THE WORLD’S FAIR.
A Wonderful Structure—The MexiiiL can Exhibit —A Remarkable Painting:. THE TREASURY MODEL. There is no financial stringency in the rotunda of the Administration ouilding, for there stands the Treasury building literally made of money. It is composed of souvenir coins and is an exact reproduction of the Treasury building at Washington. Several days ago a stranger, evidently from Colorado, stopped, smiled, rubbed his hands, and gleefully remarked: “That’s it! That’s it! Free silver it is! Put it up everywhere.* Build houses out of it. Pave streets with it. Scatter it around everywhere. Let’s have free silver. Just to remember this visit I guess I’ll take one of them coins.” And the man was handed a souvenir half-dollar, which is worth twice its face in value. He started to walk away, when the young lady who was selling the coins remarked that he owed her 11. “Eh!’ ; exclaimed the gentleman from Colorado. “A dollar for this here! Well—um —er —ah—” And he put his hand in his pocket and drew forth a dpllar bill and handed it to the young lady without remarking any further about silver. The structure is an attractive affair and draws admiring crowds. It is really an exhibit, the object being to advertise more extensively the souvenir coins the Exposition has for sale. The building was designed by Architect W. B. Mundle, and is 18 feet long, 11} feet wide and 43 inches high, and is covered with bright, shining, Columbian half-dol-lars. THE MEXICAN EXHIBIT. No stronger contrast is offered by the whole Fair than that which Mex-

ice presents. Here, in forestry, is displayed the wealth of Mexican opportunity, the field of a great commercial future. A hundred feet distant, in ethnology, are the evidences of the civilization which was Mexico’s when the Spaniards came. To the American the beginning of all was the coming of Columbus. To the Mexican that event was only the close of an epoch. Four reconstructions of parts of the City of Mexico are among the most notable things in the collection. One of these nearly 10 feet square, is the great temple of Huizilnpochtli, as it stood when Cortes came. It is true the priests of the people who worshiped in that temple offered human sacrifices, cutting off heads on a great sacrificial stone, and letting the blood run through a little gutter hewn in the surface. But the immense temple and its finish show that these people had ideas about architecture.
In another representation one looks down upon the entry of Cortes into the city. There are the buildings, of imposing proportions, the wide, paved avenue, the Spanish army marching in, with Cortes at the head, and the native army drawn up with military precision to receive with formal honor the guests whose real character and purpose had not then been revealed. It is a scene and a pageant which would do credit to the close of the nineteenth century, and yet America had been “discovered” only a few years before.
The capture of Cuauhtemec, when the Spaniards had thrown off all disguise, and had begun the subjugation by sword, comes next. Then fell the empire. There is a fourth scene, and it represents the captured Cuauhtemec, the last of the native Emperors, asking Cortes |o put an end to him with the dagger, rather than let him live a prisoner. The pathetic story is told without words, in the midst of all the glorification of “The Discovery of America." A REMARKABLE PAINTING. In the Manufacture’s building is a painting. It cannot be spoken of too often. It is in “Nuremberg,” on the lagoon side of the building, about half way down from the clock tower and the north end of the building. The painting covers one full end of the section, and to of the city of Nuremberg, and is said to represent the city as it was in the fifteenth century. It is, however, an exact reproduction of the old place as it is to-day, with the exception of the old-time costumes. It shows a market place. The grim, gray old stone walls and buildings are brightened up by carts of flowers and vegetables and gay skirts and tunics in the foreground. It is painted by William Ritter. It seems as if the artist must have studied every old tower on the feudal walls and every gateway. Nuremberg is one of the few cities of Europe that has retained almost in its entirety the mediaeval appearance. The streets are narrow and **£.,«■»,■ -r- 7 , i - .....
decidedly crooked,, and ydt every' where is that substantial look that means once and for all time. As you walk towards the picture it seems as if the streets lengthen out and new buildings came in sight. It is a wonderful picture in atmospheric effect, and with all due respect to the exhibitors from Nuremberg who have it in their section, it

is a great pity it is not out somewhere in more space. COMFORT AT THE FAIR. Cincinnati Tribune. Nothing but praise can be spoken of the attention to public comfort. Entrance gates are everywhere to be found, so that nobody is jostled or crowded in entering or leaving the grounds. Delicious, cool, clear water, piped more than a hundred miles from the vicinity of Waukesha, Wis., is to be had in all parts of the grounds by the simple magic of dropping a penny in the slot and lifting the sparkling liquid to the lips. Fountains of free water are also abundant, but they are less palatable than the penny fountains. Seats are to be found in all parts of the ground for weary visitors, Diversions are there in the form of steam' and electric launches and gondolas that constantly traverse the lagoon,
which winds in and out among the great buildings. You are made acquainted with all these conveniences not by having your ears assailed by shouting boys, but through the medium of the eye. The World’s Fair is thoroughly dignified in all its behavior. Its visitors are its guests, and in the hospitable spirit in which other guests are treated they are made to feel that the entire Fair is theirs while they are within the grounds. There is no official machinery visible save

PERSIANS FROM THE BOWERY. _ Henry Watterson, The Midway Plaisance has no right to be connected in any way with such a wonderful show as the World’s Fair. There is nothing of interest there to me’eideept the types of people. The so-called shows are frauds and “fakes.” Those that are advertised as being obscene and vulgar, are weak and vapid. There is nothing terrible about them at all, and the mysterious whispered comments upon their broadness are unnecessary. There is no vulgi rity about them. They are insipid. One woman, who pdbes as a Persian, was asked by a friend of mine what she was doing. No answer was expected as we didn't suppose a Persian could understand English. To our surprise, she looked at us, and in good Bowery patios saidr “I am knitting. What do you suppose lam doing?” Then with a downward, hocizonal potion of her hand she inquired if lye saw.

The New Bread As endorsed and recommended by the New-York Health Anthnritkrr Royal Un fermented Bread is peptic, palatable, most healthful, and may be eaten warm and fresh without discomfort even by those of delicate digestion, which is not true of bread made in any other way. To make One Loaf of Royal Unfermented Bread: i quart flour, i teaspoonful salt, half a teaspoonful sugar, heaping teaspoonfuls Royal Baking Powder,* cold boiled potato about the size of large hen’s egg, and water. Sift together thoroughly flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder; rub in the potato; add sufficient water to mix smoothly and rapidly into a stiffbatter, about as soft as for pound-cake; about a pint of water to a quart of flour will be required—more or less, according to the brand and quality of the flour used. Do not make a stiff dough, like yeast bread. Pour the batter into a greased pan, 4% by 8 inches, and 4 inches deep, filling about half full. The loaf will rise to fill the pan when baked. Bake in very hot oven 45 minutes, placing paper over first 15 minutes' baking, to prevent crusting too soon on top. Bake immediately after mixing. Do not mix with milk. * Perfect success can be had only with the Royal Baking Powder, because it is the only powder in which the ingredients arc prepared so as to give that continuous action necessary to raise the larger bread loaf. The best baking powder made is, as shown by analysis, the “Royal.” Its leavening strength has been found superior to other baking powders, and, as far as I know, it is the only powder which will raise large bread perfectly - Cyrus Edson, M.

OUT OF THE ORDINARY.
JudaS sold his Master for thirty pieces of silver; that is thirty Roman pennies, about 14.12}. ' One Roman penny was a good day’s wages for an agricultural laborer. A number of Australian lady bugs were recently shipped to California on ice. They were kept in cold storage on shipboard for thirty days, and arrived well and kicking. They are to be used for destroying insects that prey upon orange trees.

On the summit of Ben Lomond may be seen the smallest tree that grows in Great Britain. It is known as the dwarf willow, and is, when mature, only about two inches in height. It is estimated that of the five million inhabitants,in London over one million are poor—living on less than £1 a week for each family—while Over 300,000 are in chronic poverty. The first Sabbath school was instituted in 1787. There are now in the United States 108,939 Sabbath schools, with 8,049,000 scholars. The world has 20,078,595 Sabbath school scholars.
A mining company at Ishpeming, Mich., has undertaken to empty Lake Angeline, covering 160 acres and seventy feet deep in the middle. ' Very valuable deposits of iron ore lie at the bottom of the lake. =—- The Hebrews had no coins of their own until the days of the Maccabees, who issued shekels and half shekels, with the inscriptions “Jerusalem, the Holy,” “Simon r Prince of Israel.” These bear ho images. Impaling was used as a punishment in Turkey up to 1855. The last men impaled were four Arab Shieks, who had rebelled. They were impaled at the four corners of the Bagdad bridge. One of them lived nine days. The charter of the United States Bank was limited to twenty years; a new bank was chartered in 1816 with a capital of 135.000,000; it was this bank from which Jackson removed the Government deposits in 1833. The custom of Chinese wearing pigtails is not very ancient. It dates from 1627, when the Manchus, who then commenced their conquest of the Celestial Empire, enforced this fashion of doing the hair as a sign of degredation. The average queue is four feet long.
Household Hints.
One pound of sulphate of zinc dissolved in two pailfuls of warm water and thrown into the offensive cesspool will deoderize it. A little kerosene oil rubbed briskly over the spots on dark clothing will brighten the garments and reamove the stains. The kerosene will evaporate quickly and leave no stain. Rice water is recommended in which to wash challies. Boil one pound of rice in five quarts of water. Cool it to the tepid point, then put in the goods and wash well, using tha rice as soap. Pour off the water, leaving the rice sediment. Rub the challie well in this, rinsing in the poured off water. Use no other rinsing water, but hang the materials to dry direct from the rice water. By adding whisky to any quantity of common glue you will have an article that is always ready for use, says an English trade paper. Put both Id a bottle, cork ft tight and put it by * for three or four days, when it will be fit for use without the application of heat. Glue thus prepared will keep for years and it is at all times fit for use, except in very cold weather, when it should first be set ip warm water.
A Legal Transaction.
Detroit Free Pres*. A young man who probably belonged to the class known as “hired men” among farmers, called* upon a Detroit lawyer the other day and bargained for “advice” for three dollars. Then he threw down three silver dollars and said: “Sposen I put 13 in a savings bank?” “Well?” “Then I take a pen and put 000 after the Agger 8? “Well?” “Would it be agin the law?” “Not unless you tried to draw three thousand dollars. ” “But I’m not going to try to. I probably shan’t even ask for the three dollars.” “What’s the object?" “Girl out my way. I love her. She partly recips. She’d recip altogether if she thought I had lots of sugar.” * “And you’ll show her the bank book?” “I will.” “But after your marriage, what then? How’ll you ever explain?” “Easy as grease. Just tell her that the bank has busted, and we must live for each other alone. Law can’t tech me, eh?” “No.” “Good day! Got the $3 in the bank now, and here goes to nail the ciphers! Mary Jane, thou art my own sweet whippoorwill, and I’ll Det a penful of hogs agin an ox yoke thou art!”
Well Seasoned.
Hamer's Bazar. ■ “Isn’t it queer,” said Wagg, “how long it takes some of those comic papers to get things into print? One of last week’s papers had a joke in that I sent them five years ago.” “That's nothing," returned Cynicus. “One of them had a joke in week before last that Diogenes got off.” A new, soft paint brush is a good thing to dust carved furniture with, as the bristles penetrate the crevices.
