Extraordinary Kxpnrience of aa Aesthetic Uousekeeper. She was a graduate of Girton College, England, and when she married Julias Aaxustus Smythe was very much like another young lady who has been embalmed in song: Miss Pallas .\ndora Von Blnrky, Who didn't know chicken from tarkey, iUgb Spauisk and Ureek she could dusatly speak. I But uer knowledge of poultry wan moxky. ] However, she told Julias Autiustas that she was a good housekeeper because her mother and grandtnother were, aad it ran ' in the family. So, on the strength of this, he went into housekeeping. She bought a sweet little morov;cocovered note book, and carried a i;oid pencil, wore an ssihetio morning costume and appeared like a vision of delight before the magnates ot the cleaver at the Central Market. j Oh, the dear, sweet, cannini; little pigs," she exclaimed, 3toppini> at an alder- manic stand where several little roasters were on exhibition those. How much are they a pair " A sovereign for two," was the realistic . aaswer. j â- - Isn't that rather high ? I gaess I'll take { a yard of beefsteak instead, and some â€" Oh, [ yes â€" some sweetbreads. Julius said ho , wanted some ; nice fresh ones, please, wish plenty of raisins in them." Then she stepped over to the poultry stall. " Have yoa any chickens ? " she asked of the woman in attendance. •' Ueapjof them." was the reply. " How much do they cost a heap ?" she asked in a rather faint voice. " Two shillings apiece mem." •' Well, send up a piece to my residence," and she turned to the next stall and picked up some little packages that looked very nice. " What is this sweet stufT that smells so lovely ? " she asked of a redheaded boy behind the table. " Limburger, Mi^s, and it's just splendid; tastes ever so much better tbau it smells â€" have one?" She took one, and then asked the boy where they sold their quail on toast. " Ain't any in the market." answered the young reprobate. " Mother's gone after a load, though, and we II send you some as soon as they're in." •' What are these lovely navy-blue berrirs'?" she inquired. "They will just match tny china. You may send me a bushel." Finally she decided to try a quart, which she carried herself in the artistic basket. e '• Have you any hen frait .' ' she asked S'A'eetly »f au old fellow lu a white apron. He scratched bis ear with a pencil for a moment. " Mebbe you moan eggs. "he vol- unteered. These she also took charije of, as she wanted to make an omelet for Jalius Aogustus. but she never did : or rather when she cot home the omelet was ::iadd within a liberal admixture of blackberries, and the front ot her u.-sthetu: dress was rained. Added to this was an odor which sent Julius into spasms and frightened the cat to death. The Limburger bad melted. The Girton girl did justice to the high Spanish and Greek in the explanatien that followed, and the nest day they burned the morocco notebook and went to boarding. â€" I.ontin Snci. His lti»> OIVUiEli DUAGKeE. Wily Chamberlain Llns**^ After slon Ha« FaUed. When Joseph Chamberlain first came to Washington it was thought his social cam- paign would amount to more than his diplo- matic mission. The fisheries negotiations I have practically failed, but tne Britisher s I admiration for the daughter of a Cabinet I officer is. one of the current rumors. Mr. Chamberlain appears to be " havici: a very good time," and is not in any hurry toclose the negotiations. Ha is either the guest or the hcst at a dinner nearly every night. Theatre parties are fre-^uently given in his honor, and at the balls he is among the most active dancers. His attentions to the young woman referred to have been so marked as to canse comment. The rumor is of course denied by her friends, but there is a certain amount of baiiis foi i it. Mr. Chamberlain has been twice left a ! widower. Although about 60 jsars of ' age. he does not look more than 30, and •shows the enthusiasm of a boy without I'll take a couple of ^^ntif o' dignity. When he came to the »h,.u > r.»i,- â- )" i Lnited Slates his attention to the many pretty young women he met were impar- tial. He for a time made his compliments to them all in such a way that no one coald datter herself that she mouapolized his admiration. Of late, however, he has not been so impartial, and this has given rise to the latest story. The young woman, whose friends deny there is anything in it, is a brunette, tall and statelv. and noted for her simplicity in matters of dress. She is good looking, but by co means the handsomest girl in o^cial life at the capital. The best blood of New Ent;land courses in her veins, and she has all the Pruyerâ€" Boston culture without C'/ucj'/o Tribuiu. A DiaeoMloa Not I>«clded by Intolerance uf <3plnioQ. The following is an extract from a late New York Irwune editorial ; " There is, perhaps, no menial vit^e so common aa intolerance of opinion. Kven such as think they have emancipated themselves from the clinging aefe<;t find it hard to acknowledge frankly to themselves that the opinion of some cue else upon a matter they have studied may very well be as deserving of respect as their own. if it differs radically from their own. If we ccuid all get rid of this ' last infirmity.' cot only c£ • noble minds,' bat of nearly all hamaa minds, how much less friction there woixld be in life, how much less bitter- ness and hearlburatcg and envy and ail uncbaritableness." In an adjoining column of the same paper WIS found the following peculiar commen- tary oa the editorial; " The bitterness of the controversy lathe American Board over the question of pro- bation after death was very great. This rather shocked the simple-minded and earnest foreign missionaries who attended the sessions cf the Board, one of whom said he had aiways thought such questions were decided by prayer. Bat if the debate was no: altogether Christian la spirit, it was strictly parliamentary. The brethren didn't forget to put a copy of Cushing's Manual in their valise along with tbeir Bible, and apparently some of them con- ulted it ofteuer than the Bible."

Herr Klimper is a very stout man weigh- ing upwards oi 'JOOlbs- He IS a profesjsor of music, and gives lessons on the piano. He is also somewhat of an inebriate. He recently moved into rooms in the fifth story of a Harlem apartment bouse. He cele- brated 1. s moving into new quarters by getting drunk. He came home about TJ o'clock, and the fact that it took him thr-e- quarters of an hour to ascend the stairs to his rooms proves that he must have been having a very nice time of it with his boon companions. Next morning two old ladies living on the floor below conversed about the new tenant. "Have you seen the new tenant. Hert Klimper .'" " No, I've not si-en him, but it is very inconsiderate lu bim to havo his piano brought up into his room at IJ o'clock at night, disturbing the boarders. It must be an awful big piano by the trouble they bad with it." â€" l\i<is Siftinjs. Tb« Canal la the Lar Cuniuierce uf the C'ousu. The fact that fifteen or twenty-iiTe steamers a month are now arriving at the mouth of the Congo illustrates the growth of commerce lu that region since Stanley showed the importance of the great river. One ocean steamer has already ascended the river to Boma, fifty miles from the aea, and the best channels are being marked bv buoys, so that deep draught vessels may safely navigate the lower river. Little hotels (or the entertainment of travellers have been built at Banana and Boma. One reason why the whites on the lower river enjoy far better health than formerly is said to be because they have discarded can- ned meats, and now raise their own beef. Cattle thrive finely at Boma, and it takes a steer every three days to feed the whites who are now living at that station. â€" .SVu- York^un.
