WHAT THE ENGLISH WANT.

WAA4 1AE EGNGIA1SE1 W ANTI
 MT. Sma1ley, the London correspondent of the New York Tribune, says that he has not met single Englishman who does not wish for Mir. Cleveland's election, not one who does not take it for granted, and not one who does not believe that English trade and manufacturers will benefit by his triumph. Mir. Smalley says further: Our old friends here seem ready to sacrifice everything in support of the party which will give them control of the American markets. The Re. publican convention, they tell us, after days of intrigue and hesitation, which wearied or disgusted observers, nominated a compara- lively unknown man, who, on his merits, would have no chance against MT. Cleveland. It's programme would have shocked the old economists of the Union. It is difficult to believe that men who watch every dollar this seems meant as 8 description of the American people-can read it without an air of emotion, either of apprehension or of an noyance. =.
 The Spectator is strongly for Cleveland and free trade. The London Globe remarks: As rule the presidential contest has very little interest for the Old World. On the present occasion, however, an issue is involved which very closely concerns Europe, more particu- larly Great Britain. MT. Cleveland has taken his stand on free trade, and, although his party managers have considerably planed down his platform, he is universally recog- nized in the States as pledged to initiate 6 new departure in fiscal policy. Nor can there be any doubt that he would act t1p tc this understanding were he elected. |. The central issue of the contest lies between the maintenance of the present fiscal system intact and its modification in the direction of free trade. And on that broad question MT. Oleveland's candidature naturally and neces- sarily carries English sympathy.
 Of course it does. But do the people oi this country want to vote so as to make the English manufacturers glads They do not. The great interest felt in England in Cleve- lands success ought to be solemn and eff fective warning to the people of this country.

rife is pretty serious weapon. The mem bers of the French Academy of Medicine, wishing to diagnose the physical consequences of wounds inflicted by the bullets of the gun, recently had experiments made on twenty eorpses, probably those of paupers whom nobody owned, or those of iil-fated Waifs picked up at the morgue. The bodies were placed at the ordinary firing distances, from two hundred yards up to mile or so. The bullets whizzed through the bones and pierced them without fraeturing them, as is done by the bullets of the "Gras ride." The wounds, if they may be called so, which were inflicted, were small in their punctures, and consequently very dangerous and diff cult to heal. Injuries inflicted at short dis- tances were so considerable that, in the opinion of the surgeons, they would be al- most incurable.' At the longest range, 2, 1000 metres, poplar tree was hit, but the bullet, which impelled a certain quantity of air be- fore it, did not go through the tree. At 1900 metres the tree was pierced through and through. The discharges of the rifle are unaccompanied by smoke, and the reports are comparatively feeble.

Where Women Never Enter.

Mount Athos is the one place ia Europe where for many centuries past no woman, and for that matter no female creature of any sort, has been knowingly permitted to live. It is believed by it's devotees that since its first occupation by religious communi- ties, about the fifth century of the Christian era, no woman has ever landed there. It is 8 high, steep range, literally covered by mo nastic communities, and nothing else but the results of the industry they exercise and the buildings in which these ecclesiastics reside. The average altitude is about sixty-four hun dred feet, which in that lovely semi-tropical climate makes of it as to temperature most delightful residence.
 These communities are supposed to be enormously rich. One thing is known to scholars and that is that their library treas- ures in manuscriptS, etc., are almost beyond price. Historically they must be of vast importance. Little or nothing is reelly known of the internal administration of these communities, not much of their exter- nal power, though that must be of great in- direct importance, affecting through priestly agencies the whole body of Greek Catholics, who, counting the Russians, are second in old world affairs in numbers, etc., only to their Roman brethren. Traditions of some daring beauties who, disguised in male at tire, have ventured on the Salonica peninsu- Ia, are floating about that region, but the Greek Catholics believe that anyone such have never returned to tell the tale.

How to Smoke a Cigar.

Never buy cheap cigars. There is no
economy in it. II you can't afford good
cigars, smoke less and enjoy your smoke.
1t is folly to think little cigars are the
best.
You cannot tell whether u cigar is
good or bad unless you lightit properly
that is, thoroughly. A good cigar will
not be much better than poor one if
badly lighted.
II your cigar goes out, be sure to
blow through it as soon as possible, so
that when you light it there will be no
dead smoke in it.
Leave the ashes on your cigar as
long as possible. Your cigar will burn
straighter aud taste sweeter if you do.
II you think smoking injurious to
your health, stop smoking in the morn
ing A great many people have stom-
achs out Of order. and no man ailiDg in
that way can smoke before or Immediate
ly after breakfast. The best time TO
smoke is after dinner and after supper.
Smoking would not hurt baby if this
rule was adopted.
Never give anybody a light from your
cigar. Garry matches.
In buying cigars select those that are
fresh or in condition that when rolled
gently between the thumb and finger no
cracking sound is heard; or if you buy
a::dry one. place it in freshning box
one in which the whole box of cigar
can be placed preferred, so as not to b.
in contact with metal.

Precocious Children.

There are but few parents who are not
pleased when their children show un-
usual brightness. Such children attract
the notice and admiration Of others AMI
minister to the vanity Of father or
mother; but precocity in a child is
thing to be regretted rather than en-
couraged.
Few precocious children rise above
tho average in adult life Rather the
tendency is to fall below it. During
early childhood---say the first seven
years---the brain is imperfect both in
form and substance. and any stain then
put upon it is at the expense Of future
vigor.
One trouble is that the brain Of such
child tends Of itself to dangerous ac-
tivity; and another is that the fond pa-
rent Is almost sure, sometimes uncon-
sciously and. sometimes purposely, to
push il to the limit of its power.
What the parent should do is to hold
the child away from schools aud books
and exhibitions, from talk above its years
and from admiring friends, and to keep
it down to childish mates and sports and
simple outdoor activities. If it should
not learn It's letters until eight years of
age 50 much the better.
The constant and serious aim should
be to draw away the tendency of blood
to tho brain to build up tho material
organization and give the brain a chance
to build itself up tor the solid work of
life--the furnishing Of the working force
for every organ OF the body as well as
OF the mind.
The Washingtons, Waylands and the
Websters have not come of preeocious
children, and our present knowledge Of
physiology and pathology would have
enabled US to say beforehand that they
were, on the whole, rather duller Ittaa.

THE BEAUTIFUL LAND.

There's beautiful land that lies to the west
OF the lar.famed valley of tears,
Where the griefs that are born are jealousy
prest
To the hearts of sorrowful years,
And are borne with nolseless, measureless
tread
Down the valley, across the strand,
Straight ON to the sea, where the barks OF
the dead
Float to the Beautiful Land.
The dip of the water is heard in the night
And the griefs that lie on the sands
In their naked woe, through the shimmering
light,
Reach out their weird, shadowy hands,
And beckon to vessels to come to them there
And call to the mystical band
That drifts DER the sea, to welcoming air
Blown soft from the Beautiful Land
They glide in the wonderful silence of death,
With faces, snowywhite, to the west
And lily hands kissed by the spice.laden
breath,
That strays from the sweet land of rest
They heed not a moan from the gray, misty
vale,
They see not a beckoning hand,
But sweetly they sleep in the barges sail
For the beautiful, rest filed land.

The science Of electricity, which
is becoming more and more useful
every year, has not yet accomplish
ed the solution of the battling prob,
lem of what electricity is. Gen.
o. E. Madden, of Boston, formerly
assistant general manager Of the
Bell Telephone Company, observes
The electrical world is still looking
for man who can tell what is
electricity. "The chemist can tell
you what is lard and what is but
ter. He can analyze their compo-
nent parts and make his results
clear to you, but this subtle force OF
electricity is still battling us all.
Experiments in electricity 60 on
for year, with each days deduc-
tions proving the work and deduc-
tons Of the previous day, and on
the very last day the entire work
and deductions of the whole year
may be upset and knocked over by
something We cannot control and
do not understand. The general
laws of electricity are becoming
fairly well known, but what it is
remains mystery, theory, an un-
demonstrable problem"
