The Melbourne (Australia) Argus called attention some years ago to the remarkable fact that three young men destined to high distinction in difler ent spheres Lord Salisbury, the statesman, Sir John Millais, the paint er, and Thomas Woolner, the sculp tor Were simultaneously in Viotoria at the height of the gold fever in the early fifties. This bicycle business is assuming tremendous proportions, and even, the imagination gets tired thinking about it, observes the New York Herald. Ten years ago it was a fad, a craze, and a few cranks, so called, were seen on the streets trying to get 1 their, necks broken. Now all the world rides the wheel ; policemen ride them, soldiers ride them, gentlemen and ladies of all ages take a spin. To supply the de mand there are something like four hundred firms, making money hand over fist, and it is estimated that in the various plants more than $25,000, 000 is invested. Why, the whole thing has come upon us like a tor nadV China is sending out a new detach ment of her youth to be educated in our schools, showing an enlightened and progressive spirit in no way di minished, by her recent military re verses. If she continues in this excel lent custom, equipping her chosen young men with the science and cul ture of the modern period, and at the same time admits, as she is now doing, progressive ideas in her administra tion, she will not be so easily whipped the next time, the New York Tribune observes, and will take the place in civilation which properly belongs to her, as her sister , Nation Japan has already done, to the wonderment and admiration of mankind, including that of the humbled pigtails themselves, who may, after alii gather out of the nettle of defeat a choicer flower than the rose of triumph. If she is not quite so grandiose in her general atti tudes as she was before . she was whipped, she knows more, a fact vari ously evinced, but in no particular more showingly than in again sending her youth hither to be instructed in our schools. - Chief Fernow. nf fii t Division at Washington, D. O., makes t some valuable suggestions in his eleventh bulletin. Th Kniiafn states that the South can make the cultivation of the cork oak very prof itable in time. : We pay about $2, 000,000 a year for imported cork, and prices are steadily rising. The Gov ernment distributed cork oak acorns' in the South as, far back as 1858, and there are now standing sbveral cork trees in the Southern States, one of them as far north as middle Georgia. A large one is now, standing in Mis- v sissippi City, Miss., and there are probably twentyjin California. The ; fact that the tree will flourish in the South has been demonstrated. The wattle tree, a native of Australia, is also reoommended for cultivation, r It belongs to the ' acacia family, and contains , more tannic ncid than 'I the : oak. It is propagated from seeds, ' which are soaked until soft in boiling water Deiore planting. This tree will . do well in warm climates. This euca lyptus is. reoommended on account of its ' rapid - growth, ' the value : of -i the wood and the oil contained in the foli age. Some claim that it is an antidote 'for malaria. The bamboo deserves a. .trial, maintains the Atlanta Const it a -tution. 'It is not la tree but a giant grass, allied to our cane.; One variety ; grows gLn Florida, where it has been knpwn to grow a foot a day in height - and reach twenty-two feet -in a single season. - it is in demand for many "useful and ornamental purposes, We have been wasting; our forests lc ' enough.5 A Why not turn "over a 'new ' leaf and try the trees recommended by. the Forestry Division? - FOR HER SAKE. , -" All day long, with sigh or song, Toil I for her sake; -She la where the roses throng .

Stanton. AUNT SUSAN'S QUILT. TT F Jimmv bride , ain't pleased with that, I don't know what would please 'em," said little Mrs. Dake with arms akim bo and head twisted to one side. as she mmm' stepp,ed b?k fld - gazed with ad miration at the object spread out on the bed. it was a carefully pieced 4uilt, of a somewhat intricate pat tern. "Jimmy's bride can't help being tickled with that," said Mrs. Dake, as she smoothed out a fold; "and if she knows anything about , nice quilting, she'll see that wa'n't quilted in a day. Well, I guess not I - I quilted ev'ry last stitch of it myself, and there's a ood half day's work in some of them blocks with the feather and herrin' bone patterns and the shell border all 'round the aidge. I had that quilt in the frames five weeks and three days, and I put all the time I could get oU it, and there ain't no slack work, tired as I did get of seeing it 'round." , She smoothed out another crease. "Lemme see," she went on. There's 2147 pieces in the quilt, and a good many of 'em are pieces of Jim my's baby dresses. That'll please his wife, I jest know. Here's a block made of calico like a little pink dress he had when his ma first put him into short dresses. I remember it was made with a low neck and short sleeves, like they made baby dresses in them days, and his little shoulders and arms were almost as pink as the dress. . "And here's pieces like a little dou ble gown he had 'fore he went into short dresses. And this pieoe of blue chambry is like a little sunbonnet he had, all lined with fine white jaoonet. And here is a pieoe of fine muslin with 4 little pink sprig in it like the first short dress Jimmy ever had. He did look so ounnin' in it, with the sleeves looped back, and a tumble-curl on the tap of his head t I 'I'll show his wife-to-be all these pieces, and if she ain't tickled with the quilt, she'll be a queer one." Then Mrs. Drake went over to an old-fashioned mahogany bureau with brass knobs, and took from the upper trawer a large, square cream-tinted envelope, out of which she carefully drew the "invite" to Jimmy's wed ding. j ''Mr. and Mrs. William H. Hol brook invite you to be. present at the marriage of their daughter Helen and James Barclay Larkin, Wednesday evening, September 14th." Then followed the address of the bride's parents, in a city four hundred miles from Mrs. Dake's home, j "But I'm goin'I" she said, glee fully, as she slipped the invitation back into its envelope. "I'd go if it was twice as far. I ain't seen Jimmy for near on to five years, and he al ways seemed like my own boy to me "cause I never had none o' my own, and I helped to bring him up after his own ma died, when he wa'n't jbut just in his first little trousies. "I ain't, been so far from home in many a long year, and I reckoned my travelin' days was done, but I've got io go and see Jimmy married. I must see Elviry Hodge right away about turning and making over my black silk, and I must see Samantha Rose about a new cap. I guess I'll have to have something smart for a city wed din1, where they'll all be finished up so. I don't want Jimmy to be shamed of his old aunty ; but lawsy me I Jimmy wouldn't be ashamed of me , if I went in my plain calioo house dress. He wa'n't raised to set clothes above his relations, and he ain't got nothing to be ashamed of in any of Then Jimmy's aunt, her face aglow ith loving thoughts of seeing Jimmy gain, folded up the quilt carefully in n old sheet, and lairl it awav m a lower drawer of the bureau, saying : , . L "Is'pose they'll have lots of nice yresenis, duu ru warrant you tney iron't have one that represents as auch lovin' labor as that quilt. I had o cry a little, when I quilted ; them blocks - with the pieces; of his baby presses; in 'em. His wife ought to think the world and all of the quilt. . hope to the land she won't go to using it common. " v r Mrs. Q Dake, who was a widow I land hildless; lived in a small, remote country town, in which her nephew, James Larking had been born, and from which he had gone to become a successful young lawyer in ? the city.' He had not been back to the home of his childhood for five years. t As his Aunt Susan said, he "wa'n't no i hand o write letters." but he often sent brief notes and little gifts to his aunt assure ner oi his affection and grati- He had not announced his encase ment to bar. fft.Tlf? flia iinoitflfiAn 4s Vila rWedding was one of the greatest sur prises of Mrs. Drake's uneventful life. 1 JlJmn. m vkNWWi L-l r ( I I He : jest wanted to give his ' oldl aunty a big s'prise,' she said to Elvira Hodge, the village seamstress, when she came to "fix over" Aunt Susan's black silk. "I couldn't believe my own eyes at first. It don't seem no longer than yesterday that Jimmy' was run nin' 'round here in pinafores ; and to think of him bein married I declare I can't git over it! " 5 "But I'll give him a s'prise, too. I don't intend to give him a hint that I'm comin' to his weddin', and if he won't be took back when he sees me marchin' in onhim, my name ain't Susan Elizabeth Dake!, Don't you reckon' his wif e'll be tickled with that quilt, Elviry?" "They'd ought to be, that's sure," said Elvira. "I think it's a kind af special Provi dence that I put in the frames when I did. I didn't cal'late on auiitin' it until next winter, but I had a kind of feelin' that I'd better do it wherit did, and now it's turned out that there was a good reason why I should quilt then." There was quite a company of Aunt Susan's friends at the little station to see her off on the morning she started. There was unusual color in her cheeks and unwonted sparkle in her eyes. She bade each of her friends good bye two or three times, and promised to take good care of herself. Some of them she promised a crumb of Jimmy's wedding cake,, and a full account of the wedding festivities. "An' if you could git me a scrap of the bride's weddin' dress an' of any of her other dresses for my silk quilt, Susan, I'd be. so pleased with 'em 1" said old Mrs. Gray. "I will if I can, Nancy," said Aunt Susan. " "There's the train comin' 1 I'm so glad I could get my trunk checked clean through! I'd be in a nice fix if that trunk should get lost with Jimmy's quilt and my blaok silk in it ! Where's my lunoh basket ? Oh, you're goin' to carry it away on the train for me, are you, Hiram Drew? I'm 'bleeged to you, but mind you git off the train 'fore it starts. Good-bye, Nancy ; good-bye al 1 " In a moment the train was on its way, Aunt Susan's handkerchief flut tered from one of the car windows as long as the train was within sight of the little station. All the people in the car noticed the happy old lady in her queer, old fashioned garb. Some had not seen for many years a shawl like the one she wore, with its fringe a foot long and silk embroidery in the corners ; but nothing was coarse or amiss in her dress, and there was a quaintness and charm about her that attracted the sympathy of all the passengers. She had not gpne twenty -five miles before she was telling some of them nearest her all about Jimmy and Jim my'B quilt, and the wedding to take place on the coming Wednesday. She was delighted to find that a middle-aged, kindly-looking woman who was one of the passengers lived in the city in which young Mr. Lark -in lived, and could easily show her his boarding house. "I'm so much obleeged to youl" said Aunt Susan. "I've been so dread ful nervous 'bout trying to find the house myself, I hated to write to him to meet me 'cause it'd take off the best part of the s'prise. I jest, want to walk right in on him." That was just what she had the pleasure of doing the next after noon. James Larkin was just taking his wedding suit from the box in which it had been sent home, when there came a knock at the door of his room. Aunt Susan wad trembling with ex citement when her nephew opened the door. "WhVi Aunt Susan! he cried: and 'then he took her in his arms and kissed on both cheeks. There was no lack of tenderness in her nephew's greeting, yet the changes in him were painful to her. He was a beardless, boyish-looking young man. when she had seen him last. Now he was a .tall, broad-shouldered, full bearded man with a way that made it hard for her to call him "Jimmy." He did not say so, but she felt that he would . rather have her call him "James," and that sounded so cold and formal to her. He now had the graces of a city bred young man. . She found it hard to accommodate herself to them, and to the usages of the fashionable board house in whioh her prosperous young nephew lived. He might, perhaps, have wished that Elvira Hodge had made his aunt's gar ments more stylish, when he took her down to dinner, but he was in no sense ashamed of her. When they were going downstairs with her hand timidly resting on his arm, he made her very happy by looking down into her face and saying tenderly and heartily, "1 am so glad you came, Aunt Susan." "I thought you would be," she said, patting his arm affectionately. "You know you're the only boy I ever had." "And you were always the best of mothers to me." But -when she was alone in her room' she wondered if it had been wise for her to come after all. She did not doubt now that James was genuinely happy to see her, bnt she had discov ered that his betrothed was the daugh ter of a rich man, and that the wed ding was to be an elegant afifair. Aunt Susan learned she would' be out of place that she might in. her innocence do or say something to give James and his bride cause to be ashamed of her. ''.. The weddinsr was to take, place the next evening, and there would be no. opportunity for ner to mee ne oriae or her4'4itauntil then."; All was so new ank pgfte to her 1 , ; f She hxiJfcoted to take right hold and help Mrs. Holbrook with the wed ding dinner, : even if she did; keep t a girl. . - There was a, big, new kitchen apron in her trunk, brought with Aunt Sasan to be worn while, she was 'making herself useful in Mrs. , H61 brook's kitchen. ";. It disappointed her to be told by her nephew that her ser vices would not be required, and that , a caterer would provide the supper. '" ' ? She did ; not know what a ; caterer was, and ; felt confused and uneasy,, and went to sleep half wishing herself home. . , - When the next evening she - found herself in the beautiful home of Mr. : Holbrook, surrounded by finely dressed ladies and gentlemen, who looked curiously at the ' odd-looking, little old woman in the queerly-made and old-fashioned black silk, she heartily wished that she had not dome. Mr. and Mrs. Holbrook ware as at tentive to her as they could be with a house full of guests ; but Auni Susan soon found it convenient to slip off into a corner, where she hid like the little country, mouse she was. , But she was glad after all that she had come when James, looking so tall and happy and handsome, came into the great parlor with his bride on his arm, in her trailing, white satin dress and long .yeiL Aunt Susan was so completely overawed by this magnifi oenoe that, instead of going forward with the others to offer her congratu lations, she slipped off upatairs to the room in whioh she had taken off Her bonnet and shawl. In it was her wed ding gift to Jimmy the quilt that had but yesterday seemed to her as beauti ful and appropriate a gift that she could bestow upon him.. Across the hall was the open door of a room almost filled with shining silver and glittering glass, with pic tures and rare ornaments and beauti ful books, gifts to James and his bride. Aunt Susan felt that her . own offer ing, although it was the gift of her own labor and love, would be out of place. It might offend her nephew and his bride to see it there. Some one might laugh and jeer at it, and she could not bear to think of that. It seemed so poor and trifling now ; she could not think of allowing Jimmy and his wife to know that she had brought them such a gift. She turned back a corner of the quilt, and looked at a pieoe of the pink and white muslin of which one of Jimmy's first garments had been made. A flood, of tender memories filled her heart, and she buried her face in her gift and cried as she had not cried for years. There she sat for a long time, pay ing no heed to the noise and merri ment downstairs. Presently she heard a rustle of silk and satin in the hall, and a low murmur of voices. In a moment a pair of soft arms were around her neck, and a girlish voice was saying : "I am so glad we have found you at lost ! We have been -looking every where for you 1" ; When Aunt Susan looked up she found the bride kneeling by ber side, while James was bending low over her. "You haven't been up here all this time, have you?" he said. "We have wondered where you were. Helen was so anxious to see you." "Of course I was," said the bride. "There is no one I am so glad to see. James has told me all abottt you, and it was so good qf you to come so far to see us married. You mpst kiss us and wish us joy, won t you "If you'll let me," safd Strean, with the tears still in her eyes. "Let you 1" said James. "We should think it very strange if you didn't. What have you here ? It looks like one of the quilts you used to make. It is a quilt, isn't it" Aunt Susan tried to contceal the quilt,' but James took it fromher and unfolded it. suddenly he said1: "Why, Aunt Susan, didn't you bring this for a wedding present?''' "Well, I I did think I'd give it to your wife, James," said Aund: Sa san, soberly. "I thought that (well well, you see, I made it ev'ry statoh mvself and and there's lots- of pieces in it from the first clothes you ever had, and I thought maybe she'd like it because I did it ev'y stitch my self and " "Like it?" cried Helen. "I- shall value it above any gift I have had! It is beautiful I never saw su;ch exquis ite needlework ! What weeks of labor it must have cost you. I am so proud of it!" "She said them very words, " said Aunt Susan to half a dozen of her de lighted friends who came to see her the day she reached home. She was so tickled over the quilt. She fairly cried when I showed her the blocks made but of pieces of Jimmy's things: "She said she'd think the world and all of it. She and Jimmy had to go off on their weddin tower in about an hour, and I expected to come home that night; but Mr. and Mrs. Hol brook wouldn't hear to it. ."They made me stay there a whole week, and they treated me as if I wad one of the greatest ladies in the land. They iook me to ride ev'ry day, and tney never seemea to mma a oiz aooui my old-fashioned ways and clothes. . "I had a beautiful time, and the best part of it is Jimmy and his wife are coming to make me a visit on their way home from their tower next week You never see such a splendid young woman as she is!"

His Writing Reversed. Drsj Kichards and Gordon, of Quinoy, held a consultation Thursday over the. case of Postmaster Charles F.

After a careful diagnosis of the case the physicians decided that he was suffering from congestion of the base of the brain and that the disease had been developing during quite a long period. One peculiarity of his mental condition has been a change in his method of writing. In stead of writing from left to right, as he has previously been accustomed to do, he has, during his sickness, when attempting to write, reversed the style and has written backhanded, or from right to left. Thursday he wrote his name in his ordinary manner, how ever, which was considered a striking sign of improvement in his condition by his physicians and friends.
