 Officers May Not Wed Without the Con-
 @ %5 SAs5,tsof TksEy suEa8SssJ OC.
 No German officer can marry without Inc consent of his colonel, according to Poultney Bigelow in ."The Borderlapd of en1id anti anaisert'f dlfd tlifs cbAsehb can be obtained only after careful in- quiry into all the circumstances sur rounding the proposed alliance. First. is the young lady suitable for associa- tion with the wives of the other officers? Second, will the bridegroom be able to live respectfully and bring up his fam fly? Third, are his means, or those of his wife, invested in proper securities, So that he is not liable to be expelled by reason of bankruptcy? The extraordi- nary social advantages enjoyed by the German officer and the peeuniary re- sponsibility growing naturally from such advantages make his small pay, which amounts only to about $1 day ill case of first lieutenant, appear even smaller than it is.
 An American lady who had been spending a winter in Dresden told Mir. Bigelow that all the bachelors of the garrison were furnished with a list of marriageable women, each name orna- mented with the property she might be expected to inherit. This DO doubt was mistake on her part, but it is a very common one. German officers stationed in desirable towns are very apt to get into debt and have to choose between leaving the army in disgrace or marry ing rich girl
 / MT. Bigelow adds: From my own experience ill Germany the officers would appear to have married for love and to be happy in consequence, and yet "the number of those who get into debt and fail to secure rich wife is considerable, although it makes no particular ripple ill the surface Such men simply disap- pear and turn up sooner or later in America, where they take employment as coaehmen. waiters teachers or instruct ors ill riding schools.

TIN CANS AND OLD SHOES.
They Well Reward the Italians Who Rake
 Them Out of the Ash Heaps.

They We'll Reward the Italians Who Rake
 Them Out of the Ash Heaps.
 On every dumping ground where the city contractors of Brooklyn place their ashes one may see constantly Italians working hard leveling the heaps, as load after load is deposited and care fully placing the tomato cans and other castof pieces of tinware in piles by themselves. The contractors do not ob- jeet if the householders put old cans among tho ashes, for this insures a care ful leyeling by the Italians at the dumping grounds at no expense to the contractors. The revenue from these cans that are collected by the hundreds and thousands Is q matter of surprise to most persons. A two horse load brings from SC to $S. It takes several days of hard work to get a big wagon load but the Italians don tseem to mind the labor of it, for there is money immediately in sight as tho piles of tin cans grow. They watch jealously their picking grounds and sometimes make special arrangements with the contractors for the privilege of scraping and raking the ash heaps over.
 The tin cans are sold to men with furnaces, who place them in big cal dron, and under slow fire melt the tin and solder and run that part off for fu- ture use and sale. Almost all the tin and solder is saved by this process and is salable for use in making more cans for preserving vegetables. The heat is then made intense, and the iron that re- mains is melted and cast into sash weights. The demand for these old cans is said to be greater than the supply. and one of the most valuable of the scayenger privileges that the Italians in large cities assume is that of working over all ash dump.
 The Italians also collect odd bits of leather ill heaps. Old shoes of large size are always special delight to them. A wagon load of them is always salablo for use i'll making lampblaek. There arc other sources of profit in ash heaps, but the chief sources of revenue to those who pull them to pieces are the cans and tho shoes. Now York Sun

personal Expenses In vienna.

A singular diarist recently died at Vienna. His diary is an account book of his personal expenses from the age of IT to TO. During this period it appears he smoked 628, 7l3 cigars. Of these 43, 639 were gifts. The rest cost him @, 300. He wore 85 pairs of trousers and 74 coats and waistcoats, and his total tailor's bill was close upon q, GOO His hosier's bill showed 62 pairs of very ex- pensive socks, costing about 15 shil- lings per pair; POS shirts and fronts, :" and 306 collars, all of which must have been cheap at 960.

That Troublesome Merlngue.

The secret of making the meringus for lemon pies so that it stands tall and thick is in tho baking. Whip the whites of the eggs to froth that will not fall out of tho bowl when turned upside down. Put in about tablespoonful of granulated sugar for each white, stir very little, spread it on the pies when they are just done and still baking hot without taking them out of the oven and let them bake with the oven open. If made hot enough to brown, the me- ringue will surely fall and become worse than nothing. Five to ten minutes is enough to bake the meringue dry and straw colored. Sift granulated sugar on the top of the meringue as soon as spread on the pie before baking. Phil adelphia Times.

A Long Life.

Sir Benjamin Richardson, M. D., of England, thinks that the normal period of human life is about no years, and that seven out of ton average people could live that long if they lived in the right way. They should cultivate 8 spirit of serene cheerfulness under al circumstances and should learn to like physical exercise in ascientific way. Nc man, he says, need be particularly ab stemious in regard to any article of food, for the secret of long life does not lie there. A happy disposition, plenty oi sleep, a temperate qualification of all the natural appetites, and the right kind of physical exercises, will insure lon. gevity to most Yeoplo. Now York Tribune.

TOWER HILL.
The Most Important Eminenee and Most
 Notable Spot In All London.


 Notable Spot In All London.
 Tower hill is perhaps both the most Important eminenee and the most nota- ble spot in all the metropolis. Few of us, as we pass it on steamer or cross it on our route to the Ankwerkes Pack age, at the commencement of our au- tumnal holiday, think what great per sons have quietly lived there, and what others, equally great, have wept and died upon it. To it, or rather to Great Tower street, came Rochester to pursue his trade as an Italian fortune teller, while the bedizened Buckingham often walked thither in order to consult 6 conjurer, shrewd, farseeing rogue, who, when Felton bought at the outler's shop on the summit of the hill for a shilling the knife with which he killed the duke's father, may have known for what purpose it was required.
 William Penn was born on this hill in house close to London wall. Forty four years later-that is, in A. D. 1885 -a poet lay dead, choked by crust which starvation had urged him to de- your too greedily, in an upper room of the Bull tavern. This was the i'll fated Qtway. At the time when the son of the niuses lay dead Betterton, the celebrat- ed founder of the stage after the resto- ration, was wringing tears from the eyes of the public, not for the famished dead, but at his own fictitious sorrows in ''Venice Preserved.
 It was in Great Tower street that Peter the Great used to pass his eyen- ings drinking hot pepper and brandy with his boon companion, Lord Car marthen. In the neighborhood of Little Tower street, which can scarcely be supposed to have been inspiring, Thomson composed his Summer. , In Grub street, tho supposed lurking place of many mute, inglorious Milton, much hack literary work was effected, none of which has survived the touch of times destroying hand. .-Gentleman' B Magazine.
