The I’Vays of Wash “1.0.
*
From Lippincotl.
To a lazy Chinaman as to a phi1030pher,
everything is a matter for marvel. His life
is wondered away by the hour. He picks
up a piece of scrap-iron in the street, and
first he wonders for an hour what it has been
used for, and then he speculates for sixty
minutes concerning some possible use to
which he may turn it. You step into the
post-office to mail a letter; he follows you,
wondering what you are going for; you buy
a stamp, he counts the change and estimates
the cost; you lick it, he is amazed at the
process; you slide the letter into the box, he
catches a last glimpse of the vignette on the
stamp, notices a man’ head with attachment
of pigtail, and he goés out and sits down on
the extreme edge of the sidewalk and stares
at nothing, while he wonders if that man was
Confucius.
Like the proverbial country»boy who has
never left his home, the Chinaman is gawky
and ungraceful in the extreme, but never was
there a hook-agent, one of that class of men
who travel so .much, that had more of cool
audacity than he. His jocose familiarity is
more‘than audacious at times—it is insolent.
Should you stop in the street to exchange a
word of courtesy with a lady acquaintance
Whom you meet, John loafs along, his slov-
enly slippers flapping at his heels, and sud—
denly your coat becomes a matter of mighty
import to him. So, in his innocent imperi—
inence he walks 'around you and stares,
studying it as if he were a tailor and an ar—
tist. Then coming nearer to examine the
frabric, he does not hesitate totake the fabric
in his hands, pressing it to his palm of his
cheek—of which he the great quantity—in
order to determine the nature of its texture.
Now such hangers-on are not pleasant to have
albeit they are of celestial origin, as they
boast; the Chinaman is a very good cook.
but he is not handsome enough to play the-
valet or footman, to hold up one's skirts in
the streets. . .
Once an old and toothless child 'of the sun
entered our camp and inquired “who bosses
here ?” It being supposed that he had vege-
tables to sell, he was referred to the tent of
the gentleman in question. This he invaded
sidled up to the occupant, slapped him con-‘
.vivially on the shoulder, and said, “You
bosses here? Shake hand!" And. having
paid his respects in this informal manner, he
_ seemed to have\no further communication
0
to make, but began inspection of our camp
furniture, which task promised to occupy
him the rest of the day. Thinking to en-
tertain our high-born guest, our musical man
sang him the song beginning-and, it is to
be hoped, ending also—with the following
lines:
Pretty little Chinawoman cook a little chow-
chow,
Live beside a little hill, in a little house;
Take a little pussy cat and a little bow-wow,
Cook ’em in a little kettle with a little
mouse.
“What do you think of that, John ?"
“Heap crazy man i" was the disdainful and
laconic rebuke with which the heathen
crushed our minstrcl.
These men are certainly of the lowest and
most ignorant grade at home, and yet there
are few laundry-workers of other nationali-
ties—Irish, German or colored—who can
handle the pen as easily as they wield the
brush. Take your week’s linen to one of
those houses, and immediately one of the .
inmates :seats himself at the. desk, dips the
brush into the moistened surface of a cake
of ink, and with many a dash and artistic
stroke, every one of whose curves is a line
of beauty, he makes out a memorandum of
the articles consigned to his care. These
washing-lists, looking so like- the labels on
our packages of firecrackers, are greatly in
demand, and are carried away as souvenirs
of travel in Chinatown. Absent fathers send
them home to their children; humorous stu- '
dents on summer vacation 00nsign them to
their old professors; calling them lost manu-
scripts of great archaeological worth; and once
there was an injudicious lover who sent one
home to his sweetheart.
It was in this way? He was a‘practical
joker, and, having one of these laundry ‘
documents in 11's possession, he thought he
would have some fun. So he sprinkled the
delicate paper with. sweet essences and ad—
dressed it to his heart's own. With this be
dispatched a letter, in which he said that the
inclosed was a Chinese madrigal, written at
his instigation expressly for her by one (i the
greatest of China’s poeto, and, further, that
it ,was to be read ;to slow music from the
gentle tomtom, with an occasional passionate
outburst from the gong. 1The lady, devour-
ed with anxiety to learn the sweet words of-
this mystical message, forwarded it to a
translator who returned answer, couched in
all the cold precision of business that the
writing certified that this gentleman, the
practical joker,had~deposited with Mr. Wash
Lo, washerman, one shirt, two collars, one
pair hose, et al., and that the same w ere to
be duly cleansed, ironed and ready for re-
turn on such a day. -It is said that the lady’s
reply to this practical joke was read without
the assistance of a translator. and the tune to
which he read was the dirge over a lost love.
This fable teaches us that it is Well to reserve
one’s practical joke’s on one’s sweetheart till
after the wedding day.

The Postmaster Forger.
The forger who was arrested just as he
had entered upon a grand swindling scheme
directed against postmastcrs and who had
selected New Haven as one of his places of
operation is Linton E Groof,_and he is post-
master at Linton, Ohio? He also has a
_ printing office at Wellsville, Ohio. Detect-
ive Tidball was unable to recall at first
where he had seen his prisoner before, and
the man refused to give his name. He told
Tidball that he was one of a gang of twelve
or fifteen persons, comprising postmasters,
route agents and printers, whose operations
covered an aggregate of more than $100,000.
The gang, according to the story of the pris-
oner, had been counterfeitiugipostal money
orders and postal cards. Mr. Tidball at last
recalled the man’s name,‘ and remembered
having investigated his bond some time ago.
When on the train to Pittsburg, Tidball
suddenly called the prisoner by his own
name’ “Mr. Grofi," very much to the latter’s
surprise, and not long afterward obtained a
full confession of all his operations. In his
satchel there were found counterfeit postal
orders, bearing the forged signature of the
. postmaster ;at East Liverpool upon thirty-
threc different offices in Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts.
There were 186 money orders in all, each
order being for $50, and aggregating $9,300.
He had presented six orders, each upon Ir.
win, Latrobe, Blairsville, Johnstown, Mt.
Florence and Altoona, but had drawn only
$650 upon them. He had requested the
postmasters to forward the balance of the
‘ money by registered letter to Boston,Mass.

The degree of heat necessary to destroy
trichinae inpo‘rk is .a matter of importance
as a safeguard against trichinosis. A German
miroscopist states that only the most thorough
_ cooking of meat will ensure perfect safety,
as pork cooked to a degree known as “rare"
may still contain the living parasites so much
dreaded. ,
A French electrician, M. Gailfe, has in-
vestigated the peculiar sounds which inter-
fere with messages sent on telephone lines.
He finds that the rounds are largely due to
the vibration of the telephone wires by the
wind. The rounds are doubtless often pro-
duced by the inductive action of electric
currents passing over Iltighboring telc—
graph wires; but this is far from being
the only cause,as has been generally believml.
A Germannaturalist has contrasted the
behavior of dill‘crent‘animals towards steam
machinery. That proverbially stupid animal
the ox, stands composedly on the rails in
front of a locomotive without having any
idea of the danger which threatens him;
dogs run among the wheels of a departing
railway train without suffering any injury;
and birds seem to have a . peculiar delight in
the steam engine. Larks often build their
nests and rear their young under the switches
of a railway over which heavy trains are
constantly rolling, and swallows make their
homes in engine houses. Apair of swallows
have reared their young for years in a mill
where a noisy three hundred horse power
engine is working night and day, and another
pair have built their nest in the paddle box
of a steamer. ,
The oldest specimens of timber in_ the
world are supposed to be the dowel pins
contained in the ancient temples of Egypt.
These dowel pins are incorporated with,the
stone work, which is known to be less than
4,000 years old, and are believed to have
been made from the tamarask or shittim wood
of ancient Egypt—a tree now sometimes
found in the Nile valley.
Careful observations have shown the fol-
lowing to be about the average growth in
twelve years of several varieties .of hard
wood when planted in groves and cultiavted.
White maple becomes 1 foot in diameter
and '30 feet high; ash, leaf maple or box
older, 1 foot in diameter, and 20 feet high;
white willow, 18 inches in diameter ,and 40
feet high; yellow willow, 18 inches in di—
ameter and 35 feet high; Lombardy poplar,
10 inches in diameter and 40 feet high ; blue
and white ash, 10 inches in diameter and 25
feet high; black walnut and butternut, 10
inches diameter and 20 feethigh.
Dr. Hammond states that there are very
few, if any, cosmetics which do not contain
lead. He also says that death from lead
poisoning by the use of cosmetics is by no
means an uncommon case. The introduction
of the lead into the system produces variovs
effects, colic, paralysis, prostration of ‘the_
nervous system and insanity being the most
common results.
Recent investigations have shown the
incorrectness of the pretty stories of insect
eating plants which have so often been given.
Insects are often caught by the sticky exu-
dations of certain plants, or otherwise, but
no evidence can be found to show that the
plants digest insects and thrive by an
abundance of such food, as has been so often.

The ,Man Who Smokes.
Fifty years ago the use of intoxicating
drinks seemed no worse to Christian people
in this country than the use of tobacco seems
now. Some of us believe that fifty’years
hence Christian people will be opposed to
tobacco as they now are to strong drink.
Not that we suppose tobacco does the harm
that drink does. But as the public sentiment
gets the upper hand of larger evils it lays
hold of lesser ones. .Time was ineed, when
Iintemperance was a matter of little moment
compared with the heavier curses that rested
on society. And of course we do not forget
that there are multitudes of people who are
yet unreached by temperance influences. But
Christian people in the United States are as
well engaged on the (uty of total abstinence
as :they are on any duty th lies outside
the reach of the statue book. . ow it isfime
for a step ahead ; time to take the tobaccco
habit in hand.
If the duty of preaching and practicing
total abstinence can be shown in the case of
whiskey, it can in the case of tobacco. I’
doubt whether one in a hundred-cf the
ministers, deacons, or Sunday school teach -
ers who use tobacco in this year of our Lord
1880,'do it without some secret misgivings:
The misgivings may be feeble and vague,
but there is encouragement in them for this
reform. And if we are ever rid of the fumes
of tobacco, the work will certainly begin
by disinfecting the clothing and. cleansing
the breath of ”church members. That task
would be half done, moreover, if we could
get the unembellished facts about tobacco
squarely before them.

WHAT IT Bumps Mn. STEPHENS 0F.—
“What do you think of Conkling’s resigna-
,ti0n P” some one asked of Hon. A. H.
Stephens on Monday. “Well,” he answered,
“I am reminded of a story of a suit between
two men about the payment of a promissory
note, down in Georgia, near where I live.
The defendant admitted he had given the
note and received the money, but said :
gentlemen of the jury, I have offered to pay
him over and over again, and he wouldn’t
take the money, because he wanted to sue
me, just out of spite. It’s nothing but spite.’
The jury actually brought in this verdict:
‘We find it a case of spitc.’ “Similarly,"
continued Mr. Stephens, “1 find this action
of Mr. Conkling ‘a case of opite.’ ”‘ Mr.
Stephens also said, when some one remarked
that Conkling and Platt had acted very much
.the same as the southern Senators did in
1861, who resigned their seats just because
a President was elected whose views did not
suit tnem. “Of course they have, and they
should be treated just as the southern Sena-
tors were, and not be allowed to come back
until their disabilitiefare removed."

TEMPERANCE.
[Contributed by Ladies ontorwjalk Temp. Union.
It Would seem that if a man was at Christ-
ian he would be astonished at the idea of
another beloved Christian voting in favor of
saloons. _To be a Christian is to be like
Christ. Does any one suppose that if ‘the
Saviour of men was on the earth that He
would support saloons P Would He sign a
petition ergo on a bond of a saloon keeper ?
Then howzcan His followers so lightly treat
his example? The facts are the more re—
ligion a man has—if it is not a genuine ar-
ticle—the worse off he is. A poor article of
religion fills a man with prejudice and bigo-
try. A poor spurious article of Christianity
Is a poor cloak for this life, and certainly
will not. be worn in the next world.
Christians who always vote for whiskey will
not hear it said in the last that they gave a
cup of cold water to this or that disciple, but
you gave a cup of liquid fire to the poor
tempted creature who could not stand alone.
A whiskey Christian must be an abOmination
unto the Lord.

A bill has been introduced in the Legis-
lature of Wisconsin, which authorizes and
requires women to.votc at the next general
State election upon the question whether
they desire to have the elective franchise
conferred upon them, and to assume the
duties and obligations of male citizens.
Separate boxes are to be provided for them.

not more than two years, or both ; and any
man guilty of intimidating, controlling, or
willfully obstructing any woman in voting,
or of insulting any woman in going to or
from the polls, is to be fined not less than
$2,000 or imprisoned not more two years or
both. If the woman suffragists of Wiscon-

The Kansas Temperance Executive Com-
mittee have issued an address congratulating
the people of the State upon the progress of
the temperance cause. They say: “By the
votes of her citizens, by the decision of her
Supreme Court, and by the action of the
Legislature, Kansas has declared herself
forever free from all partnership in' gthe
traffic of intoxicating liquors, and now leads
the world in the effort to suppress by con-
stitutional law the great scourge of the na-
tions. Only by a prompt and vigorous en-
forcement of the laws can we have a right
to hold the post of honor in the great war~
fare with intemperance. The passage of the
amendment has been followed by the enact—
ment of a law that is stringent in its provis-
ions. It is noteworthy that the law passed
the Legislature by a large majority. The
vote in the Senate was 32_to 7, and in the
House 100 to 23, thus giving a majority, in
both houses of more than four to one.
va PoIsoruNG.—Rev.' J. E. Baker of
Rochester, N. Y., writes as follows: The
article in your issue of April 14 on ‘Ivy
Poisoning’ inclines me to say to such of your
readers as may have the misfortune to be
poisoned by ivy, that speedy relief and an
early cure may be obtained by an occasional
application of tincture of sanguinaria to the
poisoned surface. This is a remedy I have
often tried upon myself with success. To
whom belongs the credit of discovering it, I
know not. My father who was a physician
obtained this knowledge of it from one of his
"patients.
it from one of his patients.
Rev. Joseph Vance of Erie, Pa., also
furnishes a remedy which he has used for
about sixty years on himself and scores of
development of poison, from the first burn-
ing itching to the dark. ugly ulcers, and has
never known it to fail of effecting relief at
once, and a thorough cure. He says: “The
remedy is a strong tea made of the bark of
a tree known in my native State (New Jer-
sey) by the odorous name of Stinking Willow
—here (Erie, Pa.), Pigeon Willow, or
Kinnikinic (Indian name)—app1ied to the
poisoned parts by .bathinga few times. A
single bathing is often siifficient.’ There is
also_a shrub, named in New Jersey, Rose
Willow, of like efiicacy; it grows along
brooks and in wet. places. Many a time
when ’working in the hay field I have been
poisoned, and have chewed. a bit of the bark
of the Pigeon Willow- (or ,Rose Willow) for
a few seconds, and applied the meistened-
bark to the part afiedted; and obtain ed a
cure at once. With your permission, I will
give a single instance of the efficacy of the
above named remedy. About the year 1835
my family physician came to me saying, ‘I
have a poisoned patient in yonder house, on
whom I have been trying every remedy
given in my books for the last twenty-four
hours, without any favorable result. He is
badly swollen, and the swelling is spreading
rapidly, and he can live but a short time 'un-
less relieved. If you know of anything that
you think will relieve him. I wish you would
name it, or furnish it as soon as possible.’
This was near sunset. I went to the woods.
got a bundle of the willow bark, and gave it
to the anxious mother of the patient.together
with directions how to prepare and use it.
The application was continued through most
of the following night. The poisoned water
exuded from the patient so as- to saturate
the bed on which he lay, and dripped
through it in 'a puddle on the floor. The
youth was cured, and in a few days resumed
work."

Sen atOr Conkling’s Father.
The following from the New York Evens
ing Post is an excellent illustration of the
true method cf doing business:
It is related of Judge Alfred Conkling,
Senator Conkling’s father, that while he Was
a judge of the United States District Court
for the northern district of New York,'he
was able to give a valuable amountof ad-
vertising. worth about 82,000 to the Albany
Journal. He called at the newspaper office
one day, when one of the persons connected
with the Journal said to him, “Judge, the
Journal has reason to be very grateful to
you; and I have to say to you, sir, that the
proprietors of the paper have requested me
to ask you to accept from the company,.as a
slight token of their esteem and thanks, the
present of a suit of clothes.”
Clothes, in those days, were often selected
for presents between friends. J udgc Conk-
ling drew himself up and said very emphat-
ically, “No, sir; no,'si.r; nothing of the kind
can be permitted or thought of. No obliga-
tion has been incurred; none at all, sir; no
expression or any sense of it will be allow-
ed." The Judge then said, “I dropped in
here because I was reminded at my home of
the fact I have not paid for your paper for
two years past, and I came to settle for it
during that time." “But,” was the reply.
“Judge, _you do not owe us anything for
that paper.. We sent it to you free, and
have so entered it.” ‘;No,sir, said the Judge;
“1 thank you for your courtesy; you can,
doubtless, in your position, feel able to send
me your paper, as you say 3 but I, in my
position, cannot afford to accept of that or
any other favor.”

occurred in a New York hospital. Two
Polish women, one married, the other
single, arrived in a European steamer, and
were sent to the hospital. 0n the way
their tickets in some way became changed,
and the married woman was entered as the
single one, and rice some. The husband of
the former went to the hospital frequently
to inquire for his wife, and, although she
died soon after landing, the authorities, sup-
posing the other. was the married woman,
gave encouraging reports _of her condition.
At last she was pronounced cured, and the
husband was sent for, and upon his arrival
the mistake was for the first time discovered.

A butcher loved a tender maid,
To woo her were his designS.
And he sent her copies of gushing 79""
In fact real tenderloins.
The girl alas! he could not'suet, '
' She would love him as a brother, ‘
But when implored to marry, said:
“Tripe, please, and find another."
The butcher still pursued the girl,
His pleas became much bolder ;
The girl at last to find relief
Gave him a cold shoulder.
He knew then that his hopes were vaifi.
But as he left her, said :
“Since you have caused me such distress
I’ll haunch you when I'm dead."
He pined and grew so thin and pale
He felt his end was nigh,
But his woe was rich he did not kn
Whether to liver or die. '
He tried to drink to drown his cares,
And there found no relief,
But daily grew more woebcgone
You never sausage grief.
At last his weary soul found rest,
His sorrows now are o’er;
No fickle maid now troubles him,
PorkIeacher he’s no more.

A Romance of our own Day.
Kansas city Times.
CHAPTER I. D
Pitou was in trouble. His check was wan '
and his eyeinstrelcss. He bit his mousta-
chios nervously and gazed abstractedly out
of the shop window. The sun was shining.
The birds twittered merrily in the trees. The
human tide poured down the street, some
laughing, all happy. But Pitou was sad.
Nobody came to do business with him.
Nanine entered. She was Pitou’s daughter.
She was also sad. There were trace’s of tears
about her.
“Where are you going my child?” asked
Pitou. V
“Nowhere, papa," replied Nanine, “I am
waiting.”
“Waiting? And for whom ?” inquired
Pitou. ,
“Jacques," answered Nanine.
“Ah!” said Pitou.
CHAPTER II.
Jacques was Nanine’s lover. He was also
in love with Julie, the daughter of Pierre.
Jacques was a pleasant gentleman,but he was
poor. He was ambitions to link his destiny
'with a mademoiselle of financial ability.
Jacques stalked gloomy down the boule-
vard. He intended to visit N anine,but Piton’s
shop wore a deserted appearance. The people
passed it by and surged in great swelling
billows into Pierre’s shop. Jacques was quick
to detect this. He was a man of the world.
“Mon alien! I had a narrow escape," he said
to himself as he passed Pitou’s door and en-
tered that of Pierre. ‘
CHAPTER III.
“You have come, exclaimed Julia, as Jac-
ques clasped her to his bosom.
“And you love me ?” asked Jacques,giving
a hasty glance at the crowd of patrons in the
shop.
Ere she could reply, Pitou and Nanine
stood in their presence.
“Monsieur, you are a rascal!” said Pitou.
“You have broken my Nanine’s heart."
“No, Monsieur,” said Jacques, “it is you
who have done this. Look around you.
This is Pierre’s shop. Allis thrift and pros-
perity. Wealth pours in. Customers come
leagues to buy of Pierre. Return to your
own shop and look around you. You see de-r
sorted space, goods unsold, and bankruptcy
staring you in the face. Is it not i"
“Monsieur is right," said Pitou, bowing his
head.
"Leave me with J ulia,” said Jacques.
“Go back to your shop, Advertise in the
papers as Pierre has done. and you may yet
prosper, and N anine may yet find a bus-
5band." ~

t—m-.Next morning he had a
double kalf column in the Times. That week
he sold sixty thousand frances’ worth offiry
goods, and bought a corner lot in Mulkey’s
addition. In two months Nanine married a
plumber, and now lives in a palatial resi-‘
dence, and is the happy mother of twins.
“Ah,” says Pitou, “I did well to follow
J aeque’s advice.”
Pitou’s head is level. “Well, yes. We’
should smile.
Tho thrilling adventure of an
ambitious American Actor.
. Boston Post.
Gallagher is satisfied.
these :—
Gallagher was the president of a dramatic
club and wrote a piece for them. It called
for nine persons, and everybody in the cast
except Gallagher considered that he or she
had the worst part and that it was made so
on purpose. At first they did not proposeto
play, but finally decided to do so, and con-
cocted a plan to punish Gallagher.
'He played the hero, and in the firstact he
said good-bye to his mother and went off to
sea, and when she parted with him she con-
trived to wrench his head and scratch his
nose on a pin fixed in the shoulder of her
dress for that purpose. That eased her mind,
but disturbed his; but he submitted.
In the next act he appeared on shipboard
and‘had to be knocked down by the cruel
captain, who hit him so earnestly with abe-
Iaying pin that it nearly killed him.
And then when he headed the mutiny‘ and
cried to the mutineers, “Follow me!” some-
body :opened a trap and he ignominibusly
fell through it, and got terribly guyed by the
audience. He was awful mad, but determ-
ined to conq in spite of the disaster, and
so came up an went on with the play.
In the third act he was to have a terrible
combat with the villian of the play and whip
him. Mr. HencoopSmyth played the part.
He was satisfied that he had the worst part
in the piece, and that Gallagher made it so
to spite him, Gallagher, as he. clinched him,
cried, “Villian, I’ll beat your life out in two
seconds!” But he didn’t. The villian was
the stronger men, and the way he lathered
Gallagher about the stage was awful. Whgn
it came to the point where the villian watto
cry, “Let me up, I’m crushed l” he had
Gallagher jammed under the table and was
beating him with 'the chair leg, and so of
course his speech and Gallagher’s reply, “I

Before the villian consented to be overcome
he had got the audience to shrieking with
laughter, and had beaten Gallagher black and
blue all over.
Gallagher went home terribly enraged and
the rest. of the company were delighted. The
piece was to be played the next night, but
Gallagher reported himself too ill to appear.
But he sent a substitute.
That substitute was a. prize fighter under
an assumed name. He hugged the mother
so in the parting scene, that he nearly killed
her and. pulled her hair off accidentally. He
threw the cruel captain down the trap. Be
