Constantino, who desired to have as
many houses as possible in the new Ro'

free bread according to the houses, not
to tho number of persons. Some of the
Roman emperors appropriated large
amounts of money for keeping down the
prioc of bread in the capital, while
others taxed the provinces heavily to
make provisions cheap in the mel ropolis.
This caused the idle and improvident ol

A Fruitful Region.
The region extending from Vacavillo
to "Winters, California, a distance of
twelve miles, is the most valuable agricultural
section in the United States. It
produces every deciduous and citrus frait
and the choicest table grapes in the most
prodigal abundance, and with the unailing
regularity of the recurring seasons.
But in addition to this, nature has given
this section precedence in the time o!
ripening its produce, and thereby at
least doubled its market value. Think
? of a manufacturer whose facilities foi
production are as good as any of his
competitor?, and in addition can realize'
double the pricc for his commodity that
any of his rivals can obtain for the same
good. This is just the situation of the
Vacaville fruit farmer as compared with
the producer in any other section of the
United States. Because the peach first
blushes, and the grape purples, and the
apricot turns to gold two or three weeks
sooner upon the hillsides of this section,
every dealer from San Francisco to New
York is willing to pay doublo price for
Vacaville fruit. This enormous advantago
in the market has made this section
one of the wealthiest in the state. No
advertising has attracted immigration.
, ? f. O 7
no mining or mercantile wealth accumulated
elsewhere has assisted in developing
this section; but wherever a fine
residence or a comfortable home is seen,
it is a monument of the successful struggle
with fortune of some penniless man,
who commenced on that spot as a market
gardener or laborer.?San Francisco
Chronicle.
Puzzle Jugs.
$ Wager on puzzle jugs, says the Pottzry
Gazette, were once great favorites in village
inns. They were made at least as
-early as the seventeenth century, and at
the beginning of the present century
were still being produced. Mr. Solon
and Mr. Willett possess some charac
tcristic examples; others aro in the
museums of South Kensington and
Jcrmyn street. Theso tantalizing vessels,
though not always equally complex, have
generally some features in common. In
spite of their many spouts, a perforated
neck usually prevented the abstraction
of their contents in their ordinary way.
But a secret passage for tho liquor up
the hollow handle and through one
>;V; spout or nozzle afforded the means of
sucking out the contents. Of course*,
all other spouts and a small. concealed j
'i . hole under the top of the handle had to j
oe closed by the fingers judiciously employed
during the imbibing process.
, The inscriptions found on some of these
puzzle jugs usually relato to the difficulty
of getting at their contents. The
7 \ following is an example, written in
ft "scratch blue," on a salt-glazed jug,
formerly in the possession of Professor |
:-/v Ohurch:

A French Flower Form.
There is on the maritime foot-hills, in
the department of Var, a flower farm of (
about seventeen acrcs,belonging to Mrae. |
j de Rostamg. It is about 2,000 foot above
, the level of the Mediterranean, and perhaps
twenty miles from the coast. The j
calcareous soil was naturally thin and ,
poor, and tho olive trees which had (
occupied tho ground for a century j
or moro previous to 1881, yielded
but scanty and unsatisfactory returns,
and tho land was regarded
as practically worthless. In 1881 tho j
proprietress caused the ground to bo
cleared and prepared for flower culturc.

the larger stones removed. In the
autumn of 1881, 45,000 tufts of violets, '
and 140,000 roots of tho white jasmine
were planted. The following spring the '
remainder of tho ground was planted
with roses, geraniums, tuberoses, and (
jonquils, and a laboratory creotcd for tho !
manufacture of perfumes. The location .
proved to have been well chosen, the
flower plants grew vigorously and etrong,
and in 1885 (the fourth year after planting)
the flower farm of Seillans, which
had previously yielded a rental of $115 a j
year, produced (uccording to the statement
of the proprietress) perfumes valued |
at $43,154, and giving a net profit of ;
$7,707.80. Of coursc the plants and
shrubs at Saillans have not yet reached ;
their full productive capacity, but the
results of the fourth year illustrate sufficiently
how lucrative flower farming may
become, in favorable locations, and {
under good management.?Washington 1

Limps of Angels,
The author of "Camp-Life on tho j
Satpura Range" relates this conversation
which he had with an English friend of
his and a Mohammedan native of India. |
It is interesting as shown the superstition j
of the Hindoos and the poetic character ,
of their fancy:
As we neared the camp a most beautiful
meteor sailed slowly down from the
starry sky, like a ball of fire, which divided
and fell in a fiery stream. All
present looked at it with silent astonishment
for a few seconds, then I laughingly
turned and said to Ifusseer
Khan:
"One of the angels has droppod his
lamp, eh, Nusseer Khan?"
"It must be so, my lord ? who
knows?"
Seeing my friend somewhat puzzled at
the remarks, I explained that tho Mohammedans
have an idea that the stars
are the lamps of the angels guarding the
gates of heaven, and that a shooting star
is a lamp carelessly dropped.
"The idea is pretty," he rejoined,
"but surely they are not so ignorant in
these days as to believe it?"
"Why not? The lower classes in moro
civilized countries bclievo things quite
as absurd. Of course, the educated
Hindoos know better, but the illiterate
believe anything that is put into their
heads."
Fashions In Tombstones.
There are fashions in tombstones, but
they change slowly. The stylos of the
present do not differ much from those of
twenty years ago, but a difference is
noticed in those set up fifty or more
years ago. There were never columns
in those days. As now, the cheaper
stones were plain slabs. One of the expensive
shapes, which always marked a
distinguished grave, was a marble slab
laid horizontally on four marble columns,
making a sort of a table. The inscription
was carved on tho top, which allowed
plenty of space for verses, which
no wel\ regulated gravestone of the first
part of the century could do without.
These verses, which read so quaiutly now,
were always written by the pastor. It was
his duty when ono of his parishioners
died to compose a suitable stanza, and
the ministers were always paid for them
?a thing that few periodicals even o
those days would have done. In olden
times nothing but brownstone and
sandstone was used. The carving was
crude, and one of the requirements of I
fashion was that every slab should iiave
a human face carved over the inscription.
The stylish gravestone to have
now is a monument.?New York Mail and
Express.

The Boef-E iters of the World.
If there were any soundness in the statistics
of Mr. P. S. Lamas, who is stated
to be an economist of great repute, and
who is certainly an industrious compilci
of figures, the English people can no
longer boast to be, or be jeered at as
being, the greatest beef-eaters in the
world. According to the economist's
computation, tbo annual consumption of
I Knof in T?.iirAr\rt 4 ^ A PT ? J
i mvva ?u ^iutv|iu t?njv/v*i/9 iu in jjuuuutt per
! boad of tho population in a year. The
Australians consume 150 pounds a man,
and the Americans 180 pounds, while
the other great continent of Argentino
(from which Mr. Lamas hails) cats level
with Australia. At his rate there must
bo a very great number of people in the
world who get along without eati&gbeef
at all. But the calculations are based on
one which is yet more extraordinary?
namely, that on the whole globe the total
head of cattlo is 47,500,000, or about an
ox and a half for every ono in Great Britain,
and none at all for anybody else.
Still, facts are facts and figures aro

If you are unable to take such exercise on <
horseback or on foot, that should furnish no
excuse for shutting yourself ln-doors, but you
should take exercise in a carriage, or in some
other way bring yourself in contact with tho J
ojwn air. (
Medicines which came expectoration must ]
be avoided. For Ave hundred yoars phy- ]
sicians have tried to cure Consumption by i
u ing them, and have failed. Where there is 1
great derangement of the secrctions, with *
engorgement of air-cells, there is always '
profuse expectoration. Now Piso's Cure removes
the engorgement and the derangement ,
of tho secretions, and consequently (and in
this way only) diminishes the amount of matter
expectorated. This medicine does not dry
up a cough, but romoves the cause of it.
When it is impossible from debility or other
causes to exercise freely in the open air, apartments
occupied by the patient should be so
ventilated as to ensure the constant accession
of fresh air in abundance.
The surface of the body should bo sponged
as often as every third day with tepid water
and a little soft-soap. (This is preferable to
any other.) After thoroughly drying, use
friction with the hand moistened with oil.
Cod-Liver or Olive Is the best. This keeps the

We will here say a word In regard to a cough
in the t> rming stage, where there is no con*
stitutionai or noticeable diseiise. A cough
may or may not foreshadow terious evil; take
it in its mi des* form, to say tho least, it Ja a
nu sance, and should be abated.
A cough is unlike any other symptom of disease.
It stands a conspirator, witn threatening
voice, menacing the health and existence
of a vital organ. Its first approaou in whispers
unintelligible, and at it ret too often unheeded,
but in time it never fails to ma e itxolf
understood?never falls to claim the attonticn
of those on whom it calls.
If you have a counh without disease of the
lungs or serious constitutional disturbance, so
much the better, as a fow do es of Piso's Cure
will be all you may ueed, while if you re far
advanced in Consumption, several bottles may
be reoulred to Affect n. i?ermanent cure.
