Geographical joke.

The Japanese are very polite peo-
pie, but they sometimes like to play a
joke, in a roundabout, oriental way,
upon the men of the west. In the days
of the second empire Baron Gros was
sent to Japan to demand the opening
of certain ports to French commerce.
Among the rest he named to the
Japanese ministers certain city.
The Japanese functionaries smiled so
broadly when he preferred the request
that the French ambassador asked them
to tell him what gave them SO much
amusement; but instead of answering,
the Japanese ministers said:
"We will open the port in question,
my lord, if France, in her turn, will
open certain port to u.s."
What port is that?" asked the
Frenchman.
'The port of Liverpool"
But, your excellencies," laughing,
liverpool is not French port, but an
English one"
"Yes?" answered the japanese
And the port you named to us is not
in Japan, but in Corea!
The French ambassador was COM
PEELED to admit that the joke was upon
him.-Youth's Companion.

Cleyerly COuntered.

An American and an Englishman
were one day sitting on the balcony of
the Anglo-American club in Brussels,
passing the rather slow hours in a

English flag. After brief lull in the

The American was serious "Well,

The Cause of Biliousness.

The cause of biliousness is dilated
stomach. Food decomposes in the
stomach, and that gives rise to the con-
dition known as biliousness. 1t is a
state of poisoning in the stomach, pro-
duced by the action of germs upon the
food remaining there. When those
germs grow up through the esophagus
they produce the bad coating on the
tongue. Biliousness always means bad
diet. If a man is bilious he ought to
be ashamed of himself, for it means
that he has abused his stomach. A
dilated stomach is very common among
chronic dyspeptics. 1t is stretching
of the stomach in consequence of over.
loading it; it is sometimes due to a
breaking down of the stomach.

SENATOR NJ. c. BUTLER.
One of the Most Popular SoutherDers in

One of the Most Popular SoutherDers in
the American Congress.
The senior senator from South Caro-
lima, Matthew Calbraithe Butler, has
attracted considerable attention lately
by his speeches and comments on the
silver bill. He was born near Green
vile, S. c., March s, 1886, received a
classical education at the academy at
Edgefeld, and entered the South Caro-
lima college in 1854; left this institu-
ton before graduating, and studied
law at Stonelands, the residence of his
uncle, Hon. A. P. Butler, near Edge
field Court House. He was admitted
to the bar in December, 1857; was
elected to the legislature of South
Carolina in 1860; entered the confed-
crate service as captain of cavalry in
the Hampton Legion in June, 1861,
and became a major general through
the regular grades. He lost his right
leg at the battle of Brandy Station on
June 9, 1868. In 1866 he was elected
to the legislature of South Carolina.
In 1870 he was candidate for lieuten-
ant governor of South Carolina and in
the same year received the democratic
vote of the South Carolina legislature
for United States senator. In the SEN
ate he succeeded Thomas J. Robertson,
republican, taking his seat December
2, 1877. He was reelected in 1882 and
again in 1889. His present term of
service will expire March 3, 1895. Sen
ator Butler is one of the strongest
southern democratic representatives in
the congress and enjoys the personal
friendship of all of his colleagues, ire
spective of party affiliations.

A CASE OF CONSCIENCE.

''Some of our lawmakers" said a
veteran lobbyist, who had had exper-

one occasion that it became neces-
sary to have a certain man in a certain
state legislature on our side in a little

hot.
No man can bride me, sir! No man
can bride me, he fairly yelled, and he
tore up and down in such violent
manner that discreetly pocketed my
thousand and left him. The next day
i don't know, of course, how it could
have happened-one or two newspapers
that didn't like my man published an
intimation that the lobbyists were
taking care of him. Then he was hot
ter than ever, and the next night l sent
lady lobbyist in my employ to see
him. She came back to me in an hour
without the thousand dollars and said
he was all right. Then saw him, and
the next day he had card in all the
papers to the effect that he had repealed
with scorn the advances of a lobbyist,
and that he had accepted bride from
no man. When the bill came up he
voted with us and no comment was
made because he had been on the fence
anyway and nobody, except the few,
knew how he would vote. All the same,
he took a roundabout way to avoid tell
ing straight lie, didn't hep" and the

childhood and age they grow faster in
summer than in winter. In one in
stance nail that required one hun
dred and thirtytwo days to renew in
winter renewed in summer in exactly
one hundred and sixteen days During
both seasons the patient upon whom
this experiment was made enjoyed
normal health.
The method of testing the growth
was in each instance the same. The
nail was pared close and slightly
notched at the uick. Both the right
and the left hand were studied, with
the result that he affirms that the
growth of finger nails is more rapid on
the right hand than on the left. AS
the person was right-handed it is pre-
sumed that the contrary is true of left
handed individuals.
One popularity of the growth of fin
ger nails in addition to those stated is
that the period of renewal differs pro-
portionately with the length of the
fingers. Thus it is more rapid in the
middle fingers than any others. In the
fingers on either side the middle finger
the period of renewal is about equal
and slower. 1t is even more slow in
the little finger, and slowest of all in
the thumb.
Comparing the same fingers of the
different hands, the person who dis
covered these curious phases of growth
states that on an average the nails on
the left fingers of right-handed per-
son require eighty-two days longer to
renew than those of the left hand. In
one particular the growth of the nails
and hair and beard are governed by
the same law, that of growing more
rapidly in summer than in winter

In the Riviera Even Beasts of Burden

A peculiar phase of humanity is no

The good-hearted peasants of the

the pretty Tuscan girls wear, even to
being trimmed with rosettes of ribbon,
among which the two ears of the horse

Opals Are Popular Once More.

The prejudice against opals appears
to be disappearing. Anyhow they are
popular. There are several varieties
of opal and therefore several degrees
of merit. The precious, or noble, or
oriental opal is the supreme. This has
all the colors, and when these colors
are broken into spangles it is then
called the harlequin opal. Then comes
the fire opal or girasol, with hyacinth
red and yellow refection-the former
comes from Hungary, the latter from
Mexico. The common, or semiopals,
are nonopalescent. The hydrophane,
or oculus mundi, is nontransparent,
but becomes so by immersion in water
or any transparent fluid. The cacha-
long is nearly opaque and of blush
white color. The hyalite is colorless,
pellucid and white. The opal jasper
or wood opal is the petrifaction of
wood, opalescent, but without the col
oring which makes the ''noble" gem so
precious.
By the tenth census %, O1O, 900 inhabi-
tants of the United States are sup
ported by agriculture, 100000 by
manufactures and 100000 by com
merce.
IT has been computed that about &c.
100000 babies are born into the world
each year. The rate of production is
therefore about 70 per minute, or more
than ore for every tick of the clock.

Reason for the disastrous defeat inflicted

clads Is found in that antipathy to for

ships of war went into commission until
the commencement of the present fighting
the engineering force was composed al
most exclusively of experienced Europeans
When war was declared, the English
Scotch and German engineers, with the few

unanimously at the conclusion that service
under Chinese line officers-irksome in time

was the expressed intention of these ad-

In an open fight, in which Mr.. Brice could
not have been less than severely injured
As 1t was, he was much Inundated. He
was compelled to listen to a speech in
which, without being actually named, his
portrait was outlined with remarkable and
caustic accuracy, and later he saw the con-
vention adopt a resolution favoring the
election OF United States Senators by a d.
rect vote Of the people-a direct slap in the

waste on Senator Brice; even in a conven-
ton the machinery of which he controlled
