The Fence of the Future.

There are number of strong points ia
favor of the Tuna Hedge as the fence of
the future, the advantage of this kind of
fence may be briefly Enumerated as
follows: 1t becomes perfect barrier
against all kinds of domestic animals
after three years growth; does not sap
or impoverish the ground, being a strict
ly atmospheric plant, and will not grow
from the seed or by cutting the roots
hence will not spread, it grows only to a
certain uniform height and therefore
does not require trimming, it has been
thoroughly and successfully tested in
northern climates and does not kill out
in the winter time, it serves the double
purpose of usefulness and ornamen-
tation, as it is an evergreen and blooms
during three months of the year, an in
vitation is extended to thoroughly test
its merits, and every one will be con-
vinced that it possesses all the advant-
ages claimed for it. Messrs. Johnson &
Payne are now taking orders for the
Tuna Hedge and have met with uniform
success. Any one wishing living grow
ing fence something that will not spread
and will be fence for all time to come
should give their orders now and gel
their fence started this fall.

THE FOREIGN MINISTRY.

The proposal of the New York Her
aid that our foreign ministry be abol-
ished and a perfected consular service
be substituted therefor, while Its de-
tails are not yet known, probably pos
sesses much merit. There is something
un-American and incongruous with re-
publican simplicity in this high-priced
system of having ambassadors extraor-
dinary and ministers plenipotentiary at
the courts of monarchies where they
perform few duties save those social in
their nature, the giving OF dinners, at
tending fetes, entertaining American
society people abroad, and the like.
The system is antiquated anyway. 1t
originated in the days of monarchy,
when a subject could not leave one
country to visit another without a pass
port and its accompanying red tape;
when ministers or diplomats were en-
ployed by one monarch to lie to and
deceive another monarch as to his inten-
tions in respect of war, and to keep
close watch on the movements OF the
other. The diplomat was a kind of dig
nified spy. Language was given him to
conceal thought; the subtleties of inter
national law afforded him ingenious di-
version in the way of demanding redress
for fancied injuries, the redress being in
the shape of coin or territory if the di-
plomat's country was powerful enough
to enforce the demand, and it was also
his duty to intrigue and plot against
the peace and security of the govern
ment to whose court he was assigned if
that government was antagonistic to his
own.
The whole system was fraud,
sham, a deceit. That we should have
initiated it was bad enough, but the
height of the idiocy was reached some
years ago when it was seriously proposed
to invent some gorgeous uniform to be
worn by our ministers abroad to distin-
guish them from the lackeys and fun
keys, and the driveling American toad
les who might be abroad without
uniform, such as General E. Burd
Grubb wore at the court of Spain.
There is little excuse for this system in
these days of railways, steamships ana
telegraphs. The consuls do most of the
work, anyway, for which the ministers
extraordinary, etc., receive the pay and
credit.
Any American citizen who may be
uniustly treated abroad could, and gen.
orally does, apply to the nearest consul
for relief, and the consul can, and gen
orally does, take the case in hand and
cable the particulars to our state de-
partment, where its merits are exam
ined and from which our protests and
ultimatums are sent. By all means
perfect the consular service, for it is OF
some utility and has place in the re-
publican form of government. The
extraordinary ornaments had best be
abolished.

The P. B. Cornwall company has at
last struck the coal vein it has been
prospecting for Within the city limits OF
Whatcom for nearly a year. They sank
ten holes, and at the tenth attempt at a
depth of 41O feet found a 151a-foot vein,
of which 111s feet is good steam and
domestic coal. This is undoubtedly the
old Bellingham bay vein, which fur
nished the coast with coal years ago,
and which was abandoned while being
worked under Bellingham bay because
of a flood of water. The discovery is at
the head of Walnut street in flat coun-
try, and the vein lies nearly horizontal.
Scientific men predict that coal can be
found at less than 500 feet depth in this
vicinity. Why cannot company be
formed to try and obtain coal supply
at or near The Dalles?

It is recalled that Benjamin Harri-
sons grandfather, William Henry Har-
rison. was elected president in 1910 by
a landslide as big as the one which de-
feated the grandson in 1892. Then there
was another ancestor who was promi-
nently mixed up in the landslide which
severed the American colonies from
England, and another, further back in
history, in the landslide which deposed
Charles Stuart for the great commoner
Cromwell in England. The Harrison
family seems to run to avalanches.

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher Talks
of OIdtime Facts in Godey's
Magazine.
Time was when Election day, Thanks
giving and New Years we're New Eng
land holidays, but of Christmas and the
many pleasant things connected with it
we knew nothing until later years.
Now it is the children's day. a day in
which the home circle and friends par
ticipate.
In looking over some ancient cook
books a few days since, we had the
good fortune to find some very elaborate
and curious accounts of Christmas and
marriage feasts extending far back to
the memory Of 1.-The oldest inhabitant"
of the present day. Ii they furnish half
the amusement 10 others that we have
had in examining them, we shall be
satisfied. :
The barbarous and most eXtravagant
preparation for feast of any kind
which was customary long before
the Christmas era continued In
full force for many years after.
While Christians were subjected
to constant prosecutions they could
not, venture to prepare Christmas din
her or observe the day openly, though
of course their religion had somewhat
changed the ideas that they had received
in childhood of what constituted feast
or the mode of preparing it.
Therefore, in giving the history of
feast days, as held by noble or royal
families, we also show what was done
| for Christmas. as far as Christians could
enjoy it, even if compelled to prepare
for it privately-and also as it was kept
after the more active persecution par
! italy ceased.
| But for mauy years all were so Ell
| tirely ignorant of the proper way of pre-
| pairing food that, with abundant ma
terial all about them, the combinations
were often so repulsiye and nauseating
| that one finds it difficult to believe the
| accounts given to be correct.

A CHRISTMAS INCIDENT.

She was such a very little girl that
only the impressive seriousness of her
childish pleadings and the two tiny
tears that glistened in her pretty blue
eyes induced the manager to give
her a position as cash girl during the
holiday rush.
They put her into the shoe depart
ment of the big store, where she soon
became a favorite with everybody be-
cause Of her quantity mature ways that
contrasted so strangely with her sweet
child face.
The store had been kept open long
after the usual hour for closing, for it
was Christmas eve and the alsles of the
salesroOmS were still crowded with be-
lated customers. Down in the base
ment, where the shoe department was,
business had gradually grown dull, and
the tired clerks were waiting for the
signal to go home.
On one Of the counters sat the little
cash girl.
They called her Rosy for short.
Mr.. Dubbs, the head of the depart
ment, a g0od-natured, elderly gentle
man, stood beside her. surrounded by a
number of statesmen and women.
Rosy was speaking.

she clapped her little hands, looked
around brightly and thumped the side
of the counter with her heels.
do you get lots of nice things to
make you happy?" inquired a young
man with very small head and large
red ears, who wore very high collar
"Oh, my, no; never geth nothing"
she replied, ngrammatically. .but am

But why?" persisted the questioner.
'"Well, you thee" here Rosy dropped
her voice to a mysterious whisper. as if
imparting great secret, ''becauth
mamma promithed she would thtay al
home with nth, and not go out to wash
for people; and oh, what fun twill be
! to have her with nth all day." and she
gave the counter another good whaek
with her heel to emphasize her delight
at the prospect.
Those who stood around her looked
at each other.
In reply to the question of Mr.. Dubbs,
who had became quite interested by

Archaic Discoveries.

The London correspondent of the
New York Times says: Egypt is also
still the centre of the most impor-
tant archaic discoveries, and the
chief interest of the year is focused
on excavations at Tel ell Amarna,
where tables have been found giving
in detail the history of Canaan a
century before Joshua's conquest,
They show, however, that the Egyp-
tians of that period understood
Babylonian cuneiform writing, and
exchanged in it diplomatic CORES
pondence with the Assyrians. Prof
Sayce, presiding in the section OF
Assyriology, feels able this year to
claim for Babylonian civilization
priority in antiquity over Egyptian
There is such splendid digging
force in the whole East now that
the congress was full of confidence
that the coming year would be one
of unrivalled discoveries, advancing
our knowledge of the far past.
