REVIEW OF PORTLAND Who'll sALE MARKET

rOh lhE w ZEN ENDING Jan. ID.
The business situation has not developed any
particularly new featur the past week, and we
have no movements of Importance to report. JAN
uary is usual slow and disappointing month
and this one SO far is no exception. Food staples
are holding alb. ut steady. with hardly as much &C
tivity as might be expected at this season. The
demand for Fl ur is moderate, but values are on
very steady basis, and the market is firm on all
popular brands. Provisions maintain fairly
steady tone at about last weeks figures. Sugars
have been strong, but in prices there is no change
to note; in raw MuscOvado grades exhibit more
strength and they cannot be bought for less
money than made on late sales; Centrifugals are
also irmer; at New Orleans Sugar has improved,
aud has advanced within a week NC; the stock Of
raw sugar in the four ports at latest dates was
8033 tons, against 80 All tons in 1889, and As Z.
tons in 1883. Coffee is unchanged; the next Rio
crop is estimated at from 100000 to 100000
bags Teas are steady on most kinds: values are
on a low basis, and as the season advances better
prices are likely to prevail. The fish market pre-
sents no new features; business is unusually dull
and to move round lots concessions would have
TO be made. Fresh Beef frmer quotations revised;

The Nature Of Orchids.
Popular Sciecne Monthly

The orchids, conquerors of the light,
may we'll claim pardon for their triumph
over their humble companions of the
gardens, for their victory is fairly
achieved. They astonish us when we
tirst examine them, then charm us. Ma
lure has been liberal with them, and
they have everything. Their flowers
are full of that curious charm that cap
tivates. Their colors are tremendously
toned, and always bright and elegant.
Their odor is sweet and penetrating, but
does not cloy. Notwithstanding their
thin texture, which gives them delicate
and frail air, they last longer than other
ornamental flowers. Nothing, in fact,
seems to be wanting to them but more
lively and abundant foliage, and that
can be supplied by mingling fern leaves
with them.
1t was long supposed that these Won
derful plants were extremely delicate
and capricious. This was a mistake.
To their other virtues they join the rare
one of simplicity.
Nearly all the orchids cultivated in
greenhouses are natives of the inter
tropical zone, and it was supposed from
this fact that they required considerable
heat. But it has gradually been estab
lished that a high temperature really
binders their best development. A con.
siderable number of them in their native
state grow on high mountains, under
exposure to a bracing atmosphere; and
they are now cultivated in moderately
warmed and freely ventilated green
houses. They are, therefore, relatively
hardy plants, well adapted to the deco
ration of our rooms.

Selling Frog Meat.

Two or three times n month a bright
boy with q business like air visits the
hotels and restaurants. He was en-
countered the other day in down town
lunch room, where he had just sold the
proprietor dozen fat frogs. They were
neatly strung along a stick, and one man
at first took them for reed birds. 81
caught these down in the Neck" said the
boy, "and it amt no fun either, going
into ditch after them with a net"
what do you charge for themF'
"Well, for nice, big ones, can get
sixty cents dozen, answered the youth.
A German woman from some place
"down in Jersey" peddles frogs, too.
She is laxative enough, except when
inquisitive folks try to find out just
where the festive froggy can be found.
Then she shrewdly scents a possible
competitor, and thereafter remains as
mute as the proverbial oyster.
The usual way to cook bull frogs, or
cow frogs, as the boys call them, is, &C
cording to certain gastronomic authori-
ties, simple thing. Roll the frogs in
cracker dust and then fry them as you
would an oyster. One gentleman OF
pronounced epicurean tastes says that if
the flavor of the succulent dainty is de.
sired, it should simply be fried in butter

Fashions In Diamonds.
Jewellers Weekly.l


Diamonds-fine diamonds especially
are as fashionable as ever. Jewels com
posed of clustered diamonds of different
sizes are losing ground in general esti-
nation. They are now considered as in
effective at distance, pretty as they
may appear on close inspection. The
new idea is to set the stones in rows, SO
they constitute geometric, or at least
conventional, designs, which exhibit the
diamonds to the best advantage, show
off from afar as well as near. The reader
need not be told that far more care and
careful manipulation is necessary to
create a jewel OF this description. The
stones must be matched in size and color.
as the slightest variation is Immediately
noticeable, whereas in the clustered ar
rangement diamonds of all sorts and
shapes may be crowded together with
more or less artistic effect
