The wealthiest man in the world is the
Chinese banker Han-Qua of Canton.
He pays taxes upon an estate of 3450.-
000,000, and is estimated to be worth a

beabout fourteen hundred mill'mn dol-
lars.
The largest room in the world, under
one roof, and unbroken by pillars, is at
St. Petersburg. Its dimensions are six
hundred and twenty feet long by one
hundred and fifty feet wide. Twenty
thousand wax tapers are required to
light it.
Explorers have discovered petroleum
in Formosa about twenty miles to the
south of lie-Lung. At the latter place
are the richest mines of bituminious
coal in the Chinese empire. Thus far
the Goverment has refused permits for
the sinking of wells.
It is the custom of really stylish New
York shop girls to carry to their fields of
labor bundles of school books, in order
toconvey the impression that they are
completing their education at some
fashionable institution of learning, in-
stead of working for their daily bread.
Uranium photography is becoming
popular in France. The salts of the
metal are gold, green, and greenish-
brown, and in thin layers produce very
delicate tints. For photographing for-
ests and landscapes they are-superior,
giving pictures that are nearly perfect
reproductions of nature. -

floating island has made its appearance.
It is now of comparatively small area,
though gradually enlarging. For years
ago the island was first seen, and as it
only appears during exceptionally hot
summers, it is locally regarded as the
forerunner of continued fine weather.
Miss Bertha Higgins has been investi-
gating samples of American and foreign
iodide of potassium, as sold in New
York, and finds that none of the speci-
mens is up to the‘ requirements ‘of the
Pharmacopoeia. It is an important mat-
ter, both from a commercial and a medi-
cal point of view, as enormous quantities
of the drug use consumed.
It might be going too far to affirm
that the pro-historic lake dwellers wore
shirts and employed laundresses ; but it
is a fact that there have been found at
Mocrigen bronze studs exactly like the
studs which now adorn the fronts of
men's shirts, and double buttons in no
way distinguishable from the solitaire
used for fastening wristbands.
Wood pavement is to be given up in
London, and the old McAdam system
restored. The former is said to have not
only failed to realize the expected ad-
vantages, but has led, according to Prof.
Tyndall's report, to serious affections of
the eyes and lungs ; that is by continual
watering, the wood became saturated
with street filth, and then, under the in-
fluence of the hot sun gave forth a per-
nicious species of dust. ‘
The San Bernardino (Cal) Indec, says :
Amammoth bee hive has been discovered
in the bosom of the noted peak common-
ly called “Old Paldy." The boss at
work in this wild mountain hive are al-
most innumerable, and they have in
store a gigantic mountain of pure honey,
which is estimated to be 150 feet deep
and 200 feet wide, and contains more
than 500 barrels of the genuine article.
This is enough honey to supply San
Bernardino and Los Augeles counties
for several years.
Perhaps the largest prune orchard in
the world is situated one mile south from
Saratoga, Cal, and contains 16,000 trees.
It is situated on a gentle slope from the
foot of the mountain to the Los Gatos
road, and can be taken in at a glance.
Near by is the famous Rice orchard, con--
taining fruit and nut trees of almost
every known variety; also the O’Banion
and Kent orchard of eighty acres, for
which $110,000 advance has been offered
and refused. I
Paris tradesmen begin to utilize science
for advertising purposes. A late notice
reads: “Tea and coffee contain tannic
acid, the essential part of oak and hem-
loek; milk contains albumen and fibrin
in the same manner as flesh and skin.
Add milk tocofi'ee anda turbidity ensues,
of which each particle is a tannate of

The three words commonly applied, in
the English language, to the members
of the female sex of the animal Man,
vary in their significance, “Female ” is
opprobrious. It refers solely to sex,
and is no more applicable to a woman
than it is to a cat or a hen. It ought to
be expunged entirely from print and
conversation, except in cases and places.
where it is used in contradistinction to
male, to express the sex of homo, which
is spoken or written about. “Lady "
suggests a dainty, delicate creature, pos-
sessed of much superficial propriety and
pride, perhaps also of culture, but it
says nothing of character. Once it was
an honorable title, but now that it is
commonly applied toevery member of
the sex who can more or less follow the
fashion, 'it has become lowered without
elevating those on whom it is so freely
showered. "Woman” is best. The
word. suggests all that is feminine-hu-
man, instead of the feminine only. It
brings to mind the " perfect woman,
nobly planned, to warm, to comfort, to
command" of Wordsworth. It is the true
title of man’s partner in life, the sharer
in his joys and sorrows. Yetif a man
calls his wife “woman ” the result is not
plowing. -

A JAPANESE LEGEND.
There is a romantic love story told of a
monk named Au-Chin, who lived in the
neighborhood of Osaka, and was cele-
brated as a leech as well as noted for
for piety. It happened that the wife of
the principal man of a village near Osaka
fell sick and Au-Chin was asked to visit
her. Her life was saved, though it was
long before she regained health. When
her restoration tohealth was complete,
he announced his intention of taking up
his abode in a distant monastery. To
his dismay he was told by the recovered
woman that where he went she would go
too, as she loved him so much that she
could not live except in his presence.
He reasoned with her upon the wicked-
ness of such a procedure, but she would
not listen. Au-Chin departed secretly,
and hid himself for a while in the Do-
jc-ii Temple devoted to the worship of
the thousand handed Kwaunon. When
he neared the temple be found that a
great bell belonging to the monastery
was lying on the ground, while the bel-
fry was undergoing repairs. He thought
it would be a good place to hide in, so
he asked the brethren at the monastery
to place the bell over him, which they
did.
The infatuated woman, as soon as his
flight became known to her, pursued
him. When she came to the river
Hidaka-gawa she found it had become a
raging torrent, that no boatman would
attempt to cross. Her jealous rage was
so strong that she wished she might
be changed into a dragon, that she might
swim the swollen river. She becamea
dragon, and passed under the raging
flood. When she came to the temple of
Do-jo-ji she searched everywhere with-
out fluding the’monk, and thought it
might be possible that he had taken
refuge under the bell. As it was so
heavy and she could not overturn it she
coiled herself about it and lashed it so
furiously with her tail that it became red
hot, and when the monks from the mon-
astery came to bring the prisoner food
the next day, they found nothing but a
mass of charred bones to tell that their
brother had ever been there. This story
has been dramatized, and is told in song
and prose. There is no temple or shrine
throughout the length and breadth of
Japan that has not attached to it some
story of fabulous origin.
WHAT THE nrooxvs FACE TELLS.
The moon’s face, says Prof. Proctor,
tells us of a remote youth—a time of
fiery activity, when volcanic action even
more effective (though not probably
more energetic) than any which has ever
taken place on this globe, upheaved the
moon’s, crust. But so soon as we con-
sider carefully the features of her surface
we see that there must surely have been
three well marked ears of vulcanian 'ac-
tivity. Look at the multitudinous cra-
ters, for example, around the metropoli-
tancrater Tycho. They tell usof cen-
tury after century of volcanic distur-
bance~but they tells us more. They
mark a, surface which varies intexture,
and therefore in light-reflecting power in
such a way as to show that'the variations
were produced long before the volcanic
action began by which the craters were
formed. For the variations of texture
are such as to mark a. series of streaks—
some of them two thousand or three
thousand miles in length, and many
’ miles in breadth, extending radially from
Tycho. Craters lie indifi'erently on these
bright streaks and on the intervening
darker spaces, and some craters can be
seen which lie right across a bright
streak with parts of their ring on the
darker regions on both sides of the
streak. Of course, this proves that the
craters were formed long after the great
streaks. When the streaked surface was
formed, it must have been tolerably
smooth; for we see the streaks best un-
der a full illumination, and there is no
sign of any difference of elevation be-
tween them and the darker ground all
around; they are neither long ridges
nor long valleys, but mere surface mark-
ings. Yet they must have been formed
by mighty vulcanian disturbance, such,
indeed, as we may be certain went on at
the early stage of the moon's .history to
which these radiating streaks must be
referred. It seems clear that as Nasmith
has illustrated by experiment, they be-
'ong to that stage of the moon’s history
when her still hot and plastic crust
parted with its heat more rapidly than
the nucleus of the planet, and so, con-
tracting more quickly, was rent by the
resistance of the internal matter, which,
still hot and molten, flowed into the:
rents and spreading, formed the long,
broad streaks of brighter suface.
WOBKMEN IN CENTRAL DIEXICO.
A carpenter in Central Mexico earns
from sixty to seventy-five cents a day; a
mason the same ; a common day laborer
from tWenty-five to fifty cents; a farm
laborer who works by the month, from
two to five dollars a month and “found.”
They work from daylight to sunset, with
half an hour at nine o’clock and again at
three, for breakfast .and supper. These
hours are very long; but they take it
easy, stopping every little while to
smoke their cigarros, and accomplishing
less than _an American laborer will in six
or seven hours’ work. Their earnings .
are barely suficient to keep them in food
and clothes of the coarsest kind, with an
occasional “ real ” over for the bull fight
at Pulke, but they are the happiest
people on the face of the earth.
_‘O—‘Q
ENGLISH MANNERS A"! TABLE.
No guest ever passes a plate or serves
anything; the servant does all that.
Soup is taken from the side of the spoon,
noiselessly. Soup and fish are not par-
taken of the second time; if there is a
joint, and the host carves, it is proper to
ask for a second cut. Bread is passed by
the servant, and must be broken, never
cut. It is considered gauche to be un~
decided whether one will take clear soup
or thick soup; decide quickly. In re-
fusing wine simply say, “Thanks," or
better, “ Thank you." The servants
retire after handing the dessert, when
the party at oncelaunches in politics and
gossip, with now and then (not often,
alas!) a bit of gay badinage, or “chafi‘,”
until the lady of the house gives the
signal, and the ladies retire to the draw-
ing-room. Toasts and taking wine with
the people have gone out of fashion, and
the charms of the drawing-room have so
far increase 1 in the last decade that it is
only the more confirmed two-bottle men
who “linger long across the walnuts and
the wine,.” thejucnesse doree usually pre-
