Figures on stock fluctuations are now
drawing public attention TO the interesting
fact that the shrinkage in stock values by
the recent decline is no less than 81, O0O. 900.
But it is very likely that the sams stocks
were inflated to that amount before the
drop. Possibly that might have had some
thing to do with the pa icky condition. 1t
may have precipitated it. But the most
striking te Gture of the expansion and
shrinkage is that when we consider alone
the actual investments aud average earning
power, which constitute the only eleme ats
of real value, we dni that this principal
railway stocks are worth exactly as much
now as they were before the decline.

The Athletic Girl.

From the SomerUflIe Journal
She rides. and walks. and runs. and rows.
She's quick and enegetic.
How she turns upher pretty nose
At all the woes pathetic
Which ill her weaker sisters minds,
And keep them all complaining:
Her greatest Joy in life Sue finds
In her athletic training.
She boxes. fences, rides, and swins.
And keeps her blood in motioa;
While other women nurses their whims
And sigh for man S devotion.
Shes never known TO have the blues.
To headaches she's stranger.
You may be sure that she'd refuse
To FAINT at sight of danger.
A perfect woman, full of health
And life, all men adore her
To her they'd gladly bring their wealth,
And lay it down before her.
But she, Diana-like, is cold
And hates their love-sicx signing,
And 80 sle stops their wooing bold
And sends her lovers flying
She's cold; but there will come some day
man who's fit to WOO her,
And then, the more she says MIN nay,
Tne closer he'll pursue her.
To love she wholesome happy day
She'll give herself in marriage.
Later her strength will come in play
Behind baby carriage.

The farmers alliance seems to have been
squarely beaten in Georgia, where Gov Gordon
which is one of the pet devices of the alliance
Gov. Gordon is every inch man. He had re-
markable career as a soldier. and, though fight
ing In bad cause, one cannot help admiring
his pluck. In one battle Of several in which he
was struck, he received no less than five bullet
wounds, was struck by a spent ball and had
two other balls pass harmlessly through his
clothing. AS soon as he recovered from his
wounds he was back in the army again, and
continued at the head of his troops until the
close of the war. Whatever one may think Of
his politics, now or then, he commands respect
for his courage.

he lay down on a rough bench on che plat

AT the end of the first hour he called for

of four hours and ten minutes he fell down

In complete survey of the shaky finan-
cial situation the London Economist gives
some figures showing how the London mar
ket has been affected latterly by an inun-
dation Of new enterprises. For example,
the amount of new subscriptions up to Nov.
S of this year was e12s 19O.32c For the
entire year of 1887 they were g1S9, 436, 267;
for 1888 they came to EGO, $4,000. Thus,
the total amount Of fresh capital involved
in the investments Of less than three years
is 94S7, 775 $50, whereas, the total for the
entire years Of 1885, 1886 and 1887 is e277,-
10000. That is to say, the engagements of
fresh money for the last thirty-five months
amount to over $1,0O0,0OO.0 900 more than
those of the entire years 1885, 1856 and 1887.
IL was enough OF drain on financial re-
sources to be seriously felt anywhere.

Clean the inside of vinegar cruets and bottles
by putting in crushed eggshells with a little
water and shaking.
To prevent cake adhering to the pan when
baked scatter a little flour over the creased sur
face before pouring in the dough.
Consumptves will find relief from using daily
glYcerne and powdered willow charcoal. Pro-
portions: One part of charcoal to two parts of
pure glycerine.
Onions should be soaked in salted warm water
previous to cooking to partly remove any strong
odor they may possess. Peas, string beans, and
green corn should not be prepared for cooking
until about ready to be used.
To clean papered walls: Wipe down with
flannel cloth tied over a broom or brush Cut
thick piece of stale bread and rub down with
this. Begin at the top go straight down. Care
must, of course, be taken not to wear upon the
paper.
To launder red table linen, use tepid water
with little powdered boraX, which serves to
set the color. Wash the linen separately and
quickly, using very little soap; rinse in tepid
water containing little boiled starch; dry in
the shade, and iron When nearly dry.
There is nothing better for a cut than pow
dered resin Pound it until fine and put it in
an empty, clean pepper box with perforated
top. Then you can easily sft it out on the cut,
and put soft cloth around the injured mem
ber and wet with cold water once in while.
1t will prevent Inflammation and soreness
When new lamp chimneys are bought place in
a kettle of cold water let it come to n boil, then
set back of stove, where it will gradually cool.
This is an excellent toughening process. All
glassware, dishes, tumblers, and the like treated
this way will break less easily. Keep the kettle
covered tightly until the water has had time to
cool.
Cider is strongly recommended as drink for
women. 1t is slightly alcoholic, quite stimula-
tive, and the acids in it render it very beneficial
to the action of the liver. In this respect il
possesses great advantages over all malt prepa-
boating tendency. Cider-cup makes really
pleasant dinner drink and an excellent substi-
tute for the light sour wines so much used at
table in foreign countries.

All these whimsicalities, born as much of
early ignorance as fashionable caprice, are very
bewildcring and irritating But, after all, it
becomes question in your mind if they are not
preferable to the phonetic exactness and con
sistencies of thepurists When you hear >nowl-
edge called no-ledge and rational rdytional 1t
turns you right round into the verest Tory who
ever lived. You want to cover yourself over
with primroses at once, and begin calling lilac
laylock, China Chayay, chariot chariot, cucum-
ber co,Ucunber, asparagus sparowgraSS, and
gold gO0ld, like some of the greatest and best
old people in the kingdom.
One of the most difficult of things is to decide
which is the least Objectionable, the aristocrat
or the radical, if you are thrown much with
either. You may be irritated at the cumber-
someness of the one-the slowness, the weight,
the stolid tixedness of everything connected
with him; but it is question if you do not, in
the long run, find the vulgar self-assertion, the
loud eXpansiveness, the never-ceasing push OF
the radical far more eXasperating, and you think
that after all, the exchange of old lamps for
new would be quite as much of mistake for
the English people as it was found to be by the
mother of Aladdin.

THE ORIGINAL ASTOR.
His Forcible Expression on Real Estate and
His Love of Literary Society.

From Lesies Popular Monthly.
Well do remember, when a boy, hearing
John Jacob Astor, the original of the name, say
to my father by way of advice: "Buy dirt; it
won't run away" On this principle, which he
instilled into his children, he bought real estate
but never sold. / heard him once say: 81 will
never give lease, for, if it is good one, they
will sell it; if bad, they will run away and leave
it," think he hardly knew how rich he was,
or, if he did, had a full appreciation of it. l
once heard him say to Philip Hone, who was
mayor of the city of New York, and supposa-
bly, very rich man: 'Philip, how much are
you worth ?" The answer was; "Oh, about
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, As
tor" The then thirty-millionaire responded:
~ don't know but that's as good as if you were
a rich man,
Astor was lifelong friend of Irving, Pauld-
ing, and Halleck, the latter being for many
years his secretary, and who often related to
me that he told his employer that he did not
want to be rich, but that if he had steady in
come of 5000 a year he would be satisfied. The
old man, as a grim joke, left the poet exactly
that sum per annum in his Will, Which 1t is
pretty well known that his son William b. in
creased to comfortable sum as long as Fitz-
Greene lived Astor had great liking for old
