Most Immigrants Land in New York
Ernest Ingersoll writer for t Nich
olas a paper on the Greater New York
entitled Reasoning Out a Metropolis
Mr Ingersoll says The merchants of
New York sent to the continent of Eu
rope more ships than the merchants of
other cities who traded mainly with
Great Britain so that this city was
better known throughout Europe and
her vessels were the handiest for emi
grants from France Germany and Hob
land Agents of the New York mer
chants and of the Government who
were seeking and encouraging immi
gration could show that this port was
the most advantageous landing place
for a man who was going on West and
the sea captains explained that it was
the safest and quickest port to make
because the course lay -south of the
stormy foggy region north of Cape
Cod and the city was much closer to
the open sea than either Philadelphia
or Baltimore At any rate immigra
tion increased in favor of New York as
time went on and the stream of
ing people swelled until in the decade
from ISSi to 1894 it amounted to about
half a million of immigrants a year
500GGG arriving in 1890 alone no
counting those from Canada and Mex

Care of Glassware
Glassware will last longer and look
better if the following hints as to its
care and preservation are regarded
Tepid water the best castile or other
pure soap and a stiff brush are the first
essentials After wasbingand rinsing
place the cut glass in a box wood saw
dust This will absorb the moisture in
the cuttings Next remove the saw
dust from the plain surfaces with a
soft cloth By following these direc
tions the original clearness and sparkle
of the glass will be maintained Shot
should not be used in carafes cruets
toilet articles and similar articles It
is very apt to scratch the glass and
thus mar its beauty Prosaic potato
peelings are the best aids Let them
remain in the glassware over night and
then rinse out with a little tepid water
A very important point is to avoid sud
den changes from extreme heat to ex
treme cold and vice versa A pitcher
or tumbler which has been filled with
ice water if plunged at once into hot
Avater will be apt to crack Use tepid
water and the risk of breakage is
avoided The sudden change from heat
to cold is just as dangerous Glass
ware should never be removed from a
closed cabinet where it has become
heated and brought immediately into
contact with a cold substance Cool
the glass for a time in water before
subjecting it to the extreme tempera
ture

NO WOMAN IS EXEFPT
Itcmlarityis a natter of importance
In every womans life Much pain is
however endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming when
in truth it is all wrong- and indicates
derangement that may cause serious
trouble
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time
The foundation of womans health is
a perfectly normal and regular per
formance of natures function The
statement we print from Miss Ger
trude Sikes of Eldred Pa is echoed
in every city town and hamlet in this
country Read what she says
Dear Mrs Pixkiiam I feel like a
new person since following your ad
vice and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me My troubles were pain
ful menstruation and leucorrhcea I
was nervous and had spells of being
confused Before using your remedies
I never had any faith in patent medi
cines I now wish to say that I never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menstruation as Ldia E Pink
hams Vegetable Compound also would
say that your Sanative Wash has cured
me of leucorrhcea I hope these few
words may help suffering women
The present Mrs Pinkhams experi
ence in treating female ills is unparal
leled for years she worked side by
side with Mrs Lydia E Pinkham and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business treating by le iter
as many as a hundred thousand ailing
women during a single yeai i
All suffering- women are invited to
write freely to Mrs Pinkham at Lynn

IRISH ACTOR WAS SCARED
McKcc Rankin Telia a Good Joke on a

Stnge fright is ordinarily an emotion

It was in a mining town in Colorado
We were playing a piece in which the
servant is discovered dusting the furni
ture etc Well I discovered afterward
that it was a custom for all persons
who had no reserved seats to take any
vacant chair the minute the curtain
went up On this night in question the
body of the house was nearly filled
while back of the rail there were stand
ing eight or ten deep miners cowboys
and all that rough element found in
that territory waiting to get a good
seat for an admission The curtain rose
and a little Irishman I had playing the
part of the servant had just commenc
ed his opening speech Six oclock and
master not at home or something of
that sort when the entire mob at the
back started down the aisles with a
rush for the vacant seats He looked
up saw them coining pelL jnell toward
the stage gave one yell and fairly flew
off the thinking they were to do
him some bodily harm and was out of
sight in a minute The play went on
but it was some time before we found
the Irishman way down behind a pile
of scenery He finished the perform
ance but he was badly scared all the

The Coldest Spot
The coldest region of the globe that
of Werkojank in Siberia where the
lowest temperature of 090 degrees
Fahrenheit has been observed and the
mean of January is 048 degrees is in
habited by about ten thousand five hun
dred people of the native races In a
large part of this region the air is so
dry and winds are so rare that the in
tensity of the cold is not realized Fur
ther east there are sometimes terrible
Etorms In the summer time the tem
perature sometimes rises to 8G degrees
in the shade while it freezes at night
The latter part of this season is often
marked by copious rains and extensive
Inundations Vegetation is scanty
There are no trees The people hunt
fur bearing animals fish and raise cat
lie and reindeer It requires about
eight cows to support a family four
being milked In the summer and two
In the winter
The cattle are fed on hay In the win
ter and are allowed to go out occasion
ally when it is not too cold their teats
being carefully covered with felt Milk
is the principal food occasionally sup
plemented with hares which are quite
abundant The houses are of wood
covered with clay and consist of one
room in which the people and their an
imals live together The wpnlthier
classes are better provided with lodg
ing and food The people are very hos
pitable but excessively punctilious con
cerning points of honor such as the
place at table
Swedish Female Shylock
Stockholm has a female usurer and
fhe is the worst usurer in the capital
Her victims are chiefly cadets at the
arni3r and navy academies whose pock
et money gives out a long time before
the next remittance can be expected
She lives in an elegant residence and
to a glass of champagne she generally
succeeds in persuading her young clients-
to sign papas or uncle name to
the note merely as a matter of form
As a rule papa or uncle has passed
through the naval or army academy
when a young man and knows the mad
emoiselle from the days lie sowed his
wild oats consequently the drafts or
notes do not go to protest
Telegraph in the Suez Canal
A most ingenious system Is employed
by which the director of the Suez ca

A model is placed in the office at Port

from headquarters by means of the
telegraph the position of each ship
being marked by a figure on the model
It is thus made easy to arrange for yes-
