Beds Arc Unknown and tho People Sleep
In Hammociss.
Beds, as we understand them, are un-
rnown, but hammoclSs are hung every
where, In parlors and halls and dining
rooms, and along the whole length Of
The veranda, to catch every breeze that
b blowing, so that any number of un-
expected guests can be "slung up" in a
Jingle house without Inconvenience.
Except In the most expensive residences
The front rooms only are ceiled, and
atticed windows are much more COM
non than glass. Another thing that
strikes the stranger is the peculiar APP
pearance Of the people as compared
with those he has seen IN other parts
pf the country. The regularly de-
Icended Portuguese and Africans of
course do not differ greatly from their
brethren and sisters in other parts; but
they are few here, while the Indian
race predominates. In Para, as in no
,ther city, the aboriginals of Brazil
| may be seen both in pure blood and in
avery possible degree Of mixture with
whites and blacks in every strata Of
society. They occupy the highest gov
srnment positions, own the grandest
mansions and finest estates, and figure
rs capitalists and servants, priests and
politicians, soldiers, sailors, profess
sional men, street peddlers, bellies and
beaux. The most beautiful woman in
the city, wife of a nabob, who rides In
IN emblazoned carriage, is said to be o1
alf and 'alf negro and Indian blood.

THE CHOLERA.

It has now been demonstrated that the
ieum or lower small intestine Is the main
seat of the pathological changes caused by
cholera. What Is true of the cholera bacll-
lus is true of the most contagious diseases.
Many of these parasites can be taken into
the stomach without doing any injury. II
is only when they find in the lower in
testines material upon which they can
feed and In which they can breed that
they do the damage which ultimately ex-
tends all over the system. The remedy Is
plain. 1t is to remove from the system all
waste material thus preventing not only
cholera but fevers and contagious malades
of every sort. The Laxative Gum Drops
are the best thing for all maladies that
spring from indigestion because they ex-
cite the secretions and thus expel the NOR
bid matter that forms the nest for II /
microbes that attack the system. Th /

An Excellent House for Flock of Ono
Dozen Hens.
One of the most essential things to
q poultry house is the window. Plenty
of light makes house comfortable,
and, as fowls detest darkness, too much
light cannot be given.
The illustration represents building
10 feet long, feet wide, feet high In
front and feet high at the rear, the
roof covered with tarred felt or any
other waterproof material. Two large
windows, each 40x70 inches, give light,
they being placed near together at the
southwest corner of the roosting
apartment Two doors are shown,

window or transom over the door. The
two rooms are separated by lath par
tition. The roosts are arranged over a
platform at the rear of the roosting-
room, with the nests under the plat
form. The cost of the house, includ-
ing labor, should not exceed S35. The
ventilators, one at each end, are seen
at Fl H. They are circular holes IL
inches in diameter cut in each end OF
the house near the top, but far enough
from the front to clear the corner posts,
and, as the matter of ventilation is inn

of notice.

Caterpillar in Crinoline.

At Rio met with very common in
habitant of the tropics, huge cater
pillar who built himself a sort of crino-
line of sticks, and then covered it with
= thick web. This dwelling he carried
about with him as snail carries her
she'll, spinning an outwork of web
round the twig of pet tree, by which
his house hung, leaving him free to put
out three joints of his head and neck
and eat up all the leaves and flowers
within reach. When the branches are
bare he spins bit more web on a
higher twig, bites through the old one,
Jerks his whole establishment up stairs
and begins eating again. He had a
kind of elastic portico to his house,
which closed over his head at the
slightest noise, the house shutting up
like telescope, and then when all was
| quiet again, out came his head, down
dropped the building, and the gour
mand again set himself TO his task oi
continual feasting At last came the
sleep of the chrysalis, and he finally be
came a poor, dowdy moth.-Recollec

As the bearers slowly made their way down

because the republican party is not
confined for its presidential material,
like the democratic party, to one
man; because the republican party
by its work always inspires the con.
fidence Of the people while the demo.
cratic party inspires the feeling of
distrust. The republican party is a
party of principles and not u party
Of meaningless platitudes 1t is the
party of the people, of progress, of
freedom and education. 1t has for
its golden rule progress and not retro
erosion it carries its banner where
where it can he read and understood
it is the party of convictions, of ideas,
Of action. 1t knows no such word
as cowardice in its lexicon of words
what it believes it says and does

why the next president will be a re,
