PARIS WILL HAVE NO MIDWAY.

To most people, and certainly to
tOse artistically inclined. some of the
chief attractions Of any great fair are
conferred in the "side-shOWs." This
year. as might be supposed, there will
certainly be no stint of spectacles
pittoresques in Paris. There is, how
ever, no Midway" on one street upon
which ali attractions congregate, bur
they tempt the tired wanderer at every
corner. Many are clustered on the
edges of the Camp de Mars, and Of
these, two Of the most attractive are
the Tour du Monde and the Swiss
Village.
The former was designed by Louis
Dumoulin, whose pictures of the Orient
are famous. It's exterior is a strange
tumble of the architecture of all the
East-HindO0, Chinese. Siameso-
making, however, very effective
mass. It's interior is in the form Of an
immense panorama, with the added
attractions Of living figures in native
dances, etc.-Earnest C. Peixotto in
Scribner'S.

THE ORNERY APHIS
GETS IN HIS WORK AT THIS TINE
OF YEAR.
REGULAR BLOOD SUCKER
Feeds on Wheat and Corn as Well as
Rose Bushes and in His Turn Fur
nishes Food for the Ant and Lady
Bug-Some Useful Information Re
garding the Little Pests.

A new pest, says the very observing
Little Chronicle of Chicago, has made
its appearance in the wheat fields Of
Kansas, Oklahoma and southern Mis-
souri,, where the fields are ready for the
harvest. 1t is the aphis or green plant
louise so often seen on rose bushes. 1t
comes in such enormous numbers that
it is usually spoken Of in the plural,
aphides. The method of attack of the
aphides is to mass themselves on a
green stalk and such the juices of the
plant until it withers. They rarely at
tack wheat, but when they do they can
ruin whole fields if they get an early
start. Fortunately they can do but
little damage in Kansas this year.
1t is a good thing to know about this

DECORATIONS AND FURNISHINGS.

Even slender purses can afford the
luxury of few flowers for the table in
the season of flowers, and no table
should be without them. They are so
restfuI, so gratefully inspiriting when
one is tagged, hot or tired by general
weather conditions. A Towering plant
may be substituted for cut flowers ac-
ceptabIy, but whether a plant or
flowers be used, only those without
heavy odors should be chosen. It is
wonderful how pretty and tasteful a
table may be made with the plaine3t
table-service if the cloth is well
Iaundered, each article arranged with
care and order, and there is added the
transforming touch Of a bunch OF
bloom. Even knot Of feld-dasies
sets a seal of refinement upon table
which is not to be disputed. IN
summer it costs but a trife 10 add
pretty furnishings to various dishes,
and certainly such touches add TO
their actual enjoyment.-Ella Morris

ARBITRATION IN LABOR DIS
PUTES.

In an address before an associ alton
economist, who is himself an extensive
manufacturer, made the following
statement showing the significant
results flowing from the national
arbitration Of labor disputes in his
line Of business:
The result Of all this is that we
have had absolute peace in our bust
ness. In the management Of our bust
ness during these thirteen years I 10
not think we have ever given a single
day to the consideration of labor CUES
tons, and never have been compelled
to publish on our letter-head that All
agreements are subject to strikes and
other occurrences beyond our con-
troll"
So happy condition of one very
large manufacturing industry is chiefly
the result of intelligent cooperation
among manufacturers whose plants are
widely scattered over the United Sta es
and whose employees are to large ex-
tent members of an aggressive union.
In this instance the union was a fixed
fact long years before the manu-
facturers had considered the utility of
cooperation. The relation OF en-
ployer and employe had become so
strained in that trade that financial
ruin was imminent. Strikes, often #
great violence, were occurring several
times annually. Conditions became
unbearable, as well to the employee
who was a continual loser by his acts
of despredation as to the employer who
was steadily drifting on the rocks.
In desperation, seeing the inevitable
failure Of separate endeavOr and
isolation few manufacturers met and
laid the foundation of an organizations
that has now the peaceful and pros
porous picture faithfully portrayed by
its most distinguished member in the
words above quoted. The significant
features of this particular case is the
fact that the employee is as w3ll
satisfied as the employer.-H. W. Hoyt
in Engineering Magazine.

RAPID TRANSIT AND LOCAL Elk
PANSION.

By the time the railway is completed,
areas that are now given over to rocks
and goats will be covered with houses,
and there will be created for the new
line, just as there has been created for
each new line constructed in the past,
a special traffic Of it's own independent
of the normal growth Of the city. The
instance that this line is finished, there
will arise a demand for other lines,
and so on until the northWard growth
of the city reaches the district beyond
the Harlem river, where the spread
can be made in other directions be-
sides one due north, or until the
burden on the transportation lines
compels a greater development in
Brooklyn and Long island, in the
borough of Richmond, and the other
outlying parts that were recently adder
to form the Greater City Of New York.

THE ORIENTAL AS A TRAVELLER

Contrary to the ordinary accepted
belief, the Oriental is by nature
traveller when he gets the opportunity,
and the extent to which he will travel
is enormous. On the $50 miles of gov
eminent lines in Japan for the year
1898. there were carried no fewer than
28,000,000 passengers, an average per
mile OF $4,000. The average number Of
passengers per mile of railway in the
United States is about 5000. Taking a
mora striking comparison, the whole
Japanese system, government and
private, in 1893 aggregating 2,246
miles, carried 84.O40,96 passengers,
while the New York Central in the
same year with 1895 miles,-or almost
exactly the same length-carried "a
O74,254 passengers, giving relative
density in favor Of the Japanese Of
more than three to one: and this in
spite of the fact that the New York
Central had the benefit Of including
among its passengers all the traffic
received from western, New England,
and other connecting Iines-Wm.

AT THE PARIS EN-
POSITION.

Behind the great grotto towers she
gigantic moss of the Palais de
IElectricite. It's designer has con-
ceived a fairy-1ike construction of the
most surprising originality, as new
and modern as the element for which
it stands. Its principal features is a
perforated crest running the entire
length Of the building. This crest is
so deliberately detailed that in the day
light is cuts against the sky like q
lacewOrk Of metal and glass, and a.
night is resplendent with all the effects
OF countless iridescent electric lights.
It's apex is surmounted by a group rep
resenting Electricity drawn by 4
Horse and Dragon and relieved against
the splendor OF a hugh sun. To give
an idea OF the height OF this building,
it may be said that the feet of the
statue stands on about the same level
as the top OF the towers OF Not-e
Dame.-Ernest c. Peixotto in Serb

acter of Dr.. Barnard's mind, that in
the first report he advocated nearly
every educational reform that has
since been introduced into the United
States.
In addition to his extraordinary Ia
bors as superintendent, lecturer and
organizer, Dr.. Barnard performed
enough literary work to fill a library.
The thirty-one volumes of his Amert-
can Journal Of Education and his fifty
two volumes of the Library Of Educa-
ton form the most complete CYCLIC
pedia Of education ever issued.

troit was a son of Dr.. Barnard.
