It Cause Much Loss of I'ortnble Proper ty, Especially t.iihrellaa. The other morning a gentleman sal in an elevated car reading his news paper as lie went down to business. A pretty brown-eved stenographer sat next to biin. Tin; car was as crowded as usual. The young- lady had a hand some umbrella which supported its own dignity against the seat. For a little while then the gentleman with the paper blindly reached over and placed the umbrella between his knees. Thf brown-eyed stenographer regarded thii movement with astonishment, not tt say dismay. Several others were very much amused, says the New York Herald. The impulse of the brown eyed to tall upon the newspaper reader at once aud wrest her property from hie felonious grasp gave way to the pre vailing sense of the ludicrous. She noted that he was reading an editorial on the speakership. It was absent mindedness. lint she had lost her last umbrella from the absent mindeilness of the man who had taken it from the hall rack. There is altogether toe much method in this absent minded business, slit? thought. It is especially overworked with regard to umbrellas. It always operates in favor of good umbrellas, too, and here was a new silk. When this man had finished the article on the speakership he threw his left leg over his right knee and care fully imprisoned her umbrella. At the same time he discovered her attention. She regarded him lixedly with her brown eyes and said: "I beg pardon, sir; you have my um brella." 1 he man started as if struck with a club. And it was rather a broad hint, Jlc looked, be saw, he blushed, he stammered, he handed it over to its fair owner, lie. ivssso overcome with the sense of his ridiculous position that he got out at the next station. The pretty brown-eyed stenographer smiled all the way to Cortland street, but she never again relaxed hold on her um brella. SECOND-HAND FALSE TEETH. They Are As Ciiioil As New and Already Itrokoii In. On a sidewalk stand in Vesey street, just below Church, a shrewd little Irish man keeps a queer stock of second band and damaged articles, says a writer in the New York Telegram. It is about the most heterogeneous col lection imaginable. The greatest thing on the stand when I passeil was a job lot of second-hand artificial teeth. "(ireat Scott!" exclaimed an old wom an who happened to glance at the heap, "I wonder if he thinks any person would ever buy these teeth after being worn by other people?" 1 was also anxious to lind out why the teeth were lying there and asked the owner of the stand. "Those teeth are for sale, my dear sir," answered Hit; man; "would you like to loolt at a set?" When informed that I did not want to purchase, but was curious to know if any person ever bought second-hand artificial teeth, the proprietor smiled. "Yes; at times I sell a great many of these teeth. Where I mostly get them is at pawnbrokers' sales. I buy them for ten, twenty or thirty cents and sell them sometimes for three dollars. I have had old men and old women -poor people, of course walk up to my stand, pick out a set, examine them, try them and immediately purchase, saying that they were fitted better than a dentist could suit them. "An old man purchased an upper set from me last winter and he was so well pleased with thcin Hurt he brought his wife here last week to get a set. I hail none at the time and he promised to call this week. A person might as well save a few dollars in buying teeth as in any other way. Take them home, wash them and they are just as good as new; in fact, better, for they luivo been 'broken in.' " lie Ileitis the Keys.

Mysterious Ruins Found In Places Inhab ited at This Day by Tattooed Sav ages A Oreat Field for Lovers of Archaeology. Modern science, which has brought to light buried Troy, revealed tho place of ancient liabylon, untombed tho mummy of the Pharaoh of Moses, and constructed somewhat of a history for the Aztecs and the mound-builders, stands baflled before the mysterious ruins of the Pa cific. Sea islands, writes a correspondent jf the Chicago News. Kusaie, otherwise known as Strong Is land, of the Caroline archipelago, with a circumference of fifty miles, is covered with massive ruins of a remote date. They bear the outlines of fortifications, and are built of stones ten feet long. duly squared on six sides, of a geologi cal formation not met with on the is land. Ascension Island, known also as Panapo, Is larger than Kusaie, possesses similar ruins, but much larger. In one place there remains a wall 300 feet long and 30 fuet high, forming a court. Little Easter Island, on the eastern outskirts of Polynesia, has no running water, no trees, nothing to attract in habitants. Yet this island is poopled by Polynesians of tho fair type, such as are found far away in, tho Society isl ands, and is covered with remains of a pre-historic civilization of which every record but that of stone has perished. At the southwest end of tho island there are to bo found the ruins of nearly a hundred stono houses, built in regu lar linos and facing tho sea. Tho walls of these houses aro fivo feet thick and over five feet high, built of layers of flat stones and lined msule with flat slabs. Internally the houses measure about forty feet long by thirteen feet wide, and they are roofed over with slabs overlapping like tiles. Tho in tiile walls are painted in three colors red, black and white with figures of hirds and mystic beasts and faces, and geometrical figures. In one of these houses was found a curious stono statue, 3ight feet high, and weighing about four tons, which is now In the British Museum. The sea-clills near this ancient settle ment are carved into grotesque shapes not unliko tho paintings on the walls, ami the coast is marked with hundreds of these strange sculptures. Again, on each headland of the island there is an enormous stone platform, built of hewn blocks of great size lilted together without cement. They are built on sloping ground, presenting on the seaward side a wall-face twenty or thirty feet high aud two or three hun dred feel long, and on the landward side a wall of about three feet in height ris ing from a leveled terrace. I'poit these platforms are stone pedes tals which have supported images, and on some broken figures remain. On one platform fifteen images were found, in sizo ranging from threo to tlurtv-nvc feet in height. They are of human shape, representing the upper part of the body only, with arms and hands close to tho sides. Tho heads aro cut flat to allow of crowns being placed on them, which crowns seem to have been made, not of tlin same material as the statues, but of red tufa. This has boon traced to an extinct crater within a few miles of the houses, and on tho brink ol this crater a largo number of crowns were found, finished and ready for re moval before some strange fate depeo pled the island of those ancient wor shipers. The images themselves aro made of gray lava, which is only found at quite another crater at the other end of tho island. At this crater called Otouli there are several finished and partly finished images, just as they were left by tho workmen. Tho head of one of these measures twenty feet fron. the nape of the neck to tht crown, the faces of the images have well-defined features, with thin lips, broad noses, expanded nostrils, and a general disdainful expression, it is believed, from the appearance of the eye-sockets, that obsidian eyeballs were intended to he inserted. The ears an very carefully carved, and aro promi nent. There are also, in different parts of the island, wooden tablets covered with curious carvings and strange hiero glyphics, which no one can explain. At Oparo, or Hapalti, Captain Vine Hall found a temple, or castle, in five stages, surrounded by walls which in close stone houses, and also square plat forms of stono on the sides of one of the hills, similar to those on Kaster island. This isle is 2,1)00 miles from l'anape, but the inhabitants of the lat ter say their ancestorscame from Oparo. ho were these ancient people? The ruins present an antiquity equal to that of the prehistoric civilizations of Amer ica, lhe present inhabitants are sim ply tattooed savages. The ancient race possessed intelligence far beyond any thing now found in the Pacific; had Ideas of architecture, sculpture, paint ing and engineering and an elaborati religion.

There is a member in the House who has for many years been fond of fluid to invigorate, writes the Philadelphia Telegraph's Washington correspondent. JA Theotner aay ne resotved to quit 1 don't know for how long. On the very day of this resolution, but before it had had time to cool or grow feeble, he met a friend with whom he had often spent a merry evening. The first proposition was to go and get a drink. Tho mem berwho withal is an original fellow- said ho did not drink, but he would go along. They went to a fashionable res taurant; the friend ordered wino ant" the member took w ater. Ilo managed to mako as merry as his companion. More wine was ordered and more water, and. as the friend warmed under the in fluence of tho active liquor, the mem ber followed in all the merriment of his mood. When the wine-drinker pounded the table with his fists in maudlin en ergy and called for more wino, cursed the waiter and asked where his straw- were, then ordered deviled crabs and lobster salad, pickled pigs' feot and diamond-back torrapin, the member did likewise. Ilo grew as hilarious as bis friend, sat sidewiso in his chair, hammered the table, cursed the waiter, and ordered as great con glomeration of food as ever a jolly in ehriate fancied his palate demanded Ills tongue wagged as thick as that of his friend; ho sat as limp in his chair h as great an air of recklessness and abandon. So tho evening went on, the friend drinking wine and the mei.itier drinking water, but each showing the same evidences of e.iiation. When they left the n.-.'.l".n-aiit the friend staggered, and did the member. The friend's hat was mushed on tho back of his head The member's hat was pulled down over ono eye. The friend nut the wrong end of his cigar in his mouth; tho member did likewise, and then they saw each other homo or, rather, the friend was seen homo safely, after which the member straightened up and became as sober as a Scotch deacon.

FOR DRUG-CUYEftS. Money Can lie Save. I by Having -Ve.IU'ille by IU i:.if;li-i)i Num.-. All the largo drug firms print an .rihiite catalogues and ptuc-Lsts of their drugs, nays the Xew York Sun. Most of these catalogues contain almost all the standard prescriptions. The formulas for the most frequent dis eases are printed in these pamphlets, with the quantities of tho doses and the prices at which tho pills, powders, or liquids aro sold to tho trade. Every doctor has several of these price-lists, and every drug store has a pile of them. A man who has any of the ordinary ail ments will find his prescription repeated in one of these prico lists. The differ ence is that tho prico-list usually gives the ordinary names for tho drugs used, while the prescription is written out ir a way which only a doctor, or a drug clerk, or a man who has picked up the knack of it can understand. The difference between tho prices in the price-lists and tho prices at which the goods are sold is from 400 to 2.000 per cent. If a man gets medicines often and can lind a friendly disposed doctor he can save a great deal on the price of his proscriptions. The thing to do is to have the doctor write out tho prescrip tion in English, or to give him :-, couy of ono of these pamphlets with the pill. powder, or whatever it may !.-.', narked.

A great trades-union congress, com posed of delegates from all tho labor jrganiztitions in Great llritain, met at Liverpool on the 1st of September. It was composed of tive hundred delegates, including ten women, and represented most of the large trades ot tho Kingdom. Tie princ'.jV. act of the congress was to pvas a ruo in lion in favor cf reduc ing u.e tlaicof laboring to eight hours a tiny and of making eight hours a day's labor by act of Parliament. This was not passed, however, without a good leal of strenuous opposition on tho part ot some of the older delegates. The meeting of this congress and tho ireat strikes which an; frequently tak ing place in almost every civilized Miliary and region render the subject jf what laws have been passed by tho several nations regulating labor es pecially interesting at this time, says the Youth's Companion. Thus far no Kuropeiin nation has passed a law limiting the time of tho Sabor of adu'.t male working-men. Such measures as have been passed relate for the most part to the protection and lim itation of the labor of women and chil Jren, and tlie greater part of these measures have become lav within the past llftccn years. For Instance, by a statute passed by the lirltish Parliament in ISTs. women, and children between fourteen and eighteen years of age, who are engaged in the textile factories are allowed to work only ten hours a day. Children under fourteen years can work only six hours a day. In other industries the re spective periods of labor are increased 3ver the llgures stated by half an hour. Moreover, no child under ten years of age is permitted to work In an 'English factory at all, and all night work is for- tidden to women, young girls and chil dren. B In France the limit of age is a littia narrower, for in that country no child less than twelve years old is allowed to work in any factory, or other hard man ual employment, excepting that thej may do so in textile, glass and paper factories. The French law, moreover, differs from that of most countrios in that it limits tho hours of labor according to the degree of education of the laborer. Children between twelve and fourteen years who have had a good elementary education are allowed to work twelve hours a day; those who have not, only six. This is to enable the less educated to attend school a part of every day. The French also forbid work on Sundays and nights to all boys under sixteen years, and all girls under twenty-one. In viewing the steps taken by the young German Emperor to improve the condition of his laboring subjects, the present state of the German labor laws becomes interesting. Already legisla tion has dono much, at least in tho di rection of protecting working-women and children. German children under twelve years of age are forbidden to take work in factories and mines, and thoso between twelve and fourteen are legally restrict ed to six hours a day. Those between fourteen and sixteen years old may work ten hours a day in most of the in dustries, and at spinning eleven hours. Children aro not allowed to work be tween half-past eight o'clock at night and half-past live in the morning, nor on Sundays, except in cases of urgent ne cessity, to bo determined by tho liundes- rath, or upper house of Parliament. It is noteworthy, . however, that the German labor laws have as yet done little to protect working-women of ma ture ago. Tho principal law on this sub ject provides that the liundesrath shall have power to prohibit female labor in certain industries, or to restrict it by regulations, and the same body may, if it sees fit, prohibit night work to any special class. Even despotic Kussia has issued de crees which regulate tho hours of work of women and children according to the exigencies of particular industries. Children under twelve years, with a few specified exceptions, aro not allowed to work in Russian factories; those between twelve and fifteen years are restricted to eight hours daily, and may not work more than four hours continuously. Children under seventeen years aud women are not allowed to work in Rus sia in spinning or textile industries at night, and tho Russian law requires em ployers to pay attention to tho education of their working people. Similar regulations and restrictions to thoso which have already been do- scribed exist in lielgium, Spain, Aus tria, Hungary, Holland, Italy, Norway and Sweden, and Denmark. It will be seen that there is little or no legisla tion which restricts or imposes condi tions upon tho labor of full-grown men, but in many countries there aro vigor ous agitations to extend the limitations of law to working-men also.

Strange Delusions Entertained by Highly Nervous I'eople. A writer in a scientific journal gives the following, respecting tricks of ex cited imaginations: "An eminent New York physician, who was fond of ex perimenting, told a friend that he had compounded some wonderful pills, a single one of which would cause cer tain described symptoms. His friend volunteered to take one. The symptoms followed exactly as foretold; but the pill was afterward noticed in the tangles of a very full beard, not having been swallowed at all. The doctor's faith in the potency of his pills was such as to make him think that their mere proximity to the mouth might prove to be efficacious. But we by standers attributed tlie unquestioned symptoms to the influence of an excited imagination over the physical condi tion. A report has gone the rounds to the effect that a certain lady residing in Bridgeport, Conn., in mortal agony called her physician because she had, as she supposed, swallowed her false teeth. She could feel them far down in her throat, and was actually choking to death. Eminent doctors consulted and agreed to resort to tracheotomy, to which they were about to proceed when one of them hanrjoned tn siren on some object under the edge of the I r oeu, wnieii, on examination, proved to be the missinar molars. As soon as they were exhibited to the patient her con vulsions ceased aud she recovered her normal condition. Sifting the facts from tlie sensational accompaniments, there remains the delusion as to the teeth, the calling for medical aid and the finding of the teeth before the doc tor arrived on the scene. But, even thus modified, the case was quite re markable. It suggests, instances of somewhat the same nature." N. Y.
