CHAPERONED BACHELORS.
How Young Men Who Are Taken to Leap Year Parties Behave.

How Young Men Who Are Taken to Leap Year Parties Behave.
 Some of the leap year parties seem to have been carried on or off with eXcep- tional spirit, says the New York Times It has been Imaginable, for instance, the way in which the men have insisted upon being chaperoned, and young women have called in carriages to ac- company gay bachelors, who were care fully protected by their mothers, to the scene of festivities. One inveterate joker gave perhaps a hint to the belles of the sort of chapero2s that would be most acceptable when The came into the parlor to receive his fair escort, fol- lowed by an elderly aunt who is deaf as post and is besides almost blind. This same man was wrapped in a white opera cloak cut with an absurd resemblance to dress suit ulster; he carried bou- quet of flowers and wore a band of rib bon and bow on his hair. When he ap- peared from the dressing-room, after laying aside his ambiguous wrap, it was seen that the sleeves of his coat had been taken out and elbow sleeves of pink silk and lace substituted, which, met by long pink kid gloves, effectually ''brightened" his toilet and added to his nondescript appearance.
 At another leap-year party, held just before Lent began, the young women danced the cotillon with white silk crush hats under their arms. At the same affair young footman in cap and apron did duty in the mems dressing room, which was besides plentifully provided with powder and rouge boxes, hairpins, tray of bonbons, and az gressive bottles of cologne and extracts. When the ladies doffed their outside gear the actual maid wore with her regula- tion petticoats a livery jacket and vest and carried whislz broom as a sort of badge of office. The room was bereft of it's usual feminine fripperies, and in their place were suggestively set out tobacco, pipes and cigars, with de canters of cognac and a huge fancy bowl piled with cloves.

PAST. BELIEF.

Thought Queen Victoria Must Live in the
 Czar's Domains.
 always stayed at the house of one Starosta, a very old man, whose wife was still active and lively at seventy years of age, says Herbert Barry in the book on Russia. She used to interest herself vastly in the conversation that passed between me and her husband.
 This man, forester, was remarka- ble character. By intelligent industry and perseverance he had raised himself from the station of a common serf to the management of woods greater in extent than many German principal ity.
 He had given his son a liberal educa- tion, and was a man of inquiring dispO- sition, anxious to get information on all sorts of subjects. Our long discussions of things in general, and the worlds re- cent history in particular, were highly amusing, if a little perplexing, to the old lady who sat and listened to them
 One morning I was sitting before the stove, talking with the forester about the British constitution, and happened to mention our gracious queen. At that moment the old lady broke into the coversation.
 You will excuse me-" she said, ''that do not speak English. I hear you all ways talking about your Queen Victoria. Now, I want to know what does she do for our emperor, because, of course, she lives at St. Petersburg?"
 At St. Petersburg?" I said. ''No, she lives in her own country-my coun- try-England."
 What part of Russia is England?'
 England is not in Russia at all It is another country by itself.''
 But could not convince her of that. She had never heard of any other coun- try that was not Russia, and nothing would make her believe in it's existence. She could not get over it for long time, and continually repeated to her husband: ''Only fancy the barrin try ing to tell me there is another country beside RuSSiai''

THE SUMMER OUTING.
A Trip on the Great Lakes in One of tn,
 Big Freight Steamers.

Big Freight Steamers.
 The vacation season will soon be up on the Chicago multitude. When to spend it everybody hinks he knows; but how and where to spend it is an- other matter. It causes a great deal of hesitation. But to those who have tried it nothing seems finer than a trip OF the great lakes. It is strange that Chicago, with the long chain of lakes at it's very door, should be so poorly supplied with means of transportation. It may be said that there is no trans por6atiOn at all.
 No lake city of any consequence is so inadequately furnished with lake transit facilities for passengers. The lack of accommodations has occasioned lack of interest in travel of such kind. East bound tourists travel by train. A few Chicagoans who have ''the influence'' have in the past resorted to novel method of taking trip on the lakes Not only is the method novel. but the experience is also unusual.
 There are several lines of mammoth freight boats traversing the ''sisters of the sea-" These are fitted up with all modern appliances and have extra saloons for guests of the vessel pro- prietors. The favored few who have taken trips in these say there is noth- ing like it; that passenger boats are completely eclipsed. The boats are larger and consequently steadier; there is less formality, greater ease and com fort, more attention from the crew, far better food, and the added charm of a novel point of observation. True, the crowd of fellow-travelers is absent, but these are hardly missed. A reasonable solitude in the midst of mighty nature has refreshing effect, and here is per feet rest.
 To cut through the waters at the rate of twelve to seventeen miles an hour, to pass vessel after vessel on lakes cov- cred with fleets, to catch a glimpse of gray-green shore here and there, to pass town after town, is keener, more agreeable sensation than to skim over the ocean with it's weary expanse of water day after day.
 Each lake has it's individual charm and each coast it's own interesting characteristics. It is a pity that yes sells from Chicago do not carry passen- gers to every lake port of consequence.

 the English JOurneYman.

the English JOurneyman.
 The English journeyman has an unat- tractive life, says Reuben Gold Thwaites in an article on ''Village Life in Old England" in the New England Magazine. Starting out to his work, perhaps miles away, at six o'clock in the summer morning, with a heavy basket of tools and food on his shoul- der, he often works until eight absolute ly breakfastless; then half an hour is allowed him for his cheerless meal of cold tea and bread and fat bacon; at noon he has an hour or less for what dinner he has brought with him; and at five o'clock ends his days task, he sometimes taking light lunch in the middle of the afternoon. As with the farm laborer, rheumatism early seeks him for a victim, and at sixty he is quite apt to be a useless old man with ''a crick in his back" a burden to him. self and his relatives. Earning at his best and in the height of busy season not to exceed one dollar and twenty five cents a day, with long stretches of either sickness or no work, invariably a ldI SC ld11111y O11 111o Ao1lNAos HCooANAJ - drink habit, which makes every spare penny burn in his pocket, and the cost of provisions not on the whole below that prevalent in America for the same qualities of supplies, he neither accum- ulates savings nor apparently wishes to. Let him endeavor to rise above his fel- lows or furnish more comfortably his little cottage-which the landlords agent keeps so neatly without, but whose interior is apt to be cheerless enough-he would in many communi- ties be scoffed at and summed at the alehouse, as man too proud for that state of life unto which it hath pleased God to call him. Then, again, the union" will receive him when at last his working days are over, and he looks forward with complacency, or shall we say with sullen indifference, to ending his days as pauper. The picture is gloomy enough, but Merry England is filled with such, if you care to look for them

More fruit and ornamental trees are damaged from irrigation too late in the fall than from all other causes combined. Trees, like human beings, require their regu- lar seasons of rest. To irrigate them after the time of the year when cold weather should set in, is almost as bad as to put an axe to their roots. Even if the trees escape being killed, the frost is cer- tain to injure the tender growth which the late application of water produces. This destruction of the new shoots, which is more com monly noticed on the fig trees than any other in this locality, can be wholly avoided in nine years out of ten by not irrigating one full month prior to the coming of cold weather.-Gazette.

This offer is made in good faith by the proprietors, and there is no reasonable excuse for any one to suffer longer. An ordinary case will be cured by one bottle, and it is poor economy to suffer when re- lief can be secured so certainly. The price of a bottle is $5, and that is the cost of cure.

A FUNNY MISTAKE.
Why the Train Men Enjoyed a Tomale
 Supper.

Why the Train Men Enjoyed TOmale
 Supper.
 The sending of a telegram is, appar- ently, a very simple matter, but oc- casionally an evil spirit gets into the wires, and perverts the original message into a shape which causes wrath to the sender and much mirth to the locker on, says the San Francisco News Let ter. A case in point occurred few days ago. The telegraph operator of an engineering and construction party, at work near Hartford, telegraphed to a friend of his in that town to send him a couple of lamp shades, and, being on intimate terms with the family, added his best regards to ''Mollie," the friends wife In the cipher used on the line, ''my best regards is indicated by the words ''seventy-three." The message when sent read: ''Send me two lamp shades by evening train, and seventy three to Mollie." When the dispatch was received it read: ''Send me two lamp shades by evening train, and Seventy-three tomales." The receiver read and re-read the message, almost doubting the evidence of his own eyes, but ''seventy-three tomales' was there plain enough, and the thing was to get the required number. The resources of Hanford in the tomale line were taxed to their utmost, and that evening the brakeman carried two large boxes to the telegraph car, dropped them on the floor, and handed the astOnished operator note: "Dear X: What the - do you want with seventy-three tomales? I send you forty-fve, all I could get. Have had two women mak- ing them all day. Will send the rest to-morrow. Bill is seven dollars" The air was blue about the car for awhile, but the trainmen had tomale supper. Now the operator has his messages re- peated if he thinks there's the slightest chance of their being misconstrued
