THE REVIVAL OF THE MOTTO.

The motto, whose revival is noted in
the above title, is the expression in ar
chitecture of some sentiment to the
place to which it is applied, and
eternal in its significance, writes Alice
Graham McCollin in The Ladies' Home
Journal. 1t is more frequently and
more noticeably in domestic architec-
ture than elsewhere that the motto is
found. Scarcely a country house of
sufficient size to boast a hall and fire.

ASKED IF HE CAME BY TELEGRAPH

Some of the people who live on farms
in regions remote from villages and rail-
ways have very crude ideas regarding
methods of communication by telegraph.
A short time ago a message was brougbf
to the house of a farmer not 1000 miles
from Buffalo conveying intelligence of
the death of a relative in. Ohio. The
hold were aroused at a late hour at night.
The message was read by the head of
the house and passed over to his wife.
The good woman read the unwelcome
news and then asked the messenger if
he came by telegraph from Ohio.-Buffalo

There seems to be something "eating'
your correspondent in relation to the
Christmas tree and evergreen men at
WOOdford. This man made the PROPOSE
ton to me when | first came here to
oversee my green business on commits
sion of one cent per pound. This offer
refused. He then SAID he thought he
could assist me considerably if | would
allow him to buy on commission of half
a cent per pound. | then said to him
thought could manage my own bust
ness and came here for that purpose.
In your issue Of Nov. 18th, he tells the
people they are selling their stuff too
cheap. presume the people | buy of
are the better judges of that and are sat
isfied with the price they receive. At
least haven't heard murmur and not
one has asked me to pay more. | am
paying the same price for green's that
other parties have paid here for several
years past and any man who is in the
business will tell you that it's all one can
pay and make profit from handling
them.
If l could afford to pay more / would
much rather give it to the inhabitants of
WoOdfOrd who try to earn an honest dol
lar or Two by gathering greens, than give
it to one who sneaked around for a com
mission of one cent per pound and when
he could not get one cent offered to take
half of it.
presume from appearances that this
man would rather take the cents and half
cents from those honest and industrious
people of Woodford and sit in his ''den"
trying to concoct injurious items about
the cree and evergreen men, than to earn
an honest dollar by manual labor. There
is an old saying that every community
has its changer ON At Il rough esti-
mate | should say that Woolford was
blessed" with about 200 pounds of
changer on" However | will not un.
dertake to discuss this with the good
people Of WoodfOrd. If they are salts
lied | certainly am.
If your correspondent really believes
there is such large profits in this tree and
green business, why don't he invest
trifle of his surplus; say 81 900 81 600 or
even $1,000, am sure there is no law to
prevent him getting in. But must di-
gress. | have already taken too much of
your valuable space and time.
In confidence. dear Editor, allow me to
tell you that this tree and green business
is similar to all other businesses at the
present day rs regards profit and loss.
There is but just one thing that prevents
one from getting rich at it, com petition.
Does your Woodford correspondent I'M
derstand what competition means? If
not, let him get in the tree and green
business for one or two seasons and l
will guarantee he will know Perhaps to
his profit; perhaps.

The Brave Little Peccarv.

Of the few American quadrupeds for
which an intelligent hunter entertains a
certain amount of respect, the collarod
peccary is one. Although he is only a lit
tie, flat sided, highly shouldered hog, wild
and uneducated, yet Ae is plucly fighter
when angry, and like true child of the
wild west he gets mad quite easily. 1t
always annoys him very much that any
one should dare to go a-gunning for him,
and Mr.. A. b. Baker of the Washington
200 points to long slit in the side of his
leather leggings as an illustration of what
a Texas peccary can do when he is very
angry.
This species has very wide range, be.
ing found from the Red river Of Arkansas
as far south as Patagonia. In Texas it is
no longer abundant save in the low jungly
bottom lands along the Rio Grande 1t
does not go in great droves, like the white
Tipped peccary, and it is seldom that moro
than eight or ten individuals are seen to-
gether. The time was when they were
much moro ready to fight than they are
now, but, like all other dangerous animals,
they have learned to fear man and his
deadly firearms Il. Hornaday in St.

only vases and inscriptions in that now
unknown tongue of Etruria. And indeed

YACHTING THROUGH MEADOWS.
Novel Experience In Cruising on the Nor
folk Breads In England.

The river was a thronged highway.
Yachts, barges, yawls, rowboats-such was
the flotilla riding between the meadow
banks. With the sunny whiteness of the
bullying sails was contrasted the novelty
of theproyailing background-trees, farm
houses, hayricks, garden walls, herds Of
cattle, windmills-a landscape through
which the moving sails seemed to play tho
role of winged figures. Gradually the
charm and beauty Of this river life began
to work their spell. The zigzagging of tho
yacht from shore to shore was soon accept
ed as novel way Of getting into closer
touch with river bank, the nanowness
of the river and the low, close shores CIV
ing one tho sense of being at one and the
Same moment on land and on water.
All the usual signs and sights seen and
looked for from yachts deck must be
forgotten, TO DO replaced by fresh and
novel experiences. For tho usual horizons
seen from aboard yacht, there were
fringos of larches behind which the blues
of the hills and of tho sky came together.
To test the course of the wind one looked
at the tossing tree boughs, and to note its
strength there was the waving grain to
take the place of foam capped water. The
sails we met came from behind barns, and
the bows rounded the bark of tree trunks.
To speak ship one had only to shout
across the meadows AS far as the eye
could see the landscape was dotted with
white wings Rarely above the low shores
did the river show its summed face, and the
boats in the narrow channels seemed to
walk upon the meadows. The church
spires of Horning and HovetOn browning
the hilltops alone appeared stable for tho
ever moving sails gave to all the landscape
shifting and 1uctuant aspect.-"A

PLAYING CARDS.
The Figures They Bear and What They
Are Supposed to Represent.

The Figures They Bear and What They
Are Supposed to Represent.
There are but few persons, even among
the historians, antiquarians and students
in general, who have the least idea of the
significance of the figures on playing cards.
In very early times tho four suits repre-
sented the four principal trades followed
by the people and the figures on the cards
were supposed to be symbolic of the same.
The heart was the symbol of the choirmen,
or ecclesiastics and in all early packs be-
sides the figure of the heart, each card also
bore rude picture of a monks cowl or Of
his cloak and crooked staff.
Some authorities say that the cut of the
early monkish cloak was in the form of n
heart, and that the figure used today is
but representation or picture of that por-
ton OF the old prelate's wearing apparel.
The spade is really pike, or spearhead,
and was originally the trademark of the
soldiery, typifying the nobility of that
very importaM branch of ancient "indus-
try" The artisans in general were repre-
sented by either a Mason's arch or by
diamond shaped roofing tile. The former,
being somewhat unhandy to properly fig
ure gradually gave way to the tile, which
is still used and called diamond" be-
cause of its shape. The farmers, or great
class of agricultural laborers, were given
their symbol, which was originally q wheat
head, or sheaf of wheat bound up with the
common straw band. AS clover gradually
became the chief forage grass of the agrl-
culturists, they adopted single leaf of
that plant as their card symbol. A figure
of this useful species of trefoil is still used
and is called 'club," but why no one
knows.
The four kings were originally David,
Alexander, Caesar and Charlemagne, rep
resenting the four greatest monarchies.
Authorities differ as to the queens, but the
preponderance Of the evidence is in favor
of the opinion that they are Argine, Ju-
dith, Esther and Pallas. The knaves, or
Jacks, y are supposed to DO rude carica-
lures of ancient assassins, or general all
around Villains, whose names have been
lost in the many centuries that cards have
been used in games of chance and amuse.
