Independently of these two sums. the total was under fifty pounds. Only five dollars had beon raised in America. There was not one subscriber in the borough of Hunting don. and only two or three from the county. About twenty or thirty small sums had been received in England and America, and, as the local committee had done all it could, it was now time, after four months, to close the matter. He suggested that the best thing would be to return the money to the subserib- CTS, and this course was decided upon

 Singing in the opera and cultivating farm are about as widely different from each other as two occupations can well be. Perhaps this is the very rea- son why Mademoiselle Galve, the great prima donna, retires eveery summer to spend her vacation on farm among the Cevennes, chain Of mountains in southern France. The famous singer, says the Philadelphia Post. was very III and nervous when she went to the Cevennes. but tnis free, open air life and vigorous exercise soon restored her to the most robust health, and when friends asked her the secret of her cure, she answers, Spades and pota- toes." Last summer she went into her kitchen garden and cared for her own vegetables. No one was allowed to touch them, and the results were far better than when her gardener cared for the things. Mademoiselle Calye wore short skirt of blue jeans. sabots. and a linen shirtwaist. She spaded and hood and Watered her vegetables day after day and proudly sent gifts of the finest fruits of her labors to friends in Paris.

use of a Great Name.

Here's tip for some of our old friends who have big names and need little ready money: Turner Beali, president of the Produce Exchange Trust Company. used to be secretary of the Produce Exchange and of the New York Southern Society. Among the men of his acquaintance he ad- mires none so much as does Colonel William de Hertburne Washington. A little while ago he asked Colonel Washington if he might use his name in financial transaction. Having im- plicit faith in Beall. the colonel con- sented, and was pleased to receive a short time afterward a check for $15,000, his share of deal made by his friend on the strength of the name of Washington.

 4 novel diversion is about to be in- stituted at the Philadelphia city hall. Within few weeks this noble pile, already distinguished as being the highest municipal building in the world, will contain. according to the Press, the highest continuous stair way in the world, and tourists who have hitherto boasted of their mus eular ability in climbing the stone steps Of the Bunker Hill monument at Charlestown, the Washington monu- ment or the monument to Gen. Brock, near Queenstown, Ont, will tell their friends of their feat in ascending the 59S steps which lead from the seventh floor of the city hall of Philadelphia to the landing about the feet of Will liam Penp- Tower-cIimbing is one of the fads of tourists. Hitherto the Bunker Hill monument, with it's 400- odd stone steps, and the Washington monument, which has a few more, have represented the acme of oppor- tunity for tests of physical endurance Ascent or descent of these steps has been boasted of, and though both so cramp the muscles of the leg that the climber for an hour afterward is hard ly able to walk upright, the distinction has the requited pain. The building commission, adds the Philadelphia Press, is pushing forward the work on the tower stairway, and within two months it is expected that it will be in readiness for climbers. It will extend from the seventh to the sixteenth floor and will contain just 598 steps of iron arranged about square, central shaft, in which will run an electric elevator, To reach the tower stairway the climber may mount the 245 granite stairs in the hanging stairways at the northern end of the building, thus making total climb of TAB steps.
