why the stores for Sale.
A man profound and seeming wise.
Who made name
And business fame
With printers ink
That made folks think,
Went hereto: why advertise,
And day by day
just throw away
The hard-earned rocks!
My name now talks;
My growing trade, my stores vast Size,
Will draw the crowd
And talk more loud
Than columns wasted every day
On ads I'm sure no longer pay" 1

The saving made the old man laugh;
But day by day

But still he wouldn't advertise,
And "Store for Sale" caused no surprise.

PEAT AS FUEL.

In Friesland and other parts of Rol-
land the black turf is made into fuel
for brick kilns, litter for stables, and
mouIds for mixing the sewage. Some
of it is exported to Bremen, Brunswick
and Belgium, and it is stated that
100000 tons of the fuel, worth f13S 900,
are annually consumed throughout the
Netherlands. The Dutch canals facili-
tate the transport Of the peat, and, as
the subsoil Of the moors is always cul-
tivated after the peat is lifted, the
barges that take away the peat bring
back manure for the ground. AT Gron-
-fngen, for instance, all the sewage of
the city is applied to the reclamation
Of the surrounding turf moors.
In Denmark, where there is no great
supply of peat, it is chiefly used by the
peasants as fuel, or as bedding in the
dairy farms. In Sweden, on the con-
trary, there are boys extending for
hundreds of square miles, and of late
years over 100000 acres of the moor
land have been brought under the
plo1g. The peat is prepared as fuel,
and largely consumed in making iron,
glass or brick, either alone or mixed
with coal and fir cones. In southern
Sweden there are factories solely en-
gagged in manufacturing peat fuel for
sale, as its use is steadily increasing,
and some 10000 tons year are en-
ployed in metalIurgical operations.
In southern and central Sweden
there are some twenty factories for
preparing peat litter and mold, each
factory turning out from IL, 600 TO 10000
bales a year, fetching about %. apiece.
The mould is used for gardening in
CIR FRO
or furniture and surgical bandages are
made from the white moss of the
moors. In France the peat is moulded
into 'fbriquettes'' with tar and resin,
teased into litter, or woven into fab
RIGS, which are used in the army, It's
barracks and hospitals as blankets,
mattresses and saddle cloths, or for
stufing cofferdams and certain parts of

THROUGH THE INDIAN FOREST.

Still nights bring out the brilliant
frefiies in sWarms, but the radiance is
such as that of sparkling gems, and
gives no guidance to the wayfarer So
that, unless there is a bright moon, no
MAJ ca can be made in the forest. Even
then it is dangerous, for snakes are
numerous; and the trlbesmen, when
suSpecting the approach of an enemy,
protect such paths as there are with
sharp bamboo stakes, concealed in the
grass, and capable of penetrating the
foot Then fbriars and roots often lie
across the way and cause the traveller
frequently to trip. So that the best
thing to do when overtaken by night
fall is to make q rude shelter Of
branches, rooted with plantain leaves,
with a floor of dry elephant grass or
PUSHES, put out the fire as soon as
cooking is done, take off your damp
clothes, roll yourself in your blanket,
tuck your revolver beneath such pill
low as you have, and go to sleep.

of the leaves as they are gently stirred
by the night breeze, and combine to lull

CATALAN AND GOETHE,

One of the best stories told Of Cata-
lani is associated with an occasion
when at Weimar she was placed next
to Goethe at a fashionable dinner
party. Catalanf knew nothing Of
Goethe, but being struck by the fine
appearance of the poet, she asked the
gentleman on the other side what was
his name. THE celebrated Goethe
Madam was the reply. "Ah, yes. Pray
on what instrument does he play ?"
was the rejoinder. He is not a per
former, Madam; he is the renowned
author Of 'Werter'" ooh, yes, yes,
remember" said Catalani. and. turn
ing to the venerable poet, she ad-
dressed hin-"Ah, sir, what an ad-
mirer I am of 'Werter!" 4 low bow
followed in acknowledgment.
Il never" continued the lively lady
II never read anything half SO laugh
able in all my life. What a capital
farce it is, sirr' Madam" said the
poet, looking serious. ''the Sorrows of
Werter farce?" 'Oh, yes; never was
anything so exquisitely ridiculous" re-
Joined Catalani, still laughing heartily.
1t turned out that the lady had been
talking all the while of the parody of
'Werter," which had been performed
at one of the minor theatres of Paris.
But fancy the modification Of the
poet!
Catalan, like most prima dome, had
a great weakness for showing off her
jewelry. You see dis brooch?" She
would say. DE Emperor Of Austria
gave me dis. You see desc earrings?
De Emperor OF Russia gave me desc.
You see dis ring? De Emperor Ma
poleon gave me dis" and so on. Bra
ham, the eminent tenor, in imitation
of this would say, pointing to his UNI
brella, You see dis? De Emperor of
China gave me dis. Then, pointing
to his teeth, de Emperor Of tuscany
gave me dese."-The Cornhill Maya

New London, Conn, Jan. 26.-The ocean
tug Sea King, of Philadelphia, New York
TO Providence, with a tow of five coal
laden barges, put into this port late this
morning, and reported the loss of her
entire tow and the consequent deaths of
thirteen persons, including three women
and two children. The drowned are:
From the barge Crocus, Captain Frank
Hoffman, his wife and daughter, and a
deck hand named Herman, all of South

from the east and soon blew up a strong
southeast gale. The blow was accom-.
panied by binding snow gusts, and at !
O'Clock this morning, the tow began
pulling and hauling IN a, way that indi-
Gated trouble. An hands had gathered
aft in order to do something to avert the
threatened catastrophe, but when the
three stern barges broke away and be-
gan to founder, we watched them for
about half an hour all the time strug-
Cling. to save the tug and the two re-
manning barges from destruction. Then
a
o'clock the two remaining barges foun-
dered and the hawser from them to the
tug had to be cut. At great risk the. tug
was put about and after repeated efforts
lines were got, to men who, through the
binding snow could be discerned on the
barge, Nulty, which still foated. They
jumped overheard and were pulled
aboard the Sea King .fearfully exhausted.

others, and it was necessary to run for

WIRE FENCES ANp FOX HUNTERS.

In the great grazing grounds Of the
Ehires, farmers long ago discovered that
wire was an excellent substitute for
oak railing in their OK fences. Why they
should ever have deemed il necessary TO

cshorn fortificat tons, IS q matter on which

THE SULTAN AND EDUCATION.

He has done more for the education OF
his people than all the Sultans who have
gone before g1inI. It Is true that he does
not tavor Christian schools, and has
their Influences. Perhaps ne feels as one
or his ministers did, some years ago,
when The replied TO q protest against the
closing Of Christian school, that the
(yf1rIstfans were already far ahead OF
tsi1e AIohanImedans, and must wait until

throughout the empire, and all real es-
tate is taxed to support them.
This work was undertaken in1rned1-
ately after the last war, and apparently
the Sultan was led TO realize the import
ance of 1t, from what he had learned of
the influence of education upon the
Bulgarians. But whatever may have
first turned his attention to this subject,
his interest in it has steadily increased,
and the work has been pushed on with
unffagging zeal. He was undaunted by
the fact sthat he had neither teachers
nor text books.
Buildings We're erected, students were
collected, teachers were appointed, and
the schools opened. Probably such
schools have never been seen before, but
i'm the reign of universal ignorance, there
was no one to rddicule them. It was a
beginning, and great progress has been
made since, in supplying text books,
and inproving the teachers. Most of the
schools are of a very inferior order, but
their influence is already felt in the
country. Whether their influence will
be altogether in favor of such a govern
ment as that of Abdul Hannid remains to
be seen.-The Contemporary Review.

Brooklyn, Jan. 26.-Judge Gaynor has
issued an alternate writ in the appli
cation of Joseph Loader, for writ of
mandanus to compel the Brooklyn
Height Railroad company to run the
cars on its lines for the accommodation
of the travelling public.
In his decision today, Justice Gaynor
re-asserted the principle he mad enunci-
ated in his earlier decision in this case.
He declared the company pleas that
it is by violence prevented from per-
forming the functions for which it was
created, is not true.
81 refuse" says the justice, "to find
that either the judicial or the executive
branch Of the government has failed
in affording protection to this corpora
ton.
''This corporation" the court con-
tinues, ''has the right to get labor as
cheap.y as it can, but it may not,
without a violation of law, stop the
running of its cars to try to beat down
the price or legal considerations of
labor. 1t was and is its duty to- run
its cars at the best terms it can make
for the day, being at full liberty to
supercede it's employees gradually from
day to day or all at once if it has men
enough at large or for better terms.
Public and Private Interests.
'Its chief duty is to run its cars. and
all considerations of private gain to its
stockholders must yield to that
There being disputes in the cases
as to some of the facts, the law makes
| it my duty to allow an alternative
instead of a peremptory writ, but
though the command of the people be
less abrupt or peremptory in that form
Of a writ, it nevertheless is the peoples
command. I also prefer to issue the all
tentative writ, as that is the moderate
course and should prove sufficient.
Let, therefore, an alternative writ
of mandamus in the name Of the people
OF the state Of New York issue, com
handing this corporation to resume Uhe
operation of its roads and the accom-
mediation Of the public as fully and
completely in all respects as it was do
ing prior and up to Jan. IA, 1885,"
The news Of Judge Gaynors decision
was received with mixed feelings at
the strikers headquarters at Mugges'
nail. Master Workman Connolly said
TO reporter of the Associated Press
regarding the decision:
1T might just as well have bean
twenty years as twenty days Still in
certain measure, it is in our favor.
The roads must carry on their con-
tracts and fulfill their obligations to
the public and in order to do so they
must have the men, and these they
have not got.
Eve will carry on the strike if it
takes twenty days or twenty years.
We will fight it out"
