Graee Greenwood.s nomnornor.

There are few women who can put a
truth more fOrcibly or clearly than Grace
Greenwood. Being asked few days
since whether she had found foreign girls
superior to the American girl, the bril-
liant authoress responded: "Such ques-
tiOns as that are fired at me, point blank
almost every day. Think of these ques-
tions-aN of which have been asked of
me: DO you still, after all the mon
archical splendOrs you have seen, believe
in republican government? Did not
the grand procession of royalties at the
queens jubilee stagger yOur democracy?'
DO you approve, as you once did, of our
free institutions, and feel proud of the
privileges we grant to women and the
Difference we pay themT How do you
like America now, after seeing so much of
Europe and its governments
"Such questions are little better than in
suits. l might as well be asked plainly
if, after mingling little in conservative
and aristocratic foreign society, l had
turned snob, after the custom of consuls
and the manner of ministers; or If was
ready to stultlfy myself by opposing the
higher education and the political rights
OF women. If the best of earthly friends
the one dearest and most revered. wer
living, should hardly be surprised TO be
questioned by some one: After an nc.
quaintanee with the English mamma, the
French mere and the Italian madra what
do you think Of your motherr" It ia
very evident from this forcible replv that
America has at least one among its famous
and brilliant women whose republican
principles foreign travel and associations
nave not changed. William ]. Box in

The Sewers Of Paris

The idea of keeping the sewers clean
had not thoroughly penetrated the minds
OF the engineers early in the century. and
IN none of the smaller ones was it possible
to stand erect. Many were built too neor
the surface, and it was sometimes reccs.
sary to climb IL ladder to get into them.
In every case they were Of solid masonry.
Until quite lately the Paris sewers were
builtentirely of cut stone or partly Of cut
stone and partly of soft. excessively
porous stone called meuliere. 1t is in
tended in future to build entirely of mem
here, The manner of using it is this: A
great trench is dug, in which a wooden
frame is placed, the size and shape of the
desired sewer The meuliere is placed
about this frame and concrete made of
the bes cement is applied in such a man
ner as to fill solidly all the cavities of the
stone and make durable wall impervious
to moisture. The frame is removed and
the trench filled up as soon as the concrete
IS sufficiently hardened. Paris Cor. San

Origin of the Blizzard.

The Arctic regions. The papers talk

Nasby made 1,5OO,O 900 by tickling the

pays more for the comic than for the seri.

Milton gets $50 for "paradise Lost. - while
Mark Twain received $75, 900 for "Inno.

%20, 900 for his magazine work alone. and
his literary profits ran into the hundreds
OF thousands. NJ. Quad is said to receive
S5,OOO a year from The Detroit Free
Press, and Burdette could make an equal
amount out of his lecture field alone.
Nasby had been working for a few dollars
a week short time before he began his
humorous letters, and Josh Billings sold
his first venture, the essay on the
Mule" for $3.50. Tom Mast received
for years $4,000 for the comic part of his
nature as it came out through the end of
his pencil, and Artemus Ward, while
working for $l2 week on The Cleveland
Plain Dealer, discovered that he had the
gift Of humOr, and not long after this we
find him in England writing articles for
Punch, each of which paid him 5000. The

Three ladies from Dover and one
from Smyrna went as delegates to the
Woman Suffrage Convention in Wash
ington last week. They were shown
through many of the public buildings
by Messrs. Salisbury and Pennington,
and enjoyed that part of their visit
hugely. But their experience during
false alarm of fire in the hotel at
which they were stopping they will
remember long after all the rest is for
gotten. They know now what it is to
be frightened out of their wits.-Sen-

A breakfast in Costa Eic..

It is rather amusing to notice that in
all hotels in this country the first oues-
tion propounded by the waiter, as he
places your chair at the breakfast table.
IS, in what manner will you have YOUR
eggs prepared? That person can eat his
breakfast without eggs seems to be a
monstrOus impossibility. Not having had
the pleasure of breaking bread or the

Newspapers in 1888.

From the edition of Geo. P. Rowell
q Co.'S American Newspaper Direc-
tory" published April, I'd Tits twenti-
eth year,, it appears that the Newspa-
peas and Periodicals of all kinds issued
in the United States and Canada, now
number lG,SlO, showing a gain of 800
during the last 70 months and of 7,186
in 10 years.
The publishers of the directory as
sert that the impression that when the
proprietor ola newspaper undertakes
to state what has been his exact circu-
lation, he does not generally tell the
truth is an erroneous one: and they
conspicuOusly offer a reward of 500
for every instance in their book for
this year, where it can be shown that
the detailed report received from a
publisher was untrue.

white swelling.

Mr.. M. 5. Hamlin, one Of the best known
insurance men in North Carolina, writes
from Winston, as follows: Ever since 1

the doctors call hip disease, and which
call white swelling. Ny hip was drawn
out Of place. There was a swelling at the
