The Corner Drugstore

II hlAtirb aAhihl
The corner drugstore is becoming
place where people expect to find every
thing, and if they don't get it they
"kicl," to quote the language Of the
proprietor Of one of them. al don't re-
member Just when it became the pro-
vince of drugstore to keep saltwater, )"
he continued, land l suppose that it is
all right. But this doesn't satisfy any
longer. We began selling koumiss
some years ago, and now we have
a regular trade in that. You
know the custom which prevails in
many drinking-places OF offering the
customer an oyster, or tish-ball,
or sandwich, or some cheese and
crackers? There are many people who
60 into a beer saloon regularly once
day just to get a nibble Of something,
and they buy gla,e OF beer for the
looks of the thing. SO We have put
cheese and crackers on our koumiSs coun-
ter and are having q boom IN tho bust
ness. 1t is funny to see how many
things a man will call for in place like
this. One comes in and buys a glass of
something to drink, a cigar, a postage
stamp and an envelope and tooth
brush, box of pills, and bottle OF
some cough mixture. Now and then we
are asked for Oh article which has no
more business in o drugstore than cat
has with three eyes, and when we tell
them that we haven't it they look sur
prised. Just awhile ago man came in
here and asked me in all seriousness if [
had any faxseed poultices. Flaxseed,
of course, we keep but faxseed poul-
tees Think OF that. And they ask
for things in a corner drugstore that
they would never ask for in drugstore
in the middle of the block. | don't
know why they do it. Don't ask me"

Elizabeth, " D., May %, 1883.

To the Editor Of the New York Times:
Referring to the communication OF
&C. l.. d." in your to-days paper
headed "Sparrows and the Blizzard, L
would say that 1 have had an eye on the
"winged rat, " (Passer d0mesticus, Eng
lish sparrow for q number OF years,
having known since chidhood's days
what an abomination, what yermln he Is,
and l can therefore testify that as far as
my observation goes there are certain
ly less sparrows and more song or
migratory birds in aud around New
York than there have been for
many years The same observa-
ton was made in Connecticut
where l spent a few days last week.
There would certainly have been a greater
diminution Of the "too-httle-abused
English sparrow if during the days OF
the blizzard q great many foolish people,
who will not hesitate to adorn their hats
with the plumage OF useful birds, had
not, contrary to law and reason, fed that
vermin. He who has seen with what re-
lentless fury and cruelty the sparrow
persecutes other birds and destroys their
nests and eggs cannot but rejoice that
the blizzard killed a great many OF the
greatest enemies of our feathered song
sters. ii. NIMMEL.

HATS FOR CHILDREN.

The little ones are crowned with huge
brimmed, quaintly-formed straw hats,
trimmed with daisies and other field
flowers, and with broad, brightly colored
ribbons. The children underneath these
overshadowing hats have no chance Of
being freckled.
A cool, seasonable polonaise costume
is in figured China silk, made simply,
with no trimming except an edging Of
lace along the opening of the bodice in
front, together with lace cuffs and col
lar. The skirt, of the same material as
the rest of the costume, is killed SO far
as it is visible.

To the Editor Of the Neto York Times
In reply to &C. L. d." who asks In
your issue OF the 23d for facts concern
ing the return Of native birds to certain
localities, 1 have to say that we have no
iiced a great many this year in our gar
den, which we have never had there
before. 4 few days ago called my
vife's attention to some rare birds in the
garden. and while we were looking at
them another bird, beautiful orange
colored visitor, with black wings, flew up
on the grape arbor and perched within
four feet OF US, apparently not in the
least alarmed by our presence. There
may be few less sparTows (say four or
five in our diocese this year than there
were last year, and they are quite as OBJ
streperous as ever. so it cannot be their
absence that causes these beautiful ma
tive birds TO revisit us.
