pressed in the text found in John 1894:
"A new commandment I give you. that

Origin of visiting Cards.

"The use of visiting cards dates back
to quite an antiquity" explains Mrs.
Van Koert Schuyler In the Ladies'
Home Journal, Formerly the porter
at the lodge or door of great houses
kept visitors book. in which he
scrawled his idea OF the names of those
who called upon the master and hts
family and to whose inspection it was
submitted from time to time. One fine
gentleman, a scion of the nobility from
the Faubourg st. German. was
shocked to find that his porter kept
so poor a register of the names OF
those who had called upon him. The
names. badly written with spluttering
pen and pale or muddy ink, suggested
to him the idea of writing his own
name upon slips of paper or bits of
cardboard in advance Of calling upon
his neighbors, lest his name should
fare as badly at the hands of their
porters This custom soon became
generally established"

Fin, Sarcasm.

Four or five drummers. after their
days work was over and their din
ners stored away, were talking about
the various cities of the United States
which they had visited in the course
of their business experience. New
York. Chicago. Philadelphia and Bos-
ton were left in the list of the unde-
cided when a New York man appealed
to a veteran who had been reading a
newspaper during the discussion. You
know the country pretty well. guess,

I should say" was the reply. I've
been travelling over II for thirty
years" We'll. what would you say

whose invitation is accepted to leave
a large surplus over and above all nee
essary expenses for the use of the ma
tional committee in the campaign fol-
lowing. and this makes the party man
ayers unwilling to say definitely what
actual convention expenditures were.
and. perhaps. prevents the adoption of
strict requirements as to the account
ing for those expenditures.
OF course, all the convention man
ayers say that there can be no fixed
cause every convention is different
from every other convection. Altera-
tlons In the hall might make the bill
OF expenses differ by 5000 or $780,
900 from the convention of the other
party in the same year or from a con-
vention before or after. In a rough
way 1t is possible to make a pretty
good estimate of expenses for what
might be called an average convention
by comparing such fragments OF in
formation as the party managers are
willing to give on the subject.
Certain things are expected by every
national committee of the city which
has t he honor to entertain the con-
vention. 1t must. of course, provide
the hall and whatever alterations are
necessary, and the seats and other fur
niture. and the decorations and num-
ber of incidentals. such as stationery.
It must pay the expenses of engrav-
ing the tickets and providing tho
bands of music for the convention
proceedings.

ment of the national committee as a
body, with a large suite Of the best

rule is to provide for the entertain
ment of the Individual members of the
committee as we'll The ordinary del
egates must pay their own expenses
or have them paid by their state Or
ganization. All they get are a few
tickets of admission each for their
friends, which in some cases have been
sold to meet personal expenses.

The annual report OF the Mexican
Central railway Inns some Significant
figures well worth the study of all
those who wish to invest In Mexican
securities and industries. The total
gross gain for 1879 was 81 .9o7. .122. The
bulk of this advance on the Receipts
OF 1898 was made up OF an Increase In
local freight and local passenger bust
ness. The former showed n gain OF
S1,1T5.6so and the latter S30o,554. In
ternational freight showed gain OF

business Of 500. II will be seen that
the local business was the chief factor
in putting the Mexican Central where

drawing upon the banked-up subsidy

1890 was banner year for the gov

What is the actual cost of the na-

political parties? This question is more
easily asked than answered, as have

Gals either do not know or will not
tell the details of the expenditures on
this account They seem to be part OF
the body of secrets which one national
committee hands down to another, and
which all national committees en-
deavor to keep from the public. The
national conventions are largely under
the management OF the national COM
mittees. National committees select
the time and the place, make the ar
rangements with the cities which en-
tertain the convention, manage every
thing but the actual proceedings, and
wind up the business affairs after
wards.

to the national committee and duly

In every part of the famine districts in

that $4,000 were In receipt OF Official

is so vast that 1t is difficult TO realize,
