There are over 300 Summer Homes in the mountains and on the sea- shore reached by the c. and O. Ky.

While Alabama did not get what she asked, yet what she did get Is more to be desired. will add more to her glory ana will result in greater good to Mt. vernon, since all State lines are plotted out and all will work together for one glorious object.

Instead oi exalting the patriotic labors of particular States it was agreed to merge all gifts and glory in the crowning purpose of the Associatton-the preservation of Mt Yer non as a whole. In accordance with this noble spirit. the names of the various commonwealths were ordered to be taker from the doors, and instead. only the for ner use of 7he apartment was indicated Mrs. Johnston, as the representative of Alabama, was congratulated on bringing to happy consummation a movement the results of which will be more fruitfu Of advantages to Mt.

 In the capital of the Sultan of Muscat there Is established firm of traders the only one of its kind-whose chief bus. mess is dealing in idols. These strange

 It has also a branch in the Senegambis part of Africa, which embraces Coomas' sic. Abomey, Benin, Loango. Congo. An. golo and Renguela, places where the na' tives-mostly savages-- carry on exten- sively the worshipping of sticks and stones for gods.
 Now. various sorts of savages have various kinds of gods, and chiefly their idols are crude images. fashioned by crude hands But a spirit of modern enterprise has developed even in the savage breast. and the custom of the savage making his own fetish. or god, which has been ob- served from time immemorial, is now giving place to the newer methods of buying Idols in the cheapest market; hence the reason for the Zanguebar idol dealing firm coming into existence.
 They are ready to supply to the savage tribes gods great and small, loving or warlike, made of paper. wood. or ivory, or the most precious metal. on terms which pay them and please their dusky customers. And no credit Is given, and no risk is run in worthless checks or base coin, for the bill iS paid in the local ter ritorial currency-namely, in yan1s, ban anas rice, palms. maize, dourra, nuts and beans; or In gold metal, palm oil. ivory. gums and cowries, or in cattle or slaves.

Of all historic days this one should be regularly and appropriately observed by the Society D. A.

Imncrted Workmen.

Some of the idols are dreams of first class workmanship, for the zanguebarians have imported workmen from various parts of the world, whose whole labors are expended on the monsters upon which the poor savages look with eyes of ten derness and vene-ation. Ivory and Ger. tain of the wooden gods are principally made on African territory-those of the cheaper kinds--but the more pretentious and expensive gods are made In Frame. Germany and England in factories, the existence of which nobody on thls side of the world has hardly ever dreamed.
 Tn the heart of the metropolis of the Midlands is the English factory; there is another at Mines, in France, and one at Griez, in Germany.
 The orders are sent direct to these es- tabl,shments from Zanguebar, so that there is need for no surprise if their existence is unknown. The business is unique, since 1t has no competitors and nobody travelling about Europe for or ders.
 The very best of the idols come from the English factory. since k is situated in the worlds center for hardware and nickel stuff. and where gold and silver articles are made every week by the thousand. and where the greater bulk of the worlds metallic production is con- signed,
