EDGAR A. POe's COTTAGE.

Sale Of the House In Which the Poet Wrote
Seme Of His Famous Pieces.
The cottage at Fordham in which Edgar A.
Poe wrote some OF his most famous poems
notably The Bells" "Annabel Lee" and
"Ulalume," the purchase OF which some
months ago by Edward Fearing Gill, Poe's
biographer, is said to have fallen through, is
one of the most interesting sights about New
York TO one interested in literary relics. The
cottage and farm On which it stands were ps1r-
chased for S., $3.50 1t was Mr. Giis inten-

Wonen's Ways.

One hears much now OF the need of eti-
quette in the Boston schools. By all means
don't conflne it to those quarters. Spare q
little for everyday affairs For instance:
The other night an empty car reached Winter
street, bound south. A young woman entered
by the front door, marched to the other end
Of the car and sat down She left the door
open, sat there and shivered The conductor
was busy at one end, the driver was busiar at
the other A young man entered by the
rear door, closed the front one, returned to
the rear, and sat down In tho second corner.
In came another woman by tho front door,
marched to the rear, sat down, leaving tho
door open. and shivered A man sprang on
the moving car, entered the open door, closed
it after him. and sat down The car stopped
to avoid running down dray A third
woman Of uncertain ago entered by that
front door, walked to the other end Of the
car, sat down and shjvered. She, too, had
left the door open. Further, by actual count
within that haf-mile, nine women entered
that door and left it open, exposing the pas
sengers to the full force of the wintry air.
Eleven men entered the same door, each
shutting 1t behind him. Are we to infer that
these nine women were brought up in saw
millsi Doubtless they could bring up sins
without number against the men, too But
stu quoque" simply doubles the argument
with which we begin.-B0ston Post.

Where Does II B,se4

Where does the river ST Lawrence fsei
How many readers of The Companion can
answer this question In geography Some
viii probably say in Lake Ontario; others IN
Lake Superior. Neither answer is quite cor
rect
Like the Amazon, this river has different
name for each part Of its course. The lower
part Of the great South American river 10
called by the natives tie Amasonas, the mid
die part Is the Solimoes, and the upper the
Maranon.
So the ST. Lawrence, between Lake Erie
and Lake Ontario, is called the Niagara, be
tween Lake Erie and Lake Huron the ST
Clair and Detroit river, and between Lake
Huron and Lake Superior the St MaryS
river. Yet are these ell one and the same
river, the lakes being but 50 many expansions
Of its waters
Beyond Lake Superior, 20 the northward,
there is still another portson Of It's course,
called the Eepigon, . noble stream Of clear,
azure-tinted water, nearly as large g the
Hudson in volume, which flows down from
the great Lake NepiSon IN the heart q the

the mental mischief wrought by what may
be called an unvarying intellectual diet Of

Evolution Of the Voice.

Darwin seems inclined to believe that
Is women have sweetes voices than men
they were tho first to acquire musical
powers in order to attract the other sex,
by which I suppose he means that the
feminine voice owes its greater sweet
ness to more persevering culture for pur-
poses of Irritation. I do not know
whether the ladies of the present day
will own this soft impeachment, or
whether they will be fattered by the
suggestion that their remote ancestresses
lived in perpetual leap year Of court
ship.
Other emotions, however, besides the
master passion of love had to be ex-
pressed, joy. anger, fear and pain had
al 10 find utterance, and the nervous
eentefs excited by these various stimuli
threw the whole muscular system into
violent contractions, which in the case
of the muscles moving the chest and the
vocal cords naturally produced sound
that Is to say, voice. These movements,
at first accidental and purposeless, In
time became inseparably associated with
the emotional state giving rise to them,
80 as to coincide with Il, and thus serve
as an index o. expression thereof. From
this to the voluntary enaiasion OF vocal
sounds IL an easy step, and IL is probable
enough that the character Of those
sounds was primarily due to the ''imita-
ton and modification Of different natural
sounds, the voices Of other animals, and
mans own instructive cries. Sir Moren
Mackenzie in Popular Science Monthly.

A gentleman who is now wealthy and

he was boy of Il before he owned a

They went barefooted from April until

mon to see young men and women walk
ing the village streets barefooted, al
though quite smartly dressed in other

The father of the gentleman referred
to was justice of the peace in far

upon to marry couples.

Only a medicine possessed Of extraordi-
nary merits could sustain itself under
such a business policy. The "Golden
Medical Discovery :" is such a medicine,
and has proven its ability to sustain it's
proprietors, even though sold on such
extraordinary terms.
As a remedy for all Blood, Skin and
Scalp Diseases, it has won for itself
world wide fame. Especially has it
manifested its potency in curing Salt
rheum, Eczema, letter, Pimples,
B%lotches, Eruptions, old Scrofulous
Sores, Ulcers. and kindred ailments.
AS a. remedy for the peculiar weak

1t is but natural that the people
should bestow their patronage upon
these medicines, since none other are

To Recover sunken Treasure.

A company, it wa stated. lately set out
from Sydney to New Zealand to recover
sunken treasure from some old wreck on
the west coast OF the Middle island, but so
far no returns have been published the OPP.
e~rations probably not being complete. The
subject Of sunken treasure reminds one Of
the heaps of gold carried in the galleons Of
the past. In 1859 a ship Of war from Lis
bon had on board 9,0OO,O0o of crusades in
diamonds and about 100000 crowns tur-
nois" piastres, makingthe whole 29,050,oO
livres turnois. So much for q single ship.
In 1774 two Spanish ships from Vera Cruz
and Havana arrived with %, 1000, 900 crowns,
exclusive of merchandise valued roundly at
81, 000, 900 crowns. Such examples could be
multiplied. OF the cargo Of an English In
diaman in 1771, one item-a diamond in
the rough-was valued at G1o0, 900.
