“ Justice To All- Malice For None.”
A writer in Harper's Magazine informs
us that in Chili there are no stoves or
fireplaces, and that millionaires sit
around in cold palaces with their wraps
on. No wonder that country is called
Chili.

ing the word “trust" on the back of thc

The New Y'ork Graphic informs us
that “Jesus Waldonado, a ranchman, is
dead at Vera Cruz, Mexico, at the un¬
j | doubted age of 153 years Among the
pall-bearers at his funeral were three
sons, aged 140, 120 and 109 years. They
were white haired, but strong and
hearty.”
Mr. W. J. Holland, the naturalist of
thc United States eclipse expedition to
Japan, writes to the Pittsburg Dispatch
to say that “the population of Japan is
35,000,000. Investigations made by the
writer lead him to believe that there are
in Japan, for every man, woman and
child, at least 1,000,000 fleas. Thc num¬
ber of fleas in Japan is, therefore,
3-5,000,000,000,900, and their aggregate
weight is 175 tons.”
The nie Americans Americans livin? living in in Paris 1 ans held nckl a a
meeting on thc evening of the day when
some of them had gone to decorate La
fayette’s grave, and passed resolutions to
the effect that a proper return for the
gift of Bartholdis stature .. would he a
statue of Washington, or of Washington
and Lafavette.to be offered to the French
people and to be set up in Paris April
30, 1889, thc centennial of the day when,
thanks to the assistance given by France
and Lafayette, our first President took
the oath of office.
A speaker before the Association for
the Advancement of Science gave a criti¬
cism upon American living. He said:
“To the rule that those who most need
to economize buy the cheapest food, thc
dietary practices of the people of the
I Fnited States evince marked c*rep
tions, in that many, ’even among tliosc
who desire to economize, use needlessly
expensive kinds of food. They too often
endeavor to make their diet attractive by
paying high prices in the market rather
than by skillful cooking and tasteful
serving at home.”
Mr. ( O'B. Cowardin, the editor of
the Richmond (Va.) Dispatch , has re .
ceived from the United States Govern .
ment $3, wages due him as ‘‘No. ft,’ ,
The Richmond State explains tliut some
time ago there was a vessel in distress off
Cobh's Island. The captain of the life
station ordered out a life-boat, but he
needed one man to complete the crew.
His call for volunteers was answered by
Mr. C'owardin, who performed tlie*duty
of “No. 5,” and was known as “No 5.”
As “No. 5" knew what he was about,
the ship was reached and saved.
Dr. Felix L. Oswald declares, in tin
North American Iteriew , that “in sixteen
different European languages the word
cold has btcome a synonym of an affec
lion which the absolutely conclusive evi
dcuce of physiobgieal facts proves to be
a result of vitiated warm indoor air, and
to he curable by cold outdoor air.” Hc j
uses one of the sixteen languages with
great . force , to , plead for cold , , air and , , |
plenty of it, and his observations ought j
straightway to be translated into the
other fifteen.
Efforts . for . special . , education . in agn

Between French Guiana and Brazil is
a region of 400,000 square mile*, contain¬
ing 00,000 inhabitants, whose |o-se ao:i
has been contested for two hundred years.
France claims it on one hand, Brazil on j
the other, and all because of an nicotic
prehensiblc clause in the treaty of
Utrecht. Neither France nor Brazil lw
ever dreamed of taking possession of this i
territory, either by force or by arbitra
tion of a friendly nation. The principal

soft wind was blowing, Idle dav was
favorable fora large haul. All the fislict
men of the village were gathered to
..ier, the nets and oars were put into
the boats, the sails spread wide, and thc
little fleet sailed far out into the broad,
beautiful sea. Katie stood ou the shore
long ending greetings to her sweetheart as
a< his boat was in sight. Then she
went She home, smiling happily to herself,
had much to do. After she had
seen to her old father, who sat quietly in

went about her work, llow it flew

th first blow strong against the sails:

'The men were forced to take in sails,
and trust wholly to the oars. It grew
dark, and thc sea lifted itseif restlessly
into huge, far rolling waves. Then the
storm broke loo*e with wild force; it
howled ami lashed thc sea till it reared
in short, foam-rapped waves. The men
rowed with all their mijifLt; the shore
could not be faraway, though it was not
visible in the darkness. Ahead of all the
others shot UrMoph’s boat; close behind
him was Lars’s. It seemed as if the two
were running a race for the safety of thc
shore. A waive seized Cristoph s boat,
lifted it high, and flung it with its
