The cost is eHtitnated at 1 180, 000.000. which does not seem extravagant, but the net profit to be realized from freight and traffic is estimated it f 26.000, 000. A Chinese farmer at Klnkiang was robbed on his wedding; night by a clever burglar who had concealed himself in the nuptial chamber, and removed every thing so completely and con scientiously that the unhappy pair had to sond and borrow some clothes from the neighbors before they could make their appearance the next day. l'wo'mon in J'ioga County.l'enosy i. vonla, who had jointly bought a cow. quarreled about dividing the milk, one claiming that the other owned only the front half" of the animal. Subse quently the owuer of the rear half was lifted by the cow's horns, and he wanted damages of the "front" part ner. In Evausville, Ind., recently, dur inf? the progress of a divorce suit, io whicli a woman was trying to gain possession of bor children, her little girl reooguled her and sprang crying iuto ber arms. The court granted a reoes for the mother to see her child Id an ante-room, but when the recess was over neither could be found. R. . 1 .11 I '"IHh In order that we may distinctly un derstand the cause and nature of the trade-winds, it Is necessary t boar in mind that the earth in the center of its circumference, at an equal dis tance from the polos, In dlvidod by a lino called the equator into two hemi spheres the northern and the south ern. Across the equator, cutting It obliquely, there passes another great circle culled the ecliptic, which do scribes the path the sun traverses. It extends 2:1 degrees north and 23 degrees south of the equator, which is the utmost limit the sun traverses; for, when arrived at either of these boundaries, he again seems to return towards the equator. It must be very evident that the region of the earth included within a circle drawn 28 degrees north and 23 south of the equator which will comprehend thfc g tea test portion of Africa, a consldet able part of Asia and America, and many large, fertile and populous isl ands in the East and West Indies will receive constantly the solar rays in a direction so little oblique as to causa the most intolerable heat It is, therefore, called the torrid zone; and the limits at which the sun stops, and appears to retrace his course, have received the name of tropics, or circles of return. This being pre mised, and it being also remembered that the earth revolves daily, "her silent course advancing," round the sun from west to east, the cause of the trade-winds will be readily under stood. The rays of the sun. In its apparent motion from east to west, rarify the air beneath, and the air so rarified rises into the higher regions of the at mosphere. While this takes place, the colder air from the adjoining tem perate zones rushes in to supply its place. But it is from the polar regions north and south that these colder cur rents originally come; and did the earth remain at rest, such would be their obvious direction. Instead of this, however, north of the equator the direction of the trade-winds is from the northeast; south of the equator, from the southeast; the cause of which is thus explained: The velocity with which the earth revolves is inconsiderable at the poles, but increases as we advance, and is at its maximum at the equator; the winds. In sweeping from the poles, do not ac quire a corresponding Telocity with the motion of the earth as they ad vance towards the equator; therefore, moving more slowly than the earth, they are left behind; so that, to the observer who Imagines himself at rest, the air appears to move in a direction contrary to the rotation of the earth, riz., from east to west. The external limits of the trade winds are thirty degrees no:th and thirty degrees south of the equator; but earh limit diminishes as the sun advances to the opposite tropic. The larger the expanse of ocean over which they sweep, the more steadily do they blow; accordingly, they are more steady in the Pacific than in the Atlan tic, and in the South than in the North Atlantic Ocean. Within the region of the constant trade-winds rain seldom occurs, but it fall abundantly in the adjoining latitudes. Tho reus-on is, that rain, is produced by the sudden mixture of air of different tempera tures charged with moisture; but the constant circulation and intermixture of the air from the upper strata of the atmosphere maintains so equal ft temperature in these latitutes as not to occasion the condensation of vapor which is necessary for the production of rain. Within the limits of the trade-winds, contrary to what might have been supposed from tha latitude, the atmo sphere is peculiarly cool and refresh ing. The climate of the Eandwich Islands is far more cool than might be supposed, judging from their latitude. To the trade-winds must this alone be attributed; and thus has Nature ren dered a region, which would otherwise have been parched, arid and uninhab itable, exuberant inteautyand mug cificence. N. Y. Ledger. A peculiar fact about American literary women is that many of them are domestio in their tastes and have great ability as housekeepers. Lucy Stone is a noted home-maker. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady-Stanton's domestio propensities ate well known. Mrs. Annie Jenuess Miller, the lecturer and advocate of dress reform, has a hus band who worships her. Mrs. Liver more, the lecturer, is another good housekeeper, and in addition to her public and private duties takes care of an invalid daughter. Hot OiU Inn Itea.lay l iiilniiat III. Kdi eatiua In Chleairo. Old Tim Betwley. of Coffee County. Tenn., came io Chicago th othor day, for the purpose, as ho declared, o fin ishing his education. "You see," ht said to a hotel clerk, in answer to e facetious remark made by that re splendent gorloman, "I fij; througt the war, had the break-bone fever ir Texas in '85, was flung down an' mauled Into a loblolly by a feller that was a-runnin1 for the Legislature, passed through a season uv hog chol era, come putty nigh, sneezln' my head off with a new-fangled bad cold that the doctor called hay fever went through all that, an' tfien 'lowed that my education wa about finished, an' 1 reckon I woulder stopped right rfiaref our county jrjge hadn'ter told me that I'd hatter see this yere town before 1 could make my books balance with any sort uv credit ter myse'f; so wife she stuffed a few uv my duds inter a car petbag, baked me up a few pones uv co'n bread, put a tract 'The Ugly Grin of Iniquity In my side-pocket, kissed me an' turned me over ter the esprcial kere uv the Lord." "You'll need especial care of super natural powers if you stay in this city, the clerk replied. 'Yas, I reckon so, an' wife she 'lowed so, too." "You must look out lor sharpers." "Yas, that's what I'mgoin' to do the Tery fust thing." When Beasley had gone out the clerk, speaking to an acquaintance, said: "We can have some fun with that old fellow." "How?" "You noticed his big silver watch, didn't yon? Well, suppose you follow him aroiid to-night, and if he hap pens to get out of the crowd, go up to him and ask the time. Then, when he takes out his watch snatch it away from him and bring it here. "That would be a good idea, but I'd rather you'd do it." "The-'e is no danger," said the olerk. "Why, before he could recover from bis surprise we would have his watch 'n the drawer here. You stand watch for me after awhile and I will work the old fellow. I would like to have a photograph of the expression that will come over his face when he realizes the los of his watch. Such a picture could be sold for a large amount of money. The hour was growing late. Old Keasley stood on a street corner. There were no saloons in the neighborhood, and consequently there were no potice nien. A man wearing a slouch hat ap proached Bcasley and said: "Mister, will you please tell me what time it is?" "Oh, yas do that Time Is a mighty cheap articklo with me." Beasley took out his watch with one hand, but with tho other hand he took out a pistol. "Hold on, now, don't git skeered. Don't try ter run away, fur If ye do I'll shoot you sho. Now, let me see. l'odnor, it is now fifteen min utes ter twelvo. Loes tho time suit you?" "Yes, sir." "Bout ez good timez you ever seed, I reckon." "Yes, sir." "Like to own this watch, wouldn't you?" "Sir?" Beasley repeated the question. "Yes, sir," said the mun. "Well, you sbail have it. You shall trade yourn fur it." The man stepped back. "Hold on, now (Beasley held up the pistol). Don't try ter git away, fur if you do I'll hurt you, sho. Take oil your watch. (The man obeyed.) Now, here, take mine." When Beasley went into the office of the hotel he found a clerk with a solemn face. "Wall. I'm gittln' along putty well," said tho man from Ten nessee. "Cleverest folks up here lever seed in my life. I thought the folks down in Nashville was good, but these people lay over any I over seed. W'y, I tell yo whntoneof 'em done. Found out somehow that I had a ole bull-eye silver watch, an' dinged ef he didn't give me a gold one fur it. Best folks I ever seed." The clerk did not reply. Ills coun tenance was sad, and his nervousness bespoke great anxiety. "Here," said old Beasley, taking out a gold watch and putting it on the counter. "Gimme my sun regulator. Oh, Iknowed you."Arkansaw Trav eler. How She Pl&yed John. Mrs. Stebbins I don't see why Chi cago shouldn't have a beauty show for men its well as Vienna.

"Certainly, my darling. There It is. Is that enough?" Chicago Herald. THE HAPPY OPTIMIST. ', A Man to Whom Every Clonil I Sphere in Pn rent Hilver. The optimist Is the jewel of society. He is not born; he is made. The op timist is the pure metal that glistens at the bottom of the world's crucible after it has been freed from all dele terious matter by the fire of adversity. He is, as it were, a sheaf of experi ence clarified and tinctured till nothing but the pure, fragrant attar remains. It is not impossible that be may have been, in his younger days, so ill-contained as to rant himself hoarse as a mosquito. The father of American op timists, whose soul, In his latter yeurs. was as calm and translucent as one of our mountain-girt lakes, was irascible In his youth. j When one has been beneath the trip hammer of real affliction, has felt the hand of calamity clutching tt his heart, the little every-day an noyances seem to him like the tickling of a straw wielded by a liliputian, and the cries of pain and disappointment that winnow the air, as the tinkling babble of toy lives. Who shall say that the optimist has not caught a glimpss of the infinite? Is it not very like, for is he not ever tip-toeing on the skirt of the limitless? The faith of the optimist is as bound less as space itself, even though you grant it the much-haggled-over fourth. dimension, and by this faith he be comes almost a prophet, for theknowU edge of what ought to be, and the faith that it will be brought to pass. A Delphic oracle, or a seer of Ercildoun is not more intuitive than your perfect optimist He can catch the outlines of the ideal flower even while Nature vig orously wields the pruning knife of ad versity, cutting back the young plant and fitting it for a better growth. To the optimist every cloud not only has a silver lining, but is sphered in silver, with every drop of rain a pearl. The mission of the optimist is to find good in every thing, and nobly he fulfills it He is an oasis hid in th great social desert a fountain of peaca and content, undisturbed by the typhoon of restlessness and dissatis faction that swerls ceaselessly about him. His presence is a3 soothing as the How hum of an aeollan siring fin gered by the zephyr, and as healthful as the wind which Egypt's natives call tho "doctor," is to the burring cheek and parched lip of the fever etrlcken African tradesman. Where gets the optimist this peace which pussoth all understanding? It comes from his conviction that around the waist of nature, cestus-like, is bound tho siiviug and inexorable law. tie Thought It'na. mean.
