How the World Is Fed.
"Even the oldest and best informed
man in the trade," said an experienced
ealr-sman in the grocery business, "can
not begin to tell you any thing about
tho wonderful extent ol the trade in
food. Figures don't seem to express
the thing so that any body can re
alize how enormous, tho business is.
5'ow every body knows that corn makes
only a email part of what any body
eats. I mean by that, nobody eats
corn enough to make it a principal ar
ticle of diet. Yet there is one estab--TT3-ai,;:tV
ia Maryland a corn factory,
they call it where there aro thousands
of cans o corn a week put up and
eold. Now, consider that this is only
on", establishment out of hundreds in
this country, and thousands in the
world, where food is put up in cans.
Then think that corn is only one small
item of food even among the canned
oods. And then remember that
canned goods are merely a. fraction of
tho food supply, and you will be ready
to acknowledge that tho food indus
tries are too great to bo readily
grasped by tho imagination. More
. than three-fifths of all the workers of
the world aro engaged wholly in rais

A voung Australian near Bochara,

f itting-room couch after supper. Soon
he arose, walked out into the darkness,
w-ent through four gates, which he
carefully closed, to the woodshed, and
then hunjr up his coat and took down
1; Is shoep shears and sharpened them.
Then he caught a sheep and had just
finished shearing it when some of the
liout-ehoid came with a lantern. Then
it turned out that he had been asleep
all tho time, and the light of the lan

fcheared as well as though it had been

"tYhesi a man is dissipated his friends al-

A 'it and Sknll Fight.
BUI Arp thu dieuMi old time In Georgia
and the old f aahiotiMl tratninR day ient
An old fnnhtoiwKt mustfr ai equal to a
modern "iiardl Gra Th governor wot
the commaiido-in-cUWf, hut as no could not
be personally presont the nulltin were re
viewed by proxy. Every county had an aide-de-camp
with the rank of colonel. ltd held
his rank and title as long aa the governor
held hia ofltce, and he mi expected to holler
for him and talk for him and boom him, and,
if neefliory, ha must fight f'P him on suit
able occasion. If the governor failed of rev
election, these colonel had to retire too, and
a new set were appointed, but the old et
never lout their title, and ao the tate in
course of time rot pretty full of colonels.
On muster day the colouel wore a cockade
hat and a red plume and epaulets and a
long brass sword and big brass apnra, and
horse pistols In the holsters of his arnldle, and
he and his personal tft rode up nnd down
the lines reviewing; the militia, who were
drawn up in a double crooked straight line
In a great bis field that was full of gnlliet
and broom sage. Borne wore coats ami some
didn't; some wore sluteisand some didn't; but
none wore teaiil8, for in those days none
wai-e Itoards but gamblers. Some were
armed with shotguns and some with rifles or
muskets, but most of them carried sticks and
cornstalks and umbrwllaa, and they stood up
or squatted down at pleasure, and about half
the time were hollpriug for water.
THE VOIjOXKI. AKU dlH STAFF.
The colonel and hie statt rodo up and down
the lines on line horses that danced and
pranced like there were tacks under the sad
die. The roll of each company was called
and every man answered to his name whether
he was there or not. 1 hen the colonel took
ceutral position and faced the Ions audience
and wave,! lus glittering sword and e
claimed: "Attention, battalion! Shoulder
arms right march!" Then the kettle
drum rattled and the fife squeaked and some
guns went off half cocked, and the militia
gave three cheer for the coUmel and were
disbanded until the next muster. Old man
Brooks was the chief musician in my day.
and would not hare exchanged this oRlce
with the king of England, lie alwavs played
"Brooks' March for the militia to locomote
by. They never marched or kept step by the
music, but they got along somehow by walk'
big and trotting and pacing and fox trotting
by turns.
Old father Brooks played his part well In
the drama or farce, or whatever it was. He
ttintmitted his ofllce. lie loved music. He
said his fife was his life and his fiddle
was his riddle. On his last bed he sent for
my father -to come and see him. Old and
wrinkled and cadaverous, he motioned to be
propped up in his bed, and then, with an in
verged chair behind his pillow, he pointed to
bis fiddle that lay npon the shelf near by,
and it was banded to him. Hugging it to Iks
old bosom be smiled amid his tears and whis- j
pered: "I wish that I could play you one
more tuneu" That night the old man die,!, j
with his left hand closed hard and rigid
around the neck of his violin.
After the muster was over then eanie the
horse racing on quarter nags and horse swap
pins, and of course some pugilistic exercises
in front of the groceries.
FISTS, SKULLS AXD FINGERS. i
Jim Bowles was the center of a crowd
from his beat, and stripped to tho waist he
pranced around and popped his fist in the
iwlm ot his hand, and jumped up and
cracked his heels together three times before
they struck the ground, aud gave a w ild In
pin whoop and exclaimed: "I'm the best man
in Finkneyrille district" About that time
tiij Jim Robinson jumped up in the center
of another crowd and yelled: "I'm the best
man iu Ben Smith's deestrict," and Nick Raw
lins screamed like a panther from another
crowd, and gritted his teeth and shook his
hr.fr and yelled: "Gentlemen, my Betsy Jane
says I'm the best man in Hock bridge deos
triot, and I reckon she ought for to know."
It was just like gamecocks crowing in the
barnyard, and, like the cocks two of them
soon got together and went to fighting, and
everybody stood around and shouted, "Hands
off, gentlemen; etaud back, gentlemen.
Hands olT; let 'em fight fair and square."
A nd they fought hard and fought long, and
bea on of them got to be the bottom dog
ia the fight and hollered "enough," the show
was over, unless the victor dared to crow
aaia, and had to tackle another rooster. I
have known Xick Rawlins to whip three
brsg men in one evening, and Kick was no
bad man either. Everybody liked Nick, ne
had Ct and font and fought until be had lost
a finger and a snip out of his nose and a
piece of his left ear, but he was never mad.
Isick told me not along ago that he never did
love to fight, but when he courted Betsy
Jane she 'lowed that when she married a
man he had to be a man all over, inside and
out, and so he got to fighting on her account.
But these old times are goiro gone never
to return, tven the preachers who used to
take off their coats in the pulpit have con
formed to more polite customs. Their sing
song sermons are beam no more nor the
nasal attachments that were something be
tween a shuffle and a snort. o:d Father
Dannelly and his wooden leg are dead and so

Don't Learn to Carve.
Never learn to carve, young man. There is
no fun in it. A knowledge of the art saddles
you with a responsibility which, while it may
procure you invitations to dinner, sits heav
ily on the soul and brings wrinkles on the
forehead. If you do not perform the work
artistically you aro criticised. If a tough
fowl gets away from you and takes refuge in
a lady's lap you are laughed at and made an
enemy of the fair one w hose dress you soil or
spoil. You offend Jones if you send the
choicest cut to Smith, and vice versa. You
must send the best away and reserve only the
least to be desired for yourself.
The waiters make you the subject of their
remarks, and by putting their heads together
and jerking their thumbs over their shoulder
In your direction embarrass you dreadfully;
you know by tho fiendish leer on their faces
that they have set you down as a blacksmith.
If the room is warm you are thrown into a
violent perspiration: your collar wilts, neck
tie gets awry, your appetite leaves you, and
when your labors are finished you begin your
dinner with the air of one who has been in a
pugilistic mill and come out second best.

How a Cahmaai Was Footeat.
The life of a backman is not always a bed
of rosea, although be does ride around all
day while others have to walk. A few
nights ago a veteran "cabby" related this
sad story ot man's duplicity. He was hailed
I
iv a well aresse.1 gentleman, who inquired
his price by the hour, and as the amount wa
sntisfactiwy the "fare"1 jumped Into the car
riage and was thriven to one of the up town
theatre, enjoining the driver to wait until
his return. At the expiration ot the per
formance the young man appeared, accom
ivinied by a friend, aud together thy were
I riven to a restaurant, where they took sup
ler. Ihe supper consumed probably an
hour, and theu tlte faithful driver was told
to take the pair to the residence of one of
them, where the guest alighted, and, slam
mng the door with a bang, cold the driver
to go to a certain address and take the other
man home. He did so, driving as slowly as
possible, and finally arrived before the house
losignated.
As it was late and the night was fair, the
cabman, being more or leas of a philosopher,
t untight as he wa engaged by the hour he
would not awaken the gentleman inside, who
appeared to have gone to sleep, but would
!iht his pijie and smoke for half an hour or
ko, w itu the consciousness that be was mak
ing money all the time and not disturbing
the s'.umbers of hia tired friend. Half au
hour passed and still no movement was felt
by the driver on the box. Finally be began
to be a little anxious, and openuig the car
r.ge found to his dismay that It was empty.
The pretended sleep-cr had quietly stolen
away while the mind of the driver was fixed
on other subjects, lie never sleeps now, aud

Contagion Among Ship Pi
"Suppose, doctor, we take the case of a
steamer carrying from 1,000 to 1,500 steerage
passengers ; could disease break out among
them aud remain undiscovered until the ship
reached qnarantiner
"Certainly, and that ia where the danger
comes m. It is a well known fact that pas
sengers who become affected with a suspi
cious disease will take every means to keep
the knowledge of it from the officers. This
is done through fear of being sent to the hos
pital on arrival, and the majority of conta
gious diseases on board ship are only discov
ered when the tMLvengcrs come before the
boarding officer. And here, too," they will
pass unless the evidence of the disease is so
marked as to call attention to them, for if
but one minute's examination were given to
each individual it wonld take just twenty
five hours to pass 1,500, and hundreds of
times ships receive free pratique after only a
couple of hours' delay. Thus it is easy to see
how mild cases of varioloid are liable to slip
by quarantine; but what is infinitely worse,
the whole 1,500 who have been within the
area of infection scatter throughout the land,
every oue of them a possible source of in
fection of the disease." Brooklyn Eagle.
A Couple of Dog Storlea.
Talking of dogs, I should tell you that
London is celebrated for curious dogs. Here
are a couple of stories I can vouch for. In
St. Martin's lane there sits every day an old
blind man who laiits nets. Between his feet
sits a bright little Scotch terrier. If you toss
him a penny he catches it deftly in his mouth
and puts his nose in his owner's hand. The
blind man utters his thanks and drops the
money iu a bag be wears arouud his neck.
In tho evening the dog leads his master
home, and through some of the most crowded
thoroughfares, too.
Neison is tho celebrated dog of Seven
Dials. Ho is always pointed out to visitors.
He got his name front having lost a foot at
some disturbance at Trafalgar square. He
always buys his own food. When any one
gives Nelson a penny aud he is hungry be
goes to a butcher's or a baker's shop, as hia
appetite dictates, and placing the coin on the
counter receives a piece of meat or a roll.
If he has received more pennies than he
needs for the day he buries the surplus and
sits on bis treasure all night. I knew yon
would laugh at that, for I did so until I saw
him do it. Marshall P. Wilder in New Yon

Sometimes the mule la called upon for

lie does not generally receive credit. . bo
lines wew tightening nlxuit Charleston when
Admiral Dahlgrcn's fleet began oratlons iu
tho harbor, and rendered it practicable for
Uio troops on shoro to advance with some
hom of U'lng able to hold points previously
nntetmhln. During tho night a detaebmaut
of the Tenth cora ilinloilged a picket txwt n
the eastern end of Morris Inland, ami ben
(lavlight came had thrown up quite a formid
able Inclining fura Held work. Hut the place
was within twy range of Fort Kumter and
lbiUry Wagner, ami every Confederate gun
that could lie brought to boar liegan to drop
shell Into the littluesrthwork. It was thought
that an atumpt was about to be made to
carry the t lace by awutult, anil, while there
re men enough to hold it, they were a little
short of ammunition. The only practicable
road was a mile and a half of hard, smooth
sand beach, commanded from end to end by
the Confederate batteries.
Hut there was a combination in the Federal
camp that was equal to the emergency;
namely, a fleet mule aud a plucky driver.
Tho mule ia mentioned first, only because be
baa long since kicked his last kick, but the
driver, if he st ill survives, will acknowledge
that without the mule hecould not have done
want he did. It limy be) assumed that the
mute had a good feed of oots before be was
called Uon to run the gauntlet, and jxiwibly
the driver, too, mny theu have felt justified
In fortifying the inner man. lie that aa tt
may, just before noon a few boxes of ammu
nition were thrown Into the lightest available
wagon, and, after looking the hameaa oer
carefully, the driver took bis seat in the
shelter of the sand bills. The mule stood
Hb his extensive ears raking aft and
wicked gleam in hia eye, as if the oats were
beginning to rise into his brain.
"Oood by, Iwysl O'uis mule!" and the
equipage started down through the dry sand
to the bard level of the beach. Mulo shook
his head nnd executed a deml-volt when be
f.'lt the damp sand under hia feet, but driver
soothed him wit h udenring words. It had not
not yet dawned iiixiu the Confederates that the
expedition was intended for the relief of tlie
garrison. Hut presently the gleam of Intel
ligence was indicated with m rush in the
shae ot a shell from the southeast angle
ot Humter. It struck the water fairly
in line, ricocheted, and buret over in
the marsh; but it was the signal for action.
I'p went the whip, and tlie mule gathered
bis nilghfy hind logs under hi in. For a mo
ment it was uncertain whether he was going
to kick or run, but few remarks from the
driver convinced him that there was de-
j mand for forward movement, so bo "lit out
for all he was worth," At least thirty guns
commanded that stretch of beach, and they
pounded away as fast as they could be fired.
Now and then a shell would burst rather too
near tba mole's ears for comfort, ami he
would sheer violently and try to mako for
home. But the gallant driver plied the lash.
and held lilra to lus work.
At length a ten inch shell tore up the
beach and exploded so near that tho mule
was entirely demoralised; but not so his
driver. Leaping down from his seat he
caught the mule by the head, backed him
rapidly round once or twice, and was ofT
again on the keen jump before the gunners
could get bis range as a fixod object. On he
went, ami at but dashed into the redoubt;
but there was no shelter in it for the mum.
His ears waved conspicuously above) the low
lying para let.
The ammunition boxes were tumbled out
unceremoniously, and the mule's nose polntnf,
loraomei i iui me iiguteiied load and toe
prospects of unlimited fodder, be boat the pre
vious record. Hut tho Confederate artillerist
were on their metal now. They hail failed to
stop the supplies, but their hearts burned for
revenge. Their shots now came more from
the rear, and bets were freely offered with no
takers, on what the result would be should
the mule have a fair chance to kick a ten
inch shell, as it were, "on the fly." The
crescendo scream of shell chasing him op the
beacb, lent wings to his beela, and be fairly
flew toward the clieltering sand bills. There
were only a few rods more to be covered.
wben aomo careful gunner made a close cal
culation as to the lengthening range, and
pulled his lanyard almost in the nick of time.
The huge mass of iron struck tho beach, as It
seemed to the anxious spectators, exactly be
hind the wagon, and the next instant noth
ing was to be seen there but a cloud of white
smoke and brown sand. In an instant, how
ever, this floated away, and t's mulo was
seen vigorously reducing to kindling wood
what was left of the quartermaster's wagon.
And the driver, where is net Well, bo
apparently knocked over by the explosion,
but ho got on bis feet in a moment, and.

THE OLD LIFEBOAT.
Tho old lifeboat.
With its work of mercy done!
Left to crumble away on the shore.
To the heaping sand and the scoffing roar
Of the waves that nod on the glassy floor;
Left to parch In the summer sun.
To blacken and rot, for its course Is run
- The old lifeboat, -
That used to float
Over the silver waves remote.
The old lifeboat!
How It stood in service days!
ad in white with a star on its prow
(But the star has set on its old side now).
And the coils of rope at the shapely bow;
Sturdy oars that were steady in place.
At cry of alarm ever ready to raise,
The old lifeboat
We oft would note
Far on the sea like a sunny mote.
The old lifeboat l
By the lighthouse shadow long,
8alt winds whispering now through Its cracks
Murmur over and over remembered facta
Of the purple calm and the tempest racks,
Sinking ships, and the booming strsng.
The summon to save, and the anxfcus throng
Kouna ur oia iireooas,
Pushed oil to float
Over the lashing waves remoUt
The old lifeboat!
By the shore and shifting tide!
There the dreamer will often delay.
And the lovers lean at the close of day.
And the seamen pause, and the children play.
is It lor naught that it should abide F
What matter U then though it be denied
TWe old lifeboat
Again to float
Over the silver waves remote!
