A Business Like Young Woman.

There is a young girl down in MissiS

Bome one gave her 5 cents one day. She
went at ono to a dry goods store, bought

Ten Hours of sleep

james Payn, the novelist and CORE
spondent, has come TO the &C aclusicn that
the only salvation Of our writers and
literary classes in general les in going to
bed early, getsing ten hours of sleep, and
understanding that brain work needs
more complete and certain regeneration
than ordinary physical labor. The Office
and necessity of sleep is getting to be bet
ter appreciated. Little is heard nova

At a fair In Wray, Washington county,
was an exhibit Of eastern Colorado agri.
cultural products. 1t was a creditable
display and showed that the farms Of
that part Of the state are producing good
crops in spite Of the assertion that all OF
the rain belt region is burnt up.
This is the third year Of success in
farming without irrigation on the plains.
The most skeptical must be convinced
from the experiences Of these three years
that the experimental stage Is passed,
and that .'rain belt farming may be
depended upon.
The farmers in the vicinity Of Wray
are not the only men who have met with
success, for exhibits are made Of pro-
ducts grown near Akron and Yuma.
Both of these places are centcrs Of aSri-
cultural districts that have been tested
during the past three years and found 10
be worthy of the praise that was given
them three years ago by the more con-
s~eryative settlers who have made their
homes there.
The truth seems TO be that, except
among the sand hills, the whole of the
plains lying within seventy-five or one
hundred miles west of the Kansas line
are susceptible of cultivation without ir'
rigation. denver Republican.

MaImaison Going 20 Pieces.

Malmaison, the famous chateau of the
III fated Josephine de Beauharnais, is
simply going by piecemeal to the dogs,
or rather to the rats, and it has been ad-
mirably suggested that the place should
be converted into a museum containing
historical relics Of the first empire. In
the beginning Of the present summer
Malmaison was offered for sale at an
upset price of $40, 600, but no bidder
could be found. The park is now let out
in small lots TO builders, and .hideous
villas are rising around the chateau. The
two facades Of the mansion-that OF the
courtyard and of the garden-are intact,
hut the interior is like a barn. The salon
Of Josephine still exists, with its mural
decorations of birds and gilt flowers, and

Bombzstic STYLE Of ROYALTY.

The terms in which these ancient

Against the African Slave Trade.

Cardinal Laviegerie's crusade against
the African slave trade is already pro-
ducing good fruit. The war against the
Arab slave s~tealers in Central Africa has
begun in earnest. Twenty-six white
men, with several hundred native allies,
will soon take the field against this
Arabian traffic in human flesh. The
missionaries in Africa have taken sides
with the leaders of this humane move
ment and are using voice and influence
TO rally the natives against the Arabs.
There is no doubt that a well organized
movement will follow and that in u little
while slave trading in Africa will he an
extremely dangerous business. But the
campaign against the Arabs will by no
means be mere boy play. The Arabs are
well stockaded and armed and it will re-
quire some hard fighting TO get them out.

A Noted Pair Of Dwarf

Early in the century a brother and sis.
ter attracted great attention for small
ness Of stature. They were Of Polish
birth, and were ''people Of great accom-
plishments and elegant manners" When
the brother, Count Borowlaski, was one
year old he measured fourteen inches in
height. Five years later, be had gained
but three inches, but at the age of 20 had
reached to thirty-three inches; at 30 the
measurement was six inches more, and
then growth ceased. His sister Anas.
tasia, Seven years younger, could stand
under her brothers arm. The count
lived to be almost 100.-Harper's Bazaar.

Peculiar Form Of Hysteria-

DR.. Richardson mentions a case of a
young woman attending a consumptive
patient and was so impressed with the
paroxysms Of coughing that she began to
initiate them. The imitation was per-
feet and continued two years. her friends
believing she had consumption, though
not a sign of it existed in her lungs. At
last she suddenly recovered. 1t was only
hysteria of a peculiar form. Now many
similar cases are cured, and from this the
doctor thinks he has found the secret Of
arresting this malady.-M. L. Holbrook,

Every one has by heart those charm

to Mary Hewitt, and naturally, for they
are always published over her name.
Mrs. Hewitt was a charming writer of

is guilty of the sin Of plagiarism. The
verses are adapted with but little change

Voices on our hearts come stealing
Like celestial airs,
To our spirit sense revealing

A scientific gentleman not very long
ago declared it impossible that the tallest
sea wave could exceed six feet. because.
he added, the most furious tempest has
not a penetrating power beyond that
depth. n is to be supposed that he was
never of Cape Horn, and that he based
his theories ON the disturbance during a
breezy hour Of the surfaces of the Round
pond and the Regents canal. Dr.
Scoresby pronounced the seas Of the At
lantic during heavy weather to run to a
height of from forty TO forty-fiye feet.
This may well be regarded as a great sea,
but it would be interesting to know the
elevation of the waves Of the south
Pacific in high ATTITUDES during a hurri-

The Education of the Presidents,

President Cleveland, says Frank G..
Carpenter, never went to college, and
Washington, jackson, Van Buren, Tay-
lor, Fillmore, Lincoln and johnson had
no college training. John Adams was
educated at Harvard. Thomas Jefferson
studied Latin at William and Mary, and
Madison probably used pony translations
while he was at Princeton. Monroe and
Tyler were also students at William and
Mary, at Williamsburg. and John
Quincy Adams graduated at Harvard.
Harrison was college bred. Pierce was G
good mathematical student at Bowdoin
College, and Buchanan went to school
at Dickinson College. Gen. Grant was
the only President who had a military
education, thougha number of the Presi-
dents were soldiers. He went to school
at West Point. Rutherford Hayes was
educated in Ohio, and his school was
Kenyon College. Garfield studied at
Williams, Massachusetts, and President
Arthur was schoo ell at Union College.
