AnArab widow who has a chance to
marry again visits her first husband’s
grave the night before the second mar-

prays him not to be offended at her for
taking another husband. But, as a
guarantee against any failure of her
prayers to appease the deceased, she
takes along with her a donkey laden
with water and saturates the grave, a
proceeding which is calculated to keep
the dead husband cool under the most
aggravating circumstances.

are very properly furnished with smok-
ing tobacco, because smoking enables
them to endure severer fatigue upon
small nutrition and with greater alacrity
and confidence than would otherwise be

WEAR AND Th‘AR OF SHIPS.
If a vessel is strictly first class, and is
well cared for, she will hold her rating
twelve years. Then she must be care-
fully examined, and if found in good
condition her rating may be contiuned
four years longer. But you will notice
before theend of the twelve years that
the captain don’t carry on sail as he did
the first trip. Even with a fair gale the
topgallant-sails come in, and the main-
sail will possibly be clewed up. If the
ship has aged pretty fast, as she will un-
der a captain disposed to drive her, the
chances are that the ambitious captain
gets out of her into a new ship again.
A new man takes the old ship, and she
drops out of the trade to ’Frisco or
China, and carries guano or coal. When
a ship has carried cargo for fifteen years,
even under favorable circumstances, she
is an old ship. She is like an overworked
man, she totters on her way. In a heavy
sea she is longer rising on the swells, for
she has somehow lost her buoyancy.
Last of all she goes into the lumber
trade, and there wallows her way from
port to port, until some day her bones
are laid upon a lee-shore, or she fails to
rise when a heavy wave strikes her.

Sugar cane grgws during-about five
and a half months. It makes its ap-
pearance say on the lat of April, and by
the 15th of September it has done reach-
ing upward. In that time it grows or
ought to grow 12 feet, counting the
white joints and the top flag or tuft.
On the 1st Of July it is some 4 feet high,
so that from then until the 15th of Sep-
tember it grows 96 inches. During
August, however, it reaches the largest
rate of increase, the ordinary growth
during that month under favorable con-
ditions being .40 inches. August is
knoWn as the “growing month.”
It is then that cultivation is over and
ground thoroughly shaded by the foliage.
It is then that the dailyfishowers stimu-

Referring to our adv. of some time ago.
and in response to the urgent request of
the thousands of farmers and others who
have asked it, we have concluded and now
announce that for a short time—as we find
hardware jabbing trade too backward
about taking in and carrying stock sufli-
cicnt to supply the demands of the retail
hardware trade and the thousands who
want our posts—to give all the trade dis-
counts named to the retail hardware
dealers and to the public, and to supply
them with the gooos direct, until such time
as the jobbcrs take into the channel laid
out by us, as shown by our circular and
price list. And in order to manage this
matter and also the matter of the agents’
commission named in our circular, and
copyright clause, we have concluded for
the resent to do all the business east of
the ocky Mountains at the Chicago office.

LONDON’S FIRST PLAY-HOUSES.
The building of a regular play-house
in London dates from- 1570, or therea-
bouts. Before the year 1550 the Black-
friurs and Whitefriars Theatres were in
existence as “private houses." These
together with the Theatre and the Our-
tain, both in Shoreditch, the Fortune,
built by Peter Street, a carpenter, for
Edward Alleyn and Philip Henslowe
(1600), in Cripple Gate Without, and the
Red Bull, in Aylesbury street, Clerken-
well, are the earliest houses. In 1574
Queen Elizabeth, ever a warm patron of
the drama, licensed James Burbadge and
four others, servants to the Earl of Lei-
cester, to exhibit all kinds of stage plays
“ as well for the recreation of her loving
subjects as her own solace and pleasure
when she should think good to see them. "
Ejected from the city, Burbadge’s troupe
settled within the Blackfriars precincts,
on a spot which lies between Apothe-
caries' Hall and the southwestern corner
of St. Anne's (Blackfriars) churchyard.
Here, in 1586, the company was joined
by Shakespeare, then twenty-two years
old. Within three years he was assigned
one-sixteenth as his share of the Black-
n-iars property. A Winter house from
the beginning—that is to say, a house
covered with a roof, and adapted for arti-
ficial lighting—the Blackh'inr! Was ex-
tensively repaired in 1596. The then
nine partners had petitioned the Privy
Council for its concurrent enlargement;
but the authorities, dannted by the cor-
poration’s opposition, refused this fur-
ther favor. Shakespeare then lived at
Bankside, near Bear Gardens.

The Corioloil the Norwegmn' farmer’s
ads. 9. Very “pretending vehicle, con-
sisting of a narrow seat supported on a
wooden frame by two crosssz of wood
which are fixed in the shafts and serve as
rude springs. On this tiny seat the soli-
tary traveler perches himself, his feet.
stretched out in front of him on the floor
of the gig, or planted in two small rests
at some depth below the seat. Behind
the gig is a horizontal board, on which
the traveler's small box or portmanteau
is deposited. and where the post-boy
(Skydsgut) has to accommodate himself.
In addition to this cariole proper, or
single gig, there is a double one, (the
Reisekjaerre,) often used by traveling
pairs. But the cariole is the earlier and
better institution. Two persons with
the necessary quantity of luggage are
quite weight enough to be behind One of
the small Norwegian horses on a road
which is pretty certain to be rough in
places and to have some sharp declivi-
ties. The cariole seems, too, by far the
more appropriate vehicle for this wild
and solitary country. It is a kind of
land canoe, by means of which one may
easily part company with “the madding
crow" and penetrate into the perfect
seclusion of primeval nature. For the
postboy is, as a rule, given to silence
~and close attention to his horse, and, be-
ing out of sight, is readily forgotten.
To one who finds a keen delight in now
and then getting rid of customary as-
sociations and immersing his mind in
wholly new surroundings hardly any-
thing can be better than jogging along
in a cariole on a fine Summer day. One
soon gets used to the odd bobbing move-
ment of the little vehicle.

EATING FRUIT.
One of the best evidences that the 1m-
erican people of this generation live bet-
ter than their fathers did is found in the
steady andrapid growth of trade in tropi-
cal frnits. It is not many years since
the great majority of people scarcely
knew what a banana was, and considered
oranges and lemons as luxuries to be
afforded only in sickness or on great oc-
casions. Now, not only these, but other
tropical fruits, are bought and eaten al-
most as generally and freely as apples,
and the consumption of melons, peaches,
pears, plums and berries is On the same
universal and extensive scale. This is a
change which tends not only to gratify
the taste, but to promote health, which
is the foundation of human happiness,
and is of advantage to everybody. There
is little danger that any community will
spend too much money for ripe and
sound fruit. '

Advice to Mothers.
Are you disturbed at night and broken
of your rest by a sick child suffering and
crying with pain of cutting teeth? It so,
send at once and get a bottle of Mrs.
Winslow‘s Soothing Syrup for Children
Teething. Its value is incalculable. It
will relieve the poor little sufferer imme-
diately. Depend upon it, mothers, there
is no mistake about it. It cures dysentery
and diarrhoea, regulates the stomach and
bowels, cures wmd colic, softens the
gums, reduces the inflamation, and gives
tone and energy to the whole system.
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup for Chil-
dren Teething is pleasant to the taste, and
is the prescription of one of the oldest and
best female nurses and physicians in the
United States, and is for sale by all drug-
gists throughout the world. Price 25
cents a‘ bottle. 1y42

HOW BEPULSIVE
Is bad breath, and yet how many otherwise
attractive, polite, and particular people afflict
their friends with the foul odor of their breath.
, If there was no remed for this, it might excite
our sympathy, but as here is no need of hav-
ing a foul breath, it is an unpardonable breach
of good manners to obtrude such an offence on
good society. ,
Foul breath arises from disordered digestion
which can be corrected by using Sulphur
Bitters, and the. result will be a pure, sweet
breath. 3143

THE nlsnorues'r PARTNER.
One of the most frequent and deplora-
ble agents of sudden min is the dishonest
partner. No business can be managed
without mutual confidence between those
who conduct it; and though, when we
_ hear that a commercial man has brought
himself within! reach of the law, we are
inclined to doubt if his partner can have
been unaware of his malpractices, yet it
must be obvious that the dishonesty of
one partuenutoo often arises from the
unsuspiciou'sf ' 'mplicity of the other.
"There are feveiliz'iristanccs in which no
3; (flint offaligheityivill save a man from
aflIEW'iSDS bf a roguish partner. ‘The
fohompg is a very common case: A
anij being partners, Adios, and his'son
succeeds to his share of. the business.
So long as A was alive the speculative
tendencies of B were kept in check; but
young A has not , the same experience as
his father :; he has learned to respect B ;
he‘looks tohim for guidance; and if B
has made up his mind to extend the
business of the .firm by new methods,
now that he is head partner, the junior
partner will generally be a more tool in
his hands. . ,If young A be more fond of
pleasure than business he will of course
be even less than a tool—a mere cipher,
and B will be left. to manage matters as
pleases, until besucceeds in his schemes,
and ‘Iproposes to buy A out of the busi-
ness’;ioy'ffi_iil_s and brings A to poverty
‘7'" ‘ ,It'is acruel thing thatif
‘B has ab‘ piled, A will' have to bear the
entire brunt of creditors' wrath, and per-
haps be criminally punished for his inno-
cence. But partners have learned this
howany nine man can assume responsi-
bilities without ascertaining the nature'
and extent of them. It is certainly not.
for the public interest that the sudden
run of an honest partner should be
pleaded in extenuation for his ignorance
or carelessness. '
t‘Hello,” said the editor to the obse-
qmous individual who daily sanntered
into the sanctum to occupy the best
chair and confiscate the exchanges.
‘Why are you a different sort of a gun
rum what I am?" “I don’t know, I am
ure,” grinned the visitor. “Because I
am rifled and you are a smooth bore."
