The car rocked from side to sido and lomctimcs it seemed as though all the wheels ou one sido were off the track at once. The conductor staggered along, catching hold of scats now and then to eteady himself, and the pallid railway official stopped him. "Conductor," he said, "this is an aw ful lough stretch of road." "-No rougher thau it has always been," replied the conductor. There's some thing like forty miles of it just the same right ahead of us." "But aren't you running frightfully fast?" asked the pallid official, catching hold of the window-sill to keep from being thrown into the aise. "We're doing pretty well," returned the conductor, as he grabbed hold of a seat to keep from diving into the offi cial's lap. "We're making up time. The stations are some distance apart along hero, and it gives us a chance. We've got to get in on time." "Get in where—heaven?" asked the official, as ho braced his knees against the back of the seat ahead of him and took an extra strong hold on the win dow-sill. "You signal the engineer to slow up." "But, sir, this is the stretch you've always ordered us to mako up time on, because there are so few stations." "I have?" said the railroad official in terrogatively. "Yes, sir, whenever we're late you wire us to make it up right along here." "I wire you?" "Yes, sir." "Well, that's when I'm sitting in the arm-chair in my office. I don't mind if you're two hours late to-day."— Chicago Tribune. Rentiu? Artificial Flowers. "What an ideal Bless you, florists aro bad enough, but tlioy have not yot stooped so low as to hire out flowers for funerals." Thus spoke a Fifth avenue dealer in fancy nosegays the other day. "But you loan doves to undertakers sometimes ?" "Yes, and to the churches 011 special occasions; but loaning flowers for a funeral, why, it is limply preposter ious 1" "It is said to be done every day iti the city." "Yes, there nre dealers in artificial flowers who do that business, but not florists." I visitod the largest artificial flowers and foliage concern in this city. "A great many poor people," said a member of the firm, "order potted flowers and tropical plants of us for funerals. We charge ten per cent, for their use, and in many instances the flowers might better have been pur chased out and out. Take our foliage bouquets, composed of begonias, colons, gcrauiuin and ivy—they come cheap, and it is poor economy to hire them. But people of small means like the im mediate saving, and the long run is not taken into account. For church j funerals we sell large quantities of chrys- I anthemums, roses, ti<*or and calla lilies, j hyacinths, etc. Natural flowers aro | somotimes represented on the same altar, and it is impo;ible to tell which is which. The imitation of common flow ers has boon reduced to a fine art. One can hardly believe how rapidly artiflcal plants have sprung into favcr, even among the rich. They are used in ball rooms, theatres, restaurant windows, stores and almost everywhere. We havo some well known varieties so skilful ly made that they would doceivo tho most learned botanist at a little dis tance.—New York Herald. Pine Cones, the New Potato. A few years ago a scientist in Japan discovered a plant, tho tuberous roots of which closely resembled the common po tato. Samples of this new-found tuber ! were sent to Paris and Berlin's cxperi j mental botanists to report upon. Those reports have all been favorable to tho ! new tuber, which lias been extensive in troduced into nearly all Europeau coun tries. This year a number of farmers iu 1 Wisconsiu and Minnesota planted largo ! crops of the new potato under the direc j tion and advisemet of Albert Meyer, the chemist of Stillwater, in the last-uamcd State. The scientific name of the plant is Stachys tuberifera, the common nntne, "pine cones," having been bestowed on account of their form. Some authorities call it Stachys affinis, and still others have it Stachys Sieboldii, Siebold hav ing been the discoverer. They are cultivated in the same man ner as the common potat , and nre much more prolific,as high as JioO of tho tubers forming in one hill. They nre hardly as large as our common potato, but 200 of them would fill a much larger measure than 100 potatoes would, a comparison which will give some idea of their onor mous yield. The analysis of the plant is: Water 78.38 Protein 1.50 Amide 1.01! Fat O.IS Carbonhydrate (principi galactan) 10.57 Cellulose ". 0.73 Ashes 1.03 There is neither starch or sugar in the j composition, but galactan, a substance between both. They are clear and ; white, and frost does not hurt them in ' the least. Their taste is something like that of the potato, and they aro not peeled before cooking.— St. Louit He public. The Moustache and Character. As the form of the upper lip and the regions about it has largely to do with tho feelings, pride, self reliance, manli ness, vanity, and other qualities that give self control, the moustache is con nected with the expression of thoso | qualities or the reverse. • ! When the moustache is ragged, and, as it were, flying hither and thither, there is a lack of proper self control. When it is straight aud orderly the re verse is the case, other things, of course, taken into account. ' If there is a tendency to curl at the outer ends of tho moustache there is a tendency to ambition,vanity and display. When the curl turns upward there is [ geniality, combined with a love of ap probation; when tho inclination is down ; ward thero is a more sedate turn of mind, , not accompauied with gloom. It is worthy > of remark that good natured men will, in playing with the moustache, invari ably give it an upward inclination, - whereas cross grained or morose men will put it obliquely downward.—National ' Barber. i Ranching In Florida. Kanching though the least known, is the oldest industry iu Florida. For a great number of years cattle raising for the Cuban aud West Indian markets has been an occupation of the activo Flori dan. From Punta Gordaaud Puntalias sa, ports of Charlloic harbor, about 10,- 000 head of cattle arc annually exported to Cuba. They are not fattened, and, indeed, are only rounded up just before exportation; consequently tho beef is wretched stuff, and the sl4 or $lB paid for each ot the beeves may be considered quite as much as they are worth. The pasture is poor and the breed still poor er; and, although there is a movement afoot to improve both, there cau be little doubt that as the southern Countries are settled, herds will diminish in size and the range of pasturage be greatly restrict ed. Ranching as ranching will gradu ally die, and dairy farming will reign in its stead.— McMillan's Magazine. The Lovell Safety* A NEW BICYCLE WHICH THE PUBLIC LLKTH. Wbilo thousands within the last decade have enjoyed the sport of cycliug* the fact is nevertheless obvious that itiaily thtitlsands more have been deteri'ed from tenjoying it in consequence of the high prices demanded for a reoliy good wheel. It Remained for the John P. Lovell Arms Company of Boston to change this state of af fairs. It was last year that the public first be came aware that there was a new low-priced safety bicycle on the market, a wheel strictly high grade, and equal in every particular to any manufactured in America or Europe. As previous to this all manufacturers had charged a very large price for a first-class wheel, the John P. Lovell Arms Company is there 1 ore the first house that has ever offered the jrablio saoh it wheel at a price tn&t does not place it beyond the reach of the average person's purse. The company that manufac tures this wheel (the Lovell Diamond Safety) is one of the oldest of all the. manufacturing and mercantile houses in New England, hav ing been established ill 184<>. Besides being now one of the leading bicycle firms in the United State-*, the John P. Lovell j Arms Company is and has been for years a well-known manufacturer and dealer in fire arms and snorting goods of every description. Un June 13 of last year, tho firm celebrated its hall-century anniversary. The founder of this enterprising house, .Mr. John I\ L-oVell, although over 7o voars of age, is still an im portant and active member of this world famed house. lllg Flail Are not catight in a cistern: yet how many men are speualng their time day after day fishing in a rain-barrel.
