THE CURIOSITY SHOP.'

A OoatniTMty With France—War Bcgsst bat Kipped it the Bad. I The questitm has -been asked "Was war ever declared A"t ween the Cnlted States and France/" War was never actually declared, though various acts of hostility were done. Jay* treaty with Great Britain, signed in 1704 and ratified in 17U5, settled /arioos matters in a way France did not like. France thereupon issued various decrees against American commerce, which were hardly those of a friendly nation. In 1797 the relations between France and the United States were so threatening that President Adams called as extra session of congress for May 13. C. C. Pinckney, El bridge Gerry and John Marshall were sent to France to adjust all difficulties. The government refused to receive them, but intimated that money would smooth matters if the money didn't come war would. Then Pickering made the famous remark: "War be it then. Millie*:- for defense, not one cent for tribute.^ ^arationa for war were made by congress, and had we not begun fighting at oncw there might have been war. The United Suites frigate Constell&tion, Commodore Truxtou, took the French frigates L'lnsurgente and La Vengeance, and so startled the French that tbey made overtures for a renewal of negotiations, and in 1800 a treaty was made between the United States and Napoleon. So we never declared war with France, but came out victorious in a war that never was fought.

Freedom of the City.

The freedom of the city of London, conferred as an honor' upon individuals at the present day, is simply this: A small slip of parchment, inscribed with the names and titles of the person to whom It is to b* presented, which guarantees to the holder and his children after him forever the right to live aud trade within the city prescribed by St. Clement's in the West, Bishopgate in the east, Pentonvillo on the north and the shores of the Thames on the south, without having to pay a tax on the goods brought through the gates. It exempts him from naval or military service and tolls and duties throughout tbo United Kingdom. It insures to his, children tho care of the chamberlain, who, in case they ara left orphans, takes charge of their property and administers it in their interest until they arrive at years of maturity. The parchment bears the seal and signature of the lord mayor and chamberlain, and it is generally ornamented with ribbons aud illuminated. It is always inclosed iu a long thin ld box, aud is intended, of course, t,s an heirloom. "1 he Pldhwli-ii l»l*pufe.

The agitated fisheries dispute is: 1. Whether the United States have aright iu the British fisheries, independent of treaty provisions. 2. VV hat are the rightf of American fisher men under the convention of 181S and under the laws of navigation and trade? 3. The "headfnTHls" question, which is incidental to tho ot hit two questions. The British hold that the lino must be drawn from headland Ui hcn !Ia:i.1, three miles from shore. This intyrpi i' !"H would exclude American fishermen from the buys which indent the coast deeply and aro the resort of fish. The American* -say that throe miles fixmi sbore moans three nile« distant at every jioint, cotiM-ijueutly all bays more than six miles \vi,lt. at the mouth would be open to American fishermen.

Morgan Ohio, David Todd Pennsylvania, Andrew G. Curtin Rhode Island, William Hprague Vermont, Frederick Holbrook Virginia (W.i, Francis H. Pierpont Wisconsin, Alexander W. Randall.

Literary Men as flohemlatis^ The origin of tho application of the word "Bohemian" to literary men is this: In 1427 the first gypsies entered France they were Bohemians. They were not allowed to enter Paris, but roamed around the outside walls. Afterward literary men of low tastes were likened to the gypsies, and called Bohemians. Ju tho course of years the term was applied to literary men and artists who were not ot low tastes, but simply unconventional Perhaps another origin can be found in tbe fact that tliero was in London about 275 years ago a public bouscfcutlled "The Queen of Bohemia," named after tbe daughter of James I, which, If frequented by artistsand writers, might easily have given them the title of Bohemian*

Connecticut, Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, New Hamsphira, New Jersey, New York, Ohio. Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island. Utah. Vermont, Wisconsin and Wyoming. There is no United States holiday law, except provisions as to negotiable paper, hills of exchange, promissory notes, etc., and that tbe effect of July 4, Dec. 25 and Thanksgiving day shall be the same as Sunday, or the first day of the week.

There is no authority for writing •-Hott." before the Aamo of members of congrem The custom fa a perversion of the accepted English and American custom of speaking of members of a representative assembly a* "tbe honprable member for this place," or that place.

A Story In Rhyme About Wild Duoki and Their Haltito That Shows Greed and Theft Are Not Coufined to Human

Kind. •.

There is a bay of which we now wiD speak, Cfclled by the enrious name of Chesapeake, Where wild ducxs of two kinds live, move and quack, Tbe bald pate widgeon and the canvas back. Tbe widgeon lores the sappy herbs which grow Down at the bottom, fathoms deep below But yet be cannot summon up the pluck To dive for them himself—the coward duck! So he. with many a fluttering quack, pretends, The canvas backs ara bis especial friends. He never leaves tiwir side, the widgeon shyJust watch him! sud you'll know the reason why.

THK CANVAS BACK DUCK AITO THE WTOGJEON. Down dives tbe canvas back, with sousing flop. To bring the dainty morsel to the top The widgeon, meanwhile, watching at tbe place While pleasure mantles in his knavish face. lie has a mind a little trick to play On his dear friend in a business way And so he waits beside the whirly hole Sinde by the body of that honest soul. Who thercaiiouts has left the sunshine upper, That he may pick himself a bit of supper.

Alas for him I Just when his neb appears, And water gurgles in his eyee and ears. And, like a diver who has been below, ile'H scant of breath, and has to puff and blow, Just then the roguish widgeon marks his game, Aud steals tbe morsel without any shame, •.« Then scuttles off to eat it all alone, And never throws the canvas back a bone.

tiit»r«*tin^ Chapter on Fox Terrier*. Fifty years ago fox terriers were little known, except as attached to packs of fox tiound8. Tbey were used.to follow foxes when run to earth, and either drove them out, or, by their barking, showed whereabouts the fox lay, if it was decided to dig him out. Thus they obtained their uame. Iu a well bred dog the body should be short aud compact, with strong neck, and small head and pointed nose the logs slim but very strong, and the feet small and the markings, if any, placed evenly on the two sides of tbe bead or body. The ears should be thin and soft.

rox TERRIER.

Happily for the terriers, cropping meir nors bos quite gone out of fashion. It was useless and cruel, not only in tbe operation, but by depriving the ear of its natural covering it allowed rain or particles of earth to fall into it, and caused deafness. The ooat is usually soft and silky. Their keen nose enables them to follow animals by scent with ease, and when properly trained they can tell their master for a certainty whether tbe owner of a rabbit burrow or rat hole is at home or not, while their pluck in fighting with animals, such as the otter or fox, often much larger than themselves, is wonderful.

Ths Gams of Gran^Mafti. A pleasant game for rainy days is that of the Grand Mufti In this game one of the company sits in ft chair, and is called the Grand Mufti. He makes whatever grimace or motiou he pleases, such as putting his band on his heart, winking, sneezing, coughing, stretching out bis arm, smiting his forebead, eta. At each movement be says: "Thus says the Grand Mufti," or "So says tbe Grand Mufti." When he says, "Thus says the Grand Mufti," every one must make just such a motion as he das but when he says, "So says the Grand Mufti," every one must keep still A forfeit for a mistake is exacted.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

A Noted Physician's View* on Sanitary Matters—New Cure for Sea Sickness. Benjamin W. Richardson, M. D., the eminent English sanitarian, has said that it is tbe women on whom full sanitary light requires to fall. Health in she home is health everywhere elsewhere it has no abiding place. "I have been brought, indeed, by experience." said Dr. Richardson, "'to the conclusion that tbe whole future progress of the sanitary movement rests for permanent and executive support on the women of the country. When, as a physician, I enter a house where is a contagions disease, I am, of course, primarily impressed by the type of the disease and the age, strength and condition of the sick person. From the observations made on these points I form a judgment of the possible course and termination of the disease, and at one time I should have thought such observations sufficient. Now I know them to be but partially sufficient a glance at the appointments and arrangement and management of the bouse is now necessary to make perfect the judgment."

By this glance is detected what aid the physician may expect in keeping the sick in a condition most favorable for escape from death, and by this is also detected what are the chances that the affection will be confined .to one sufferer or distributed to many. As rule, to which there ore the rarest exceptions,the character of tho judgment hereupon is dependent upon the character of tbe presiding genius of home, or tbe woman who rules over that small domain.

The men of tbe house come and go, know little of the ins and outs of anything domestic, are guided by what they are told, and are practically of no assistance whatever. The women are conversant with every nook of the dwelling, from basement to roof, and on their knowledge, wisdom and skill the physician rests his hopes. How important, then, bow vital, that they should learn, as a part of their earliest duties, the choicest sanitary code.

A New Remedy for fioat'clciAM. Professor Watson Smith announces that in tbe new artificial alkaloid, autipyrine, discovered in 1883 by ICnorr, of Erlangen, a potent remedy for seasickness has been found. The source of this antipyrine is that also of the aniline colors—viz., aniline—and thus, strange to say, this medicament is manufactured in the works of a large German firm producing alkalies, acids and coal tar colors. Antipyrine may then be considered as a coal tar product. It is reported that E. Dupuy administered antipyrine during the last three days before embarking and the first three days of an ocean voyage, in doses of three grammes per day. He states that none of tbe persons thus treated suffered from seasickness during the voyage across the Atlantic ocean—a sufficiently severe test, certainly. Another authority states that antipyrine acts excellently as a remedy against seasickness. Iu most cases a dose of one and one-half grammes is sufficient, effect being manifested in about ten minutes. In other cases the dose must be repeated. M. Ossian-Bonnet never required to use more than three grammes, in two doses, in order to completely remove the evil within an hour. In some cases, which were very rare, when the sick person, in consequence of continued vomiting, could not take the remedy, a subcutaneous injection of one gramme of antipyrine proved sufficient to remove the seasickness.

Inexperienced Nurses,

pA physician comments thus upon the extraordinary fact that mothers very often select young, inexperienced and weakly -nurses to take care of their children: "People jpfrho owf diamondSiMihpnda, etc., lock, them up in strong boxes so the thief in tbe night will not run away with them. Are babies lees valuable, that they should bo exposed constantly to the thief of disease, who is in-^-ited to run away with the darlings left almost entirely in the chargjfe of nurses in capable morally, intellectually or physically 'to supervise the dawning childhood of our infants!"

^JUnport»lit Physiological Dlncowry. ^V. 8. Bryant, of Worcester, Mass., is /rted to have made a physical discovery which will alter the statement of text books of today. It has been held that valves in the portal vein are not found In human beings, the portal vein being that which conyeys the blood from the intestines to the liver. Dr. Bryant has found that in the portal vein of the greater number of infants of a few weeks old these valves do exist, but tbey disappear in the adult. As these valves were known to exist in some animals, there lies here a degree of corroboration of the theory of evolution.

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

How Fashionable Marriages Are Announced. The fashionable formula for the Snnonncs ment of weddings is engraved on note sheets, ani reads as follows: "Mr. and Mrs. Brown announce," or "beg to announce," "the marriage of their daughter, Sarah Elisabeth, to Mr. James Henry Jones. Tuesday, April twenty-fourth, 1888, Madison avenue. New ork."

RIDING IN 'MEXICO.

KJghting a Cigarette While Sitting oa a Backing Horse—Tho .Secret of It. The great feature of all Mexican riding is looseness of their seat. It is all done by balancc. And when I say "all"' it means a wonderful deal, I have seen a Mexican named Louis—to be sure he was accredited to be the best rider out there, and for my own part I cannot conceive that there can be a better in the world—-I have seen that man cross his legs over the horn of the big Mexican saddle, and, throwing the reins on the neck of the horse, calmly

roll

a cigarette

while the horse bucked up a' a down with Him. I know it is asking a grr t« VU to expect credence for such a feat ilus, but yet, when v. consider the pitch of perfection roached by circus riders among our own countrymen, tb" very much higher degree of excellence atfc. -d by one remarkable man out of a nation whose members we may also say are born on horseback, is not so altogether beyond the prospect of belief—though there is of course an enormous difference between riding the trained things in a circus and tbe mustangs caught wild upon the praries. Tho Mexican saddle, with its great stirrups and the horn on which the lasso hangs, gives, of course, very many good points d'appui but the performances of these Mexicans on bare back are wonderful enough. You see a herd of wild horses driven through the narrow pass of the corral. Your Mexican, with a hair rope in his hand, will drop from the beam above upon the baeb of the horse it is wished to reclaim to domestic uses.

In an instant ho is away, snorting, bellowing, positively shrieking with terror, in the midst of the thundering stampede of his fellows, Avho are scarco less terrified than himself. He canuot buck, whilo the herd presses closely upon him. The Mexican leans forward \vilh the rope iu both hand •, passes it over tbe horse's head into the wide open mouth, and forces it behind his teeth. Then ho takes a turn with it under the iower jaw, aud tbere he has him bitted and bridled. After a little over half an hour he comes back with bim—broken not "so that a child could ride him," but so that a Mexican can. Of course they aro small horses. I cannot say how the Mexicans would fare with one of thoso big Australian buckers. They maintain, however, that this loose seat of theirs does not irritate a horse in the way a grip with tho knees does and tlii31 fully believe. Further than that, I fancy the solution of tho mystery about those horses which will go quietly enough with a lady, though a man can hardly ride them, is to be sought rather in tbo ipethod of the lady's ssat than, as is commonly thought, in tho superior delicacy of her fair hands.—Murray's Magazine.

*1 Effects of the Climate. Tradition tells of a young English recruit who was sent out to garrison duty in Ceylon soon after hisv enlistment, and beheld with great amazement (having never seen a colored man before) tho first native who boarded tho transport when she cost anchor iu Colombo harbor. "Who's^that black chap, vBillf' asked hoof a comrade. "What! don't you know him againT answered the other, who was a bit of a wag "why, that's our old chum, Harry Thompson, that you used to know iu tho old country. He's been out hero five years, you know, and tho sun's toasted him black." "The sun's toasted him blackP' echoed the greenhorn, staring in open mouthed horror at tho supposed transformation: "Do you mean to say that I'll be like that when I've been here five years?" "Of course you will, Dick," replied his tormentor, with heartless cheerfulness, "and so'll I too. and so'll all of us. Look at that chap,'1 (pointing to a passing Chinese boatman,) "he's only yeUow you see, because he hasn't got more than half toasted yet but in another year or two he'll be as block as your boots."—David Ker in New York Times.

A Substantial Tidy.

Flimsy white chair tidies, that are alwayj becoming unfastened and getting torn, to the mortification of visitors, havo at length succumbed to tbo storm of abuse and are now being discarded by sensible housekeeper*. A substitute for them, that is at once a protection for handsome furniture and an ornament, can be made of two broad bonds of plush, say deep ruby color, with a puffed and gathered band of rich satin (marigold shade) inserted between and bordered with heavy lace. This can be fastened to the back of a chair, and as it Is substantial it will remain secure.—Woman.
