like the fabrication of Damascus steel
and the making of camels-hair shawls,
are marvels of ingenuity and skill, and
they illustrate the poetry of cotton.
The most delicate of these fabrics is
known by the name of woven air." It
can only be made in the early morning
and in the evenings, when the air is full
of moisture and the dew is on the
grass. The processes by which it is
woven are kept secret, and the people
who do the work are compelled first to
pass through long course of training
andsaimitation. Their delicate wares are
OF such ethereal texture as to be almost
invisible, and yet are so enduring that
they will bear washing and wear in a
wonderful manner. This precious stuff
is monopolized for the use of the ladies
of the Oriental harems, and is said to
be worth hundreds of dollars per yard.

One day, children, when the menag-
erie had been quiet for long time, the
hyena was looking so lonesome and
desolate that the elephant said he re-
minded him of the howl of the wilder
ness" every time he spoke. "You can't
prove it." said the hyena. you pel-i-
can," said the elephant, which was
neither good English, good grammar,
nor good fun, and nobody laughed but
the elephant, "dont you know it's no
consequence what you think in this
show?" The bison interfered here, and
said the 'possum might not be very
harte- beast, but he had right to speak
if" Well, we'll, old bufaloafer,"
laughed the elephant, " I reckon you're
here as a bisonifcation of Justice, are
you, you old bison of gun? I'd like
to see anybody pull the wool over your
eyes," The bay mule down in the
corner remarked that he'd like to see
anybody pull the wool on the end of
his tail, but nobody let on they heard
him. Then, when the eagle tried to
say something, the elephant asked him
If he hadn't just got off Sixth Ward
political transparency, ard then said he
thought he remembered seeing him on
a BARRIERS pole. Then the bear spoke
and said they'd had enough of that
nonsense; and the elephant told him
ned better haul himself inside the hat
store before it rained, and asked if soft
felt would be much worn this winter.
And then he finally got the monkey to
crying by calling him Mr.. Darwin, and
telling him he looked enough like
mau to run for Congress. And in a
little while he had the menagerie in
such an uproar that the lights had to
be put out and the people sent home.
Land, yes, children, the trouble they
used to have with the elephant no
tongue can tell. He was always such a
tease.-BOb BaIrdette.

An Injurious Practice.

The practice of eating snow and ice,
so common among the school children
of the Northern States, is a frightful
cause Of catarrh. It is common to see
boys and girls devour SNOWFALL as
though it were an apple, or an icicle as
eagerly as bit of candy. The hard
palate which forms the roof of the
mouth also forms the floor of the
nostrils, and is no thicker than paste
board. The chilling effect of snow and
ice brought freely in contact with this
thin partition, the upper covering of
which is sensitive secreting mem
brane, made up almost wholly of fine
blood-vessels and nerves, produces q
congestion, often succeeded by chronic
Inflammation. As consequence, these
snow and ice eating boys and girls
almost always have "colds in the head"
and running noses. This is the foun-
dation and origin Of one of the most
disagreeable, persistent and incurable
affections to which the people of the
North are subject = nasal catarrh.
Catarrh is said to lead to consumption.
Whether this is so or not, the chilling
of the nasal membranes, a part of
whose function it is TO warm the air in
it's passage to the lungs, cannot but
injure those organs, particularly in
people of delicate constitution
