Our National cockroacbes.

Hem! henI hem! cough! cough!
cough! The hall of the house of repre-
sentatives sounded like an asylum for
consumptiyes. The senate was in execu-
tive session, and the hundreds of visitors
who thronged the Capitol on Saturday
afternoon, being debarred from that end
of the Capitol, thronged the house side.
There was a strange odor in the air. 1t
tickled the nostrils and irritated the
throat. AS it grew stronger and stronger
the crowds gathered around the big
tanks of ice water and helped themselves
most literally, while the ladies bought
up all the caramels at the candy stand.
The guides, usually SO fluent of speech,
grew husky and finally spoke in dis
jointed sentences. Everybody coughed
and wondered.
The cause of the strange odor was To-
Gated in the restaurant. Half dozen
employees were burning red paper by the
ream, and thousands of cockroaches wero
succumbing to the fatal smell. The an
nual campaign of determination was in
progress. w Washington Post.

To that sweet south wherein they fain would

Yet, all day long she listens for his coming
All the long day she dreams of one dear face;

Lonely she dreams, while the warm sunshine

Upon her face, her pallid face, yet fair;
Alone sits sobbing, while with silver fingers
The moonbeams thread her soft, unbranded hair
An, heavy heart! so passionate its yearning
She needs must know that all her peace is DER;
That eager pain meath her white bosom burning,
Tells her It's gone, to enter there no more
But once to feel, unchecked, his fond caressingl
One wild, sweet hour close to his heart to pressl
There her thought stops; what else Of bliss or

Still at her window dreaming, longing, weeping
While to their mates the gray doves COO and

A Ministerial Joke.

Ministers like their little Jokes as well
as any one else. Chaplain Wharton, Of
the Grand Army of the Republic for the
state of Wisconsin, is no exception, and
he perpetrated one while ago which
acted as boomerang; it came back and
hit him hard. It was at some great
Il. A. r. affair, where speeches were
being made, and one speaker desired to
refer to the incident mentioned in the
Bible where some one tied the tails of
two hares together. The speaker was at
a loss to remember who this person was,
and he asked the chaplain. With face
as sober as a judge, that gentleman said
it was Goliah The speaker went on
with his talk and made his reference,
speaking Goliah's name in all confidence.
Some one behind pulled his coat tail and
said in whisper: SIT was not Goliah;
it was Absalom." This rather knocked
him out for moment, but quickly re-
covering he said: well, there appears
to be a little discrepancy about who it
was that tied the hares' tails together.
As was not sure about it myself went
to Chaplain Wharton, thinking he should
be authority on the matter, and he told
me it was Goliah." This SO completely
turned the laugh upon the chaplain that
the speaker got back his composure and
finished his remarks in good STYLE

No woman, at least in America, has
any such talent as a man has for spend
ing money. She spends for what she
believes to be beauty-for raiment,
books, jewels, decoration, furniture, pic
lures, marbles-rarely for what does her
serious harm. He spends most for his
vices, for the things that hurt him great
~. He is apt to speculate, to bring evil
to others from his love of pleasure or of
gain.
He will get rid of more money in a
month than she would in years. She
would, however ignorant of it, be ap-
palled by the sums he dissipates. She is
constitutionally conservative; big state
ments of any sort are likely to alarm
her. Unless desperate or frenzied, she
invariably stops short of extremes. She
trembles and turns pale where he, in the
flush of egOtism, moves undisturbed.
Nearly all the talk of woman's care
lessness of money is really idle. The
opinion cannot be sustained. 1t is main
ly the echo of misapprehension. Where
she is even partially enlightened on the
subject, she is prone to be very cautious
in its use. Her temperamental tendency
is to theopposite of carelessness. -Junius
Henri Browne in Ladies' Home Journal.

A Pretty Action.

A newsboy took the Sixth avenue ele-
waited at Park place at noon yesterday,
and sliding into one of the cross seats fell
asleep. At Grand street two young wo-
men got on and took the seats opposite
the lad His feet were bare and his hat
had fallen off. Presently the younger
girl leaned over and placed her muff
under the little fellows dirty cheek. An
old gentleman in the next seat smiled at
the act and without saying anything held
out a quarter, with nod toward the
boy. The girl hesitated moment and
then reached for it. The next man Just
as silently offered dime, woman across
the aisle held out some pennies, and be-
fore she knew it the girl, with flaming
cheeks, had taken money from every
passenger in that end of the car She
quietly slid the amount into the sleeping
lads pocket, removed her muff gently
from under his head without rousing
him and got off at Twenty third street.
including all the passengers in a pretty
little inclination of the head that seemed
full of thanks and the possession of a
common secret.-New York World.

Women BIaclxSmitIls.

1t is considered improper for women
to work underground in a coal mine,
writes Dudley England correspondent.
Is it not equally wrong for them to toll
as blacksmiths? The scenes that occur
in the smithies, especially in summer
time, are quite opposed to the accepted
notions of decency. The heat is intense.
There are the forge fires, the red hot
pieces of iron, and, above all, the ire
mendous labor Of .hammering out the
iron. Even in wintry weather, with the
snow on the ground, have seen women
perspire at their work. In the summer
it simply results in an indecent abandon
ment of clothing The fellahin of Egypt
are better clothed than the women in a
smithy's shop on a midsummer's day.
Then, to bring the olive hammer down
with greater force, it sometimes happens
that two or three persons will spring on
the treadle at once. This is generally
done by boys and girls. They stand as
close as possible, hold each other by the
waist, and simultaneously spring with
the right foot on the treadle 1t is hardly
necessary to add that the standard of
morality is not high among the members
of this trade, and would undoubtedly be
much improved if the women were de-
barred from such work. Whether the
men alone could earn enough to keep
them is question not SO easy to answer,
though there can be no doubt that their
wages would greatly increase but for the
competition of their wives and their sis
ters.-Philadelphia Telegraph

About CbIoroforminq.

The statement that when handker-
chief is thrown over a mans head he
Immediately goes into trance is inter-
esting and raises curious point. There
are many lawyers who are won't to de-
clare that the evidence given from time
to time at criminal trials leaves no
doubt that there exists some drug
which, when spread upon cloth and
placed over the nose and mouth, imme-
diately produces inconsistencies. On
the other hand, chemists assert that
the thing is an impossibility, and that
no such compound has ever been dis.
covered.
Chloroform and the other recognized
anesthetics require at least three dis
tinct inhalations to produce the loss OF
sensation. To reconcile this conflict OF
testimony seems impossible, unless. in
deed, we adopt the sensational theory
that some camorra among the criminal
classes is in possession If trade secret
as yet unknown to science. Probably
however, this notion is too fantastic. ane
we should rather incline to the supposl
ton that the immediate loss OF CON,
seriousness is due to something compar
able to mesmeric action.-Spectator.

Not to Be Outdone.

Hospitality is the browning virtue of
he Turk. He would scorn to be thought
behindhand in this respect when COM
pared with any other race of men. Mr..
Barkley tells story in his Bulgaria
Before the War" which proves that the
Turk will not allow himself to be out
done even by any of his countrymen.
A friend of mine was one day shoot
ing IN the vineyards at Rustchuk, when
he was stopped by an old Turk and told
that trespassers were not allowed, and
that he must clear off at once.
My friend turned to comply, but be-
fore leaving said in Turkish, "What
manner of man are you? have shot in
these vineyards for years without word
being said to me, and today have passed
over many miles and spoken to many
owners of vineyards, and you are the
only one who has raised the slightest OBJ
lection. The vineyard is yours, and you
have the right to object to my being
here, so shall leave your ground, but |
never received such treatment from an
Osmani before"
The Turk, who, up to this time, had
been squatting on the ground, jumped
up, and, with marvellous display of en-
ergy, began protesting.
"My good fellow" he cried, "you shall
not say sol Others have shown you hos
pitality, and | will not be behind them.
Go where you like, eat what you like,
carry away all you like, and all the vine
yard is yours to do as you like with"
The Englishman thanked him, and it
ended in the two squatting down and
having feast on grapes together.

Treating the Brain.

The brain has generally been regarded
as part of our organization which lies
entirely outside the sphere of operative
interference by the surgeon. 1t is not
generally known that the matter of the
brain itself is non-sensitive, and that
persons have recovered from severe in
Iuries of the head in which several
ounces Of brain matter have actually
been lost. Professor Terrier, in a recent
address on the functions of the brain,
points out the interesting fact Ito which,
II may be added, surgery itself has been
leading up) that in the near future it will
be Justifiable enough for surgeons to at
tempt to cure certain brain affections by
the actual handling and examination OF
the great center of the nervous system
Such view of matters certainly fore
casts veritable triumph of the healing
art, for it need hardly be said that there
are no cases in face of which medicine
stands more hopelessly than many forms
OF brain disease. Today operations are
successfully performed which but few
years ago were regarded as essentially
iatai ia their nature. 1t is not too much
70 predict that brain surgery will form a
department of the medical art of the
future from which great things may be
hoped for in the interest of suffering hui
manlty.-Herald of Health.

An Amateur.

It was Saturday evening, and the fam
ily, as they were accustomed on that
day, sat down to meal of baked beans.
The Frenchman, who was a guest, was
asked by the hostess: Are you fond of
baked beans, Monsieur du CrapaudY'
"Ah," said the Frenchman, with a
shrug of his shoulders, an inclination of
his head to one side and a raising of his
eyebrows, 81 do eat re baked beans, but
| am not amateur of zem!
All the family looked puzzled by this
remark, and little Tommy, who sat ut
the foot of the table, could not restrain
his curiosity.
''Oh, Monsieur du Crapaudr' he ex-
claimed, ''does that mean that you are
professional baked bean eater?"
Tommy had heard the word amateur"
used simply to mark the difference be-
tween those who followed any sport or
occupation for pleasure and those who
followed it to make livelihood out of
it. To him amateur" had no other
meaning; and if NJ. du Crapaud was not
an amateur of baked beans" he must
be a professional.
The Frenchman, on the contrary, used
the word as meaning a lover of an art or
anything else whatsoever, or one having
special knowledge of it. To be an anna
teur with him signifed very much the
same thing as what is ordinarily ex-
pressed by the other French word con-
noisseur If he had said that he twas
not a connoisseur of baked BEANS" he
would not have been understood by
Tommy, perhaps, but he would not have
been so radically misunderstood. -

Heat of the Moon.

A problem of great interest in physics
and astronomy, on which Tyndall, Lord
Roose and Professor Langley labored in
vain, has been solved, and trustworthy
evidence at last been obtained as to the
thermal value Of moonlight. This has
been accomplished by Mr. G. V. Boys,
one of the professors at South Kensing-
ton, who, by means of his quartz fla
ments has produced a thermopile Of al
most incredible delicacy. By this ap-
paratus he can render sensible the heat
of candle up to the distance of mile
and three-quarters, and by directing the
minute disk of the instrument to the
moon he has shown that the warmth re-
ceived from its reflected light is equal to
that given out by candle at twenty-one
feet distance. The result accords with
the anticipations of Professor Piazzi
Smyth. Observations seems to show that,
although the moons face is under the
blaze of an unclouded sun for fourteen
days, it remains comparatively cool, and
that whatever heating it does ultimately
receive is rapidly gained and as rapidly
lost.-London Standard.

Manners of Americans.

The real test of the manners and morals
of a nation is not by comparison with
other nations, but with itself 1t must be
Judged by the historical, not by the topo-
graphical standard Does it develop? and
how? Manners, like morals are an affair
of evolution, and must often be native
product, wholly indigenous thing. This
is the case, for instance, with the habitual
American courtesy to women in travel
ing-a thing unparalleled in any Euro
pean country, and of which, even in this
country, Howells finds his best type in
the Californian. What takes the place
of it among the Latin races is the courtesy
of the high bred gentleman toward the
lady who is his social equal-which is
wholly different thing. A similar point
of evolution in this country is the decorum
of public assembly. 1t is known that
at the early town meetings in New Eng
land men sat with their hats on, as in
England. Unconsciously, by a simple
evolution of good manners, the habit has
been outgrown in America, but parlla-
ment still retains it.
Many good results may havt followed
imperceptibly from this same tendency
to deco-um. Thus Mr.. Bryce points out
that the forcible interruption of public
meeting by the opposite party, although
very common in England, is very rare IN
America. In general, with us, usages are
more flexible, more adaptive; in pubic
meetings, for instance, we get rid OF
great many things that are unutterabiy
tedious, as the English practice of NOV
ing, seconding and debating the pre-
scribed vote of thanks to the presiding
officer at the end of the most insigniti-
can't gathering. It is very likely that
even our incessant self criticism con-
tributes toward this gradual amehora-
tion of habits. In that case the wonder
is that our English cousins, who criticise
themselves quite as necessarily, move so
slowly.-Harper's Bazaar.
