••Cigars and f^garcMes arc cosmopolitan. bat a pip© represents a race." No one can donbt it who watcbe* a German smoke. Bis selection of a pipe is no small matter He has gone through all tbc gradations in the art of sraoU in# and it i* an art ft) Germany—and gets to his pipe aboul'the age of forty. It becomes the comfort tit the middle affo and the darling *f the old, His fondled stroked and praised in no unstinted

It is the inseparable companion the hearthstone, and neither house, beer nr story paper can dethrone itC

One can always tell the particular bent of a man's mind says the Chicago Time*, by his style of pipe. The picture on the bowl is usually an epitome of the smoker'* yonth- Should it be the bead of the reigning emperor be sure that patriotism Is the ruling passion. And if it bears a picture of a wooded mountain side, skirted by a broad river, surmounted by a. high tower, adorned with the rains of a feudal castle, and perhaps the inscription: "Alt Heidelberg du Feine," the smoker ia-gallant as well patriotic, recognizes and enjoys lift' w'hen he sees it. So does he who select* tbc girl with the wine glass and the Inscription: "Wer Llebt Nicht Weib. Wein andOeasang?"

The memory of his youthful pleasure comes back with the sight of his pipe. His first experience has been with cigar tips. As a boy he has helped to strip off the ends of Herr Papa's cigars and place them carefully in the little leather case that was always fonnd in the paternal pocket. Later on he has watched the big pipe send forth clouds of tobacco smoke from its big bowl and longed for tho day when a bo* of little dry yellow cigars would be beside his plate. That day ho would bo eighteen—he would begin to be a man. What joy!

Of course with the German boy tho flrst smoke is a family affair, and if not as spicy as the stolen smokes of tho American youtfi It Is robbed of its sickening effect by Herr i'apa's watchful care. The cigar is light as straw, clean and fragrant, harmless a stick ot candy

During the first years of his experience the German young man smokes rather expensively. Two-cent cigars are his limit, and this is considered pretty high life in Germany, where it is thought disloyal for an ordinary citizen to allow his time or cigar bill to run higher than a statesman's. It is said that Bismarck keeps within the bounds of m.x dollars for his.

Those two-cent cigars are infinitely better than our high-priced ones, inasmuch as a tobacconist will not for any consideration allow a cigar to leave his store till It shall have been seasoned at least three or four months. Consequently tho German youth may puff his iS&.ntifi&fif smoke in the air all day long vHtlthout injury to Jjls heart or head or qualms of conscience about his nervous apparatus

Whon the young German becomes a university freshman ho is apt to ratao tho price of ids cigars to a cent extra. Once in a day he takes a big curved plpo with the picture of a scantily clothed German beauty on tho porcelain bowl and tries a few puffs—this not frequently The plpo Is oftener found on the wall tn these days. In the days whon students wore top boots and swords and fought pitched battles in tho streets for a new fatherland or students' rights tho great pipes were trademarks of active university men. Tho itctfve freshman succumbs to the seduction of the two and ono-lialf cent cigar now.

About the second freshman term, however, tho student begins to cut down his expenses, his tobacco bills Included. A quarter of a cent at a time ho grades down till at his fourth term ho arrives at the celebrated "Heidelberg five-pfennig cigar"—one cent of American currency—yet the five-pfennig cigar is far from bad. It is about half as long as a man's middle finger, round and very thick in the middle. It costs the dealer about eighty cents per one hundred. The Heidelberg dealer sells nothing else: he caters only to students. An American would have a bad quarter of an hour unless provided with his favorite weed.

The student becomes prosperous after having been graduated he takes again to two and one-half cent cigars, and smokes them tdl he reaches the age of forty or fur five, when he begins his pipe-smoking career

To understand how important the art of smoking is and what a large part it piny* in the nation's life, one has but to look at the paraphernalia of a German wnoker. Kvorv mve carries cigar case, A cigar clipper, a match safe and a ifttle leather I vox for the cigar tips* The cigar ease is indispensable, twecanse the cigar* are so dry they would crack to pieces if carried loosely in the pocket. For the same reason the clipper wanted Then the smoker wants to keep the tlp^ They are collected by •oeiety organised for the purpose In each province and are sold back to the manufacturer for the benefit of charitable institutions. Then the match saie la oeee«»«u?. since German etiquette forbids carrying anything knifes money, matche* uncovered tn the pocket.

No wonder he resent* any attempt at taxation of tobaettk A whole group of Industries are bound up with the enjoyment of hi* smoke, whether from a two and one-half cent cigar or the WeSeh•eibolx stem that he holds dear a. the wedding ring.

MILITARY RULE lEUROPE. War Is Coasfclerwd and Kv«a Probable at .Vfly Moment.

European civilization to-d&jr is based on the Idea not only an itnmi*ncnt possibility but a probability,-and a 'great class Jn every country has been trainee to look upon bioodshedding as its proper vocation.

The great prizes are reserved forsolr diers: honoris* fame, position and the' monarch's favor to go to the sons of Mara. The military budget exceeds— many times over docs it exceed—the appropriations for public instruction. The salary of a colonel is earned by but fetv professors, writes Wi E. Thayer, in the Forum. Tlie cost of the powder and shot wasted in Europe between any dawn and dosk.woyld probably pay the running expenses of all her public hospitals. In each government, whether it be constitutional or autocratic, the army may with truth be said.to direct legislation, for the legislatures willingly or unwillingly vote the appropriations demanded by the war department. Even if a legislature dares to question or protest it is qnickly frightened into acquiescing by an alarming report from the minister for war. Thus the military class controls government and has laws passed to suit itself and prevents all attempts to 'cut down or to abolish its powers. It intimidates the state not less really, though less openly, than the pretorian guard intimidated old Rome! Kings and ministers do indeed assure the public that they chiefly endeavor and desire to preserve peace, but in the next breath they call for larger funds and more recruits. Kaisers meet and kiss each other on both cheeks they extol the sweetness of brotherly love they attend each other's grand maneuvers and then they Jncrease the garrisons along their respective frontiers. A strange method this for testifying to their peaceable intentions!

CATFISH THEIR ONLY FOOD. Negroea of Mavantiah Catch I.o«ds of Them.

The city of Savannah, Ga., is advantageously situated on the river of tho same name, advantageously for some things not set down in geographies or guide books. For instance, the dock laborers there are indulging themselves in tho expensive luxury of a strike and here is where occurs the application of the advantages overlooked.

The Savannah river swarms with catfish. Tho strikers are nearly all darkies. The "wenches" ask no better enjoyment than to sit on tho banks of the stream and catch these catfish, and tho "bucks" esteem catfish nearly as highly as they do watermelon. So it happens that this combination of the river, the. colored laborers, the colored women, tho catfish and the strike threaten to make the shipping business of Savannah experience a very bad time. The darkies are as obstinate as they can well be they can live at very little expense—thanks to the advantages above noted—and they will stand a long tussle before they knuckle. All of which is very instructive, as it demonstrates again that no man is ab solutely helpless until ho is fully di voreed from natural opportunities. Certainly there is better food than catfish—but on tho other hand catfish is better than no food at all.

HISTORIC MONTREAL, T»

Th« Mother of Two Cities—Th® lltrth placo of 1'nmoiM M*n. Montreal is, historically speaking, the mother of cities. Hero will bo marked tho birthplace of Bienville, tho founder of New Orleans, and tho homes of La Salle, of Duluth and of La Mothc Cadillac, founder of Detroit. Hero will be shown the eyrie of Mackenzie, discoverer of the Mackenzie river and flrst Buropcan to cross the Rocky mountains, Dollanl lane will have its glorious legend mado plain upon it Tho aneienl town walls will be made easy to follow. The Reeollel gate, where Oen. Hull and his army were brought in -prisoners, and the Quebec gate, where the same was dono with Ethan Allen, will receive tablets.

The-position of the armies at the time of capitulation, says the Toronto Week, will not be forgotten. Neither will a variety of strange traditions, miraculous and horrible—such as the Veronica-like legend of the Porcie Maistre, whose head was cut off by Iroquois, but imprinted its image upon a handkerchief and thereby haunted and addressed them until the conversion of his murderer.

CZAR NICHOLAS OF RUSSIA. T1ii Cruel Nntle Retitw of tils SoUtl«n Which Hp Held.

Emperor Nicholas sent an equerry to Siberia for life for having mislaid a letter from the king of Prussia, says a writer in the Philadelphia Times. He made four thousand soldiers take off every stitch of clothing and stand naked before him aijnjdy because there was a button or two missing to a uniform— and it mu:-t be remembered that this nude review look place on a day when the cold was so intense that the least exposure meant death to an ordinary European—and as for having men sad women flogged to death, that was a common form of amusement of his imperial majesty.

Even for a comparatively trivial offense in Russia, such as intoxication, be would order the delinquent to be "passed by the ranks.'" which meant that every soldier in the regiments provkicd with a stick on purpose, gave a "blow on the hack of the culprit as he was slowly dragged down the line. A fatal flogging, when we consider that regiments in those days were composed of four thousand men. Nicholas hhntfelf never drank or

VALUABLE PARISIAN RUBBISH, What Gceomes ot the Waste of th» Great a Preoch Capital.

A curious series of statistics estab^ lishes the value of the refuse of the Paris streets. The figures seem incredible, and show that the ragpickers discharge a duty of primary importance, says the Pall Mall Gazette. Working at night, busy under the gaslights with hook and panier, the value of what they ^collect each day is estimated at two thOTsa^ .founds sterling.

Assuredly one-half the world does not know how the other half lives. Of course, the conditions of Paris life are exceptional Population is very close: the tall houses are crammed with inhabitants there are no gardens, as with xis—there are but the houses and the streets.

The Parisians have a way of emptying all kinds of lumber and refuse into the streets, and then the ragpickers gather in their harvest. A use is found for everything and metamorphosis never ceases. All the details are interesting, though some are rather disr turbing.

Rags* of course, go to make paper broken glass is pounded and serves as the coating for sand or emery paper bones, after the process of cleaning and cutting down, serve to make nail brushes, tooth brushes and fancy buttons little wisps of women's hair are carefully unraveled and do duty for false hair by and by. Men's hair collected outside the barbers* serves as filters through which sirups are strained bits of sponge are cut up and used for spirit lamps bits of bread, if dirty, are toasted and grated and sold to the restaurants for spreading on hams and cutlets. Sometimes they are carbpnized and made into tooth powder. Sardine boxes aro cut up into tin soldiers or into sockets for candlesticks. A silk hat has a whole chapter of adventures in store for it.

All this work employs a regiment of ragpickers, numbering close on to twenty thousand, and each earning twenty penco to half a crown a day.

TALES OF THE GOAT. XJttle Johnny Something? to Say About the Adventure* of One of Them.

One time there was a young gote wich felt butty, and there was a ole ram wich lay in the road, half a sleep, a chune his cud,isays "Little Johnny," in the San Francisco Examiner. The gote he had been shet up in a paster ol his life, an had never saw a ram, an he sed to his sister, the gote did: "You jest stan stil and see me wliipe that freek off the face of the erth."

So the gote he went up before the ram an stompt his feet an shukc his lied real fritofie. but the ram he didn't git up, but only jest kep a chune his cud and wotchcd out between his lashes. Bime bj' the gote ho backed of an toko a run, and then arose tip in the air an cum down with his lied on the ram's hed, wack! The gote's head was busted, but tho ole ram he never wank his cy. Then the ole ram he smiled with his mowth, and sed to the buttergotcs sister: "Pears to me, miss, that kangaroo of yourn is mity careless where he lites, he come gum dasted near makin me swollcr my cud."

HOW HE R|AD PRAYER^ A Good Story nt the Kxpcnae of Prlnee George, of Wale*.

A good story is current in London, says the New York Recorder, concerning Prince George, of Wales, who was recently in command of tho British cruiser Thrush, belonging to the north Atlantic squadron. It was tho prince's duty as commander of the vessel to read prayers to the assembled crew every Sunday morning, his secretary reading the lessons.

One day a brother officer ventured to suggest at the messtable that the captain would do well to study the prayers a little more. "Why, I read 'cm every Sttudayl" was the prince's astonished reply. "Yes, sir but yon do not read them quite correctly," answered the officer. "1 don't!" exclaimed the prince. "Not qnite, sir. You invariably say: •We have done those things which we ought to have done, and we have left undone those things which we ought not to have done/ Of course, it is very flattering to us all and the ship's company, but—"

Tho speaker got no further, for his remarks were drowned in a roar of laughter led by the prince himself.

THE MUTUAL FRIEND.

A Great Factor In the Love Makhxjt'ax Sooth Americsi. .. All the love making in South America, must be carried on through a third person. If a youth desires to many he does not speak of it to the girl whom be wishes for a wife, but to his own father., The latter, if he approves, goes to the! father of the young lady and the two discuss the matter together. Each tells the other what he will do for the young folks, and between them a contract is! drawn up respecting settlements and all such things.

The intending bridegroom is not permitted to see his fiancee for a moment before the wedding. As soon as that event has taken place there is a wed-ding-breakfast, and, usnaUy without the formality of a preliminary tour, the couple settle down to living, either in an establishment of their own or more often in the house of the parents of the bride or the groom.

One drawback about marriage in South America, says the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, is that in taking a girl to wife it is apt to be considered a matter of course that the young man marries her whole family also. He has no occasion for surprise or disgruntlement if. together with his bride, fifteen or twenty people tome to share his household and domestic comforts, including all her available relatives and their servants.

These Latins, area very clannish race, and a father is apt to be willing to adopt a raft of sisters and cousins and aunts, not to mention a mother-in-law, rather than have his son or daughter leave the family roof. It is due to the strength of family attachment among them that hotels in South America are only fror strangers from afar the natives always find hospitable entertainment among the kindred.

ANTS AS ARCHITECTS. SarprUlng Intelligence Displayed by the Insect*.

All sorts of wonderful stories are told of the works of ants and especially of their engineering powers. It is of course within the knowledge of the most casual observers, says the Brooklyn Eagle, that the ant is a most surprising insect in point of what we call intelligence, and its simpler feats are amusing to all. One of the most recent incidents wo have seen related of the ant's power in tho way of engineering, planning and building is that which is credited to a Glasgow source... A pastry cook in that city found his shop invaded by .a colony of ants, who feasted nightly on tho delicacies deposited on a certain shelf. After cudgeling his brain for some time in order to discover a plan for stopping tho depredations of the active insects he resolved to lay a streak of molasses around the tray containing the coveted food. In due time tho ants came.forth in their hundreds, and were led toward the feast by their chief. On reaching the line scouts were then sent out to survey, and eventually the w£rd of command was passed round, and Instantly the main body of tho ants made for a part of the wall whero tho plaster had been broken by a nail. Hero each snatched up a tiny piece of mortar and returned to tho spot indicated, where their burdens were deposited upon the molasses. By this means and after an infinite amourlt of labor '.a bridge was formed, and the triumphant anpy marched forward to partake of the fruits of victory, the baker meanwhile standing by filled with wonder.

IMPROVISING A DRESS SUIT. An American's Ezperiecoe In a London Theater. "About eight years ago," said an American traveler, "I was in London, Eng. One day I bought a stall to see Pattl at the Royal. A stall corresponds to our boxes. Whpn SYQnjag came I took the ladies abound and walked in at the door. But I did not get far. 'You cannot comc in here,' said the doorkeeper. 'Why not?' I asked, in surprise 'here are my seat tickets.' 'Well, you cannot enter,'he replied, decisively 'your coat is a frock, and nothing but dress suits are allowed.' "1 expostulated. I told him that my hotel was along way off and that the ladies would be greatly disappointed. I was an American and did not know the rule of the theater. "Finally he told me to go into the dressing-room, where the attendants might be able to fix me out all right. "I went, expecting to pay two or three crowns for the loan of a coat. The fellow looked at me a second, whipped a pin from his lapel and pinned my coattails back, and I found myself in evening dress! "I gave the man half a crown."

Ready-Made Clothe*.

In spite of the marked improvement in the method of cutting ready-made clothes, men above six feet in height •till find it exceedingly difficult to be fitted in made-up garments. There are plenty of coats and trousers for men with abnormal abdomens, but very few ooats and trousers for men with tmtamally long legs and arms. The shirtmakers pay no heed to any measurement save that of the neck, and the sixfooter whose neck measurement is below sixteen inches finds the sleeves ot the ready-made shirt nearly half way to his elbows. Shoemakers do better. A man wearing a shoe anywhere below: eleven may be fitted at almost any price. The cheapest shoes, though rmK ning as high as twelve, are nearly alt too broad for slender feet.

"Say, ma,'5 said Tommy,* "aren't we go ing to have a Christmas tree this year?" "No. Tommy," answered his mother, "1 haven't time to attend to it this year, and your father is so busy that ho will not have time to llx it up either."

Tommy was silent for some time, then he went over and sat on a footstool besidt his mother, who was doing some fancy needlework. "Say, ma," said Tommy meekly, after a long pause. Seeing that her son was not inclined to finish the sentence she said kindly: "Well, Tommy?"

He rested his elbow on her lap and leaning his head on his hand he watched hei fingers working dexterously for a few seconds, then he continued slowly: "Say, ma, you, told me I mus'n't fight, didn't you?" "I certainly did,.Tommy." "Weil, say, ma,.you know Jimmy Jones, what lives across-the street?" "Yes." "Well, I was talking With him yeste'day and he said't his mother was nicer'n mine, an I sed't she-wasn't, and then we got to fightin, an say, ma, you won't be mad if 1 licked him, will you? An I told him't my mother was the nicest looking lady in the street, an don't you forget it, an I said 't mother wa&aft old and wrinkled like his mother was, an he said'this mother was more generous'n mine, an't she was goin# to fix him up a nice Christmas tree, an then I couldnt help.it, ma, an I licked h.ai some more, and just then a big policeman came along an said't he'd run us both in if we didn't stop fighting, an"

But his mother had got up from het chair by this time. She called Bridget aud told her to go to the grocery store and order a nice Christmas tree—the nicest one they had.—New York Tribune.
