TRAVEL THIRD-CLASS.
Representatives of All Classes Meet
Upon Neutral Ground on Eng
lands Railways.

Nowadays everybody travels third
that is, IL one may be allowed the ex-
preston, some of everybody. There is
course, 1t be royalty, of whom we may
not meet representatives in a third
class railway carriage. says the Lon
don Spectator. Everyone is on foot
ing of equality: 1t is perhaps the only
perfectly neutral ground. We believe
there are some men who II they never
travelled by train would never know by
actual experience anything about those
below them in position. But for this
meeting ground the working classes
would remain for them simply a pic
ture or problem. They see a crowd
in the street; they discuss wages or
the housing question; they admire the
toiling figure of farm laborer thrown
into relief by sunset, and wonder,
from an aesthetic point of view, why
anyone should prefer to live in slum.
Beyond this they know nothing. With
the appearance of their domestic serv@
ants they are, of course, familiar, but
often they know little Of their person
alities. Again, there are others-gen-
orally women-who make point of
visiting occasionally at the houses of
poor people; but even in this case they
often remain not much the wiser. Both
hosts and guests are generally shy and
somewhat embarrassed. They talk re-
spectively down and up to each others
supposed levels, neither are quite
natural, and the end Of the interview
comes as a relief. But in train, we
are all at our ease, even the poorest
and least educated.

their children. decline to do so, because
OF the demands of society or through
personal vanity.
The returns of the health department.
however. show that these form but q
small part OF the total number. Other
mothers find artificial feeding necessary
because they are physically unable to
supply natural nourishment, or because
they find 1t necessary to leave their in
fants during a certain part of each day
In order to earn livelihood. The reme-
dy which DR.. Woodward suggests is the
establishment Of day nurseries through
out the city, where mothers who are
compelled to work for their living may
safely leave their children, In the scien-
tific supervision Of the milk supply Of
the city. and in the diffusion of knowl-
edge with regard to sanitary matters
throughout the community.
There Is no doubt that some Of these
suggestions will be followed and 1t is be-
lieved that the mortality among the in
fants of the poorer classes will be greatly
decreased thereby. DR.. Woodward is
already reinforced by clergymen and 9TH
er people and sermons are preached ev-
cry Sunday In advocacy of the reforms
which he has proposed.

Col. Gudgeon, British resident q
Raratonga, IL one Of the few Europe
ans who have performed the remarks
able feat of walking ON Che white hot
stones with the Fiji fire walkers, says
an article on "Fire Walkers of Fiji"
In Leslie's Monthly. In communities
ton to the Polynesian society he says:
II can hardly give you the sensa-
lions, but can say this, that knew
quite well was walking on red,hot
stones, and could feel the heat, yet I
was not burned. I felt something re-
sembling slight electric shocks, both
at the time and afterwards, but that ID
all. I do not know that / should rec
omend every one to try It. A man
must have inspiration to do it; II he
has not, it will be too late when he ID
on the hot stones of Tama-ahi-roa.
ITO show you the heat Of the stones,
quite an hour afterwards some one re-
marked to the priest that the stones
would not be hot enough to cook the
food. His only answer was to throw
his green branch on the oven and in a
quarter of minute II was blazing.
Ny feet also were very tender. The
really funny thing is that, though tho
stones were hot enough an hour after
wards to burn my green branches OF
the ii (dracoena) the very tender skin
of my feet was not even hardened by
the fire."

Joining countries on the north side Of
the river Amazon often avail them
selves Of the services Of the native
crane to care of their poultry, and also
use It In the place of collie or shep-
herd dog, to guard and herd their do
nestle animals. This remarkable
bird, which the Indians call yakamik.
is found in wild state in the great
forests that lie between the northern
coasts of South America and the ANA
ron river, particularly in Venezuela
and British Guiana. The birds never
leave the forests unless shot or cap
tured.
They travel about in focks Of from
100 to 200, in search of the berries,
fruits. an insects upon which they
subsist. Their usual gait Is slow and
stately march. but they enliven them
selves from time to time by leaping up
In the air, executing eccentric and
fancy waltzes. and striking the most
absurd and preposterous attitudes. II
pursued, they endeavor to save them
selves by running, for their flight is so
weak, according to Schomburg, that
when they attempt to fly over body
Of water of any considerable width
they are often compelled to drop upon
1t and save themselves by swimming.
When alarmed. they utter the pecu-
liar cry which has obtained for them
the name of trumpeters. The sound Is
something like that produced by per-
son endeavoring to shout the syllables
tow, tow, tow, tow, tow, tow" with
his mouth shut, or the doleful noise
made by children on New Years day
with their trumpets. The yakamiks
usually deposit their eggs In hollow
in the ground, often at the foot of a
tree.
A nest generally contains ten eggs
Of pale green color. The young birds
follow their mothers as soon as they
are Matched, but do not lose their
pretty downy covering until several
weeks old. The yakamiks are very
readily tanned and prove valuable SER

them, and as they are courageous, and

care at every risk to themselves, even
dogs are obliged to yield to their au-
thority.
They may be trusted with the care
Of q flock of sheep or domestic fowls,
and every morning will drive the
ducks and poultry to their feeding
places, and carefully collecting any
stragglers, bring them safely home at
night. A yakamik soon learns to know
and obey the voice of his master, fol-
lows him when permitted wherever he
goes. and appears delighted at receiv-
ing his caresses. 1t pines at his abb
sence, and welcomes his return, and is
extremely jealous of any rival. Should
any animal attack its master, the va
kamik in utmost fury attacks 1t with
wings and beak, driving 1t away.
1t presents itself regularly during
meals, from which 1t chases all do
nestle animals, and even the negroes
who wait on the table, II 1t is not well
acquainted with them, and only asks
for q share of the eatables after 1t has
driven away all who might aspire to a
favorable notice from the family.

THE PLAYING-CARD SUPPLY.
Il Amounts to Ten Cards . Year for
Each Inhabitant in the
Country.

One of the internal revenue taxes
provided by congress to meet the ex-
pense of the Spanish war was tax
of two cents on each pack of cards
manufactured in the United States,
The usual pack contains So cards, or
with joker, SO, but for the sake
of uniformity the number was fixed
by congress at "a, says the New York
Sun.
The government revenues from the
war tax on playing cards amounted
to about $1,000 for each working day,
and assuming that all the packs were
full decks the average number manu-
featured in each year was 10000
packs, or 7SO, 900, 900 cards. The popu-
lation of the United States is, approx
imately, 10000, 900, and there were ten
cards manufactured each year for
each man, woman and child in the
United States.
10 the total revenue of 100000
from playing cards, Ohio contributed
$40, 700, New York following with
100000, and Michigan and Illinois
with $4,000 each. These four states
have a practical monopoly of playing
card making in the United States.

great to secure for him sinecure In the

ministration. That was the only mill
tary connection he ever had, but he made
for himself colonels uniform and ap-

For a short time, about the time OF the
Chilean episode in Harrison's admins

the news of the attack on our sailors at
Valparaiso. That was his only regular
occupation, with the exception of his
brief service in the war department, dur
ing the 30 years he lived at Washing

New EIectrlcal Noyelty.

The game of sylphs is the most re.
Gently devised form of amusement; il
is in reality electric battledore and
shuttlecock. The two players hold
a wand each, these wands having
been electrified by friction. The
shuttlecock is represented by but
terfiy made of collodion. The butter
fly is thrown into the air, and one
or other player approaches the tip
OF his wand to the so-called sylph;
the electrified wand repels the but
terfly, which skins away as the
wand draws near. In this way the but
terfy is sent flying hither and thith-
er without being touched. A very
good game, with the proper rules, is
made from this idea.
