The Story Of Jacquard's Loom.
] A great Improvement had been effect:

A great i6iprptems snt had been effect;
ed in the weaving Of silk BY a native oil
Lyons, named Joseph Marie jacquard.
This poor artisan was born and bred a
silk weaver, but had also heen,s book.
binder and type-founder and cutter be
fore his eyalightsd onoa paragraph in
an English newspaper, stating that the
society of arts offered a reward to, any,
one who should invent a. machine FOR
weaving nets. Induced to~try hls..me,
chanical skill, jacquard, in. 1902, con.
structed a loom which effected the pur.
pose; but thinking little of his inven-
tion, he laid, it aside, and the original
machine was either lost or destroyed
But by some means or other the net he
had made found its way to Paris, and
when he had almost forgotten the piece
Of mechanism, jacquard, to his surprise,
was one day, summoned In the presence
Of the Iprefect Of the department., who,
after questioning him about the inven.
tion and discovering That it could not
be found, somewhat peremptorily or.
dsred him to make another. After the
expiration of three weeks Jaeqiard Ire.
turned, with the machine, and a few
days subsequent he was arrested aad dis
patched to Paris in charge Of gendarms
There he was introduced to Bonaparte
and Carnot, the latter salating him with
the query; I"Are the man who pretends
to do. what God Almighty cannot do,
tie a knct in a stretched stringp Jac
guard replied that he could only do
what God had taught Inn to dc, and
proceeded to explain the working Of his
machine, The Emperor rewarded the
inventor with pension Of 1000 crowns,
gave him employment in the Conserva-
tories des Arts, and made strenuous ef-
forts to get the jacquard loom adopted;
but this was a task that almost over
taxed his power, and in which he only
partially succeeded The intention en-
countered great hostility in France, and
especially in Lyons, where the Conseil
des Prud'homes broke it to bits in one
Of the public squares, and denounced
jacquard as man worthy Of universal
ignominy. 1t was in st. Etlenne, the
chief rival Of Lyons in the silk manu-
factures; that the jacquard loom was
first generally adopted, and when the
inventor died, in 1884, few Of the fruits
Of his discovery were visible. i Casselps

Old Bazembee Makes a Reputation


h Old Bazembee had returned from th,
club the other evening, when as he hung
up his overcoat on the hall hat-rack and
prepared to go up stairs, he heard such
strangely excited voices in the front
parlor that he paused to listen. v aa.
A voice that he recognized at once as
belonging To- that fast looking young
Snyder he had warned Maria to be care
full about, said contemrtuously: ,'
"Peace, woman, and weary me no
longer with your reproaches. / tell you
the day Of my wedding with Alice Mon
tressor is fixed, and by heavens, nothing
shall prevent our union"
Could these words be addressed to his
own daug ghterl Yes, it was indeed
Maria's sob-chGked tones that replied: .
u"This then, is the reward for my sac
rifce, my devotion Ruined and for
saken, you taunt me with your latest
conquest Monster, coward p ''''1 Z p"
p 1t only required few seconds for
Bazembee to rush up stairs and get his
shotgun out Of the closet. The next
moment he burst inso the parlor with
blazing eyes, and, hurting the black
hearted betrayer to the foor he placed
the muzzDe of his breechloadsr at his
temple, kissing; Jarast.u .Ii J. s9a.a

What Wives are Worth.

The value Of wives varies in different
countries. In America they are often
expensive companions, but In the, higher
regions of the river Amar, and on the
Ussdri, in Siberia, according to informa-
tion furnished to the British Scientific
Association by the Reverend Henry
Landsell, the price of wife is eight or
ten dogs, asledge or two cases Of brandy.
In another part of the world, according
to evidence furnished to the same asso-
citation by Wilfred Powell, in New
Britain and the nsighboring islands of
the South Pacific, on the east. coast Of
Guinea, the wives are the absolute prop
erty of their husbands, and are bought,
sold and eaten by their better halves.
There was one, New Britain young
women who rebelled at her matrimonial
relations, whereupon her husband said
he could put her to better use, and
straightway killed and ate her. 'Unfor!
tunately, according to the same autor-
ity,a the eating in New Britain is not
confined to wives. The natives are fond
Of missionary meat, and think the En-
gish' ore unutterably stupid because
they are unwilling to feast on such q
delicacy as the human thigh, prepared
with cocoanut milk and dressed with
banana leaves. Mr.. Powell does not
advise women to. enigrate to New.

Afghan Soldiers.

4 The relations between the officers and
men femind one of those existing in the
Turkish army. If an Afghan officer
drinks tea number of soldiers are sure
to sit around him. If he smokes kali,
ano, all the soldiers gather near him and
wait their turn; the kaliaro having gone
che round Of the privates, returns again
To The officer. If a soldier smokes Q pipe
the ofiicer asks him to let him have a
draw out of it Should soldier take
from the folds of his dress tobacco
pouch, i'll order to put plug Of tobacco
under his tongue, the officer inserts his
finger and thumb into the pouch and
also takes pinch. On the other hand
should the officer take out his own pouch
'the, soldier helps himself in similar
manner. l did not observe that this
mutual freedom of manner had any det
rimental effect on the discipline of the
troops. The men obeyed the commands
of their officers with docllity, and never
displayed dinsubordination onwhensentenced
to be thrashed. Indeed, it is exceeding
ly rare that officers employ the lash.
During the whole Of my sojourn in AT
ghanistan, l only saw the punishment
inflicted twice; on both occasions on men
who had stolen hay from my horses. -

his his pocket and forgot all about it, and
,hus M Lord Beacons6sld's views failed to
zach the members Of the House of
Peers in due time. The incident in it.
elf was trihing, but does not stand
alone in history. M. Fournier wrote a
nook on events which never took place,
and Lord Bsaconsfelds father was the
author of learned essay on history
which might have been enacted, An

that gave Spain for SO many genera
tions the lordship Of the New World
and enabled her by the wealth which
she derived from that source to become
the most powerful nation in Europe.
T. is we'll known that Columbus, 2is-
nrited with rsfusals which he met at 20
many courts, dispatched his brother,
Bartolomeo to ask aid from Henry VII,
Of England! But on the way the mes
senger fell into the hands of pirates and
bv the time he reached London was 80
destitute that he had to try and earn
the money to clothe himself in proper
style before he. could be presented at
court. But by that time it was too
late Even the fact that Ferdinand
and Isabella supplied the funds to equip
the expedition was mainly due to the
accident that Juan, Peres de Malchena,
the Queens confessor, happened to be
passing at the moment when the weary
mariner was shocking at the door Of
La Rabida Monastery to beg Little
bread and water for his boy Diego, and
was struck with the noble face Of the
dusty pedestrian. Had Bartolomeo
Colon reached London in time, had
Christoval been by any chance little
latar or little earlier at the monastery
door, the fate of Europe might have
been changed, and the destinysof the
Anglo Saxon race, altered. Three CEN

What "Chic" Is

A writer in the Figaro has recently
produced an article on chic, in which he
lays down some awohderfnl preceTts for
the guidance and education Of the ''sslt
OF the earth" Chic appears to be about
as difficult to define az, the '"salt of the
earth )" it is neither nobility nor distinc.
ton, nor beauty, nor opulence, nor wit;
it is chic. It Is Chic to be noble, but all
mobiles are not chic, A very chic educa-
ton, according to the Figaro, is to have
a private tutor first and to finish with
the Jesuits or the 'Dominicans. 1t is
chic to play at billiards; dominoes or
draughts are not chic. A man who
wishes to be chic must sneverswss.r q

line and his socks must be Of, silk. The
article continues in the same sickenipg
strain concerning rings yliveries, scarf
pins, servants, and all the little details
Of the life of superior persons. i
Happily the writer cites somo models
Of chic. The Due do Morny was the
most chic Of politicians; the Marquis
de Gallifet is the.most chic of generals.
Amongst the diplomatists che Duo Deca-
zes has much chic. NJ Challenael Lacour
