Ending a Letter.

Examining 800 letters in order to
test the popularity of the various
phrases used in ending them, nearly
half the number were found to con-
clude with "Yours truly" Trite,
commonplace and devoid of meaning
as two words can be, yet they hold the
lead in favor to an extent not to be
wondered at in business letters.
every respectfully" and ''Yours re-
spectfully" gre suitable terms when
the person to receive the letter is
much older than the sender, or by
reason of his position deserves some
marked expression of Difference, but
the phrases arc too often used without
regard to their significance.
"Yours, etc." and the abbreviated
form, "Resp., for respectfully, seem
half. hearted, lazy sort of signatures;
zig-zag line would mean Us much,
and be easier to make. They have not
even the slight merit of SIN haste"
and Chastity" which at least serve as
an apology for poor writing.
AS far as simplicity goes, "Yours"
is preferable by far, and, indeed, is
The best way to say something without
meaning anything best, because tho
shorter the meaningless formula, the
better. Some polite ending to letter
is better, no doubt, than the abrupt
signature, and each person may select
for himself, but for all ordinary pur.
poses there is no better form than
"Yours truly"

Brazil's Projected New Capital.

It appears that the Brazilians are
not satisfied with their present capl-
tal, Rio de Janeiro, which is not con-
tral, not very healthy, and perhaps
not roomy enough. They are about
to build themselves o brand-new capl-
tal, embodying, as tho projectors
would say, every modern improve
ment. This news was given, says our
Paris correspondent, yesterday after
noon to the French Academy OF Sci
ences by one of its members, M. Faye.
This noted astronomer has just re-
ceived o communication anent the new
capital from Senor Cruls, who ap-
ponds to his name the substantial title
of President of the Brazilian Commit
tee of Preliminary Investigation for
the Removal of the Capital of Brazil
to the Centre of the States of the Con
federation. Senor Cruls states that
TIE new Federal capital will be built
on the central plateau of Brazil, in q
rectangle of about twenty-five miles
long and seven broad-quite city of
magnificent distances, equal to any
thing in the United States. What is
more important, the site will be n
healthy one, and, Notwithstanding tho
neurness Ct the new capital to the
equator, the climate will be compara-
lively mild by reason of the altitude.

WHY a Turl.nan Kept Ills Check.

believes in his bank through thick and

OF what happened to old Green Nor.
ris, an ignorant turfman, who lived in
Brooklyn and raced horses on all the
tracks of the metropolitan circuit. He
had big year OF winnings at Mon
mouth Park and received ut the end
of the season check from the associ-
alton for SGT, Eighteen months
later he showed that check to me, con-
siderably worn.
"Why, Green" I said, reproach-
fully, "this check is eighteen months
old. What do you mean by keeping
it so longP 1t is nearly worn out.
Don't you know that check should
be deposited at once, or cashed? Sup
pose the bank was to tail?"
Green chuckled knowingly anil

The Sparrow and the Hotel Pillow.

There was the prettiest kind OF q
study in bird-life yesterday morning
across the court from the Courant
office in one of the United States Hotel
windows. The ch4mbermaid took ad-
vantage of the sunshine to give the
pillows on airing. A pair OF them had
Just appeared in one of tho windows,
the maid evidently having then gone
to another room, when M English
sparrow espied them. Alighting upon
the pillow it gave it q careful inspec'
tion, then hoped across to tho window
and peered all about. Returning,
another careful investigation was
made, and the chatter of tho bird in
dicated that it had struck oil, so to
speak.
After again peering in at the window
and assuring itself that the coast was
clear, it returned to the end OF tho
pillow, loosened thread in the cnso

ODDS AND ENDS.

The manufacture of razors by ma
chinery has now become fixed fact
in Germany, and the quality Of the
article is said to compare favorably
with the best Sheffield product, tho
process being also applicable to scis-
sors making.
On the Belgian state railways fares
are lower than anywhere else in Eu-
rope. Recently the Belgian govern
ment has made q fresh concession.
For one pound sterling the traveller
can obtain ticket available for one
person to travel over the entire sys-

double.
That nursery tale which has charm
ed generations of children and their
elders, known as "Blue Beard" was

was O marshal of France, who lived in

numbering several wives and over one
hundred children. Being convicted
of sorcery he was burned.

One of the latest theories-which is

first gathering around large number
of nuclein and finally all united in
single sphere, the moon, the lunar

How to Read Sealed Letters.

One of the puzzling tricks per-
formed by so-called public mind-read-
ers, or clairvoyants, is m extremely
simple deception. The performer,
standing on the stage, asks several
persons in the audience to write each q
sentence on slip of paper and seal it
in m envelope.
OF course, the stationery is fur
nished and afterwards collected. One
of the audience is q confederate, and
writes sentence agreed upon before.
hand. When the assistant goes
through the house gathering up the
envelopes, the confcderate's contribu-
tion is carefully put where it will be
the last one of the lot to be taken up.
The performer picks out an envel-
ope. and, after feeling of it, with much
ceremony pronounces the sentence
agreed upon, and the confederate in
the audience acknowledges that he
wrote it.
To confirm this, the performer tears
open the envelope and repeats the
sentence, as though he found it on the
inclosed paper, which is in reality an
other mans sentence, which he reads,
and then picking up another envelope
and fumbling it over, he calls out the
sentence he has just read.
The one who wrote it says it isright,
the performer tears open the envelope,
reads what is in it, and proceeds in
that way through the lot.-Erchangc

I put it in a common glass atomizer
and spray it around the rooms wherever
flies are apt to congregate, especially

flies and they will never venture in its
neighborhood, though to most people
it has peculiarly fresh and grateful
