PriVacY 81 nrfIlionairea.

The majority of the very rich men
live In comparative simplicity. / was
chatting with one the other day-a
man whose estate, to use the colo
quialism of the bank, would probably
'tcut up" not less than s., 600, 900, and
he asserted that almost all of the busy
men who had accumulated enormous
fortunes were so exhausted by the Of
fort which was required to get pos
session of SO great an amount that in
their private Life they courted nothing
but repose.
The strain of social entertainment on
a large scale is very great. and there are
few men who are equal to it unless
they give up entirely their business re-
lations. It is a marvel to many bust
rs men how Cornelius Vanderbilt, for
..,tance, can attend as steadily and
faithfully as he does to the business of
tho New York Central railway system,
and to the very great demands made
upon him to secure a satisfactory rein
yestment of his income, and yet devote
SO much time as he does to social enter
tainment
The only explanation which occurs to
busy men is that Mr.. Vanderbilt is still
young, and that he finds some recrea-
ton in giving elaborate dinners and in
dancing until the small hours of the
morning. He will not continue this,
however, very long. As the years
weigh upon BIN and the care Of his
enormous estate increases he will be
compelled either to abandon active
daily business or to give up his social
recreation.-NewY York Cor. Philadel-
phia Press.

So powerful is human instinct, that
some of its suggestions become en-
bodied in social and household Gus
toms. The people know and feel that
at the beginning of the spring season
the system needs an Alternative and a
purifying tonic and stimu ant. In
parts of the country it is the custom
for the housewife to dose her brood
with sassasfras tea. Among the sim
pie remedies that our ancestors en-
ployed, this decoction aas continued
to hold its own. The demand for a
spring alternative and tonic, however,
is filled more eficaciously by S. s. s.,
which is itself as simple as natures
remedial medicine should be. It
purifes the blood, cleanses and
strengthens the system, and prepares
the human machine to stand the wear
and tear of the summer month.

Ancient Chimney and Fireplace.

The first chimney was built in house
in the Fourteenth century. 1t was the
fireplace of today, with scarcely varia-
ton. In some cases the halls and
lodges of the great lords were provided
with banqueting room in which one
whole end of the apartment was taken
up by the chimney. This was largely
for the purpose of cooking, and a whole
OK was often roasted in sight of the
table on which it was later served. Dis
tant portions of the room were cold,
but, as the people were warriors and
roughened in fiber by constant expos
ure, they were supposed to get along
with an occasional turn in the warm
end of the room while the feast was
preparing.
But if a pilgrim, a palmer, man
who had been to the Holy Land, should
come along, he was favored guest
and was allowed to sit in the place Of
honor at the side of the great fireplace
and to regale himself on the choicest
of the viands and the best of wine, re-
paying the host for the entertainment
later by singing or chanting an account
of his experiences in the land of the
Saracens. Chicago Herald.

French Theaters.

principal theatre of the town belongs
to the municipal council, which partly
recoups itself for the capital sunk by
the rents charged to the temporary

profit out of its theater business, but TO

In Germany the telegraphs are the
property of the government. The pro-
prietors of a large number of daily
newspapers, believing that they were
required to pay too high charge for
their telegraphic messages, petitioned
the government for decrease of the
press rates. The petition was referred
to the Emperor William. He consid-
cred it few moments, and then wrote
upon the margin: '"The present rate is
not too high. The useless dispatches
that the newspapers publish every day
prove this superabundantly." - San
