TTliera IMr. Curtis Learned to Write.
Whatever my stylo of writing may be,
it ia the result of natural selection and
not of special design. The first author
who interested me deeply alter "Robin
so:i Crusoe" and the usual children's
books cf fifty or sixty years ago was
Washington Irving. Then came Walter
Scott and Charles Lamb, Keats, Shelley
and Wordsworth, then Bacon and Emer
son, Burke and Carlylo, Thackeray and
Hawthorne. But rhetoric or composi
tion I havo never studied. My long con
noctioa with the press has been of the
utmost servica to me as a writer. For
many years I have beea the chief editor
ial writer upon tlarper'a Weekly,
paper which takes part ia political dis
cussion, and tho necessity of making my
self intelligible to the rapid reader in
comparatively short space has been prob
ably tho best training I could have had.
Fortunately I have no taste for what
seems to me the frequent ertravagance
of newspaper writing, and. therefore 1
have easily avoided it. Every young
writer shoald remember that bigness is
tot greatness, nor fury force. George
William Curtis.
The Proper Function of a Kcirspaper.
In ita ambition to bo everything and
to havo everything the newspaper has
traveled far beyond its legitimate bounds.
The complaint at the magazines indi
cates the outgrowth on one side of those
bounds; the more excited protests of an
invaded privacy point to another over
flow, and other burstings of limits are
heard from in other directions. The
original functions of a daily newspaper
appear to have been forgotten. Keen
competition among themselves has final
ly brought newspaper people to a condi
tion of feverish anxiety in which every
thing within reach must be theirs.
Everything printable is printed. Noth
ing ia so small that it cannot be stooped
to; nothing too remote and abstruse for
reaching after. Noah Brooks in Forum.

A German friend of mine (he is some
what of a humorist) was bantering ms
about the notorious aversion of Ameri
cans to walking, and he remarked that
he bad heard it said that the average
American did not walk more than mile
adav. Of course I resented this gross
libel, and I asserted that the average
American thought nothing or starting
out for a walk of five miles. I cited
with a trood deal of pride the habitual
practice of Julian Hawthorne of taking
mere stroll or twenty or mirty nuioa
whenever he has a few moments to de
vote to exercise. I ppoke. too, of your
townsman, Mr. Slasoa Thompson, editor
of The America, who is in the habit of
walking ten miles a day and running fif
teen or twenty more.
Mv friend therennon became personal,
and ventured to iatimato that I could
not walk Cve miles. Of course I accept
ed thochallongo implied, end, peacefully
d.nVleringiinbocila that I was, I actually
walked for four coasecuti vc Hours neioro
I learned (upon romonstratiug with r.iy
humorous friend) that a Gonnaa mile
was equal to four and a half Lnglub
miles, and that iu order to accomplish
the feat I had undertaken I should have
to cover twenty-two and a half miles.
Germany would be a ven table para
dise, methinks, for Julian Hawthorae
and Slason Thompson. They would be
elected to the reichstag at the first con
gressional election. Eugene Field in

A correspondent writes to Tho Victo
rian Electrical Telegraphic Journal as
follows: "I became uware of r. wrinkle
lately that i am confident will be n nov
elty to many of your readers, and also
of use. One of our telegraph inspectors
gave it to me. Be came to my station
and found that the battery was not up
to his idea of what a battery shonld be.
He took it down and renewed it When
it was put up again he asked me to favor
him with a little sugar., I asked him
what he wanted with sugar. He quietly
langbed and said, 'Get some, and I will
show yon what it is for.'
"I got it, and be began to wash his
bands in tbe usual way with soup and
water, but after rnbbing the soap he
added the sugar, and immediately a
good lather came. He washed his hands
twice, and told me to do likewise, i
did and to my pleasure my hands came
out of the wash clean and soft He
told me always to do so when working
with magnesia or copper solutions, and
the nasty dry feeling that usually is ex
perienced when working with a battery
it quite done away with."
When to Water Plants.
The other day a gentleman saw pro
fessional florist watering his plants in
the hot sun, and in a surprised way in
quired if that wouldn't injure the plants.
"Why, no," was tbe answer. "Why not
now?" "I supposed tbey had to be wa
tered only at night," said the amateur.
'Do you drink only at night?" asked the
florist "Are you only thirsty after the
sun goes down? That idea helps our
business, for nnder it the flowers of the
ignorant would-be growers die, and we
get the opportunity of selling more of
our stock, i water my flowers when
they are thirsty, just as a stock grower
waters his stock." Exchange.

So she uttered a few remarks, and one or

cially a gigantic failure. The charge to
exhibitors and their assistants of (12s.

unpopular. There are something like 25,

by tbe transaction. True it is that the
promise is thrown out that two-thirds of
the money will be returned at the close of
the exhibition if the passes are handed Iu
again, but this assurance is generally taken

Sheep and CsttU.
Can mutton be more cheaply produced
than beef? As bearing upon this subject
Stewart calls attention to the fact that
the sheep is a source of double income-
meat aud wool. He refers, too, to the
experiments of Sir J, B. Lawee in refer'
eueu to the percentage of food utilised or
stored up by different animals, and those
experiments presented the sheep in a
very favorable light Of the dry food
consumed be found that sheep stored up
Increased weight 13 per cent; while cat
tle only laid np in Increased weight 9 per
cent that is, eight and one-half pounds
of dry food increased the live weight of
cattle.
So that, relying upon these expert
ments, sheep must be considered as ex
cellent utilizers of food, aa producing as
many pounds of mutton, besides the
wool, from a given quantity of food, as
can be produced of beef; and aa the
beat mutton brings aa high price as the
beef, it would appear on this basis the
sheep would give the fleece as extra
protit over cattle. If this is not too fa
vorable a view, the sheep on suitable
lands must be considered among the
most profitable of farm stock. It is true
tbe dairy cow brings her profitable flow
of milk to offset that of wool; but the
dairy cow does not lay on flesh while
producing milk, as does the sheep while
producing wool, A fleece of five pounds
of wool grown in a year requires only
a daily growth of one-fifth of an ounce,
which can take but small portion of
food to produce. The mineral matter
tn!:en from the soil by the fleece is ouly
1.6 ounces per year, and if six half mut
ton sheep repreuout a cow, the whole
mineral constituents taken by the six
fleeces would ouly be 0.8 ounces, and
abiiut 1.0 pounds of nitrogen, while tbe
ordinary ew. yielding 4,000 pounds of
milk, would take twenty-six pounds of
fiiuerol mutter or ash and twenty-five
of nitrogen, or forty-three times aa much
mineral matter and thirteen times as
much nitrogen as the fleeces of the sheep.

An Idol Destroyed.
"Thoro has beon a great deal written
about tho wonderful memories of hotel
clerks, but let me tell you it's all bosh,"
said a well known member of the craft
"Of course a clerk has to have a good
memory, but so has any man in busi
ness. And it is quite true tnat training
one's memory in a certain line makes it
more agile in that direction than tbe
memory cf a man of different vocation
13 HMy to bo. But what I refer to is
tho talk about tbe memory of tbe hotel
clerk being phenomenal, and, to prove
it, citing instances how seeing a stranger
once the clerk recognizes and calls him
by name ten years later, though not hav
ing seen him in the interval. It's non
sense. And though tne guest in ques
tion may answer 'tis a fact, he is but de
ceived by tho regulation trick. Yon
tal:o sharp notice some time and yon
will see a man approach the counter.
"If that man has ever stopped at the
hotel before he will recognize the clerk.
And the clerk, seeing the spark of recog
nition ia the eye of the guest whose
name he doesn't remember from Adam,
holds out his hand and grabs that of the
guest, shakes it heartily as with the
other hand he shoves the register to
ward him and gives him a pen, at the
same time firing at him a lot of ques
tions such as 'Well, whore did you
spring from this time? Where bave yon
been oil this time? Yon are looking
well; family ditto? How's business?
Want room with bath? and so on until
tho guest has registered. Then the clerk
rings in the guest s name before tbe own
er has time to see if it is Bpelled right
It's a simple trick: but its performance
not only causes the one upon whom it is
played to feci mora at home, but to mar
vel ever afterward at the wonderful
memory of the hotel clerk." Chicago

The Saltan's Table Etiquette.
The sultan never uses a plate. He takes
all his food direct from the little kettles,
and never uses a table and rarely a knife
or fork a spoon, his bread, a pancake
or fingers are found far handier. It re
quires just twice as many slaves as there
are courses to serve a dinner to him.
Tho whole household is at liberty to
take meals where it suits bim or her best,
and thus every one is served with a small
tray, with a spoon, a great chunk of
bread, and tho higher ones only get the
pancakes.
Nearly one ton of rice per day ia re
quired for the inevitable pillafle, 000
pounds of sugar, as much coffee, to say
nothing of the other groceries, fruit,
vegetables and meat Rice and mutton
and kread form tho greater part of tbe
food for the majority of Turks, together
with fish, sweetmeats, confectionery,
nuts and dried and fresh irnits.
That there is enormous waste and ex
travagance in the kitchens is obvious,
and it is said that cnongb is thrown away
daily tomaintuin 100 families; bnt such
waste hi perhaps not confined to a Turk
ish royal household, and might also be
fonnd in kitchens nearer home.
The surplus is gathered np by the beg
gars, in whom Constantinople abounds,
and what still remains is eaten by the
