ARTIFICIAL PEARLs.--To such perfection
has the manufacture of artificial pearls been
carried, that none but connoisseurs can
readily distinguish the real from the false.
The manufacture has gradually spread from
from France to Italy and Turkey, and pearls
of all kinds of form and color are now made.
At the Exposition of the products of French
industry, at Paris in 1856, high reputa-
ton had been attained for these imitation
pearls, which were so admirably made by NJ.
Constant Wales, that it was impossible at
first sight to distinguish the real from the
false strung alternately on the same string;
and there is also claimed for them the merit
ofnot being affected by perspiration, water,
or any other effect of wear. He received d
silver medal then from the jury; and the
perfection of French imitation pearls has
been sustained at subsequent International
exhibitions up to the present day. At the
same exhibition another maker showed four
strings of pearls, two of them real, and two
false, which the uninitiated could not dis
tnguish, yet one may be set down as costing
seven shillings and the other e700. As false
pearls are too perfect in form, in shape and
light, it became necessary to initiate the i'm
projections of nature, and this lie now effect
lively done.

All About Fans.

Fans are luxury which no one can fore
go, and they are now made so cheaply that
they are within the reach of every one
The Chinese make the cheapest fan in the
market, a very good article of bamboo and
paper, adorned with designs of various
sorts, selling at ten cents. 1t is said fans
were first discovered by accident, about
5000 years ago, by Chinese princess tax
ing off her mask at a festival and using it
as fan. Her example was instantly fol-
lowed, became fashionable and has contin-
ued to this day.
In Egypt the fan has been in use for
thousands of years. The fan used by the
priests was made of long feathers of differ
ent lengths, forming semi-circle, and
pointed at the top. 1t was waved by fe-
male slaves.
The Romans used fans as we do, to keep
flies from the table during meal times. In
France, in 1900, fans were decorated ex-
travagantly with diamonds, gold and
precious stones. Some of them were paint
ed by the most celebrated painters of the
times and brought fabulous prices. 1t is
stated that in France fan which sells for
one or two cents passes through twenty diff
ferent hands in the course of its manufac-
ture. The French and Chinese have always
been great rivals in their manufacture, and
this has the effect of lowering the prices,
on account of the competition.

MIXED BABIEs.-Some time ago there
was dancing party given in a certain
neighborhood in Texas and most of the
ladies present had little babies whose noisy
perversity required too much attention to
permit the mothers to enjoy the darce. A
number of gallant young men volunteered
to mind the young ones while the parents
INDUCED in an old Virginia breakdown
No sooner had the women left the babies in
charge of the mischievous devils than they
stripped the babies, changed their clothes,
giving the apparel Of one to another. The
dance over it was time to go home, and the
mothers hurriedly took each baby in the
dress of her own and started, some to their
homes, ten or fifteen miles off, and were far
on their way before daylight But the day
following there was tremendous row in
the settlement. Mothers discovered that a
single night had changed the sex of their
babies, observation disclosed physical
phenomena and then commenced the talest
female pedestrianism. Living miles apart,
it required two or three days to unmix the
babies and as many months to restore the
mothers to their natural sweet dispositions.
To this day it is unsafe for any of the baby
mixers to venture into the neighborhood.-

SHORT SERMoN.-The man who penned
the following paragraph for the Methodist
Recorder left no margin for misapprehension
rs to his opinion on the above subject =
"The popular clamor for short sermons is
kept up by a restless class of young persons
who are smarter than their parents or
pastors. They get the fidgets ii sermon
reaches beyond fifteen or twenty minutes.
And yet these same goslings of both gen.
ders, when they come together in social
party or meet In the parlor, will waste solid
hours in the stupidest common places
Their talk does not rise to the dignity of
conversation; it is nonsense from first to
last; it is worse than the waste of time, of
life, of everything. But these giglers from
the goose pastures presume to know how
long minister should preach, and here and
there the kind-souled pastors accommodate
their sermons to the gosling taste. Let
the pulpit have time to discuss the topics
it undertakes, and let the discussion be 30
fresh, vigorous and attractive as to arrest
the attention from all who have heart and
brain to understand. For goose in the
pulpit is worse than a gosling in the pew"

BE CAREFUL WHAT You FILL UP WITH.
"A boy returned from school, one day, W it'll
the report that his scholarship had fallen
below the usual average. "Well," said his
father "yon've fallen behind, this month,
have you ?" "Yes, SIR" How did that
happen 2" "Don't, know SIR" The father
knew, if his son did hot He had observed
number of cheap novels scattered about
the house, but he had not thought it worth
while to say anything until fitting oppor-
tunity should offer ITSELF A basket of APP
pies stood upon the floor, and he said -
empty those apples, and take the basket
and bring it to me half full of chips "And
now" he continued, put those apples back
into the basket" When half the apples
were replaced, the son said: "Father, they
roll off. can't put in any more" Put
them in, tell you" "But, father, 1 can't put
them in" Put them in ! No. of course
you can't put them in. Do you expect to
fill a basket half full of chips and then fill
it with apples9 You said you didn't know
why you fell behind at school, and will
tell you. Your mind is like that basket, it
will not hold much more than so much; and
here you have been the past month filling up
with rubbish-worthless cheap novels. ~
The boy turned on his heel, and whistled,
and said "Whew see the point"

When the mi$tS have rolled in splendor
From the beauty of The hills,
And the sunshine, warm and tender,
Falls in silendor on the rils,
We may read loves shining letter
In The rainbow of the spray;
We shall know each other better,
When the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known,
Never more to walk alone,
In the dawning of the morning,
When the mists have cleared AWAY

And forget that we are dust,
If we miss the law OF kindness
When we struggle to be just,
Snowy wings of peace shall cover
All the pain that clouds our way,
When the wears watch is over,
And the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known,
Never more to walk alone
In the dawning of the morning,
When the mists have cleared away.
When the silvery mists have yelled us
From the faces of our own,
Oft we deem their love has failed us,
And we tread our path alone;
We should see them near and truly,
We should trust them day by day,
Neither love nor blame unduly,
If the mists were cleared away.
We shall know as we are known,
Never more to walk alone,
In the dawning of the morning,
When the mists have cleared away.
When the mists have risen above us,
AS our Father knows his own,
Face to face with those that love us,
We shall know as we are known.
Low beyond the orient meadows
Floats the golden fringe of day;
Heart to heart we hide the shadows,
Till the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known,
Never more to walk alone,
When the day of light is dawnine,
And the mists have cleared away.

Strange to say, none of the Russian

war. This is almost as wonderful as the
escape of such fighting pa,
triots as Ben. Wade, Zach. Chandler and
Blaine during the war of the rebellion.
AS soon as peace is concluded we shall
be informed that nobody except the

who saved this country from disunion
