Special Paris Letter to THE SUNDAY CALL,

PARIS, Aug. %. 1891 - Yesterday an
Egyptian caravan, composed of 100 person
ages - Fellahs, Bedouius. Arabs and
Swahilis-and eighty animals-white asses,
steeds from the desert, dromedaries, sheep
and goats-made its appearance at the jar
din d'Acclimatation, Bois de Boulogne. In
this garden Parisans have seen many types
of the human race-Ashantees, Dahomians,
Esouimaux, SlDghalese, etc. - but inter
esting as these exhibitions have been, none
has appeared SO picturesque as the Egyptian
caravan.
Near the entrance of the garden is a real
Arabian village, composed of tents and
rudimentary huts. where Egyptian life can
be thoroughly studied. In the Egyptian
bazaar one sees carpenters, confectioners,
turner's, merchants, and caryers OF ivory
wood and copper. A barber shows us a
curious collection Of razors and mirrors.
and he seems to be busily occupied, for the
Arab shAyes not only the face but the head,
leaving only one long strand OF braided hair,
by which Mohammed lifts him to the sixth

The Egyptian restaurant IS especially IN

white tunics, serve the kawa to visitors,
while the almehs dance on the gayly deco

New Idea to Be Inaugurated In Read

A new idea in cooperative housekeeping

considerable interest. Albert Thalheimer.

AIRY changes in housekeeping will un-

mental idea of the project is to estab-

site selected is on Mt. Penn, above this city.

On Friday Major Larkins started to begin
a $50, 600 libel suit against us. 1t took us
two hours to hunt him up and discourage
him. He is doing as we'll as circumstances
will permit, and unless Inflammation sets in

On Saturday fifteen Of the cowboys be-
longing to General Stover's ranch came over
to see US. They had several ropes along.
When they got here we were off on fishing
excursion. They pied the four page form
and shot our gray mule, but did not have as
pleasant time as if we had been home,
The above are our excuses, and such
thing as our coming out on half-page
again will probably never be heard Of. We
shall issue an extra supplement next week
to make up for it.
'Ir's DAYPo."-We understand that Big
Jim Henderson is trying to work up feel
ing among the boys against our nomination
as Mayor because we insist on DrOnouncing
the word depot as ''daypo." We don't do 1t
to put on airs over the boys, but because 1t
comes perfectly natural to US. We lived the
first twenty years of our life in Boston, and
it comes natural to US To give the French
accent to our words, as Henri" for Henry.

We don't believe the boys will go back on

ERRATA-Last week we had local Item
which we are convinced did an injustice to
the genial Tomahawk Brown, proprietor Of
the saloon on Mexico avenue, known as
"Murderers' Delight" The item was to the
effect that Mr.. Brown had shot old Joe, the
half-breed. because the latter beat him out
of the drinks shaking dice. aud we advised
the boys to give the shooter a few feet of
rope. MIR. Brown called upon us yesterday
and subscribed for the Kicker for one year.
He explained that he only shot old Joe in
the leg anyhow, and he didn't do that until
after he had been called liar seven or eight
times. We are entirely satisfied that he had
any amount of prOvOcation, and We only
wonder that he did not shoot the aged Joeph
bang through the right lung and kill him on
the spot. Mr.. Browns advertisement also
appears in this issue. He is one of those
go-ahead, enterprising men who believe
that advertising pays.

teemed contemporary has ached for some-
body to shoot at him, so that he could get up

ANCESTORS AND TITLES.
High Birth Is Like a Stream That Gro-
Shallower aa Tt Flows

High Birth Is Like a Stream That Grows
Shallower as 1t Flows.
In regard to aristocracy Daniel Webster
once wrote: There may be, ana there often
Is, regard for ancestry which nourishes
only weak pride; and there Is also care
for posterity, which only disguises hapit-
ual avarice or hides the working of low
and grOvcling vanity. But there is also
moral and philosophical regard for our
ancestors which elevates the character and
improves the beast" AristOcratic titles are
often obtained by dishOnorable means, says
Texas Siftings. Many man becomes igno-
Bile TO become noble
The confidence of nobility of birth has
rendered men ignoble, just as the opinion Of
wealth makes some men poor. Lord Bacon
has compared those who lived in the higher
spheres to these heavenly bodies in the
armament which have much admiration but
little rest. Titles are properly the insignia
OF wise and honest men. The fool or KIN ave
that wears one is falsifer. They who di-
late upon their glorious ancestry are fool
ishly vain of debt which probably they
will never be able TO pay. 1t has also been
narrowed and more insignificant as we
ascend to its source. The stream OF ances-
try, on the contrary, often vigorous, pure
and powerful at its fountain head, usually
becomes more feeble, shallow aud corrupt
as 1t flows downward.-Boston Herald.

A Plea for More sIsen.

A German specialist, Dr. Cold, has recent
ly pleaded for giving young people more
sleep. A healthy infant sleeps most of the
time during the first weeks; and in the early
years people are disposed to let children
sleep as much as they will. But from six to
seven, when school begins, there is a conf
plete change. At the age of ten or eleven
the child sleeps only eight or nine hours,
when he needs at least Ten or eleven, and as
he grows older the time of rest Is shortened.
DR.. Cold believes that up to twenty youth
needs nine hours sleep and an adult should
have eight or nine. With insufficient sleep
the nervous system, and brain especially,
not resting enough and ceasing to rest nor
mally, we find exhaustion, excitability and
intellectual disorders gradually taking the
place of love of work. general well-being
aud the spirit of nitative.-Nature.

A LIES RECORD.

A book was given me years ago:
Its leaves were pure aud white as snow.
Each page with delicate care was lined,
The space between for writing designed.
A cover of velvet did 1t enEold.
Fastened so strong with a clasp of gold,
Aud on 1t one read in letters clear:
" Record of life to be written here
BY the angel Kind who attends you.
See that the record is good as true"
The book was taken and laid away,
To be examined some future day.
1 then had Just come rom "Nowhere Land"
With spirit pure from our Fathers hand
Knowing naught of the ways OF this life.
Its joys OF sorrows, its peace OF strife.

And soon shall enter the silent fold,
Well open the book ani what's there see
That the good angel has writ OF me.

HOW MOUNTAINS WE'RE MADE.
Intricacy and Significance of Geological
Structure.

Intricacy and Significance of Geological
Structure.
Foremost in their geographic Importance,
and in the intricacy and significance Of their
geologic structure and origin, are the noun
tain belts which consist of folded rock for
nations. The strata forming the upper part
of the earth's crust are bent up and down in
long, nearly straight or curvlng, wave-like
ridges and troughs, and where their disturb
ance was greatest and successive ridged
folds are closely pressed together. The
waves Of the rock structure are then pushed
to such steepness that their sides become
parallel with each other, and the entire
fold is driven forward into an inclined
position. The order of the strata on
the lower side of the oppressed fold
Is thus inverted: the originally highest
and last formed deposits. there lie beneath
older beds, in an overturned series Sub
aerial erosion then wears down the undua-
tions and the crests of the closely folded
strata, often planning them off until long
section, crossing mountain ranges, passes
from older TO newer beds and onward from
newer to older. in several alterations, hav-
ing throughout the whole nearly constant
steep dip. Owing to the interbedding of
hard and enduring sandstone, quartZite,
gness and other rock formations, with more
easily erOded limestone, shales, incoherent
sandstones or schlsts, the erosion commonly
produces new topography, making hollows
and long valleys where the more erosible
beds have been removed, and leaving ridges
and mountain ranges of the harder rocks.
More than this. when erosion has been con-
tinue6 through very long periods it tends
toward the ultimate result of removing the
upward curved or anticlinal portions OF the
great folds and sparng the originally lower
downward curved or synclinal portions,
until valleys take the places which were
originally occupied by the highest upheav-
ais, while the original troughs. where the
rocks were most compacted by pressure, re-
main now as the principal mountain ridges.
Under denudation the folded mountainous
belt fulfils the prophecy, Every valley
shall be exalted and every mountain and
hill shall be made low."-POpular Science

no little difficulty in collecting fares ON a

of the car without adding TO its length, and
so to construct the car that the collection of

Gently brought out by the J. G. Brill Com
pany Of this city.
AS will be seen from the cut the car has
no platform, front or back, but instead has
a vestibue in the center opening out to the
street. A door at either side of the yesti-
bule opens to compartment. the larger o r
forward apartment being for mixed passen-
gers and the smaller for smokers.
The conductor stands in the vestibule,
thus giving him complete control of the car.
With the entrance at the middle of the
car it will be seen that the passengers can
be more readily loaded and uuloaded than
If the platform was at one end of the car,
while at the same time the fares can be col
lected with more facility.-Ex.
