PEERS AS MAYORS.
Generous 10 Oitice, l irot lyse. for Others to
Follow.
The Earl of Londesborough has de-
clined the honor of acting as Mayor
of Scarborough in the ensiling year.
The present Mayor, Mr. Morgan,
and other members of the 'Lown
Council, visited the Earl and ex-
plained that it was 011e unanimous
wish of the •Town Council that he
should accept the office.
For private reasons, Lord Londes-
borough said it was impossible for
him to undertake the duties; but he
promised to do his best to help the
Council in the event of a royal visit
to the town next year, when it is
hoped the Prince of Wales will open
the new marine drive around the foot
of the Castle Hill.
Lord Londesborough's decision will
cause much disappointment to the
townspeople.
The appeal to Lord Londesborough
has caused the question to be asked
whether peers make ornamental or I
useful mayors, Opinions differ on '
this point, but so far the peers who
have been mayors have always made
themselves popular, and, above all,
have spent plenty of money during
their year of office.
Among peers who have been
mayors are the following:
The Duke of Devenshire, Eas.
bourne.
The Duke of Bedford, Holborn.
The late Marquis of Bute, Cardiff.
The Earl of Warwick, Warwick.
Tho Earl of Derby, Liverpool.
Earl de La Warr, Bexhill.
Lord Windsor, Cardiff,
Lord St. Levan, Devonport.
A civic authority discussed the
question of peers as mayors, and
seemed inclined to think that, on the
whole, peers make' useful mayors.
"As you will notice, all the peer -
mayors have held office in towns in
which they had great interests. Take
the Duke of Devonshire, for instance.
Eastbourne, of which he was mayor,
is practically owned by him, and the
same remark applies to the late
Marquis of Bute, whose interests in
Cardiff were enormous.
"Then, again, we have Lord de La
Warr, at Bexhill, who owns half the
town, and in the case of the Duke of
,Bedford, his vast property in Hol-
born, of which ho was mayor, speaks
for itself,
"The chief reason why boroughs
like a peer for their mayor is that
he will spend plenty of money and
on official occasions adds a special
distinction to his office.
"From a business standpoint, too,
a peer -mayor is a decided acquisition
to the town, as should royalty or
any other very distinguished person
visit it he often pays all the ex-
penses of the visit, and so relieves
the townspeople of a heavy addition
to their rates.
"On the other hand, a peer -mayor
is bad so far as his successors are
concerned, as they cannot hope to
entertain like he did, and in conse-
quence it is always hard to find a
man willing to take office immediate-
ly atter the term of a peer's mayor-
alty has finished."
Like Charles 11.'s Fish Story.
A correspondent of Nature asks for
evidence, if there is any, in support
of the almost universal belief among
drivers, owners and builders of car-
riages that if the distance betw,•tn
the force and hind wheels of vehicles
be increased the draft will become
heavier. No reason is given for the
belief, and no explanation of it is
offered, but a carriage builder to
whom the correspondent in question
submitted a test case in which two
carriages were of exactly the same
height, but with the body of one
much longer than that of the other,
was sure that the former would be
the heavier to move. It seems to us
that this is a platter in which the
facts should he settled by experi-
ments before the theory is investi-
gated. Every one remembers how
Charles II. asked the Royal Society
why if a fish were put into a full
bucket of water the water did not
overflow and when they had exhaust-
ed themselves in learned explanations
suggested that they should get a fish
and a bucket and see what happen-
ed then. There ought to be no diffi-
culty in testing how much power the
long and the short carriage respec-
tively require, and if . it proves to
be the same the question is answer-
ed without more ado.—London Globe.
The Iron Duke and Ills Handwriting.
"As even a trifling detail connected
with the Duke of Wellington cannot
fail to be interesting. I will here
mention," says Lady Bloomfield iu a
paper full of interesting reminiscen-
ces which appears in The Pall Mali
Magazine, "a circumstance related to
me by Lord Charles Wellesley, At
the time niy brother-in-law, Charles,
fourth Earl of IIardwicke, was in
office in Lord Derby's Government,
he had occasion to write on business
to the Duke of Wellington; but his
writino was so illegible the duke
could not read it, so he wrote to
Lord Hardwicke to tell hire so, giv-
ing his letter, as was his custom, to
Mr. Arbuthnot, his secretary, to
copy. But . . . Mr, .Arbuthnot was
unable to decipher the duke's writ-
ing, and in despair took it to Lord
Charles
Wellesley, aleY, who in turn
could
not read it; so there was nothing to
be done but to take the said letter
back to the duke, who took it with
considerable signs of impatience,
looked at it aid then, throwing it
into the fire, exclaiined, ' Ton my
soul, I cannot read it myself!' „
Will Adorn the Chair.
Alderman John Pound, the Lord
Mayor -elect of London, says The
Star, is a packing -case maker in a
large way of business in Leadenhall
street, but he is better known as the

A y'eal<etiioa. with at Pestirrree,
Of all the plants used for food there
is none which bus been so tong known
or has had, so to say, so distinguished
it lineage us asparagus. Its record, in
fact, reaches back to almost the com-
mencement of authentic history, as it
is mentioned by the eomie poet Cra-
tinus, who died about 425 B. C., and
was a contemporary of though slight-
ly older than Aristophanes.
Among the Rowans also the tasty
vegetable was held in high esteem,
Cato the eider—not the gentleman who
was of opinion that Plato reasoned
well, but his great-grandfather, who
Insisted upuw the destruction of Car -
tinge and who was born 243 B. C.—
wrote a work, which is still extant,
"De Re Rustica," au& in it he treats at
length of the virtues and proper culti-
vation of asparagus. Pliny also in
his "Natural history" (about 60 A, p.)
has much to say on the subject. "Of
all the productions of your garden," he
feelingly observes, "your chief care
will be your asparagus," and he de-
votes several chapters and parts of
chapters to its many beneficent quali-
ties and the best. modes of raising it.
Indian Mothers and Dolls.
When an Indian girl dies her mother
often substitutes a doll for her lost lit-
tle one. She fills the empty cradle with
feathers, arranged in the form of the
child, and carries this around with her
wherever she goes, talking to it and
caressing it as she would her loving
child.
If she does not do this she ties In a
tight bundle the toys, clothes and arm-
lets which belonged to her little one
and, fastening this to the cradle board,
carries it as she bad formerly done her
child. The Ojibways call these "unlucky
dolls," because they represent the dead.
The reason the Indian mother carries
her "doll" in this. pathetic way is be-
cause she thinks that the little dead
child is too small to find its way to
paradise. By substituting the doll it
will help along until the dead baby has
grown large enough to make its way
to the spirit land alone. At least this
is what the sad Indian mother believes.
Animal Arithmetic.
A certain Mr. Tiniotieff was the hap-
py possessor of a dog that was able to
calculate with precision. One day,
having been fed a large platter of
chicken bones, he found twenty-six
left over when his appetite was satis-
fied. These he proceeded to bury care-
fully in different places, as all dogs do.
The day following he dug up and ate
twenty-five, went to sleep, suddenly
woke up, apparently with something
on bis mind, hesitated a moment, dug
up his twenty-sixth bone, ate it and
went to sleep, this time soundly.
Birds count well. They usually know
the number of eggs they are hatching.
EIere is something odd: A. half tamed
nightingale was always given three
beetles as a sort of dessert. If he re-
ceived but two he waited impatiently
for the third. If three were given to
him he ate them up and flew away
without waiting for more.
Remedy For Burns.
For a dry burn, carron oil. Shake the
bottle, saturate a soft cloth with the
mixture and lay over the burn. Then
cover closely with cotton batting or
flannel to keep out every bit of air and
secure the, whole with a light bandage.
Burns may also be treated by a thick
application of any bland oil, vaseline,
sweet oil, castor oil, butter, cold cream
or any fat not rancid, excepting glyc-
erin, which is too irritating. Soft pow-
ders may also be dusted on—flour, laun-
dry or corn starch. For a burn by scald
or steam apply a dressing of saturated
soda.
Moon Phases.
The phases of the moon may be ex-
plained by the fact that the moon is
a dark spherical body which shines
only by reflected light. The new moon,
popularly so called, is seen only when
the sky is sufficiently dark to present
a complete outline of the disk. This
illumination is due to the light which
comes first from the sun, is reflected
to the earth and back to the moon and
thence to the earth. What we really
see iii the earth light shining ou the
moon.
Keeping In Touch With Oneself.
It's good to have Money and the
things that looney will buy, but it's
good, too, to check up once in awhile
and make sure you haven't lost the
things that money won't buy. When
a fellow's got what he set out for in
this world he should go off into the
woods for a few weeks now and them
to make sure he's still a man and not
a plug hat and a frock coat and a wad

Dean Hole's Wit.
On one occasion Dean IIole, the well
known English clergyman, with Mrs.
Hole, tended at Dover. much exhaust-
ed, after a rough crossing of the Eng-
lish channel. While waiting for the
train the dean pored over the railway
regulatio,r a, "Ab," be said, addressing
the statihn inspector, "It's one consola-
tion after such a crossing and this
tiresome wait that we go back at half
price." "1 don't understand, sir," was
the official's reply. "'There Is no special
reduction." "Oh, yes, there Is," said
the dean. "I've Just been reading all
your notices, and you state that you
take returned empties at much reduced
rate." Once when the dean was play- 1
ing whist for threepenny points he ap-
peared to be very well provided with I
threepenny bits, "Ah," his opponent
rewarked, "have you the offertory with
you?" "What, sir," the dean answered, '
"do you recognize your miserable con-
tributions?"
. The Distant Stars.
Speaking roughly, we have reason,
from the data so far available, to be-
lieve that the stars of the Milky Way
are situated at a distance .,etween
100,000,000 and 200,000,000 times the
distance from the sun. At distances
less than this it seems likely that the
stars are distributed through space
with some approach to uniformity. We
may state as a general conclusion indi-
cated by several methods of making
the estimp.te that nearly all the stars
which we can see with our telescopes
are contained within a sphere not like -I
ly to be niuc'h more than 200,000,000
times the distance of the sun.
Granting that all the stars we can
see are contained within this limit,
may there not be any number of stars
without the limit which are invisible
only because they are too far away to
be seen?—Simon Newcomb in Harper's
Magazine.
Too Easy Success.
Success in literature early in a writ-
er's career is often a serious misfor-
tune, writes Julius Chambers in the
Pittsburg Dispatch. I distinctly recall
a conversation with Prank It. Stock-
ton regarding "The Lady or the Tiger?"
that illustrates this point. "Never was
I so near starvation since I began to
write as after the publication of 'The
Lady or the Tiger?' " said Mr. Stock-
ton. "For nearly two years everything
I offered for sale was sent back with
the curt explanation that it did not
compare with that story. 'The Lady
or the Tiger?' was made a standard by
which everything was judged. Prior
to its publication I had trouble in sell-
ing my matter, and that very story had
been offered to every publisher in New
York before it was accepted."
Women Speakers.
Women speak best when they retain
their seats at table, the very fact that
they are standing and facing their au-
diences having a tendency to give the
bravest of women stage fright. Wom-
en orators have the advantage over
men in knowing that their attire will
have much to do with keeping the at-
tention of their audience. A pretty wo-
man in a pretty gown, a fan, a muff, a
jewel, will hold the eyes of the women
listeners even if they do not care much
for the speech.—What to Eat.
An Apt Retort.
In the biography of Dr. Hawtrey, a
famous English schoolmaster, there Is
a description of his unkempt appear-
ance, with a comment which has been
greatly quoted. It is said that he was
scolding for being late at morning les-
sons a boy, who replied that he had
no time to dress. "But I can dress in
tine," said the doctor. "Yes," replied
the boy, "but I wash."
