ALONG PICCADILLY. There the Tide of Socinl London Fiona to the Fullest. l'lcciidilly seems cold and blatant bj contrast as one charges down it. Yet even here, be the sunshine ever sc bright, the visitor is crowned in the pearly haze that tones, attenuates, mil lies, most if not all of London, thai haze that has tantalized and defeated bow many artists! Even over I'iccadil ly. even over this the most mundane ol all London streets, it throws its saviiif glamour. Indeed the whole splendid avenue might serve for a studio, not for Its values alone, but for the com plexity of the types that throng it.

In Frozen UiimkIii. In Itnssia. where the cold in winter Is very Intense, the markets are very curi ous things. The meat Is frozen, tiu car casses of dead animals, as sheep and pigs, stand upright outside the stalls: everything, even game and poultry, re quires to be thawed before it can he cooked, and the market people's dress is as picturesque as It is warm and comfortable. Then the rivers arc frozen over nil the winter long, and so thick Is the let that every cue can skate anywhere and any time. Stalls are put up on the ice and busy markets held there. In the, Asiatic pari of Itnssia the peo ple live chiefly by hunting mid fishing. and the tin- of the fiusslan animals is very beautiful the ermine, fox, sable, sea otter and others. At the end of the winter, when the snow melts, the huntsman pursues the elk. wearing long shoes. In which he can glide over the snow very quickly, while the poor elk sinks Into the snow deeper and deeper every step and is nt last overtaken nnd killed. Ills Two Pnrrlmxe. A story is told of n Louisiana rner cliant who came to New York deter mined to secure n bargain. He wanted cheap cloaks, and ufter trying iu vain to suit himself at the wholesale honse he bought a job lot at auction. He ex amined the goods hurriedly nnd had them shipped home., In. due time he was confronted by an excited head salesman who said the garments were out of style. 'They didn't look that way," said the merchant. "But they are," replied the clerk. The merchant persisted that the cloaks would sell, but they didn't. In desperation he returned them to New York to be disposed of to best advan tage. On his next trin to New York he again visited an auction house aim bought a lot of cloaks. When he re turned home and examined his pur chase he saw that he had bought the same lot ns before. World's Work. The lllril MonnpnlUt. As is generally known, the cuckoo lays Its eggs iu the nests of other birds, leaving them to be hatched and the young cuckoos reared by their foster parents. Tho young cuckoo throws the other birds out of the nest and gets all the care Itself. After murdering its foster brothers and sisters In the most deliberate and callous way it is thence forth tended with the greatest devo tion. Long after it has left the nest the great bird, apparently big enough to get Its own living and many times larger than Its foster parents.

TRAMPS ARE WELL POSTED. As a General Rale Tliey Are Careful nd Constant Headers. Most tramps are omnivorous readers, nnd they are posted upon a wide range of topics. In speaking of tramp read ers, a man who has had a chance to study these peripatetic students said the other day: "You hardly ever lind a genuine hobo that Is an Ignoramus. You And lots of men who are tramping who are doing so because they haven't intelligence enough to earn a living, but I uui speak ing of the real hobo, who Is u wanderer from choice and who would not work if he had the chance. These fellows are pretty wise, I can tell you. They can tell you more about what is going on in Kuropean politics than a college professor can, and they know almost everything that Is coining off in our own country for the next six months. "When you are traveling you will no tice the hoboes sitting along the rail road (rack reading n frayed and soiled newspaper. Often you will see thein picking up the loose pages lying in the streets, and I do not believe I ever saw traces of a tramp's camp fire around which there was not left one or move old newspapers, where they had been cast aside after reading. Then the tramps have n sort of trav eling library, too. that few people have ever heard of. If one tramp finds an old magazine he will read It and then pass it to some other tramp. It keeps going the rounds in this way until it is worn out. If one picks up a book some place it does service In trainpdoiu for nionths; "1 never saw a tramp with a fresh paper in his hand, but I have never run across one of the wanderers that did not show he was a careful and constant reader." Chicago Inter Ocean. All Honored Chinaman. Queen Victoria, with the prince con sort and her family, attended in state the opening of the great exhibition of 18.11. While the choir was singing the "Halleluiah Chorus" a Chinaman su perbly robed suddenly emerged from the crowd and prostrated himself lo fore the throne. No one knew who he was. lie might be the emperor of Chi na himself come secretly to England to share iu the great doings. The lord elniiiibcrlaln. greatly perplexed, applied to the queen and the prince tor alivice and instructions. He was informed that there must ls no mistake as to the stranger's rank and that It would be best to place him between the arch bishop of Canterbury and the Huke of Wellington. In this: position of honor the Cliluaiuan. with magnificent dig nity, walked through the buildings to the delight nnd nmaxicmciit of all who watched. Next day It was discovered that he was the keeper of a Chinese junk which had just cast anchor In tho Thames and which everybody was In vited to visit on payment of a shilling a head. A JnpnneHP Custom. In .lapan the well to do have almost always in their houses one room called the "chamber of the Inspiring view." ( Its essential Is n beautiful view, but taste Is catholic in Japan, and the de lightful view may be a blossoming cherry tree, a glimpse of a river, a miniature garden or only the newly fallen snow. In this delightful country they get up parties to visit the maple trees In the glory of autumn color or the fresh, untrodden snow, as lu this country one gives theater parties and dinners. .Mushroom hunts are a fash ionable diversion, and verse writing anil harp playing arc occupations which, iu the estimation of these eter nal children, be tit the gentlewoman when she Is within doors. Ahout Fishes. l-'lsh are nearly the same weight ns the -water in which they live, so that i they can move in it with great ease, j The majority of them also have an air j bladder inside of the body, which en- j ables them to go up or down in the i water at will. When a llsh desires to go down deep it can press the air out of this bladder by means of certain muscles and thus Increase the weight of its body, anil when it wishes to rise again it takes off the pressure, the bladder tills with air again and its body becomes light enough to rise. It Never Fails. Thompson's Barosma has never been known to fail to cure any disease of the Kidneys, Liver and Bladder ; also Rheumatism, Sciatica, Palpitation of the Heart, Nervous Debility, and Female Weakness. Thompson's Barosma reduces all the inflammation, neutralizes the acid and dissolves gravel, carrying off all matter that is poisonous to the blood, stomach heart, kidneys and liver. It is purely vegetable and pleasant to take. No opiate in any form is used in its manufacture. It can be taken by all ages and has cured many children of non-retention or bedwetting. "I had been troubled with rheumatism ever since I was eighteen years old, and when I went into the drug store I had little faith in Thompson's Barosma. I have taken six bottles of Karosimi nnd am better than I have been iu twelve years. I can work every day, something I had not done in ten years. Thomp-wn's Barosma regu lates my whole system and I am stronger and better in every way, nnd nm glad to bear this testimony. Thanks to Thompson's Bnrosnia." Johnson N. Dunn, Troy Center, Fenn'a. If costive, Thompson's Dandelion and Mandrake Tills should be taken with Barosma. They are purely vegetable and do not gripe. Fine Scorn of the Cheap lint.
