"Prussian Lddr." [Now Orleans Ttmcs,] If there is a merchant in New Orleans who can sell goods at any price ho chooses to fix on theim, Rube Hoffenstein who keeps a clothing and shoe store on Poydras street, is tho man. One day a customer entered his estab lishnient and inqtiired: "Have you any low quarter gaiters?" "Certainly, my frent. I haf any adyle you wish, und someding dot vas neat. I Now here vas a pair uf gaiters vat is made uf Prussian ledder, do pest kind I vat is known, und I dinks dey vill suit you. Suppose you dry dem on." "All right," replied the customer. "Vait, my frent, and I'll put a leedle bowder in. Now dry dem. Ah, vat petter shoe you vant dan dat? It vita shust as if somebody takes your meas ure." "It's too tight across the instep," said the customer, rubbing the spot with his fingers. "It vill edretch, my dear sir," replied Hoffenstein persuasively, "dot ledder vaa made expressly for sdretching." "But the shoe pinches my toes, also." "Dot is noding; it vill go vayr do first time it gets vet. You don' vant to buy a pair uf shoes more as dree sizes too big, und go around do ladies mit your feet looking like a gouple of railroad scrapers. It vould be a shame, you know." "What do you ask for the shoes?" "Only seex dollars." "JerusalemI That's too much," "Veil, my dear sir, von must recollect dat dem shoes vas ma~lo of Prussian led der, and ledder dere vas scatme. My uncle vat lifs dere write me last veek, und said dat ledder vas so scarce dey don't make harness mit it any longer. All do harness dere is now made of wool." "I tell you what I'll do," said the culs. tomer, examining the shoe closely, "I'll give you four dollars." "My g-r-racious! A Prussian ledder shoe for four dollars ven it costs me m4 ore as five dollars and fifty cents laid at the depot down, und the profit on den don't pay for the gas. My g-r-r-acious, vat's do matter mit do people?" "Well, I'm not going to give $6 for those shoes," said the customer, moving toward the door, "they are not worth it."9 "Veil, my frent, take them along for $4, und call around again some odder day." . The customer paid for the shoes and taking his parcel, left the store. "Herman," inquired Hoffenstein of his clerk, "vat vas de cost brice of dem split ledder shoes I shust sold de gentle man?" "Von dollar und a half, sir." "*My g-r-r-acious, Herman, dink how small (de profit vas. If pisness, you know, Herman, don't get petter it vill preak all de store up. P'ossibilities of Cotton Prodnetion. It may:~ be well to remark at the out set thait the prcoduction of cotton in the south is practically without limit. It was 1830) before the American crop reached 1,000,0)00 bales, and the highest p~oint ever reached in the days of slav ery was a tritle over 4,1500,000 bales. The crop of 1880-81 is about 2,000,000 in excess of this, and there are those who believe that a crop of 8,000,000 bales is among the cel tainties' of the next few years. The heavy increase in the cotton crop is due entirely to the increaise of cotton acreage brought about by the use of fertilizers. Mi ions of acres of land, formerly thought to be beyond the possible liuiit of the cotton helt, have been made the best of cotton lands by being artinicially en riched. In North Carolina alone the limit of cotton production has bee moved twenty miles northward and twenty miles westward, and the half of Georgia on which no cotton was grown twenty years ago no0w produces fully half the crop of the State. The "area of low production " as the Atlantic c States are brought to the front by arti ficial stimulation is moving westward and is now central in Alabama and Florida. But the increase in acreage, as large as it is, will be but a small factor ~ in the increase of production, compared a to the intensifying of the land now i use. Under the present loose system of planting, the average yie.d is only one F bale to three acres. This could be easi- ( ly increased to a bale an acre. In ~ Georgia five bales have been raised on ' one acre,,and a yield of three bales to 'a the acre is credited to several localities. A President Moreheaid, of the Mississippi b Valley Cotton Planters' Association, a says that the entire cotton crop of the 8 present, year might have been easily l0 raised in fourteen counties along the a Mississippi river. It will be seen, b therefore, that the cap~acity of the E South to produce cotton is practically limitless, and, when we consider the enormous demand for cotton goods now opening up from new climes and peo ples, we, may conclude that the near fuiture will see crops compared to which the crop of the past year, worth $800, 000,000, will seem smnall.-JHenry W. Grad. in Hlarper's Maaazine. Specifie Against Typhoid. Dr. Guillas-se, of the French navy, in a paper on typhoid fever. speaks of t he great benefit which has been derived from the use of coffee. He has found that ro sooner have the patients a few I table-spoonfuls of it thian their features g become relaxed and they come to their senses. The next day the improvement is such, as to leave no doubt that the artole ii just the specinec needed. Under the mnfluence the stupor is dispelled 0 and the p~atient rouses from the state of bJ Somnoency in which lhe has been since 5 the mnvasion of the disease ; soon ah the il functions take their natural course, and ni he enters upon convalescence.

CHEAP PAiNT.-Three hu'ndred parts )f washed and sieved white sand, forty parts of precipitated chalk, fifty parts of -esin and four parts of linseed oil are nixed and boiled in an iron kettle, and lien one part of oxide of copper and )no part of sulphuric acid are added. rh mass is at plied with an ordinary ,aint brush white warm. If too thick, t is diluted with linseed oil. Thie paint Iries rapidly and gets very hard, but protects wood-work excellently. LABELS FOR TIN.-We copy from the Uhenista' and Druggist8' Diary for L879 the following formula for a cement to make paper stick to tin: 1, Add to or linary paste a little honey or glycerine; 2, wash the surf te of the tin with muri itic acid before affixing the label; 3, add nuriatic acid to the gum-this is apt to sause the metal to rust under and around the label ; 4, add a little ammnouia ; or, , tartaric acid to the starch paste or nucilago ; 6, add aluminium sulphate (uot alum) to the mucilage. 7. TIhe bWst plan is said to be to add 20 drops liq. autim. chlor. to 8 ounces of paste or rnticilatge. To REMOVE INN 8TAINS.-The Jour nalde PArtmacied'A nvcrsreconmends pyropliosphato of soda for the removal of ink stains. This salt does not injure vegetable fiber and yields colorless com pounds with the ferr o oxide of the ink. Lt is best to first apply tallow to the ink miot, then wash in a solution of pyro p)hospbate until both tallow and ink have disappearedl 8taia b t'ed anilino luk may be removed by moistening th ,pot with strong alcohol acidulated with Liitrc acid. Unless the stain is pro iuced by eoSine, it disappears without liculty. Paper is hArdly afledtud by the proeOss, still it is always advisable to make a blank experiment first. AN EASILY MADE CHAIR.-The Scien ifc A mcrican gives an engraving of a very cheap yet strong and comfortable ahair which may be made as elegant as lie tastes of the maker ma dicate. n e chair consists merely of abarrel out >l above the secon-I hoop so ae to form j complete back with half arms at the iide. The barrel thus cut is mounted >i two stripi of wood, having Casters ,inder their endas and brackets abovo to ,orm the legs and to add to the appear nce of the chair. A head is fitted to he circular portion and the whole is Eeatly upholstered. Of course it is ne 3e'ssary to select a good barrel bound with iron hoops, and a little care should be taken in the upholstering to disguise the barrel form as much as possible.

In general they do not attack caravans, and ;iever in day-time. At most a hun lion may spring upon and carry o a straggler while passing through the brakes and i jungles. But it is otherwise at night. en lions seent the caravan from afar, particularly if it contains goats or beasts of burden, they approach and announce 4 their vicunty by terrific roars. Never theless, in a wel-inclosed camp there is no danger; the lions never attempt to clear the obstacles, and marksmen from behind the palisades can pick them off I with almost uinfailing aim. There is danger only when the camp is not com pletetly inclosed, or when those inside go out to attack them."

FACTS ABOUT UMBRELLAS. Antiquariana say tlat the timbrella was in vented shortly after the flood, and has been the least improved upon of all appliances for human comfort the shape being now as it was in those youthful days of the world. An umbrella is much like a Vgem to the question of posses sion-the last one wo gets it owns it. The fol lowing facts about umbrelfs-esp.eelally the last one-may servo every reader a spllendd purpose sooner or later: To place your umzntella in a rack indicates that it is about to change othets., An umbrella carried over a woman, the mftA getting nothing but drippings of the rain, indicatescourt ship. When the man has the umbrella and t% woman the drippins, it indicates marriag. 'T carry it at right anglc" under your arm sign ifles that an eye is to be lost by the man who follows yOtL To put a cotton um brella by the side ofa:nice silk one signifies that " exchange is no robbery." To lead an unibrella si ifies that "I ani a fool." To carry tn umbrella Just high enough to tear out men eyes and knock off men's hats, signifies "I sim a woman." To go without an umbrella in a rain-storm shows I am sure of getting rheu matism, and will have to use ST. JACOBS OIL to get well." To keep a fine umbrella for your own use and a bottle of ST.
