PLEASURES OF LIFE AT HOEoLUIU.-
This is truly a tropical land, the climate
aud temperature being somewhat mar
veloUs. It is entirely different from
California, or from anything [ have yet
seen. There is DO winter there, yet it is
never too hot and never cold. The tenn.
per2tGre is between 20 degs. to 80 degs.
all the year round, with Il few extra
showers Of rain to emphasize the winter
months. The fragrance is intense after
shower, for the japanese lily, cocoanut,
bananas and palm trees seem to dJstill
perfume. Such fruits as cocoanuts, date
palms, bananas, mangoes, oranges,
bread fruit, lemons, lines and sweet
potatoes grow here in abundance. The
principal productions. however, are
sugar, rice and bananas.
The natives are a strong race, have the
bronze skin of the Chinaman and the
blackcurly hair of the negro. They are
an. afIable affectionate people, but are
extremely lazy, and much prefer the
tinkle of their gay guitars to work
They dress very gaudily, the women
especially.-Edinburgh Ladies Jour

4 RUSSIAN MERCHANTS SIGN.-I pass
ed through one of the principal thorough
fares Of st. Petersburg, and observed
that the upper fronts CT many of the
business houses were &C rered with cof-
fee sacks. Inquiry revealed the fact that
beneath those sacks were beautiful signs,
and the covering was to protect them
from the dust III the summer time. /
induced merchant to show me one of
these signs-six by eighteen feet, parti
ally mosaic, portion painting. He
was chemist, and there were pictures of
bottles of ointment and perfunery; sick
people and a doctor to represent medi-
cine; paint brushes and samples of the
paint; insects on animals, to represent
flea and like powders, and pictures of
fancy articles. The sign would be a
valuable acquisition to the Corcoran art
gallery at Washington, and must have
cost several hundred roubles even to the
cheap hands of Russian artist.-Mos-

Twenty years ago Jim Simmons
rode up to Bill Sharpe's store. in the
Noryen district. eating an orange. He
was too stingy to give any of the boys

asked him for the seed, which he got.
He carried them home, and Mrs. Hall
planted them in little box. A few
months later the family moved to In
dian river. The little onan@e-sprouts
were carried, and on arriving there i'm.
mediately set out. On Sunday morning

SHREwDNEss OLA PLANTER,
are deeply religious in character, though
they maintain too rigid separation bet,
weeu religion and morality. There was
once a planter up the coast, whose
focks and herds suffered from the de-
predatious of his colored neighbors.
His method of self preservati on was uni
que. He built Il church which he pre-
scented TO the negroes upon one condition.
This condition was announced to 5he
congregation from the pulpit by their
minister. It was that so long as nothing
was stolen from this planters place so
long would the sanctuary remain open
bat upon the disappearance of the first
article the church was to be closed,
never TO be reopenad. The plan worked
fauitlessiy and while other piaut atoms
suffered as of old, the originator of this
scheme possessed his goods in peace

AT A TURKISH Turkish
wedding festivities last several days,
during which Gypsy dancing girls and
musicians entertain hosts of women at
the home of the brides parents. Much
frivolity is indnlged in, much cigarette
smoking and coffee drinking, swarms of
beggars are fed and bakshished at the
door, and many presents received and
given. But all this time the expectant
young Turk has never set eyes on his in
tended. at the beginning of the festivi
ties pOrters come to his fathers house
bearing the bulky trousseau of the bride,
for the Turkish custom is for the bride
and her belongings to be brought to the
home Of her husband. Guests begin at
once to distribute the articles Of the
trousseau about the bridal chamber, so
as to show everything off to the best
advantage. Festivities are continued at
both houses. On the third day friends
of the bride groom proceed in body to
the house of the bride, and Oh the sixth
the bride is conducted to the house of
her husband, where he stands at the
door to receive her yelled. Thomas

AN ACTOR IN HONOLULU.-BOOth told
g very amusing story when he was here
last of "trip he took to Honolulu. when
he was younger and knocking about
California. Some actor came mp from
Australia who had stopped at the Sand
wich Islands. He intiamed Booth on
the subject of that dramatic Ell Dorado.
He scraped together all the money lie
could and went to Honolulu. He had
fifty dollars when he arrived. With that
money he hired the theatre for five
weeks at ten dollars a week. He found
two or three people and made arrange
ments to give show. Il was to be
Orchard I'LL" The two or three
people played all the parts. One man
played four, and one woman two, and SO
on. The question of billing the town
arose. He managed to get some posters,
but he had nothing to stick them up
with. He bought bucket of poi" and
some starch or stuff that would help it,
mixed his paste and sent small kanaka
out to put up the bills. He didn't see
any when he went out, and investigation
disclosed that the small Kanaka had eat
en- up all the paste and thrown the post
ers away. He begged some of his com
pany to stick them up, but they were all
too high toned, and Booth had to go off
himself in the middle of the night and
paste his bills up. He said he came
back with fifty dollars, just as he start
ed, and they had lived on bananas
principally.-San Francisco Chronicle.

Coon HEALTH AND WORK There are
many persons in the world whose only
capital is health. They are engaged in
work of various kinds, and SO long as
health lasts they earn good living.
they must learn how to avoid illness by
living in the right way. There are
others who have lived wrongly in youth,
but have found out their errors in time
to have a fairly good constitution left.
These may live to a ripe old age, health
fully, if they only take care. There are
still others with everything that riches
can give: these must learn to live rightly,
too, if they want TO be well. Plain food,
exercise, etc, will enable these to five
long, as they are not troubled by the
necessity of work SO that they may i've.
Wealth comes not from our income, but
from the amount we save of it; so health
comes not from the amount we have TO
go on with, but from the amount we
save, by not spending it on trifes which
waste our strength and give Us no re-
turn.-Dr. Allison,

DIPTHERIA A FUNGUs.-A correspon-
dent OF Science, Mr.. 2. J. Farnsworth, of
Clinton, Ia, finds very striking resem-
blance between the membrane of diph-
liberia and the fungi that produce dry
rot, or more especially those forms that
grow in living trees. A white or yellow
leathery substance is produced, some
times known as punk" the roots of the
fungus penetrates the cells of the wood
in every direction, producing disintegra-
ton, and decay. Diphtheria is called an
emulation, and classed as bacterial
disease, when in fact it is fungus OF a
higher order. It grows on the surface
and spreads by fibulations, and its roots
penetrate deeply into the tissue, produc-
ing changes and decomposition, which
becomes the soil for bacteria. generating
pOisons that are absorbed and powerful
" affect the whole system. In this view
its life history has not been studied or
found out II is known that the men,
brana can be transplanted. but how it is
propagated by spores IS unknown. There
is evidently some peculiar condition Pc
quired. 1t may be that an alkaline con-
dition OF the system is required, which IS
the reason of the c8priciOusness OF its
nfection.-Chicago News.
