METHODS OF FAMOUS AUTHORS How Killed Writer Constructed Ttielr I'lots and Wrote Their Hooka. Tin- methods of popular authors are utmost as interesting to the puMic us the amounts of their annunl earnings. A coiitril.ntor to II. mst hold Words has written a chapter on " Literary Met h o.i .." which is r. a !::'. lo. lt apt to he ili.-appointiiiir if the mn ire turns to it f.r instruction. For tlie ways of writers are various ami strancl y con tradictory. Some, for example, write lie: t ill luxurious studies, some ill led. .some ill prison and one or two on ex press trains. Some like jjay surround ings, soiiu- gloomy; some the luisy slir of nun, others the dee-st solitude: a hiippV few can write anywhere- mid under any conditions. The majority prefer the fresh mot-nili"; hours for composition, while others are at their licst in the drear hour of miduiht. A fain a Uw coniose with luisim -s-like reslarity. hut most l-y tits an.l starts. lloxv is the Whinner to know which to take as a model? onl ine to plot or conslrueiion the same diCicuity arises. Scott l.ean without knowing how he was to io on. 1 minus had his novel ar ranged to the smallest detail l f..re putting lcn to pa per. Uilkie Col lins pursued an i laliorate sy.-tem. Martin with a - central idea." he pro ceeded backward and f..rv.:.r I. arranir iutf and hariiioub-iii;,' puts without anv heed to serial division or to hook publication, lie was most particular about a. jfMMl lcrinnin!.r and a food end. a policy that doiil.tless won him many readers. Like liaUac. he correct ed and reeorro ted. sometimes having as many as six different proofs of a novel. Zulu shows the same con scientiousness and is rewarded by a sale of one hundred thousand copies of a new work. A lucky novelist here and there, like Mr. l'ayn or Mr. Sievt nsoii. pets a food plot in a dream and has no difficulty in the matter. Hut it is not safe to rely on dreams. On the point of style there is the same tantali.'.injr diversity, Flaubert tirjre.l his pupil, liny de Maupassant, to he ori ginal at all hazards; the advice was taken, with what result we know. Mr. Stev enson, on the other hand, played "the sedulous ape" (tin-phrase is his own i to half a dozen masters, and is reck oned one of the hest writers of I'nf plish prose livinr to-day. Clearly it is hard for the tyro to know which exam ple to follow. In peneral the readiest way to success is to have a story to tell and to t 11 it simply and naturally. ODDITIES OF TAXATION. Queer Holland lmpi-st Levied In I lie Olden I inn. The archives of Holland contain some ordinances w hieh may well he regarded lis curiosities of taxation. In the year 1 '. there was a tax imposed on all passengers traveling ill Holland by land or water. In IT'Jl this tax was still in force. In MTl a duty of live cents was levied on each person who entered a tavern before noon. Tin tax was increased tor afternoon visits. l'ersons who assembled in a private house after three o'clock in the after injun for the purpose of amusiup them selves hail each to pay u certain sum, and those who entered a place of pub lic entertainment were like wist! taxed. There was a duty on marriages and deaths. The amount of the tax varied according to the social position of the parties; while in the case of a person buried outside of the district in which he had lived, the amount payable by his executor :i. doubled. Cut the most curious lav of all was one imposed in h'TI on bo. it s a nil shoes In order to prevent I In- impost from be inp evaded, each of those articles so essential to human comfort had to be conspicuously marked on the upper leather with the stamp of the maker, and also w it h t hat of the taxiup olh ccr. The Mini to be paid was reirulated by the size of the hoot or shoe. So. apart from the tpic.-.l'nii of beauty, in those days it w as a real advantage to have a small foot. A LAKE WITH A ROOF. A Itody of Water in siiM-ri;. Tlmt Ii4 ('rutt ed 1 iter w ii h slt. A correspondent of the Oeotrraphieal Magazine describes a weuliar lake of Siberia. At tirst viv,-xx it was a vast plain, surrounded by tiel.lv nf ripeniiiLT wheat. The season was midsummer. The preat ;alt lake at olwU.rsk is ninu miles wide and seventeen miles lon;r. yet except in a few places it is solidly roofed over with a lcxsit of salt which is petting thicker and thicker every year. Our puide. w ho is an old man. said that he could remember when the sali crystals lirst bepan to pather upon the surface of the water. Year by year, owinp to the evaporation of the water, the vrystuls became more numerous, and then caked topether till this preat roof formed. In Is7s the water beneath this salt crystal roof found an iinderproiind outlet into the Liver obi. This low ered the lake's surface about three feet, leavinp that distance between the water and the roof. l.ookinp down throuph one of the opeiiiups matle for the purpose in the roof, we saw a low-shied small boat. Our puitle put us one at a time into the Ixiat. We lay llat on our backs and looked up at the curiously beautiful salt ccilinp overhead. We propelled the boat by pushinp w ith our hands apainst the irrepularitiesof the roof. The puide held a lonp rope attached to the lxiat to prevent our poinp too far and pettinp lost a thinp he said it was easy to do. It was like a palace of enchantment, with the sun shiiiinp tlown throuph the salt crystals, the colors were so rich ami wonderful. Matiy sprinps surround this lake. Their water Hows over the roof and evaporates there, and thus continually adds to its thickness. After many years the sprinps will probably Ik-coiuc choked with their own deposits, and then the whole will pradually liecome covered with earth, and so a preat salt mine will Iks formed a treasure for the Silx-rians hundreds of years to come. Illiteruey anil Crime. The iiuudier of prisoners confined in seventeen stales is 11U.53S, and ainoiip these the illiterates, in proportion to numbers, contribute six times their quota. The records in the towns show au even preater proportion of crime amonp the ipnorant and the illiterates, which for the whole country furnish to each thousand of persons eipht times as many prisoners as those who can read and write. It is plain from these facts that our schools have al ready preatly reduced the amount of crime, and that when we shall have buceeeded in pettinp ri.l of all illitera cy we w ill still furtherreduce the num ber of criminals. Itetryed Ity a lia-va nf Tolutreo. The other nipht a shop on one of the boulevards in Paris was broken into, ami a stroiip lox was found in the inorninp wrenched on an.l with the contents missinp. At lirst it was thoupht that the biirplar had left no trace, but on a careful examination (f the ttoor a piece of chewed tobacco was discovered. This caused suspicion to rest on a former employe who was piv en to usinp tobacco in that particular way. He was found and convicted. In order to understand this incident Americans should recollect that the accomplishment of totacci-chcwinp in out a general one in Europe. 1c fe-.'-,--;.ra mm JAMES R.

Onions, saiil a traveling man tn a St. Louis tilolte-IK mixrat reMrt.'r, are too vtK-iferous in their odor and too self-assi-ttive to be .liked by anyone lt.is'-ss-il of a very strong-will. They ortYr too much opposition. There is nii.lv. to the onion, however, than itt nu rv talor. Onions are a kind of all around tfoitd medicine and every housewife knows this without knovv iti' vvliy. She know that a solid red onion, eaten at Wdtiine, will by the noxt morning break tlie severest cold. !iv ul a knows that onions make a t-otd jila-ter to remove inllammation and littarM-ueaS. ltut she does not know why. If anyone would take an onion and mush it, so as to secure all of the juice in it, he would have inot re liiai Ual.:-- sim-Uiiii? salts an tdor that would uiet the mo.it nervous (MTMin in no time. The strength of it iithah d for a few moments will dull the sense of smell and weaken the i,i-rves .until sleep is produced from : het-r exhaustion. It all eomes from one property possessed by the onion, au.l that is a form of opium. Onions are narcotic in their tendencies, and fur that reason the very bc.t kind of food, .iinne who eats a late supper and imagines that he will not e able to sleep had lictterorder a dish of fried tin iotis and cloe his meal w ith them. There will be no daug-er of wakeful ness then. The amount of opium in a saucerful of fried unions will overpowor tin? most, sensitive digestive organs, even when disturbed by a late meal, and one can sleep just as well as though no meal had Iteen eaten. The Chinese un.lt-r ,taml the onion better than the other nations of the earth. A China man will mix dried onion sprigs w ith tobacco and smoke them. The' prob ably rind it lends additional charm to a frcnial pipe and brings on that condi tion of dreamy wakefulness which is the final end of all smoking. CURIOUS GROWTH OF RATTAN. TouKli Wiwd of the Cllaublut: favlan Trw Ir'iiuiid lu the Malayan Countries. Everyone knows the prett3', li-htand praeeful chairs and other articles of furniture made from rattan, but every one dites not know that the extremely tnuli and flexible wood called rattan is that of the climbing palm tree. This curious climltcr, which is more of a vine than a tree, is said by the Phila delphia Times to be one of the singular characteristics of forest jrrowth in tlie VU-les and other Malayan countries. Starting with a trunk a little thicker than a man's arm, it winds through the forest, now wrapping a tall tree in its fold, like some g-itrantic snake, and thin descending a train to the earth and trailing along in suakelike curves until it can hml some other stately tree to fasten and climb upon in its pursuit of light and air. The forest is so thick and jungle-like that it sit-ins iiiittossible to follow the course of any of those serpent climbers, but thi-rv- ir. little doubt that at the last the successful aspirant, which stooped and cringed so long below, will lie found shooting up like a flags t a IT a dozen feet or more above the tree which has helN-d it to rise. A use of rattan w hieh is unknown to those w ho han not seen it in its native forest is as a water -arrier. The thirsty traveler has at all times a tumbler of cool, re freshing water at his command by cut ting o IT six or eight feet of rattan and putting one of the severed ends to his mouth or holding it over a dish to catch the water. NOT A MODERN INVENTION. The Itia-ya-le Said to Hate lleen Kirat Ity a Vouuk t rench I'll) aia-aatu lu 11166. "The popular ttclief is that the bi t'U'li' in a nitalern invention, when in fact it really dates back to the st-veti-teenth century," said Dr. T. C. Minor, according to the Cincinnati Star. '"I learned this me day when 1 was mak ing some translations from the Jour nal de Medicine de i'aris. Ozaraiu. in lt'.'.H. in his 'Mathematical and l'hysical lo-cra ations,' tells of a carriage, as he calls ii, "in which one can ride without the use of horses. And then h goes onto tell of how a lackey sits at the back, makes it run by 'walking alter nately with his two feet by means of two small wheels concealed in a case just ltotvvecn the wheels behind and attached to the axle of the carriage.' This was the xr'uciple of the veloci tede. so much improved since then. I.ut the priority of the discovery of tlu- bicycle 1 believe to be cstabli'-hed without further argument or dispute. It was by a physician. Kl I la. ic hard, a young physician of Kochelle. France, who made the first machine after which our modern bicycle is pat terned, lie was a medical student in I'aris in li''.ii. and became one of the great physicians of France. He died at the age of sixty-one at Kochelle in ITin'i. and there is a street in Kochelle named for him. and there is now a movement on foot to erect a bronze statue, uot to Michaud, who it is claimed was the discoverer of the bicy cle, but to the true discoverer, lir. Kli Kichard." MOVEMENT OF INDIAN PEOPLE. Uliluaa May Krui.rry, anil the Marraaaa;e of lnijvnla la Lews I'owbuhi. The report of the last census in Iten gal, which has just Iteen published, up sets several lieliefs w hieh hitherto have found general acceptance. For in stance, it proves that the natives, in stead of being averse to leaving their ancestral villages, are steadily moving from more densely peopled areas to those where the population is less crowded; also that widow remarriage is practically universal in Ilchar, J.lris sa. t'hota-Xagjgire and among the low er castes of llengal proper and is un known only among a very few high castes everywhere and the more re spectable Sudras of ltengal proper. The report also states that infant mar riage does not exist to any appreciable extent except in northeast llehar and among the Krahmins, Kayasths and other purely Sudra castes of western Ucngal. It also shows the great prog ress of Mohammedanism, which has in creased more than nine per cent, in llengal proper in the last decade, w hile the increase in Hinduism is less than fire jter cent. This fact is explained to be due to the desire on the part of the lowest castes to adopt a religion w hieh treats all men as eiiuals. Turk. Io Not Love that Premier. The Turkish government has set up a new literary staudard which is likely to prove trouLilesome to travelers in that country. The hand of the eeusor has been raised against that delight ful old "Tartarian" of Daudet and against all biographers of the ('.rand Old Man. It seems that the hero of Tarasa-on wearing a fez which adorned the cover of the Frenchman's book sub jected that to condemnation, while the oflicial dislike to the latter kind of literature was brought out at a con ference of the Itritish embassy at Con stantinople in behalf of an American bishop. The Kritish envoy was anxious that the bishop should be set at liberty, and said that there was no case against him. "What! no case?" said the Turk ish oflicial. "What do you say to this evi.lenc of guilt?" And be thereupon produced a life of Mr. Gladstone which had been found in the potaesslou ajf the unfortunate bishop. 1) SAVE YOCK MONEY- No better ay than l.y careful and ju dicious liuyiii.
