JAY GOULD. How the Great Railroad Spec? ulator Lives. The Oost of Maintaining bis Oity and Country Establishments. Mr. Gould's mansion on the northwest corner of Fifth avenue nnd FoKy-soventk Wrcot, say s a Now York letter to the New J0r.lcans Pitayun?, is a plain-looking dou? ble hrown-stone house, the interior of which is literally palatial. There arc half a j million dollars' worth of paintings on the j ?walls, and the furniture and decorations | nrc of the costliest description. The , puitc on tho second floor, occupied hy j the heads of the family, consists of bed- ! room, boudoir, dressing-room nnd UnlH* | room, decorated chiefly in pale blue nnd C-ilver. Across the hall, -Miss Nellie, the .only daughter, has a similar suite in pink | and white. On the third Boor there is a study and a InrgO nursery for the thrco small hoys, Edward, Harold and Krank, I whose tutors are phut $2,000, $4,000 and $1.S00 a year respectively. Ocorgo Gould's apartments arc on the same floor, while the servants occupy the floor above. The butler receives $1,000; butler's assistant; $100; Mr. Gould's valet, $000; hca'tb'-cook and assistant) j $1,000, ami housekeeper, $1,000 a year. Two laundresses, two chambermaids, a parlor maid, two waiting maids, two la? dy's maids, and two kitchen girls aro | paid from $15 to $'-10 each per month. The food in the servants' hall is entirely different from that of the family table. Mrs. Gould spends two hours a day with her younger boys, and they read only what has been inspected by her. Sinco she joined the Forty-second street Pres? byterian church several years ago, she has boon liberal in religious benefactions. Miss Nellie, a graduate of Mmc. Reed's famous school, is perfecting herself in music at a cost of $.V) per lesson. She has an allowance of $0,000 a year for her ?wardrobe. The Gould stable, on Forty- ? fourth street, is a handsome building of | brick, with browit-stono trimmings and plate-glass windows. Six h?rst? are kept in it during the winter, and a closed CttT ringc, n landau, antl two coupes. The Mnil consists of a coachman, two foot- ? men, two grooms and two stablemen, I nnd their wages range from $45 a month j down. The expense of keeping up the i Stable is $0,000 n year. Mr. Gould's country seal at Irvingtnn was considered by its original owner, GeorgeDawson Merrill, the most attrac? tive, elegaiit, and ' thoroughly equipped summer residence in the country. Mr. Gould paid* $200,000 for tho property in 1880, aiidii is'now worth $l,ooo,ono,ooo at a low estimate. The house is Gothic in style and is 8,000 feet from the Hud? son river, commanding n magnificent view. It has twenty rooms above (lit? basement. On the second floor is a line nrl gallery, extending tho cut ire depth of the house. "Mangold, the steward at Irvington, has been In Mr. Gould's em? ploy over twenty years and receives a salary of $-,">00. The lawn about the house is ninety-live acres in extent, and the macadamized road leading to the en? trance is a quarter of a mile long. There nrc in the estate 510 acres, 200 of which are wooded. The live stock consists of twenty horses, as many cows, a drove of Southdown sheep, a lot of blooded fowls. Eighteen men are 011 the place constantly and in summer the number is nearly one hundred. The hot-houses and conserva? tory cover a space 1100 feet long nnd -150 feet wide, and with their contents are valued at $2f>0,000. At a fair estimate it costs Mr. Gould $3S0 per day to keep up his Irvington place. The taxes on it amount to SfO?O a month. Mr. Gould paid $100,000 for his steam yacht Atalanla, and to run the same costs liim $750 a month for wages, $200 a month for coal, repairs, etc., and $s()0 a month for general expenses when he is aboard with his family. Besides the lif tecn sailors and five officers forming the Crew, there are four cooks and a baker at $10 a month each, with two waiters, a valet, a lady's maid and a parlor maid. There are separate dining-rooms in the yncht for the family, the officers and the servants and sailors. Breakfast is served from 0 to 11, luncheon at 2, tea and ices nt '1, and dinner at 8. George Gould's allowance before he attained the dignity of partnership with his father was $10, 000 a year. His young brothers have $5 a week apiece for pocket money. Glycerine Out of Distillery Dregs. "Wo are getting an excellent, article of glycerine, out of distillery dregs now," said a manufacturing chemist, "and as soon as the fact get-, to be generally known the refuse of the worm of the still will be worth more than it ever wns be? fore. Glycerine is a constant product of the alcoholic fermentation of saccharine matter, and all fermented drinks contain quantities of it. In the distillation of liquids containing alcohol the glycerine docs not free itself from the 'mother,' or dregs, not being volatile like the alcohol. The glycerine is taken from the mother liquor by the ordinary chemical methods, and super heated steam is then brought to act in the residuum, which removes the impurities aa.l leaves a choice quality of glycerine. The dregs are used very extensively in the manufacture of glyce? rine in France, but they have not come iuto much use in this country as yet." Whore Ho Would Bo. Teacher?"Johnnie, do you know the nsturc of an oath?" Johnnie?"Ycs'm. It is something that a man gives when he wants to bo be? lieved." Teacher?"That's right. Now, let us havo it illustrated Johnnie, suppose your father should swenr to your mother that ho would be at home at 10 o'clock in tho evening. Where would he bo at that hour?" Johnnie?"In Tim Doogan's barroom." x-jim OrlMM ITEMS OP IftffeftfiSf, Profit by others' success and failure and you got a reliable experience- at less than club rates.

Can Consumption Im Cured T We li-ive hu often noon fatal results follow tho declaration that it can l>o cured, that wo lmvo unconsciously Bottled down In the belief that, tliis disease mast necessarily prove fatal. It is trao Hint occnsioniilly a community has witnessed nn Isolated case of what may ap? propriately lio termed spontaneous reeovery, but to what combination of fnvorablo circum? stances tliis re nil ws* lino none have hitherto lieen found nble lo determine. We have now the gratifying fnct to announco tliat the process by Which nature effects this wonderful chango is no longer n mystery to Hie medical profession, and that tho chnngos. brought about in tho system under favorable circumstances by intrinsic causes may bo mado as certainty and more cxpediliously by the u(>0 of the proper remedy. In other words, nature is imitated and assisted. Tuberculous matter is nothing moro or less than nourishment Imperfectly organized. Now, if wo can procure tho organization of this fowl material fo that through the process of elective affinity it may take Ha plncoin tho system, wo can cure the disease. This is just what Piso's Curo for Consumption docs. 'It arrests at once the progress of thedisoaso by preventing, tho further supply of tulierculous matter, for while the system is under its in lluetiee all nourishment is organized nnd as? similated. It thus controls cough, cxpcctnrn lion, night-sweats, Intel to fever, and all other characteristic symptoms of Consumption. Many physicians are now using this medi? cine, nnd nil write that it comes f ully up to its recommendations ami inakesConsnmptioa one . 1 the diseases thoy ean readily curo.

I troughs from a simple, cold, two or three do:-es of too medicine have been found sufllclcnl to remove Iho trouble. So in nil diseases of Hie throat nnd lungs, with symptoms simulating thoso of Consumption, I'lso's. Cure Is the only infal? lible remedy. The following letter recommending Piso's Cure for Consumption, is a fnlrs.implo of the certilicntos received daily by the proprietor of tills medicine: At BIOS, N. Y? Dec. 20, 1r.V..

Bugg, and, though perfected too lat? to do any work on the Into crop, will bi put in the field to test its capacity on tho next one. Tract distributors in Now York City complain that thousands of tracts art being distributed throughout the tono ment-houso districts and along short printed in imitation of tho gennino ro ligiovts ones, and bearing titles Buch at "Be Saved," "Salvation for All," and the like, whioh, after n page or two ol religious argument, run off into olo quent patont-modicino advertisements. Among those who called upon thi President, the othor day, was ? little man with a big pnir of opera glosses, which ho purposed leveling at Me Cleveland as soon as he entered the room. Ho waited impatiently, bu| when tho President did appear the lib. tlo man was yanked into lino by tba. ushers, had shaken the Executive hand, and was out in tho corridor boforo hi had time to think of the opera glasses. Mus. Gladstone is described by Americans who hnvo met her as a plain looking woman, although she is ol cottrso p08sossed of much natural re? finement. Her features, liko those ol so many English matrons, are heavy, nud almost common, nud, ns sho pos? sesses not tho least tnct of softening her aggressive outlines by dress, slid hbows to tho woi"3t possiblo advantage. Sho is ovou worso tlrossod thnn most of her countrywomen, but is, with nlf theso poculinriticB of tnsto and style, o most excellent woman and otio who ii Well beloved_ No Chance fjr Prodigal Daughters., If tho prodigal son had been a prod? igal daughter thero would hnvo boom no fitted calf killed. Sho would have crawled in nt tho back door, and on hi r knees begged simply for a crust nnd shelter, knowing that these, if ac? corded nt nil, would he accorded most grudgingly. Sho would hnvo kn?wii, if the parents were w lliug to ki J the fatted calf, that tho neighbors)? would not como to the feast. Thai opinion of centurion would have borno on hnr with stt^h crushing we'ght as to cause hor to hide upon tho approach of^. her old-time frieuds had thoy desired to approach. Tho women of tho neigh? borhood wou'd havo refused to moot hor. And of tho men? They would probably havo been willing to rooet her, hut how few of them would havo mot her with manly intent'on of up? lifting nnd upholding her? Not ono out of fifty. The great bulk of them would havo mot hor with tho intention of dragging her still lower. This is ? truthful statement of woman's position as compared with man's. Man is an important factor in the household, in sociotv, and in the stato. Thero is much ro;oicing when a man child Is horn. lie is worth sacrificing for; ho is worth forgiving when ho slips from tho pnlh of rectitude. But his sister is of less importance. Sho makes a mis? step and is lost. Sho is of no valne to the state; she is not n money-producing factor in the household; sho is a de? pendant and adds to the family cares, and when sho falls sho is hardly worth laving. If she attempts to rcfo m what has she to roform to? It is felt by hor iclf nnd her friends that sho nover had tny indepouden o to lose, and, there? fore, sho has none to regain.?Helen Will man a._ The understanding is lowered from issocialion with inferiors.
