A new variety of woman’s saddle has made its appearance in England. The pummels are much wider than those of ohl. Much greater pressure is given to the thigh, and a surer and easier seat Is said to result from it. Many women in the linbitof following the hounds Iinve testified to die ad vantage of the ohange. The saddle weighs no more than one of the old style. MORE THAN SUIU’KISED. Mrs. Eleznbeth Akers Allen once re lated that the words of her song “Rock Me to Sleep, Mother,” Imd been set to musio long before she had ever heard them sung, nnd that the ilrst time she did hear the tune was from the lips of a small street gamin. In astonish ment she stopped short to look at him, when he broke the spell from switch ing off from the line, “No other wor ship nliidgs or endures,” to blurt out, “What lit-—are you staring at?” DRIOBT CHILDREN.

A study of tlie nationalities repre sented in the immigration to this country shows that a littlo moro than 00 per cent, of tho wholo num ber have come from Protestant countries, and if wo should look closely into the matter wo should find that tho two. gle.it political parties in tho United States absorb equal proportions of tho total volume of immigration.

It is indeed a melancholy fact that many comparatively well to do Ameri can families fall into tho habit of pinch ing the stomach in order that the back may riot in jmrplo and fine linen. It was told recently of a family who lived in a brownstone front and made a groat show that they invariably sat down to half rations at their meals. The family consisted of seven, while the butcher’s nnd grocer’s bills showed that comfort able provision was made for not moro than four porsons. The consequence? Why, that they were always quarreling and fighting of course, tho result of flaccid nerves and impoverished blood. Tho poor, ill paid slave who used to live with them and do tho work of two slaves told this tale out of school after her happy emancipation. “Why, bless yer heart, ma’am,” she said to her new mistress, who was helping her to make the beds in the modest flat, “savin yer prisence, they used to cut the bread that thin that yon could seo through it, and then count tho slices. They’d lock up the loaf after, and yb’d git no more, even if yon was starvin after a hard day’s washin or liousccleanin. An, wusscr nor that,” she continued indig nantly, “they was that inane that they’d sneak the bit o’ butther of? o’ tho table and put on tho molasses when they see me a-comin.” Living on these lines, who among us could riot nfford to live (B in a brownstone mansion?-—New York News. Superstition of tho Cuckoo. In n celebrated French vomanco of the Thirteenth century, published by Meon, M. Ren art and hiswifo hoar tho cuckoo’s notos early in tho morning as they lie awake, talking and planning what they will do and bo in the futuro that lies before them. M. Renart thinks ho would like to know how many years will be given him in which to enjoy life, so he implores tho cuckoo to toll him. “Cuckoo, tell mo truth, how many years have 1 to live? 1 wish very much to know, cuckoo.” Tho cuckoo answered promptly thirteen times. Then M. Renart turns to his wife and embraces her. “Did you hear?” ho asks. “Sir,” said Mme. Renart, being a dutiful wife and very respectful to her lord and* master, “Sir, 1 hoard gladly, and de mand you will kiss me.” “Danm,” said he, “l am quite rejoiced.”—All the Year Round. IIU First uml Lust Time. Romanelli, having heard wonders told of tho skating rink, determined to go there. Tho sight of bo many youlig ladies and gentlemen gliding around in all directions so gracefully and in such apparent safety led him to believe that Bleating was tho easiest and most natural thing in tjie world. He suddenly made up his mind, and after ordering a pairbf roller skates ho took a 6tep^fdr ward nild —bang—he dropped full> length on the floor. Tho manager ran to pick him up. “Is this tho first time you have put on tho skates?” “No, sir; tho last!” growled Romanelli. T^Nano Rosso. Settle, il Mooted Point.

The vjmilla bean, which gives our most popular and delicate flavor for chocolajte and confectionery, cakes and other choice edibles, is the prod uct of ai species of orchids, the name coming from the Spanish vainilla, meaning a small pod. There ore in fact several species of the plant which givo a bean of more or less value, though that which is most prized, and which yields the standard vanilla of commerce, is the vanilla planifolia, a native qf Mexico, hut which is .now cultivated in several tropical countries. As it requires hot weather and a good deal of it, this orchid (cannot bo domesticated in temperate regions. The plant still grows naturally in Mexico, and is also cultivated from cuttings, for which purpose slips from three to five feet in length are employed. These ore sunk in the earth to the depth of a foot, the upper part being trained to some support. Mexicans plant tho slip at the root of a small tree, to which the tendrils cling, but in othof countries a rude trollis is tho moro general sup port. Tho cuttings take root within n month, hut they do not bear fruit till throe yonrs of ago, after which they contimio to produco for thirty years or more. The pods grow to a length of from six to twelve inches, nnd are about half an inch in diame ter. They reach full sizo in n month after formation, but require some months for viponing. When properly riponed (which is shown by tho crocking of the pod between the fingers), they are cut off separately, placed in a heap un der a tshedliko shelter till they begin to shrivol, after which they are sub jected, to a swouting and fermenting process, which develops tho odor *f the boon. Tho sweatiug is done by exposuro to tho hot sun or to arti ficial heat Lf 140 degs. during tho day, and inclosing in an airtight box through tho night. This can bo accomplished in a day oi’ two, giving tho fine brown color desirable in tho pods, after which they di e dri- 1 in the sun for about two months. For marketing they are tied up in packets of uniform length nnd sizo. Tho manixmlation somewhat in different locali- ;t the essential purpose re mains tho same.—Newton Norton in Good Housekeeping.

The amount of money often ex pended by tho wealthy Romans on their sumptuous meals appears fabu lous. Vitellius is said to have spent as much ns 400 sestertia (about £4,228 of our money) on his daily supper, and the celebrated feast to which he invited his brother cost no less than 4640,3501 It consisted of 2,000 differ ent dishes of fish and 7,000 of fowls, with other equally numerous meats. His daily food was of the most rare and exquisite nature—the deserts of Lybia, the shores of Spain, the wa ters of the Carpathian sea, nnd even tho coasts mid forests of Britain, wero diligently searched for dainties to supply his table, and had ho reigned long he would, observes Jo sephus, liavo exhausted tho great op ulence of the Roman empire. By tlio vray, we wonder if theso happy go lucky Romans over suf fered much from indigestion.
