Origin OF Straw Bail.

The origin Of the familiar phrases.
''straw BALI and a ''man of straw" is
a most curious one. 1t dates back 200
years, when the practice of entering
worthless bail was common. The ex-
act methods have not been transmitted
to pOsterity, but in several old English
works is to be found reference to them.
In one of these-Fielding' Life of
Jonathan Wild" the thief catcher-we
read that Jonathan's aunt married n
a disposition that he was bail for above
a hundred persons in one year. He
had q also the remarkable honor of walk
ing In Westminster hall with straw
time when English lawyers wished to
procure witnesses with elastic con-
sciences or men who would go bail for
their clients, they went into Westmin-
ster hall, into which the principal
courts Of law opened, and there would
quickly recognize the men they wanted
by giancing at their shoes. from which
protrude1 a straw or two, thus indi-
eating their calling. Because of this
trade mark, so to speak. these prOfes-
sional witnesses or bail-gC s. became
known as 'men of straw" or ones who
were willing, for a consideration to
enter STRAW bail."-Philadelphi Pub
lie Ledger.

Means to Make Much Money.

II. l. TwigS, a young English farmer,
has secured n large tract of land in
Kentucky, near Richmond, and an
nounces that he has established pos
sum farm, says the New York World.
Were he Yankee it would be sus-
pected that the announcement of the
'possinm ranch was part of Il scheme to
coloniZc the adjacent district with col
ored people, possible buyers OF small
tracts of land. But Mr.. Twigg Is said
to be quite sincere in his undertaking,
having figured out that. as 'possum is
considered such delcacy as to com
mand fancy prices, there is money in
the scheme. He has, under advice of
an experienced old colored gemman,
who has assured him that the 'possum
am very dainty eater" planted on the
ranch n large number of persimmon and
haw trees and haZelnut bushes. He
has started in with twenty 'possums in
the warren, and, calculating upon the
remarkable fecundity of the animals,
expects by next fall to be able to sup
ply the Louisville demand at least.

PRESIDENTIAL BILLS.
France Pays Much More than We fo
Her Chief MaSistrate.

France Pays Much More than We for
Her Chief Magistrate.
Compared with those of the President
of France, the emolumeDts of the Pres
ident Of the United States are consid
erably less. Every one knows that the
chies executive of this country receives
a salary OF $5O, 900 year, but the other
expenditures for which the nation al
lows him people are, in general, less
clerks. doorkeepers and servants cost
S35, ,0OO annually; SIS, 900 Is at the Pres
idents disposal for buying furniture
for the White House and for keeping
1t in repair: $1,000 is allowed for fuel,
and $1,000 for maintaining the green
houses up to the mark. The total cost
is, therefore, about $1O7 900 per year.
The bare salary of the President Of
the French republic Is 100000, or S13.-
900 more than this country's total eX
penditure for a chief executive. In ad-
dition to this. the French President Is
allowed the services of two military
and three civil secretaries, a small army
Of men servants (whOse wages and
board are paid by the State), house

20 plentiful that he can sell nearly $lO.-
600 worth a year after his own wants
are satisfied. valuable preserves in the
forests of Marty and Ramboullet be-
Ing set apart for the Presidents use.
Even his musical and theatrical tastes
are paid for by the public, for he has
box both at the opera and the Theater
FNncais. If he does not care to use
these boxes. however, the President
and his family can enjoy the perform
ance at home by telephone communi-
cation.

HOW TO BAKE BREAD.

HALF the failures with housekeeper5
in making good bread, are due to their
ignorance as to the proper condition
of the oven for baking. For, no matter
how perfectly the sponge may rise or
how well it is worked, if put in cool
oven it will be porous and tough, and
liable to ferment and become sour.
When bread is ready to bake, the oven
should be very hot, as the heat will
cause it to rise at once almost double
its former size. A good test for the
inexperienced is to sprinkle little
flour on the bottom of the oven; if it
browns Immediately the bread can be
safely set in.
If bread is allowed to rise too much
before setting in the oven it is apt
to fall and rise again, by which 1t will
become coarse. This can be prevented
by working the bread done, adding
fresh -four and molding in the pans
the flour will keep the bread from
souring, as it might do without it.
After ernst is formed on the bread,
the oven should be allowed to moderate
a little, and be kept at regular heat
until the bread is done. When taken
from the pans the loaves should be
placed, uncovered, in such a position
as will expose the surface to the air.
This will prevent the crust from being
hard, as we'll as permit the rapid es-
cape of gas involved in the process o.;

Grandpa Policeman.

Willie had been spending his vacation

a great many things there which SUR

away up In the branches Of q tree he
espied a large white bird. He knew
at ouce from it's size and the shape of
its head that 1t was an owl, and he
sped away to the house AZ fast as his
feet could carry him.

reached the door, there's q big white

Grandpa looked up slowly at the ex-
cited boy and then he answered de-
liberately, "Shoot him! No indeedl
He's my policeman" Then seeing
Willie's look of astonishment he went
on. "Yes, there's a band o: robbers on
this farm and that owl will arrest most
of them before the summer Is over If
we let him alone"
Willie looked even more astonishcd
at this information and his resolve to
go straight back to the woods sudden

Demand for Mother OF Pearl.

DeInanu NhOtneT VI tcdEls
Considering the vast values in gem
pearls obtained from the eastern fish
cries, 1t is surprising to find that the
plain, unromantic mother of pearl Sc
cured is of even greater worth. Pre-
viou5 to the discovery of the extensive
Australian fishing grounds in 1865. the
supply of mother of pearl was dimin-
isbing, while the demand was increas-
Ing. The large shelled species already
mentioned are there found in fine quail
ity. The shells are the size of large
soup plates, weigh a pound each, and
are worth about 81 a pair. An expert
diver, in diving dress, will collect 300
or 400 pairs in day. About 100 gem
pearls are found in every ton of these
shells.
Beautiful art work In carved and in
laid mother of pearl has long been pro-
duced in China and Japan. Some idea
of the extent of It's European use Ia the
arts and manufactures may be had
from the fact that 100000 people are
engaged in working mother of pearl in
Austria, and half that number in
France, while the value Of the annual
import into England IS nearly 81 800,
600. In the Philippine Islands windows
are made of mother of pearl, and James
Anthony Froude, in his volume of voy-
aging in Oceana, describes frightful
Maori idols with slips Of mother Of
pearl glittering in their eye sOckets;
while In Cashmere 1t Is the custom to
inlay the Inscriptions in tombstOnes
with the same exquisite substance. To
cap the climax of curious uses Of the
lustrous nacre. it is said that large
quantities Of seed pearls are imported
into China to be calcined into medicines
for the Celestials.-Popular Science

Italian Adventure. in Aby.sinia.

Italian Adventure in Abyssinia.
Comparable In many respects 10 our
Indian fighting, the disastrous cam
paign in Abyssinia has not merely
taught the Italians a hard lesson, but
has supplied them with a fund of
stories Of individual bravery which
will prove bracing to the national val
or, though the main result of the cam.
palgn is crushing to the national pride.
Men engaged In desperate conflict
with the North American Indians are
known to save one charge in their rifles
or revOlvers tc be used on themselves
at the last eXtremity-to save them
from Indian torture. 1t is estimated
own hands in the battle Of Adowa and
during the terrible days which followed
1t for the same reason.
General Arimondi is known to have
committed suicide I'm the presence of
his remaining men; but this was rather
from chagrin and grief than from fear
Of torture at tie hands of the enemy.
Sometimes the Italian officers were
too ready to fasteIf~their fate, and in
6Oulc Iu6tduceS tuty tStiiiliteu 100
favorably the character of their enemy.
Captain Ademollo and Lieutenant Me-
narini. after being both badly wound
ed, fell into the hands of the Abyssin-
ian chief, Sebat. They expected to be
put to death, but through the interven-
ton of the chief they were given drink
and set at liberty.
Soon, however, they were surround
ed by another band Of about a dozen
natives. BY this time the two officers
had been joined by an Italian corporal,
who had his rife. Giving themselves
up for lost, the two officers We're about
to shoot themselves.
Don't be such foolsr' said the cor
pOral. He led the way to rock, and
the three white mel leaned their backs
against it. Then the corporal proceed
ed to bring down three or four of the
Abyssinians to skilifully that the rest
took to flight Captain. lieutenant and
corporal all succeeded in reaching q
place of safety.
The name of the corporal is not pre-
served by the Italian papers which mar
rate this adventure, though he seems
more worthy of fame than many men
of higher rank.

kept in q closet in general use, it is
best to put them in bags of bed-tick-
ing or some other heavy cotton, and
hang them up where they will be free
from dust and dirt. If they are kept
in closet reserved for the ironing
material they need not be covered.
Tubs and ironing-boards should be
kept in cold place, and there is no
objection to little dampness. May
