Small Salaries.

1t is not only American consuls
who can complain of their salary's
smallness. Lady Musgrave, the
widow of the late Governor of
Queensland, is daughter of Cyrus
Field, of Atlantic Cable fame. She
possesses a mind of her own. By
way of replying to certain charges
of parsimony in viceregal affairs she
recently showed the Premier of the
colony her expense book, which re-
vealed deficiency of $4,000 between
the official salary of the Governor
(f5,000) and the cost of maintaining
Government House. Lady Mus
grave further told the Queensland
Premier that if she had not had a
large private income settled upon
her by her father, her late husband
and herself would not have been
able to keep up even a moderate
style of living at Government House.

THE DAILY
JOURNALISM FORTY YEARS AGO.

Forty years ago, newspapers in
the provincial towns Of Great Britain
were very scarce, and proportion
ately expensive. There was heavy
tax upon each newspaper published,
besides tax upon the material. In
those times, there were compare
lively few daily papers in any
country; and the 'weeklies" were
sold in Great Britain at not less than
4ad.-nine cents each. Cash was
also very scarce at that period, and
AID. was too much of weekly tax
upon the British workmen; but clubs
OF nine would subscribe a cent, or
halfpenny each per week, and each
member got his turn in reading the
news-the last one keeping the paper
altogether, and lots were cast for
priority of time. OF course, this
system has long since ceased in
Great Britain, and every workman
can now purchase his daily paper for
a halfpenny or a cent each.
In the United States there was a
much larger advance in newspaper
circulation forty years ago, than in
Britain. There was in the former
country no tax on newspaper material
nor on newspaper issues, and dailies
were published in the larger cities
of the Union at from two to three
cents each. Indeed the conditions
of circulation, so far as price was
concerned, were very little different
from what they are now. They had
not the improved presses of to-day.
that throw thousands instead of
hundreds as formerly; but the popu-
lation was proportionately small and
the newspaper offices of the period
could always supply enough copies
to all their readers. In New York |
city there were several dailies forty |
years ago, and the city weekie of
Chat time contained lengthy stories
and magazine articles for tie most

who have had anything to dc with
the troublesome problem OF caring

questions as to whether the ma
waiian Government was civilized or
barbarous in its treatment OF those
Door creatures. Having some know

that in spite of some tolerably poor
samples of men in authority during
the Gibson regime, there has been
no such neglect as is charged IN

part. Newspaper readers in those
days were much more easily amused
and interested than they are now,
and had more time at their disposal
to read anything that came along
Life was not nearly so much rushed
money was scarce, but necessaries |
and many luxuries were very cheap,
and life was easy.
Newspapers in other parts of the
world have been of much slower
growth than in either the United
States or Great Britain. On the
continent of Europe, France and the
German states took the lead; but
were far behind the Anglo Saxon
countries, except in the British col
onies which, for long period, were
very backward in newspaper publ
cation. The reading matter of the
Australian colonists, forty years ago,
came mostly from Great Britain, and
such newspapers as were published
in Sydney-there was then no Mel
bourne worth speaking of-were
poor specimens.
Canada at that period relied chiefly
upon the New York press for such
dispatches as were contained in the
local newspapers of the principal
cities of the upper and lower provin-
ces; and the same may be said of the
maritime provinces, although the
English mail steamers first touched
at Halifax.
The mechanical work upon news
papers, forty years ago, was very
much less paid than now; and $40
per week in America and SIS per week
in Great Britain, were the standard
wages of compositors. The profits,
however, of newspaper proprietors
were more certain than nowhere
was less opposition; and the pro-
prietors of provincial journals did all
the writing, editing and reporting for
their respective papers. Thus the
expenses, in America, were redu ;ed
to a minimum; and, with the excep-
ton of heavy taxation, similar con-
ditions prevailed in Great Britain at
the same period.
journalism, in those days, had not
arisen to the rank of a profession
Printing was trade and the issue OF
newspaper was considered only q
branch of that trade. Forty years
ago, there was not much journalistic
talent exhibited in the columns of an
ordinary newspaper, and the con
tributions from men of talent were
comparatively few. Such men as die
contribute, seldom received payment
and it was several years later before
newswaper contributions had {
money value attached to them.
Finally a revolution in journalism
dawned. The other professions be
came overcrowded with educated
men; and the publishers awaited
themselves of the surplus talent, frs
at cheap rate and then according
to value. In this way opposition
rivalry, and the necessity of keeping
abreast of the times, have raised
journalism to profession. In on:
age newspaper man has to be OK
perienced in order to succeed; ant
natural adaptability for the work,
liberal education and persevering in
dustry are now the elements of sue
cess in this as in any other line o

Beginning Poultry Raising.

We admire the young fancier who is
governed by taste, for it is a much bet
ter and safer way of beginning than by
picking up this or that breed merely
because some breeders have lauded
them to the skies. Taste is usually &C
companied by fondness for the object
OF choice. and every experienced fan
cier knows that a real love for the
birds one keeps is great element to
success. Begin in spring or fall to
breed poultry. but be sure to begin
slowly. and learn by degrees the art of
mating. caring for and managing q
small flock before you launch headlong
into breeding on large scale. Make
the keeping Of poultry a secondary
pursuit in the beginning and until you
have found it more agreeable. pleasur-
able and better paying than the occu-
patton you first followed. B gin with
good breeding stock though you may
have to pay big price. Remember
that this is putting your money to big
interest After you have started. their
care Or keeping will cost no more, or
not much more, than if the same num-
Der of common fowls were kept, and
the profits from the sale or use of the
eggs and their living product, for either
ornament or utility. is much greater
than that realized from the best of the
common sorts. Michigan Home Jour-

NEAPOLITAN IMAGES.

The Indescrlbable Gaudiness of the Ma
donnas Destined for Shops.
There are whole streets devoted to
shops where images of the saints and
martyrs. Bambinos and Madonnas, are
made and sold. The quantity Of these
objects is SO great that l should
think every worshiper in Naples must
possess at least dozen. The tastes
and purses of all classes are consulted.
There are Madonnas Of huge proper
tions. and little ones which may be
purchased for few soldi. The colors
are nearly all glowing. the contrasts
are violent, ind often shocking to one
whose eyes have been artistically edu-
Gated. The southern Italian does not
understand the use of color. although
the heavens and the earth both supply
him with the most ample lessons in ex-
quisite harmony and grouping. /

beggars and apostles. fishermen and
monks. Bambinos and boatmen-the
secular and the religious so inextricably
commingled as to form a most ludi-
crous and picturesque whole. Another
window certainly contained q
thousand of these figures. and the
merry workers, seated on benches in
the open air, were busy with prepare
ton of others. Buyers at wholesale
and retail came and went. Many
thousands of these images are sent
over sea to the constantly-growing
Italian colonies in the Argentine Re-
public. and in other sections of the
two Americas. The gaudiness OF the
Madonnas destined for shops and
dwellings is quite indescribable; bar
barrie is not the word to express it, for
barbaric idols are often less gaudy.
But there is rarely any thing grotesque
in the religious figures; the artist is
reverent, by instinct. in the treatment
of his subject. 1t is triie shocking.

gagged on these pious figures interlard-

preston of this kind in presence OF

was he that habit had become second
