An Important Errand.

A conductor on a Missouri, Kansas &
IeXas train approached a swell looking
colored woman, arrayed in the glories
chat ribbons can lend, and asked her for
her ticket
go way fun yah! Don bodder me
with none yo' foolishness!n she exclaim-
ed, bridling with indignation.
Come, give up your ticket!'' remon-
strated the conductor.
81 tole yo' go way fun Y ah! I done
got no ticket, an don want no fool

''If you don't give me ticket or pay
your fare, I'll put you off the trainn'
growled the exasperated functionary.
"Yo' don put me off no train. now, I
tole yo' for suah!' retorted the darkey.
Ise got dizziness down we're dat YOU
can't postpone. Eff you put me off de
train, yo' done got in a fuss, suah's yo'

Where are you going anyway?

conductor, rather impressed by her man.

Whore they going to hang?" asked
a passenger, who had become interested
in the discussion.
''Dey's gwine fer ter hang my hus-
band, and Ise ter be de only lady pres

have last opportunity to get square
with her mother-in-law, was not appar-

The Manufacture of Ven oerinC,


1.-The demand for line woods" said
the New York furniture man, lis in
creasing every year. The finest and
costliest is French walnut. which, by
the way, is not French at all, but is
product of Oriental countries. 1t grows
in Persia, Circassia and Asia Minor.
You have seen it in veneering upon
costly furniture, but you probably have
no notion how expensive it is, nor how
careful we are to prevent waste 10 its
use. Come into our work-rooms and
| will let you see it in process Of cut
ting"
He led the way into some extensive
rooms. where ponderous machinery was
revolving, and heavy chains rafting.
In one room steam rose from cracks in
the floor.
''Down there" said the gentleman,
sis pit where we lay large and valua-
BILE logs and subject them to the action
of steam until they become almost as
soft as butter. Then we take them out,
fasten them to an iron beam (here he
led the way into another room), and
this beam revolves around a finely
tempered knife, Of the same length as
the log"
With each revolution a strip of wood
was shaved off smoothly and laid in
piles upon the floor like skins Of leath-
re or sheets of paper.
Every time this beam turns around
it moves fraction of an inch nearer to
the knife. The whole apparatus works
with extreme precision. No printing
press or weaving machine is made with
greater nicely. The knife that shaves
IF the sheets of wood is rigidly immov-
able, and ground to razor-edge. The
heavy beam that revolves with its great
load of timber is firmness itself and is
regulated like clockwork The slightest
tremor in the beam or knife would
break and twist the thin sheets that you
see turned off here with the regularity
and perfection of newspapers turned
out by the printing press. These sheets
are about 1-120 of an inch in thick
ness, but frequently We shave off veneers
as thin as Us to the inch"
He lifted corner of one of the long
sheets, and it seemed to be about the
thickness of ordinary writing paper.
The wood was warm and pliable.
1T is only in this condition that this
shaving process is possible. When
fresh from the steam pit the knife slips
easily through it. Were the wood cold
and hard the process would be impossi-
BILE. Even if the knife could do the
work the sheets would be too brittle
and would crumble into small frag-

How She Kept Him at Home,

heard good story the other day
about venerable ex-member of Con-
gress from Pennsylvania, who has been
married twice, and has for his second
wife a lively young lady who is extrem-
ely fond of social gayeties. Not long
ago she made an engagement to accom-
pany ayoung naval officer to one of the
fashionable balls, and told her husband
she was going, but neglecting to say
that she had secured an escort. He APP
peared to be pleased and said that he
would accompany her. This was more
than she had - gained for, and she re-
sorted to various expedients to get him
to stay at home. The more reasons she
gave, the more he was determined to 90.
Things were getting desperate when a
bright idea struck her. She took the
old gentleman S false teeth and hid them,
and when the evening came he was still
without those necessary adjuncts to
mastication. He wondered and raved,
and raved and wondered, but it was
no use, he couldn't find them, and final
ly was obliged to remain at home, while
ais wife tripped gaily to her carriage,
and spent most delightful evening"

A Terrible Future.

A famous English statistician has re.
Gently been drawing a dismal pictI. g
of the future of the human race. He
says population is increasing so rapidly
that consumption will soon overtake
production, and that great suffering will
result. In former times wars, pesti-
lences and famines put check to the
increase of population, and permitted
the raising of sufficient food to supply
those who survived these calamities.
Twelve millions of the people of Great
Britain are absolutely dependent on food
grown in other parts of the world; there
would be starvation in Germany were it
not for the large emigration. France
alone has discovered the secret of limit
ing her population, but it is at the ex-
pense of the morals of large sections of
the community. The troubles in Rus
STA are due, in great part, to the taking
up of all arabic land in that country, for
the population has increased there pro-
digiously during the last half-century.
But in no country is there such multi
plication of human beings as in the Uni
ted States If we increase in the future
as we have in the past, we shall have a
hundred millions of people early in the
twentieth century, two hundred millions
by 1925, and eight hundred millions by
1875. The country will then be more
densely populated than is China, and
the standard of comfort will be lowered
as the price of land goes up, while the
working classes will be subject to the
most distressing privations. In India
to-day the increase of inh Infants ia %
rapid that the government is appalled,
and does not know what to do. 1t is
trying to increase the amount of arabic
land by great irrigating works, We. the
population increases at the rate of one
million per annum, and the multi.
plication of human beings is more rapid
than the additions to food production.

Journal has been investigating the mys-

he found out about jam. He says tur-
nips furnish the chief staple used for
producing currant, plum, apricot, rasp-
berry and gooseberry jam. An artificial
tiavoring matter was used, which is pro-
duced from coal tar, and the small seeds
of cheap and harmless herb are mixed
in the preparation to render the decep-
ton more complete. The only honest
thing used was sugar of common
grade. The products were sold as from

Domesticated Wild Geese,

j. Harry Smith, at the mouth of Club
foot creek, has the biggest flock of tanned
wild geese it has ever been our luck to
behold. We saw them in pond in his
field swimming around in their antics.
From the best count we could make in
their frolicsome manner there are about
twenty in the flock. In this connection
we mention two peculiarities of the wild
goose which may not be known to the
general reader. One is that they do not
mate until they are 8 years old, conse-
quently can not be raised from till the
third year. The second singularity of
this species is that if one loses its mate
it never takes another. Second mar
riage is not tolerated by them.-Neao-

this means of attesting our high opinion
of Hinrichs' american Corn Cure. Our
opinion of its value in removing COrns

WALTHAM, MASS.

This case is formed in one solid piece
without Joint or seam, opening in front
onlg, thus avoiding the usual Cap. and
securing greater strength and durability.
These watches are all open face. The
bezel, into which an extra strong crystal
is fitted with an especially prepared water
proof cement, is attached to the case by
screwing it thereon, and thus forms an
air tight junction with the body of the
case, which is proof against dust and
moisture.
To railroad men, travellers, miners,
iumbermen and others who are almost
constantly exposed and who have to mata
frequent reference to the watch, these
qualities are of the utmost Importance.
