LONGEVITY" AND DRESS SUITS. rbe Latter SUowu To lie a Direct CaiiKe of the Former. New York Times. I solemnly declare," exclaimed Epicurus, the corpulent proprietor of dui of tlie most fashionable restaurants in the vicinity of aiaaisou square 10 a repvnvi, inav vt up 11 i see young fellows enter my establishment and audaciously take their seats at my well appointel dinner tables in their ordinary business clothes, my blood boils within me. I feel it to be an insult which I burn to re sent." Epicurus was moved to these reflections by ' the arrival of two young men in light check suits, who calmly entered the restaurs ut and took their places at a table by the side of three aristocratic "young bloods' in "claw hammers" and white neckties. . "Is a dress suit an alsolutely essential char acteristic of an aristocratic restaurant P. in quired the mild youth. "Most undoubtedly." was the scornful answer. "If I find that the tendency to abandon that attire sensibly increases 1 shall put up a notice prohibiting the entrance of any one in business clothes. A dress-suit is at the very root of polite table society. I know something about it, young man, and have studied the question deeply. I have my customers' interests as much at heart as my own. IU tell you what I mean. One of the most prominent physicians in this city told me as a positive fact that the reason Engl sh statesmen, barristers, and justices live to such old ages it is a remarkable fact that they do is simply because they dress for dinnejr." "What on earth can dress suits have to do with longevity V "Simply this: Just suppose you've b3eu harassed and worried by a hard day's work I don't mean to say that statesmen and barristers invariably are and tnat you've got to dress for dinner. The consequence is, you can't precipitate yonrself on your food and partake of it while in the state of annoyance which render disgestion out of the question. You're oblige t to deliberately fix studs in your sbirt there's nothing re quires more self-possession than that wrestle with a collar, and don your black garments.

"Still, the custom is going out somewhat, is it notF "I grieve to say that owing to the perni cious example of the English members of par liament it is losing ground. Just think! Lord Randolph Churchill and one or two others are the only members who still adhere to the custom. What England will come to I don't know. I don't care either, except so far as America is concerned, and it will af fect ber by the force of example.

There is a common mistake regarding house drains that they are made too large. It is incorrect to suppose that a very large drain is safer than one of moderate size- be cause the smaller the drain the moro con centrated the flow, and the rnorp thorough the flushing when larger amounts of water than usual are passed through it; as on wash ing days. It may be taken as a rule that no private hous, no matter how large, can need for its drainage, a pipo larger than four inches.

THE TROUBLE TO COME Unleas ltlch and Poor Learn to He speet Kaeh Other Store. Joaquin Miller's Letter. In the city of New York, however, there ii sign of serious trouble ahead. But it is such that an army could no more compass thau in Paris. I have made my home both in Belleville, Paris, and the liowery, New York. They are much alike in elements of destruction. I remonstrated with a " communist, a workingman, during the excitement of the siege. "What," said I, "would you burn Paris?" With hand thrown wildly in the air, he replied : "Monsieur, we built Paris; we will barn Paris." The French, only after Paris w s in ashes, saw their error. Gambetta had outgrown his Belleville "and left its fierce spirit of strife, it3 hatred of the rich, its misery, hunger, madness, be hind him. But Belleville remained the same, bided its time, and burned Paris. And yet this Belleville was compara tively but a small place. Bijt in New York the whole populace and packed lower half of the island is given up to poverty, to toil, tenen:ent houses, to misery and crime, a was that one little place in Paris. There are a million of the poor, the miserable, set apart by themselves in the lower part of the island. There are ft thou sand of the rich, the luxurious and happy on the other end. This unfortu nate division will tome day be fatal. "The people, the poor and the rich," said Gambetta, "should dwell together and learn to respect and love each other." He said this after the most terrible lesson that fire and blood ever taught But it is a lesson Wuich is being en tirely lost on Americans. Of course there are many rich, people and many noble, peace-loving people in the lower endofisew York; and there are a few laborers at the upper end. But the mixture is s ight. And any one who studied even so small and peaceful a thing as the freight-handlers istrike last year, can clearly read between the lines much that I have not space to set down. Unless the rich and the poor melt more together and come to know and respect each other more, there must be tremendous trouble in that cty soon, whose rich despise the poor and the poor in return bitterly hate the rich. I undertake to say that a modern prophet might rise up and without much risk to his reputation, proclaim it in the streets that the ambitious billy goat shall some day soon nibble the grasses from the blackened ruins of .Filth avenue. And as indicated before, all the armies of "a strong government," when the day of destruction comes, will be laughed at just as they were in Paris. No, trust the people with your prop erty, your money, your liberty and your life. Treat the people justly, and the people will not betray, you. "We the people;" "this government of the peo ple, by the people, and for the people." "A stronger government." Bah! The ravr of Washington' Slothrr. l"Cu-tis" in Inter Ocean. Gen. Casey ha3 just returned from Westmoreland county, Virginia, where he went to make the necessary arrange ments for the monument to be erected at the birthplace of Washington, and Congressman Wise, of Virginia, now proposes to seenre an appropriation from congress to erect a memorial tablet upon the grave of Washington's mother, wbich is now in a lamentable state of neglect and decay. The grave, which is in n old cemetery a few. miles below Fredericksburg is covered w ith a pedestal which was placed there by a Jew York " gentleman thirty or forty years ago. He intended to complete the monument, but lost all his money before it was finished. There now lies at the foot of the pedestal, hidden by rank weeds, a shaft of un dressed marble, with simple marks where the work was stopped. The grave is surrounded by a wire fence, but that is all the attention that ever was paid to it. I think the state of Virginia ought to have patriotism enough to put this sacred place in order ; but as it has not, congress can well afford to reduce the surplus in the treasury by a few thousands to mark a historical spot and honor a noble wo man's memory. I met an old gentleman from Freder icksburg the other day, and asked him if there were any people residing there whose memories went back far enough to recall the Washingtons. He said there were plenty of remin"seences in the neighborhood, but they had been handed down from past generations, for the oldest inhabitant was not born when the family had gone to their graves. Washington's father, he said, was not given a very high character in the local legendary lore, for he never amouuted to a great deal, and died young, leaving his wife a heavily mort gaged farm and a large family of chil dren. Mary Washington, or "Mother Washington." as they all call her, was a womajjr of uoble characteristics, and her memory was very much revered. After her husband's death she lived in a little house on the outskirts of the town, which is now occupied by the vil lage watchmaker, but is in the last stages of decay. Here she died, and the room in which she breathed her last is still shown to the few visitors who come that way. A Land of Cripples. Croffut's Letter. I have never elsewhere met so many cripples of all sorts as one sees in Mexico; lame and with gnarled arms; blind or of imperfect vision. But the Abbe Clavigero, one of the oarly priests, said of the Aztecs : "There is scarcely a nationon eurth where there are fewer deformed persons ; it would be more difficult to find a single hump back, lame or squint-eyed man among 1,000 Mexicans, than among 100 of any other people." Indeed cripples wore so rare that Montezuma set up a museum of the few in the country as an exhibition, and the number was so small that some parents mutilated their children's comely proportions so that they might be eligible, and thus sup port their parents in luxury. Alas ! the diseases of the Spaniards, spreading from generation to generation, have made cripples no longer a marvel, and some of the beggars that crouch along the cathedrals to-day have almost lost all semblance of the human form. 125 YEARS OLD. Messrs. Francis Newbery & Son, Lon don, England, established for 125 years, write: As a testimonial from one of the oldest drug houses in Great Britain, re specting your household remedy, will no doubt be of interest to you, we are pleased to make the statement that we have sold St. Jacobs Oil with satisfaction to the public, for several years, and that owing to the extraordinary merits of the article, the demand is continually increasing, and that we have heard of many favorable re ports regarding its great virtue as a pain curing remedy. Chariei Heads as a Worker. New York Tribune. Charles Beade was a very methodical worker, and neglected no helps. It was his habit to form scrap-books contain ing whatever strange, new or startling eveats or stories appeared in the daily press, and of these books, which he called his "brains," he had accumu lated a formidable number. Believing as he did that an author U entitled to appropriate matter wherever he finds it, provided that he adapts it, it is not remarkable that he should several times have been charged with plagiarism, nor that in some of these instances his de fense should have been rather adroit than satisfactory. Ho possessed a fertility of invention which male him independent of ex traneous assistance, however, and his original work will bear comparison with the strongest in English fiction, either past or present. He has been charged with inordinate vanity. The truth doubtless is that he was aware of his own ability, and did not hypocritic ally depreciate it. That he posseisad a most sterling character is certain. He was ever ready to defend the oppressed, careless of the odds, and with a fire and energy which nothing could restrain. His hand was always open to a pitiful tale, and the many authentic stories of his benevolence show him to have had a knightly and tender heart. The Plteh-PIue Industry. ' "1L Quad's" Georgia Letter. That curious industry the extract ing of oil and turpentine from pine by distillation is represented in Augusta. Five cords of fat pine are used in the kiln or oven at a single charge. This charge is smothered, the same as if in tended for charcoal. The first result is a qualttjr of turpentine as clear as crys tal. The second is turpentine oil, pure and unadulterated. The third is a liquid resembling tar, but much thinner and having a pleasant odor. Three or four drops of this on a bit of sugar will cure an ordinary sore throat in an hour, and instantly relieve hoarseness or ticki ng in the throat. It is largely used south for both man and; beast, and most people regard it as a sure cure for vert bin g except a broken ne-'k. The fourth result is a mixture largely used by gravel-roofers, and to some extent by painters. It is not only water-proof, but a great preservative. The fifth and last result is a mass of the cleanest and purest charcoal which t an be produced in any known manner. The cost oi operating these works is very slight, while there is a steadily increasing de man J for the products at a fair proiit. A Turtle of Xotr. A correspondent writing from Nor wich, N. Y., says: "In the summer of 1840 A. It. Warner, of Guilford, while walking through a meaiow in Unaville valley, came across a large turtle. The shell of the turtle showed the marks where initials and date had been cut in it, but the initials of one person only and the date on which they had been carved could ba made out E. R. J., 1835. Mr. Warner cut A. R. W., 1840, iu the shell and released the turtle. In 1880 the turtle was discovered in the same locality by some boys. 'Ihe 4E. R. J.. 1835 and 'A. R. W., 18i0,' were still very distinct. In (addition were H. J. H., 1870,' E. B., 1875,' and S. D. A., 1880.' The turtle was again turned loose. A few days ago it was found again in the field where it was seen in 1840 by Mr. Warner. No addi tional carvings were on the shell. 'Ihe turtle is no larger than it was fo:ty years ago, showing that it must have been full grown at that time Baron Nordenskjold is getting ready to go Bees, f e soutn pole. TUBERCULOSIS. Bemarkable Improvement in the Case of a Physician Daughter A physician in the vState of New York, whose daughter was in rapid decline, sends us a report, which we give, showing a prompt arrest of the disease and a rapid return healthward. "Your Home Treatment was duly re ceived, and my daughter immediately commenced its use, stopping all other treatment. The results are marvelous in deed. She says that she feels nearly well, except that she has some cough yet. You will see by reference to my former letter that she had a very bad train of symp toms. Two physicians whom I called to see her pronounced it a case of Tubercu losis, and gave it as their opinion that she could not recover. She had a cough for a year; was very hoarse; had a severe pain in right side; chill for last txco months, with night sweats, emaciation, weakness, and loss of appetite, and ner vousness; could not sleep at night; pulse a hundred and over at times; respiration about twenty-five to thirty-four.

" i i Style at the White flonse. F Washington Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer. While I was in Washington I went through a portion of the executive man sion which I have not seen ' for the past two or three years. It has been re furnished according to the prevailing style by Tiffany and other i imitators of what is gbing on in Europe. The east room is now a kind of silver and gold room, and it has only two portraits in it Gen. Washington, by Stewart, and Mrs. Washington, byAndrfews. In the long corridor, which connects the east room with the staircase and bisects the lower floor, I looked at the portraits of the presidents, and it seemed to me that the best of them was that cf Gar field. The artist has made the light shine on his forehead so as to bring out his intellectual nature strenzly and also to give a kind of tender halo to his eye expressive of that almost feminine sensibility he had. A number of women were gomg through the apartments with tne man servant, and I was struck with the want of refinement and delicacy among these, and it seemed to me that the older the women were the more crotchety and disagreeable were their remarks. There was one old woman who seemed to think that the White House and its treasures were designed to illustrate her private biography. She would look up to the portrait of Hayes and say: "Who is that?" "President Hayes," replied the custo dian. "I never seen i him. Who is this man?" "That jis President Pierce." "Yes, I seen him once." PRESIDENTIAL FAVORITES. Home Interesting: Facts Concerning the 311 on who Stand Closest to the Chief Executive. Visitors who, from curiosity or business, have called at the White House, must have been impressed by the courteous yet systematic manner with which they were received and escorted through the mansion. The gentlemen whose duty it is to receive all persons coming to the White House are Colonel E. S. Denmore, Mr. John T. Rickard and Mr. T. P. Pen del, and they have occupied their present positions through the various administra tions since and even during the war. Mr. Pendel was President Lincoln's body guard; saw him to his carriage the fatal night on which he visited Ford's theater, and he now has in his possession the blood-stained coat which Mr. Lincoln wore on that memorable occasion. There Is not a public man in America to-day who does not know, and who is not known by, these gentlemen, and the reminiscences of public and social b'fe which they can re count would fill a congressional volume. During the weary vet exciting years of the war; through the more peaceful times of Grant's administration; while Hayes held the reins of government, and when Gar field was shot, It was these men who stood ia the executive mansion, welcoming the advent of each new administration, bow ing at its departure, and receiving both martyrs through its portals. During that long, hot and never to be forgotten summer when President Gar field lay between "two worlds," the na tion became aware of the deadly malarial influence which hung about the White House. But all through that period these three men never deserted their posts for a single day, although each one was suffer ing intensely. In conversation with the writer. Colonel Densmore said: , "It is impossible to describe the tortures I have undergone. To be compelled to smile and treat the thousands of visitors who come here daily with courtesy when one is in the greatest agony requires a tremendous effort. All that summer I had terrible headaches, heart-burn and a stilling sensation that sometimes took away my breath. My appetite was uncer tain and I felt severe pains in the small of my back. I was under the doctor's care with strict instructions not to go out of the house, but I remained on duty never theless. You would be surprised to know the amount of quinine I took; on some davs it was as much as sixteen grains." "And was Mr. Rickard badly on, too?" "I should think he was. Why, time and again we have picked him up and laid him on the mantel here in the vestibule, he was so used up." "Yes," exclaimed Mr. Rickard, "I was so weak I could not rise after lying down without help, and could only walk with the aid of two canes, and then in a stoop ing position. Oh, we have been in a pretty bad condition here, all of us." "And yet you are all the embodiment of health," said the writer, as he looked at the three bright and vigorous men before him. "Oh, yes," said Mr. Rickard, "we have not known what sickness was for more than a year." "Have you some secret way of overcom ing malaria and its attendant horrors." "I think we have a most certain way," replied Colonel Densmore, "but it is no se cret. You see, about two years ago my wife began to . grow blind, and I was alarmed at her condition. She finally be came so she could not tell whether a per son were white or black at a distance of ten feet. One of her lady friends advised her to try a certain treatment that had done wonders for her. and to make a long story short, she did so and was completely cured. This induced me to try the same means for my own restoration and as soon as I found it was doing me good I recom mended it to my associates and we have all been cured right here in the stronghold of malaria and kept in perfect health ever since by means ef Warner's Safe Cure. Now I am not a believer in medicines in general, but I do not hesitate to say that I am satisfied that I should have died of Bright's disease of the kidneys before this had it not been for this wonderful remedy. Indeed, I use it as a household medicine and give it to my children whenever they have any ailments." "Yes, exclaimed Mr. Pendel, "I use it in my family all the while and have found it the most efficient remedy we have ever employed. I know of very many public men who are using it to-day and they all speak well of it." "I weigh 160 pounds to-day," said Mr. Rickard, "and when my physician told me over a year ago I could not hope to recover I weighed 122 pounds. Under such Influ ences you cannot wonder that I consider this the best medicine before the Ameri can people." The above statements from these gentle men need no comments. They are volun tary and outspoken expressions from sources which are the highest in the land. Were there the slightest question regard ing their authenticity they would not be made public, but as they furnish such val uable truths for all who are suffering, we unhesitatingly publish them for the good of all." Kvervbody's Xe One-Hided. Boston G obo. A very singular fact has been ob served with regard not so much to the shape of the nose as to the sefting ol it in the face, so to sjjeak. To be strictly correct , from the artist's point of view, the nose should be accurately in Ihe middle of the face, and at right angles with a line from the pupil of one eye to that of the other. As a matter of fact it is rarely or never found thus placed. It is almost invariably a little out of "the square," and the fact of its being so is often that which lends a peculiar expression and piquancy to the fa.e. A medical writer points out that there are anatomical reasons why a Blight deviation from the true central line may be expected, and that the nose which is thus accurately straight be tween the two eyes may be considered an abnormal one, and that the only ab solute correct organ is that which de viates a little to the right .or left. explanation Wanted.
