It is asserted that it i» not »n unusual thing for women who frequently go buck and forth between Canada and the United States, nlong the border of the Ontario peninsula, to wear a smuggling bag. The contrivance is suspended from the waist, reaches within a few inches of (he hem of the skirt, and will hold almost as much as a furniture van. It is claimed that a wild grapevine growing near the bank of the Saw hatchee Creek, near Blakely, Ga., is the largest, known. It is twelve inches in diameter. Then? is a grapevine that would give it a close rub on a point in the St. John’s River, near Tocoi, Fla. It grows between the roots and twines among the branches of a live oak, tiro trunk of which measures eight yards in circumference. Three hundred thousand copies would boa small figure for the number of pic tures of Mrs. Cleveland sold since the announcement of her betrothal to the President. The fortunate possessors of early negatives at Buffalo, Albany •anil Seneca Falls, N, Y., had a monopoly of the trade at first, charging $35 a hun dred for the cabinets, the pictures re tailing for 50 cents each. Notwith standing tlic competition of the later photographers the prices hold firm, and the market is active ami growing. Europe, outside of Russia, crowds 244,000,000 of people upon a surface much smaller than that held by out 00,000,000, says a writer in I'mnk Ln He'll. In all Europe, exclusive ol Russia, the average of population to the square mile is 100, and in the Uni ted States it is 10. For every loaf ol bread tint a num gets in Europe, there is ten times ns much st ruggling as for a loaf in this country. Bread is dear, therefore, and humanity is cheap, in Europe. Humanity is more highly rated here, and bread is cheaper. r It is expected that, before long a prac tical tost of one of the numerous har nesses for the control of Niagara's power, brought into existenc under the stimu lus <xf a $ 100.000 prize, will receive a practical test, which will demonstrate its use or prove it a failure, and give something further on which to base ar guments that Niagnr.i contains no great shakes of available power. An endless chain, with feathering buckets, was the invention of a Buffalo man. The rights for Erie and Niagara counties he sold for $115,000. A stock company with $1,000,000 capital is to be formed if the coming test proves successful. The wheat reserves of Europe in 1887 arc smaller than in any of the lust five years, especially so on the continent. Great. Britain will need to import next year about 140.000.000 bushels wheat, France, Holland and Belgium 20.000,- 000 each, Italy 18,000,000, Germany 10,000,000. The Dominion of ('amid i, with a deficient wheat crop in Ontario anil Quebec, will require all the surplus of Manitoba. Besides this country, Russia, Austria, Hungary. Roumaui:i, British India, Australia, Egypt, Chili and the Argentine Republic will each have an export surplus of wh at to >cll in the markets of the world. Western towns which have n Ixtom can appreciate the power ot the press. The people of Tu -on, Arizona, Im. R,OOO copies of their local paper nvry month for the • purpose of sending ft abroad, and in addition pay it S2OO a month for special “write-ups. ’ The town of Lamar, Col., recently paid the local paper $1,500 for a “wtite up," ami the citizens of Fort Scott, Kansas, have just spent $7,000 in advertising the town. Hutchinson, K ms.is, claims to give its local paper a botni- ol - SIO,OOO a year for remaining nlix. ami kicking, while Newton, K n -. ays its pip, r $15,000 a yeir. I’here is nothing at all improjier in this, us the money is paid for legitimate advertising. On the con trary, it is very creditable to the citi zens of those towns that they thus en courage their local papers and at the same time benefit themselves. WISE WORDS, Ho whe can nirpass a moment's anger may prevent a day of sorrow. A child Is the bright ,t ray tn the sunshine of a parent's heart. Mind is power. Educated mind is Intelligent; intensified power. The seeds of love can never grow’ but under thcwaljn, genial influence of kind feeling*, and affectionate manners. Tlic proper function of a government is to make it easy for the people to do good, and difficult for them to do evil. most influential parents ar: those who know how to share the enjoyments of their children. We blame Fortuno for not visiting us, whereas in many cases tlie fault lies nt our own doors in doing nothing to invite her in. • Experience is a good school, but it keeps Us too long, and the tuition bills are too costly for a fellow who is in a hurry for a diploma. A moderate understanding, with dili gent and well-directed application, will go much farther than a more lively genius Attended with that impatience ami inattention which too often accom pany quick parts. Though years bring with them wis dom, yet there is one lesson the aged seldom ever learn, namely, the manage ment of youthful feelings. Age is all head, youth all heart; age reasons, youth is under the dominion of hope. Kind words produce their own image in men’s souls, and a beautiful itn ige it is. They soothe and comfort the hearer. They shame him out of his unkind feel ings. We have not yet begun to use them in such abundance as they ought to be used. Harem Life in Turkey. The principal diversions of harem fife consist in the visits of friends and of a pernicious class of trading women, who hawk about articles of dress and gew gaws from one house to another retail ing the latest gossip and scandal with their wares, and assisting the ladies t« get into all manner of scrapes. Wise women who tell fortunes by cards and incantations are also in great demand, and their vaticinations arc as a rule be lieved in by the ladies with much the same delightful and blind confidence as is given by fanners’ daughters to the mysterious prophecies of the gypsies. Now and then condign punishment awaits these hags, as in the case of the notorious Ayosha, who, several year? ago, was called for one night, hustled into a carriage under pretense of visiting a great harem, and has never since been heard of. But as a rule, their sorceries, evil eyesand charms are perfectly harm less, and when there is nothing better to do they are called in to beguile tho heavy hours. Nor must the men singers be left out in tlie catalogue of delights of tlie harem—a delight, nevertheless, which is but sparingly indulged in, and tan only be enjoyed to the full when the harem’s lord is away.— l.omhm Saturday lieview. A Museum of Religion. Parisians who, in these latter days, nt least, are not remarkable for the depth or fervor of their religious feelings, are about to have u museum of religious. The founder of this remarkable nnd in teresting institution is u M. Guimet. Tlie building is in the Grieco-Roman style of Architecture, and with its pil lared porticoes, its rotundo, its columns, nnd its caryatides, looks like an ancient temple. It is situated near tlie Trocadcro, at a corner of the Avenue d’Jena. The edifice has been constructed after designs which Were taken from tlie last mosaics discovered at Pompeii. Tho religions of Greece and Rome are most strongly represented, alid in tlie northern gallery is an atrium which is to contain the altar of a pagan divinity copied from an original model. In the lateral galleries will be exhibited objects appertaining to tho religions of Egyp’, India and China. In a garden attached to the building there is to be placed a large conservatory and a pond containing plantsconsecrated to religious uses. It is stilted tint the museum will be opened to tho public in a few weeks. — London I Ttleyruyli. An African Nero. King .Tn Jn, of Opobo, who has lately been arrested by the British authorities on the West Coast, is a monarch who i bolioves in a vigorous system of gover- I Inent. Ho is said to have lately be headed 150 of his subjects to encourage the remainder and to warn them that it was advisable to obey his orders. How ever, as fliis act was probably sanc tioned by the constitution of Opobo, he was not deposed on account of it. He might have gone on be heading the Opobo nobles with im punity. or nt any rate til! tho next ris ing; but tlie West African Nero came to grief when he began to interfere with the palm-oil traders. He had agreed to allow free access to these merchants; whereas, it is alleged, ho secretly in stituted his well-drilled people not to <ell oil to anybody but his own agents. But the King's attempt at n •‘corner” in oil was promptly suppressed by the Con sul. nnd now liedaiiiguishe's in a British dungeon, to the great relief of his wives, his loyal subjects mid tho palin-otl in terest’s.— './.ow-.« Gazette.
