That Was Expected.

(Bv Associated Press.)
NEW YORK. Dec. II.?There was
prompt and emphatic renewal today
hy both the money market and the
stock market caused by the relief
from the treasury department for
the money stringency which was
anticipated after the market had
closed yesterday. The readjustment
of the price level at the opening
of the stock market was almost
spasmodic In its violence. There
were successive advances by sud?
den inroads of large buying odds at
different periods during the day. The
llrst quotation of money at the
Slock Exchange was 10 per cent.
There was a Hurry to 18 per cent
later in the day, hut the ruling rate
was lower than the opening. S
ling exchange made a sudden re
hound from its rapid fall of yester?
day towards the gold Import point
and the feeling of relief in London
over this relaxation threatened n
strain on that market's resources.
There was a decided expansion
in the volume of transactions at
the stock exchange. The incident
most spoken of today was the (arge
congestion of stock which nre the
recognized favorites for operation
by groups of large capitalists.
The jump in St. Paul was accom?
panied by rumors of an early an
. nottneement of subscription rights to
new stock. Reading and Amalga?
mated Copper were affected by gos?
sip of intended dividend increases
The sub treasury continued to ab?
sorb funds for the market.. $160 000
, being deposited for transfer to New
Orleans.
Profit taking unsettled the late
.market somewhat and the closing
rwas irregular. ?

CUTTLEFISH FARMS.
Wh?r? lilt* <|iioei- ( rrutiirra Are Cul?
tivated (?> lie II lilted,
Dot's any one know Hint cuttlefish
tire cultivated (in farms to be milked?
These ciiltU'lbdi farms lire located on
Hu> coasts of (IronI Britain, and the
tuttlctish are kept in tanks or ponds
to In' milked of their ink, Tin- pond or
tank Is connected wiili (1)0 Hcii by a
pipe, ami 11 tbmisaml ur more cutties
are kept In 11 single one.
They form n most curious sight as
they move about, trailing their long
arms ami staring nut of their bulging
eyes. They are guarded by screens
which prevent them from heilig seared,
for if they are suddenly frightened
they will squirt their mill; Into the
water, and it would therefore be lost.
This iliiitl or milk Is very valuable,
ami 11 cuttle will yield about $;t worth
a year. It Is secreted In a bug which
can lw? opened and closed at will, the
cuttle ejecting the Utlld lo darken the
water so thnt It may escape unseen
when attacked.
The best cuttlelish are procured in
China, where for some reason or other
they produce the best quality of milk.
When the farmer considers It oppor?
tune to milk the cut ties be proceeds by
opening the sluices of the pond and
gently imitating the water. The cut
tics then swim around the pond, and
as soou as- one passes through the
sluice Is closed. The entile passes
down a small channel Into 11 haslii or
mctttl receptacle, und as soon ns It Is
securely there the water Is drained off.
It Is then frightened and nt once
squirts the fluid-from the bug. When
it Is exhausted it is lifted out, the milk
Is collected and the basin prepared for
another.
MODERN CIVILIZATION.

Not long ago while traveling T chune
cil to slop at a village on the river
Itlliiic, where I found an nstoulshlng
number of old people. There were u
dozen over a hundred years of ukc and
many from eighty years old up to the
century mark, yet straight und vigor?
ous. One woman nearly n hundred
years old was earning her living by
picking hops. Her grandchildren were
middle aged. It was quite wonderful.
But there was no mystery about It. It
was merely the effect of a simple life
spent largely in the fields, with plain
diet, consisting of 11 few vegetables
and fruits, little meat, and uatlre beer
and wine for beverages.
Nothing can be more obvious than
that the very complexity of our mod?
ern civilization is shortening our lives.'
But of nil the evils that afttlct us the
worst und most destructive are hurry
and worry. Hurry drives tlie body ma?
chine beyond Its capacity, while worry
racks It Inwardly. Of the two worry
Is probably the worse. This might Ill
deed be called the age of worry. Be?
cause of the intense nervous strain to
which we are subjected we do vastly
more worrying than did our forbears.1

I don't know myself what getting
married feels like, but It cannot be
much more exciting than watching
other people getting married. Indeed,!
I always get something like pulpits-'
tlon of the heart Just before the priest
titters the tiual fateful words, "I de?
clare you man and wife." Half a see-1
end before you were still free. Half a
second after you were bound for the
term of your natural life. Half a sec-'
end before you had only to dash the
book from the priest's hands and put:
your hands over his mouth, and, though1

The origin of the name Fife Is uct
known. One historian tries lo show
that It comes from the Celtic word
voacb, a I'ict, and means tbut the dis?
trict was Inhabited by Pk-ts, but that
is obviously absurd, as Fife was not
specially the home of any of Hie Plot*.]
isli nations. The tradition that finds
greatest favor Is related by a monk,
who states that the first known pos?
sessor of the district which has since
grown into the kingdom of Fife was
ono Flfus Duffus, a famous chieftain
whose date is lost In the mists of an?
tiquity.
He Cheapened Pen?.
Sir Joslnh Mason was, according to
his biography, walking in Bull street,
Birmingham, In the year 1828 when h
saw some steel pens, price 3s. Od. each.
Josiah was a hard up maker of spllf
rings. No sooner bad be seen the pens
than he went home, made some belter
than those in the shop, sent them up to
London and got a large order by re-|
turn. At thirty years of age Mason's I
capital was :i0 shillings. At sixty hoi
had given away ?400,000.

of handsome :i|'|>i>aritiii'<>. witli spread?
ing, fernlike foliage mid large umbels
of white tlowor.s. It was foilllll princi?
pally in Arn hin and Ahysslnla. In
early time* the pcri'iiiue distilled from
it was greatly In requisition for em?
balming.
Herodotus gives a detailed account
of tho ancient mode of embalming, |
which Is perhaps more Instructive thiiu
pleasing, After the body had under?
gone much preparation, which, to spare
your t'eclings. will not he described, it
was tilled with powdered myrrh, cassia
and other perfumes, it was then steep?
ed In na I roil, a strong solution of soda,
for seventy days. After this It was
wrapped In hands of tine perfumed
linen. Hillen red with aromatic gums.
Not only people were thus embalm?
ed, hut the crocodiles of Lake Moorls,
which, after their iiiuninilflcntion, were
d.ruled with ornaments and Jewels
mid laid In one of the subterranean
passages of the great labyrinth with
much pomp ami display. The sacred
cat, Ichneumon and other cherished an?
imals devoutly worshiped by the Kgyp
liillis were embalmed with scrupulous
and fiiniitlenl care, (in days special to
the memory of the dead the mummies
were newly sprinkled with perfume.
Incense was offered before them and
their heads anointed with fresh oil?In
the same spirit as we lay new blooms
Upon the graves of our dead.

Whistler was certainly a genius, but
he showed some dllllcitity in imparting
his knowledge. His criticisms were of?
ten foggy ami uncertain, anil be hard?
ly ever found words In which to ex?
press himself. It was almost ail Im?
possibility to develop without lieeom
Intr u slnve and copying him lu every
way. Witli a majority of Hie students
this was a dangerous method, If one
came with a spark of originality it was
extinguished immediately by the dom?
inating personality of the master, lie
could sec art only from his own stand?
point, and he insisted on all of us using
the same palette and the same brushes
us himself ami on our seeing all ob?
jects with his eyes. The result to tin
ordinary outsider was ridiculously mo?
notonous,
1 well remember a Frenchman who
wanted lo Join the class coming to
view some of Hie studies and then re?
marking, witli mi amused smile. "Yous
nvese beaueoup des petus Whccstlalrs!"
This was perfectly true of the major?
ity, but there were a few matured men
who hardly carried out Whistler's J
formulas ns regards the palette and ?
method, but who, owing to their more
independent attitude, profited much by
the criticisms. Century.

"In Paris only oilC-lifth of the voters
go to the polls mid cast their ballots,"
said an American who has lived In
Paris as a business man for several
years past. "This Is not because they
cannot vole, but because they do not
care to. Everybody In the city I? In?
terested in politics, but when the lime
to vote conies few care to go to the
polls. The man who wins Is most
often the man wdm promises every-'
, thing. For Instance. In my district'
) last lime n mini was elected who]
promised to put a new shed on the
market. I know of another deputy
I who was kept In office fifteen years he-,
ennse he promised to add an extra sar-l
dine to the dally rations of the sol?
diers. There nre so many soldiers that'
: that mode a big difference. They did
not get the sardine, hut he continued

In ancient times there stood In the'
citadel of Athens three statues of Mln
I erva. The first was of olive wood and.'
j according to popular tradition, had
fallen from heaven. The sreond was
of bronze, commemorating the victory
of Marathon, und the third of gold and
Ivory?a great miracle of art lu the'
days of Pericles. Ami thus In the.
citadel of time stands man himself. I
In childhood, shaped of soft and dedi?
cate wood, just fallen from heaven:!
In manhood a statue of bronze, com-!

Temper.
Temper Itself is not a bad quality.
It Is not to be destroyed, as we some?
times say. Without Icmper a bar of
steel becomes like lead. A man with?
out temper is weak and worthless.
We are to learn self control. A strong
person Is one who has n strong tem?
per under perfect mastery. There is a
deep truth here?that our mistakes and
our sins. If we repent of them, will
help In the growth and upbuilding of
our character.
