ABOUT GOOD CIGARS.

Some Familiar Names of Cigars—How
Men Act When They Choose and Light

Common Unaware Smokers.
Do you smoke? If you do, why not at待 before, have a little chat about cigars, cigarettes and smokers. But I don't advise you to praise the brand you are just now smoking. It is too dark it snuggles of yesterday's damp atmosphere troussez are black as a traitor's soul.
The treasures of Hawaii, formerly the exclusive enjoyment of the opulent classes, are now within the reach of almost every one, and when crops are short in Cuba, Mexico, Virginia and the Carolinas supply the deficiency.
There are cigars of many different titles, most of them highly sounding, like the Spanish hidaligos by whom they were named. There are Cayados, Prenados, Trabucos, Londres, Regueros, Princessas Caballeros, Crevas, Principes de Galles, Flor Finos, Espartieres, Comercantes, Cazadores, Medias, Regalías, Simples, Regulas de la Reina, Jenny Lind, Adelina Patti, Divina Sarah. Imperiales, Imperadores, Conchas, Bolivar Libertadores, Conquistadores, etc.
It is for the "comsoissieurs" to exercise their preferences and to contend for the very best. There are degrees in tobacco as in wine, and the flavana brand has its pedigree as has Chateau Yquem and Chambertin.
The "Figaro" or the "Henry Clay" has each its peculiar aroma. In the kingdom of tobacco as in the empire of love, among cigars as among women, there is always the eternal and inevitable rivalry between the blond and the brunette, the dark and the light, the strong and the mild; but in the smoking world, as elsewhere, if the brunettes are generally strong the blonds are not always mild.
HOW SOME MEN SMORE.
A true smoker must never select a moist cigar, but at the same time he must not take a too dry one. As the Latin philoopher said, "In medio tutis smus ibs."
The supreme nobility of the smoker depends also in great measure upon the manner in which he lights his cigar. To verify its peculiar aroma one has first to draw the smoke through the nose. To recognize a regular smoker is an easy task—his lips always betray him. The man who resolutely puts his cigar deeply in his mouth is a firm, decided man of action, quick in movement, perhaps brusque, but generally good hearted.
The youngster who cuts the end of the cigar with the tooth is rather insouciant. careless of future dental sufferings. The baldheaded young man who calls for a pennkite to cut the end of the cigar is a man judicious in council, methodical in his ways and well balanced.
The one who places his cigar in an amber holder is recherech in his tastes and stylish in his habits. The man who holds it with a silver clasp is a dude. The man fond of light shaded cigars is fond of the ballet, light performances. Offenbach music, comic opera and shepherdesses in water colors. He is also probably fond of fishing and boating, is generally romantic and is considered as a passionate waltzer.
LIGHT AND DARK SMOKERS.
The one who prefers dark shaded cigars may be supposed a daring and fortunate gambler, an anaconda and successful lover, rather fond of Leopold Robert and Regnant's vivid pictures and Verdi's music; he is partial to racing and wild hunting.
The man who buys his cigars without examination and only because they are tied in packages with ribbons perfumed by the Cuban peddler's wife is of confiding disposition, presumably an obedient husband and a credulous stockholder. The one who smokes his cigar almost to the end is by all means a persevering character, a faithful friend and a constant lover; the one who throws it away when only half smoking is blase.
The man who allows it to extinguish itself often and lights it again is absent-minded, thoughtful but indulgent, a good fellow, inclined to tolerance, taking men for what they are, women for what they are not: taking times as they come, he lets the stream of life flow gently by.
The "connoisseur" must be very careful when cigars show little yellow spots
if spots appear in consequence of an
equal drying, the cigar is borneal. 1.

In any case, the cigar is not the true smoker's host equipment it is a kind of companion between the cigarettes of the "coquette" and the short pipe of the cynical philosopher.—New York Discorder
How a Household Should Be Regulated.
At a recent meeting ofSenior at which the subject of "Husbands" was discussed, Mrs. Herrick attributed the failure of marital happiness to girls being taught to expect too much hardness from marriage, and that love takes only essential by romances, poetry, songs and tradition. But, while not belittling love, she claimed that respect based upon superior qualities; esteem for those attributes that would make the wife desire the husband as a friend if she could not have him for a husband; common sense, which teaches her that a faulty woman need not expect a perfect husband, and great patience—"that passion of noble souls"—are quite as essential elements in the domestic bliss.
She cautioned the wife against holding up her soul to her husband always with a thorn in it. Men cannot understand intangible griefs and unrest. She also said that one of the first lessons a wife has to learn is that her husband has a right to his own individuality, and that, while she can inspire him to greater achievement in a work for which he has a bias, she cannot, as she may fondly dream, mold his character, and she wouldn't respect him if she could.
Girls should be taught that marriage is not the gateway of heaven, and that even at this Eden the angel stands with the flaming sword to turn back souls that seek an earthly paradise. Women should know their lovers so well that marriage can bring no great disappointments. Marriage is not a match made in heaven, but an earthly union founded on mutual respect, over which the love that made the bond possible sheds a tender influence.—New York Sun.
An Incident of Travel.
Not long ago, when one of the great through western trains left New York city, a man and a woman, aged about eighty, got on the cars. They were accompanied by a younger man, who appeared to be their son, who got their tickets to some place in Nebraska, put them on the cars and left them. Shortly after passing Poughkeepsie the old lady was taken ill. This drew around them sympathizers, and upon inquiry it was found that they had but a very indiscrete idea of the journey before them, and that they had only a dollar and some cents in money between them.
The passengers raised a collection which furnished them with a berth in one of the sleeping cars to Chicago and seven dollars in money. It was evident from their actions that neither of them had ever seen a drawing room or sleeping car before, and the luxury and comfort was something entirely outside of their experience. They went on, the picture of content, and it is to be hoped reached their destination in safety.—Poughkeepsie Eagle.
A Wonderful Dakota Well.
The reports from the artesian well at Huron, N. D., show that it is the most wonderful well known to exist. The water spouts up to a distance of about 100 feet, and the amount that flows from the well is tremendous, being estimated at from 8,000 to 10,000 gallons a minute. Even at the lowest figures enough water is ejected to furnish every man, woman and child in the state of North Dakota with at least four gallons of water every four hours.
As to the pressure, that has not yet been fully ascertained, but from tests already made it is known to be considerably more than 200 pounds to the square inch. With a fair test it is likely to reach 228 pounds. The pressure has steadily increased in the last three days, and may exceed the above figures.—Cor. Rochester Post-Express.
Small girl on showing younger brothers "Pilgrim's Progress" comes to a picture of Faithful at the stake, and, in the corner, chariot and horses are depicted. The little ones express their anxiety as to Faithful and the fate awaiting him Small girl replies, "Oh, he's all right, they've sent a fly for him."—London Truth

"SEEING IS BELIEVING."
Some lamps are TOLERABLY good.
But who wants a "tolerably" good egg? And there is a heap of trouble with a "tolerably" good lamp. There is one lamp good without the tolerable—THE ROCHESTER SIMPLE, BEAUTIFUL, Good—those words mean much, but you see THE ROCHESTER will impress the truth more forcefully. All metal, tough and seamless, and made in three pieces only, it is ABSOLUTELY BASE and UN-BREAKABLE. "Like Aladdin's of old, it is indeed a 'wonderful lamp,' for its mar
velous light is purer and brighter than gas light, softer than electric light and more cheerful than either.
Look for this stamp—THE ROCHESTER. If the lamp dealer hasn't the genuine ROCHESTER, and the style you want, send to us for our new illustrated catalogue and we will send you a lamp safely by express—a choice of over 2,500 varieties from the LARGEST LAMP STORE IN THE WORLD.
