own variety of Oils typical character, but
in nil it* bade h mon or ten pereistent,
though nny one particular trait, even the
most marked, may be wanting or actually
replaced by ita exact oppo.ii Still,
viewing tlio family Idlotyncrtuie* aa a
.♦hole, each member Is pretty sun to
possess a vary oonsidwabls number of
peculiarities 'mors or less in common
with ail the remainder. This, Jana may
be passionate, while Emily la sulky; Dick
may be a spendthrift, while Thomas is a
miser. But Jane and Diok are both hu
morous, Emily and Thomas both musical,
Thomas and Diok both sensitive, Emily
and Jane both sentimental, and all four
alike satirical and alike fond of pets and
animals. Look at the persistent Tenby
Ionian tono in Charles and Alfred Tenny-
‘son; look at the parodying power of the
two Smiths in “Rejected- Addressee;”
look at the usreoci, the Rossettis, the
Hemckels, and then say whether even
minute touches of taste and sentiment do
not come out alike in brothers and sisters.
Almost everybody who meets brothers
or sisters or cousins of his own after a
long separation (when uas has not dulled
his apprehension of tlio facts) must hbve
noticed, with mingled amusement and
dissatisfaction, in ten thousand little
ways and sayings, how very closely he
and they resemble one another. Some
times the very catchwords and phrases
they use, their pet aversions and their
pet sympathies, turn out at every twist
of life to bo absurdly identical. One
may even bo made aware of one’s own
unsuspected and unobtrusive failings by
observing them, as in a mirror, in the
minds of one’s relations, like King
George’s middy in Mr. Gilbert’s story,
who meets himself on an enchanted
island, and considers his double the most
disagreeable fellow he ever came across.

Chlnote Vcu'lfntr Women,
lb my.mind, tat? unique feature of
Hong Kong street < mv the professional
menders, or sewing wolnen, ugly, old
Chinese women, with half dwarfed feet,'
whp come out in tho' morning with low
stools and a'basket of rags and sit by tho
curbstones or in archways, recesses or
doorways, and sow away all day long.
They do not exactly dam stockings and
sew on buttons, but their labors corre
spond to that, and for a triflo a poor
workman can have his tattered coat
patched and mended or his old garments
made over. Peddlers of oranges, dry
goods, lamps, toys and fancy wares stop
howling their wares through the streets
to chat with the professional menders,
and of all Chinese women tho menders
seem to have the pleasantest lot.
They ore wise looking old Bettys, all
of them, and sometimes they wear huge
horn rimmed spectacles that make them
look-like Minerva’s bird. To watch them
planning and'turning and twisting their
garments and rags Is most diverting; and
two old menders down the road hero are
beginning to look upon me as an intend
ing customer from the way in which
they try'to further engage my attentidb
each time they display their skill. The
menders %ok down the social ladder a
great ways at the coolie women employed
on publio works in the streets, but tho
coolie women probably find some further
below to drop their superior gnzo on.—

Tho Economical Scotchman.
He is not a man of brilliant qualities,
but he is a man of solid ones, who can
only be appreciated at his true worth
when you hava known him some time.
He does not jump at you with demon
strations of love, nor docs ho swear you
an eternal friendship; but if you know
how to win his esteem, you may rely
upon him thoroughly. Ho is n man who
pays prompt cash, but will have tho
value of ltia money. If ever you travel
with a Scotchman from Edinburgh to
London," you may observo that ho does
not tako his eyes off the country tho train
goes through. He looks out of tlie win
dow all tho timo, so os not to miss a
pennyworth of tho monoy he has paid for
his place. Remark to him, as you yawn
and stretch yourself, that it’s a long, tir
ing, tiresome journey, and ho will prob
ably exclaim; “Long, indeed, long! I
should think so, sir; and so it ought to be
fo?£2 17s. OU.l’’
1 know of a Scot, who, rather than
pay tho toll of a bridgo in Australia,
takes off Ids coat, which he rolls and
straps on his back, in order to swim
across tho stream. He is not a miser.
On tlio contrary, his generosity is well
known in liis own neighborhood. He is
simply an eccentric Scot, who does not
see why ho should pay for crossing a
river that ho can cross for nothing.—

At r. recent meeting |jf tlio American
Association for the Advancement of
Science, siiecinvas of a now honey plant
wore militated. Six years ago it was
bov-i. with other u-cdii from Florida, by
Mr. Ch:ipm%:i. of Versailles. The plant
is tln«dtii J by Ileal and Scrfliton ns the
cch,no. a xnlimrcccpIitUu. It liclongs to
the teasel family, and, a native of Cen
tral France, ban in some unaccountable
manner become naturalized in Florida.
It grows from four to live feet high, and
bears largo prickly leaves like,those of a
thistle, and from twenty to thirty heads
of i-tuali white flowers, which ojien from
the top downward. The flowers are
very productive of nectar, und arc there
fore very attractive to bees, 2,183 of
wliich, by actual count, visited one bead

Thirty heads furnished supplies for 00,000
