And for all goods of Farming Machinery. It was in this way that Marco Polo learned so much about Cathay, and the book of travel's which he wrote was read for a long time with the greatest interest. Now it is looked upon as an ancient relic, and the pictures are particularly funny. In one of them is a representation of the Khan in a portable room carried on the backs of four elences they had many wonderful stories to tell of the mysterious country they had explored, and the strange sight and adventures they had met with; and two years afterward they started again on their travels, with letters and presents for the Chinese monarch from Pope Gregory X. Marco, then a young man of 20, went with them on this journey. They traveled over land and water and desert, and had many hardships and dangers to encounter, but finally they reached the city of Cambala (which was discovered in the seventeenth century to be Pakin), after a journey of four years! When the Khan heard that they were coming he sent people to meet them a month and a half before they arrived, and directed that they should be received with every possible honor. At last they reached the royal city and were conducted at once to the Khan, before whom they prostrated themselves, after the fashion of the country; then they were invited to a magnificent banquet. The throne, which stood on a platform at the head of the long table, sparkled and glittered with precious gems; and on this was seated the monarch of Cathay, sparkling and shattering likewise in his feestal robes, with his four wives around him, and a long string of attendants for each of the ladies. Everybody who was considered to be good society in Cambala was present at this fast of welcome to the returned travelers; and jewels and plumes and good and precious stones and brilliant colors and beautiful faces were mingled together in bewildering confusion. After the company had left the table janglers and acrobats and musicians were brought into entertain them and very likely the fired strangers were very glad when it was all over, and they could retire in peace to the splendid palace that had been arranged with every imaginable beauty, and hosts of servants to wait upon them and do their bidding. The next day they presented the generous monarch with the Pope's letter and a small bottle filled with oil used for the silver lamps in the chapel of the Holy Sappidor at Jerusalem. The Khan saw, from the reverent manner of the traveler, that this oil must possess rare virtues, and received it with much gratitude. He was an intelligent man and he asked them many questions about their journey and about matters of things in Europe, the Polos having become well acquainted with the Monaco language during their former stay, so that they couldn't talk without an interruption. His Royal Highness was particularly pleased with Marco, and said that he would give him an important position on his household. The young man immediately began to study the language, laws and customs of this strange country, that he might be able to perform the duties of his office, and the Khan soon had such confidence that he sent him on affairs of importance all over the empire.

GIANT BAKING POWDER THE ATTENTION OF HOUSEKEEPERS AND the public in general is called to the following facts: The value of Baking Powder is determined by the amount of gas it contains and the freedom of the article from any injurious ingredients. The GIANT BAKING POWDER is absolutely pure, and contains about one-quarter more gas than any brand of Baking Powder in use on this Coast. Three cans of GIANT BAKING POWDER are equal to four cans of any other brand. Study economy and use none other. Your grocer will furnish you with a sample can free. Try it. FACTS. SAN FRANCISCO, JULY 13, 1853. BOTHIN MANUFACTURING CO. GENTLEMEN: The sample of GIANT BAKING POWDER you handed me, also samples of the following brands of Baking Powders purchased by me in open market, I have tested for total quantity of available gas, with results as follows: GIANT 196 cubic inches per ounce avoirdupois. ROYAL 120 cubic inches. NEW ENGLAND 110 cubic inches. PIONEER 107 cubic inches. GOLDEN GATE 107 cubic inches. DR. PRICES 90 cubic inches. Yours, respectfully, THOMAS PRICE, Chemist. SAN FRANCISCO Sept. 24, 1853. M. R. BOTHIN, President Bothin Manufacturing Co. Dear Sir: After a careful and complete chemical analysis of a can of GIANT BAKING POWDER, purchased by us in open market, we find that it does not contain alum, acid phosphate, termal alba, or any injurious substances, but is a pure, healthful Cream Tartar Baking Powder, and as such can recommend it to consumers.

MANUFACTURED BY THE BOTHIN MANUFACTURING COMPANY 11 AND 19 MAIN ST., SAN FRANCISCO FOR SALE BY ALL DEALERS The young man immediately began to study the language, laws and customs of this strange country, that he might be able to perform the duties of his office, and the Khan soon had such confidence that he sent him on affairs of importance all over the empire. It was in this way that Marco Polo learned so much about Cathay, and the book of travel's which he wrote was read for a long time with the greatest interest. Now it is looked upon as an ancient relief, and the pictures are particularly funny. In one of them is a representation of the Khan in a portable room carried on the backs of four elephants, which are shaped very much like pigs, and have gorgeous rosettes on their backs, supposed to be intended for saddles. A crowd of people gaze with awe upon their sovereign as he is borne triumphantly along in this very novel manner, the front side of the room being open, so that all can see him. Another picture, which is intended for an elephant hunt, represents the elephants shorter than the horses on which the hunters ride and shout at them with bows and arrows—as though elephants would mind that!—while the trees seem to be growing on the elephants' backs. Khubla Khan was at war with the sovereign signs of the provinces south of his kingdom, and his friends the Polos were of great use to him by showing him how to make and use the European machines, called catapults, for hurling immense stones against the walls and towers of best-ged cities. These were highly thought of before the invention of artillery. The monarch was very much delighted, and as soon as the machines were ready he sent the learned Venetians to head a fresh attack upon the important city of Sa-yan-fu. The banner of Khubla Khan was soon waving above the crushed walls, and the Polos were liberally rewarded with wealth and honors. Marco, who was the Khan's especial favorite, was made a noble of the empire, with a more magnificent palace and a larger retinue than ever. After spending seventeen years of this exciting life, the Polos longed to see their native city again; but the monarch who was now an old man, would not consent to part with them. Fortunately, however, for the homesick visitors, the Khan's granddaughter was to marry the King of Periais, and started on her journey to that country; but after traveling for eight months the Princess and her attendants found that many of the provinces through which they had to pass were at war, and they turned back to Cambodia. The Poles arising this opportunity of escaping promised to convey the bridal party safety by sea; and the Khan agreed to let them go, on condition of their returning to him again after a short visit home. Among the monarch's parting gifts were cashs of magnificent rubies and other precious gems. It was eighteen months before they reached Ormuz, and during that time two or three of the envoys and 600 of the Princess' attendants had died. The Persian bridegroom was dead also, and so was the monarch of Cathay, Khubla Khan. The Polos now were freed from their promise to return; and after staying nine months in Persia—for they liked to explore every place at which they stopped—they started on their long journey to Venice. They arrived there in safety, after an absence of twenty-four years; and at first no one would believe that these outlandish-looking travelers were the real Polos. But they soon proved their identity, and became known far and wide as the most wonderful travelers of the time. Marco was a prisoner in Genoa for four years, after a battle with the Genoese, and he amused himself during this dreary period by writing an account of his travels and his life at the court of the Khan.—Harper's Young People. The Smith Family. Ever since John Smith left old England and went to remeaning about Virginia with an Indian tied on one arm, as a shield to catch the arrows fired at him by Powhat-on and a lot of red scallawags without a hat on, the Smiths have been a wandering race. They have been profile as well as nomadic, and big and little Smiths are scattered up and down this vale of tears as thick as bowlers on a New England farm. On a certain occasion two wagons made a bet that there were and were not twenty-five Smiths in Haymarket Theater, London, one night when Garrick was playing there and the house was crowded. They went to the theater, and one of them jumping upon a seat hurriedly inquired if Mr. Smith was present. Fifty-one gentlemen arrose. "The Mr. Smith I wish to see is bald-headed," shouted the joker. Twenty-seven human billiard balls remained standing, each trying to pull the islands of hair growing to the starboard of his party safely by sea; and the Khan agreed to let them go, on condition of their returning to him again after a short visit home. Among the monarch's parting gifts were cashs of magnificent rubies and other precious gems. It was eighteen months before they reached Ormuz, and during that time two or three of the envoys and 600 of the Princess' attendants had died.

Heroic Children. The British Royal Humane Society has just investigated three instances in which children whose ages ranged from 9 to 12 years have gained the usual rewards for heroesm. One little fellow, S. G. File, aged 9 years, has been awarded the medal for the following act: A child named Wyatt fell off the pier at Oreston, near Plymouth, on August 18, and had drifted out about seven yards in twelve feet of water, when Pile plunged into the rescue with his clothes on, swam out, and reached the child, bringing it into the steps, where they were both assisted out. Another little fellow, W. W. Hayne, aged 12, has been awarded a testimonial for saving a child named Humphreys, aged 4, in the river at Llamberris on Aug. 20. The latter fell off a bridge into the river, near a whirlpool, when Hayne swam out, fully clothed, and brought him ashore. A similar testimonial has also been awarded to a girl, E. S. Deacon, aged 12, for saving A. Finch at Blackpool, near Dartmouth, on Aug. 20. Finch slipped off the rock and became unconscious, when the girl jumped in, fully dressed, and succeeded in holding her charge above water until assistance arrived. FRUIT TREES!

C. GLIDDEN 33 North Main Street (Ponet Block). A course of Kansas small boys thought it would be rare sport to saturate the hair of their sleeping mother with coal oil and apply a match to it, but after the experiment and after a wooded interview with an electric-eyed, bald-headed woman they sat down sideways on the step and thought and thought and thought, and to save their lives they couldn't see anything funny about the affair. Planning Work. "How shall I plan my work to the best advantage?" asks a young housekeeper. "I desire to use my time as probably as I can." In my own experience, I have observed that everything hinges upon the morning hours. If the housekeeper will rise early enough to sweep and dust her sitting-room and kitchen before breakfast, to trim her lamps, to see that the front and back yards are in order, she will find that this work seems to take care of itself. Early in the morning we are liable to but few interruptions, and we are more vigorous than later in the day. After breakfast we feel like taking things more moderately than before, and it is right we should. Brisk muscular exercise should never immediately follow the pleasures of the table. Breakfast should be over and the dishes washed by 9 o'clock. The preparations for dinner and supper should all be made, so far as may be, in the morning, so that when these meals are gotten ready they may require the least time and exertion possible. By so doing our young housekeeper will have her leisure during the day in one piece, so to speak, and yet not be hurried or anxious lest her meals be late. A good clock is indispensable in the kitchen, and when one is there, the housekeeper must go by it. When the hands reach certain points on the dial plate, certain operations must be begun; and they must be completed within a certain time or confusion will follow. If the young housekeeper will make a list of everything she has to do, her work will be much simplified. Thoughts About Women—By a Jilted Man. Women are sadly ruled by the law of compensation. Those who are good are never pretty; those who are pretty are never good. To a man, truth is what he knows; to a woman, truth is what she believes. The only perfect woman a man ever knows is his mother. LARGEST STOCK IN AMERICA!

Up to the time I mentioned I had suffered from diseased liver for twenty years," said Mr.S.T.Hinckow of Richmond,Va., half said, as though thinking of that dilapidated section of his life. "At times I almost wished it had pleased Providence to emit the liver from the human anatomy." "Bad enough twenty years of that sort of thing," responded a listener. "What was the upshot of it?" The upset was that in nine age I went down to Smith Street in the city and bought one of BEN-O'S CAPINE PROUS PLASTERS, applied it and wear it in a few hours, and now as sound as though my liver were made of India rubber.

FIRST Thoughts About Women—By a Jilted Man. Women are sadly ruled by the law of compensation. Those who are good are never pretty; those who are pretty are never good. To a man, truth is what he knows; to a woman, truth is what she believes. The only perfect woman a man ever knows is his mother. All intimate friendships among women have the same basis, and always exist between those who resemble each other in figure—they can borrow each other's dresses. Women invariably fear death—and I don't wonder.—Providence Star. A "Square" Meal. A negro named Rom Lawson, of Alensville, N.C., made a meal of one and one-half quarters mutton, eighteen biscuit, one pound candy, two half-grown chickens, five herrings, one loaf corn bread and a piece of shout supposed to weigh about one pound, drank three quarts of water, and said he hadn't eaten half enough. He then offered to bet he could throw any man, or lift more with a hard-stick than any man on the ground. In order to show his strength he took a man that weighed 200 pounds and carried him about the grounds in his teeth. He then went up to another table and called for a 25 cent snack. It is claimed that Accomae and Northampton counties, Va., have the best soil for peach trees that is known in America. There are peach trees living and bearing there now which were planted in 1816.
