LIFE IN ENGLAND IN 1885.
A Letter Which Tells How Folks In
Those Days Passed the Time.

Those Days Passed the Time.
In the year 1856 there was a houseful
at q certain English country place in the
autumn. 1t consisted of an elderly dow
ager and her two unmarried daughters,
member of parliament. two young oil
GERS and clergyman, the writer Of a
letter which has been handed down to
this generation. The letter tells how they
passed their time. There were, besides,
occasional visitors in the neighborhood.
The first night of his arrival the writer,
fatigued by his journey, went to bed ear
ly. In the morning he got up betimes in
order to enjoy the air. The house, how
ever. was still locked up. Not a single
servant was down. Presently a boy ap-
peared, who told him that Mr.. LIS gen
tlcmen" had entertained the visitors
'gcntlemen" at cards till in the morn
ing.
at II o'clock the party began to appear
one by one for breakfast. The dowager
and Mrs. L., the hostess, did not come
down because, as the young ladies put it,
they could not be "made up" so early.
The girls themselves, who had not taken
the trouble to make up" were in rum
pied nightcaps and their hair sin a brown
paste" over their shoulders. The gentle
men coined with the second teapot" a
very odd way of dividing the meal. Their
heads were still ''in disorder" from the
gin punch of the night.
Breakfast was got through about /.
The weather being rainy, the gentlemen
played billiards and cards. The writer
would have sought refuge in the library,
but found that the books were for show
and not for use. 4 box Of things from a
London drcssmakcr having providentially
arrived, everybody-men and women to-
gether-spent the afternoon in discussing
chffons.
At they dined. At the men Joined
the ladies', and they sat down to cards.
Farthing loo was the favoritc game when
the young ladies played. On Sunday some
of them went to church. The young peo-
pie nodded and laughed all through the
service. They sat in gallery by them
selves; they cracked nuts and pelted each
other with the shells, while one of them,
who could draw, made caricaturcs of the
country people down below. The clergy
man, however, was n great favorite at
the house, because he kept the ladies ac-
quainted with all village scandals; could
tell the gentlemen where coveys of par
tridges were to be found; was useful in
drawing corks. 1t remains to be stated
that one of the guests taught a new way
of dressing mushrooms and superintended
in person the preparation of the grouse
soup.-Chicago News.

DR.. Nanscn, the arctic explorer, came
across an freshman on one occasion who
declared that he had Travelled farther
north than anybody.
"What nonsense!" exclaimed the doc
tor, getting angry. "Why, sir. do you
know l calculate to have Travelled as far
as any human being can possibly get"
But still the Irishman persisted, and
went on to say:
"Now. listen to this. How do you know
that we've Travelled as far as any human
being can get %
Because" replied the doctor. II came

ASKED TO TEACH VICTORIA.
How q Young American Jewess Lost
an Interesting Opportunity.

How q Young American Jewess Lost
an Interesting Opportunity.
"This is brand new stitch" said the
young woman, holding up a dainty piece
of embroidery, "and if you will come
some day when We can be all alone I'll
teach you how to do it."
THAT reminds me of good story"
said her companion. you know that
Queen Victoria is a crank on the subject
of needlework and spends much time
learning new things In embroidery and
crochet work. Well, few years ago she
was spending some time at Wiesbaden,
and she used TO drive to the bazaar and
look at the needlework, while people
looked at her and wondered why she
would persist in wearing the old, rusty
bonnet. One day the young woman who
usually waited OH her showed her what
you just showed to me-a brand new
stitch-and WAS asked to call the next
day and tench her majesty how to make
It. She was to make q second call to
finish the job several days later, but in
the meantime was taken ill, and the pro-
prictor of the establishment was beside
herself and worried as to how and where
she would get substitute.
ION the day before the appointed time
young girl from u western city in the
United States came to the bazaar and
saw and admired the piece of needle
work and told the salcswoman that it
was the first she had seen since she had
finished n similar piece.
Then you know how to do the
stitch?'
Certainly said the young woman.
'WhyY
well, there was a whispered consuta-
ton, and then the girl was asked if she
would act as substitute the next day and
teach the queen. You can imagine that
she did not hesitate. She went to the
hotel. and, radiant with joy and excite
ment, told her mother of her good for
tune, and, after she had received the
congratulations of her friends, her moth
er shattered all her plans by reminding
her that the next day was Saturday and
that. as n good Jewess, she could do no
sewing on that day. And now the young
woman tells the story of how near she
came to teaching Queen Victoria a new
stitch."-New York Tribune

The following is told by the grand
daughter Of nm old lady who lived in one

for n last farewell, when suddenly she
opened her eyes and, on seeing the mourn

Horsehide.

The use of horsehide in razor strops is
familiar, but this is only one of many
uses to which horscilide is put. 1t IL
an excellent and valuable leather. Some
parts of the hide are used for shoe up
pers, the leather produced for the pur-
pose being called Cordovan, from Cordo-
va, in Spain, where it was first made.
Horsehide is used also for the manufac-
ture of gloves and mittens and in book
binding, and there is made of it an imita-
ton buckskin. Horsehidc is used i'll max
ing whiplashcs, and some parts of ii
are used for making shoestrings. 1t is
used for n carriage leather, in covering
seats and so on. Horsehide is much thin
ner than cowhide.
The supply Of horsehides comes chiefly
from cities. Some horsehides are i'm
ported from Europe, the greatest number
of these coming from Russia. The finest
of nil horsehides come from Normandy,
in France. AS compared with the num-
Der of cowhides and other hides tanned
the number of horsehides is of course
limited, but in the aggregate it is large,
and there is n demand for all the leather
produced.-New York Sun.

Perhaps the most adventurous addition
to the house mcnagerie in London Is that
of hive of bees which live in sitting
room and fly out to gather honey in Hyde
park among the flowers and the blossoms
of the London lime trees. The bees are
reported to be as Industrious and cxem-
plary as bees should be and not to be
demoralizcd by such intimate association
with less industrious human beings. The
practical difficulty in the way of keeping
bees in the house arises when the cold
weather comes in, because they are
tempted to carry on work" in the house
when it is too chilly for them to be
abroad, and when bees are anxious to be
busy with no work TO hand their temper
is always neutrality-suspicious..

IMMUTABlLIS.

For death must come and change, and, though
the loss
Seems to the lonely soul the heaviest cross,
More bitter is the fate that day By day
Sees, with sick heart, the slow and sure decay
OF love and faith, and all our years we spend
In sorrow that those deathless things can end,
Far kinder than were death, for SO could We
Be left with an unchanging memory,
And after years this comfort would restore
That which death takes is ours forevermore.
