Choosing a Site for a House.

There are no definite rules that will al
ways apply to the selection of a site for a
house. Usually it should not be placed ex-
actly in the middle of place or close to
the front, and it should associate itself in
some way with some considerable planta-
tion of trees that may already exist.
| am speaking Of considerations that
must be met in a systematic way, and
more or less in accordance with the best
practice of the art of landscape gardening.
But avoid being too oconventionally artistic.
Use common sense and first of all make
your grounds comfortable and convenient:
then do what you can for the aesthetic.
The latter may. in your opinion, be of the
most Importance, but the former be sure,
will sooner or later revenge itself on YOU
for any undue neglect.
am speaking now of all country places,
meaning thereby lot that may be only 25
feet by 100 feet, or may be five or six acres.
In any case you are devising a picture
when you undertake to lay out your
grounds, even in the most simple fashion,;
and any arrangement that will develop
and present with the best effect the most
artistically valuable features should be
invariably chosen, though at first it may
seem odd, and not in accordance with your
conventional ideas of landscape gardening
art. Any evident attempt at mere oddity
is of course bad and destructive of the
harmony of the general arrangement, but
there may be an unusualness of treatment
that seems odd, though in reality effective
and harmonious, simply because it is un-
conventional. al.-Scribner's

A writer in a medical Journal, while de-
Tending the practice of cigarette smoking
in moderation, took the bold step of advo-
eating an extension of it to the other sex,
and advising that women should find a
refuge in it from the minor ills of life.
Tobacco smoking, he maintained, was one
of the best and most harmless sedatives
that we possess for harassed and agitated
nerves. and as women are more subject to
nervous disorganization than men, it was
obvious that they would find an even
greater use for such sedative than mem
bers of the sterner sex.
1t was the constant insistence of the
small worries of life, rather than it's greater
griefs and troubles, that upset the equa-
nimity of mankind, rendered them liable
to the insidious attacks of nervous com
plants, and sometimes made them the
victims of premature old age. Much mis-
cry was caused by the adoption among
womaukind Of sedatives that were by 40
means harmless, and much suffering might
be saved to them if tlrey were not debarred
by public opinion from making use OF a
sedatiye which is allowed to the other sex,
and which would be infinitely more sooth-
ing and etIicacious than those which they
are frequently driven to use
From logical point Of view the argu-
ment seems not only fair. but very strong

Terrible Situation Caused by the Epi.
demic in Brazil.
Rio JANEIRo, March 14-The Rio
News says: According to private ac-
counts from Santos the situation in that
city has become something indescrib-
able. The authorities are clearly in
competent to grapple with the epidemic,
and the assistance from private sources
is totally inadequate.
The stories about hospital treatment
in Santos are terrible. A man named
Beemer sent a boy to the Misericordis on
Friday afternoon with fever. On Satur.
day evening he went to see the boy. but
was unable to find any trace of him un-
til he went to the dead house, where he
found the poor lad, still alive and con-
scious. The boy died that night, but
the idea of putting him out among the
dead so long before death is enough to
make one wonder what kind of beings
these hospital attendants are.
Another story is to the effect that an
English merchant went to the cemetery
to attend the burial of an engineer,
whom he knew personally. On arriv-
ing at the cemetery he had the coffin
opened, and found that he was burying
stranger. The difficulties of getting
men to dig even the shallowest of graves
has already been referred to, and also
the digging up of the remains of former
burials. The whole situation is blot
ON civilization, and is an indelible dis
grace to the country.

The destruction of Calculus, as every
college man knows, is an important event
in his sophomore year. At Vassar how
ever, the Objectionable classic is neither
burned nor buried by the young woman
students. After the January examinations
of the sophomores, which finishes trigo-
nometry, it is optional whether mathe-
matics be further pursued, the teachers
urging while the girls usually object. A
jubilee always follows the ''trig' finish,
which is often play bearing humorously
on the mooted question. This year it took
the form of mock trial, in which Mr..
Victor Chormall, '94, was sued by Miss
Ella Meutsoff Trigenometre for breach of
promise. The judge and jury were clever
makeups and impersonators of the teach
ers, and the lawyers were bristling with
college hits and gibes at the poor fresh
men. 1t is needless to add the fair claim

New YORK, March 14.-Negotiations
looking to the union of the Tennessee
Coal, Iron and Railroad company with
the Debardeleben Coal and Iron com.
pany and the Sloss Iron and Steel com.
pany, which have been going on fol-
some time, have resulted in satisfac.
tory agreement being made between the
two irst-named concerns.
Ex-senator Thomas G. Platt, president
of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad
company, and Henry F. Debardeleben,
in making a general statement of the
result of the negotiations, said that there
would be no change in the organization
of the Tennessee Coal company except
increased representation in the board of
directors, and an increase in the amount
of capital stock.
The capital stock Of the new concern
will be ST. 900, 900 common stock, 81 ,000,-
600 of which remains in the treasury
and 81 1000, 900 preferred stock. The
capital of the Debardeleben compan
was $1,000. .000in stock and SO ,000, 900 in
bonds, that of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company was $5,000,000 in bonds
and 81, 900, 900 in preferred, and S., 9,000,-
900 in common stock.
The Tennessee Coal and Iron COM
pany now owns 2,082 acres of coal and
iron land, principally in Alabama, ten
blast furnaces and 1 $50 coke ovens. Its
daily output is about 1000 tons of pig
iron and $500 tons of coal.
The Debardeleben company owns 160,-
600 acres of coal and iron lands in the
Warrior and Cahaba basins of Alabama.
1t has seven blast furnaces and 1,040
coke ovens. Its daily output is 700 tons
of pig iron and 5000 tons of coal. The
Sloss company, which represents less
than sixth of the entire property, is
not represented in the deal.

AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS.
March Report of the Distribution Q
Wheat and Corn.

March Report of the Distributioa oI
Wheat and Corn.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE March
report of distribution of wheat and corn
by the statistician of the department of
agriculture makes the stock of wheat m
growers hands 170,O0O,0O0 bushels, Is
per cent. of the crop-63, 900, 900 of
spring wheat and 1Os,OOO,0O0 of winter
wheat, much Of the latter in states
which have practically no commercial
distribution, but entering into local con-
sumption for bread and seed. This is
the largest reserve ever reported, that of
the largest previous crop (of 1884 being
1863, 900, 900 bushels.
The exports from July to March 1
we've 1874 200, 900 bushels, the fall seed
81, 900, 900 bushels, the consumption an
parently 200, ,O00, 900 bushels, but a large
proportion is taken for consumption in
the fall and winter, and the actual con-
sumption Is prOpOrtionally greater than
in the spring and summer.
Inc assumed consumption from
March l, 1891, to March 1, 1892, is 300,-
100000 bushels for population of 64,-
100000, the exports 06,000,000 bushels,
the seed 56,0O0,000 bushels, distribu-
ton of $50, 100000 bushels. With Al
100000 visible and III ,000, 900 invisible
stocks, there are $4,000. 600 bushels not
directly accounted for previously, which
came In the unprecedented squeezing of
all sorts OF reserves, mainly from the
always uncounted stocks of -four be-
tween mill and mouth, and from small
uncounted stocks between the farmers
granery and the visible supply"
The average weight of wheat is 5S.5
pounds per measured bushel and which
is the estimated weight of the crop of
1887, and is 81 of a pound above the
average of eight previous years.
The estimated quantity of corn in
farmers hands is $50, 900. 900, or Al. 8 per
cent. of the crop. This is the largest
proportion ever reported, that of 1889
excepted, which was 45.9 per cent, or
$4,000, 900 bushels. The seven princi-
pal states have surplus of 546, 600, 900,
or 41.5 per cent. of their product,
against 667 ,000, 900 from the great crop
of 1899.
The proportion merchantable is the
largest ever reported-S9.5 per cent.
against S5.7 two years ago. The aver
age OF eight previous crops is so per
cent, and the lowest average so, for the
frosted crop of 1888. The present aver
age farm price of merchantable corn is
thirtv-nine and two-tenths cents per
bushel; of understandable, twenty-five
and seven-tenths.

A Good Deal of Legislation.

I have been watching the movements of
our lawmaking power in Texas for over
forty years, and it does seem as if there is
too much Legislation for the common good
of the people. However, do not wish to
be understood as being too self presuming
or dictatorial, because it seems that in the
wisdom of our legislators they could have
arranged many laws that would have
tended more to the general good than what
is.-San Angelo TEX Enterprise

EAST LIVERPOOL, O., March H.
Simeon Sheckler, of Salineville, has
filed with an attorney a peculiar claim
for pension. 1t seems that Simeon
was drafted in 1868, but, like many
others, he sent a substitute, paying him
$500. The substitute was killed, and
now his widow gets $t2 per month
pension. Now Sheclllar is of the opin-
ion that lis $500 purchased the sub
stitute out and out and gave the right
to q pension in return for the $500.
Hence he has fled with q Salineville at
torney claim that he be at least given
half Of the $l2 per month which his
substitutes widow now receives.
