Rose-Bux Destroying Peaches. From the Country aentIeman.l

A correspondent of the Country Gentle
 man, probably from one of the Southern
 States, sends box containing peach of an
 inch in diameter, which Is in part eaten
 away by the insects that are enclosed with
 it. By some strange mishap, the oommuni-
 cation sent with the box has disappeared
 from my table, but 1t probably asked for the
 name of the attacking insect and remedy
 against it.
 The insect is the notorious and destructive rose.bug, Macrodactylus subspinosus, which at times proves sore pest to the fruit grower. The old remedies are, jarring the insects from the trees on sheets and destroy ing them, and dusting the foliage and fruit with plaster, slaked lime, oak ashes, or even road dust.
 The Rural New Yorker says that the in. juries of the insects may be prevented by spraying them with pyrethrum in water; that this method is more simple and effective than any other that may be used. It is to be done in this manner: Wet two tables spoonfuls of the powder with water, and mix into paste. Stir this into two gallons of water, and apply with fcrce-pump In @ fine spray. It is claimed for this application that s'in half an hour after the bugs are sprayed, they fly away or fall to the ground, and two thorough sprayings, about Ave days apart, suffice to relieve from all fears of their de- predations."
 We do not know that this method has
 been tested by others. We doubt its full efficiency, but have not been able to make experiment with it. Its effect would pro- bably be that the insects would fall from the trees partly paralyzed, but we do not zee how it could serve as preventative of 2 new attack. Give it good trial and report results.

SDrawing Room DayO in Regent
 Street.

Drawing room day. is great day in Re- gent street. After being presented at court the London beauties go in shoals to be.photo- graphed. The London photographers usual Most of the royalist, go to Wander Weyde now. It Is a singular fact that Wander Weyde with this old historic Dutch name, is really an American, who came to London penniless after the war. A correspondent thus describes her experience at his shop: GAS the carriages rolled up the crowd increased. Several ladies in the street tried to go up, but were repulsed by the grim servant in liv- cry at the door. When the duchess of Marl- mendous and I oould stand it no longer, so found myself following yards and yards of black brocatelle, tulle, lace, passamenterie, jets and feat hers up the wide staircase to the little Moorish waiting room. There boy in buttons stopped me, but few words on @ card got me permission to wait and have an
 interview in an hour, so retired into cor ner, where I could see all. The American Duchess of Marlborough is bearing herself ty, but she has a fine presence, and carries herself with grace and dignity, and little self consciousness, perhaps. She was dressed in court mourning, with the magnificent family jewels. thought her dressed in the best taste of any of the ladies in the gallery. Many portraits of Lady Randolph Churchill hang about, from the simple American girl in white muslin when she first came over, to the more mature woman of the world in hel court dress. with the star of India blazing or her bosom. The magnificent Duchess oi Leinster was there, with her head lifted likt great stag on the alert. Her pictures dt | not do her justice.

SPECULATION IN GERMANY.

SPECULATION IN Gh4km A IN Nc
 Consul-General Mueller, who is stationed at Frankfort-on-th the-M Main, gives a warning concerning the condition of business in Ger many which 1t may be well to heed. He says that just now Germany Is showing symptoms of a business fever similar in many respects to that which terminated in the crash of 1873. The boerse papers are covered in whole pages with offers and in- duoements to invest in the capital of stock schemes of chance, if not deception. Even houses and firms of traditional stability are transforming their business into stock con- panies. This new method of modern 6nan- ciering is just now awakening interest and demanding attention. Millions upon mil- lions of syook are being offered for sale, and the unsuspecting purchase. Banking firms lend support to the oonsummation of the en- terprises, and the press lends its columns to boastful announcements of the schemes. Backed by fnanciers and bankers, encour' aged by public papers, the people rush SC eagerly to buy shares of the stocks as to ! crowd each other at the distributing offices. The chief cause of this condition of thinga | is to be found in the great decline in rates oi l interest consequent upon enormous supplies of money, even at . time when business ev anywhere, and especially in Germany, ii very active. This decline, especially 1T State securities, had led men to look else where for better paying investments Tempted by the peaceful outlook and in creased development in almost every hrancl of trade, they buy. Unsuspicious of evil conservative and careful as the Germans are their first move was toward foreign securi
 ties paying high interest; but for want o | absolute confidence in tho same, they invaat
 ed in such securities only fraction of thei
 capital. The large dividends of cersail
 stock companies during series of years le
 capitalists toward these stock companies an toward an increase in their number as fai
 field for new and profitable investments
 Thus far they have generally been meetin ! with success. The natural result was
 force up existing old stock and to create
 demand and chance for new, and this dt
 mand was answered by the new schemes.
 It certainly looks as If Germany were O
 the eve of a financial crisis. But fever c
 the kind described by the consul-Renert
 must run its course.

A NOBLE WOMAN.
That is What the English PeOpI
 Think Mrs. Gladstone.

That is What the English People
 Think Mrs. Gladstone.
 From the London News.1
 There are some who will think to-day even more of Mrs. Gladstone than of her husband, says the London News. In health and vigor of mind and body she need not fear com- parison even with him. Mrs. Gladstone was married year before the queen, when Lord Melbourne was still prime minister and Sir Robert Peel was still making able speeches against the repeal of the corn laws. MT. Gladstone was then an active member of Parliament, having already held subordi- nate office in Peel's short-lived administra- tion of 1834-5. When Mr. DisraeH deliv- cred his maiden speech in 1887, MT. Glad stone sat immediately behind him and he remembers the concluding half sentence which did not reach the reporters on account ! of the laughter it excited. Readers of that interesting book, 'Three Generations of Englishwomen," will have been amused by | letter from MT. Gladstone to Mrs. John 1 Austin on the subject of national education, | ending, as it does, with an announcement, l by way of apology for not writing before, ! that he was engaged to Miss Catherine Glynne. Lord Palmerston and MT. Disraeli ! were married In the same year. Lady Beacons6eld was ennobled some time before her husband, as Lsdy Stratheden, plain John Campbell's wife, had been in the previous generation. MT. and Mrs. Gladstone have chosen to remain what they were half cen tury ago. How much MT. Gladstone ha owed to his wife since that session of 1889 when he was engaged in discussing the con stitutton of Jamaica, DO one else has tn right to speak on such theme. Antonio in the "Duchess of Mal6," says roundly tha marriage must be either heaven or hell There cannot be much doubt in which cate gory MT. Gladstone's marriage should b' placed. A movement of which the Primros League is probably rather the effect thar the cause has brought women into polite ! during the last five or six years far nor prominently than would have been though either possible or desirable when Mr. Glad stone first became prime minister. Mrs Gladstone's geniality of manner and kind ness of heart have thus become known in far wider circle than even the wide one o her personal friends. She has attended
 great many meetings, made great man short, but not less excellent speeches, an aroused universal enthusiasm wherever sh appeared.

The DIncuIty of Wealth From Poul.
sFrom the London Field.l

We know of no poultry farms in England or elsewhere that have not proved disas trous, peouniary failures. We have known many founded under all kinds of conditions. and very many thousands of pounds lost ir the attempts. There are no poultry farms in France or Italy, the eggs and chickens being produced by the small cultivators. Poultry is bye product; where it can bs produced, as it is by the peasants, without extra cost, it is profitable; but 1t has never yet been proved that it can be made to pay for rent of land and building, good skilled attendance, and labor, conveyance to mar ket, and interest of capital. Our advice lords numerous examples of failures, anG not one of success. The establishments ad vertised as poultry farms are businesses fol the sale of exhibition poultry at fancy prices and not farms in the proper sense of thu | word.
