The Vatican, the ancient palace of
the Popes Of Rome, is the most mag
nificent building of the kind In the
world. It stands on the right bank of
the Tiber, on hill called the Vati-
canus, because the Latins formerly
worshipped Vaticinium, an ancient
circular deity at that palace. Exactly
when the building was commenced no
one knows. Charlemagne is known
to have inhabited it over q thousand
years ago. The present extent of the
building is enormous, the number of
rooms, at the lowest computition, be-
ing 4,422. It's treasures of marble
statues, ancient gems, paintings,
books, manuscripts, ect., are to be COM
pare only with those in the British
Musium. The length of the Statue
Museum alone is fraction over a
mile. Conservative writers say that
the gold contained in the medals,
vessels, chains, and other object pre-
served in the Vatican would make
more gold coins than the whole Of the

Hinta ON Furnishing.

A house or room crowded with pictures
is not in good taste, for the effect is confus.
ing, and the beauties of few can be appre-
ciated. The position of picture depends
somewhat upon whether it has glass or
not. Place oil paintings SO that the light
will fall upon them obliquely if you would
show them to advantage.
In ordinary rooms pictures should hang
on n level with the eye. The effect OF
many good pictures is spoiled because they
are hung too high. Only small pictures
can be safely hung between windows
We all know the delight of a closet, and
alas, we know. too. the misery of doing
without, SO that plan for devising the
luxury can hardly come amiss. In almost
all rooms the corners are practically waste
space; they fill no need and supply no
want, yet they are there, and they might
be turned to good account. Such simple
device as fastening a strip of japanese
diagonally from wall to wall makes the
foundation of most convenient closet. It
is first attached in a perfectly secure man.
ner little below the ceiling; then below
it again is placed brass rod. and from
this hangs pair of heavy curtains. The
space can be as small or as large as the
size of the room makes advisable, but it
will in all cases give triangular closet,
which will not only be of service, but
which will add to the effect of the room
Hooks can be hung within the space, and a
shelf can fill the upper part of it.--Decora-

AN experiment in agricultural CO.
operation has been on trial for the past
ten years in Brittany. The Comte de
Lariboisiere. proprietor Of eighty
farms, covering some 1000 acres, pro-
posed to his tenants at the time of the
severe agricultural depression in 1880.
an arrangement by which they were
to continue to work the iarms under
his direction, he to assume all f1nan-
cial responsibility, to guarantee them
their living, and to give them the half
Of all profits derived from their labor.
He secured competent manager, who
proceeded to make speciality Of dairy
farming, steadily improving the breed
of cows, aud perfecting the processes
of manufacture of butter and cheese,
with the result of soon securing q
reputation for superior products and
the highest price in the market. Both
owner and farmers have highly pros
pered under the new plan. From the
accounts which have been published
in the case of each farm, 1t appears
that the returns have been greatly in
creased. Thus one farm that used to
rent for $454-a sum which the tenant
was unable to realize from the years
farming operations-yielded Sl,174 in
1Ss6.s7 and 81 ,710 in 1sS99O. In the
last instance the farmer received,
besides his living. .s643, and the owner,
$1,02S, while the balance went to hired
laborers as their share of the profits.
Similar results were attained upon all
the sixteen farms, which are now fully
worked on the cooperative plan. The
holders Of other farms are coming in
to the arrangement as fast as their
leases expire, as all are convinced that
the new method is the best for all con-
cerned.

THE Cleveland Plain Dealer says
Mr.. Perrin, who Is engaged in can
ming salmon on the Chilkat river in
Alaska, last year put up near
ly250, 1000 cans of salmon and sent the
entire product to Europe, because by
SO doing he received a drawback on
the tin of which the cans we're made,
whereas If he had sold the salmon in
this country he would have to lose the
duty on the tin or add 1t to the cost of
the salmon, But for the duty on the
tin and the drawback Of nearly the
entire amount when 1t is shipped out
of the country, the American consum-
er would have had chance to buy
the Chilkat salmon at lower prices.

answer: 1t is the United States. 1t Is
bounded by hugging and kissing on
one side, and cradles and babies on the
other. It's chief productions are popu-
lation, broom-sticks and staying out
