Eugenie'S Limited Education,

The Empress Eugene, though
naturally intelligent, was in some
respects extremely ignorant. Educat-
ed as were the high born young Spanish
girls of her generation-thatis to say,
not educated at all-she was forced
all through her palmy days to struggle
against this great disadvantage. She
never could learn the art OF spelling,
and all her private notes and letters
are thickly peppered with faults OF Or
biography. She assembled the throne
at the age Of twenty six-a period in
life rather late for the commencement
of ones education. But to her credit
be it said, she did her best, by inces-
SAINT reading, to supplement the defects
in her early mental training She
spoke English to perfection, and the
Emperor and she were wont to con-
verse in that language when they did
not want their attendants to know
what they were talking about. She
was an elegant and fearless horsewo-
man, and her skill in equitation was
among the first ofher accomplishments
chat attracted the notice OF Napoleon
ILL.,, himself an accomplished ride~.
But her principal talent was for art,
and she drew in crayon exceedingly
well.-Philadelphia Telegraph.

Pretty Pistols for Women.
Women who shoot like finely decorat,

handled revolver, which was supposed
to be dedicated to the fair se1, Is now
made in cheap styles and has accord
ingly, lost prestige. Alongside the fans
at leading New York jewelers. are
some revolvers, which show to what
extent people will carry their love for
ornamentaton. One, 38-caliber re-
volver, Of the latest pattern, as far
as improvements 60, has the handle
so heightened that it looks like an old
fashioned dueling pistol. This handle
is Of silver, beautifully carved and
chased and set with dozens Of turQueis-
es In the barrel joint and the butt
are large pieces Of polished lapis Ia
zuli. The six-ineh barrel is of etched
steel. Another larger revolver, or Rus
sian model, has sterling silver handle
formed Of the coils of a serpent. An
other handle is Of carved ivory incrust-
Cd with silver. and still another of sill
yer inlaid with mother Of pearl. A fash
l0nably dressed woman was locking
ever these weapons when a Sun report
er came up. She was evidently going
to buy one and, as it turned out, for
herself. Her concession to the tradi-
lions OF the husband being the stronger

three up to the house," she sail. my

Rare Old Wines,

Two wine experts, discuss

Gently and the private stock
of Madeira used by Herman Olerichs
in his famous terrapin, had this to
say about the sherries and Madeiras
OF New York. The first said: II have
100000 worth of wines and liquors in
my cellar, and while I am not boast
full Of it l believe it to be fact that
few, If any, other experts in this city
have now a cellar that represents
more solid wealth as we'll as solid
worth. I have Madeiras that cost
$500 a bottle and of which know the
history for $50 years. I have any
number Of dozen OF sherries which
cost me from $50 to $50 quart, and
while you and I can tell at a glance
and by sniff of their boquet the re-
spective ages of the 5000 and $50
wines, you would be surprised to
know how many men OF excellent
taste and Judgment in such things de-
cldedly prefer the 500 to the 5000
bottles. [ do not know why it is, but
the older man gets, the drier helikes
his wines and the less flavor there
seems to be in his favorite brands,
and as for this 'aniseseed' taste in
Madeira, [ don't believe there are two
dozen men in New York who really
like it or know why they like it,

1t was almost by accident that I at
length came upon Hammond. He
was STOPPING and peering here and
there about small spot of common
grass with holes in the ground and g.
thlcket OF bramble and clematis at
one side. I did not notice it at first;
put therewas a wool of passion-fowers

was superb specimen with a dazzling
corolla.

exclamation of "Did I not say sop

the shoulder was beautifully marked,
much as Hammond had described his
plant, but time for no more. The
poor fellow had bent down, and made
a snatch at the reptile; at the same in
slant the snake had darted at him,
and bitten him over the eye And
when had rushed to the place the
snake had gone, and Hammond was
holding both hands to his face and
looking about him with an awfully
dazed expression The shock had
brought HIM wholly to his right mind?
On our way back he commented on
his folly as if it had been the action of
some one else. But the pain of the
venom in him had already begun to
tell. Between us we had done what
we could as precautionary measures,
though this was little enough.
He was prepared for what followed
so much prepared that he made me
write his will for him the moment we
reentered the hut did it on piece
OF common tissue paper, the only
available material. The swelling all
the time was getting worse and worse;
nor was his agony in the least abated
by the fat and oil which Wan Tan
rubbed upon it.
The poor fellow died at IL o'clock,
after suffering fearfully. Almost his
last words were these, with an at
tempt at a smile that nearly set me
crying; "What an ass l was, to be
sure, old fellow!'
Before I left the place. and when we
had buried him, I made my way again
to the spot where IA had met his
doom, and pulled down the spray
of the passion flower which had
dropped over him when he was bitten.
This flower, dried, and under glass, is
one of various articles that serve as
mementoes of incidents in my career

ways SO tragical as this.

Value Of Geese,

If geese are allowed to run every
where as used to be the general prac-
tice, says an exchange, they speedily
become a nuisance and destroy more
than they are worth. But they pay for
care and feeding as we'll as any other
farm stock. They may be plucked
every six weeks through the season,
beginning with the first warm weather
in spring, when a portion of the feath-
ers become loose and fall out them
selves. One-third of q pound of feath-
ers may be taken from a full grown
goose at each picking, and if well fed
afterwards no injury results from
picking one each six weeks until cold
weather puts a stop to this work.
Watch for the time when the feathers
appear to come easily. They are
then said to be GRIPPE" If this time
goes by it will be hard to make sat
isfactory picking through the year.
Besides the crop of feathers, each fe-
male goose should hatch a dozen or
more young which will pay their keep
by their growth Of feathers, and be a
cash article in the poultry market
during the holiday season. A flock of
geese gives in feathers, eggs, and in
crease q greater proportionate profit
than most kinds Of farm stock.

Barnura'S Kindness Of Heart.

Once in New Haven a little boy

Mr.. Barnum had the parade pass the

the front yard for the little fellows

Renting q Public Garden.

A new London idea is to give private
garden parties in the lovely botanical
gardens, Regents Park. The countess
Of Galloway began it, and her enter
tainment was exceedingly successful.
Perhaps something Of the kind might
be done at home TO rent the priv
leges of a botanical or geological gar
den for an afternoon at a round price
would add materially to it's funds.

A CURIOUS PEOPLE.
Little In Attire to Distinguish An
nam Men From Women.

nam Men From Women.
At AMMAN, an empire occupying the
eastern portion of the Indo- Chinese
peninsula, with a population OF 49,
100000 men and women wear their
hair in the same way and dress almost
alike. Like the man, the woman
wears the turban, long tunic, wide,
loose trousers, and bright sash, the
ends failing below the knees. The
physiognomy is almost the same, as
the men are beardless, and have their
hair done up like women.
The only clue to distinguish them is
the earrings and fnger-rings worn by
women only. The earrings are like
double shirt-studs, and among the
lower order are of colored glass.
The wives and daughters of manda-
rims alone are allowed to wear gold
!ewelry. The rings are OF spiral wire,
hitting tight and standing out to some
height. Some women of the upper
class wear also necklaces of strings OF
gold or silver beads.
The hat of the woman is monument
tai. 1t is like large barrel cover,
Ihree-quarters of a yard in diameter.
Six or seven silk cords as thick as a
quill are fastened on each side, and
when worn fall down below the waist
When the ends are fastened to the
hat on each side in huge black or
brown silk tassel. Some of these hats
are artistically made OF carefully Sc
lected palm leaves and lined with neat
ly-plaited flag leaves. These are ex-
Pensive, especially when they have
chlselled silver clasps at the tassels.
Many women fasten a little round
mirror in the hat, before which they
arrange their turban when they go to
town. The hat is the article most
priced by thestylish ladies, and often
costs ten and fifteen dollars.

IT'S my mothers step hear;
Quick, oh quickly give to me-
Haste, it is her step hear
Give the kiss gave to thee,
She doth fret me night and day;
Kisses, prithee," she doth say,
"Never maid should give away;
Never maid her love betray!',

Give the kiss gave to thee.
"Have you kissed MANI" she'll say,
And I'll answer nay and nay;

Value Of Horse Hire.

Few farmers who feed their stock
home grown products, hay or grain,
appreciate the cost Of keeping a horse
through the year. The city liveryman
does and reckoning on days when
horses must be idle, he charges what
seems a very high price when in use.
1t needs a constant run of custom to
keep up a good livery, even at these
high prices for horse hire, as there are
always liabilities to accidents, and al
lowance must be made for these. A
careful teamster informed us that his
team OF horses, worth at least 5000,
cost for keeping, shoeing interest, de-
probation in value and insurance, an
average of 81 for each working day in
the year. And he had to contend in
this climate with some days when for
man or team to work out of doors
cost more than he could afford. The
more we study this question the less
excessive the estimate seems. The
teamster gave nearly an hour of each
day in simply caring for his team and
this carefully done, as he did it, was
worth pay whether he charged for it
or not.-Boston Cultivator.
