Cigars a Recent Addition.

The use of cigars by civilized people is much
more recent than most people suppose. The
real cigar, which is a pure roll Of tobacco
alone, originated in Cuba, where the very
best cigars are still made. If not there 1t was
uudoubtly IN one of the West India islands.
Their origin with us, as in Europe, did not be-
gin until early in the present century.
1t is said that of all the various cook books
published between 1900 and 1885,, and books
which treat of the pleasures and adiuncts of
taste before the last named date, not one re-
fers to the after dinner cigars at all. Cigars
are now made all over the civilized world
They are produced very extensively il
Bremen and Hamburg, and ut Seville, il
Spain, but ut Manila, in the Philippine Isl
ands the largest factories are to be found, il
some OF which 10000 girls are employed.

The Way to Win in Politics

H|OVt ute NeW 4 ORR ouH.
The late Samuel j, Tilden used to say that
the secret of political success was first to hayo
a good organization, then to appeal to some
strong sentiment of the people, and then to
get out the vote We are told that the present
leaders Of the Republican party ia this state
hold different views on this important subject.
Mr. Platt, for instance, relies solely OH or
ganizaton and on getting out the vote. He
does not place his faith in sentiment.
Mr.. Warner Miller cares nothing for the ma
chine, but says he is always willing to rest
upon an appeal to the people.
Mr.. Evarts believes mainly in individualism.
81 did mole than any one else to elect you to
the Senate" said friend to him. "YouY'
said the Senator why you could not have
dubbed the votes away from me-"
Mr.. Benjamin Harrison has not explained
his beliefs on the subject. They will he partly
divulged in whatever choice he makes between
Mr. Plat, Mr.. Miller and MIR. Evarts for d
place in his Cabinet.

The Amount of PAPER Used in Year at
the q. p q.
During the year of 1883 there was con-
sumed at the Government Printing
Office, exclusive of ledger paper used in
the building, Ally tons of printing and
writing paper. This is nearly double
the amount of paper ever used in a like
period of the office prior to 1887. The
above amount does not include the paper
furnished by the Departments and Con
gress, which would make many tons
more. This goes TO show the great in
crease in the Government printing and
will prove a strong argument in favor of
the bill to increase the facilities of the
Printing Office.
