A Singular Premonition.

It is an odd story which Postmaster
General Wanamaker tells of his Fremont
tons of the violent death of NJ. Frank
lin B. Gowen, the railroad President and
lawyer To be sure, these premonitions
were not very definite. On the evening
when Mr. Governs death occurred Mr..
Wanamaker experienced a sense of IN
easiness and general distress, and at the
same time the fact that his old friend Mr..
Gowen was about to visit Washington
flashed across his mind several times
during the evening. This feeling of in
comprehensive disquiet weighed suffi-
GENTLY with Mr. Wanamaker to keep him
from fulfilling some social engagements
that night The next morning the same IN
easy feeling recdrred to him, once more
linked with thoughts of Gowen. At
that time the latter was lying dead in his
room.
It may have been only another of
those curious condolences which are
only noticed when the upshot is sensa-
tional. But it is worth remarking how
often in the case of violent death the
friends or relatives of the victim have re
ceived mental warning of the event. 1t
Is quite possible that man is not yet fully
acquainted with the extent and powers
of his senses, and that there exist, be-
tween the units of the human race, ties
and means of communication of which
we do -7ot droarr .--r,--al2 ti---r--s- -
Ievel-headed, substantial business man of
Mr. Wanamaker's stamp, Is not the sort
of a man to fall victim to hysteria, or
TO allow the Imagination to lead him
captive. The subject IS profoundly in

ENTERTAINING COMPANY.

The oldtime housekeeper, who case
and punctilio in entertaining her guests
has been a subject of modern admira-
ton, is very often replaced in these later
days by a Hurried, nervous housewife,
who unconsciously allows all the wheels
of her domestic management to become
visible. There is nothing more unpleas
ant to a sensitive person who Is vel
coined in a family where he expects "A
delightful visit than to feel by accident,
or otherwise, that special effort is be
ing made in his behalf The homelv old
phrase make yourself at home" has an
infinite comfort for one who has been
harassed by fussy hostess. 1t is not
necessary to speak these words, but it Is
wise to act them. A guest must be
cared for carefully, and vet not
feel the care. Every essential OF
the guest-room should be fine
and nice but not so delicate and
frail as to suggest that the room Is in
tended for rare and transient occupancy.
It is wise to provide a good lounge in
this room for those who are tired with
travel. There are many def ways of
making such room look cheerful and
inviting. In winter, if possible, have a
ruddy, open fire Eindled on the hearth,
and air and make up the room some time
before the arrival Of company. 1t is a
very unwholesome practice to leave a
bed made up a month or more at a time,
as it often Is in the guest room. The bed
in this room should simply be covered
with a sheet, old pillow and bolster cases
being put on and left till company Is an
nounced The bed and the bedding
selected for use should be thoroughly aired
in a warm room in which the window has
been opened. Under ordinary circum-
stances it is probable that guests are weary
when they arrive, and would prefer to go
at once to their room. If possible, see
that there is warm water there before
they arrive, and writing table, contain
ing pens, ink and writing paper 1t is
better to make all plans for your friends
entertainment yourself, consulting them
as little as possible. Wise housekeepers
arrange their work beforehand. and
manage to guide the domestic machinery
of their house by sly visits to the kitchen
so well that their visitors are never aware
they have been absent. Such entertain
ment means care and system; it means
continual thought for others and the sub
ordination for the time of all your own
selfish plans and projects. But who that
has cared truly for friend Will say that
this is not rewarded 2-Net0 York Tribune

since he became a General in this way,
though he was sufficiently overbearing
before that.
One fine afternoon last summer Gen
eral Bumbiethorpe was taking a walk
through the outskirts of the country
town which he had honored by choosing
1t as his place of summer soiourn. In the
course of his wanderings he came upon Il
pair of bars leading into a grassy and in
wiling meadow. The bars he let down
and walked into the meadow. He had
but half crossed the meadow when he saw.
to his horror, great black-and-white
Holstein bull emerge from the dark
shade of an apple tree and advance to-
ward him. General Bumblethorpe is not
an active man, but the steady advance Of
this enormous animal stimulated him for
the moment to great activity. And his
own rapid fight also served to stimulate
the bull, who lowered his head and
charged ferociously, believing the while.
1t was mad chase, but General Bum
blethorpe had some good rods of advan-
tage in the start, and the opposite fence
of the field was not far away. The
General ran wildly and succeeded
IN time to escape the Infatuated animal.
And then it was General Bumblethorpe
who was Infatuated. From the safe side
of the fence he stormed and ragged at the
bull, and, seeing farm house not far
away, he stalked over to it. The farmer
was choring around the barn when the
General rushed up to him.

Where TOYS Come From.

Wooden carved toys are chiefly made
in Germany and Switzerland, the cheaper
kinds in the neighborhood of Nurem-
berg, and the better qualities at Some
burg, in Thuringia, from which latter
place about twenty-four million articles,
valued at $500, 600, are annually ex-
ported. Large quantities of wooden
toys are also made in Saxony, where an
ingenious process Is in use for diminish
ing the labor involved in the production
of animals. A circular block of soft
wood is turned into ring of such a
pattern that by slicing it vertically a
representation of an animal (say an ele-
phanb is secured. Each rudimentary
figure Is then trimmed by hand, the ears,
trunk, tusks and tail, all of which are
separately turned and sliced by the same
method, are inserted; and when the
animal has been painted and vanished it
is ready for use.
Clay marbles also come exclusively
from Saxony, being made from clay
not found elsewhere. The better qualities
come from Holland, where they are
made from fragments of alabaster and
other stones. Taw and alley, the COM
mon names for the two qualities prin-
cipally used in this country, are abbre-
viations of tawny and alabaster.
A great ten days toy fair is annually
held at Leipsic, when more than six thou
sand merchants exhibit their goods in
every available inch Of space, even in
the garrets of the six-storied houses.
Marburg, in Hessen, is chiefly occupied
with the manufacture of musical toys,
while Biberach, in Wurtemberg, is noted
for substantial metal articles, such as
carriages, locomotives, furniture, etc.
The speciality of Switzerland is wooden
cottages, models, etc. Some of the
large dealers do very well out of the in
dustry, but the actual toymakers in both
countries are miserablJ paid, and find it
very hard, even by the most unremitting
toll, to gain a subsistence from their en-
ployment, many of them being obliged
to supplement their earnings by engag-
ing in outdoor labor during the summer.
The productions of Holland are very
similar to those of Germany Cham
