Fruits of Colombia.

The fruits and vegetables in Colombia
are delicious and grow without culture or
care The plantain Is in universal use
and is always served as vegetable. 1t is
fried and boiled when the skin is yellow,
when it is known as green" plantain,
and when It is black and the fruit is con
sidered thoroughly ripe. The banana is
never fried In the tropics, but Is always
served as fruit. There are many varie
ties Of banana. One OF the most de
licious species in flavor and fragrance is
the little d. or guinea banana, which Is
scarcely finger in length. The red ba-
mana Is not different species, but va

kind Of symbolism was once shown in the
famous reformatory school at Lusk. One
of the teachers had induced about twenty
of the boys to give up profane and indie

which they were paid. But they were in
different and half hearted in the effort.

y,.v'ers Of the Arctic Regions.

The polar flowers seldom have any per.

liQhtful quality, however feeble, are,

tioned-Eskimo flowers, we might call
them in q popular way-haye any appre-
ciable odor. The color OF these boreal
blossoms are generally Of the cold tints,

HINTS ON GOOD MANNERS.

Without presumlng to tell people what
they have right to do, or to advise them
even In q somewhat delicate clement OF
life, we wish to record some remarks ON
what Is called etiquette, which means the
code OF personal behavior. II any man,
high or low. will follow the suggestions
herein conveyed he can pass for gentle
man; and II be feels them In his mind and
heart be is one, whatever his dress, birth,
occupation, and regardless OF color or
previous condition Of servitude.
In the first place, the foundation OF eti'
auctte Is common sense and good feeling /;
and its purpose should BIO not so much
after the manner OF the society manual
OF fashion TO furnish rules, but to explain
principles.
II person will maintain q perfectly
cool temper and always bear in mind the
rights and feelings Of others, he will rep
resent tho most refined pollteness, and at
the same time be q Christian gentleman.
A man may carry bis umbrella on rainy
day in such manner as not TO inconve-
nience others, and II he does this he will
not be suspected OF having a stolen one.
Among the neglected principles OF
manners, however. are many such little
things as introducing people In public
places when there is no reason for an In
PRODUCTION, and urging an acquaintance
TO accept some act of courtesy that he
has once declined.
A vile SANDER has prevailed for long
ages to the effect that a woman refuses a
thing that she wants, but as rule when
q sane man declines anything he means
that he does not want 1t.
All this is suggested by certain antics
that are habitual in theatres. People have
no right to talk and disturb others, and
1t il just the same sort of people who try
to make singer repeat number of an
opera after an encore has been acknowl-
edged by bow the second time, which
means that something that follows rem
ders repetition of the number either i'm
possible or too trying.

TIE GREAT FIGHT.

Mr.. Randall has weakened on the
Pennsylvania idea Of Democratic Re
publican policy. Mr.. Randall is big
Democratic leader, and his peer Is hard
to and when there is tournament In the
House of Representatives on any great
question. And his idea does not suit the
advanced policy of the Democratic
idea Of the Democratic party, and II
must always be remembered that he
comes from Republican State, and tina,
his leadership in the Democratic party
would do more harm than good.
The two points Of danger to keep the
Democratic party from holding the adj
ministration are the sectional issue and
the idea In our party of protecting mo-
nopoly to let 1t make indifferent goods
for the home market and make the buyer
purchase an inferior article at double the
price that other countries pay for bet
ter one. There is no denying that SIM
pie statement. The American citizen
pays more for the necessary articles OF
life than peoplein Other. countries do, and
the reason Of 1t Is that the capitalist is
given the privilege of monopoly.
The buyers are three-fourths of the
people.
The protected manufacturers are a
fraction Of q hundred; that is, they are
one to half million.
The alleged protected laborers, II we
accept that fsllacy, are two millions to
si1ty-fve millions.
Now, how long will the common sence
of America stand this outrages
Why should sixty-fve millions of PEG.
pie pay double the price that they ought
to pay for certain necessary articles of
everyday life simply because the Repub-
lican party organizes sensation on a
gigantic lies
Isit not plain thing that the Ameri.
can should get his clothes at the same
price that his neighbor In Canada gets
them, which 10 one half of what we pay
In the United Statess
That Is what Dir. Cleveland meant In
his message by calling the turn on the
monopolists. The great Aght has to be
fought, and the best and easiest thing Is
to push the issue now when the party of
the people has the administration and
the majarity In the popular branch Of the
national Legislature.
