THE BABY ANARCHIST.

Around the house all day he goes,
BY baby fancies led;
lie sometimes stands upon his toes,
And sometimes on his head.
lie takes the flower pot, and all,
And puts It in his lap;
He spills the syrup in the hall
This naughty little chap.
Your silk umbrella, spick and span,
He sticks into the ratholes;
And with his mothers rarest fan
Hammers your frailes. bowls.
He ties the pendulum with a string
While singing baby song
He's always SURE to put one thing
Where something else belongs.
He'll take a match and light the cat,
He'll paint the poodle's head,
And pour frail crackers in your hat
And leave them in your bed.
Adown the register he'll throw
The spools with nimble wrist:
He's often wished in Jericho
This baby anarchist.
But never war upon him wage,
Nor whip him till he roar
Suspend him in q roomy cage,
Five feet above the floor.

How Dollar Originated.

Our word dollar dates back to
1875 when Congress passed a resolu-
ton which provided that the dollar
should be the unit of money In this
country. Relative to the origin OF
the word, I quote briefly from the
Bankers Monthly which says:
1.-THE word dollar in entered in
Baily's English dictionary in 1745.
and was used repeatedly by Shakes
peare at the beginning of the seven
teenth century, especially in Mac
BETH ii 2, 90: Till she disbursed
y ten thousand dollars to
our general use. (See also The
Tempest ii, /, ~ The question
where Shakespeare found the word
dollar is answered by the fact that
the Hanseatic town maintains a great
establishment called the Steel Yard
in London. The Steel Yard mer-
chants were mostly North Germans,
who would call the German thaler as
il was spelled, 'dah-ler.' These
same merchants occasioned the word
sterling, an abbreviation of the word
'esterling.' As the Hanseatic
trade was particularly brisk on the
Baltic in Russia, the standard coins OF
the Hanse merchants were called
esterlings, and sterling came to mean
something genuine and desirable.
The word thaler means coming
from the dale or valley the first
dollars having been coined in a
secluded valley in Germany. Their
reliability was know by being coined
in a certain valley town whore honest
weight was no doubt given"

Poetry I'm O

Ineersoll, with his critical disposition
and contempt for t~hreadbare lines OF
thought, exhibits a vein Of tenderness in
all his works.
His memorial grafton in New York is q
compound of the tender, sublime and
beautiful. In closing he repeated his
former expression:
az have one sentiment for the soldiers,
living and dead. cheers for the living,
tears for the dead"
Then followed, like an explosion Of
poetry, his final words.
A vision Of the future arises. i see

Reducing FIesh.

Every physician has his own idea
as to the best method of reducing
flesh. Bismarck, once very stout,
reduced himself according to the
Schwenninger method. The plan
consisted essentially in dry diet.
He was not allowed to drink anything
during meals nor for two hours and
q half afterward. Al the expiration
of that time he was allowed to drink
freely. By that time his food was
digested and the fluids were
readily absorbed and carried to the
kidneys, and served to wash out the
system. Schwenninger also re-
stricts the patient to one food at a
time in case of extreme obesity.
For instance, if he should take meat
he could have nothing but meat.
II he took bread nothing but bread.
and SO with potatoes or anything be
chose.

Greatest Immigration on Record

Greatest Immigration IN Record.
A brief review of the statistics oil
immigration shows 5000. 900 aliens
have landed at New York since 1847.
and of these 5000, 900 have been
landed here since 1880. This year
there have already been landed
179, 900, and over 1876, 900 have come
in since April l.. The number
landed at Castle Garden this month
will be as great as the total number
in the year 1878, and much larger
than that of either of the years 1866
or 1867. During week before last
there were landed thirty ships bring
ing 22,669 steerage immigrants. 1t
is probable this will be the greatest
year on record for immigration.

STATE OF WYOMING.
"A Bill Introduced for the Admis
sion of Wyoming.


sion of Wyoming.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The bill in
troduced to-day by Mr.. Carey, of Wyo-
ming, for the formation and admission
into the Union of the state of Wyoming,
provides that the governor of the terri
tory shall order an election for the Sc
lection of delegates to form state con-
stitution, but the election shall not be
held previous to June l, 1889. The con-
StitutiOnal convention under the pro-
visions of the bill will consist of about
sixty members. The bill further pro-
vides for a grant of land to the state for
school purposes to the amount of $780,
600 acres, 100 sections of land for an
agricultural college, so sections
for public buildings. % sections for
penitentiary, eand ten sections for an in
sane asylum. The bill also provides for
grant to the state of 6,000,000 of acres
of arid lands on condition that the state
shall reclaim or cause said lands to be
reclaimed, and that the state shall not
part with its title to any subdivision of
said lands until the reclamation is COM
pleted. MI. Carey says the territory is
as well prepared for state government
as fifteen states were at the date OF their
admission, that the territory without
congressional aid supports compulsory
school system and maintains free uni
versity; that the territory is well pro-
vlded with good courts and school
houses; that it takes care of its insane
and cOnvicts: that the territory annually
expends for the support of territorial
and municipal governments, the support
of public schools and public improve
mentS 100000, and that the general
government does not contribute OH an
average more than $4,000. The bound
aries of the proposed state are the same
as those of the territory.
