It is now American babies who are commending themselves to foreign eyes. An Englishwoman visiting this country writes home for publication: "You could not imagine anything tn.ire quaint ly delightful than American small children and babies. They, up to four, wear the dearest little close caps of all colors, but generally w hite-the queer est, prettiest clothes alt just touching the ground. It is easy to see where Kate Oreenaway got her models for her quaint pictures; they are exactly here. "Then the baby carriages nothing approaching our clumsy perambulators. They are allof either bent wood or good wicker work, yellowish white, like bam boo, anil openwork all around, ou per fect springs, and most of them rock up and down when not leing wheeled, and tixed large parusols overhead in all col ors and pretty devices. "Half lying un.U r this bright shade is a round-faced. pale, very pretty, piquant baby, with unusually dark eyes, with an expression in them as if there was nothing they didn't know; a tiny white silk cap on its tiny head; rings secured to its wrists by a ribbon on its fat fingers; the daintiest white pillows, white fancy coverlets over its little body, and an air of cushions and coziness about it. Such is the American baby." This is very delightful, even if it sounds as if the American baby were n species newly discovered by intrepid explorers. MENTIONED WITHOUT NAMES.

Hut the idea is one which is altogether too little considered in most of the work undertaken for the refor (nation of the criminal classes of our great cities. The good Calvin sent poor Servetus to the slake while in a fit of indigestion. Carlj-le's misanthropy has Wen very correctly traced to his dys pepsia. Washington Irving tells of a certain emir ("Lives of the Caliphs") named Al llejagi, who had suffered for many years from abdominal pains due to dyspepsia, and who is distinguished as Jiaving been one of the most cruel rulers th world has ever produced. He left fifty thousand persons in prison when he died, and during his life had caused the death of one hundred and twenty thousand persons, not counting thutte who fell in battles cC his instiga ton.

CONUNDRUMS. What tree bears the most toothsome fruit? llentistry. When do we find a grain of truth? When we cereal facts. Why does Cupid carry an arrow? be cause it is a weapon for the beau. Why should consumptives avoid Java? liecause it is a coffee place. Why do people shout when they go into caves? They are hollow places. When people are quarreling out-of-doors what should they do? Co-in-cide. What departed statesman cannot be said to have gone to dust? Henry Clay. Why is a pretty girl fond of ribbons? Because she thinks the beaux be com ing. Why should goat's milk be used in the dairy? liecause the goat makes th best butter. Why don't foreign counts marry poor Araerican girls? They have no prin ciple, hence no interest, and with neither a poor girl can not bkik a-count. X. V. Independent. POPULAR SCIENCE. The curvature of the earth is eight inches per mile. Mars revolves around the sun at a mean distance of about 141,000,000 miles. It would take l,3O0.0OU earths to make a globe the size of the sun. The density of the sun is only about one fourth that of the earth. A kh.l that could be heard SS.Ooo feet in water could be heard only ri.Vi feet iu the open air. I logs barking on the earth can be heard by balloonists at a height of four miles. DiFFLKfcXT points upon the surface of the earth revolve with different veloc ities. At the poles the speed of rota tion is nothing, but at the equator it is greatest, or over 1,000,000 miles per hour. One healthy house-fly, in the course of the summer, lays four times, and each time about SO eggs, making Mid for the season. 1 1 L estimated that in one season the product of a pair of flies amounts to 2,0su,3v!0 eggs. STATISTICAL ITEMS. Last year loS.S'20 immigrants left German ports for the United States. Thklk-fifths of the shoes worn in the United States are made in Massa chusetts. It is estimated that the standing pine iu Ashland county. Wis., w ill meas ure about 10.000.000,000 feet. The total recorded immigration to this country . is 10.oo4.oy::. almost as many as the whole population of Spain. In manufacturing operations the average life of soap boilers is highest and that of grindstone makers the lowest. The Irish spend $11 per capita, the Scotch 815.14 per capita and the Eng lish Sly. 16 per capita for liquors an nually. These statistics are given by Rev. Dr. Dawson liurn. of London, who is a standard authority on temper ance questions. BETTER THAN GOLD. The finest emerald in Eurdpe be lougs to the czar. It weighs only thir ty carats, but is of perfect color and transparency. When a fine ruby is found in Bur ma, h a procession of elephants, gran dees and soldiers escorts it to the king's palace. The sapphire which adorns the sum mit of the English crown is the same that Edward the Confessor wore in his ring. Oi'Ai.s are so sensitive that exposure to moisture or heat, or even sudden at mospheric change, sometimes ruins them. The Russian scepter is of olid gold, three feet long, and contains among its ornaments '2 diamonds, oo0 rubies and 15 emeralds. MISSION BREVITIES. At present 330 Bible women work in the Zenanas in India. Tue he are 2O0.OO0.OO0 people in Africa who never saw the Bible or heard a whiper of the Gospel tidings. The wages of Japanese are rarely more than six pence a day, but last year the converts gave 5,400 for mis sion purposes. It is calculated that there are 6,000 Protesta nt missionaries at work in the world, being one to the l(ki,0O0 of the unevangelized. Ix 14 there were only twelve med ical missionaries in all the non-Christian world; now there are 400, and every year sees an addition to the number. A HANDFUL OF CHAFF. The easiest way for a man to pack a trunk is to get his wife to do it. Ir some of our heads were not so big our hearts would hold more love. Thebe are still some men on earth who keep the devil on the keen jump every minute. That man has reached a high state of grace who never blames his wife for his own mistakes. There is something wrong with the mans head who falls down on the same banana fekin twice. Theke is one good thing to be said in favor of the hornet. He always has an aim and generally hits it. Earn s Horn. Naval snore Duty. One striking difference between the United States and the British naval service lies in the divisiou of sea aud shore duty. A British naval officer has practically no shore duty, and the service at naval stations, dock yards and the lite, performed here by oflicers of the navy, is assigned in Great Britain to civilians. The United States naval officer is entitled to his alternate terras of three years ashore and afloat, but the British naval officer has his brief leave audiore and then got back to bin ship aukd Lb aosW - JOB:: PRINTING.
