of the grapes which Zeuxis painted so cleverly thi it the birds came and pecked atthem. A funny paraphrase of the old tale oceurred at one of the well known Long Island watering places the other day. The arfist in this case was Mme.

——- of Paris, and the masterpiece was “a pe rfect love” of a hat—a great shady

leghorn most artistically twisted into a picturesque shape and decorated with perfect summer blossoms. They were so perfect that it was no wonder that patient Dobbin, Farmer Hayseed’s old horse, stretched out his nose longingly toward the lovely clovers, daisies and grasses that bobbed so temptingly on the head of a pretty girl just beyond his reach, where he stood before the postof-

fice waiting for his master.

Just at that moment a tall youth with

a tennis racket engaged the attention of the pretty girl, ani - oh joy !—the tempt- ing bit of meadowland came nearer and nearer to the wistful, outstretched nos- trils of the longing brute until, with one final reach of his long neck, he attained the coveted morsel. Before the some- what absorbed young people realized the situation he had wrenched off the entire garniture of the beautiful French hat, and amid the laughter of the spectators backed out of reach to enjoy his feast, leaving the poor girl with a completely denuded, rijiculoas looking pinned up affair, its erstwhile ‘‘cachet” lost forever. —New York Tribune.

Ice Breaking With Dynamite.

There have been divided opinions about the expediency of using dynamite and it has never been this purpose to any extent. Practical experiments last winter at the Hango harbor in Fimland seem, how- ever, to have given very satisfactory re- sults. The powerful ice breaker of the port was helpless in the face of a belt of some 1,200 feet of very thick ice, tlis ss of which was measured to be as much as 18 feet. It would seem es- sential for successful ice breaking with dynamite that there should be sufficient room to ¢‘spose of the broken ice, for 3 4 gw remain broken in th still interfere with the progress of steamers. The cost of the dynamite ice breaking at Hango amouut- ed to about £50,—London Engineering.

THE WORLD'S SWEETNESS.

Small Japanese rugs in soft blues or greenscan be had for $2.50. They are nice for the library.

The principal agent formerly used for refining sugar was bullock’s blood. — It is not now employed, all refining being done by filtration.

The substance called car: mel cane sugar heated toa temperature af 410,

when it undergoes severa. important chemical changes. According to the latest statistics of

Russian sugar manvfacture there were 214 sugar factories, manufacturing 200, C00 tons of sugar.

Owing to improvements in the manuer of manufacture the quantity of sugar ob- tained from a ton of beet-root has, in late years, risen from 83 per cent. in 1872 to 11.9 per cent. in 1887.

Fashions prevail as much in candiesas in hats, and itis a singular fact that dif- ferent kinds of candy are fashionable in different localities.

The sugar found in walnuts, hazel nutes and almonds is of exactly the same kind as that which exists in the juice of the sugar cane.

In India sugar sap is reduced - the use ofeleven boilers, the juice being poured from one to another, until it oe become a stiff molasses.

It appears from statistical reports that the world now consumes twice as much sugar asitdid in 1870, and four times as much as in 1850.

The Russian manufacture of sugar from beet-root was begun in the Province of Tulla, in 1811, the year before the great French invasion.

Itissaid by statistical authorities that inthe brewing and inalting business in this country nearly 100,000 tons of sugar

| are annually employed.

In 1867 the consumption of sugar in the

| |

is only !

| | |

United States was 24.1 pounds per head of |

population; in 1894 the consumption had increased to 66.4 pounds.

Before 1850, Russia, Belgium and Hoi- land produced no beet sugar; now these countries are important factors in the sugar markets of the world.

In 1847 Marggraf, a chemist, of Berlin, discovered that the red beet had 4.6 per cent, of sugar, and that the juice of the white beet contained 2 per cent.

The first important manutactory of beet sugar was established in Prussia a little before the year 1816. In that year 1,400 tons of beet sugar were maaufactured.

Gum drops « few years ago were the most fashionable variety of candy, but dealers spoiled the trade by putting brandy and other forms of them.

Medical authorities declare glucose employed in the manufacture of cheap candies unhealthfual, asa large consumption Lo tends to produce dia bete-.

The Late Mrs. Barrymore.

The pictures which the newspapers are printing of the late Georgie Drew Barrymore are hideouscaricatures. Mrs. Barrymore was not a regularly hand- some woman. She hada fine physique and a noble bearing, and her face was a remarkable combination of delicacy and strength. Her complexion was white and clear, end her hair was fair and fine. The distinct charm of the woman lay, however, in the buoyancy of her tem- perament.and the cordial gayety of her manner. Her animation gave her a beauty which words cannot describe and artists cannot limn. In addition to this rare personal gift Mrs. Barrymore had an exceptional wit. It would have been hard to find a more companionable woim- an.—Eugene Field in Chicago News.

The Trouble With Medicai Ethics.

The code of ethics which prevails among members of the medical profes- sion had made it impossible for the sur- geon general to state the facts in the president’s case until he had been spe- cially authorized to do so. Meantime his refusal to give direct answers to plain questions gud his efforts to make as greata my stery as possible out ofa most ordinary surgical operation had given rise to the rumors that the presi- dent was afflicted with a dangerous ill- ness. There appears to be a good deal of foolishness in the ethics of the med- ical fraternity. Their code certainly needs revision. —Chicago Herald.

Wives Advised to Ketaliate.

Father Naraiello of the Church of the Sacred Heart has received numerous complaints of men neglecting their fam ilies and spending their money in sa- loons. He advised the wives who re- ceived brutal treatment at the hands of drunken husbands to retaliate. If drunk- en husbands construed their marriage vows to give them a right to veat their wives, the wife had an equal right te beat her husband. The priest told the women not to be afraid of drunken brutes, as in nearly every case they would

ing figure among the princes of Europe. The accounts of him still fascinate the imagination. Taller by half a head than most of his own picked guard, a power- ful and well-rounded form. and straight as a pine, no other man of our century has so looked the part of an autocrat. His face, particularly in profile, was as | exceptional in its regularity of beauty as Napoleon's, albeit of a wholly differ- ent order, This face had a strange pecu- liarity. The eyelashes were curiously un- developed, and of so pale a color that his tig, bold, piercing eves had the effect of no relief whatever. They frightened peo- ple who met thelr gaze. Still more did the tales that were told of him, of his cowssal ambitions, his whlid outbursts of savagery, his iron-handed grip upon the lives and thoughts and very souls of uncoanted millions of subjects, impress the popular fancy of his time. It had been given out that he was to visit ing- land some time in 1845, but now sud- denly at the close of May, 1844, word came that he was to appear in London in two days’ time. He liked to deseend upon people in this abrupt and unexpect- ed way; it was in keeping with his own conception of his character, and produced just the impression of irresponsible omnipotence which it pleased him to create, in small matters not less than in large affairs,

The girlish Queen and those about her were greatly excited hy this unlooked- for apparition, Vicsoria filled her diary with wonder-struck exclamation points each day of his stay. and wrote long letters to her relative, King Leopold of Belgium, detailing her emotions during the eventful ten days. ‘‘He is certainly a very striking man,’’ she wrote; “‘still very handsome; his profile is beautiful, and his manners most dignified and graceful; extremely civil, quite alarm- ingly so, as he is so full of attentions and politeness. Rut the expression of the eyes is severe, and unlike anything I

ver saw before. He gives Albert and

myself the impression of a man who is not happy, and on whom the burden of his immense power and position weighs heavily and painfully. He seldom smiles, and when he does the expression is not a happy onve’”’ Again, in her journal, the Queen writes, a day or two later! ‘‘I don’t know why, but I can’t help pitying him, I think his immense power weighs heavily on bis head.’’

I have been interested in recalling this impression of grave unhappiness which the first Nicholas produced npon the Queen. The strongest and most robust of men, with a giant’s will and nerve of steel, he still found his burden too great. Now, fifty-two years later, the Queen welcomes as a guest the great-grandson of that splendid, somber first Nicholas, whom she ‘‘couldn’t heip pitying.’’ How infinitely greater must be the impulse to pity the second Nicholas, himself a frail, timid little fellow, and bowed under a weight of respensibility which from any point of view is manifold heavier than that which was carried by his ancestor in 1844!

India in Africa,

Nothing is more remarkable than the emergence of India as the dominating military factor of the southern half of the Eastern hemisphere. For some time past, Sir H. H. Johnstone has recruited his bodyguard in Nyassaland from the Sikhs of northern India. The construc- tion of the East African railway has been placed in the hands of Indian con- tractors, who will execute it by Indian labor, pretected by Indian troops. Sua- kim is now garrisoned by 4,000 Sepoys, and nothing is more probable than that the relief of Bulawayo will ultimately be effected by an Indian army landed at Beira. Mr. Rhodes dreaded this in the days when he regarded the Cape as his natural base. It is possible that he may take a different view of matters now. The fact that the whole of East Africa will be more or less under the military and industrial dominion of India lends great importance to the discussion which is raging as to whether or not the Indian exchequer should be saddled with the cost of the Suakim garrison. A paper has been published giving the opinions of the Anglo-Indian authorities on this subject, but there is very little doubt as to how the question ought to be decided. Africa ought to pay its own way. If it can call upon India for trained troops in case of need, it ought to pay for them India is not a country that can afford to pay tira oost of expeditions to other continents.-- From ‘‘The Progress of the World,’’ in August Review of Reviews.

“They Never Touched It,”

To those worthy souls who every now and again start ont to annihilate the bicycle, we respectfully submit the fol- lowing little boy’s story, which was told several years ago by the San Francisco Examiner, to illustrate some similarly impractical crusade:—~

One time there was a young gote wich felt butty, and there was a ole ram wich Jay in the road, half asleep, a chune his cud, The gote he hal been shet up is a paster ol his life, an had never saw a ram, and eased te his sister, the gote did, ‘* You jest stan still an se me wipe that freek off the face of the erth.’’ &« the gote he went up before the ram an’ ston. pt his feets an’ shuke his head real friteful, but the ram he dident git up, but only jes kep a chune his cud aod wotched out between his i lashes. Bime by the gote he backed of and tuk a run, an’ then arose up in the air an’ come down with his hed on the ram’s hed, wack! The gote’s hed was busted, but the ole ram he never wank his eve. Then the ole ram he smiled with his mowth, an’ sed to the butte gote’s sister, ‘‘’Pears to me, miss, that kang- aroo of yourn is mity careless where he lites; he come gum dasted near makin me swoller my cud,

Dead Bees.

A Germantown correspondent write:: “Can yon tel! me if the pink Japan Judas tree, which was in bloom a couple of weeks ago, emits a fluid poisonous ta bees and other insects? I have seen it stated that such was the case. That in- sects were attracted by the bright blos- soms, but that the latter emitted an opi- ate and the dead insects could be seen on the ground about the bush.’’ i

Dead bees can be found in abundance under any early flowering plant that they frequent. It is not that they are poisoned; but simply that their time hascome. The life of any bee does not reach twelve months.
