IGNORANT OF GEOGRAPHY.
a German Put Posers to nu
American Olrl
"A thing about Americans which baa
surprised me more than anything else,"
Mid a German artist Who has been visiting
In Nfw York city for six months
past, '"Is that with ull your patriotism
you know so little about the geography
of your own country, to say nothing of
the rest of the world."
There were several Americans In the
circle, rind they looked nather surprised.
None of the men si>oke. They
knew that they were weak in geogra.
phy and that here was u challenge
which would have to pass.
Not so a bright young woman of
twenty, who rushed into the breach
with her head In the air.
"We do know the geography of our
country," she said decidedly.* "Of'
eeurso-we da. Every child learns it In
ehopl" ,
"Might I ask you a question or two?"
the foreigner said quietly. "The names
of the capitals of some of your states,
for Instance?"
"Certainly, im b6 glad to answer."
And she nodded eonfldently at the
Rung American man who was already
ginning to fear for her.
"What ,1s tiTe capital of Mnssnehu
etts?" was his first question.
"Boston!" was the prompt answer
from the girl.
"And of North Carolina?"
That seemed to puzzle her a little,
and It was a full minute before sho answered
"Cluirleston!"
The foreigner smiled, but made no
effort to correct her. "What is the
highest mountain In the United ,
States?" he asked.
"It's not fntp tr? nol' ?> '>"?
IV uoi\ <11 My lib 1I1UUU*
tains," she protested. "You said I
didn't know the eaplfhls."
"The capital of Illinois la?"
"Chi?Springfield, I mean."
"Of Montana?"
For the'life 9t her she could not
think of a town In Montana. "It'a
been an age since 1 studied geography,"
she explained.
"Your nnswers were hotter than the
arerajfe," ??kl the man. "You got one
right out of four. As I said, American
geography surprises me."?New York

' Candle*.
"1 thought candles went with stagecoaches,
but a good many people must
use them yet," said a shopper who
pointed to a collection of candlesticks,
all of the utility sort, arrayed In n
house furnishing department. There
were big and little, ornamental and
plain, practical and unpractical one*.
Some had broad trays, and others had
none ut all, and some hnd devices for
lifting the candle, while others were
made with deep nceks. Thero still remain
people who cling to the traditions
of their ancestors and will have none
of the mod! rn lighting Inventions for
their sleeping rooms. Certain women
prefer a light in their bedrooms until
they are asleep, and for this purpose a
candle Is Just the thing, for It will put
itself out at the time proportioned by
its length.?New York Tribune.

A Neatncu and a Brilliancy Thai
Whole Place?Ruler Which the Inhabitants
Mast Observe.
Far up In northern Holland among
the dikes and canals of the little kinglorn
lies Broeck, the original Spotless
Town. The palings of tho fences of
Broeck are sky blue. The streets are
paved with shining bricks of many colors.
Tho houses are rose colored,
Plnck, gray, purple, light blue or pale
ijrecn. The doors are painted and glldnL
For hours you may not see a soul
In tlio. streets or at the windows. Tho
streets aud houses, bridges, windows
ind barns show a neatness and a brilliancy
that are absolutely-painful. At
svery step a new effect Is dttclqpcd, a
new scene is beheld, as II pa^lt?n upon
".lie drop ^Cuytnin of urlt<ig|jk ?3Byery:hing
Is mlhute, compact, painted,
spotless and clean. In the houses of
Broeclc for cleaning purposes you will
3nd big brooms, little brooms, toothbrushes,
nqun fortis, whiting for the
window panes, rouge for the forks and
spoons, coal dust for the copper, emery
Tor tho iron utensils, brick powder for
the floors and even small splinters of
wood with which to pick out the tiny
bits of straw in the cracks between tho
briclto. Here are some of tho rules of
this wonderful town:
Citizens must leave their shoes at tho
loor when entering- a house.
Before or after sunset no one Is allowed
10 smoke excepting with a pipe having a
:over, so that the ashes will not be scattered
upon the street.
Any one crossing the village on horse>ack
must get out of the saddle and lead
:he horse.
A cuspidor shall be kept by the front
loor of each house, whero It may bo ac:esslble
from tho window.
It is forbidden to cross the village In a
carriage or to drive animals through the
itroets.
In addition to these established rules
t is the custom for every <fltizcn who
5cos a leaf or'a bit of'straw blown before
bis house by tbo wind to pick it
ip and throw it into the canal. The
people, go 500 paces out of the village
:o dust their shoes. Dozens of boys
ire paid to blow the dust from be;ween
tbo bricks in tho streets four
limes an hour. In certain houses tho
j-uests are carried over the threshold
k> as not to soil the pavements. At
>no time the mania for cleaning hi
Broeclc reached such a point that tho
housewives of the village neglected
5ven their religious duties for scrubbing
and washing. The village pastor,
lfter trying every sort of persuasion,
preached a long sermon, in wliieh he
leclnred that every Dutchwoman who
had faithfully fulfilled her duties toward
God In this world would find in
the next a bouse packed full of furniture
and stored with the most various
ind precious articles of use and ornament,
which, not being distracted by
Dther occupations, she would be able
lo brush, wash and polish for all eternity.
The promise of this sublime
recompense and tlio thought of this
extreme happiness filled the women'
ivlth such fervor and piety that fori
months thereafter the pastor bad nol
rause for complaint. 1
Around every house in Broeck are'
nuckets, benches, rakes, boes and
stakes, all colored red, blue, white or
rellow. Tho brilliancy nud variety of
jolors and the cleanliness, brightness
ind miniature pomp of the place are
wonderful. At the windows there are
imbroidered curtains, with rose colled
ribbons. r?he blades, bands and
aails of the gayly paiuted windmills
shine like silver. The houses are
irightly varnished and surrounded
with red and white railings and fences.
The panes of glass In the windows are
jordered by mauy lines of different
lues. The trunks of all the trees are
tainted gray from root to branch.
Across the streams are many little
ivooden bridges, each painted as white
is snow. The gutters are ornamented
with a sort of wooden festoon, perforated
like lace. The pointed facades
are surmounted with a small
weathercock, a little lance or sornehing
resembling a bunch of flowers.
Nearly every house has two doors,
>ne in front and oue behind, the last
for everyday entrance ajid exit and"
;ho former opened only on great occailons,
such as births, deaths and marla
ges.
The gardens are us peculiar as the
louses. The paths are hardly wide
mougli to walk in. One could put
lis arm around the flowerbeds. The
lalnty urbors would barely hold two
lersons sitting close together. The title
myrtle hedges would scarcely reach
o the knees of a four-year-old child.
Between the arbors and the flower
icds run little canals which seem made
o iioju paper boats. They arc crossed '
?y miniature wooden bridges, with,
olored pillars and parapets. There
ire ponds the size of a bath, wb^lch
ire almost concealed by llllipMtian
boats tied with red cords to blue
ttakes, tiny staircases and miniature
titclien gardens. Everything could be
neasurcd with the band, crossed at a
cap, demolished by a blow. More>ver,
there are trees cut In the shapo
>f fans, plumes and disks, with their
.runks colored white and blue. At
jvery step one discovers a new effect,
i fresh combination of hues, a novel
raprlce, some new absurdity.
The rooms are very tiny and resemble
so many bazaars. There are porcelain
figures on the cupboard, Chinese
?ups and sugar bowls oo and under
;bo tables, plates fastened on the
walls, clocks, ostrich eggs, shells,
rases, plates, glasses, placed In every
corner and concealed In every nook,
rupboards full of hundreds of trifles
md ornaments without name, a crowd* |
ng disorder and utter confusion ot|
rotors.?Poblle Opinion. A f
