600, the amount necessary to complete
the statue, was raised, the greatest part
being contributed by the masses through
small subscriptions. The work was so
enthusiastically pushed by its protector
that the hand and arm holding the torch
was sent to the centennial exhibition at
Philadelphia in 1876. In 1877 a meet
ing was held in New York to further the
pedestal fund, and Congress passed reso-
lutions granting the use of Bedloe's Isl
and and appropriations for the statue.
Aug. 5, 1884, the corner stone Of the
pedestal was laid and work was contin-
ued until Oct 20, 1886, when 1T was COM
pleted and the statue unveiled. Bar

Cane Seats for Railroad Cars.

The plush seat is the central evil
which the Kentucky board is attack
ing. 1t has been placed under State
ban, and the board purposes to indict
every railroad official it can reach in
the State who can by any possibility
be held responsible for operating cars
with such seat coverings. Either leath-
er or cane is permitted as substitute.
The requirement extends beth to Sleep
ers and day coaches.
There is no question but that the
plush seat is one of the finest recepta-
cles for filth that could be devised. The
dust that blows in through the open
car windows is caught and held fast,
and if any disease germs are in the
air they are pretty sure to find camp
ing-out place on the plush until hui
man victim comes along.
Leather seats are not open to any
such sanitary objection, but they are
hot and often uncomfortable, and not
at all to be compared for downright
ease with the cane seats, which are
used In tourist sleepers and the least
pretentious cars. Another good seat
covering Is Of linen, which can be tax
en- off and cleaned at frequent inter-
vals.-Chicago Record.

You admit that you are the Vladimir

Meanwhile we must consign you to

SHOWER BATH FOR FlBBERS.
Children of the F1owery Kingdom Do
Strange Penance.

Children of the F1owery Kingdom Do
Strange Penance.
Among the many curious customs
that offer such endless source of. inter-
esting study to the Westerner travelling
in Japan perhaps there is none that
arouSes his interest so much as that
which obtains throughout the floWery
kingdom among the rich and poor alike
Of washing away their children's lies
by a species Of shower bath that is a
cleanser of the physical as well as the
moral being, says the Detroit Tribune.
Additions may play large part in
every form of japanese worship. Be-
fore the shrine which Is to be found
in almost every home there is a sort
Of crude bathtub made in the stone
floor. The water for these is supplied
from pipes which send heavy stream
down from the roof Seated before the
altar in the middle of the tub the
prevaricating culprit is made to suffer
the penalty of his many lies.
The volume of water comes dashing
down upon, his defenseless head with q
can lad ''see stars" But the japanese
liar knows there is no other way to
appease the wrath of the injured god
of truth, so he succumbs to the newt
able with a much better grace than
that with which his western brother
takes his whipping, and sits before the
shrine Of his family divinity reading
aloud for the benefit Of a number Of
bystanders the long list Of lies that has
brought him to this uncomfortable
pass.
The shrine before which this moral
water cure takes place resembles those
which are so common in the houses Of
Catholic countries The decoration Of
flowers and numerous candles is much
like that with which the pious Italian
adOrns the altar Of the Virgin or Of
his patron saint. Only the hideous lit
tie squatting figure of the Japanese
god shows that this is an infideI shrine.
In the morning the reverent head Of
the house puts a cake, a little heap Of
rice and a sprig of green upon the al
tar, an offering intended to propitiate
the god and draw down his blessing
upon the family. When darkness
comes a little lighted lamp is placed
beside the idol to cheer him in the long
hours of the night, during which, &C.
cording to Japanese belief, he faithful
Iy guards the household from all harm.

History appears to record no precedent
for such an undertaking. Maritime COM

Under such circumstances it has be-

The products of the United States are
