AFRICAN IVORY IS THE BEST.
More Durable- and Capable of" Higher
Artistic Cses Than Any Other.
Afrir-nn ivorv is now conceded to be
tne finest. The tirst quality of this
comes from near the equator, and it
has been remarked witn reg-ara ro mis
fact that the nearer the equator the
smaller is the elephant, but the larg-er
the tusks. The ivory from equato
rial Africa, says Chamber's Journal, is
closer in the grain and has less .ten
dency to become yellow by exposure
than Indian ivory. The finest trans
parent African ivory is collected along'
the west coast between latitudes ten
degrees north and ten south, and this
is believed to deteriorate in quality and
to be more liable to damage with in
crease of latitude in either direction.
The whitest ivorv comes from t-he east
coast. It is considered to be in best
condition when recently cut; it has
thpn n mrllnw. warm, transparent tint.
as if soaked in oil, and very little ap
pearance oi grain or texture. imiiaji
ivory has an opaque, dead white color,
si nil n. tpTiflencv to heoome discolored.
Of the Asian variety Siam is consid
ered to be the finest, being much supe
rior in appearance and density. The
ivory of the mammoth tusks is not
very much esteemed, particularly in
England; it is considered too dry and
brittle for elaborate work, besides
which it is very liable to turn yellow.
As a matter of fact, the larger tusks
very rarely leave Asiatic Itussia, being
1oo rotten for industrial purposes.

LOVE LIGHTENS LABOR.
Advantages Country People Have Over
Their City Brothers.
The countryman has, if he be wise
enough to perceive it, good reason to
count himself a luckier person alto
gether than he whose work is done in
town. For the latter, says Black and
White, unless he be exceeding well off,
there are few pleasures easily obtain
able in the intervals of toil. Food and
sleep are excellent in their way, but
they are necessities, and they are usual
ly taken under such circumstances a'
to have nothing of the character of
luxuries. The countryman is luckier
than this. It may be that his toil is
tiring- and that his wage is a small one,
but he labors in such a way that he al
ways gets the fullest enjoyment out of
his rest, and when he pauses to tal-:'
his midday meal it is under condition-
that would make a perfect holiday for
the city, and to whose charm even the
man accustomed to them cannot grow
callous. He lies at ease among the
sheaves that he has cut, and the sun.
whose ardent rays madf his mil tho
heavier, now adds to his delight. More
over, he eats with the pleasantest of
waiters to see to his comfort; it may b
his wife who brings his dinner, or per
haps it is some buxom girl from the
farm who is not yet his, though she
will some day be. as she knows within
herself, and he is not afraid to believe.
Verily, his toil is hard in itself, but be
must be a singularly discontented per
son if he do not find it light amid these
surrounding-s and under these pleasant
conditions.
A LESSON TO GLOUCESTER.
Smallpox Epidemic Teaches 'People the
Value of Vaccination.
The recent outbreak of smallpox in
the slums of (irbucester was, according;
to recent reports in the London Stand
ard, a very serious affair. Eleven per
sons are known to have been removc:l
to the hospital in two days in one par
ticular court. The neighborhood re
ferred to is in an exceedingly dirty con
dition, and crowded to excess.
A medical man states that not one
single person who has been successf ull
revacciuated has been admitted to any
of the hospitals suffering' from the dis
ease. Every facility is now offered to the
working classes to be vaccinated or re
vaccinated, free of expense, with calf
lumph if desired, either at their owli
homes or at the numerous vaccination
stations which have been temporarily
opened in all parts of the city.
The effect of the epidemic on many
trades was disastrous, business in
some cases being almost at a. standstill.
Drapers, tailors, dealers in furniture,
etc., were greatly affected, while the re
ceipts of tram-cars were little more
than one-half the amount taken at or
dinary times, and this notwithstanding
the fact that on the windows of each
car a notice .was posted stating that th.
conveyance was regularly disinfected.
With refencnee to the cost of the cpi
demic to the city a prominent oflieial in
formed me that, judging from past ex
perience, he estimates that this will be
at least 10,000 or 12,000.
And the Commercial Traveler Got a Hook
In His Ear.
A commercial traveler who stayed
over Sunday at Seneca Falls and went
to the lake to pass away the time,
thought he would catch a few fish, so
he hired ta boat, equipped it with the
necessary tackle, started out and was
soon busy watching his line. After a
time, says the Post Express, something
got hold and commenced to pull. To
make sure it was a fish he leaned over
the side of the boat and peered down
through the water, and when he found
it was a real live fish he became ex
cited and tumbled in head first. In his
efforts to extricate himself from his
unpleasant position he became en
tangled in his line, and the fish separat
ing from the. hook that adjunct to a
fisherman's kit attached itself to his
ear. He was finally rescued but little
the woirse for his experience
QUEER SETTLEMENT.
Hornets and Birds Become Friends and tne
' Former Guard tne Latter Nest. . ,
On the broad, brown salt meadows
that skirt the Housatonic river, just
above its mouth, is a vast colony of
marsh wrens, relates the St. Pau. Dis- j
patch. In the acres of tangled tules
and cat-tails the nests, which are as
large as one's head, are so compactly J
constructed and so thoroughly thatched
as to be entirely weather-tight. . As
a rule the thrifty little chattering
wrens prefer not to occupy a last year's
nest, so there are every season hun
dreds of empty ones. They are not al
lowed to remain vacant long, for there
are too many creatures seeking just
such snug quarters. One specimen of
field or meadow mice take possession
of a great many of them. Big spiders,
too, love to nest in1 the abandoned bas -ket-like
abodes and live for many sea
sons in them. Tbe most desirable ten
ants of all are the big black and white
hornets. By far the greater number of
the old nests are inhabited by these
fiery fellows, and, odd to relate, they
are the best of friends with the land
lords. As if by agreement with the wrens,
they keep a perpetual guard over the
new nests, as well as those when- they
live. Let a dog, an unconscious rail or
snipe-shooter, a bird-egging boy or any
creature whatever approach the nests
without warning, a cohort of winged
warriors will fall on the intruder, ana
flight is the only safe course. The
wrens seem full conscious of the value
of such sentinels, for they take cart
to build their nests always very near
to the old. The birds are themselves
entirely defenseless, and, their' nests
being easily located on account ot size
and the noise made by the wrens, they
have been in some localities entirely
wiped out by egg collectors. The boys
have learned to give this colony a wide
berth.
THE CHEWING GUM FACE.
Certifled-Check Face Seems to Be the
Best Artificial Countenance.
The chewing gum face is the latest
scientific discovery, and it is argued by
the discorer that no one who chews
gum can possibly be beautiful. This
will not have any influence upon the
homely, but to actresses and others
who imagine they have good looks that
should not be wantonly chewed away
it should prove a deterrent. Per
chance the ceaseless chewing habit of
the dromedary, who chews as fastid
iously and industriously upon a pea
nut as upon a squash, is the real cause
of that useful quadruped's haggard,
guant ami infinite homeliness. We
should think that smoking cheap ci
gars, through the incessant hard puff
ing devolved on the smoker, would ab
normally develop his masseter muscles
and give h:m a tobacco face that should
prove instrumental in securing for him
the position of cigar store Indian.
We wiU not allude to the cigarette
face, says Truth, or any other face i
that, like the chewing gum face, is a !
false face, inasmuch as it is not a j
natural face. A happy, well-fed, contented-looking
man, who is the picture
of health, is the man with a certified
check face. From the constant hand
ling of certified checks drawn, in his
favor his face becomes a sort of palpi
tant rose garden.. This is so much bet
ter than the chewing gum face that we
wear it more from pjjeference than,
from force of circumstances.

Idiosyncrasies of tbe Men Who Made
Harmony In tne fast.
.1 am tickled to know that Wagner
was an exact and expensive drcsecr,and
that Beethoven was a sloven, with an
old coat and slippers trodden down at
the Jieels, says a writer in the ' Con
temporary IJeview. It interests me to
hear that Paganini always carried a
shirt in his fiddle case, because he per
spired so profusely over his solos Jhat
he had to change between the parts if
he played twice. I even care to learn
that Mendelssohn was a perfect child
about pastry, which he could never re
sist, and which he always ate (especial
ly cherry, pie) and which always dis
agreed with him; that Schumann in
jured his third finger by tying it back
to his wrist with a string, because he
hoped to make it more tuppfe it end
ed, however, in his almost losing the
use of it; that Billow got up in the night
to play over passages which he thought
he was likely to play inaccurately at
his prodigious recitals.
When Thalberg was at the height of
his fame he 'wouldn't even carry an
umbrella, for fear of it cramping the
muscles of his hand; Malibran loved
r othing so much as romping with
Moschelcs children on the floor;
Paganini was so stingy that he would
stand up under shelter in the rain and
keep a. whole opera house full wait
ing sooner than call a cab. Prof. Ella
told me he found him one day crouch
irjg under the Arcade in Regent street,
and that, he gave this artless explana
tion: "Hackney coaches, he said, 'in
London were, so expensive!" and this
when he had doubled the prices at the
opera house where he played and was
rolling in money. "
PREHISTORIC AMERICA.
Ruins of a Magnificent City in Guatemala
A Palace ISO Feet Long.
At a recent American association
meeting at Buffalo Mr. J. R- Chandler
described a visit to a wonderful ruined
city of Central America.
. The road to the ruins of Tzac Poka
ma, in Guatemala; runs through an im
mense pine forest, and they include the
foundations of what was once a popu
lous city, with temples, palaces and
other structures. These were described
by Mr. Chandler. He said that every
temple stood in a plaza, around which
had been ranged the dwellings of the
priests. Every strategic xOint on the
mountain was once fortified by a castle,
fort or pyramid. The central palace
was 190 feet long, with walls eight fe-et
thick. On the highest point stood a
fortress 240 feet'long, with a pyramid
40 feet high, the whole built on terraces
whence the Tzac Pokama can be seen
in its entirety, as well as the hills, vol
canoes, valleys and rivers for hun
dreds of miles around.
This splendid city could have held
three times as many persons as now
inhabit. Guatemala. Few utensils v. ere
found, and no statues, sculptures or
hieroglyphics. There is also a conical
hill called Mumnz, with a sacrificial
pyramid, through which goes a wind
ing passage, said by tradition to lead
a rich subterr:iT""'m city.
