Ever sinco the war the proportion of farmer immigrants to this country has rapidly and stendily diminished, most of the wage-earners appearing to come from classes that did not follow the plow. Jane Addams, of Hull House, Chi cago, in an address before the Pan American Congress upon the "Settle ment Idea," explained that the term means a group 'of persons iu good eircumstnnces who settle iu nn indus trial ami depressed district in the city and exert ail the good they can. Fame is fleeting, muses the New York Journal, It isn't so very long since Dr. Koch, tlio famous German discoverer of tlio "consumption cure," was almost worshiped. Of late, how ever, where ho is best known, tablets and other mementos glorifying him have been quietly removed or de stroyed. In 1890 there were nearly -1,000,0(10 women and girlsamotig the class called wage-earners iu the United States. Their number had increased in fen years over 1,200,000, or moro than forty per cent. In the various branches of trade the increase iu female em ployes was 210 per cunt. Tills is duo to the rapid utilization of women as accountants, cashiers, clerks, stenog raphers; typewriters and the like. During the same period the number engaged in the professions show a great increase, in many instances the percentage of increase being far larger for women than for men. The attendants of the Dibliotherpio Nationale, in Taris, to the astonish ment of visitors, all travel around at tending to their duties with their noses and nostrils completely covered with a most grotesquo looking shield or respirator. It appears that in handling the books culled for by patrons of the library the dust causes them the utmost catarrhal anguish. Rendered desperate by their suffer ings they appealed to an eminent member of tho medical college, who invented tho amusing but useful ap paratus especially for their relief. So fur its results are said to bo perfectly satisfactory. Joseph Choate, of the New York bar, in a recent address, brought out the surprising fact that with 30,000,- 000 people England does not lmvc no many judges as any one of our larger States. In England there are thirty two judges of the first class, while New York has 140 and Illinois 178. The English courts dispose of business more rapidly than ours, and yet liti gation is much lighter in that eountrv than it is here. Just complaints are made of our complicated judicial ma chinery, the facilities afforded for ap peals and new trials, and the indul gences granted to lawyers who are fighting for delay. In almost uny case, when it is to tho interest of a lawyer to prolong the proceedings, it is impossible to secure a prompt and ffnal decisiou. Commenting on Mr. Choate's addres tho St. Louis Globe- Democrat savs: "The truth is that in our anxiety to provido ample means for tho adjustment of legal difficulties wo have made our judicial system n source of endless trilling with tho interests of tho people. Our mul tiplicity of statutes is directly con ducive to litigiitiou, and the courts at tach so much importance topreeedents and technicalities that the lawyers can keep a case in course of trial almost as long as they please. In England, where there is supposed to be much more formality than in tho United States, tlm ordinary practice is far less slow nud uncertain than thai which prevails hero. We have so many judges nud so many different tribunals that n case may bo taken from one to another on various pretexts, and the expense is apt to exceed the amount involved in a majority of cases. There is certainly great need of reform in this matter. It should bo easier for tho average citizen to obtain a deci siou from some court of full and linal jurisdiction, which is to say that it should not bo so easy for tho lawyers to protract all sorts of lawsuits. Too many of our courts exist solely for tbo purpose of giving solemn and leisurely consideration to technical and unim portant pleas. The whole system ought to be simplified, iu short, with a view to saving tirno and money by removing all chances for cases to bo continued and transferred exoept for sound and conclusive reasons."

Shadow tableaux or pictures have >oen before presented to you under the name of silhouettes, that have been dmwn for the most part singly. while lie present ones are represented in FlflMtK no. |. croups, some of which an* really very laughable. The pletures can only be diown at night in a darkened room, and ill excellent way to produce those illtis Irated with living models is as follows: First erect a small platform or stage, and front the ceiling in front of it sus pend a large white sheet of not too •lose or lirm weave, permitting it to reach to the lloor of the platform. He hind the sheet stand the performers. I'liii ni: NO. 2. between it and a light, a lantern having a funnel shaped reflector being the best for amateur entertainments of this harneter. By the aid of such a light 1 the figures are silhouetted or outlined ' against the sheet in the same manner is a shadow is east on a blank wall by placing a light behind the substance. The audience will of course sit in darkness a few feet from the platform. The performers will take the various r !

It ( should be said at once that the blood sucking mosquito is always a female. I The male mosquito is a well-behaved in sect and only drinks water. Projecting from the mosquito's head in the picture of the complete insect will be seen a straight cylinderical spike. It is a tube or trough, no thicker than a hair, and is terminated by two small fleshy lips. This ( tube contains the instruments by menus of which the mosquito penetrates the hu arranges tUe various poses will seo that nothing Is wanting to perfect the pic ture before the curtain Is allowed to bo fH 1 ) FIOiriCB NO. 4. raised. Of course the curtain Is indis pensable. It should be huug frdin a pole and may be drawn back by a cord which has been slipped through the rings and fastened to the front upper corner of the curtain. The hand which draws back the curtain should not be visible to the audience. The master of ceremonies announces each subject as the curtain is lifted. The tableaux portrayed at figure No. 1 shows a boy patting his little sister kindly on the hack. Sister is sulky and will not be consoled or persuaded to give up her toy cart. "A Little Sul ky" might do as a name for this. "The Sleeepers," pictured at figure Florins NO. 5. No. 2. are rudely disturbed from their noonday hap on a park bench by a polieeman. They should wear very lagged clothes and look like tramps. At figure No. .'I are pictured a foreign looking student and his sister, or some nearer relative, taking refreshments at a table, which is arranged beneath some foliage, frool which dangles i spider, whose presence startles the thirsty pair. "A Summer Table" would be a very good title for this. An appropriate title for the picture shown at figure No. 4 will be "A Carry all at Home." Papa kindly lends his FIGUHK NO. 0.

I Tandem driving is very fashionable, and you might dignify the picture shown at figure No. r> by the name "Driving Tandem." Brother, crowned with papa's high beaver hat, holds two chairs in rein as proudly as if they were horses, and flourishes his whip threat eningly. Sister, with dolly in arms, rides behind. Doesn't it look real? "After the Circus." shown at figure No. (I, is no loss comical than any of the man skin, tills herself with blood and leaves behind a deposit of virulent poison. No less than six piercing instruments are contained within that little tube. They are shown in the picture of the bead and elsewhere on n - till larger MM!.-. When the mosquito settles down to business, all these instruments are pressed on to the skin at once, nnd a very intricate boring operation begins. The trough-like lower lip may be seen to bend in the middle, and the mosquito fills herself with blood, which passes Into the body through the upper lip. It is believed that the instru ment attached to the base of the upper lip is used to inject poison into the wound. other tableaux. All the figures seem to be In action. The girl la dancing on an ottoman, the boy, with a young child on his back, occupies two clmlrs and a third serves as a horse, whose reins ho holds In both hands. The ilog stands on Ills hind legs in a curious manner and looks attentively at his muster, who Is absorbed In driving. Isn't the tableaux given at figure No. 7 extremely funny? You might name it "Four-in-Hund." The schoolmaster has four seemingly repentant transgres sors to punish. His cane looks formid able and his face wears a very angry expression. The broom, umbrella, "stovepipe" bat, and other odds and ends may bo supplied or omitted, as desired. I think their introduction FIGUHE NO. 7. would add to the effect of the picture, however. The various titles, you will observe, are a play upon words, but this will only add to the fun of the performance. You may easily arrange an evening's entertainment during the holiday week Willi the assistance of the present Illus trations and surprise some of your grown friends. The big people in the pictures might be represented by some older boys and girls. A few rehearsals will be necessary before you can finally ring up the curtain on a perfect repre sentation of these Jolly shadow pic tures. -The Delineator. Suggested Long Ago. A correspondent of the Popular Sci ence Mo.itlily calls attention to n curi ous foreshadowing of the Invention of the phonograph in a hook published at Paris in lllod—of an imaginary visit to the states and empires of the moon— "Historic Coniique des Hints et Empires do la Luno," by Cyrano de Hergeme. The author imagines himself, in the course of his lunar travel, left by his guide to pass an hour with some books. They do not resemble earthly books, but are little boxes. "On opening one of these boxes I found I know not what kind of metal similar to our clockwork, composed of I know not how many little devices and imperceptible machinery. It was a book certainly, but a most marvelous one, which has neither leaves nor char acters; a book to understand which the eyes are useless—one needs only use his ears. "When one wishes to read this book, he connects it by a sort of little nerve to his ears. Then he turns a needle to the chapter that he wishes to hear, and immediately there emerges from the instrument, as from the mouth of a man or from a musical instrument, all the words and sounds which serve the grands lunaires for language." The writer adds that Cyrano antici pated many aeronautic inventions, and was, of course, considered by his con temporaries as a cervenu brule, or in blunt English, "somewhat off." Tills, ibs well as the above, only goes to prove that there is nothing new under the sun. Koine Old Human Millionaires. It seems to ine that, taken In general, we are a very ignorant lot of people in this last decade of the nineteenth cen tury. < Mir wealth, much as we boast of it. is comparatively puny compared with the wealth of men of old. There was Marc Antony's house that was sold to Messala for over half a million, and Scaurus' villa was burned at a loss of over twelve millions. Otlio spent over fourteen millions In finishing one wing of a palace com menced by Nero. Nearly $11(5,000,000 was found in the coffers of Tiberius, and Caligula spent It all in less than a year. Pauliis could make a little tri lling present to the mother of Brutus of a pearl worth over $30,000. So let us be modest. We are a cheap people, even the wealthiest of us. Recently Discovered. It Is an id that, a new material has been discovered in one of the Western States—which one will not be told for a while yet—that may make its finder fabulously rich. The material answers the purpose of graphite in every way. Outside of the imported graphite, the mines at Ticonderoga have supplied a great part of the stuff from wlilch the leads of pencils are made. The discov ery lias been kept very quiet, but the stuff is said to answer all the require ments, and can be sold for one-half the price of the present material. Mermaids in Folk Lore. All the world over there are legends about mermaids. The Chinese tell stories not unlike others about the sea i women of their southern seas. Man kind is taught on the most excellent evi dence that a mermaid was captured at Bangor, on the shores of tlie Belfast Lough, in the sixth century, while an other caught, at Edam in 1403 was car ried to Haarlem and kept there for many years.

Take ono or two chickens, cut oft the legs, rumps and wings. Egg and I bread crumb them, and broil thorn 1 over a clear firo a light brown. Pull j tho flesh from tho remaining part into littlo flakes.

Put in tho pulled chicken and toss it j over the tire. Then put it into the ] centre of a dish with tho back on it S and the logs and wings around it. A squoezo of a lemon added the last thing, and the peel of one-fourth of a lemon minced line and added to tho pulled chicken is an improvement.— Boston Cultivator. BERHY PIES. Make any sort of a berry pie as di rected for apples only, dredge a littlo flour over before putting on upper crust, and add no flavoring, as tho fruit has sufficient. For any sort of fruit pie, whoro an entire upper crust iH not desired, cut tho paste into narrow strips, like a lat tice work, or, if no upper crust is liked, make a merangue by beating the whites of three eggs to a stiff froth, and mix with tlieui a heaping table spoonful of powdered sugar, flavor with any flavoring preferred. When tho pie is done, pull it forward in oven, cover with merangue, and let it stand in tho oven till a light umber color; then remove and stand in a cold, dry place till ready to serve. Never put a pie of any sort in a re frigerator ; it destroys the quantity of tho crust and makes tho whole pie flavorless and heavy.—New York Mer cury, GHERKINS. Choose young cucumbers and let tliem bo freshly gathered. Four over them a strong brine of salt and water boiling hot, cover them close and al low to stand until next day. Stir tliem gently to remove any sand ; drain on a sieve. To every quart of vinegar use half ounce each of whole black popper, ginger and allspice, ono ounce mus tard seed and two cloves of garlic. Al low tho vinegar to become boiling hot, plaoe the pickles in a jar and pour tho boiling water over them. Cover the top of pickles with vine leaves, allow to stand for a day; if the pickles aro not of a good green iu color, heat tho vinegar to almost boiling and pour it over them again, covering with fresh vino leaves. (As an additional reason for preparing them at home, it is well known that the lino green color of "store" pickles is duo to tho uso of copper). When tho pickles aro cold put in a sprig of dill and bo sure to cover closely. They will bo exceed ingly crisp and of a lino green.— American Agriculturist. FACTS FOR PRUDENT HOUSEWIVES.

I Tho way of overy man is doclarativo | of the ond of that man. | Tho way of tho world is to raako laws but follow customs. ! Every man has just as much vanity as 110 wants understanding. | Our wealth is often a snare to our j solves and always a temptation to ' others. | Opinions grounded on prejudice aro : always sustained with the greatest violence. Youth is tho season of hope, enter prise and onorgy to a Nation as well as an individual. To bo innocent is to bo not guilty, I but to be virtuous is to overcome our evil intentions. 'Tis oue thing to bo at liberty to do what wo will, and another thing t> bo tiod up to do what wo must. Tho prodigal robs his heir, tho miser robs himself. The middle way is, justice to ourselves and others. As riches and favor forsake a man, wo discover him to bo a fool—but uobody could llud it out in his pros perity. Tho seat of pride is in the heart, and ouly there; and if it bo not there, it is neither in tho look nor in thj clothes. What a Blind Farmer is Doing. 11. S. llumiston, tho blind farmer and heal of the Chicago colony at Hammond, La., is in tho city. "The first time I was in Chicago," said Mr. llumiston, 4, 1 ha Imy sight. It was long boforo tho war, and tho city was being raised so that it could have a drainage system. With many of tho boys, I onlistod when the war came 011, aud with General Sherman I murcliod through sections of all but two of tho Southeru States. I told tho boys I would com J back to live. I did not kuow then that tho war would cost me my eyesight, but it di.l, so I determined to take to farming. I bought ton acros 011 the liue of tho Illinois Central in Louisiana, and be came tho lirst of tho Northern colo nists. "Tho place I now have is but ten acres, and I know every treo aud shrub. My blindness ilid not prevent me from helping to cut down the dense forest and make the ground ready for seed. I wanted to show what a Northern man could do. My only companions and help are my wife and sisters, yet I ship enough fruit back to Chicago to net me 83033 a year. I call my little farm Mentor, because it has beeu my teacher. I knew nothing about horticulture win 11 I started it; now I havo learned much and am sur rounded by a colony of old comrades. By getting a lew more Chicagoaus down our way, with tho assistance of those wo leave behind, wo will soon make this city tho center of Southern trade, instead of Now York, and that is ouo thiug our colony is trying to do."

UNCLE SAM WILL BUILD A FLY ING MACHINE. A Monster of the Heavens Destined to Protect Us From Our Enemies —Will Be Tried at Den ver Next Year. I JHE officials of the army Signal I f Servico have practically de -1 cided to build a flying raa (i chine. When completed it will bo used in a series of experiments whoso object will bo to determine, if possible, the practicability of artificial soaring flight. The apparatus will probably bo on the aeroplane or aerocurvo design, and is calculated to throw considerable light on tho rela tive merits of a device of that order and tho balloou, which latter vehiclo of aerial locomotion has beou tho ob ject of study by military men during tho past few years. The construction of tho flying ma chine will probably bo under tho supervision of Captain Glassford, of the Department of Colorado, who, under General Greeley, Chiof Signal Oflicer, U. S. A., has been carrying 011 extensivo experi ments in military ballooning for tho past three years. Captain Glassford is making preparations for an exten sive exhibit to be instituted in connec tion with tho Denver Exposition to open July 1, 181)0, says tho Phila delphia Times. This exhibit will illustrate many of tho conspicuous phases of military aeronautics. A whole department of tho Exposition will bo devoted to nero-dynamics, and in all probability tho War Department will give Captain Glassford permission to take charge of it. During tho in tervening time previous to the opou ing of tho Colorado Fair every effort will bo lout to the coustructiou of an apparatus which may actually carry a man for tho instruction ami amuse ment of tho pooplo to assemble in tho Western city next summer. Tho mechanism to be constructed is what is known as tho soariug appara tus, tho only kind of flying machino on tho aeroplane order which has ac tually succeeded in transporting a man in free uir. One of these has been built and successfully used by Horr Lillicnthal, a Germau engine manu facturer, who succeeded iu flying several hundred yards by its means. The sumo device has been made and improved by an American engineer living in New York City. A new ap paratus on these lines will bo con structed for tho exhibit mentioned. Tho new soaring apparatus will greatly rosemble a gigautic butterfly, with large curvod but tlxed wings, provided with a Hat tail and upright keel projecting out behind. It will bo about thirty feet across from tip to tip of wings and about seven foot from front to back. It will expose about IGO square foot of surface. This sur fftco will consist of line cloth stretched tightly over a framework of light wood, held in place by line steel wire. There will bo no movement of tho wiugs whatovor. Tho whole surface will be rigid, without hinges or joints or tho movement of ouo part against another. Tho wholo is dosignod to ropreseut the eaglo in tho act of sour ing. From tho centre of the machine to tho front edgo will bo loft an opeu spaco to bo occupied by tho aeronaut, who flies in a standing position. Military aeronautics has bocomo a special study iu all of tho groat Eu ropean armies, including those of Franco, Germany, Euglaud, Russia, Austria, Italy, Spain, Belgium and Holland. Experiments iu nil coun tries so far havo boon made with bal loons only. But upon tho perfection uf a?i apparatm which may be pro polled and steered rapidly from place to place tho fuuetions of tho balloon us u military agent will bo lost. The host authorities 011 flying ma chines agroo that their lirst practical uso will bo as instruments of war, not to take part iu actual battle so much as a means of communication. One might be guided over hostile terri tory, upon which it might drop ex plosives, destroying bridges and other moans of communication. A flying machine would ho very much loss like ly to be hit by a guu aimed from tho earth than would a balloou, on ac count of its much smallor fiize, com bined with its oxtromo speed, whioh some aero-dynauiists now believe will souio day reach as high as 203 miles an hour. Owing to the small area ex posed by the light frame and vital parts, it will be very difficult to hit, and if struck the chauces arc that a ball would go through one of the thin coverings of tho wiugs without shat tering any other part. It is not be lieved that au airship will bo of muoh value for carrying guns heavier than a Maxim repeater, which weighs about sixty or sovouty pounds. A successful airship will probably bo ablo to run several days without renewing fuel or water, providing that a sulliciently light air surface condenser can bo perfected. Proserva'iou ol Peeled Peaches. Four years ago 0. Winkler, of Poach land, Sonoma Couuty, Oak, tilled three Ave gallon cans with peeled peaches, leaving tho pits in them.
