In Iuly.

July" is on the calendar
That now confronts the eye.
And in the slim thermometer
The mercury runs high.
The lump of ice is on the curb,
But doesn't long remain.
For in a iiffy it will melt
And search will ue in vain.
The soda fountains on the fizz,
The ice-cream signs are out.
The suns hot rays are falling on
The frames of mortals stout.
The watermclon's on the pile,
To tempt all those who pass;
The lemon slice on water tloats,
But never nearS the glass.
The bathing suit is on the girl
Who's romping on the sand.
And why that suit is never wet
Some folks well understand.
The painted shirt is on the dude,
The dude is on the mash,
The bill is on the chap who treats
Until he's out of cash.
The gay mosquitoes on the wing,
And also on the bite.
And faces that We're fair to see
Oft sadly change at night.
The lovers on the hammock swing,
And future bright is planned,
But hammock ropes are on the break,
So on the earth they land.
The dust is lying on the road,
When bikers dash away,
But through the mud they push thcil
wheels
Narictys the spice of life,
''ris useless TO deny.
And those who like that kind of spice
can find it in July.

classical benches since Paris became tho
center of France The romance Of Nillol

Curled Horsehair For Market.

South America furnishes the greatest
amount and best quality of curled horse
hair, used for filling mattresses and
stuffing furniture. On the wide pampa
many thousands of horses are bred
especially for the hair of their names
and tails. These between the round ups,
which sometimes do not occur in three
or four seasons, grow to great length,
but owing to the lack Of care and the
state of the "camps," as the open coun-
try is called, tho hair is usually tangled
in what seems an ineXtricable mass. All
over the camps grow many kinds OF
burs and thistles, and the animals as
they Craze or roll themselves about be-
come covered with them. Their coats
are naturally rough, the hair growing
in all uneven, shaggy way. Stuck all
over with burs and with name and tail
matted into nearly unwieldy masses,
the poor creatures present comical APP
pearance. After they are shorn they
seem to delight in the freedom of crop
ped necks and short tails.
The hair when cut off is freed from
dirt and roughness Of all kinds and
wound into ropes, by which means it is
made curly. 1t sells for IS cents or AS
cents a pound. The longest strands are
kept separated and used for horsehair
furniture, cloths, etc. - New York
Tribune.

The postmasters were free from all
public offices, from liability to quarter
soldiers, and they received gazettes free
of postage, "wherewith they advantage
themselves in their common trade of
selling drink, and they have their sim
gle letters free to London"
The rates of postage in 1877 were
comparatively low. A single letter i.
e., letter consisting of one sheet of
paper only-could be sent for any dis
lance up to so miles for twopence, and
and beyond so miles for threepence. A
letter weighing an ounce cost eightpence
for so miles and shilling beyond.
The mails were dispatched from Lon
don about midnight Oh Tuesdays,
Thursdays and Saturdays and were due
to arrive in London early on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday mornings. They
were carried on horseback at the rate of
five miles an hour, and they We're liable
to q detention of not more than half an
hour at each postoffice (stage) on the

The Apple Dumping.

Apple dumpling day was red letter
one in my boys calendar. When l had
such dainty bit in my bag, it seldom
staid there many minutes. Although I
had dispatched hearty breakfast before
starting, out would come the dumpling.
"Just to have look at it and to see if
1t is as big as mother generally makes
them," I would say to myself. Then I
would turn it about and admire its size.
From handling the dainty to tasting it
was sure process. "I'll have one lit
tie bite, only nibble, would say.
When I had got my tooth into that
dumpling, Adam with his apple WASH t
in it. 1t was q case of once bitten soon
gone. Then I would hurry on to make
up for my dawdling with only the
hunk of barley bread in my wallet, the
joys of the dumping behind me, and
before me the days drudgery, with per-
haps thrashing thrown. in.-"Life of
