homo lifc, with those great forests at the very
door from which to draw fresh inspirations OF
nature, and in which to walk, and run, and
drive. And then have advantages in
France that one has not here excepting with
great wealth at command"
Speaking of her life at Washington, Mrs.
Chase said: II was so young and had never
had the guidance of an experienced woman
relative. I had none Of the advantages most
woman have, surrounded by mother ana SIS
ters was taken from school at IA years
and placed at the head Of my fathers estab.

the companionship Of my father were

been writing my refusal of request made by
some women that sit upon platform at a
women's suffrage meeting. You were right
not to join the compIainers,' said Mr.. Sumner
in his great deep voice. when they ap-
proach me on that subject tell them they
have my sympathy, and that when women
want to vote they will vote and no power on
earth will seek to stop Them"
The principal object of Mrs. Chases return
to this country is to confer with prominent
representative Ohioans, PARTICULAR Cincln-
natians, with regard to the removal of the re-
mains of her father, Salmon P. Chase, from
their present resting place here to Cincinnati
and the erection of a monument to him there.

A Story of Fanny Kemble.

A good story anent Fanny Kemble floats
across the horizon from the memory of an
elderly lady who knew her well. 1t was in
the time when Boston was the great actress
nominal home, and her summers were spent
here and there in rural Massachusetts,. She
had engaged worthy neighbor to be her
charioteer during the season of one of her
country sojournings, and they were setting
forth on their first excursion. With kind
hearted loquacity he was beginning to ex-
patiate on the country, the crops, and the
history of the people round about, when
Fanny remarked, in her imperious, dogmatic
fashion: "Sir. have engaged you to drive
for me, not to talk to meW

ton weeks were over and the dame was about
to return to town she sent for her Jehu and
his bill Running her eye down its awkward
columns she paused. what is this item,
sir!" said she; II cannot understand it." And
with equal gravity he rejoined: "Sass-$5
l don't often take it, but when l do, l

friends ever after-The Beacon.

Well, it has been generally supposed that
about oil of the art and invention of the
world in the matter of securing comfort for
the railway traveller have their home in the
United States, and particularly in Chicago,
and yet up in British America last week l
struck the incest thing ever saw on wheels
1t was sleeping car with bath room. 1t is
nice tub and there is plenty of room, and
oil the hot or cold water man wants, and
everything nice, clean and cozy. The charge
is only fifty cents, and during the two days
that was on the car there wasn't a passen-
ger aboard who didn't have at least one bath
a day. And every man and woman Of them
swore that the luxury would have been cheap
and desirable at double tho price. I believe
Pullman could make money by putting bath
tubs in all his cars, and just as soon as he gets
to believing this way he'll put them in. It
isn't the comfort for travellers that he cares
about, but the profits, you know, as he's run
ming his cars for oil there is in them. A good
bath tub would beat some of his gimcracks
all to pieces, so far as real comfort is con-
cerned The Canada Pacific company has

The New Postal Cards.

The new design will at once be accepted as
an improvement upon that now in use. 1t
consists of one piece of engraving instead of
two pieces, as on the present card. A head
of jefferson, a miniature portrait after the
original in the state department, occupies a
central place on the upper third of the card.
Over this head, in light letters, are the words
"United States" In panels, supported by
scroll work at the left and right, are the
words postal card" in distinct letters. I'm
der the head are the words "one cent" and
beneath the border line inclosing the designa-
ton of value is the line: Nothing but the
address to be on this side" The design is
graceful and light, and its advantage over
the old one is that the idea of putting the
stamp off at one side and the designation
of the article at the opposite side is aban-
doned to secure an exclusive design with
the strongest feature of it in the center

A PHosPHoREscENT CEMENT.
The Manifold Uses of Luminous Con
crete-Guides and Iseacons


crcte-iuides and Beacons.
A method of utilizing tho luminous powder
prepared mainly as q sulphide of calcium for
admixture with cemcnts, plaster of Paris and
concrete has been recently invented by cou-
pile of London men, the object being to pre-
pare the articles with a self-contained phos-
phorescent property instead Of coating them
with luminous paint AS an example, the
patentees take of cement, such as is known as
Keen's Parian or other suitable make, in
varying proportions, as, for instance, two
pounds to five pounds to one pound Of the
luminous powder; mix the same with water,
and then mould it to required shape in the
usual way,or lay it on to ceilings or walls by
means of a trowel
The patentees attach importance to placing
the moulded articles, as soon as they have
been dried, in bath of paraffine wax and
benzoline or other suitable weather or water
proofng substance. In the case of using the
luminous cement upon a wall or ceiling, they
sponge or brush the surface over with solu-
ton of paraffine wax and benzoline or other
suitable damp proofing solution. The uses of
a luminous cement are manifold: For the
garden-luminous concrete as edging to
garden paths and carriage drives, for guides

insides of stables, the base of balustrades, or
the entirety of balustrades. For roads-as
luminous beacons at corners of dark country
lanes, and ct the ends of bridges, ends of
walls, and curbs of footpaths. For docks
for edging of piers and wharves For water
WORKSHOP the safety and dispatch Of night
work by the erection of luminous guides and
beacons and for fire plug notices N walls. In
short, for any places where the light of day
will sufficiently excite the phosphe: esce;ia

Poetical Child of . Prosaic Mother.

Poetical Child of . Prosaic Mother.
The human race seems to have a weakness
for weather prophecy. The various signs in
which mortals put their faith are almost as
numberless as the mortals themselves On a
calm, bright day last week, with only few
flaky clouds to be seen in the distance,
a Chicago and Northwestern train was
scudding along toward Lake Geneva. In one
of the coaches was matron who was worried
about good many things, and among them
the weather.
~ do believe it's going to rain," she said,
petulantly and unpoetically; II feel it in my
bones"
ooh, no, mamma" replied 5-year-old
miss, whose nose was fattened against the
window, and whose pretty eyes were gazing
eagerly at the fitting landscape and horizon;
ooh, no, mamma, it won't rain. The clouds
are out in their nice blue and white dresses
When they have their ugly black dresses on,
then it rains Chicago Herald.

Getting Ahead Of the Tramps.


"Great time we have with tramps," said
the freight brakeman, cutting chip off the
corner Of black plug. "They are pretty sleek,
these chaps ere what like to ride and not pay
the company. We don't care much for the
company or its earnings, but it is matter of
professional pride with us not to be beat by a
deadhead. One of the sleekest games ever
knew of was played on us one morning last
week. A pair of tramps were beating their
way west, and I'll bet it would take you a
month of Sundays to guess whore they were
ridin'. In the train was fiat Car loaded with
iron water pipe, and into these pipes the old
buffers had crawled. 1t was right snug
berth. They had plenty of ventilation, the
pipes bein' open at both ends and laid length
wise Of the car, and the the sun couldn't bake
'em in the day nor the dews Of night fall on
'em.
ave couldn't git at 'em, nuther, and that
was the worst of it, If we crawled in after
em the only thing we could do was to crawl
out ogin, cause no man could pull another
one out of water pipe. We tried to poke
'em out with fence rails, but they were too
short. The tramps they cussed us an called
us all the names they could lay their dirty
tongues to, an that made us mad an we
swore we'd have 'em out O. there if we had to
dump that car of water pipe off into some
river. Just then our conductor struck an
idea. wait till we get up to Galesburg,
says he, AN then we'll fix EN- And we did
At Galesburg there's switch ingine fixed UP
with pump and hose to throw water, an we
got hold c'that ingine and turned her nozzle on
them tramps. Never had such fun in my life
Itmade me think of the time when we used to
drown woodchucks out o their holes when l
was boy l wouldn't have missed that pic
mic for a months salary. Chicago Herald
