Vines on Houses.

1t is generally supposed, says the
american GardeR, that vines make
houses damp, for which reason there
are not nearly as many cottages and
houses beautified with vines as there
should be. 1t is only when the climb
ers are allowed to cover the caves aud
obstruct the cutters, or find their way
under the shingle, that they become
Objectionable, and these conditions
should, of course. be carefully guarded
against. The Gdrdener'S MOathly's
remarks in this respect are well taken
wines should always be kept cut down
below the roof. Ii is little trouble TO
do this once a year, but we cannot get
even our shoes blackened without some
trouble. Those who know how beau

lobor it requires to keep vines from

hour later, an engine passing the house on its

PECULIARiTIEs oFACTREssEs.

There is one class of women who cannot
be said to move dress, or live as others do
observes writer in tho Cleveland Herald
These Of whom write are actresses. They
live in an atmosphere of their own, if may
use the trite expression Every man who
lives at hotel has chances to see these wom-
en-. Their manners are loud as their dress,
and the latter sometimes very scanty. They
del ght in going to the table in wrappers
and other garments of unusual character,
and seem to enjoy the attention and COM
ments their presence creates. l have a
theory on the causes of all this. I. is that
no woman can live and move among fan
tastic things without being permeated by
the spirit of her surrounding. This spirit
is not entirely acquired by the psople of
the stage. Some popularity in their make
up leads them first to adopt the stage. Once
upon it, the influences brought to bear take
possession of them, and they become act
resses in real life. Often they are not good
ones on the stage, but take care to carry
out the impression that they are of the
stage, as far as possible, when they are not
upon it. 1t is pity that this weakness is
20 openly shown But there are many wom-
en- of the stage who are bright and good.

AM Ell ICAN WATCH CO.,
WAITHAM MASS

This case is formed in one solid piece
without joint or seam, opening in front
only, 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
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.
lumbermen and others who are almost
constantly exposed aud who have to make
frequent reference to the watch, these
qualities are of the utmost Importance.
