Wedding Flowers.

For recent -weddings some beautiful floral designs have been made, some of which are novel. At one. the bouquet of the bride was composed of Lily of the Valley, several hundred sprays being used in this one bunch. The bridesmaids’ bouquets were of Crimson King Carnations, fringed with “Maid of Guernsey” chrysanthemums; each bunch contained 150 carnations, and the edging of the wild white petals of the chrysanthemums was exquisitely lovely. At a charming wedding, the bride and bridegroom stood under a wishbone of flowers in heroic size which was swung from one end of the draw-ing-room from a stem fringed with autumn leaves. The top of the wishbone was studded with brilliant carnations of La Purete variety. The ends were also of this flower. The limbs of the wishbone were woven with white carnations. Smilax garlanded the banisters. The plant decoration was small but choice. The bride carried a bunch of Mennet roses and the bridesmaids’ bouquets were of crimson King Carnations and Perle des Jardin rosebuds. For another wedding, a lattice screen was made to cover the long mirror before which the marriage took place. This screen was composed of coils of smilax plaided. and the effect of this light lattice was very beautiful. Over the top was suspended a large basket of roses and spring flowers. There was a straw vase filled with pink rosebuds and mignonette, with a cluster of Jacqueminots at the center. The novelty in ornamental growing plants for the house is the hanging shell of Lycopodium, which is extremely pretty. Some of the shells are ordinary conch shells; others are made of glazed plaster, and colored with foam tints. The moss is arranged to droop, and it has a light and refreshing effect. Brackets filled with Lycopodium add grace and cheerfulness to any apartment. The only care required is sprinkling as often as the moss dries. 'Growing ferns are the fashionable ornament for the table. Recent adornments for an evening reception consisted of a floral piece representing a musical score, the bass woven in flowers on a white background, the whole supported by a floral harp. Over the mirror was a network of delicate smilax, which crossed the glass in deep festoons, on which rested tiny humming-birds and butterflies. Against the wall, on one side, was a lyre, on the other a harp. Around and on the mantle were arranged handsome plants; amid which stood a piano made of flowers. Over the folding doors leading to the library was suspended, from cordons of smilax, a flower violin and flute. Birch-bark canoes, lined with tin and planted With ferns, or filled with cutflowers and trailing vines, suspended from the chandelier, have a very pretty effeot, in conjunction with other decorations, Jfor evening- entertainments.

Should Women Carry Umbrellas?

Humph! Aud so everybody on your staff is audacious enough, to advocate the legislative prohibition to woman of the means of keeping her head dry when it rains. We do hope that he is a married man with at least a half-doz-en unmarried and unmarringeable daughters, and that they and his wife will all l>e caught out in an April shower with their new Easter bonnets on, and will march into his sanctum and refuse, to stir .until he shall eall coupes and let them stop at Mme. Fussandfcathors and 4 order, seven new bonnets. Serve him right if he had to pledge his watch to got rid of them. But the indications are that he is a musty, crusty old bachelor, disappointed in his youth, and ever on the alert to work off his spleen against woman in general and somebody in particular. Well, double or single, he is a man, and. wo will wager a new hat that we can tell just how he carries a closed umbrella. Ho “is born that way.” It is a physical impossibility for him “to do it otherwise.” He will balance it on the top of his shoulder, or else hug it under his arm a square right angle to his side, with the greater part protruding in the real-, and then, pray, who holds th@ “death-dealing weapon” above “danger line?” and who can do the most harm, he or a weman with an umbrella at full sail? He can, probatum est, for we were down town yesterday, and in a crowd came within range of the metal tip of an umbrella .penciled upon the shoulder of a man. We knocked it away m self defense; he growled- and knocked baok, thenwo turned and knocked again. Result: He has been released on bail to await consequences. Letter to Boston Globe.

Breaking a Mustang.

Iu an entfe'rtaiuing paper in the St. Nicholas, entitled “Among the Mustangs,” Noah Brooks gives the following grn.pl lie, account of the methods of capturing and breaking the wild horse of the prairies: “Riding at full speed, the Mexicans Career over the plains like •wild men, whirling their coiled lariats, or lassos, over their heads as 'they fly. Their horses are Covered with foam, and ofteu bleeding from the cruel spurs with which they are urged on. The earth trembles under the tramp of many hoofs beating the Bolid ground, as pursuer and pursued gallop madly far and wide. Suddenly the lariat siDgs through the air, its noose opens itself and drops ovcrtlie head of a terrified fugitive, the hunter’s steed instantly braces it self .with itjforefeet aiid,drops: on its liaundies, so as to make an anchorage, as it were, for the caught -mustang. And there is go escape now for the captive. “ “The hunter next blinds his prize, takes a turn of the lariat around its forelegs, forces a heavy bit into its rn'puth, and at once begins to ‘break’ it to the saddle. How do you suppose the poor mustang feels when it finds itself saddled, bridled, and straddled by a tyrant man? In vain it ‘jumps stiff-logged/ plupgea, and ‘ kicks.’ No in tf.fi world has so many tricks and antics as a newly captured wild horse; but man, its conqueror, is equal to all of these. In a few hours the poor beast, so lately a free and careless creature, a wild rover of the boundless plains, is reduced to abject subjection. Its spirit is broken, and, though it may still retain* some of its native vicious-□

: i ness, it is the slave of its owner. Henceforth it never forgets the lasso.. It kbows and dreads the sight of one; and, if it escapes, there is very little difficulty in catching it again. But its rider, too, must never forget that the hapless captive is only half-taraed. He must watch it narrowly, for oftsn afterward, when he least suspects such insubmission, the steed he rides will try to throw him, and will struggle under the saddle as if it were but newly snared.”

Tramps’ Baggage.

“Do you see that old pile of valises there in the corner?” said the agent of the Pacific Express Company. “All of these yalises belong to tramps, who have shipped them to various parts of the country.” “How do you know that the valises belong to tramps ?” “Because, after many years’, service ‘in the express business we locate things by instinct. The majority of the valises will never be called for and will be sold at auction, because their aspiring and migratory owners have long since been killed while trying to steal a ride on the track of a freight train. ” “How long is such freight kept before it is sold?” “We allow it to remain for a year, and then sell it at auction to the highest bidder. Very often I have seen a tramp come into the office and show a receipt for an old valise that had been on hand for at least eight or ten months. He would open it and take out a comparatively clean shirt and put a soiled one in its place, and then ask me what it would cost to send the valise to Little Hock. I would state the express charge, and then he would say, ‘ Will it cost much more to send it to El Paso ? ’ 4 Yes a little more.’ ‘lf I send it to Santa Fe, how long will they keep it before it is sold ? ’ ‘ One year.’ ‘Well, if that’s the case, just send it to Santa Fe; I’ll be there in that time. Here’s your money sir,’ And without another word, he will turn and'walk out, and you will never see his gentle face again. New Means Times-Democrat.

“The Autograff Bizness.”

Josh Billings hits the nail oh the liead wiien lie writes: “I receive every day from four to ten letters asking me for my autograph, all of which I reply to, sending the desired signature. The matter has grown into a first-class business. To make it profitable one thing must hereafter be observed. I shall not be able to supply the demand only to those who inclose a stamped and addressed envelope for remailing. That may be tuff, but it is so honest that I think a barbarian would shed tears over it. It may pay a new beginner in the autograft’ trade to send his signature in an envelope stamped by himself, but I feel as though I had?got a peg higher in the traffick. If this bizness is did as it is did now, in forty or fifty years more I will be expected not only to furnish each applicant with an autograff, but a box of pills and as 2 greenback to pay them for the trouble. ”

Some Little Satisfaction.

A speculator who bad dropped $60,000 in Wall street, inside of throe months, was asked by an acquaintance if he wasn’t sorry that he had invested his money in speculation. “Well, no,” he answered. “If I hadn’t .done so I should have always felt that I might have doubled my money in speculation.” “Wereyou badly reduced?” “So badly that my watch has gone to the pawn-shop.” “It is too bad—too bad!” “Well, I dunno about that. On the one hand I’ve lost my last dollar and poverty stares me in the face, while on the other I have the satisfaction of Snowing that my family is not acquiring habits of extravagance.

A Singular Position.

“Do you see that man over by the Postoflice corner lounging so carelessly ?” asked Jones of a friend as he was exhibiting the sights of the dingy metropolis. “Oh, yes; I see him, of course,” replied his companion. “I don’t see anything remarkable about him. ” “Why, he’s a politician, you know; runs the machine; in all the big jobs; makes I don’t know how much money, and just howl Why look at him! Do y<ra^otfeer«»iWo^Tfie®*£af!£»6lß?* r - ■ “Can’t say I do.” “Why, he’s got his hands in his own pockets !” —Pittsburgh Chronicle-Tel-egraph.

The Reason a Good Little Boy Didn’t Want to Attend School.

“Have you been attending school regularly since I left home, Johnnie?” asked Congressman Grabe, who had come on from Washington to spend a few days with his family. “No, sir!”frankly replied the Washingtonian boy. “ Why, my boy,” said the indulgent parent; “you won’t know anything when you grow up to be a manunless you go to school now.” “Well,” replied the boy, with a satisfied air, “ I don’t want to know nothin’, I’m goiu’ to be a Congressman like you, papa, when I grow up. ”

Sand as a Motive Power.

In Nevada the scarcity of water has prompted the nse of sand to drive an over-shot Wheel. A wind wheel runs a belt containing a large number of baskets and these carry the sand into a large tank and a large stream of sand is allowed to fall on the over-shot wheel, which operates just the same as water. When there is much wind sand is stored up for use when calm prevails, so the j machinery is never idle. After a suffij cient quantity of sand has once been ao- ! cumulated there is no more trouble on that seore, the same sand being used over and over.— Exchange. : It appears that the leaf of a plant • can transform into useful work as much as 40 per cent, of the solar energy it receives and absorbs.

“THE THIRD HOUSE.”

It* Good and Bad Members—The Remark, Experience of a dose Observer o I Its IVorUtnjti During a Dong Residence a ll Washington. V *7T u [Correspondence Rochester Democrat.] No city upon the American continent has s larger floating population than Washington, It i 6 estimated that during the sessions ot Congress 25,000 people, whose homes are in various parts of this and other countries, make this city their 1 place of residence. Some come here, attracted by the advantages the city offers for making the acquaintance of public men; others'have various claims which they wi‘h to present, while the great majority gather here, as the crows flock to the carrion, for the sole purpose of getting a mors :! at the publie crib. The latter class, as a general thing, originate the many schemes which terminate in vicarious bills, all of which are either directed at the publfc treasury or toward that revenue which the black-mailing of corporations or private enterprises may bring. _ - A While walking down Pennsylvania avenue the other day, I met Mr. William M. Ashley, formerly of your city, whose long residence here has made him unusually well acquainted' with the operations of the lobby. Having made my wants in this particular direction known, in answer to an interrogative, Mr Ashley said: f “Yes, during my residence here I have be come well acquainted with the workings o » the ‘Third House,’ as it is termed, and eoulr tell you of numerous jobs which, like ‘Heathen Chinee,’ are peculiar. “You do not regard the lobby, as a body' vicious, do you S'" V “Not necessarily so; there are good anbad mon comprising' that body; yet ther have been times when it must be admitte that the combined power of the ‘Third House has overridden the will of the people. Tb., bad influence of the lobby,can be seen in tlZ 1 numerous blood-bills that are introduced “ r every session.” sh “But how can these be discovered?’’ “Easily enough, to the person who h'. ■ made the thing a study. I can detect thr* 1 at a glance.’’ vh “Tell me, to what bills do you refer?” “Well, take the annual gras bills, for stance. They are introduced for the purpe of bleeding the Washington Gas Light Co. pany. They usually result in an investig i ing committee which never amounts to ai c thing more than a draft upon the putPt treasury for the expenses of the in vest U tion. Another squeeze is the abattoir bit as they are called. These, of course, a fought by the butchers and market me The first attempt to force a bill of this c' serlption was in 1877, when a promine- ( Washington politician offered a fabulous su for the franchise.” 11l “Anything else in this line that you thim T of, Mr. Ashley?” f 1 “Yes, there's the job to reclaim the Potir mac flats; which, had it become a law, woul . have resulted in an enormous steal. Th work is now being done by the Governmen itself, and will rid the place of that malarir 1 atmosphere of which we hear so much out side the city.” 0 “During your residence here have you ex£ perienced the bad results of living in thi. climate?” —.—— ——b “Well, while I have not at all times en joyed goed be ilth, I am certain that the difculty which laid me up so long was not malarial. It was something that had troubled me for years. A shooflng, stinging pain that, at times attacked different parts of my bady ’ One day my rigbtarm and leg would torture' me with pain, there would be great redness, heat, anfl swelling of the parts; ant} perhaps the next day the left arm and leg! would be simi.arly affected. Then again it would locate in some particular part of my body and produce a tenderness which would] well nigh drive me frantic. There would be weeks at a time that 1 would bo afflicted with an intermitting kind of pain that would co.ue on every afternoon and leave me comparatively free from pain suffering the balance of the twenty-four hours. Then T would have terrible paroxysms of pain coming on at any time during the day or night, when I would bo obliged to lie upon my back for hours ar;d keep as motionless as possible. Every time I attempted to move a chilly sensation would pass over my body, or I would faint from hot flashes. I suffered from a spasmodic contraction of the muscles and a soreness of the back and bowels, and even my eyeballs became sore and distressed me greatly whenever I wiped my face. I became ill-tempered, peevish, fretful, initable, and desperately despondent.” “Of course you consulted the doctors regarding your difficulty?” “Consulted them? well I should say 1 did. Some told me I had neuralgia; others that I had inflammatory rheumatism, for which there was no cure; that I would be afflicted all my life, and that time alone would mitigate my sufferings.” “ But didn’t they try to relieve your miseries?” “ Yes, they vomited and pbysiced me, blistered and bled me, plastered and oiled me, sweat, steamed and everything but froze me, but without avail.” • “But how did you finally recover?” “1 had a friend living in Michigan who had been afflicted in a similar way aDd had beei' cured. He wrote me regarding his recovery ani advised me to try the remedy which cured blur I procured a bottle and commenced its use taking a tablespoonful after each meal anat bed time. 1 had used it about a weoH when 1 noticed a decrease of the soreness e,, the joints and a general feeling of relief, persevered in its use and finally got so'l could move around without limping, when r told my friends that it was Warner’s Safj Rheumatic Cure that had put me on my feet. “And do you regard your cure as pei(, manent?" “Certainly. I haven't been so well in year' as I am now, and although 1 have been But' jeeted to frequent and severe changes o* weather this winter, I have not felt the firs ' intimation of the return of my rheumatif trouble.” ~ , ' 4

“Do you object to toe publication of thia interview, Mr. Ashleyf* “Not at all, sir. I look aipon it as a duty I owe my fellow creatures to alleviate their sufferings so far as I am able, and any communication regarding my symptoms and cure that may be sent to me at 50 i Maine avenue will receive prompt and caretul attentten.’’ . —L ■— ' “Judging from vnnr recital. Mr. Ashley. there must be wonderful curative properties about this medicine ‘.‘lndeed, there is, sir, for no man suffered more nor longer than did! before this remedy gave me relief.” “To go back to the orignal subject, Mr. Ashley, I suppose you see the same familiar faces about the lobby session after session:” “No, not so much so as you might think. New faces are constantly seen and old ones disappear. The strain upon lobbyists Is neo-e-sarlly very great, and when you add tc this the demoralizing effect of late hours and intemperate habits and the fact that they are after found out in their steals, their pearance can eas'ly be accounted for.” “What proportion of these blood-bills are successful!” “A very small percentage, sir. Notwithstanding the power and influence of the lobby, but few of these vicious measures pass. Were they successful it would be a sad commentary upon Our system of government, and would virtually annlbi’ate one branch of it. Tbe great majority of them are either reported adverseliy or smothered in committee by the watchfulness and loyalty

of our Congressmen.”

IT WILL PH TOO, Or yaiur Friends, to Bend the tel I owing Account of a Cure of Stone in tlie Kidneys br the Use of Dr. David Kennedy’* Favorite Remedy (of Rondout, If. V.)—A Disease so Serious and Common should not be Trifled with. Plain Words are beat. Mr. Edward 8. Hicks, ot Pleasant Valley, Dutchess Co., N. Y., ha* suffered long from Stones in the Kidneys. He sought relief, of course. Who would not? What are time and money to health? Mr. Hick* consulted the beat physician* of bis village, and also oi Poughkeepsie—and none better can be found anywhere—bat, unhaj>- ’ plly, without a good result. A frieud in Rondout advised Mr. Hicks to go to Rondout and see Dr. David Kennedy about his trouble. This Mr. Hicks finally did. Dr. Kennedy saw at once what the suffering man's difficulty was, and that FAVORITE REMEDY was the medicine he needed. The Doctor prescribed' lit, and Mr. Hicks went home without much confidence in the power of FAVORITE REMEDY to do | him more good than other modlrihe* had done be- ■ fore. But hope clings to straws, and be thought there might be one chance out of many in his favor. He followed the directions, and was both surprised and , delighted to find himself presently improving. To- - day Mr. Hicks is a well man. Dr. Kennedy continnes to practice his profession, and performs all the minor and capital operations in surgery. Write and state your case.
