Cost OF EIccting Presidents.

1t cost less than 800 to elect Lincoln
in 1850. 1t will cost $5,0O0,0O0 to elect
. president in 1900. From Lincoln to
tie present, each succeeding prcsidcn-
tial campaign has cost moro than tho
one preceding until now it looks as if
national committees in tho future will
need to organize something like bank
or trust company to control their ggan-
tic financial operations. Even in 1864, ut
the most critical hour in tho nations
history, only 100000 was expended in
securing tho reelection Of Lincoln. -

MASTER OF HIMSELF.
The Test Was a Unique One. but the
Boy Stood 1t.

Boy Stood 1t. T.
That was a unique way in which Mr..
Smith, a merchant of an eastern city
in want of boy, is said to have tested
the young applicants who came to him.
He put sign in his window: Wanted,
Boy; Wages 81; Sc to the Right One"
AS each applicant appeared the mer-
chant asked, Can you read?" Then
he took the boy into quiet room, gave
him an open book and babe him read
without break until told to stop.
When the reading had been going on
for Il few minutes, Mr.. Smith dropped
book to the floor and then rose and
moved certain articles about the room.
This was sufficient to pique the curiosi-
ty of some of the candidates. They
looked up, lost their place on the page,
blundered, and the merchant said:
'You may stop. | shall not need you
at present. l want boy who is mas
ter of himself"
If the reader was undisturbed by Mr..
Smiths movements, lot of roguish
puppies were tumbled out of a basket
and encouraged to frolic about the
| floor. This proved too much for most
of the boys. They looked, hesitated
and were dismissed.
Boy after boy underwent the same
treatment until over 80 had been tried
and haS failed to control their curiosi-
ty. At length, one morning, a boy read
steadily on without manifesting any
desire to look at the puppies.
"Stopw said the merchant finally.
"Did you see those puppies"
mo. sir" replied the boy. 81 could
not see them and read too"
"You knew they were there|
"Yes, sir"
"Are you fond of dogsT
Eyes, sir"
"All right. l think you will suit me-"
said the merchant. Come tomorrow.
Your wages will start at 81, and If you
prove master of yourself, as l think
you will. you shall have &c. perhaps
more"
1t was not many weeks before the
wages were So, and promotions follow

FLOATING FIELDS.
Besides Their Beauty They Are of
Practical Use In China.
panion.

Besides Their Beauty They Are of
Practical Use In China.
1t was DR.. MACEDONIAN who some
years ago described the manner in
which floating fields and gardens are
formed in China. In the month Of
April bamboo raft 10 to II feet long
and about half as broad is prepared.
The poles are dashed together, with
interstices of an inch between each.
Over this a layer of straw an inch
thick is spread, and then coating two
inches thick of adhesive mud is taken
from the bottom of a canal or pond
which receives the seed. The raft Is
moored to the bank In still water and
requires no further attention. The
straw soon gives way and the soil
also, the roots drawing support from
the water alone. In about 20 days the
raft becomes covered with the creeper,
and its stems and roots are gathered
for cooking. In autumn Its small
white petals and yellow stamens,
nesting among the round leaves, pre-
sent very pretty appearance. In
some places marshy land Is proftably
cultivated In this manner.
Besides these floating vegetable gar
dens there are also floating ricefields.
Upon RATS constructed as above reeds
and adherent mud are placed as q
flooring soil, which, being adhesive and
held in place by weed roots, the plants
are maintained in position throughout
the season. The rice thus planted
ripens in from go to 70 in place of
100 days. The RATS are cabled to the
shore, floating on lakes, pools or slug
gish streams. These floating fields
serve to avert famines, whether by
drought or food. When other fields
were submerged and their crops sod
den or rotten. these fioated and -four
ished, and when a drought prevailed
they subsidized with the falling water
and, while the soil around was arid,
advanced to maturity. Agricultural
treatises contain plates representing
rows of extensive ricefelds moored to
sturdy trees on the banks of rivers or
lakes which existed formerly in the
lacustrine regions Of the lower Yang-tse
and Yellow rivers.-Brooklyn Eagle.
