The word "let." for examjile, which in former times, a- we m iv see from its use in the authorized version of the. Hible, sometimes meant to hinder, has now come to have a precisely opposite mean in.-;. "Homelike" is a term of com mend at'on. but "homely," which is the same wt-rd with the last tyvo letters omit'.e 1, a; we may say, has gradually taken on an unfavorable significance. A German scho'ar, who is now a jto fessor in an American college, L fond of relating a bit of his early experience in speaking the English language. He hal been in this country only a few weeks when he was invited to jiass an evening at the house of a Philadelphia gentleman, who had three very attract ive daughters. All the members of the family did their best to make bis call agreeable; and he enjoyed the evening greatly. When he took his leave he naturally expressed his gratitude somewliat effus ively. He assured the lady of the house that he bail sjientamost delightful even ing in her "homely home,", and in the comjiany of her "homely daughters. " With all her goodness of heart, his hostess could not conceal the fact that his remarks were offensive, and the pro fessor went home in a very unpleasant quandary. He sought a friend's advice, and at the first opjioriunity explained to his kind entertainer that "homely" in German was equivalent to "hosjntable, " and had been used by him in that sense. Satisfn tory Work by Macliinery. It is now estimated that in tiie cotton and w olen industries more than two thirds of the work formerly done by hand is ac -om dished by machineiy, and with far more satisfactory results. Thus in the washing and drying of wool the feed ing in former times was done entirely by baud, the fact being that in the washers this hand feeding allowed the lumps and bunches to be torn apart by the rollers or forks of the washing machine, by which the wool, in the hot alkaline solu tion, was likely to be fetted or the fibers destroyed. In the dryers, where a current of hot air is continually circulating, the wool must be equally distributed, so as to oifer equal resistance to the current; for if this is not attended to tne result is tnat through scant or thin places the greater I-, of wool in its ijassage a result invariably : obtained by band feeding. At present ,' machints are made specially designed for opening and feeding wool, simple in con struction, and saving labor both in wash ing and drying processes. By using these machines the wool is separated in its state without iniurv to the stanle. and enters tne nquor ror TrainTiing in mih I'Xisf couil: lion; being well loosened be fore entorincr; tbo dryer, and more equally fed, it becomes more readily dried, and the r. i -t:::iee being equalized the heat will :ut produce the scorching effects.

The grocer usually keeps two grades of brooms, which are sold at 25 and 85 cents apiece, respect ively. Ilo iays 17 cents each for tho cheaper brooms and 21 cents, or $2.50 a dozen, for the one he sells at 35 cents, thus making 14 cents on what he calls the i,;-,t and 8 on the cheaper article. " The. i ' i.uite an export trade in broom corn iii ordinary times and in brooms in other times. With low prices on tlie corn the corn is shipped, but when the broom makers have a spurt, as they some times do, and flood the market, no broom trust having yet been formed, brooms aie sold so low as to enable merchants to send tlu-m to Cuba and South America. Very liule broom corn is ordinarily sent to Kttropo, the fields of southern Franco and of Italy supplying the European market. "What is the triek in this tiale.lt there be tricks in ail tr;:,. .- 'i " ye.Ls asked of a dealer in broom corn. "It is in making poor corn look like good.

Lafayette, a descenelant tif the great Lafayette, and oneof tlie most )rominent men in the French ujper cliamlier, has been bilking to an American reporter aliout some things in tnis big country. "We Parisians th. lk that no place in th -world comes up to our city of life and gayetv. However, jwrodying the words of Alexander the Great, I may con fess that if I were not a Parisian I would like to lie a New Yorker. We have no animation in Paris to comjiare v ith all one sees, for example, in 23d street. But that is not what -truck me the most. Here in Paris everything is for the rich. Paris is the earthly bliss of tlie moneyed man. The democracy before which I bow exists in Paris only as a thing to be talked about, written about; in New York the democracy it an actuality and has its place. There are cheap boarding houses unknown in Paris and although the gf ii ral idea is tliat New York is a terri ble exjiensive city, one can, nevertheless, live there at half the price required for Paris. Again in New York, the repub lic (which here is only a phantom, for m Paris we have the most aristocratic people in the world in sjyite of 1790) is a reality and not a sham. In no town in t) e world have I so felt tliat there is not a jmrer form of government than that of a republic. "In looking at American citizen as they bustle ii'iouhe Broadway or any other of the large avenues of tlie Empire City. I feel that I see liberty in its finest manifestation. Icannot say that Ithink the Hudson c imes up to the exaggerated descriji ons which have been given of it. People over here imagine it is the most beautiful river in America. When I Lost returaeel from America, acting oq the advice of a friend of mine in New York, instead of taking ship from that place ,1 Canada, down the St. iayvrence. ?iiw cnat. rr you nse, is Ui- need a beautiful river undescribably beau tiful an ever changing pamorama. I have often wondered why more people doii't come home that way. The voyage is short and the scenery that one sees is superior to anything elaa on the wliole eonti'.ont. "Generally sjeaking, the America, rivers are ugly. Tlie journey up the much talked of Mississippi is one of tho dreariest exjieriences one can undergo days and days of nothing but treses, then a syvaiTip j'erh ips with bushes growing out of it, behind that a forest of middle height, and behind that again a high wall of loftyj timber, and so on and on, day after due. I was never more dejiressed in my life than aft -r a few days of that kind of journeying. Now, along the St. Lawrence there is always something fresh and p'ei'r'n to the eye. " Highly Faithful. Tlie de-ir.ibie. y of learning how to make one"- y, ords express what is meant and nothing else is well illustrated by the dubioin efTecl of tho following, extract from a rfc nit -. rk on "Domestic !

But few persons wno new a passenger train as it goes thundering past have an idea that it represents a cash value of from 75,000 to $120,000, but such is the case.

The engine and tender are valued at $10,500; the baggage car, $1,000; the postal car, $2,000; the smoking car, $5,000; two ordi nary passenger cars, $10,000 each; three palace cars, $15,000 each to: al, $83,000.

Instead of being appalled and discouraged by the wholesale de struction of their homes and property, its inhabitants seem to have acquired fresh energy from disaster, and the anniversary of the fatal 81st of May, 188a, found them more hopeful and in better condi tion every way than they were a year ago. That they did not fall into the lethargy of despair is largely duo to the promptness with which the people of other cities responded to the appeals for aid sent out in their behalf, and the un paralleled generosity shown to them in J theu- hour of need has not and never will be fareottart. ltret II a r te in Losdon. Bret Harte is now living in a quiet cottage in Grove End Road, near St. John's Wood. He is ere.ttiner old and his hair is white, but the novelist still re tains all his old fire. His books sell im mensely in England more than those of any other American writer. Mr. Harte's family is not with him, and the general impression in London is that he is a widower. Mr. Joseph Hatton, a warm friend and neighbor of Mr. Harte, informs me that he is not now in the consular service. No American is in vited into the best English society more than Bret Harte. His American stories warm the English heart. They never tire of the novelist's story about the first jury trial in California, and this is the way ne told it tne other night: "It was over in the Mariposa Gulch, in '50. They had never had a jury trial there. If a man stole a horse they lynched him, and that settled it. But the people, many of whom came from Massachusetts, began to tire of lynch law and sigh for the good old jury trial of the East. So one day, when Bill Stev ens had jumped a poor man's claim, the Massachusetts fellows resolved to give ln'm a good old fashioned jury trial. Ihey tooic him into the back end of the board post office, selected a jury, and the trial commenced. Dozens of witnesses were called, and finally the jury retired to agree on a verdict. When they had about concluded that Jim was innocent the boys outside came banging at tho door. "What, do you fellows want?" asked tlie foreman through the keyhole. "We want to know if you hain't about agreed on the verdict. If you liain t vt u'il have to get out. We want this room to lay out the corpse in!" U. S.
