SOME UNUSUAL TITLES.
The Names of a Few Books Which Have Not Been Copyrighted.
The journaiist who had just written a delightful little brochure, Liberty of the Press; or; How to Knock the Props From Under the Archimedean Le- ver That Moves the World,’’ was calling on Mr. Young at the library to get it,copy righted. Mr. Young gracefully referred him to a clerk in that department, and as the clerk was getting the paper ready ho was making himself interesting by talk- ing. =
‘*Yes, sir,’’ he was saying, ‘‘I rather think you have hit upon a good title for your book. Of course some people won't know what the dickens—I beg your par- don—what on earth it means, but that doesn’t make any difference to you. They
are stupid people who wouldn't buy it any- , Still there’s a good deal ina title. |
how. Of course I don’t mean the kind our rich girls love to marry,’ and the clerk chuc- kled, ‘‘but titles of books. You under- stand. I just made a list Icame across today. They are from different sources. Here's a few that funny fellow Tom Hood gave to the Duke of Devonshire to go on some dummy books for an entrance door to his library: ‘McAdam’s Views In Rhodes,’ ‘Boyle on Steam Designs For Friezes,’ by an Arctic Explorer; ‘Pygma- lion,’ by Lord Bacon; ‘Cursory Remarks on Swearing,’ by Jupiter; ‘Percy Vere,’ in 40 volumes; ‘Cook’s Specimens of the Sandwich Tongue,’ ‘On Sore Throat and
the Migration of the Swallow, ’ ‘Kosciusko
on tke Right of Poles to Stick Up For Themselves,’ ‘Lamb's Recollections of Suett,’ ‘Chronological Account of the Date Palm,’ and several others.
‘“‘Then there were some old volumes of |
the time of Cromwell which had titles liko these: ‘Crumbs of Comfort For the Chick- ens of the Covenant,’ ‘High Heeled Shoes For Dwarfs In Holiness,’ ‘Hooks and Eyes For Believers’ Breeches,’ ‘The Spiritual Mustard Pot to Make the Soul Sneeze With Devotion,’ ‘Tobacco Battered and the Pipes Shattered About Their Ears That Idly Idolize So Loathsome a Vanity, by a Volley of Holy Shot Thundered From Mount Helicon, a Poem Against the Use
of Tobacco,’ by Joshua Sylvester; ‘The |
Snuffers of Divine Love,’ ‘Seven Sobs of a Sorrowful Soul For Sin,’ and some more of the same sort. Added to these are a few scattering ones like these: ‘Waves of Sound and the High ©,’ ‘A Jawey Forever,’ by an Active Prizefighter; ‘A Rich Ameri- can, or the Earl’s Choice,’ and so on through a list of odd ones.”’
The clerk handed the journalist a folded paper.
‘*Thank you,”’ said the journalist.
“Fifty certs, please. Anything more today?’’ smiled the clerk, and the incident was closed.—Washington Star.
’
A Bee's Sting.
A German chemist, Joseph Larger, has succeeded with infinite patience ta analyz- ing the poison of a bee’s sting. The amount secreted by each bee is only a tenth of a milligram, and he required 20,- 000 bees to get enough to experiment with. He did not discover any bacteria and con- cluded that the action of the poison was purely chemical.

We are kappy to be able to congratulate Dr. William G. Burke, of Boston, on the important step be has just taken at this joyous season. According to Boston ad | vices, the Doctor was united in Holy Matri-

dane, eidest danghter of Captain Lawrence Kickbam. Miss Kickham was given away by her father, and Dr. Drammy, son-in-law of Patrick Donahoe, of the Pilot, performed the same office for his young confrere. There was the usual feasting and gift-giving and well-wishing. Doctor Burke is a Georgetown boy, a son of Capt. James Burke, of that place and a brother of Kev. Father Burke, of Alberton. Miss Kickham is, if we mistake not, a Charlotte:onian, being boro here when her father was one of the most enccessful deep water captains of the port. Their numerous friends throughout the Province wil! join with xs in wishing the happy couple unbounded joy in their married life.

WOMAN'S DELIGHT. ..
The latest French skirt models grow narrower and closer on the front and sides.
Roman sash ribbons are employed very prettily for vests and also for sashes on tea gowns,
The latest coats in cloth or fur are sup- } plied with very moderate sized sleeves, | quite close to the arm except at the top.
Velvet ribbon, with silk fringe less than an inch wide fallivg below each row, forms one of the mupy modes of dress trimming.
Bennet strings tied in asmart little bow under the chin appear upon almost all the new models for winter, and black velvet is the favered ribbon.
Black moire trizomed very elaborately on the bodice with jet spangled silk mus- lin forms a very clegant and very popular gown tor receptions, dinners and afternoon teas.
Two new fashionable dress matertals are called peau de gazelle and pluie de soie. One is a fine cloth, very light in weight and almost as glossy as silk, and the other is a plain wool fabric with tiny silk loops all over it.
Fashionable dressmakers both here and abroad are making most liberal use of beautiful artificial flewers that look exact- ly like nature’s own to decorate evening toilets, and not a few fichus and bodices are actually smothered with roses.
Besides the embroidered and jeweled trimmings, handsome laces are much used as fun bows, resettes amd wings on even- ing bonnets and hats aad to drape the crowns of small toques, with a spreading or standing bow of scme rich color, with a sparkling ornament in the center.
Neckties of tulle, chiffon and cream white net ere a very fashionable addition to both dressy and plain cloth gowns They are cut wide and long enough to pass twice around the neck and tie ina bow with ends to the waist, and are trim-

tucks between.
Collar bands are still a very distinctive point in the costume, and many very som- ber gowns havea dash of bright color at the neck, which adds wonderfully to the effect. Folds of white satin with three folds of blue orred satin at the upper edge make an effeetive collar, as do folds of white satin with gold braid between.

No two clocks can be made to keep time exactly alike an strike simultaneously.
The old storehouse at Tappan in which Major John Andre spent the last days of his life has beem converted into a public resort.
Godstow, near Oxford, with the ruins of the nunnery where Henry II first saw Fair Rosamond and where Queen Eleanor put her to death, has just been sold at auc- tion. .
One of the dry goods stores in Boston has substituted the cry. ‘‘teller’’ for ‘‘cash,’’ to the great delight of the natives, who seem to think it a choicer word for use in a cultured city.
The Italians who live in the neighbcr- hood of the Wellington statue and Hyde park corner in London have named the place ‘‘Cavallinton,’’ a corruption for ‘‘cavallo alto Wellington” (high horse Wel- lington).
Dr. A. M. Berger has found in the Vat- ican library prescriptions and directions for treating various eye troubles in Mi- chael Angelo’s own handwriting. He has published them in the original Italian, with a few German notes.
One of the important officiais of the German court is said to be the ‘‘imperial pants stretcher.’’ As the emperor has over 100 pairs of trousers and changes them with considerable regulsrity, the position is far from being an honorary one.
French song writing is despaired of by the Academie Francaise. ‘The first set of songs sent in for the prize established by M. Montariol two years age was so bsd that the academy has decided to turn over the bequest of 10,000 francs te the found- er’s heirs.
