I saw up at St. Charles the other day
a new thing in stock cars, which is as
much an improvement over the old kind
as the drawing coach is over the emi¬

not have designed a more satisfactory
convenience for tho brute creation, and
with this new idea to begin, tho accom¬
modation of traveling stock will rapidly
advance to the comfortable stage. Cattle
and horses have always suffered tortures
in box cars, and I think every humane
man will rejoice to see endeavors made
to assist their condition on a journey.
These cars are modeled after the ordinary

It Is a well known fact that no
or English servant can find a place with
her own country people after she
lived in an American family. Good
vants are rare in every country, and
are so rare here that a lady, when
gets one, generally turns to spoiling
as the only means of keeping her.
bad servant is spoiled in the hope of
wheedling her into doing better. One
mistress who pays the modest sum of $25
a month for her cook says that tho morn¬
ing after she has given a dinner party
she presents this autocrat of the dinner
table with $1.
Another consults tho convenience of
her cook always before inviting her
guests. Tho demand to go out from one
to three times a week is a claim never
questioned bnt by the tho most who obdurate of mis¬
tresses, servant asks this here
would only have a holiday once a month
in England and the privilege of going to
church once every Sunday. In France
the conditions are the same. In this
country there must be trouble until some
of the women who ore dSliged to earn a
living are willing to become servants and
submit to being called by their right
name, and not consider that, if they are
“helps,” they have equal rights with
their mistresses. Then, too, the mis¬
tresses must learn how to treat their ser¬
vants with perfect kindness and still
without the familiarity that breeds con¬
tempt. —New York Press.

Garnet Ledges In Alaska.
The extensive garnet ledges at Fort
Wrangell are an inexhaustible source of
beautiful and ornamental curiosities. The
cropping of the ledge is about ten feet
wide, Lae, stand standing perpendicularly and run¬
ning northeast and southwest several
miles in length; the depth of it no man
has ever found out. The rock is of a
mica Blate formation, and contains from
two to four dozen garnets to the cubic
foot. The gems are regular polygons,
beautiful in color, and when’ fresh from
the mines have a dashing and brilliant
luster; but when exposed for a time
they become dull and opaque. The
crystal varies in dimensions from the
size of a pea to that of a hen’s egg, and
to the novice are quite fascinating and
have the appearance of much value for
ornamental and other purposes.
The lapidaries, however, have failed to
utilize them for any purpose whatever,
except as a curio and to demonstrate tho
certainty of the unerring law of nature
which governs every phenomenon. Every
piano of the polygon is of the same form;
every angle of tho same degree, and
every gem is the equal and like of its
fellow. Tho mining and shipment of
this rock has become quite a business.
It is worth $29 per ton on the wharf at
Fort WrangelJ, and is shipped to all
parts of the country to fill the cabinets
of the wealthy and the collections in
public institutions.—Detroit Free Press.
