Many cities cannot mus ter a tax list of $13,000,000, so that this town would be conspicuous above all others for wealth and In completeness of the details that make the material side of life a Joy It would be unrivaled. Some of Its houses would be con structed for one family exclusively, and others would be arranged in single rooms and In suites. All would be fur nished in the most luxurious fashion. In the central warhouse of the town's steward would be found a greater as sortment of supplies for the cuisine than in any public market in the world. There would be a row of cook shops, each devoted to the prepara tion of a special course, ranging from the soups and entrees and roasts to the pastries and coffee. There would be half a dozen big banquet rooms and ballrooms, several music rooms and a well-appointed theater or two. The town would have, of course, a tele graph office, a complete telephone sys tem and some means of rapid transit to every house. Enormous boilers would supply the heat, and an electric light plant would furnish the Illumina tion. There would be an Ice plant large enough to manufacture fifty tons a day. There would be silversmith, blacksmith and tinsmith shops, elec trical repair and machine shops, flor ists, hairdressing rooms for men and For Nursery Emergencies women, Turkish baths, upholstery and furniture shops, decorators and seam stresses, a 6team laundry, a mesaengei service, a printing oCDce, a wine cel lar, with half a million dollars worth of choice vintages, and a clubhoust with billiard and reading rooms and cafes. The town would be policed da and night by a dozen private detec tives, and it would have a well-trained fire department. There would be a bank, ever who&e counters would pass millions of dollars each year, and o central executive oRlce with scores ol clerks and bookkeepers and auditors. The proprietor of this town would as sume all the housekeeping cares of hi3 1,500 tenants, and many of his 1,590 employes. He would provide amuse ments and act as the court cf- last resort. It would seem as if the man who was rash enough to attempt the management of such a town, staking his fortune on the issue, must neces sarily fall; but as a fair Illustration it is not overdrawn. Its parallel Is found in a compact form, with no fea tures missing and many added, in the modern big hotel that has reached the highest development in New York. Ainslee's Magazine.

The problem of the Western town now is to make amends for the past and to build up a substantial and per manent prosperity that shall make val ues steady and the future assured. A few years ago the rivalry was for a surplus; now it is for a mere suffi ciency. In the early days were started too many lodges, too many churches, too rr.any stores, too many newspapers. Now it Is not difficult and indeed it is common, for the merchants to agree tc support only two of three papers to a town of 3000 population or more, where formerly tnere were five or six.

I I In the homes of many practical mothers a plan is being carried out that Is said to have started ia the nurseries of England. There is found upon the wall a large card, measuring perhaps two by three feet. At the top of the card are written the name and address of the nearest doctor, or the one to be called, in case of accident. Beneath are the words: "What to do, and how to do it." Then there are a list of the accidents that are liable to happen to children, and the remedy for each. Bite3, and swallowed but tons, bleeding nose, burns, convulsions, bruises, sprain:., and poisons, with the ever dreaded croup, are all provided for; and in a box beneath the card are kept absorbent cotton, court plas ter, lint, arnica and various necessar ies that are only to be us in case of accident. When general chaos reigns, and even the most intelligent have lost their wits, this card is in valuable. To be able to read and un derstand it, might be one of the tests used in engaging a nurse maid. Print ed cards are more easily read than those that arc written, and one ener getic mother who believes in living up to her knowledge, after carefully pre paring one of these cards and sub mitting It to a well known physician, had a number of duplicates printed for distribution in the nurseries of her friends. She claims that the apprecia tion and enthusiasm with which they were received opened her eyes to the fact that they are one of the greatest needs in the nurseries of young mothers. In the city where a doctor can be called on very short notice, they are not so important, but in sub urban and country homes such a nur sery card may prove of the greatest value many times in the course of a year. Philadelphia Times. Settlement of Franco-Prussian War. The indemnity exacted of France in settlement of the war between that country and Germany in 1870, amount ed to five milliards of francs about $1,000,000,000. One-tenth of this sum was paid on July 14, 1871; two mil liards were paid on March 7, 1872; two milliards more on May 5, 1S73, ten months in advance of the time fixed; and the last installment was paid on Sept. 5 of the same year.

Scientific and Safe Duel Writer Says Dueling Is Less Dak.isJerois Than Bicycling. There is little danger to be feared now In accepting a challenge to fight a duel. According to statistics which have been gathered at considerable trouble, it would appear that dueling, though a barbarous and stupid prac tice, is less dangerous than bicycling or ordinary railroad traveling. Only 155 out of 3,914 duels in twenty years in Italy were fought with rapier or foils, 3,501 were fought with the sabre, 244 with pistols, and 14 with rifles or other arms. Of the 7,828 duelists 5,090 were wounded, and only 20, or one per annum died. The person who compiled these figures further says that the tem perature has considerable to do with the frequency of duels, perhaps be cause intending duelists are afraid of catching cold. In France, where "the code" is resorted to more frequently than anywhere else, the duel ha3 al most reached the altruistic stage. Par is duelists of late have taken to the sterilizing of their swords, and now it would be considered as reprehensible for a duelist as it is for a surgeon to omit "the usual antiseptic precau tions." In a newspaper story of a re cent duel between young Daudet, the son of the novelist,, and a journalist cf Paris named Richard, it is said that after the first attack the point of Dau det's sword accidentally touched the ground, when the seconds intervened and stopped the contest until the blade could be disinfected. If this practice should spread to the armies of the world we might be treated to the spec tacle of two great opposing bodies of troops engaged in sterilizing their weapons before beginning a battle. Tricks of Peanut Tenders. Boys who sell peanuts in the grand stands at the baseball grounds are never discouraged if there is "nothing doing" in their line until after the fifth inning. Patrons of the game do not begin to feel "peekish" until after 5 o'clock, and then the peanut boy be gins to work diplomatically. If he sells one bag in a row of men he does not pass on to the next isle, but waits in the back seats until his first cus tomer begins to eat peanuts. In a minute or two men who never had any thought of buying peanuts beckon to him to come forward. Usually his basket is empty before he reaches the next aisle and he goes back for a fresh supply. One bag of freshly roasted peanuts in the hands of a man who eats them as though he enjoys them is sure to create an appetite for a dozen more bags among his neighbors. Pencil Sharpeners. Between the large crank-operated pencil-sharpener and the small pocket one there has hitherto seemed to be no medium-sized article which had neither cost nor bulk as an objection. A novelty in this line that should prove a great convenience for school and mercantile use has been invented. There is an inner sleeve, in which the pencil is inserted, with a clamp to aid in holding it rigid. The gear wheels are connected in a train between the outer hood and the cutting shaft. The pencil to be sharpened is forced into the sleeve until it strikes the cutter. The operator then grasps the hub in one hand, places the rubber-covered friction ring in contact with a desk or table top and rolls the ring on the plane surface, which rapidly revolves the cutter in connection with the pen cil.
