LOG CABIN SUCCESS. What ails the young men? Robert Garret's father left him fortune of twenty millions.' He was from childhood reared in luxury; he received' a splendid education with an especial training into a thorough knowledge of railroad .management and was expected to succeed his father as a railroad King. Within three years after the re sponsibilities which his father's deUh threw UDon him were assumed, he i reported a broken down man, wi'.h mind and health permanently shat tered. George Law is another young man left with millions of money, who is reported among the "wrecks." His father, bred a stone mansion, was of gigantic size and strength, with com mensurate brain power, so he became a great contractor, then a railroad king and left half a dozen millions for his son to dissipate. The young man is a success as a disaipator. The founders of both of these great estates were born in the most humble walks of life, crew Btronsr, mentally and physically, by simple living and honest labor and developed into finan cial ciants. Their sons were reared in the lap of luxury and developed into intellectual pigmies. The great men of cur country hare not, as a rule, come from the elegant mansions of the cities, but from the Log Cabins of the rural districts. Simple wavs of living, freedom from dissipation and enervating pleasures, simple remedies for idisase, effective and which leave no poison in the sys tem, develop brawny, br.viny men.whe compel the world to recognize their strength and power.

GHLS IN DURANCE. A Bratilitn Costora Which TV on Id Find Xo I vur ta This Country. The typical American girl has often been ceiisnrvd for too great freedom of manner. People disposed to criticise have declared that the social freedom enjoyed by her has detracted from her modesty of mien. If she is forward. however, she may point to her South American sisters as examples of an op posite mode of culture. A traveler in Brazil was one day entertained by a niiddie-aged couple, vno led tne con versation to marriage. The lady asked if the guest were pos sessed of a wife. W hen he replied in the negative, she enlarged upon the de lights of married life, saying, at the same time, that she had five unmar ried daughters. This was a broad hint, which the visitor ecu d scarcely ignore altogether. tie tneretore expressed a polite wish to make the acquaintance of the damsels. The wife looked in quiringly at her husband, and he pres ently rose, unlocked a door, and di: appeared within a dark chamber. He returned almost immediately, however. saying: 'lhe girls are not accus tomed to seeing strangers, and are afraid." The hostess thereupon disappeared within the room, whence sounds of whispers and gigglingpresently issued. When she returned she led a modest- lookihg girt of eighteen or nineteen years, and was followed by three others, all of whom seemed to be over whelmed with intense shyness and a hysterical desire to laugh. After a formal introduction they were hustled away; ana the Key was once more turned npon them. "Why do yon lock them in?' asked the guest Tt is the custom of our country,' returned his host. "I have never thought of bringing up my daughters in any ether way. "But do they never go out?" "No, never," was the reply. "They learned to ride when they were child ren, but since then they have been shut np in the house, where they will remain until husbands have been ob tained for them." uouotiess tne daughters 01 a more northern latitude might object so forc ibly to such incarceration that it could never become a custom.

He replied: "When any thing disturbs Iheir tempers I say to them 'Sing'; and if I hear them speaking against any person I call them tQ sing to me; and they sing away all causes of discontent and every disposition to scandal.

They are multiplied without trouble, and are of rapid growth. Orchids, on the other hand, are of exceedingly slow growth; they are obtained only at the exponso of money and trouble, fre quently attended by danger and even loss of life, and are by no means easy to grow. Many remarkable stories might be told of the adventures of seekers after orchidacece. They re quire the most arduous travel, the most careful seeking", and the greatest care in transport. Orchids are indig enous to most hot climates, but one thing- which they need quite as much, if not, indeed, more . than heat, is water. Given a tropical climate, ipok a swampy valley, well protected from the night winds and sheltered from the direct rays of the sun. Then you will be most likely to find your orchid. It must not, however, be Imagined that all orchids grow together. Their habit ants are as different as their colors, and while some species are found only in the East, others ar tied to the West until they are hunted out, gathered and transported with the greatest care by the assiduous collector, to ultimate ly meet in some glass-house within the bounds of civilization. All classes of orchidacece, have in their wild state a great horror of man. As settlements advance, so the orchids retire, until their hunting-grounds get smaller and smaller and ultimately disappear alto gether. Orchids flourish in well-nigh every part of the tropical world. The coun tries which are especially affected by the orchidacexr are Brazil, Guatemala, Colombia, Mexico, Borneo. Java, Assam and Rangoon. Colombia prob ably yields more spoil to the orchid hunter than all the rest put together. but the most prolific districts have been pretty well explored now, and at tention is being turned to the interior of the islands in the Straits settlements and Burmah. To equip an orchid hunting expedition costs no trifle. A skilled botanist to take the command is a sine qua non. He must be accom panied by at least one practical assist ant, and supplied with means for pro tecting and packing the plants when found. ' The traveling expenses to the far land to be explored are a fraction of the cost of the expedition. Arrived in Mexico or Assam, as the case may be, a small regiment of men and boys, horses and don- eys has to be hired to convey the party and to carry back the orchids. The expedition is frequently gone six months or more, and sometimes re turns empty handed. Even when a good find is reached and a burden of several thousand roots is safely con veyed to the coast, the trouble is but half over. Many cases are on record where the botanist, after having seen his precious treasures carefully stowed awav on board the steamer, muses contentedly over his success on the way, until, arrived in London, he opens his naies to nnd every plant dead. A good load brought safely to market more than makes np for such mishaps, however; and when it is borne in mind that any thing like a novelty or even a fresh strain in an orchid brings a price of from $25 to $100, it will be seen that the risk is worth running.

Fami lies living at a distance from the meet ing-houses came prepared to spend the intermission between the morning and afternoon services in the "Sabbath-day houses.'' These houses, according to a descrip tion published in Sanfords "History of Connecticut," were small log struct ures, twenty-five feet long, ten broad and one story high. A chimney in the middle divided the whole space into two rooms, for the use of the two fam ilies who united in building the house. The furniture consisted of a few chairs, a table, plates, dishes, and some uten sils for wanning cooked food. Un a shelf were a Bible and two or three re ligious books. In winter, on Sunday morning, be fore starting for church, the mother of the family put up food for dinner, not forgetting a jugof cider. The family rode -in a large two-horse sleigh. stopped at the Sabbath-house, kindled a fire, and then went into the cold meeting-house, where the minister preached in an overcoat, with a muffler about his jieck, and mittens on his hands. The women carried heated stones in their muffs, and the men drew bags over their feet. No chronicler informs us how the boys and girls managed to keep warm during the long service. At the conclusion 01 the morning service, the family hurried back to the warm room of the Sabbath house, where they took their dinner and drank their cider from a pewter mug Thinks were then returned, and the review of the sermon began. If the sermon failed to furnish sufficient mat ter to occupy the hour, a chapter in the Bible was read, or a few pages from a i-eiigious book. Singing and prayer sent them to the afternoon service in a devotional frame of mind, at the conclusion of which they returned to the Sabbath-day house, extinguished the fire, locked the door, and started for home.

" Oil CityJilizzar&.. WONDERFUL BLIND MAN. Its Works the Typo-Writer and Keep an Intricate Set of Kooks. A most remarkable blind man ha been brought to public notice by the proposed founding of an institution for the Instruction of the sightless people in this City. His name is Alden F. Hayes, and be lives at Sewickley, one of the fashionable suburbs of Pittsburgh. His father was the bril liant George Alexander Hayes, who was killed at the Battle of the Wilder ness, and for who; e widow a pension bill of the sanio size as Mrs. General John A. Log-mi's is now pending in Congress. Their blind son Alden is now about thirty-five yeara of age, and he carries on an extensive business as coal merchant. He attends to all the details himself without a particle of clerical assistance. Ho is totally blind, yet he writes all his own orders by the type-writer for coal from the mine operators, takes the car number when the coal arrives, weighs the coal by the wagon-load lor customers, gives the drivers properly filled on; tickets or makes out the receipts, receives money, counts it and miik3 change. keeps a set of books,- walks to and from his home without company, and in fact goes anywhere in Sewickley by himself and without a cane. He is an accomplished musician. For eighteen years past he has been or ganist in the Leetsdale Presbyterian Church and he still takes every Fri day afternoon away from his business to rehearse the music for this church on Sabbath. He plays the piano with even more versatility than the organ, and has handled the clarionet and other instruments for the Sewickley brass band frequently. Mr. Haves" musical methods ar entirely different from those of the celebrated "Blind Tom." The latter learns by air. Mr. Hayes does not, although he has a fine ear for music. He was a natural-born musician. His technique was pro nounced by critics faultless. For ten years he taught music, and only gave up the profession when commercial business pressed him too hard. He plays selections from all the masters Mozart, Beethoven and Mendels sohn. He could, it is said, after ord nary rehearsal, sit down at the grand organ of any of the city churches and without hesitation perform as well as the regular organist. In learning or rehearsing selections, the music, time and expression must be read to him by an assistant. He listens to a line at a time, then plays It off. It seldom need be read to him a second time. The blind coal dealer does all his own correspondence, usinff tho tvne- writer. He is so expert with this ma chine that few professional tvne- writer operatives can pass him in peed. His fingering Lt different from that of most writers.

Preparations "NerrnRrtrr to Change From the Old to the New Srstem. The present is the time to begin preparations for making butter in winter. The first requsite is that the cows shall come in during the months of September and October, and calcu lations must be made accordingly. The advantages of changing from the old system of summer dairying to win ter operations are so great that many of the most intelligent and progres sive dairy farmers have adopted the latter method. They thus escape the daily and exacting labor of the dairy during the busy summer months, when the general operations of the farm de mand the most attention. The cows go dry during the sultry days of mid summer, when the pastures are the most parched and scanty. There is no butter to be kept over through the hot season, when keeping it in good order is the most difficult and prices are the lowest. These and other ad vantages are greatly in favor of win ter dairying, which has been made practicable by the modern improve ments in deep setting, preserving fod der in silos, centrifugal separating, etc. With this, as with other imjior tant changes, it is the first step which cost.s. The first step, as indicated above, is to hold the cows back so they will come in during September of next year. In the vicinity of a butter fac tory it is desirable that the majority of the patrons shall agree to make the change, that the factory may be kept running through " the winter. Those who already have cows which will come in next fall, or can buy them, must see that good shelter is provided, with plenty of ensilage, means for taking the chill from, the drinking water, etc. It is idle to object to this system as "unnatural" for the cows. The dairy cow, as we have her to-day, is an artificial product any how, which has been brought to her present state of development by a long course of breeding and care. It is only a step forward in the same direction to change her season of greatest milk flow from summer to winter.

There is a wide gulf between youth and ripe old age, hence the proverb, You can't put an old head on young shoulders." This proverb was written by an old man; youth had nothing to do with it. Youth don't believe the old man knows anything, and the old man expects continually that the young man will be along saying, "I didn't know it was loaded." But young America doesn't want to be' told that it is loaded; he prefers to find it out himself. He gets there and pays the piper pener allv. Boston Fibre and Fabria. .- . She Knew Him Well.

Time EXCITING SPORT. flesertptlon or a Herniation Bear Hunt In I.Hplund. A peasant generally goes out In oarch of a bear's trail, and, having found It. moves in a ring some miles in circumference, to make sure of having him within it. He then gradually con flicts his circles, till he comes to the rctrait itself of the animal. Weeks are sometimes expended in this search; the peasantry are then summoned to skall by the Ijuidshorodlng. or Governor of the province, and put under the direc tion of the jogmoestaro, or ranger of the district, who marshals them, and commands their movements. The peasants are generally formed into cir cles, and como armed with whatever weapons they can procure. Though opposed singly to a whole host, the bear often spreads havoc among his assailants. Every ball that enters his huge carcass but ttdds fire to his fury, and woe to the individual whom his wrath has singled out. It ceases to be a mere pastime, and nothing but the greatest self-possession can save him from a miserable death. While at Hemosand I saw a repre sentation of an event that took place at a skall in the neighborhood, in 1831, and which shows that bear-hunting must lie quite equal to tiger-hunting in excitement and peril. The bear on this occasion was very large; nothing like an American bear, with which an In dian can grapple, but an enormous beast able to carry off a pony under his arm. His temper, probably never very good, had boon rufiled by ten shots lodged in diifjrent parts of his body; all present intrenched themselves and awaited some desperate effort on his part, should not a lucly shot through the head sKedily give him his quietus. At this moment a man. bolder than his companions, advancing before them. the bear rushed uion him, tore the gun from his hands, and began to wound him with his tremendous claws. The wretched man was unable to con tend with his muscular antagonist; al ready his wounds were letting out his life, when a young Nqrrlander, unable to look quietly on, rushed to his assist ance. Besides the danger which he himself inrur-.-ed. and which, of course. he had no ieeling of, there was some difficulty in shooting the bear without striking the man. As he advanced, the bear rose on his hind legs to meet his new opponent: his victim dropped be fore him; the Norrlander seized the fa vorable opportunity, raised his gun with both arms high above his head, to bring it in a horizontal position on a level with tho bear's, and, trusting to feeling more than sight, discharged his piece. An immediate death-wound could alone save either from their enemv. The success which the brave man de served attended him, and the ball passed through the brain of the bear, which fell dead on the wounded man. A". I Ledger. THE PAPER TRADE. Recent DhrorrriM "Which Bid Revolutionize It. Fair to "We now make about everv thing. from a shirt to a car wheel out of paper, but we are also making paper "Out ol nearly everv thing," said a Yankee manufacturer. 1 he most recent invention in out trade and it is one which bids fair to revolutionize it altogether is the pro cess of making paper out of cotton. It was recently discovered by a gentleman fvom Georgia, who has thus opened up another great industry to the South, for the hulls of the cotton seed, hitherto considered utterly worthless a mere waste, in fact are now found to be the most valuable for the making of paper pulp. The discoverer, after much study, came to the conclusion that the hulls could he made into paper pulp. An analysis of the hull showed that it is composed of nine layers, the two upper ones beins black nnd coarse, while the remaining seven are of very fine fibre, and after being subjected to a certain chemical process can be blanched fleecv white. About five hundred pounds of these hulls were sent to paper mill for experiment, and tho re sult was the product of the finest textile pulp that the chemist had ever seen while the paper woven from the pulp makes a much better and smoother article than ordinary 'news print,' as well as a good quality of writing pa per." 'Can paper be made cheaper from this pulp than by the old process?" "The time and cost of reducing the hulls to pulp is only 60 per cent, of what the present process requires, thus the price of paper will be reduced about one-half, while the quality will be much better. Perhaps I can illustrate the exact difference in this wav: To re duce poplar wood to pulp it requires 1? deg. of baume liquid, with 120 pounds of steam pressure, and the time con sumed is sixteen hours but with the cot tonseed hulls the lime is only eight hours, with one-half the liquid and steam pressure. "In addition, the cotton stalks can be used as well for the manufacture of pulp and by the pi-ooess stated above Can be made to produce a good class of paper." N. Y. Telegram.

How Persona Greet Each Other Parts of the World. fn All The most common form of Saluta tion among the Anglo-Saxons Is shak ing hands. r -f; Men usually greet women by raising the hat, but no two men were ever found who observed the courtesy in the same manner. There is no authorized manner for a ludy tj return a man's salute. Novelty b what the fair Bex seeks, and each one has her own little way. Feasants in Spain gree strangers they meet by generously offering him one-half the bread he carries. It is never accepted without great astonish ment to the donnor. Among the French, and especially with the Belgians, men think nothing of embracing each other in public A father and son, or other near relations, often kiss in public. The Japanese Bhow respect on meet ing by bending; the knee, though In the street they only make a feint of so do ing. This is the general salute, but there are many, others which are re quired from inferiors on encountering those of higher positions. In India the Buddhists salute by low ering the palm of the right hand and bringing it up toward the face, at the same time saying: "Ram, ram chair." The Mohammedans do the same, but simply say: "Salaam." This is only done in either case by members of the tame faith. The salutation is always made, too, with the right hand, to use the left btdng considered an insult. The Chinese have a regular code of salutations, eight in number, which define the proper amount of respect to be paid to different individuals. The one which is most familiar to San Franciscans is that when at the new ,ear the Chinaman clasps his hands together, and, gently bowing, wishes his friend the compliments of the sea eon. Two enrjomv greetings which these people Lave among themselves are those of asking each other: "Have you eaten rice?" and "Is your stomach In good order?" A stranger coming among the Moors for the first time would, perhaps, be astonished and a littls frightened by Sf eing one of them riding at full gal lop toward him, as if he were intend ing to execute a cavalry charge. His fears might, perhaps, be increased when this horseman, when almost close to hbt apparent victim, suddenly reined up and discharged his pistol over bis head. Recovering from his astonish ment, however, he would find that this is the Moorish way of welcoming' stranger. la Germany, however, the regula tions are somewhat more stringent. A soldier, on meeting the Emperor, has to stand stilL face about, and remain with hand raised for from ten to twenty paces before His Majesty approaches to the same distance after he has passed. In Belgium an officer has to do the same thing for the King, and subalterns for Generals, though ten paces only are required for the latter case. Sol diers carrying any thing so that their hands are occupied, salute with their eyes that is, they turn their headi in the direction of the person corning and goinsr. Chicago Aetca. When you talk about woman's con stancy, don't quote figures, because figures prove that two wives elope to one husband, and that three widows re marry to one widower. Seven-tenths of the broken marriage engagements are broken by the female side. It is man cruel, tyrannical man who loves to stick, and sticks to see that her grave is kept green. Detroit Free Press.

The form er possesses for some dispositions a certain fascination amounting almost to pleasure; and even the latter, as long as there is any thing at all to do with, has a sort, of compensation in the feeling that- the best possible has been done with th means at hand. -We talk of human life as a ourney, but bow variously Is that journey performed! There are those who come forth girt and shod and mivutled, to walk on velvet la whs and smooth terraces, where every sale is arrested and every-beam is tempered. There are others who walk on the Alpine paths of life, against driving misery and through stormy sorrows over sharp afflictions walk with bare fcet,and naked breast, jaded, mangled and chilled. ffcrt. findnty Smith.
