BIG PANORAMAS. Painting Scenery on an Im¬ mense Scale. Many Men at Work on the uieat Circular Canvas. “As * wanted to sec how pano¬ ramas are made,’’writes a press corres¬ pondent of the Picayune, “I went to the spot were Philpot is at work, up by the place de la Itastilc. The place Is in disorder, the space between can¬ vas and spot where the public will stand being crowded with scaffoldings, ladders nud barrels. -“One painter, as high up as the fourth story of a house, was making sky by laying on large daubs of blue; another was whitewashing buildings; lower down, on the first and second landings, were two collaboratenrs of Philpot, MAI. Du Paty and Sabattier, who were painting in the characters. I was as nothing standing before the immense circular canvas on which so mauy thousand persons were pencilled, though they have not yet received the baptism of paint brush. “When the plan of my panorama is definitely decided on." said Philpot, “I ro in search of all jkissible informa¬ tion, for later it becomes of great as" listance. If the subject is one that takes place in the present time, 1 leave town with my two collaborators and proceed to the very spot, where we take views of the place as carefully as though we were making a picture. If .he action passes in olden limes, as it iocs in the panorama now being painted, we go to the Carnavalet Mu¬ seum or to the National library to tonsnlt engravings and books of the period. After this, dresses are pro- ;ured and placed on models in my studio. The first thing is to make a series of small pictures containing all .he scenes that are to form the pan- >rania. That done, a small panorama is constructed, about one-tenth the size of the real panorama, and this is, so to speak, the model. The small panorama being finished in all its details, is photographed in parcels, which operations are done in llic studio, and then the artists carry their necessary working materials to the place where the panorama is to be constructed, where the virgin canvas is ready. This one contains 5850 square feet, and if we recommenced the designs already executed on a small scale on th : s canvas we should not be ready in several years. What we do is this: The photographic stereotypes arc put iu a magic lautern, which pro¬ jects them on tlie canvas to the re¬ quired size of the real composition. “Before this, however, the canvas has been divided into squares like on a checker board, and the stereotype plates correspond exactly with these divisions. A counter-drawing of the composition is afterwards made, 60 you sec the matter is very simple. The task of producing a panorama is thus rendered easy, ami what could not be done in less than a year without pho¬ tography, is designed within a fort¬ night. The design finished,ouch pain¬ ter begins his task and finishes it with¬ out ceasing. One man paints the sky, exactly similar to that of the small panorama, another paints the houses with the “The panorama once painted iu its entirety, 1 go over it again completely, and give it finishing touches, so that the public will not see that it lias not been done by one hand. The canvas is held in place by hooks at the top, weights being suspended to the bottom so as to prevent any creases. The perspective is obtained first of all on the small panorama, and it is then faithfully reproduced on the large canvas; and what adds to the illusion is that the public, at a certain distance from the canvas, do not know where it commences or where it finishes. The space where the scaffolding js now placed, and which is 45 feet wide, will be filled up with real objects that will stretch from the public to the canvas without any cessation, ami in¬ stead of the panorama having a gilded frame like pictures, it will have a framework of natural a tides. The illusion is thus.complete, the more so as the public is i:i the shade under velum, while the canvas has a full, almost blinding light thrown on it. Origin of the Term “Flu Money.” Fin money is a lady's allowance of money for her own personal expendi¬ ture. Long af:er the invention of pins, in the fourteenth century the maker was allowed to sell them in open shop only on the 1st and 2d of January. It was then tiiat the court ladies and city dames flocked to the depots to buy them, having been tirst provided with pin money by their hus¬ bands. When the pins became cheap and common, the ladies spent their al¬ lowances on other fancies, but the term pin money remained in vogue.— [Dry Goods Chronicle. .18 Parlor Variety Is Better.

COHN FLAVORRD BY THE SOIL- hero is a groat difference in the nveotness of the same kind of corn when grown on different kinds of soil. Tliis is usually attributed to admixture of seed, but there is good reason to l>e- licve that tho cause lies deejier than ibis. There is probably a variation in plants depending largely on wliat plant food lhey receive.

All the farm animals worth raising arc voracious feeders, and the duck especially will eat her own head off s veral times over if not managed with the best economy. But there is money in docks if tbev are properly reared, A swampy meadow is the best run for ducks. They can be reared without any swimming place to speak of. They may he allowed to run out all the year except at laying time; then they should be shut up at night, being let out in the morning as soon as their eggs arc laid. They lay about day¬ light. They find their own feed dur¬ ing the day all summer, hut should lie fed some grain when they come in at night. Put the eggs under a hen to hatch, nine to a nest. Feed the ducklings on boiled cornmeal and oatmeal, witli chopped onions and green food, every two hours, and plenty of clean water to drink. A duck is a most producing machine, and this must be kept in mind. A pair of fat, young roast ducks, three, months old, is a feast for the gods. A duck at this age will weigh four pounds, and should then be York Herald. LIKES AND DISLIKES OF BEKS. A lady reader writing from West- field, N. J., who is seldom stung by bees, while a farm laborer in her em¬ ploy cannot go near the hives without being badly stung, asks if we think it “true that bees have their likes and dis¬ likes?” There is no doubt that the exhalations from sortie persons are of¬ fensive to l ces and a cause of at- tack by them, when other per¬ sons might come equally near their hives without exciting their animosity in the least. For such persons to un¬ dertake to keep bee9 would be not only unpleasant but unprofitable. Their numbers, however, are not great, and quite as often the attacks of bees are caused by the fear many persons have of them and by their striking at the bees and dodging them, when if they quietly came about the hives without making any quick or hostile motions they would be unmolested. It is said that nervous people and such as are addicted to the uso of to¬ bacco and liquor never make success¬ ful bee-keepers. To some persons the venom of the bee is a serious poison. Such persons, of course, had better not keep bees. Generally speaking, frequent stings are the result of the nervous condition of the individual. Such a one by learning to control tho nerves may become a successful bee- keeper.— [New York World. EAST WALKING FOR HOUSE WORK. Most horses can bo trained to a more than ordinarily fast walk. One good way is to bo quick and wide awake yourself. The horse (and hired man) soon becomes considcrab'y like his master. Work-horses, I think, can be trained to walk faster if they aro never driven off from a walk during the working season. Many a time coming back from market, fanners have overtaken me and went by, slap- bang, only to be overtaken themselves by a fast-walking team before they reached the top of file next hill. When they s.oppcd (rotting tlicit' horses slacked up to about half the rate of speed that mine kept steadily. 1 have always thought I got around just as quickly in the long run, and with a saving of horseflesh and wag¬ ons, by not trotting a step when doing heavy teaming; that is, where the horses arc trained to wa’k fast and know tiiat is (he only gait required of them. It is called twelve miles from my house to Akron. The last three teams I liad would walk it from three hours to three hours and ten minutes, coming home. Going required thirty to sixty minutes more, ou account of steep hills. This when they went over the name foa l nearly every day in the month. At homo on the farm we never work the horses more than eight to ten lionr* a day, and for this length of time they will keep pretty well up toward the four-mile-an-hour gait when draw¬ ing many of oar tools. I saw men lust moving last summer behind a slow, moping horse, cultivating corn and potatoos. My man, behind a free- walking horse, easily cultivated seven acres of our narrow rows one way in a day of about nine hours. The other man will got over about three acres. Which do you choose ? The fast walk¬ ing would throw dirt over the little plants, you say. No, we have on pur¬ pose teeth so narrow that they cannot throw dirt, so as to accomplish twice as much in a day. Another good plan, after you get your horses trained to walk fast, is to never hold them in, on cultivator or plough—or any other tool unless it be necessary—let them work at a natural o a **’ *’• P ro 'okes me to see a man make a free-walkiug horse drag Bim along bj the reins, I will not all « w m )' to be discouraged.

A Queer Chicago Custom. A red-faced young man with short trousers, a corn-cob pipe and a long whip rushed excitedly into the Centra! Police Station. ‘Say, mister,” lie ejacu ated, addressing Desk Sergeant Codman, “I hitched up my buggy outside tiie City Ilall a short time ago, but when I got back after doing my business I found it gone.” “Where do you come from?” asked Mr. Codman. “Palos,” was the reply. “Well, your best chance is to hang around, keep quiet and wait for de¬ velopments. A few hours later the young man turned up again. “I swow, if you wern’t right,” lie exclaimed entluuias- ticnllv, “I just went round the corner,” and when I came back I found my rig hitched up just where I left it.” “That’s a regular daily occurrence,” said Mr. Codman. “Frequently peo¬ ple who are in a hurry and have a good deal of territory to cover calmly walk up to some rig which they see is not being watched, unhitch it, drive round town, finish their business and then take the first favorable oppor¬ tunity to replace it.

A solid block of poplar wood is shaped on the out¬ side with draw-knives, and the cavity for the foot is gouged oat with pe¬ culiarly shaped instruments.” “Arc they warm and light?” “Yes, more so than leather.

Among the Chinese no relics are more valuable than the boots that have been worn by a magistrate.

A farmer’s wife living near Dover, N. J., broke a duck egg in a frying pan a few days ago, when out rolled an egg of smaller size. The larger egg was of ordinary size, and con¬ tained a perfect yolk. The inner egg was about one and one-half inches long, with a perfect shell and normal in every way.

The virtu's of the kola nut have been recognized on the west coast of Africa from time immemorial, as cementing a mystic bond of friend¬ ship between trioe3 and individuals.

The Chinook Jargon, “Volapuk lias a vigorous rival in the Chinook jargon, which is the me¬ dium of communication between about fifty tribes who would otherwise be utterly unable to understand one an¬ other.” Tliis was said in the Richelieu a few evenings ago by Dr. C.

She has 1,200 freshmen nnd 4,000 students in all the classes and specialties.
