All About Fam.

From the Dry Goods Chronicle.

exceedingly small coin 'made on purpose" for
charity presented to him the tip OF the ran. In
ancient times, among Greeks and Romans fans
seem TO have been enormous; they were generally
made OF feathers, and carried by saves over the
heads OF their masters and mlstresses to protect
them from the sun, or waved about before them to
stir the air. Catherine de Medici carried the FIRST
folding fan ever seen In France and In the time OF
Louis XIV the fan was gorgeous thing, often COW
cred with jewels, and worth a small fortune. In
England they were the fashion In the time Of
Henry Will fan set In diamonds was once given
TO Queen Elizabeth upon New Years day. The
Mexican feather fans, which Cortez had from
Montezuma, were marvels OF beauty, and In Spain
a large black fan 1, the favorite. IL is said that
the use or fan is as refully taught In that coun

From the Boston Herald
II was at the Institute Of Technology few
days before the close Of the term One OF the pro-
fessors had been troubled by hearing some Of the
students INDUCING in slang. Accordingly, when
his class had assembled to hear his lecture, he
gave them ten-minute discourse on the use OF
slang, told them how IL was c0rrupting the Ian.
guage, and that Its use was among persons OF
cultivation and refinement sure sign OF III
breeding. Then he went on with his regular lsc-
ture, and at its close called the attention OF his
class to tho fact that some Of them had been re-
miss In their studies. and that II behooved them
TO make up for lost time, or they would fan 70
pas the approaching examinattons. sTne fact
Is" he concluded, '.you've got to brace up or
you1l get LETT" which shows that preaching ana

Hand Versus steam.

THE WORK on THE BUREAU OF ENGRAvrSa AND PRINT.
ne DISCUSSED IN THE HOUSE,.
While the sundry civil appropriation bin was un.
der consideration In the House to-day, Mr. Far.
quhar moved to strike out tho clause putting
limitation upon the number OF plate printers
and assistants to be employed in the Bureau Of
Engraving and Printing, Mr.. FarQuhar contended
that the clause warranted q further extension OF
steam for hand work.
Mr.. Randall denied that the clause was suscept.
iole 70 the construction placed upon It by Mr..
FarQuhar.
After considerable debate an amendment was
adopted providing that no part OF the money ap-
proprated shall be used for the purchase Of steam
presses and none OF It used for the payment Of
royalty, except for the presses now In use.
quite discussion followed on the proposition to
strike out the limitation placed upon the lumber
OF plate-printers and assistants 70 be employed.
MT Randall suggested that II the Limitation were
stricken Out under political or other pressure, an
excessive number might be employed, and the APP
preparation might be exhausted before the end Of
the fiscal year.
The motion TO strike out the limitation upon the
numoer OF plate printers to be employed was
rejected, as was motion Of Mr.. White to increase
the pay OF assistants from &l50 to So per day.

TWO FALSE PROPHETS,

The Overland Monthly for July prints
two papers, one by r. F. Adams and one
by T. NJ. Campbell, both well-known edu-
Gators, both advancing arguments" against
the wisdom and feasibility Of the State
compiling and printing the textbooks for
the common schools. The arguments"
are Of the Scissors order. When no
longer able to shout the word, the gossip
went beneath the waves with her index
and middle fingers elevated and moving
in imitation of the motion of pair Of
shears. So it Is with the two essayiS,s /;
the whole matter has been settled and
passed into constitutional law; it is now
part and parcel of the organic Act, and
one Of its best parts, and dear to the peo-
pie; the books have been mostly compiled
and are now in use by the schools. We
are rid of the book-agentS, and the ohink of
of the Eastern publishers gold Is heard no
more in the School Boards The schemes
OF the book syndicates have disappeared
from local politics, and school officers
breathe freely again. Yet here come two
men out of the ark. assail system that is
precious to the people, and owlishly prate
of the impossibiIity of the State doing
what it has done, wisely and we'll
Mr.. Campbell, however, takes the more
am sing position Of the two al am
pro'ectionist," he declares, and therefore
he g in favor of all hands and the cook
having chance in the free scramble for
the spoils of the book business. Let us
see how Mr.. Campbell hangs together. If
he is for the old system because he is a
protectionisi, how about the free trade of
the book rings which grew fat upon the
higher prices the people had to pay for
books? How about the home labor the
making of the books employ How about
the money saved to the people by their
doing their own work and eliminating the
middle men of the Bastf How about the
peace and quiet assured them compared
with the annoyance Of the past by reason

corruptly in every school district and
legislative lobby? Is it not protection to
the people of California that their brains
are engaged to compile from the free
knowledge Of earth the books they use;
and that their sons and daughters are en-
ployed to print and bind the volumes,
and that the parents are enabled to buy
them at a greatly reduced figure? What
do these two echoes from a dead past
mean? Are they all significant of an at
tempt to belittle the effort of the people
to strike for freedom, and use it? Are
they seconds to the conspiracy on foot to
crush the school-book system that other
communities may not profit by our ex-
ample? Has this two-headed assault any
connection with the endeavor to whip
about the law by introduction of Supple
mental" books? However, we wish to
treat these gentlemen fairly, and assuming
them to be sincere in their views, we are
still convinced that they serve the inter
eSts-however unwittingly-of Eastern
book syndicates that have everything at
stake in preventing the success of the
California system. For if California
breaks the back OF the book ring, as she is
now doing, score of other States will
following her example. Both Mr. Adams
and Mr.. Campbell quote figures and make
statements that involve questions of verify
These deserve to be examined carefully,
and we propose to refute the statements in
distinct article. Therein we will ex-
pose the illogical methods the two educa-
tors pursue to reach conclusion that is
sought to sustain their regulations as
prophets, since both opposed the constitu-
tonal amendment and forecast for it

THE NEXT vICE-PRESIDENT.

Mr. Morton's candidacy will not strengthen
the ticket with the farmers. II is not forgotten
that he failed to rehabiitate the American hog
at the Court of France"
Indeed. Well, the truth of the matter
Is that he did all that was possible to be
done. He brought President Grew and
his entire Cabinet over to the American
view of the question When it came to
the Chamber of Deputies however, the
Monarchists and obstructionists of all
shades, enemies of all Republics, united to
give the greatest of Republics blow, and
they killed the Cabinet bill. Just then
MIR. Morton was recalled to give place to a
successor chosen by President Cleveland.
The idea that any man with wit enough to
breathe will oppose Mr.. Morton because he
could not down a Chamber of Deputies
that shortly after overthrow President
Grevy and his Cabinet, is too absurd to be
entertained for a moment The fact is
DIR. Morton, by consummate tact, by re-
moving the Legation to popular quarter,
by broad personal hospitality, by his
knowledge of men and how to handle
them, became one of the most popular and
influential Ministers ever sent out from
the United States. Any attempt at this
late day to detract from the credit due for
his distinguished services will result in
such crushing response as to make the
assailant wish he had not been born. For
Morton is clean, straightforward and
capable man of thorough bus mess expert
ence and high native business ability. He
is not politician or a trickster, seeker
after offices or an applicant for official
titles. The Office has always sought him.

An EXPLANATION.

What is thus nervous trouble with
which so many seem now to he afflicted ?
If you will remember, few years ago the
word malaria was comparatively I'M
known; day il is as common as any
word in the English language; yet this
WORD covers only the meaning of another
word used bv our forefathers in times past.
So it is with nervous diseases, as theys
malaria are intended to cover whs our
grandfathers called biiousness, and all are
caused by troubles that arise from dis
eased condition of the liver. which, in per-
forming It's functions finding it cannot
dispose of the bile through the ordinary
channel, is compelled to pass it off through
the system, causing nervous troubles, ma
laria, bilious fever, etc. You who are suf-
fering can well appreciate cure. We
recommend Green's August Flower. It's
cures are marvellous.
