AMERICAN LWEXTOK. What He Has Done to Help Hu manity. Uit Invention FTiitnlly Become St Gift to the MMWt. anil the IToUuclnK l'ower of the Wrll 1 In orruwt ly HI Genius. Of all none is A me riea. f.ir this, patents. the countries in the world, so prolific in inventions as There are several reasons The ease of obtaining anil their cheapness, holds out to every man trie c-nance ol creat ing for himself a piece of property by the exercise of his brains. The hitfh rate of wutfes insures the inventor of a labor-saving appliance a patient hear ing1 from capitalists, while the inde pendence of thought and feelinjf which pervades all classes leads to original views and to lold attacks on ditticult subjects. Hence every one is a potential inventor, especially if he have an acquaintance with science or manufacture. Whatever a man's oc cupation, he must daily lind himself called upon to do or to suffer many things from which he would jrldly emancipate himself.' The proverb says: -There is a remedy for every ill but death," and. seeing how many ills there are, the opportunities for devis ing remedies are not only numlierless, but they are present to all. The un enterprising lieiir with patience the inconveniences that surround them, but those of active niind busy them selves in devising expedients t lighten the burden of life, ami look for their reward under the provisions of the patent law. The inventor is the greatest benefactor of the human race, and especially of that part of it which is indigent; he is the real friend of the poor man, and indeed almost his only friend. It is, according to Ixmdon Engineer ing1, when we compare the condition of the poor to-day with that of pre" vious ages that we see how much the inventor has done for humanity. To know how hard life must have been before the advent of machinery, we have only to imagine a family set down on an island, and called upon to pro vide all their food and clothing, with out the aid of modern mechanical ap pliances to plow and reap; to thrash, winnow, and grind; to raise cattle, kill and dress them; to shear, card, spin, and weave their wool; to make and mend their clothes; to provide soap, candles, tools, cutler-, earthenware, paper, pencils.nails, medicines, leather, boots, ropes, and the thousand anil one things that are ncedc 1 in a home. Evidently it could not he done, even if labor were continued from dawn to eve, and then extended far into the night. And this under the favorable conditions of a yoeman's family with out rent to pay. How much worse must it have been under the exactions of a feudal landlord! Two-thirds of what we consider necessaries must have been omitted from the list of that day, and to sore toil must have been added scanty fare and iusutlieient clothinc- During the term of his patent the in ventor, or his assignee, may make money out of it, hut when it expires it practically becomes a gift to the masses. The producing power of the world has been increased manifold, w ithout any corresponding increase in the consuming power of the upper classes. The wealthy do not eat more bread and meat to-day than they did years ago. Vet the output of these comiuiMlities has been vastly aug mented, and they are consumed in large quantities by a section of the population which once seldom got tlesh food and often went short of bread. And so of nearly every other industry; the working classes take the bulk of what is produced, for the very good reason that they are able, by the aid of machinery, to turn out several times as much work in a day as could their forefathers. At the same time that their production has increased, their actual lalor has diminished. A man w ith a heavy job in a foot lathe not. only worked slowly, but painfully. When his long day was ended every faculty was exhausted, and he tramix-d home to rest, expended both in body aml mind. Now he looks on while the lathe does the work, and in the even ing discusses the provisions of the em ployers' liability act. His hitnr.i, bio. are shorter than they were, while the appreciation of gold which has taken place has cnormou.-.ly increased hi, wages by augmenting their purchasing power. Origin of the Wor.l "Kt-ataurant. A French paper, in discussing the word '"restaurant," now a part of the language of every country, gives the following history of its origin: "A landlord. Waring the appropriate name of Koulangcr, whose house was in the Kite des I"reeheurs, Paris, in order to draw patrons decided to keep bouillon, boiled eggs, roasted chickens ami other edibles ready at all hours of the day. rather than at only three cer tain periods. He announced this plan on a great shield aWve his door, bear ing the following inscription: "Venite ail me oinnes qui stomacho labor at is. et ego tres taurabo vos. The an nouncement excited talk, the passers by laughed and entered the house to restore themselves. The inn Wcame famous and other Parisian landlords began to imitate the inventive lioulanger by calling their inns 'rest aurants' and themselves 'restau rateurs.'" Krh to HI Own. The story is told that the late R. 15. Hayes had for a neighWr in Ohio a testy old fellow who ran a small truck farm. He was honest and upright and Mr. Hayes held him in high esteem, not withstanding his lack of social ameni ties and respect for persons. On one of his visits to Ohio during the presidency, he passed the old man's farm and found him planting potatoes in a patch near the road. The president. Wing some what of a farmer himself, noticed some peculiarity in his neighWr's style of planting, and after a few minutes' chat he called his attention to it. and the old man argued the point awhile. "After all," concluded the president. "I don't think you are doing it as it should be done for the Wst results." The old farmer rested his arm on the fence and looked steadily at Mr. Hayes. "They ain't neither one of us," he said, "above bavin" fault found w ith us: "u jest go on presidentin' the I'nited States your way, an' I go on plantin' pertaters my way, I guess we won't be no wuss off in the end." Mr. Hayes accepted the suggestion pleasantly and passed on. lioston Traveller. The Ancient lietrothat King. The ancients wore the betrothal ring as now on the next least finger of the left hand Many reasons are assign.il for this, as the err. .11,1, us idea that a vein or nerve went direct to the heart and therefore the outward sign of mat rimony . ' Ik- placed in connection with the seat of life; the left hand is a sign of inferiority or subjection; the left hand is less employed than the right, and the finger next least is the Wst protected. At one time it was the custom to place the wedding rin -ou the right hand of the bride. The Anglo Jsaxoti bridegroom at the Wtrothal gave a wed )r pil(re, and a ring was pla.nl on the maiden's, right hand w here it re sumed till mrrUpe, WM tu MRS. ELM IRA HATCH. HEART DISEASE 20 YEARS.

L Ml SPOKE TWENTY-SIX HOURS. The Ieteranind Eflortof aJi jis;liah Ntatoa UiAO to Ut-frsl U-l-u ' 1-Kiala.t luo. The loiiff ht t.prrchuu rocird is be lieved by the Tall Mall liudg-et to have ln'en that made by Mr. IV-t'mos in the k-p-ilature of liritish CVdumbla when a measure was pending- the iai sajre of which would take from a threat many settlers their lauds. le Cumidm was iu a hoa-less minority. The j..b had Ut-o held back till the eve of the close of the session. Unless legislation was taken Ik.-fore noon of a piven day the act of confiscation would fail. Tle day In-fore the expiration of the limita tion IK Comuim jfot the floor alniut ten a. m. and bean a speech against the bill. ItsfrU'iids care,! little, for they supiaisej that by one or two o'clock lie woal.l lie through, and the bill could Is put on its passage. One o"clck came and Ie Cosmiis was bpeakinif still had not more than entered utani hi:, subject. Two o'clock came he whs sayinp: "In the second place." Three o'clock he produced a fearful bundle of evidence and insisted on reading it. The majority bejran to have a suspi cion of the truth; he was tfoiup to. t-.pcak till next noon and kill the bill. I'or awhile they made merry over it, but as it came on to dusk they lx-an to tret alarmed. They tried interrup tions but soon abandoned them, be cause each one afforded him a chance to dijrress and pain time. They tried to shout him down, but that (rave him a breathing space, and finally they set tled down to watch the combat be tween strength of will and weakness of ImmIv. They pave him no mercy no adjournment for dinner, chance to do more than wet his lips with water, no wandering' from his subject, no sit ting down. Twilight darkened; the pas was lit; members slipped out to dinner in relays and returned to sleep ia squads, but le Cosmos went on. The speaker, to whom he was addressinp himself .was al ternatcly dozinp, snorinp and tryinp to look wide awake. Day dawned and the majority slipped out in squads to wash and breakfast, and the speaker still held on. It cannot be said that it was a very lopical, elo quent or sustained speech. There were digressions in it, repetitions also. ISut still the speaker kept on; and at last noon c-amc to a baltlwd majority, livid with rape and impotence, and a sinple man who was triumphant, thouph his voice had sunk to a husky whisper, his eyes were almost shut and were bleared and bloodshot, his leps tot tered under him, his blackened lips were cracked and smeared with blood. K' Cosmos had spoken twenty-six hours and saved the settlers their lands. ONE BANE OF THE EAST. Ilaatieeab, the Itrng Hhlrk, When Lous; l aetl, Itosults lo Idiocy. The word hasheesh has a fascination all its own, and this fascination is nat rally intensified by the peneral ip norance which prevails as to the subtle working's of this stranpe and mysteri ous vepetable composition, says the J ail . lau iJuupt-i. .it tne latterend ol last year Iord Koseberry requested the repretX'Utatives of 4Ireat Uritain in Kjrypt, tireece and Turkey to report on the repulations affecting the importa tion and sale of hasheesh, and these reports have now been presented to the houses of parliament. This nox iotisdrup, which is so baneful in its re sults, is chiefly composed of the husks of the innocent hempseed, but which, after its preparation, loses its inno cence aud becomes one of the greatest curses of the east. One report states that hasheesh disturbs the functions of the systems of digestion aud circula tion: that it injures the senses and motive powers; that it disturbs the cerebral functions. The report con tinues: The phantoms seen by, and the tendencies manifested in, those who are intoxicated with hasheesh petierally indicate the usual habits of thoupht and moral character of the in toxicated person, or the thouphts and passions by w hich the man was pos sessed m the day that he became in toxicated, or at the moment in which the symptoms of poisoninp bepan to make themselves manifest. lVrsons (riven to the use of hasheesh, w ho be come maniacs, are apt to commit all t orts of acts of violence and murders. .t-oii!-tiui.-s the intoxication impels the tiersou under its influence to suicide, or the commission of acts forbidden by morality. All authors are unanimous, basinp their opinion on numerous ol scrvaiions among eastern peoples, that the long use of the drup weakens the liody and causes atrophy, dulls the mind and creates h pochoudria. idiocy and mania. Those who indulpe in it have a fixed look, without expression, and an idiotic appearance. Accordinp to statistical information obtained from the lunatic asylums of Cairo and llcupa! the majority of the maniacs and idiots became such from abuse of hasheesh. In all the countries from which the retorts were received the importation, cultivation or sale of the drup is forbidden. A QUEEN'S PRIVILEGES Vletorta Mar Order Whole Opera. Com pany to Slog; for tier. There are some deliphtful preroga tives incident to the hiph estate of empress-queen which would po far toward reeoncilinp one to being as stout and short as is t he present very worthy in cumbent of the Knplish throne. Fancy beinp able to command an entire opera company to come to you at your home, with all of their paraphernalia, instead of hustling through your dinner and racing up elevated stairs, hanpinp on straps in street cars, spoiling your tem pi' r and best gloves, all to pet to your seat in the close and crowded theater before the first act is over. The queen, accordinp to the Itoston Clobe, manifests an increasing interest in this form of diversion, and although the year of mourning for the duke of Clarence has not yet passed.Mlle.de Lussan has been summoned twice to ap pear before her majesty, the last time in the title role of '"Carmen." Nearly a thousand pounds were spent in the pre liminary preparation of the Waterloo chamber for the performance, quite apart from the expense incurred iu brinpinp down the company and special scenery, and a large continpent of roy. alty was on hand, in brilliant, dress and handsome jewels, to pive the popular American prima donna the stimulus of appreciative applause. The queen came in dressed in black, leaning liphtly on her ebony staff, and apparently in the la-st of spirits. She applauded fre quently, tappinp her fan on the pilt table in front of her chair, and when the performance was over she presented Miss de Lussan with a diamond pin aud most cordial congratulations on her success and talent. They Are I.tfc Mules. A sea captain who was remonstrated tvith for violent lanpuapc said: "I be pan as a cabin boy and worked my way to the quarter deck, and have followed the sea all my life, so I claim to know a little about sailors, and I tell you that you can't be easy with em and make 'era work. They have to be sworn at r they don't think you amount to any thing. A foremast hand p.es ab ut business quicker aud does his work bet ter if you damn his eyes a few times than he does if you merely tell him what you waut done.
