From the Chicago News. There are many of the lower animals that feign death when it serves their pur- pose to do so. Creatures as low in the scale as microscopic animalcules will, when surprised by an enemy, pretend that they are dead. There is a fresh-water worm which, when approached by a giant water beetle, makes use of this stratagem: It will be swimming along, when suddenly it will bang limp and threadlike, the sport of the currents and waves. The reason for this peculiar action is the approach of one of the beetles. After the beetle disappears the worm comes to life. Grubs and cater- pillars feign death. A naturalist watched a caterpillar one dey which accidentally fell into a little sandy pit. Every time it at- tempted tu climb up the side of the pit it fell back, dragging with it a quantity of sand. It tried all sides, and finally when almost up dislodged a corn cob, which fell into the pit, dragging the caterpillar. The caterpillar thought the cob was an enemy and curled up in a tight ball, lay ‘dead’ some minutes and finally cautiously came to life and successfully crawled away. The black viper and tree moccasin snakes have the habit of feigning death. A wonderful Piece of acting was witnessed by a man who was teasing a black viper. The snake suddenly rose, bent over, bit itself in the back, shuddered and stretched out for dead. The man sat down and watched it. In about fifteen minutes it woke up and scur- ried away. This snake is called the suicide snake by farmers, who insist that it pol- sons itself. Ants play “dead,” and the opossum’s tricks in this direction are very well known. See Worth Trying, and Cheap. From the American, The capriciousness of hay fever and the oceasional relief obtained from an entirely empirical method of treatment warrant the publication of any means which has proved successful, in the hope that it may be of use to some other person afflicted with this annoying disease. Feber of Hamburg re- ports his own case, which had been so se- vere as to necessitate his using a closed carriage all through the summer. His re~ lief was brought about from accidentally noticing that in the winter a coryza was usually accompanied with hot ears, which regained their normal temperature when the discharge from the nose was estab- shed. He determined to try a reversed order of effect on the hay fever in the sum- mer, and began, accordingly, to rub his ears until they became red and hot. It is now the third year that he has been able to lead an endurable existence during hay fever season. “As soon as the least sensa- tion of fullness in the nose appears, there is recognized a certain amount of pallor in the ears. A thorough rubbing of the ears, at times even to contusion, has always suc- ceeded in freeing tke nasal mucous mem- brane from its congestion. The rubbing, however, must pe thorough, and repeated as often as the least symptom of congestion returns to the nose. Since, using this means I have been adle to take long sandy walks, sit, and even sleep, with open win- dows, or pass an evening in my garden without distress. Several patients have had relief from this treatment, always in pro- portion to the thoroughness of the rub- hing, and I hope by this means some other physician may be able to give his patients the same great relle How Gambetta Died. Paris Dispateh to the London Chronicle. The mysterious death of Gambetta has again been made a subject of controversy. The Gambettists would probably have done better to allow the whole truth to creep out, as it could only have ended in a dis- creet police investigation. Here it is as given by M. Henri Hecht, one of Gam- betta’s closest friends, and possibly Sir Charles Dilke could confirm the version if he liked: The deceased statesman had been living for some years with a lady whose (prob- ably assumed) name was Mme. Leonie Leon. A son was korn of this union, who was educated by a professor in Hanover. He is now in the French army. The mar- risge of Gambetta with a rich Bordeaux heiress being announced, a terrible scene took place between the pair at Les Jardies. The report of a revolver was heard by Paul, the faithful valet, but Gambetta made signs to show that no explanation was to be given. In the course of his last illness, Paul con- fided the real circumstances to a couple of friends, who recommended silence. Mme. Leonie Leon was present at the death. ‘The story of imprudently manipulating a re- volver is only true in the sense that can easily be divined. ———_+e+—____ Fruit Before or After Breakfast. ‘Thomas Murrey in Twentieth Century Cookery. When should we eat fruit, before or af- ter breakfast? This is not quite so im- portant a question as “Who will be the next President?” Still it is worth consider- ation. The hotel proprietors of Saratoga, after recommending their guests to drink quantities of the native waters before breakfast, then to eat fruit and a cup of coffee for breakfast, saved money thereby, as it-was almost impossible to eat any- thing more. In hot countries an egg and a little fruit is all that fs eaten at the first meal of the day. In this couniry we rush round so that we need something more substantial. What should it be, meat? Yes, if we are hard workers; no, if we lead office lives, but fruits in either or both cases. While waiting for breakfast to be served it is well enough to whet the appetite with a toothsome berry, a juicy grape fruit, a seeded grape or cherry, in- stead of reading a morning paper; but if the meal is ready why not eat it and eat the fruit at the end of the meal? There are those who cannot eat «n acid fruit the first thing in the morning, yet find the same fruit refreshing and palatable at the end of a repast. Should you find your desire for fruits falling off, it is because you eat them before, and not after, a meal. ——____+ e+ _____ English View of the Cost of Bicycles. From the London Spectator. The cost of a bicycle is at present con- siderable, but that is a result only of mo- nopolies, and must sooner or-later disap- pear. There is no reason in the world why a thin wheel of steel, every part of which except the tire can be mado by machinery, should cost frcm £10 to £30, and, as a mat- ter of fact, people who cannot pay those sums already contrive to pcesees them- selves of very serviceable machines. Poor students, domestic servants, and artisans may be encountered in the evening in scores on every road out of the great cities, and regular systems of selling bicycles at cheaper rates have been invented with an ingeruity most creditable to everything, but the dealers’ moral sense. You may buy certain machines “for export” at little more than half the advertised prices, or you may buy “second-hand” articles, which have perhaps been taken out three times, or you may buy machines “which have been superseded” by some trivial, or, if you ere tolerably sharp, some imperceptible improvement. The manufacturers are just now making fortunes, but the moment the demand slackens and the markets are a little glutted, competition will bring prices down with a run until they settle at be- tween £5 and £7, according to perfection of finish.

Given the time‘and the money the ques- tion of a summer holiday is by no means settled. There is the important consider: tion of where to go where one can get the most enjoyment: and recreation for the money. At this point The Star offers time- ly assistance, and those who are undecided where to go can get a deal of in- formation from the advertising columns of The Star. Brief mention is made below of some of the places, which are described more in detail in the columns above re- ferred to. The Clifton, corner of Atlantic and Con- necticut avenues, in Atlantic City, 16 a place that will attract a great many guests. n the first place it is a home-like house, with wide piazzas and a general air of cozincss, and for the latter Mrs. F. M. Cope, the proprietress, is responsible. Ac- commodations are ample for one hundred and fifty guests, and the terms are from $7 to $10 per week. Transient visitors are entertained for $1.50 to $2 a day. Other in- formaticn in relation to this place of a more general character can be obtained by applying to Mrs. Cope for circulars. First-class boarding can be obtained at the Ingomar, at Berkeley Springs, W. Va. The house is a large stone mansion, situ- ated in a four-acre lawn of forest oaks, and is one mule from the station and baths. Free drives, however, are offered by the proprietor. Further information can be ob- tained from Senator Catlett, at Berkeley Springs. One of the famous old hotels on the At- lantic coast 1s the Stockton at Cape May. Its name and fame is known all over the country to those who have visited the sea- side and to their friends, to whom they have described its charms and comforts up- on return. The house is open from June 6 to September 80 and is undcr the manage- ment of Mr. Horace M. Cake of Washing- ton, proprietor of, the Normandie Hotel. The house has every facility and requisite for the comfort of guests and many of the tooms have private baths. The plumbing is of the highest sanitary order and all the senitary arrangements are first class. T. Keck has reopened the Atlantic Hotel and cottages at Belmar, N. J., after they have been thoroughly remodeled and refitted and equipped with artesian water- works and electricity. He has accommo- dations of a first-class character for 175 Suests.

Mr. Foster also manages a smaller house, the Burwick Lodge, which is directly cn the ocean front. Mrs. M. M. Farrar of this city is in charge of the Eastern Star cottage at 149 Scuth Carolina avenue, Atlantic City. This is near the beach and in one of the most delightful neighborhoods in the famous resort. The house is well kept and the terms are reasonable. Away up in the mountains of Virginia on the main line of the Chesapeake and Ohio road is West Clifton Forge, which is rap- idly becoming one of the most favorite resorts in the south. One of the main reasons for this besides the climate 1s that the Gladys Inn is located there. Jt is well kept, well furnished and well man- aged, and those fond of hunting and fish- ing will find it an {deal place for a visit. C. P. Nair is the manager. Persons going to a summer resort for the first time are frequently at a loss to select a stopping place, but those who go to Asbury Park will make no mistake if they patronize the Marine Villa, 205 2a avenue. It ig near the beach, has a good table and large rooms. The proprietor is E. Helm. Mountain Lake Park in Garrett county, Md. fs situated midway between Oakland and Deer Park, 2,800 feet above the sea and in the midst of beautiful scenery. A delightful house at this place is Briar Bend Cotage, which is now open for the summer.

J., has the advantage of having every room in the house favored with a view of the ocean. The Dayton §s new and handsomely furnished and has one hundred rooms. William C. Crowell is the manager. The Passaic at Asbury Park is only one bleck from the ocean, being situated at the corner of 7th avenue and Webb street. Tke rooms are cool and well furnished, and the table is kept up in superior style. Miss J. Lyons is the manager, and will make known her reasonable terms upon application. One has all the privacy of a private dwelling and enjoys all the comforts of a first-class hotel when he stops at the El- beron at Cape May. It 1s situated di- rectly opposite Congress Hall, and its large Pilazzas are never free from _ cooling breezes. Mr. J. R. Wilson is the pro- prietor. It !s almost unnecessary to write any- thing in praise of the famous Ocean Hotel at Asbury Park, of which George L. Atkins & Sons are the proprietors. It 1s the largest hotel at Asbury Park and one of the leading hostelries of the country, and to hold such a@ position it must be naturally well kept in every particular, as it usually is. 3 The Potomac Hotel at St. George's Island has reopened for the summer, and will doubtless enjoy as prosperous a sea- son as it has in the past. It has always been popular with Washingtonians, who are fond of sailing, bathing, crabbing and fishing, the latter being particularly fine at the island. The rates are very rea- sonable, as a glance at the advertisement will show. Mrs. M. E. Suter, whose house, the Al- bany, at 1706 Summer street, Philadelphia, has gained such an enviable reputation, !s the proprietress this summer of the Hotel Selby, situated at Pacife and New. Jersey avenues in Atlantic City.? The Selby is one of the most pleasant» houses on the Jersey coast, and its convenient situation in Atlantic City makes it particularly at- tractive for summer pleasure seekers. The country around Shepherdstown, W.: Va., is picturesque, the:climate is famous for its healthfulness and during the sum- mer months there is a delightful society of sojourners that adds to the attractive- ness of the surroundings. One of the best-kept summer boarding houses in that neighborhood is Sudley »Place. Those wishing accommodations should address Mrs. H. McLean, Shepherdstown, W. Va. The Oriole, No. 2120 Pacific avenue, At- lantic City, under the: proprietorship of Mrs. C. E. Buzby of Baltimore, is open all the year, and is weil: kept and well patronized. ‘The rates at ‘the Oriole are extremely reasonable, while the character of the accommodations is excellent. In “The Colonial Cottage,” which is op- Posite the post office at Colonial Beach, airy rooms may be found and good home cooking may be enjoyed. The house is managed by a Washington lady and the terms are moderate. aS A Sad Oversight.

Frascati 1s twelve miles distant from Rome; a deliberate paced train occupies three-quarters of an hour in the journey, which is, however, longer on account of the curves than the road line. This is covered in an hour and a half by the smart little horses of the Campagna. But whether the traveler goes by road or by rail, the jour- ney is one of surpassing interest. for «there tp exgustio Campapos ts , ‘With wild Sowers overstrewn, like some loved oo . Ite aifent stretches haunted by vast trains QF ghostly shapes, where stake majestical, ‘Mid visionary pomp of vanished days, The buried grandeur of imperial Rome. Here, as elsewhere in this mysterious si- lent plain, the interest arises from the ru- ins with which it is strewn. A whole mighty civilization has arisen and flourish- ed with abounding life; and decayed, leay- ing scarcely “a wrack behind,” save the scattered and grass grown ruins, half- concealed beneath the soil of this solitary Plain. As the late W. W. Story has writ- ten of it—for he loved it as a second fa- therland: How it les throbbing there beneath the sun So silent with its ruins in its breast! But whatever the soil may conceal, the vast group of gigantic ruins near the fifth mile of the road fill the eye with their bulk and_vast extent. This is what the people of Rome have called “Roma Vecchia” or “old Rome,” apparently thinking that such extensive runs must be those of a whole city. High walls with gaping windows and great rents through which the daylight Parses, and tall towers with broken sum- mits, and vast chambers and halls and cor- ridors, with leaden pipes under ground, and columns and statues and marble fragments ~Such are the objects that, in part, were found here and, in part, still remain. The large modern farm house, kaown as “Ca- sale di Roma Vecchia,”' 1s built of the fragments of the ancient buildings that stood here. The very enumeration of the statues—several of them in the vatican museum—which were found here would fill a coluran. It was in this place that one authority placed the sepulcher of the so- called Tulllola, daughter of Cicero, the orator; but the dead body thus named was Aiscovered about half a mile off near the Appian way. Of this remarkable discovery, Lanciani has given a full account in his vecent work, derived from the diaries of contem- porary writers. Antonio di Vaseli says “that today, April 19, 1845, the news came into Rome that a body buried a thousand years ago had been found in a farm of Santa Marla Nova, in the Cham- pagna, near the Casale Rotondo.” A coffin Was sent to convey the remains to Rome, where c was placed in the palace of the conser ators on the capitol. The body ap- peared to be covered with a glutinous sub- stance, a mixture of myrrh and other pre- clous ointments, which attracted swarms of bees. “The said body,” continues Vaseil, “1s intact. The hair is long and thick; the eyelashes, eyes, nose and ears are spot- less, as weil as the nails. It appears to be the body of a woman, of good size, and her head is covered witha light cap of woven gold thread, very beautiful. The teeth are white and perfect; the flesh and the tongue retain their natural color, but if the gluti- nous substance is washed off, the flesh blackens in less than hour. And who was sie, this lady of the long distant past who had been preserved, in all her primitive beauty and undecaying freshness, through the many centuries? Many fdentitied her with Tulliola, daughter of Cicero; and one witness expressed his readiness to believe so because he had seen rear where she was found a tombstone with the name of Marcus Tullius; and be- cause Cicero {s known to have owned lands in the neighborhood. She was not the daughter of Cicero; nevertheless, crow: flocked to the capitol to gaze upon this an- tique lady whose body defied decay for over twelve centuries. Whoever she was, Pope Innocent VIII, in order to stop the excitement and superstitions of the citi- zens, ordered that her body should be re- moved at night outside the Porta Salaria, and buried secretly at the foot of the city walls. The marble coffin, or sarcophagis in which she was found, had an inserip- tion upon it which was read at the time, and which ought to have set at rest the vexed question as to who she was, if it Was not that then, as well as now, people preferred the pretty fiction they held to rather than the plain prosaic fact. The in- scription related that she was “Julia Pri ca, freed woman of Lucius Julius, who lived twenty-six years, one month, one She never did any wrong except to That last phrase, if it were truer than the run of modern epitaphs, ought to have served to render her immortal. It Was said of a thane of Cawdor, that “noth- ing in his life became him like the leav- ing it," how different was Julia Prisca, who “never did any wrong except to die.” see Dressed for Cold Weather. From the New York Tribune. A bulky-looking vagrant, who gave his name as John Bannon, was committed by Police Justice Potts to the Hudson county Jail. On reaching the jail yesterday the prisoner was taken to the bath room, and he astonished the Geputy jailer as he dis- robed. He wore two coats, three vests, seven pairs of trousers, all ragged, and five remnants of shirts. It was thought he was insane, but County Physician Con- verse, who examined him, entertains a dif- ferent opinion. ~~ AUCTION SALES.
