Be very careful éxactly to prepay your letters and packages, for many have been lost through carelessness in this respect. In many instances letters really are properly stamped, but being done at the last moment, the stamp does not have time to dry, and consequently drops off or adheres to soime foreign substance, and is spoiled. Many persons keep a neat little pair of scales on their writing-table, and thus are able to weigh their own mail matter, which is an excel- lent plan, as then they can ‘put on the stamps at leisure, and there is no danger either of their dropping off or being over or under stamped. To conctide, in all packages and documents sent by mail remember as an favariable rule that unless the address and the inclosure keep together there is no hope of Ideatifymg the goods seut.

Women and Moncy—Americans Abroad —Asking for Things. From the London Standard. We are tired of hearing people quote the Frenchman's notion of what the average Eng- lishman says to his triend at breakfast: “A fine day! Let us go and kill something.” It might be said with equal truth that the first instinct of every idie female mind is: us go shopping” Why it should be that shopping is peculiarly a Indy’s affair is stY | not so easy a question to decide.

The fact still remains that in most cases of expenditure a woman can make a shilling or a pound go fur- ther than amanean. There is a curious touch of penuriousness, in all a woman's money deal- ings. A woman loves to save a penny for the sake of principle in cases where her husband would only a single — beg: know — that rly copper.

It is sy to see how this can be In America its Yet it is noticeable on the continent that Ameri- as zoabout thiskind of occupation at onee more determinedly and more pleasurably than do any others of their sex. No doubt one of th of thisis, that things in Europe appear to so cheap. It is oiten remarked by our trans- atlantic cousins that they can come over to Ei travel, enjoy good things, and buy pre for tin money that it would cost them to live qui ‘tly at home. Still, there is a knowingn in the way Americans do their shopping that certainly wins a kind of admira- tion. They all set out with the axiom that in a visit to a good establishment they should make a point of seeing everything good con- tained iit. Thus it becomes a diversion some- thing like visiting the picture galleries.

From the Chicago Tribune. “There is no way that I know of whereby you can keep mosquitoes from biting you except by keeping them off by some gort of obstruction,” said a well-known entomologist in reply toa question, the purport of wliich is indicated by the answer. “Itis true, however, that at cer- tain times when the mosquitoes are not vora- cious nor strong and vigorous, as, owing to the cool weather they now are, a simple rubbing of the exposed parts with oil will keep them off; then, when they have become a little more ag- gressive. the oll of perinyroyal will. if placed on arag near or on the piliow, for instance, by its powerful odor keep them at’ a distance as long as the odor lasts, which is not a great while, but long enough to permit one to get to sleep, when one may become oblivious to the bites and music of the pestss But there are times when nothing but netting will keep them off, for they become absolutely ferocious. I saw the other day an account! of some traveller in the country of the Cossack, in which he stated that at times the mosquitoes would light down upon | them aninch thick, and unless they had been prepared with cages aid netting for thelr heads, and heavy leather gloves on their hands, they would have been bitten to death. The same ac- count went on to state that the inhabitants of that country burn piles of manure all the time in front of their huts, the smoke from which makes @ great cloud, which has the effect of driving the pests away from the villages toa great extent. but where this or other protection is not atforded they kill every living creature.” THE WAY THEY BITE. “How does the mosquito bite?” “T will tell you. But first let me explain. “The females are the ones which are theworst biters and most noisy singers, and this is prob- ably because they require more food to fit them to endure the labors-of maternity. Take a mos- quito, when you can catch one, and squeeze his head alittle and you will see his proboscis; squeeze a little harder and there will come out. of his proboscis five little lancets like bristles with a hook on the end of each. These are driven into the flesh. Now. the construction of these little hooks is such that the mosquito can withdraw them easily when it gets done making its meal. but if you kill it with a slap or drive it away suddenly these little hooks are left in the irritation than would naturally arise from the bi “But is not the bite poisonou: “Yes, to a certain extent, but not as the bite of a rattlesnake 1s poisonous. Look at _the mosquito under a glass and it is one of the most beautiful and del its structure is very frail. In withd biood from your hand, for example, it could hardly be expected to force its proboscis into the flesh and by the power of suction draw the thick blood through the very narrow aperture it has into its stomach. To help in this, nature has secreted in its proboscis a saliva, just as man has in his mouth. This liquid it Injects Into the incision, and it reduces or thins in some way the blood and by irritation draws it to the surface of the wound, go t! more readily taken up. All this ereates consid- erable pain and itching. Now, a sensible mos- quito, like a sensible man, will not salivate nor chew more than he can swallow. So If you let @ mosquito finish hismeal he will take up nearly all the saliva he injects, withdraw his proboscis, and leave comparatively little trace.” DIFFERING DEGRE : SESS. “But why is it that the bites affect people dit ferently? “I suppose that Is because of the difference in bodily conditions. A bite on different, portions of the body is quite a different thing. Let a mosquito bite you on the end of your finger or on the gole of your foot, and see how different it is from a bite on the cheek or arm. Persons who suffer most from mosquito-bites have a supersensitive skin that suffers trom any irrita- ion. wing the HOW TO TREAT A BITE. Desirous of discovering something about the treatment of the bites ot mosquitoes the reporter visited doctor and asked him if he ever had calls for the treatment of mosquito-bites.

SS + A Wonderfal Book. the Chicago Herald, e got the most wonderful book in the world right here in my pocket,” bragged an Ohio man, as he puffed at his briar pipe in the smoking car. ‘What is it?” inquired a Hoosier, “Guess,” responded the Buckeye. The passen- ger guessed. *‘A Koran,” said a man from Pitts- burg; “A copy of Eliot’s Indian Bible,” yen- tured a Bostonian; “Hoyle,” suggested a Kansas City stockman; ‘Boccacio’s Decameron,” re- marked a Chicagoan, bashfully; “The Holy Bible,” guessed a Philadelphian, proudly. But they were all wrong. ‘one of ye’s hit it,” re- sumed the Ohioan. ‘You couldn't guess it ina week. It Is the most wonderful book in the world, I tell ye, an’ thousands 0’ copies has been printed. My Congressman gave it to me. It has in it more than any other book ever struck off the press. ’cause it contains a complete description of the hopes and aspirations of all the big men and politicians of this country; it has all the principles of the political parties in ft, and sets every- thing out so clear that ye can’t be mistaken about it. Why, it’s a perfect cyclopedia of poli- tics, Ifyou want to know why a certain man inany part of the country worked hard and spent moneyin order to go as delegate to Chicago just look in this book.
