A Co-Operative Store in New York.
A co-operative association, kow in
successful operation in New York city,
exhibits some features of interest in
showing another method. In Novem
ber, lS7r. thirty gentlemen of means
and iosition united under the laws of
the State and opened a co-operative
store on Sixth Avenue for their own
use and benefit. Each member con
tributed one hundred dollars in cash,
and, under the management of a Board
of Directors, a competent manager and
four assistants were engaged at rea
sonable wages. A small store was
hired, a choice stock of groceries pur
chased, a few simple rules prepared. and
the store went into oeration. By these
rules, each member makes all his pur
chases at the store, and either pays cash
or ojens an account that must be paid
on the first day of each month. The
member h:is nothing to do beyond this.
Lie pays in his hundred dollars, fore
goes all interest in it and expects no
bonus or dividend of any kind. The
profit comes in the reduced cost of
the goods. Once each month the busi
ness of the store is examined by an
Advisory Board, and, if there is.a profit
over the expenses, the prices tire lowered
sufficiently to extinguish it. If there is
a loss, the prices are raised sufficiently
to cover it during the next month. The
experiment has so far, worked smoothly
and proved a success. The store not
only supplies the members with the best
goods, but delivers them freeattheir
residences at a very material reduction
from the retail market rates. The st ore
fcelf is perfectly plain, W$ is weep. I
tionally neat and attractive. There L
no gilding nor display, not even a sign,
except a card on the door. It Ls only
open by daylight, and is only visited by
the memlcrs. No member is liable be
yond the S100 invested on joining the
association, and any one may withdraw
at any time by giving sufiicient notice,
and may then recover his money in the
form of a gradual abatement on his
monthly purchases. Charles Jiurtiard ;

nuts, etc. They are worse than the beg
gars of Rome, tlirusting themselves in
upon every one like the old hackmen of
Niagara, and making life a burden to
the rural visitors. They should be
brought up with a round turn. An occa
sional employe, too, forgets his business,
and tries extortion, as for instance, de
manding a fee in return for any infor
mation that may be asked of him.
Visitors should promptly report these
cases, and see to it that justice is meted
out to the offender. The eiaikK arr

You know all about the IrtttMto?. a tt

parts of the Exhibition, it t wot K

that Ntarc at you. ami there are man)
show-cases w hose pnncljial attractlut
are the :uthiiigness of their intortor.
Workmen are busy in several kiiHuex
and Uie ladi. m cliar,;e of the jibire are
hurrying aUmt in an mdetinite MVt of
way, :is though the have more cm Uieir
hands tlian they can attend U u
vwiientlv. State ami national Ilnr ar

there has leen an attempt to pwt tiling
fn.m certain cuuntritw where thev eau
le seen togetlier. I had exjccel muck
Ierhnis too much f the Wonuui'
Pavilion; and se I w:is e!Lsap;otuUHi;
but neve-rthe'hrss. I am glad tu say llu
the women have done a great ileal, and
made an exceedingly creditable dttfphty.
They promise to hae much imre when
all their goods are in. and I ma tuiM
something more to sa ef litem in n
week or two. In the sltow-cnses. at
present, there w a great deal ef lace ami
rnibreiielery the kind of work that )mu
leen the province" of feminine fingers
from time immeuuorial. This work
comes from all ciHinlrnrs, and frmn
weimen in all ranks of life; much of ti
is frenn theise who wrought fur pastime,
but much more, and the U-st part of it
is from women whose work is thuir
means ef live'lihooL Three of the
English I 'rine-e-ssers I Jeatriir, - bee', and
Hele'iia have contributed to the Exhi
bition; their weirk, good enough in it
way, is nothing extraordinary, and I
presume the I loyal htdies cannot afford
the time ne-cessary to a thorough know I
eelge of the; Use of Ihe needle. The
IJelgian lace are the Irest. am! thev
eoine fnnn professional workers; but
there are some sjH-einn'ns of Ameruitti
work that give a sharp competition to
Urussels preduct "We have something
heTe from the hands of the Queen." said
Mrs. Gov. Noyes, of Ohm, as she ld me
to a case containing some twenty-fh e or
thirty etchings made by Vie-toria Uegina.
Mont of these that I saw were gi-d; a
few woultl le etpe'ii to riticism em the
score of drawing, ami semie ef them on
that of shading. Hut we don't ofte-n ge-t
anything eif this sort from I .'ova! albums,
and it won't tlo to lie too particular. One
is reminded of Dr. Jethuson's remark
about the deg that danced em his hind
legs, that it was a wry por sent ef
dancing, ami you wemdered.not that the
le;ist danced badly, but that he danced
at all. lint please don't seiitl a ceipy of
this pajKT to the (jueen, er I may never

or spend a week at Balimiral.
There is a fine lot eif artificial Mowers
from Brazil some ef them made ef
feathers, like the fiowers in the Brazil
ian De'partment in the Main Building.
Canada se'iuls some painted velvet that
look -ery pretty, and cannot In ex
tinguished from embroider when you
are a few stejs away, swede-n nnids
some pretty work in fish scales and
bone; and it also sends figure's of a
group of peasants, which never fails to
attract a crowel of sjKct'itors. A young
man is engage-d in pulling a flower to
pieces, to ascertain whether his girl
loves him or not She is looking over
his shoulders, quite as anxious, prob
ably, as he is, to know what the Uower
will say. In the Japanese show-case
there are some fans and fire-screens, and
also senne embroidered garments of vari
ous kimls. There are also some sjKfi
mens of painting after the Oriental
style, but none of them are more re
markable than the works of art in the
Japanese section in the Main Building.
The Massachusetts, the Pittsburg, and
the Cincinnati Schools of Isign, have
some excellent work; as I cannot go
into them in detiil without the risk of
rousing that jeculiarly-feininine qual
ity known as envy (no envious man
was ever heard of). I won't indulge in
particulars. The real truth is, tliat by
the time I got around to these things, I
was too tired and too much in a hurry
to give them any more than a passing
glance, and, until I have leaked at these
more carefully, it would be unjust for
me to attempt any comparison. Cor.

iUmpmrm f the BJr.
Considering the bad weather, the at
tendance is encouraging. The crowds
continne to prefer the Art Halls and
the Main Building. People who come
for amusement find more attractions in
the latter places tlian anywhere ehvf
with its wonderful variety of interest
ing objects and its coneserts twice a day ;
and those who set out to study the Ex
hibition in detail usually begin there.
The large number of visitors to the art
galleries, I confess, surprises me, and
seems to argue that the art-loving class
is in much greater proportion to the
whole attendance than one would im
agine. They find out the best pictures,
too, and congregate before them, leav
ing unnoticed the walls devoted to
mediocrity. Critics would not how
ever, be pleased at the attention be
stowed upon the Italian sculpture in
the annex, but the reason is not far to
seek. These statues of children laugh
