They comprise almoat every European nationality, but the majority come from Polend, Scandinavia and Germany. It is interesting to study the different types of feces and the unfamiliar sound of their con - venation. Immigrant trains are generally detained in thie city for some time, and it is a joy to the travel -tired creatures to be able to get out and stretch their limbs on the platform. Often they stop over night in London, awaiting a morning train, and it is a picturesque spectacle to see the men, women and children huddled together on the benches asleep. Nearly all the men are married and have families. A stalwart couple from Norway, who got off to ask directions about the train last night, had eight youngsters, ranging from ten years down, and all seemed happy despite their grimy surroundings. Saturday night, the 14 -months -old son of a German immigrant and his wife died between Woodstock and this. city.

A large tree is found in Mexico, but more especially in the State of Tabasco, known as the Jocolio (eheocarpus Atnericanna) Majegue, or pea -tree. It grows with such rapidity that it is really dangerous to fields lying waote. Hitherto, the fibre obtained froth the bark of this tree has been used for merely making cordage, its power of resist- ance being equal to that of hemp. Of late, however, triads have been made with this fibre, by the paper -mill at Belem, near Mexico, to use it in the manufacture of paper, and a successful result was obtained. In texture and color, " Jocolin " paper very much resembles parchment, and ia far superior to rag -made papers. In all proba- bility, "Jocolin " will soon be included in the rew materials used for making paper, and, thanks to its polish end fineness, it will, doubtless some day pley an important part in the manufacture of tissues. On a space of one hundred and five acres, 20,086 trees can be cultivated.

The two or three weeks' journey through Albania was by no means enjoyed. They had considerable difficulty getting out of the country on account of having forgotten to have their passports vised: • Corinth and Athens were next visited. In Thessely Stevens became sick from malaria fever, and was compelled to rest for a week. After he bad recovered they went to Smyrna and from there they had planned to go to the H.oly Land. They could not se- cure transportation there, however, as ves- sels had all stopped owing tO a oholera epidemic. They went to Alexandria, in Egypt, instead. Cairo and the pyramids were viewed, and - then a trip was made to Suez and other points of interest. A Bom- bay steamer was boarded November 10. From Bombay the tourists journeyed by rail to Delhi, and thence by wheel to Cawn- pore, a distance of 313 miles. The railway was utilized from Cawnpore to Calcutta.

All Around the World on Their Bicycles. Eugene F. Stevens and George D. Mitchell, two young lawyers of Washington, who started on May 6 last from New York fora pleasant trip around the world on bicycles, arrived at San Francisco, California, on March 29th from China. On starting out they Belled for Queenstoe, and spout ten days trundling in Ireland, then went to Scotland, thence to England. The beet time the 'cyclistmade during their trip was in England, where they accotnplisbed 53 miles in _five hours. The greatest distance ridden by them in one day was 75 rnilee in France, through which country the riding was delightful. The wheelmen reached Bayreuth, in Bavaria, while the Wagner festival was in progress, and listened to grand opera in flannel shirts and knee breeches. Vienna was reached after a journey through the Bohemian forest. Then, by easy stages, they wheeled to Budweiss and then through Syria to Gratz and from there to Croatia. In Herzegovina their first really hard times were encountered. It was dreadfully bot, water was very scarce, and most of the time they were starving. Stevens does not speak with much joy over his journey through Turkey. "There is no Government on the face of the earth worse than that of Turkey," he said. t "Custom officiale were so overcome by sur- prise at the idea of any one co ing to their land for mere pleasure that hey forgot to charge us any duty on our bi ycles. °They insisted, however, that we should be accom- panied by a military guard, and they de- tailed foot soldiers to escort us. At the next town we were met by cavalrymen, who conducted us to a sort of a hotel, where we took a room, and in a few moments nearly every inhabitant of the town was trying to get into our room to get a glimpse at us. We left the foot aseldiers behind on the second day, and horsemen had a tough job keeping up with us. We were obliged to walk the greater part of three days on ac- count of the muddy condition of the road- ways. About every five miles there is a Pitcher's Castoria. A Smoking Tree. Newton, a vigorous mountain town west of Charlotte, North Carolina, has a curosity that bests by a large majority the rain tree, which gained such notoriety in Charlotte in 1886. It is e smoking tree, and baffles all efforts at explanation. It is a white mul- berry tree, and stands on the sidewalk in front of the residence of Levi Yoder. It was brought from 11inoisa year or two ago, and is now about twelve feet high,with a bushy top and many lateral branches. On Sunday one of the family noticed a puff of smoke proceeding from one of the limbs, and, by watching it closely, puffs identical in appearance to cigarette smoke were seeu atarting every now a,nd then all over the tree, sometimes from the leaves, sometines from the bloom, ;ometimee from the bark of the limbs or tru k of the tree. The puffs are at irregular intervals,; sometimes two or three aft once from various parts of the tree, and sometimes they aro several seconds or a half -minute apart. They just seem to come at haphazard from any part of the tree, and as theyetscend in tho air look ex- actly like the smoke from a cigarette. Among the wh te people it is looked upon as a curiosity, an many, of ceurseenake ex- planatiens of the phenomenon, which, p r - haps, are plausible enough to tbeir author, but which carry Very little conviction to the minds of others. But the negroe; don't like the thing at .11. One negro woma , after intently watching the puffs a few m flutes, started off on a rule saying: "1 wo ldn't lib dar fur within'; people better go to dein' better 'bout dis town." A negro man said: " I'm gine stay away from ;at thing, -I can smell de brimstone clear sown to de libery stable." eceipts.

To Cook a Duck—To cook a duck satis- factorily, boil a first until tender ; this can be determined b trying the wing, as that is always a tough part of the fowl.

Pare the yellow rind from a lemon with a very sharp knife, without bruising it or letting the juice escape. Im- bed this in the stuffing near the vent,.teue. just before sending the bird to the table re- move it. Its white, pithy skin will abeorb all the gross particles that would otherwise have escaped through the house, -and it will not impart the slighest flavor to the bird. Make Others Happy. There is a certain class of people who take great satisfaction in saying unpleasant things. They call this peculisrity " speak- ing their minds," or "plain speaking." Sometimes they dignify it by the !Jame of " telling the truth. ' As if truth must be unpleasant in,order to be true. Are there no lovely, eharming, gracious truths in the world? And if there are why cannot people diligently tell these, making others happier for the telling, rather thau hasten to proclaim all the disagreeable ones they can discover. The eum of human misery is always 80. much greater than the sum of human happi- ness that it Would appear the pleioest duty to add 'to thelatter ell we can, and do what lies in our power to diminish the form. Trifles make up this amount, and in trifles lie the best and most frequent opportunities. It may seem a little thing to tell another what is out of place in her appearance or posseesione, but if the information is un- necessary and makes her unhappy, it is cleatly an unkind and unfriendly action. Would it not be well to cultivate the grace of saying agreeable things, even to the extent of huntiog them up aud draggiug them to the light when they happen to be obscure? This power to say pleaeant things —true ones—is an accomplishment which is generally overlooked or left as a mere world- ly matterto light -minded people. But why it should be more Christian -like to utter un- pleasant truths than pleasant ones is a some- what puzzling question. His Own Advertiser. A small, silent man came out of the door of a shoe shop the other day and looked up and down the crowded street. Then he stepped outside and gazed into the window. He seemed fascinated by the display. The crowds went 011 by, but one or two slopped to see what the man was looking at. Still, he stood there and gazed. The crowd around him swelled. Soon the window was almoet hidden from the street. People be- s APRIL 15, 1892.

There are tricks in all trades.—Ex. 4.- A Family Tree. A pretty custom which was at one time common in some parts of Now England, was the setting apart of a "family tree." This tree was not of a dry, genealogical kind, but was always one of the finest in the orchard, selected with a view to its apple -bearing • Abilities, and its beauty. In one little village, many of the orcharcis have trees of this deseription, and the old r Inhabitants can refresh their memories as o --the number of children in the families whi h have occupied farms at different antes, pro- vided the period of occupancy was loeg enough to make the Notting up of a family tree worth while. On one farm there is a large old tree whittle bears seven different varieties of apple; Bald wins, Jeremiabe, Suinuaer Sweetinge, Winter Pippins, Astrechane, Russetts, and Gillyflowers. The grafts on this tree were made, not one at the birth of each childTf the household, as was sometimes the cus- tom, but when each boy or girl grew obi enough to choose his or her special favorite among apples. The tree is now more than sixty years old, and its present owner shows it with great pride, and -gives samples ef its fruit to the children of the neighborhood witha free hand.—Youth's Compcsnion. • What Smoking Does. Twice this spring we have known of bo 8 who failed to secure good positions because they smoked. And it is reported of a prominent merchant that he prompt y rejected an applicant who appeared wi a cigarette in his mouth, saying to him : "The next time you want o place do not go into a house smoking one of these things." If all employera would take a eimilar stand, it would have more influents upon boys than any amount of legis!e.tiee act, or of appeal from parents and pul- pit: In another instance we heard of a young girl who applied for, and secured, a situation aa book-keeper, which had been deeied her brother becauae he was addicted to the use of cigarettes. These cases furnish a practical argument againat smoking whieb, if more general, would rouse boys to see evhst they aro in clanger of losing if they persist in the harmful and expensive habit. —Congregationalist.
