It Will Far Surpass the Paris Kxbl bition in Artistic Interest The Most Beautiful Spectacle ot Our Generatiou. ' TJ"E confidently assert, on the L ' pvidpnnn nf nil thp most experienced fudsres rf art whom it hna been nosaible for us to consult, that the Chicago Ex hibition will far surpass even the Paris one of 1889 when considered in its en- . tirety . and for its artistic interest. A much more beautiful, scholarly and mon umental type of architecture has been adopted for its main buildings ; acces sory works of an ornamental kind will ,be more numerous, more imposing, and more original, while at least equally ar tistic In character; greater care is being taken that harmony of effect shall not be injured by the aspect of minor works of utility or decoration ; and the neighbor hood of the great lake, ; and the novel and skillful way in which wide expanses ot water and varied plantations have been made the basis of the plan of the grounds themselves, will much more than compensate for the absence of a rushing river like the Siene and a dom inating hill like the Trocadero. The Eiffel Tower is a marvelous, an interest ing, and hardly an ugly structure; but it is not an artUtic structure. It did not conflict with its surroundings at Paris. But anything resembling it anything remarkable chiefly for size or for me chanical ingenuity would look pain fully out of place on the Chicago grounds: This fact suffices to prove their higher degree of beauty ; and the fact that no conspicuous structure ap pealing in any way to mere curiosity, or to the love of the new or the marvelous, has been contemplated by the authorities at Chicago, proves how seriously and wisely artistic a spirit is controlling the great enterprise. Those who fail to see the exhibition ot 1893 will fail to see the most beautiful spectacle which has been offered to the eyes of our generation. ; But those who have time to see only its general aspect, without studying any of its collections wonderfully interesting though these will be will have seen the very best of it. t When we remember what a great im pulse was given to the popular love of art by the collections shown in the ex hibition of 1876, what may we not ex pect as a result of the stately, beauti ful, and truly poetic panorama ot art that will be unrolled before the eyes of the Nation in 1893? It will show for the first time, to scores of thousands of Americans who have never traveled abroad and can scarcely hope to do bo, what is the meaning of the word beauty, what is the significance of the word art. It will convince them, as nothing else but long and intelligent foreign travel could, that beauty is an enjoyable thing, that art is a thing worth striving for and pajing for. ' Indeed, no amount of foreign travel could teach this lesson so clearly as it will be taught to the average American by the plain fact that all this stately splendor was thought worth geting and worth paying for by hard-headed American business men, and for a merely temporary purpose. One con stantly hears expressions ot -regret that buildings and sculptures Yo costly ani beautiful should be destined to last for a . few months 'only. But, in truth, their transitory character will vastly augment tfcfeir missionary power. Even the-most ignorant may dimly .understand that it is worth while to take pains and spend money upon a result which is to be for all time; but at Chicago they will be told that this is worth while even for a result of almost ephemeral duration. Had Chicago equaled Paris, it would be greatly to our credit ; but it has sur passed Paris. Had it produced a beauti ful exhibition injmitation of the Paris Exhibition, it would again be much; but it has conceived an entirely different . ideal, and carried it out on entirely novel lines. . We shall have an exhibition more dignified, beautiful and truly artistic than any the world has seen; and it will be entirely our own, in general idea and in every detail of its execution. It will convince all cultivated Americans, we . repeat, of the vitality and vigor and in dependence of American art; and, we believe, its effect upon the vast public which will view it will convince them of the genuiness of the j nascent Ameri- ' can love of art. The One Cent Coin. f Few of the present generation have any knowledge how the present one cent piece came into circulation. Prior to the Civil War the coin which repre sented one cent weighed exactly half an ounce. ( There were plenty in circula tion for the population of the time. But when the war broke out it seemed as if coins of all denominations had been wallowed up. Token of various kinds were made first of cardboard, then of metal. i A small coin about the size of the K resent one cent piece was produced, avingupoa it various devices, such as "Not one cent," "Good enough for de fence," "Our country forever." From six hundred to one thousand varieties of these tokeus were made and issued. As they were taken to represent a cent by everybody, those who had copper enough on hand, and could make or procure molds or dies, realized a good profit from the making and issuin- of these tokens. The size and weight were convenient, and the United States Gov ernment saw that the people were better pleased with the small piece, although comparatively valueless, than with the old half-ounce coin. j As the object was to . keep the sub sidary coins in the country, and as the people were content to use the smaller pieces, the experiment was tried in the issue of the "turkey .buzzard" mixed nickle cent. They were larger, thicker ani heavier than the present cent, and did not please as well as the tokens had 'pleased. After trying two or three is sues of the nickle coin," spme with the flying eagle and others with the Indian's head,-the United States Government de- t tided upon the present style of coin Yankee Blade. j Ha$ a Hum an To!ce.

T. Barnett, of El Paso County, Texas, speaks as follows in the Ken York Sun about the great bloated rat tiers that live in the Staked Plains coun trv: - -' - - " What do you think of a rattlesnake that carried a string of twenty-three rat tles and had a head five inches long and three inches wide at the angles of the jaw? He had fangs about the shape of , sickle blade, and they were an inch ana , quarter long. The, poison sacs at the roots of these fangs containedv half s thimbleful of venom. The snake thur equipped measured between sir and seven feet in leaeth. and his skin, when removed and laid flat, was a foot wide in the middle. I ran across that inter esting serpent one -nice August day in the vicinity of the Laguna Sabines, in Gains County, and as he showed no dis position to move out of the way I shot him. He was a good type of the bloat ed rattlesnake of the Staked Plains, and was the most horrible Iookinsr specimen of the serpent family I had ever seen or imagined up to that time. . I afterward saw many just like him. - The rattle snake of the North is savage enough and poisonous euougn, but ms relative of the Staked Plains is many degrees his supe rior in both savagery and venom. This deadly reptile is terrible enough any day in the year, out it is not until along about the middle of August that he takes on the fullness of his f rightfulness, both physically and morally. It is then that he becomes puffed Up and swollen. for some reason and from some cauie that no one seems to know, until he gets to bebearly a third more in girth than his normal size. This snake is alwavs sluggish and slow to move, except when putting nimseit in shape to strike, but i in August he simply makes no effort to move at all with that same exception. He is absolutely one bisr. swollen rese- voir of venom at this time of the vear. He must be or his bite could not kill an Apache Indian in less than hour, as one is Known to nave done. lt fact, the nature of this hideous shake may be im agined or might be if you lived down there when it is known that it is a ter ror even to the Apache Indians. Any thing that is worse than an Apache has got to be the worslrthing on earth, in the estimation of the Texas plainsmen. But these Indians utilizn th Stak d Plains rattler all the same.

The visitor must leave his fan in the antechamber, and, entering the reception-room, seat himself respectfully on his heels in front of the shrine. If there are three kakemonos (pictures on rollers'). he must examine first the central one. then that to the left, and, lastly, the one on the right hand. He then is sud- posed to signify his opinion as to the exact degree or admiration to be ex pressed according to the character of the specimens.

"Esthetics ot Pig Keeping, or Culture," in which pigsties built of art tiles were; so attractively pictured that, within our own knowledge, several art piggeries were established, and one of these, at least, has prospered." The only difficulty about raising pigs is (hat one becomes so fond of them that the pain of parting overcomes the desire for gain. The little pig la one of the most lovable of animals. It is noisy, but affectionate, playful. The pig, moreover, is dainty m its tastes, and with a preference for cleanliness. Its reputa tion otherwise is due to evil circum stances. A physician has ; said that of all animals the skin and flesh of a pig are most like those of roan. - He pre serves through all circumstances the tra ditions of cleanliness. He must have his balh, and if he takes it in a mud hole it is because no other place is pro vided. No other creature is brought up at so little expense, and is such clear gam when all is over. Two girU who concluded to stop cn the farm instead of becoming typewriters went into pig culture. They had the solid ground floors as carefully laid out nd drained as a tennis ground. This, neatly enclosed,' was the stye, and so arranged that it could be flooded and kept clean. The pigs were , -allowed to run at large within --the en closed space" and a bathing'was given them suitable lo-their "natural tastes. All that .the family did not eat they ate. Special varieties of weeds were culti vated for their use. There were halcyon days spent in gathering acrons and ground nuts. Neither food nor corn was bought for them. They were not fattened to be sold by the pound, but kept healthy, clean and appropriately lean. When the painful moment ar rived that they were considered ripe they were not sold to the butcher, nor to the dealer in hogs; they were, con tracted for by individuals who knew of their careful rearing. There were seven teen pigs in all having cost comparatively nothing; they brought in $255. The young women who make this report say that the money does not express the pleasure of their open air life, of the companio nshipthe friendship and affec tion they experienced in this, their first attempt at pig culture. In the pam of separation their consolation was that their pigs did not go to strangers, but were eaten and appreciated by acquain tances. New York Sun. , FASHION KOTBS. . ..

The first and fundamental principle of marketing is to pay cash. The pass book system is one of the greatest curses to the laboring man and ought to be banished from our land. Keep, instead, a daily expense book, and post up once every month, and you will know what it costs to furnish your table every week, and every meal, too, if you carry your division far enough. If possible deal with a cash grocer, ' aud the one having the largest assort ment of golds. You can buy more ad vantageously by having a large stock and different grades from which to select. Though it is an axiom in cook book literature that the best is the cheapest, the careful buyer will often find intermediate grades in many ar tides that answer fully as well as the higher priced ones. Buy as many things by the quantity as possible, and beware of buying potatoes by the half peck, or sugar by the quarter's worth. The small measure goes along with the pass book and is the grocer's ow n harvest. St. Louis Republic. , AIT ECONOMICAL TABLE COYER.

Either this or the single-faced can be used, but the double-faced is pre ferable on account of its extra thickness. The shade can be selected to match the furniture. When cut into suitable size it is bordered with a contrasting shade of the same material of any desired width, and folded so as to leave the fold for the outside edge, and stitched on. To cover the samesewon a strip of velvet or yelveteen, with cross (or feather) stitch of filoselle or contrasting shade.. Gold is preferable. This come in all colors, costs but a trifle, and each thread can be split in two or three strands.

American writer on bee culture ad vocates the crossings of ordinary bees with the giant bees of India, so as to ob tain a race with a longer proboscis and perhaps of increased size. If this im proved race were then crossed with the South American stingiest bee, he believes ' a breed would be obtained having all the good points of the Italian bee, with lengthened proboscis and no sting. The same authority considers that the swarm ing instinct might be successfully bred out of bees if it were deemed desirable to destroy it. Detroit Free Press. . HINTS TO DCTTE R-MAKERS. Be careful not to overwork the butter, injuring the grain and making grease of it. Work by pressure and not by fric tion. A slanting worker with a movable roller or with a level attached at one end will be found to lessen the labor, and is much preferable to the bowl and ladle. Put up in a neat ana attractive form, and get it to the consumer as quickly as pos sible. If it is thought better to do so it may be packed solidly in tubs or crocks and covered with butter cloth or parch ment paper and a salt -plaster so . as to exclude the' air. To this salt-covering fresh brine should be added from time to time. To prepare ash or spruce tubs to be filled with butter they should be soaked with brine for one or two days, afterward rinsed, scalded and have salt sprinkled on the inside before packing in the butter. Tin-lined butter tubs are used by a number of butter makers. American Dairyman. . don't.

A Marseilles gentleman has distanced him, having crowded on a .card of the same size, 2660 words, representing an article of 31. Starcey and a poem of De puty Clovis Hughes, both legible with out a magnifying g'. though not, I imagine, without a good pair of eyes. The above feats are nothing beside that of another competitor for the gold mcdsl, a Government clerk, if. 8urvigny, wLo has on a post card written out an official directory, from the President and bis household down to the members of the Paris Municipal Council altogether 6000 words. He spent twenty-eight bojrs over this at leisure momeots, and worked with the naked eye.

Our Colonel, an old campaigner who had won his spur in tne Crimea, became involved in a diffi cult with a fellow officer, and a duel the result. Tae Colonel, being the ehallsaged party, selected pistols as the weapons and elected that, the affair should occur ia a darkened room. We secured a room twentyf ret square, closed every crevice that wouid admit light, placed our men in corners diagonally 0 posite aqd withdrew. 'Fichmsnwas provided with three charges and when these were exhausted we rushed ia to gather up'the mutiUted remains. Each man stood erect and soldier-like in the corner untouched, but directly behind the head of the Colonel's opponent were the three bullet boles made by the Colonel's pistol. Hcw is this'! said a gTixz!ed old Major. . Had you been standing here when ' those shots were fired you would have been killed Tha culprit was compelled to admit that he had'dropped to one knee.
