At Least the Corinthian Was Under ; Contemplation as Long - ... Ago as That, " "Speaking of canals," said the engineer who had Deen talking about Panama, "a very interest ing canal, and one not much heard of, is that connected with the gull of Corinth and the gulf of Aegina in Greece. V : "It's some older than any we have in the western hemisphere, also, for Periander, tyrant of Corinth, proposed to cut through the isthmus as long ago as 600 years before Christ. ; Superstition stopped him, however. "Julius Caesar and Caligula took it up again when Rome had hold of Greece, but it was too much for them. Then came Nero, and he went at it with vigor, bat the work stopped when he died. ."Others kept poundiag away at it for the next several hundred years, but it was not until 1881 that real work of the Nero en ergy waa pat upon it. 'Then Gen. Turr, aide-de-camp to Yictor Em mannel of Italy, organised a com pany snd worked on tiH the mon ey gave out In 1890, the chief ob stacle being some kind 'of flint which dynamite couldn't break. "Abont 110,000,000 was spent np to 1890, and then Mr. Syngros took hold, organised new com pany, with 1965.000 working cap ital, and finished the. job in 1893: It is only about four miles lone, but it is 69 feet wide at the bot tom, about 80 feet wide at water- line, 26 feet m and three inch'ea deep in water, and it is cut nearly all the way through solid rock, rising at some points for 269 feet above the canal. "It is like a canyon, and ships do not take kindly to it, the entrance being bad, a strong wind blowing through it as through a great air shaft, and there is at times a strong reverse current. - "It is an interesting trip through the canal, and it saves 123 miles of very rough water and 20 hours of time; but so far skippers prefer to go through the peninsula rather than through the canal, though with some changes which will be made it is believed the canal will become of general use as soon as a few ships begin to use it and remove the prejudice new existing against it." . :C- A NEGRO AND STEAMBOAT. m Kan's Season- for Believing Colored Han Good Boostabout .' -Superior to Wattes. "The suggestion came out of Bt. Louis the other day that white labor had replaced the negro on the wharf and that after lonj; teryice the black roustabout was ibout to enter upon the-decline of his sway," said an old river man, according to . the New Orleans rimes-Democrat. "All of which, I may add, I accept with a grain of lalt, as the saying goes. Some how I can never think of. the suc cessful and really valuable rousta bout as anything but a black man. "The negro seems to have been tarn to the calling. He is, as a rule, fond of the steamboat, and aatnrally takes to steamboat work.. He has always hovered around the river. Of course, you t will find negroes back in the hills ;n J XX J J 1 1V.U.V.. ' auu acauercu aruuuu iu txie lugucr altitudes, but the vast majority f them yon will find quartered in the lowlands of the country, and on the rivers, where he can hear the flutter of steamboat wheels, there is one other fact to be men tioned in connection with the ne gro's peculiar fitness for steam boating. . .... . "Did you ever hear the steam boat mate talking to the 'roua- ters' say, for instance, when the i boat was a little late in pulling out and during the busy season? Hast not, eh? Well, there is some thing in store for you, something lurid and forceful, and something that will force you to run the gamut of the emotions. The point is that the negro is stimulated. and urged on to quicker work by this kind of talk. Prof amtyis an essential in the mate's calling. The negro needs it. I was just wondering if the white man would ever get used to it. Maybe so, but I have my doubts about it."" p . Queen Mary's Harp.

There are some few happily -dis posed individuals, says the Lon don Lancet, who can dine alone, and not eat too fast, nor too much, nor too little. With the majority it is different. The average man puts his novel or his paper before him and think that be will lengthen out the meal with due deliberation by reading a ittle with, and more between, the ourses. He will just employ his nind enough to help, and too little to interfere with indigestion. In fact, he will provide that gentle mental accomplishment which with, happier, people conversation ipves- to a meal. - This, is your sou- tijuaL excellent idea. In jfeality he" become engrossed inhkt he is "reading till, suddenly, finding Jub. food cold, he demolishes it in a few moutbfuls; or else he find that he is hungry, and paying no attention to the book, which hu ttings aside, he rushes through his food as fast as possible, to plunge into his arm chair and literature afterward. Ia either case the lonely man must digest at a disad vantage. For due and easy nutri tion, food should be slowly taken and the mind should not be in tensely excited during the process. Every one knows that violent bodily exercise is bad yost after a meal,.' andmental exertion is squally so. Wise people do not even argue during or just after dinner, and observation of after- dinner speakers neither endure themselves nor excite in their hearers any severe intellectual ef fort. In fact, the experience of countless generations, from the red Indian of , the woods to the white-shirted diners of a modern party, has perpetuated the lesson that a man should not eat alone, nor think much at this time, but should talk and be talked to while he feeds. Most people do not think much when they talk, and talking is a natural accompaniment of eat ing and drinking. How does it fare with . the many solitary women of to-day? No better we know than with the men, but dif ferently. r Alone or not, a man may generally be trusted at any time to take food enough. BUYING RUBIES IN BURMA. A. Transaction Which Xa Sntered Into with the Greatest Pre jj eanuoa. caution. The peculiar business methods of oriental merchants' are illus trated by the manner of buying rubies in Burma. In the examina tion of rubies artificial light is not used, the merchants holding that full sunlight alone can bring Out the color and brilliancy . of the gems. Sales must therefore take place between nine a. m and three p. m., and the sky must be clear, .says the Jewelers' Weekly. The purchaser, placed near a window, has before him a - large copper plate. The sellers come to him one by one, and each empties upon this plate his little bag of ru bies. .The purchaser proceeds to 'arrange them for valuation in a number of small heaps. The first division is into three grades, ac cording to size; each of these groups is divided into three piles, according; to color, and each of these piles, in turn, is again divid ed into three groups, according te shape.' The bright copper plate has a curious use. The sunlight reflected, from it throughthe stones brings out, with true ru f ties,, a color effect different from . that with red spinels and : tour- malines, which are thus easily -separated. The buyer and seller then go through a very peculiar method of bargaining by signs, or, rather, grips, in perfect silence. - After agreeing upon the fairness of the classification, they join their right hands, covered with a hand kerchief or the flap of a garment. and by grips and pressures mu tually understood among all these dealers, they make, modify and ac cent proposals of purchase and sale. The hands are then nncov ered and the prices are recorded. : Problem in Xillinerr. r "Why," oh, why," remarked the observer of event and thingg, "will a woman smue witn aeugnt when She sees a hat in a milliner's window and frown when she sees i the same t&:& W neighbor's mm i mniiii i.iloj n mni i tin u The Kind You Have Always in use for ovet f O years, S2r ;yz ' -wv A IIYWnn nnA trIwivA vnn In tTifa All Counterfeits, Imitations and Just-as-good" are but Experiments that trifle with and endanger the health of Infants and Children Experience against Experiment What is CASTORIA Oastorla is a harmless substitute for Castor OH, sToC Drops and Soothing Syrups.
