Garden Parties.

A garden party with new and orig.
inal features might be very enjoya-
BILE. A celebrated French woman
who gives such patty every year de-
lights her friends each time by some
unexpected feature. At one fete the
guests were asked to appear in
peasant dress, and were received by
their hostess in costume of a country
bourgeois of an earlier century. Great
farm wagons decked with flowers and
branches met those who came down
from Paris, great pitchers of cider
and other rural refreshment were Of
fered, and the guests entered with
much spirit into rural sports and
dances on the lawn. AS much of
novelty as this many an American
hostess can provide. Indian Co.'S
TUNES or the dress of our Dutch and
English and French great-grand-
mothers could be copied, and earlier
sports and frolicsome dances revived
for the occasion. For the inner man,
pitchers OF sweet cream, butter-mllk,
cottage cheese in little pats, and
other appropri ate and delicious things
could be provided. One might not
be able to show IA ruined abbey H.

He Would Be Responsible.

A minister of prominent New
York church, who was about to leave
home for few days, WAS bidding
good-by to his family. When he came
to Bobby he took the little fellow in
his arms and said: "Well, young
man, l want you to be good boy,
and be sure to take good care OF
mamma" Bobby promised, and the
father departed, leaving him with a
very large and full appreciation of
his new and weighty responsibility.
When night came and he was called
to say his prayers the young guardian
expressed himself as follows: "Oh,
Lord, please protect papa, and brother
Dick, and sister Alice, and Aunt
Mary, and all the little Jones boys,
and Bobby. But you needn't trouble
about mamma, for Pm going to look
after her myself" .Boston Budget.

A Sailors Superstition.

"Reading the Legends and Super
stitions, by W. SevorR. recalled to
my mind" says writer In country
contemporary, "a superstition still
held by most middle aged sailors-I
mean their antipathy to having q
rabbit on board during q voyage. I
remember once having the whole
crew about my ears because had got
bunny on board. We were on our
passage from Sulina to Antwerp, and
we called at Malta for Goals. Having
an hour or so to spare, I went on
shore, and during my walk ! bought
a large rabbit tor one Of my boys.
l took it on board. and gave 1T to one
of the firemen to take care OF, and he
made hutch for it in one of the
empty bunkers
Now none OF the sailors knew
about it then, for you must know
there is not much love lost between
the sailors and tiremen on steamer.
"Hitherto however we had had ex-
cept!onally fine weather. But an
hour or so after leaving Malta it came
on to blow very heavily, and strong
sea got up for few days. noticed
the men looking askance at me very
much. AT last it came out; the sail
ors had found out that there was a
rabbit on board, and that it belonged
to me.
~ argued with them, but to no
avail. l pointed out another steamer.
that was making worse weather than
we were ] asked them if they could
tell me for certain that she had a
rabbit on board.
THAT was not it, they said. One
of them had been wrecked three
times, another twice; one had been
run into and ost everything; and in
these cases there had always been a
rabbit on board the vessel.
81 referred them to the steward
who was passing. Now the steward
was bit of an oracle amongst them.
l explained the case to him. Tommy
for that was his name-tOok it very
seriously, weighed it very carefully
and thoughtfully in his mind for a
few moments, then looked at me with
one eye, and at the men with the
other, and asked, Is it white one?'
II could not help laughing; but
was told instanter that it was no
laughing matter;' it was something .
serious l told him that it was a
gray rabbit.
"'Well, he said, it is not so bad;'
but it is bad enough
sat last gave in. 1 handed poor
bunny to one of the flremen to kill
and make pie Of. He killed it after
eight bells at night and, when l
turned out in the morning, it was as
fine weather as one could wish for;
and a sort of expression were on the
tars' countenances which said plainly
to me, Didn't tell you it was the

Health of WOrkmen at, High Sum-
mItS.

Some noticeable facts are furnished
by the experience of the workmen
engaged in constructing the new Gen.
trail Railway over the mountains in
Peru. The line starts at Lima, in
altitude twelve degrees, and the sum-
nit tunnel of this line at Galeria is
at the height of Is, GAS feet It an
pears that the workmen, up to the
height of 800 to 1000 feet. do about
the same relative quantity Of work
as at the sea level, provided they
have been Injured to the height or
brought up in the country; at $4,000
feet the amount OF work deteriorates.
and at $4,000 to 5000 feet a full
third had to be deducted from the
amount that the same men could per-
form at sea level. Owing to the abb
sence of malaria the percentage of
eificient labor at the greatest eleva-
tion has been a very high one. Men
coming from the coast were not found
capable Of doing efficient work for
about two weeks on an average when
taken to high elevations, the Ca.
pacity gradually increasing and reach
ing its maximum in a few weeks or
months, according to the constitution
OF the individual. The majority of
the laborers being Cholos, or Indians
born in the Sierra, were found in
capable of doing effective work on
the coasts or in the warmer attitudes
without long course of acclimatiza-
tlOn. Sudden changes, too. from the
Sierra to attitudes of from 1000 to
1900 feet have resulted in sickness
and fever.

was the eyolutions of a ladies' fire

among whom some honorable misses

and ladder and blanket practice. OF

white blouses, and white sailor hats
