How Bogs Talk. A dog's "good-morning" is something could not understand for ft long hile. It consists of a wriggle frdm en(* end, and an effort to Bbake f-<vV>, (hands with both his head and his tail •" ; j»t once. He hardly seems to know /' just which end to put forward. This | V JT; , is the secret of it; language in lower ^ " 'creatures is not confined to the tongue yr» jMost of the creatures with tails talk with the tail as much as with the >sgu6--some more. A horse's tail is requently quite articulate. A dog's .• dtail holds half his power of expres- Ision. As we have lost the caudal ap- U/-i" -pendage, we have grown to be very f; tonguev--it is a necessity. All our language is from the mouth. But ^ .y-Boseo, you see, talks at both ends 1"^ ! 'about equally well, and when he meets - t^011 after an absence, he is so delighted :• jthat both ends contend in the effort to y ^express joy. Sometimes I pity Bosco, r * -for it seeniH as if he would twist him* , {self into two dogs. It really must be ' {„ >very embarrassing to have language at I.j; |both ends, and neither one quite com- *" * ' jpletp.

It sometimes happens, said a New York jeweler, that the Collector is no­ tified of the coining of diamond smng- glers, as he was in the case of Henry- James Marriott some five or six years ago. Marriott stole diamonds valned at $50,000 from a Paris jeweler named Kramer. Marriott was a clerk in a pic­ ture store, and, with his booty ana a young girl named Pereux, fled to this country. Two persons answering their description soon after came in a German steamer, and hardly had they landed be­ fore United States Deputy Marshal Bernhard was on their track. They were finally traced to Staten Island and arrested at tli„ Battery while coming up to the city. Nearly all of the stones were discovered, some of them being found sewed into a pincushion, p. muff, and a pair of trousers in the room of the thieves. Sometimes diamond smug­ glers are reported by fellow-passengers in whom they have confided, or who have had their suspicions excited by some chance word or act. Diamonds have been found concealed in doap, in women's back hair, and in some in­ stances fastened to the plate of an up­ per set of false teeth., Some people •who are constantly on the go between this country and Europe are habitually watched. One of the strangest cases that ever came under my observation was that of a man who had subjected himself to a great deal of bodily pain to effect his purpose} It was generally understood among his fellow-passengers that he was a great invalid and was suf­ fering from sotae i^curable blood dis­ ease that would eventually end his life When he came off the steamer, supported by attendants, he was indeed a frightful looking object, his face being a mass of eruptions. What it was that excited my suspicions I can't Bay, but something told me that the man was aii impostor and I decided to have him searched. You never saw such an in­ dignant lot of people as they were and their protestations that a search would endanger the life of the invalid almost made me .forego my resolution. The look of satisfaction on the invalid's face, however, when I hesitated, settled me, and I hail him brought into the inspect- ing-room, and sent for a physician be­ fore examining him, as I wished to take no risks. When the doctor came he felt the man's pulse and looked puzzled. "There is nothing the matter with that man," he said finally, "except ex­ traneous skin poisoning." You may be sure I had him stripped pretty quickly. Would you believe it? His skin was as white and soft as a baby's with the exception of five red lumps on the inner side of the thighs that looked like large, undeveloped boils or Carbuncles. The physician examined these curiously and then said to hold him. Three or four of us held him ^hile the doctor made an incision over one of the lumps and extracted--a diamond! You see, the fellow had read that the diggers in the African mines sometimes used this way for concealing valuable gems, and he had tried it. He was the most crest­ fallen invalid you ever saw, for, besides having all his suffering for nothing, he was out about $12,000. Orators' Fright. , A beginner in oratory is like one speaking a foreign language; he says what he can, not what he would. When Stratford Canning, subsequently the cool, imperious English Ambassador at Constantinople, made his first speech in Parliament, he was so frightened that he felt like a skater, under whose gyrations the treacherous ice has b"iven way and left him to flounder in the water. Lord Derby, "the Rupert of Debate," chaffed him about his failure. "Come,, come, my lord," replied Stratford Canning, "in spite of your great ability and success, how is it with yon?" • - "Well," answered the great debater, "111 tell you honestly. When I have a statement to make in the House, I don't feel at all comfortable; but in debate, when I have to deal with some antagon­ ist, the case is qtiite different," and a flash from his eye confirmed the truth of what he said. Robert Smith, brother of Sydney Smith, known among his friends as "Robus," was a wit, a scholar, and a law­ yer, who. before judges and juries, had a reputation as an advocate; but when he spoke in the House of Commons, he tried to pass from one branch of argu­ ment to another, and, in musical phrase­ ology, "missed stays," and was obliged to sit down. • There are effective orators who are never free, when they rise to speak, from the apprehension of failure. One of the most witty, graceful, and eloquent speakers in Parliament, George Can- mag, said he never rose without the fear of being obliged to sit down for lack of something to say. Doubtless the apprehension ma<|e him more elo­ quent, for nervousness, if controlled, stimulates an orator to do his best.-- Youth's Companion. , Queer Cure for Pneumonia. Attention has lately been directed to the benefit derivable, in cases of pneu­ monia, where there is great embarrass­ ment of breathing from accumulated se­ cretion in the bronchial tubes, by invert­ ing the patient and having him cough violently while in such position. It is easily accomplished by a strong assist­ ant standing on the patient's bed, seiz­ ing the sick man's ankles, turning him face downward and then lifting his feet four or five feet above the level of the mattress. If the patient, with his face over the edges of the bed and his legs thus held aloft, will cough vigorously two or three times he will get rid of much expectoration that exhaustive efforts at coughing failed to dislodge when not thus aided. Life has been saved by repeated performances of this maneuver in pneumonia accompanied with great cyanosis, due to inundation of the bronchial tubes with mucous se­ cretion. It, of course, will have no effect on'the exudus in the vesicles. In a similar way gravity is of value in empty­ ing the lungs of mucus during etheriza­ tion.--#. F. Tribune. » . An Unvisited City. One, and only one, of the very popu­ lous centers of the world's population stMl remains shut up from travel; that is the capital of Thibet. The peculiar religion of that country has had force enough to absolutely inclose Lhassa, the capital of Dalai Lama, from all ap- l proach Only six or seven Europeans ever set foot in, that city, and none of them are alive. But the famous Rus­ sian traveler, Prejevalsky, has made three attempts, and is now about to make the fourth. On the third he was obliged to turn back after ^reaching within twenty miles of the city. From one alone of of his expeditions he brought back 5,000 specimens of plants, besides enormous collections of fish, in- :-T -..3 sects, and animals-- one-fifth of the whole being new to science; oo that his failures are in the highest degree suc­ cesses. Fifty years ago one-half of the world was unknown ground. Royal and Princely Dinners. In our day royal households keep, a comparatively less sumptuous table many private individuals. Queen Victoria is fond of Scotch cookery, and commences her repasts with oatmeal broth and cream porridge. She,drinks pale Domech sherry from a silver cup of marvelouslv delicate work­ manship that originally belonged to Queen Anne. The Queen's dinner in the evening is complete. The table is lighted by golden candelabra holding wax candles, and masses of orchids placed in epergnes reach up to the ceil­ ing. Her Majesty eats a special kind of meal bread highly baked in a square loaf. - The Queen of Sweden beeps a tempt­ ing table. Soup, nearly always clotted cream and barley; steak, and one of hsr favorite dishes, balls of hashed meat, cooked in oil and surrounded by poached eggs. Then at almost every meal fol­ lows the national and natural viand, salmon preserved in the earth. At the German Court the Grand Duchess of Baden keeps the most re­ fined table. She has a French cook and the best of French cuisine, a little too white, perhaps, too many dump­ lings and jellies, but still a refined kitchen, and excellent wines. The Grand Duchess makes her own coffee in a Russian coffee-pot of enameled gold. The Empress Victoria lives in En­ glish style, and added a great deal of milk to her cookery when the first symptoms of the Crown Prince's illness appeared. She has a preference for mashed vegetables, with gravy and pastry of every kind. ' In Italy the Court dines at a table covered with magnificent hammered gold plate, the only luxury visable. There are no flowers, and the dishes of the country prevail, especially the fritto, a mixture of artichokes, hearts, liver, brains, and cock's combs. At the Comte de Paris' the cuisine is English and bourgeoise. The peculiar feature is that soup is served at lunch­ eon. The wines are Asti, Zucco, and Pontet-Canet. In the morning English and in the evening French silver plate is used. The Due d'Aumale favors French cookery. Onion soup for lunch, with coarse, almost military bread. One delicacy is permitted, a marvelous kind of cream cheese.--Paris Gaulois. FACTS AND FIGU1UHL j s ; enjov rushing us offer Children's Joys. A aiaater in Good Ho» makes the following suggestions, whicl will doubtless be a help to mothers and a joy to the little people: Little duties, early assumed, make greater ones to follow easier of accom­ plishment. But if you intend to teach your children to put away their cloth­ ing or their toys, provide places and in- sits upon their being put there. And don't yield to them, as you will many times be tempted to do, when they com­ plain that they "don't feel like it." If you keep a damp wash-rag on a low nail in the bath-room there will be no necessity for you^to drop your work to wipe George's finders after he has fin­ ished his fruit. Most children their own teeth. a word of advice, .begin wften your baby is eighteen months old to clean his tiny teeth, and keep it up as regularly as you do your own. Dentists will tell you this is none .to early; that the sec­ ond set will be all tb« sounder, and be­ side the children will be spared much suffering frexn toothache. Teach the children to be careful of their playthings. The time to have them put away is when they begin to kick them about. Don't have them all out at the same time. Hide a few for a week. And don't forget one thing more: teach the babies to sing. There are so,many merry jingles for children now­ adays. They can often catch the tune of your lullaby, as they close their tired eyes in sleep. Some primary teacher will gladly give you her school songs, or you can get some kindergar­ ten plays. The St. Nicholas collection of songs contains bright, sparkling mel­ odies for children of all ages. Remem- hnr too, the Sundsv-school songs. You will be rested some day when the little folks place the chairs in rows, open books and sing in childish joy as they "play church" like grown people But be careful of one thing; don't do too much. Don't get the children into the habit of always depending on you for their enjoyment, tmt make them self-reliant in work and playv THE production, of lead in tbe United States for 1888 was 189,000 tons, against 1«X,700 tons in 1887. THE consumption of sugar in the United States last year was 1,362,000 tons of refined, and 106,500 tons ef raw. ARCHITECTURAL eonstruotion in Chi­ cago last year resulted in the building of 4,985 edifices, costing t20.3G0.800, and having a frontage of 116,419 feet, or more than 2*2 J miles. THE entire potato PRODUCT tbe country in 1888 was 230,000,000 bushels, an increase of 90,000,000 bushels over the crop of 1887. The principal great potato producing States are New York. Michigan, - Illinois, Minnesota, and Dakota. A THE window glass consumption foi the last six months of 1888 was the largest ever known, and there were 200,000 more boxes produced than th> vear previous. The imports were also Leavy. The nutaber of pots were in­ creased during Ahe. year from 700, tc !.200. V THE United States possesses the largest vault, and the largest deposit Oi money in it, of any Government in the world. It- can hold 5100.000,000, but the prospects are favorable for a call for increased storage of silver. There are about $20,000,000 in half dollars that do not budge. THE total imports at New York, ex­ clusive of Specie, were $455,874,020 for the past year, against $461,534,595 foi the previous year. The returns show a falling Off in the imports of produce and merchandise of only $5,<U>0,575, which is much less than was anticipated consid­ ering the general depression of trade. IT is semiofficially stated that the price of silver during 1888 averaged 93^c per ounce, as against $1 01 i in 1887. The decline in the price, it is claimed, earned a direct loss to Colorado mines of $1,456,738, or the return was that dum less than they would have received for the same otincea of silvei during the previous year. THE dairy interests of the United States represent more than $3,000,000,- QOO. The number of milk cows is estimated at 21,000,000, which give an aggregate milk production of 7,350,000,- 000 gallons. Four billion gallons aw used for butter, 700,000,000 for cheese and the. balance for general purposes. The annual production of butter is 1,350,000,000 pounds and 6,500,00c pounds of cheese.

Who fe these days kills gemt by Dr. John Hunter's most unheroicbut effect ual/ remedy? Do you demand--by what? I reply, apples! That natural antidote to so many of the ills the flesh is heir to; that fruit so full of vegetable acids; that enemy to torpidity of tht liver and indigestion; that tonic with such an affluence of phosphorus. Why, ev<jo the giants of mythology, wre are told, eat them to keep off old age. But do you inquire what sort? Any sort-- all sorts. How eaten ? As the school­ boy eats them when robbing an orchard --skin, core, every part. Won't cidei do? Just the sort of question some country school boards would put in their omniscient knownothingness.

Malic acid in cither produces gout; malic acid in apples, whenoe cidei comes, prevents--nay, extirpates--gout One of England's sagacious Premiers, Palmerston, who knew most .things ir his day on earth, and a great deal undei it, seeing lie knew Nicholas of Russia-- to 'whom any other Nicholas was n greenhorn--Palmerston was acquainted with Dr. Hunter; but either didn't lieai of the apple cure or else didn't believt in it. 1 et Palmerton was a martyr tc the gout; would sit at a dinner tabic and partake of a dish though he was aware that the cost was gout in less than twenty-four hours. The great an­ cestor or Palmerston -- Sir William Temple, patron of Dean Swift--kept the gout at bay with oranges. The cict- ric acid thereof exorcised that terriblf concurrence of spasms. Gillary, t comic genius in an age of wits, drew such a sketch of the "Gout-demon" that sufferers found in it a reproduction adding to their agony.

Smith, the eminent microscopist, finds that geiiuine honey can be readily distinguished from man­ ufactured honey by the microscope. The former has few or no sugar crystals and abounds with pollen grains, while the imitations have little els® than these crystal, with scarcely a trace of these pollen grains. The honeyed taste of the manufactured article, he thinks, may come from honeycomb or beeswax being mashed up with the article used in the manufacture. Each class of plants has its own specific form of pollen grain, and Mr. Smith days that any one con­ versant with this branch of botany cotild tell from what part of the world the honey came by studying the pollen grains thajt fiQIltaiUi Arident Cooks. In an old lionmri liou^ehold, traditioc tells us, the head-cook was a high- salaried officer--of course, your quiet thoughts revert to the genius who pre­ sided over one famous dinner that Mark Antony gave to Cleopatra and that wa* so sumptuous that it actually drew praise from that haughty dame, which unusual appreciation so delighted the infatuated Antony that lie summoned the cook and gave him an entire city as a recompense. But it was no extraordinary thing foi Roman cooks to command salaries ol $4,000 a year. The kitchen was a vast apartment separated from the house and was governed by the "Archimagirus," or chief cook, who held the most string­ ent rules. ' These supreme officers were the re­ cipients of no set salaries, they drew ample reward from their artistic fame; "Above all men," they were wont to say. "wf are intrusted by the gods with the sedfet of human happiness;" And they asked for no higher recognition ot their services. The Sicilians, however, ranked as the best cooks in olden times, and although the Romans many times offered them incredible sums for their services they were obdurate and never deserted their posts.--Belle Blanchard, in Table Talk.
