A handsomely dressed young woman
entered crowded street Car. A long
whiskered old fellow, wearing q dingy
slouch hat and suit of home spun
clothes, got up and said:
"Miss, take my seat. don't look as
we'll as these here gentlemen "-nodding
at several mem" but Pve discovered that
I've got more peliteness."
The young woman sat down without
thanking the old fellow; and, slyly
winking at a woman whom she knew,
whispered:
"Hsw do you like my gallant country
hoosisr? Don't you think that he would
cut quite figure in q dime museum ?"
Miss" said the old fellow with
smile which clearly bespoke his unconsci-
business of the unladyGks ridiculs, 81
b'leve left my poeketbook thar on that
seat. Will you please git up mint ?"
The young woman got mp. The old
fellow sat down, and, stroking his whisk-
ers, remarked:
"B'leve I'll jest keep on settin' here,
miss. stood up SO much At the dime
museum Jest now that I'm sorter tired.
I've got leetle more politeness than
these here gentlemen, but l have diskiv-
cred that amt got nigh 80 much sense. :"

THE ART OF TALKING WE'LL,

Anybody can talk, but the art of con-
versation, freely and intelligently con-
Quoted, is confined to the few. Indeed,
the difference between talk and converse
tion is wider than between kitchen and
drawing room, but there are few rarer
things than the man or woman who can
express ideas in an easy, sensible and en-
tertaining manner The fiiln-aam, the
gable Of social life, is not conversation.
Conversation is an art, whsther natural
or acquired, just like letter writing or
public speaking, and no one can do any Of
these things without practice. Of course,
conversational powers may be improved,
if the man or woman can once be con-
vinoed that any improvement Is needed.
But few are aware Of their own de6cien-
cies, and the general consequent indispo-
sition to self-improvement has made al.
most = lost art Of Nash.

That the Ruantisl condition Of Sorth-
ern farmers is better than for many years
10 very generally known, and il 10 interest
ing to stndy the canse. The fnal o6lcisl
reports of crops for 1857 shov that the
value Of the corn crop of the South was
81, SOC, 900 greater than in 1850. IF We
o-.it Kentucky, which had short corn
crop on account Of the severe drought,
the other Southern States produced
about ~, ,000, 900 bushels more Of corn in
1887 than in 1885. In Virginia there was
an increase of 5000, 900 bushels, North
Carolina 5000, 900 bushels, South Caro-
lima 2,3O0, 900 bushels, Georgia SOC, 900
bushels, Alabama nearly 5000, 900 bush-
els, Mississippi 1000, 900 bushels, Louis
Iana 5000, 900 bushels, and Texas 7,0O0,-
600 bushels. The cotton yield promises
to prove to be about as much as in 1885.
despite the predictions of . short crop,
and the greatly enhanced price will doubt
less add s25, 900, 900 to $S0, ,o00, 900 to its
value as compared with the preceding
crop, while the cost of production was
very much less than in former years ow-
ing to the economy praoticed by the far
mers. Wheat and oats yielded 3 good
average crop, while vegetables were more
abundant than in any former year. In
parts OF the South much attention was
given to grasses, and the crop, especially
In Mississippi, was unusually good. Tax.
ing all crops, corn, cotton, wheat, oats,
rice, sugar, tobacco, ETC., and the en-
HANGED values into consideration, it is
very reasonable to estimate that agricul-
tire yielded to Southern farmers in 1887
5000, 900 more than in 1886. Need
there be any wonder that Southern far
mers are in better financial condition than
for some years.
Over $lOO, ,Ooo, 900 were spent in build
ing and equipping new railroads and i'm
proving old roads in the South last year,
while the capital and capital stock of ali
new manufacturing aud mining compa-
MES organized or chartered in the IA
Southern States in 1887 was over $3.50,

bilities of this great country.-Manufac-

BELLIES AT A BACK WOODS
BALL.

Miss Sallie McSniffen was rugged out as
pretty as red and green wagon with two
spring g-seats, and made more mashers than
few. She bad on blue dress, with
red flap at the side, and puffy some
thing or other on the other side. Miss
Sue Sharpe wore an en- train rig, and
could have knocked Mrs. LangtrY silly
when it comes to good looks. Her hair
was en- curl and her face en- powder. She
had sixteen rings on one finger and brace
lets clean to her elbow. Little Birdie
Bloom was the daintiest darling Of ALL"
in white toggery of some sort, looped
up in spots. She wore handpainted
gloves and slippers and passymentry
jewelry. Miss Dorrity reminded one Of
double rainbow, ard was the belle of
the occasion. It's a cold day when Liz
~ Annie Dorrity gets left at ball.

Story of Barbara Frietchie.


That modern tendency to iconoclasm,
which has already destroyed the story Of
William Tell and the apple, and has vul-
legends Of our childhood's days, is dis
posed to lay violent hands on Whittier's
heroine, Barbara Frietchie, and to ques-
ton not only the reality Of the incident
upon which the poem is founded, but the
very existence of such a person as Bar
bara Frietchie.
Protesting that poet is not bound by
the same rules of veracity which circum-
scribe historian, and that it would have
been entirely legitimate for Whittier to
have invented both his incident and his
heroine, had he seen fit, it must be con-
coded that the weight of evidence Is still
in favor Of the story as the poet told 1t.
Last June The Chronicle contained let
ter In reference to the matter, and por-
trait Of the genuine Barbara Frietchie,
but the author of that letter was skeptical
on the subject Of the flag incident, for the
reason that the old woman lived two or
three blocks away from the main street Of
Frederick, and out Of the direct line Of
march of Jackson's army. Our CORE
spondent at that time gave some incidents
In the life of Barbara Frietchie, which
showed that the waving Of an American
flag in the faces Of Stonewall Jackson
and his troops might well have been ex-
pected from her, and that the only APP
parent difficulty was her not residing on
the main street of Frederick.
But now comes Judge Jordan of Indian
apolis, and says that Barbara Frietchie
did live on the main street in Frederick,
the street through which Gen. jackson
must have passed with his army; and
further, that he had been told that rebel
soldier who now lives in Maryland had
said that the incident made memorable by
the poem did occur, and that he was q
witness to it.
II it were worth while, there could
doubtless be found many of Jackson's
men who were ON the march through
Frederick, and who could verify Whit
tiers account in the main. Such an Incl
dent would not be easily or quickly for
gotten, and is certainly susceptible Of
Verification, even at this late day,-San
Francisco Chronicle.

The punkah Of India is long, narrow
fan, suspended by cords from the ceiling;
attached to it is another cord which finds
its way outside through convenient hole
in the wall or window frame. For the
magnificent sum of three annas six cents
the hopeful punkah-wallah sits outside
and fills the room with soothing, sleep
producing breezes for the space of a day
or night by a constant see-sawing motion
of the string.
Few Europeans are able to sleep at
night or exist during the day without the
punkahwallah's services for at least nine
months in the year. The slightest negli-
gence on his part at night is sufficient to
summon the sleeper instanter from the
land of dreams to the stern reality that
the dusky imp outside has himself dropped
off to sleep. A pardonable imprecation,
delivered in loud, threatening tones; or in
the case of a person vengefully inclined,
or once too often mSbie a victim, stealthy
visit to the open door, a well aimed boot,
and the pendulous punkah again swings
to and fro, banishing the newly awakened
prickly heat and tanning the recumbent
figure on the charpoy with grateful
breezes that quickly send him off to sleep
again.-Thomas Stevens in Outing.

Hereditary Tradesmen In Japan,

The boys seen in nearly all the places
OF skilled labor suggests what is the fact,
that apprentices begin to learn their
trades usually much earlier than in our
country, so that when majority is at
tanned the mastery of the crafts is
thorough. Another striking feature Of
the Japanese system is that of heredity.
Skill runs in family lines. Not few Of
the famous artisans of the present decade
are descendants in the ninth, tenth and
even twentieth generation of the founder
OF the establishment. / once employed q
carpenter in Fukui, who was proud Of his
ancestry of wood workers through twenty
seven generations; and the temple records
show such boasting to be true, though
often adoption interrupts the actual blood
line. At a papermaker's establishment
in Awotabi, in Echizen, dined with the
proprietor, whose fathers first established
the industry millennium ago, the ma
tional history showing also that the Co
reans, before the Ninth century Of our era,
visited the place.-Scribner's Magazine.
