A STEAMER recently carried out fifteen
car. loads of Michigan oak lumber, sawed
to dimensions and billed through to
Glasgow, to be used in constructing
railway cars. 1t is believed that this
order will be followed by others, because
our Northern oak possesses qualities
much sought after by builders, but not
found in British lumber, save that
which commands very high price.
About $1,000, 900 worth of wood and

Carry home the lady's basket;

One great handle can you ask it?

Feeling, oh so brave and strong,
Little Hans was softly singing
To himself little song.
"Some time I'll be tall a. father,
Though l think it's very funny,
And III work and build big houses,
And give mother all the money.

THERE is still much superstition in
China and Japan. The fox is credited
with many marvellous and supernatural
attributes, among which is the ability
at the age of 80 to take the form of a
woman, and at 100 that of young and
beautiful girl. He can also become q
wizard if he likes, and at the age Of
1000 years is admitted into paradise,
where he becomes celestial being.
There is presumptive evidence that foxes
rarely reach the age of 100 years in
China or Japan.

A LONDON paper says The celebrated
Vienna surgeon, Prof. Billroth, has at
present in his hospital a case which will
shortly create some sensation in the
medical world. One of his patients has
been in the habit, for the last six years,
of "rinsing" his stomach daily. This
manipulation, one of the wonders of
modern therapeutics, consists in insert
ing tube into the stomach, through
the gullet, and pouring lukewarm or
indicated water through the tube, by
means of funnel, till the stomach is
full. Then, by simply lowering the end
of the tube to the waist, siphon is
formed, and the stomach is emptied.
The patients who undergo this operation
suffer mostly from chronic catarrh of the
digestive organs. The process is so SIM
pie that they soon learn to perform it
unaided, and this was the case with the
aforementioned patient. Unfortunately
for him, he had not thought it necessary
or did not possess the means OF purchas
ing new tube, but contented himself
with mending, and patching, and tying
defective parts with thread. The newt
able took place. A portion of the tube,
measuring eight inches at least, re-
NAMED in his stomach, and he is now
awaiting Prof. Billroth's decision as to
the best means of treatment. The skill
ful surgeon is still hesitating between
the two courses open TO him he must
either attempt to extract the intruder
through the nsophagus, with the help of
gastroscopy, or he must resort to gas
tronomy. Meanwhile the patient enjoys

was literally torn to pieces by a black
bear that he recklessly attacked at Lake
Piseco, in the Adirondacks. MIR. Mill
ken was enjoying himself in the North
Woods hunting and fishing with party
of business men which included w. Will
kinson. of Birmingham, Ct, and Messrs.
Dixon, Fountain and Watson, of Phila-
delphia. A guide named James Shires
was also present. They had four dogs
with them, and they struck the trail OF
a bear, which they followed up. The
guide warned them that bears were ugly
at this time of the year, and it was very
hazardous to attack one silgly. MILL
ken announced he was not afraid and
could get out of the way of any bear.
He followed the dogs closely, and they
found two big bears and three cubs in a
few minutes. The bears attacked the
dogs and soon tore them to pieces, while
Milliken fired at them in vain. The
shaggy monsters then gave their atten-
ton to their human assailant, and III a
very few minutes literally tore him to
pieces. The guide rushed to the rescue
and was badly lacerated but not fatally
injured, brought his trusty rifle to bear
and shot the male bear dead, while al
most simultaneously Fountain and Will
kinson dispatched the female. The cubs
were captured alive. The male bear
weighed 400 pounds and the female 300
The remains of the unfortunate Mr..
Alilliken were brought out of the woods
by his companions and forwarded to

PINS, PAST IND PRESENT.
Each Romans Yearly AIzO,cance-Fdcts
About the Manufacture.

~so"s pObtt"S LtUry htscttuHtO"XUS so
about the Manufacture.
[From the New York SUM-
TIC the young lady whose intricate
overskirt is held in innumerable folds
by many pins, it may seem hardship
that her yearly allowance of pins is only
about 140. Such, however, is the case
with each individual in the United
States on an equitable division of the
pins yearly sold in this country. But
the Indians in the West are not sup
posed to use their full allowance, and
collar buttons have so far done away
with the use of pins by gentlemen gen.
orally that the young lady may perhaps
provide herself with some one else's
allowance. The pins used in the United
States are made by fourteen factories,
somewhat scattered as to locality, but
chiefly i'll New England. Their annual
production for several years past has
been about 7,OO0,OOO,OO0 pins. This
number has not varied much for some
years, the demand remaining about the
same. A few of these 1000, 900, 900 are
swallowed by children, number are
bent up in schools and placed in vacant
and inviting chairs, and some millions
get into the cracks OF floors, and the rest
for the most part are scattered along the
hyways and highways, where they have
dropped from dresses and been left to
work their way into the earth.
Two years ago the competition among
the nine principal companies then ex-
listing for the manufacture of toilet pins
led to such cutting of prices that the
business became Improbable, and the
market was flooded with goods. Dealers
who were shrewd laid in stock, and fam
lilies even bought in wholesale quantities
for future needs A year ago COM
bination was formed of three wire COM
panies, and now all of the pins made by
them are shipped to New York, and ham
died by the head agency in this city.
From their common warehouse they are
sent to every part of the country in
quantities varying according to the fe-
male population.
The importations Of English pins are
small, and the expectation of pins from
the United States is confined to Cuba.
South America and parts of Canada,
where, however, but few pins are sent.
England supplies almost the whole
world outside Of the United States. al
though it is claimed that the American
pins are not inferior in quality. Quality,
however, is matter which but slightly
concerns the retail buyer. To him
paper Of pins is a paper Of pins SO long
as they don't have heads on both ends.
The raw material-the brass and iron
wire from which all American pins are
made-is from the wire mills of this
country, and much Of the machinery for
their manufacture is of American inven-
ton and patent.

at least he was not ON this occasion.
There was nothing In his sermon excit-
ing enough to pull the string" The
same writer credits Talmage with mem.
orizing his sermons so perfectly that,
without copy or notes, his delivery Is
almost sentence for sentence, identical
with the manuscript which he has stu
died. "When it is considered, he says,
"thaJ the, longest role in play seldom
equals sermon In length, and that the
actor is aided by the breaking up Of his
lines into dialogue, by the dramatic sit
uations in which he Is placed, and by
the prompter, whenever his recollection
fails, then Talmage's two feats of mem
ory every Sunday may be fully compre.
