A Paper Stove.

Perhaps the most remarkable objec,
ever fashioned from paper was a fire.
stove with cheerful fire burning In it.
We have from time to time noted the an.
, nouncements of ewly-invented railway
carriages and carriage wheels, chimney
pots, -four barrels, cottage walls, roofing
tiles, and bricks and tiles for stamping,
all made of paper. A material capable
of 30 many uses, 80 diversified in char
acter, is obviously destined to play very
important part IN our manufacturing fu-
ture. Articles of this kind which have
just now perhaps the greatest interest,
and which are among the latestlnoselties
IN this way, are paper "blankets." |" aAt-
tention has frequently been called to the
value of ordinary sheets of paper as a
substitute for bed clothes, or, at least, as
an addition to bed clothes. The idea
seems to have suggested the fabrication
of "blankets" from this cheap material
The fact that they are not as durable as
the genuine article is in their favor. as,
in the case of the very poor, where the
same bedding is used for, years, q very
cheap material that will last only a COM
paratvely short lime must be better than
durable articles that are rarely or never
washed. J-13 - -s-. r.

!. Breeding Elephants.

Il, as Mr.. Corse and the London Cir
Gus seem to have demonstrated, ele-
phants, under proper conditions, may be
brought to breed In captivity, it may be
an open question whether, In view of the
increased difficulty of capturing the ami
mails, the supply IN India may, at no
distant day, be wholly dependent upon
their power to produce their young in
bondage. Mr.. Oorse's experience en-
abled him to study the young elephant
from its birth under extraordinarily ad-
yantageous conditions. The precise
period Of cessation, he says, is twenty
months and eighteen days. The young
animal when born lis thirtysfye and a
half inches highs It soon begins to nib
sble and suck the breast, pressing It with
its trunk to make the milk flow more
readily into. the mouth while sucking.
It has never been observed to use its pro-
boscis IN any other way during this act,
but invariably seized the nipple with the
side of its mouth. AT this period it is a
common practice with the elephant at
tendants to raise a small mound of earth
about SIX, or eight inches high, for the
young one to stand on, and thus save the
mother the trouble Of bending her body
every time she gives suck; for she never
has,been, observed to lie down for that
purpose. The nipples are two in num-
ber and are between the fore legs.
It Is remarkable that the elephant,

His Business.

/ A few months ago a conductor on one
of the Chicago street-cars suddenly ex-
iperienced religion and joined q small
flock In the neighborhood of his resi-
dence. None more deyout than he was
to be found in the country around, and
every spare moment from his business
was put into something energetic toward
strengthening up the little church into
which he had projected himself. Motto
ing his interest, his pastor, to encourage
him, showed, him along all heaceuh, and
in q short time the new convert was a
shining light smong his fellow-worship-
pers, and the Christian grace with which
he passed the contribution-plate evoked
nickles from what before had besn bar

Won q Wife by His Tongue.

A frisky old bachelor who lives above
Willow Ranch commenced correspond
enee with a girl living in the east a
short time ago, and finally proposed to
her that if she would come out to Cali
fornia he would marry her. She con-
sented, and he remitted the money to
her. She arrived in Reno, Nevada, and
stopped over few days to rest While
there she heard bad accounts of Modoc;
was told that the elevated portion of the
country was buried under snow, and the
low-lands were, deep under water; that
flour and sugar there were none, and
when the sun sets the natives go to bed
on account of not having lights. The
vile wretch who slandered (O Modoc to
her had an ak to grind. After thoroughly
soaring her out of the idea of coming to

Finishing.


Every one is familiar with the word
flash, as applied to the crimsoned cheeks,
when the minute capillaries, before in
visible, become suddenly gorged with
blood. The sudden full inflow is the
leading idea. g

piled to the cleansing Of sewers by a
3copious amount of water suddenly le4
into. them, and which stirs up the foul
contents and bears them before it in its
rush. ,,s,a.s - 49, - ...;,.,,...5. s
d This method of cleansing the sink and
soi-pipes of our dwellings, should be
systematically and thoroughly employed
An ordinary stream will fiow over the
sediment, and allow it to accumulate SO
as, in time, to gil and always to besend-
ing back its odor to the house. The diff
ficulty is increased In our sink-pipes, by
the carelessness of servants in allowing
peelings, parings, and bits generally, to
enter the pipe, and by the many greasy
particles which constantly pass down -
1t is well, once or twice week, ITO re-
move the .strainer, and having filed s

latter into the sink at once, at the same
time opening the faucet TO the boiler, and
allowing the whole to run two or three
minutes. This VIII dissolve the greasy

render the pipe clean andisweet. 81 :
The word, of late, has been happily
applied to the proper airing Of q room by
opening the door and the windows In the
front and rear, 30 as to secure, as far as
possible, a full rush of the air through.
This is the more necessary, since the

full story of fraud and outrage perpe-
