The macchabee men. or fishers of dead
bodies, who ply their dolefu trade on
the Seine, between the Auteuil Viaduct
and the Billancourt Bridge, threaten to
go on strike owing to the slowness with
which their money premiums are paid.
Pere Joseph, the senior member Of the
profession Of ecumers, or scavengers on
the Seine, has been fishing for maccha-
bees for the past twenty-five years, but
he is now idle with his companions, as
he has not been paid for the last batch of
corpses sent to the morgue. Joseph, by
the way, sent forty-two macchabees to the
city dead house last year. and was paid
three dollars each for them, his total
gains for the twelve months being little
over $l25. This year the trade again
seemed to be improving; the morgue was
literally overlooking with bodies taken
out Of the river Of late, and in one day
Pere joseph made $12. That money.

A Lazy Race.


A lazier man than the average Burman
it would be extremely hard to find
When it is absolutely necessary for him
to work, he generally hits upon some
method which will save him a lot of ex-
ertion. If he wishes to cultivate piece
of ground, he sets fire to the brush
wood as a cheap, easy and etficacious
method of preparing the soil.
For two or three years he cultivates
that piece of land, and. then sets fire to
another spot, allowing the Jungle to grow
in the old place, which will be ready for
returning when the other ground wants
rest.
Rice-growers dispense with ploughs,
turning loose instead number Of buffa-
loes, which cut up the saturated soil
with their hoofs. When Burman has
earned little money, he Immediately
proceeds to spend it all, for the Burmese
have no ambition to be rich, and never
hoard. Consequently there are no large
landowners, and, there being no aristo-
cracy, the people are as near being ON an
equality as possible. Poor people are
quite as rare as rich people, and the
only beggars to be met with are the
lepers, who sit on the steps of the
pagodas.

HE PUT GEN
h G Amusing Experiences
tcur Farmer.

sDon't talk of agriculture to q
was Daniel Webstcr's advice to =
"Discuss any other subject with HIM II
art, literature, political economy, finance l
but never farming; for if you once
launch forth on that he will find you at
fault in some particular and conclude
that ignorant in one thing you are ignor-
ant in all. /"
This advice was recalled by gentle
man Of this city recently upon hearing
of the experiences of an amateur farmer,
friend OF his, who, after long and
active career, in which he had achieved
fame and fortune, relinquished an ex-
tensive practice Of law for bucolic super
intendence over an estate not hundred
miles from New York.
Shortly after he assumed the manage
mcnt of his farm the lawyer received
visit from one of his ncighbors, shrewd
old farmer who had never been a hun
bred miles away from his home Various
matters were discussed, as together they
walked about the farmyard inspecting
the new windmill improved water
troughs, cattle sheds and other "new
tangled fixings."
Naturally the amateur betrayed his
gross ignorance to his more practical and
experienced companion. The latter was
something of a wit and ut last, in visiting
the poultry yard, ventured suggestion.
"This is all very fne," he said, as he
glanced about, ''but where do your
ducks and geese roost at night9"
81 never thought of that, replied the
amateur. sI'ye seen them 'squatting'
around at night and thought they liked
that. I'll have it attended to at once.
Low roosts | suppose would be the
best?"
The farmer thought they would.
"Place them about two feet from the
ground, he remarked, and then, smiling
in his sleeves, unhitched his old mare and
drove away home.
Not a moment was lost by the former
New Yorker. He erected his duck
roosts, and at niehtfall visited his poul-
try yard to observe how the fowls en-
joyed the innovation. To his chagrin
they appeared to ignore the roosting
place and were squatting as before on the
ground
poor things, I've neglected them too
long" thought the human amateur.
''They don't realize the CHANGE With
that he began to grab at ducks and
brakes and geese and gamblers and de-
post them one by one on the roost.
There was terrible commotion among
the fowls, which attracted all the farm
hands with shotguns to the poultry yard.
When they arrived there they saw
their employer, perspiring and red in
the face, trying to balance the web
footed creatures on the roost, from which
they fell with terrible ''quack, quacks,"
the moment his back was turned. It
was not long before the truth dawned
upon him that ducks and geese were in
tended by nature to squat" not to
roost.
He returned to his house deeply
ashamed of his ignorance and speedily
became the laughing stock of the country
round. The illustration of Websters
advice came in the form of an entire dis
regard thereafter of any opinions ex-
pressed by the man. In New York his
utterances had been regarded as words
of wisdom, upon no matter what subject
expressed, but in the country they were
greeted with sob, pshaw, he don't
know nothin. He puts geese to roost. !"
