with their con-
stltutions, before they enter the water
again. Medical papers say that many
oil the bathing fatalities which have been
generally attributed 10 "cTamp" are
really due to failure of the hearts action,
induced by the plunge into cold water,
and aggravated by swimming. good
result Of the bath ought TO make the
bather feel warm and fresh. If, instead,
shiyering and cold ensue, harm is being
done. Children should not be forced
into sea baths, for their reluctance may
be occasioned by some constitutional
drawback testifying that the process is
harmful to them. - Popular Science

Bouquets Under Water.

The following, taken from VicEs
Magazine, is a description of the process
by which bouquet of flowers may be
preserved fresh for a long time:
A vessel of water is required; the YES
sci should be large enough to allow the
submersion in it of plate or dish hold
ing the bouquet to be preserved, and a
bell glass to cover the bouquet. The
dish or plate should contain no moss or
other material; the water should be linn
pid and quite pure. Place the plate at
the bottom of the water, and on the plate,
submerging it, place the bouquet, which
is maintained in an upright position by a
weighted base previously attached to it.
This being done, the bouquet is covered
with a bell glass, the rim of which ought
to fit exactly to the fat part of the plate /;
the bell glass should be entirely filled
with water, and without the least air
bubble
Then all are raised together, plate,
bouquet and bell glass filled with water,
and placed on a table, carefully wiping
the exterior, but leaving on the plate
around the base of the bell glass, a little
provision of water, which prevents the
entrance of air. The flowers in this con.
dition will be preserved in all their fresh.
ness for several weeks, and their beauty
is increased by a great number of bub-
bles Of gas, produced by the respiration
of the leaves, and hich attach them
selves to the petals, appearing like pearls.
The edge Of the plate and the water that
it contains should be concealed by a
light bed Of moss, in which are set some
other flowers In the evening by arti-
fetal light, a bouquet thus arranged pro-
duces a charming effect.

Letters Oddlr Addressed.

Many oddly addressed letters daily
pass through the post offices. Several Of
the rhymng kind arc somewhat remark.
able for the poetical skill displayed by
the writers.
A clever example is given in the fol-
lowing, addressed TO Sir Walter Scott
during one of his visits to London:
"Sir Walter Scott, in London or elsewhere;
he needs not ask, whose wide-extended
fame
Is spread about our earth, like light and air,
A local habitation for his name.n
Charles Dibdell, the naval-song writer,
sent letter to Mr.. Hay bearing the fol-
lowing address:
"Postman, take this sheet away,
And carry it to Mr.. Hay;
And whether you ride mare or colt on,
Stop at the Theatre; Bolton,
If in what county you inquire,
Merely mention Lancashire"
A letter addressed as follows was
mailed in the provinces, and was duly
delivered in London:
"Where London's column pointing to the
skies,
Like a tall bully lifts it's head and lies,
There lives n citizen of sober fame,
A plain, good man, and Balaam is his name"
The letter was delivered without delay
to Mr.. Balaam, fishmonger near the
Monument.
Turning from poetry to prose- we find
the following vague direction:
''AIr. -, Travelling Band, one of the four
playing in the street, Persia Pershore),
Worcestershire. Please find him if pos
sible."
Another envelope bore the following:
"This is for the young girl that wears specta-
cles, who minds two babies 80 Sheriff
street, off Prince Edward street, Liverpool"
Mr.. ]. Wilson Hyde, in his book,
1.-THE Royal Mail" says that two letters
directed as follows were duly delivered:
'To my sister Jean, Up the Canongate, Dom
Close, Edinburgh. She has a wooden
leg.
The other was directed:
'My dear Ant Sue as lives in the Cottage by
the Wood near the New Forest"
''In the latter case" says Mr. Hyde,
"the letter had to feel its way about for
day or two, but ANT Sue was found
living in cottage near Lyndhurst.-

A BLACK WAR CLOUD
The Car and the Kaiser Are
Billing and Cooing.
AUSTRIA ALIVE WITH WAR FEELING.
An Austrian General Thinks Big Guns
Will Be Used-A Sensation That
is the Talk OF the Hour in
Europe.

LONDON, June "a dispatch from Vienna
states that there is much curiosity and
speculation in military and court circles
over the loSe-making which is becoming
obvious between Germany and Russia. The
Car recently sent handsome casket. which
was received by the Kaiser on the day when
he completed the spring review Of the Bsr-
lin garrison, and it was designed to signalize
that event The aged Kaiser was much i'm
pressed by this incident, and said there was
nothing of which he was so proud as his
splendid troops and his ability 10 review
them He Immediately wrote a most aifec-
iionate letter, which he signed with his own
hand aud forwarded to the Gar by an
imperial messenger. More recently he
has teaSted the Russian ainbas-
sador at his own family table.
But 10 crown all comes the announcement
that the Gar and the Kaiser are making ar
rangements for formal meeting, probably
at one of the German spas next autumn.
Austria realizes that this conference, COM
prsng as il does the monarchs of two out
of three natiODalities which have composed
the triple or holy alliance will be the pub
lie announcement of the final extinction of
that alliance. This does not exactly suit
the Austrian Emperor who would much
prefer that his country might be dropped
from the alliance with, at least greater
show OF deliberatiOn. To this end the
Austrian Emperor had some months
ago arranged for meeting of
the crown princes of the three EN-
pires next fail to take the place of the
customary meeting of their fathers. Such
a meeting would be farcial for the purpose
of settling any of the grave plans OF Europe,
for the reason, among others. that the Rus
sian Crown Prince is only boy of eighteen.
The proposal, however was accepted by
Germany and Russia, and IL was supposed
that this princey meeting would keep alive
the belief in the MOribund tribunal alliance.
The news that the Gar and Kaiser pro-
pose TO meet by themselves causes excite
ment and no little fear lest they may
agree upon the Cars most earnest
wish - war in the Balkans. The
military officers in Vienna act as though
| they were certain war would be declared to-
| morrow All leaves of absence except sick
leave have been countermanded and the
military clubs are swarming with officers
| They say they believe that the Russians are
| fully ready To attack old bulgaria by march
| through ROumania but they would be IN
/ tercepted and routed with great slaughter as
soon as they had got far enough into ROu-
mania to make them worth attacking This
view is not entertained alone by the younger
officers but is shared to some extent by
veteran generals. This is encouraged by an
event this evening in one of the clubs A
dashing young captain said TO a grizzled
| veteran:
well. General, are We going to have wal
this timer
you mustn't believe" the General said
"all you hear. my boy, but this is a good
tine for Australia to look after her big fielC
guns and to keep her powder dry"
