Luxurious Quarters at $3.50 q Year.

A correspondent of The Boston Herald
gives the most allurtng description Of a
bachelors apartment in New York, not far
from the Fifth Avenue hotel, which COM
bines drawing room, kitchen and bedroom,
and which costs little less than g week.
OF course cooking stove and a folding bed
are important factors in the domestic ar
rangenent, while Portieres, hangings and
odd bits Of artistic furniture combine to
make very attractive home. Il Is srpris-
Ing what excellent quarters can be found in
central locations for very small sum of
money, and comparatively few know that in
the matter Of rooms man can be as well
and cheaply accommodated in New York as
in any Of the large European capitals.

How to arrange a room in these days
of brio at rac and business is no
small question. a guild will soon arise
of parlor dressers whose business It
shall be to study our tables and fix
our tides and settle our chairs. Mean
while, however, we must make shift
for ourselves as best We can. Absurd
as the idea appears, it 3 true of furni-
ture as of everything else, that to go
down to the bottom of things and seek
for the reason of its existence, will
speedily enough discover what use it
serves, and therefore what should be
done with it..
This is taking chairs au seriouy, no
doubt, but it settles their place in the
world imme jiately and absolutely as if
each was labeled with its own special
corner. Chairs are to sit in! 1t Is
hardly necessary to write a thesis TO eX-
pound this fact, but it is as thoroughly
forgotten and neglected by the hostesses
and houaekeepers of the world as the
medicinal uses of thOrOUghWOrt or the
relations of daisies 20 hay.

Genuine Boston ErugaIitx.

A laughable story is told at the ex-
pense of a Boston gentleman, who came
with Il party of eNcursionists to the
coast When the Bostonian had been
duly busted, and all traces of travel
carefully removed from his immaculate
broadcloth and shining beaver, he
turned to the affable porter with a
benign smile, and vouchsafed: well,
Isuppose you want something for YOUR
trouble, and, drawing out his portly
wallet, he took therefrom two bright
new pennies. and with the air of a man
who was doing rather more than was
expected of him, or the occasion de-
handed, presented them to the porter.
A look of puzzled astonishment over
spread the features of the African, as
nothing smaller than the tive-cent nickel
circoiates here; but as soon as he re-
gained speech he passed them back
with she remark: I'VE has no use for
them here, sah!' Co." replied the
frugal New Highlander, keep them,
keep them; you may go East some
time, "-San Francisco Cor. Jamestown

Sowing Seed on Sunday.

AS the afternoon begins to lengthen on
Sundays, four figures clad in long black
gowns may be seen pacing to and fro
along the entrance of the city hall. One
is tall and slim and greatly resembles
James G. Blaine in features. Another is
short and stout. The other two are of
medium size. The tall one is Mr.. Kim
ball, the noted friend of the poor
One by one persons drop out of the pro-
cession across the park and stop. Soon
100 gather. The little man steps out
and, opening Bible, reads a verse and
then begins to talk. AS his voice rolls
over the park others come in to heaE, stop
a moment and pass on. Then the other
two men in black gowns in succession
speak with great earnestness. The
core of the audience stays, the
first half dozen rows remain intact; but
the onter edge is a constantly shifting
line, one dropping out, with a laugh, per-
haps, or a serious countenance, while an
other steps in and takes his place. Then
Mr.. Kimball steps forward and, with
Bible in his left hand, pours out entreaty,
warning, eXhOrtation, argument. His
voice strikes the gray front of the post
office and comes echoing back. 1t sounds
far over in Park NOW, and people turn to
see what is going on. 1t arrests the steps
OF persons hurrying along Broadway.
Some glance over at the black gowns and
hurry on. Others walk over and stand
respectfully and listen. The speaker be-
comes more deeply interested, and strikes
his hands together with resounding slap.
He grows excited, and catching his high
hat by the trim sweeps it from his head
In wide circle, and then replaces it. He
talks with great earnestness, and the
crowd listen as though they believed in
his sincerity.
The services end. The black gowns
silently disappear. The crowd meIts away
in the great city. If seed has been sown
fruit will be gathered in tenement houses
and mansions, in slums and in fashionable
quarters of the town, for all Rave been rep.
resented in the crowd before the city
