You naturally' turn your attention to places outside the city, and the suggestion of a day at Sete Cidades (Seven Cities) offers one day of relief from the torpid unsavory town. Sete Cidades Is the eastern one of the two great craters of St Michaels, between which Ponta Delgada lies, and la a tiny town In the small valley between seven peaks, grim sentinels standing guard where once a greater peak, whose Inward fire was Its own destruction, frowned out over the Island and the sea on either side. It goes without saying that about these seven peaks hangs the usual legend of the hoary monarch, his one beautiful daughter and the Beven Impassable gates, and so forth, that with more or less variation is told about every set of Beven peaks or seven lakes to be found anywhere. It Is not the little valley with its worn-otraditions, not the little lake supposed to be half of green and half of blue, nor yet the surrounding d coronet of bills that makes Sete Cidades an ineffaceable Incident In ones journey! ngs. liut It Is beauty, not evil entreatment, over which memory lingers when Sete recurs to mind, beHuty that is seen on the journey thither, and above nil from the ciaters edge, rather than In the valley Itself. To do the trip as it should be done go with some one who has been over the ground before; go. If you will, under the guiduuce of a native Asorean gentleman, who speaks English and. Indeed, expresses himself In many languages when In temper, and In all others when out of temper. There Is such a one here, who will take rare of your whole party, and all the days arrangements, even to the weather, though when your appointed day comes it Is not only showery hut misty as well. But good San Antonio, what is to be done? The carriages have been ordered since a week ago. the donkeys will be there at the beginning of the trail to meet the carriages, and and there between the showers Is a rift of fair sky and a dash of sunshine, and, perhaps, Nos- ? sa Senhora Yes, yes; without doubt she will, for there are English In the party, English senhoras, and Isnt the whole party itself from that glorious United States of America? Surely for the honor of the Portuguese nation Our Lady will look after the weather; besides the carriages are already paid for enough! The Scotsman hath a saving mind, and the Jew Is somewhat thrifty, but your true Asorean will use what he has paid for though It take his whole year's Income In doctor's bills, So you pile Into your particular carriage, after the usual argument with your voluble guide as to which shall not occupy the place of honor; the customary of accompaniment coats, blankets, bottles, umbrellas and bags without which no native ever on one of theae wonderful St Mich-eal- a drives, first along the top of the ea cliff, then north Into the mountains.

I would return home from my business feeling so faint that I could hardly drag one leg after the other. My dear wife did all she possibly could to tempt me with dainty dishes, and as I entered the house L miffed and thought: Oh, how good; know I can oat that! But alas! no loonor had I eaten a few mouthfuls, when I felt elok; severe pains shot through my chest and shoulder blades, my eyes swam and everything seemed black, I became alternately hot and sold, and got up from such a dainty Sinner heartily sick of living, and feeling I was a sore trial to everybody. I may mention that I was also very much troubled with scaly skin, and often bolls. But one evening I noticed my wife seemed more cheerful than usual. I questioned her and found she had been reading a pamphlet she had received of men afflicted Just as I was, and who had been cured by Yogeleris ComSaid she, What gives me pound. more faith In it is that it is made from the formula of an eminent physician now in active practice in the West End of London, so I am sure It Is no quack thing.' All right, dear, lets hare a bottle, said I. After taking the contents of the first bottle, I felt very much better, and determined to give this remedy a fair trial, and I can positively assure you that a few bottles made a new man of me. I can stop y well, eat anything, and thoroughly life. I have told several of my friends whom I knew were suffering the same as myself, and they all wish me to say that they are like new men. I sincerely bless the great physician who gave you the formula of Vogelers Curative Compound, and. also your- selves for making Its virtues known to a suffering public.

New Washington Statue j Tra Rich lira In United States to One In Japan. The Jijl Shlmpo has made a curious census of the rich men of Japan.

The total number of these d of the number is 411. reside In Toklo, and the great majority are found, of course, in the capital and the progressive cities of Osaka, Koto, Kobe and Yokohama. The result shows that there are ten rich men in the United States to one rich man in Japan, even when $1,000,000 Is accepted as a standard In the United States and $250,000 In the Japanese empire. The proportion, however, Is not so much against Japan as may at first appear. The rich men of the latter country, even the bankers and financiers, have their largest holdings In land. They have not yet specialised the business of money making as it has been in this country and therefore the basis of fortunes Is more stable. Again, It is estimated that a dollar In Japan is equal in the amount it will purchase of romfort and luxury, to four or five With dollars In the United States. this consideration In view It will bo seen that the apparently small fortunes of the Japanese wealthier classes are really much larger than they seem. The period of business and Industrial development has Just begun and fortunes are being made more rapidly now than they were ten or even five years ago.
