How Watch Cases are Made.

The man, great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture Of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led 10 similar inn
provcments in the making Of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of
silver case was made of several pisces Of
metal -oldere.l together, requiring Il great
amount OF cutting and soldering, which
slasnei the metal and gave it the pliability
OF lead rather than the elasticity Of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
Of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
Of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape, The advantages are readily sppar-
snt, for every one knows that hammerin-
hsnlers the metal while soldering soflarsit
TO test the superiority of the Keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of 3 oz. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed,
and il viii not give, while a case of same
weight OF any other make will give enough
tobreak the crystal. The keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints.

Seven singuIar..sisters.
Worcester Spy.l

The seven Sutherland sisters are the
seven hirsute wonders of the country.
When they exhibited in the East some
FIVE years ago their hair was then very
long and flowing, but of course it has
grown several inches. The Omaha Her
aid gives the following particulars of
their capillary attractions: "Sarah n.
Sutherland. the eldest had long, mas
sive and jet.blsck hair, falling below
the waist; Miss Victoria, whose hair is
the longest worn by any woman in the
world, and the longest on record,
shows growth reaching to the length
of seven and q half feet. Miss Isa-
bella's hair, which is of exceeding fine
ness, is more than six feet long; Miss
Grace is pround OF her endowment of
hirsute wealth, which reaches length
of almost six feet; Miss Naomi's hair
which almost touches the ground when
she stands erect, Is the most massive
and beautiful eve- seen upon a wo-
mans head; it is fully elk inches
through, and when spread out covers
her completely like cloak; it is just
such hair as the fair Godiva, who rode
garmentless as to all else through Gov
entry. was gifted with. Miss Dora's
hair is abundant, and five feet long.
Miss Mary is the youngest. Her hair
has already attained a wonderful
growth, and is rapidly tending toward
such length and massiveness as will
make it the most wonderful capillary
decoration the world ever saw. Their
heads are their fortunes in more senses
than one. In Kansas City hair
dresser offered $l,5eO for Miss VIC
toria's hair, and in St. Louis a jeweler
paid $25 for single hair, by which he
suspended ten carat diamond in his
sh7w-window. They are very careful
in guarding their glorious head adorn-
ments as frequent attemps have been
made to cut their hair by villainously
inclined people, who, no doubt, at
tempted the robbery with view to
selling the spoils.

TO have been fifty years ago the theory
that little whisky was death in the

built Of stone, and are of odd shapes,
With overhanging caves Again they

Said ] TO nv man: How did they
distil liquor in those little places?"
"Why, they 6rst gronnd up the
grain in the proportion they wanted
and then let 1t soak in hogshead un.
til it fermented. Then it was put in
mash-tub and boiled until its vapor
went ovet into another place and came
out whisky"
"Do you make any whisky in this
region now?"
"Yes, it is said we make the best

perhaps the best anywhere. know
one man up here near Greencastle, Pa,
who has about one thousand barrels
on hand. Last year he would not dis
til any because the corn was too wet
Every parcel that man sells he takes
sample from and labels it. Some
time ago he sent a barrel to New
York and ne got the sample back
from the barrel, and said he, that
whisky was tampered with on the way.
1t tasted to me as if an old iron nsil
had dropped in it."
My driver then remarked: THE
whisky you get in cities is not ct to
drink. Our ODD distillers in this re-
! gion, of whom there are some left, are
just as honest in making whiskey as if
they made ci Ter or put up canned
pesc les. Their fathers made whisky
before them. Almost every miller
had little still down by the spring
house"
Said l: What do you think about
taking off the internal revenue taxes
and having free whisky"
81 don't know much about it, said
the driver candidly. ut seems strange
that IN q country as big as ours, and
so full of grain, we can not have any
honest liquor. It must be from these
revenue laws. When they put tax
Of $1.59 to So a gallon on whisky,
whiceh only costs so cents @ gallon to
make, there will be sdulterstion of it,
suppose they didn't have the drunk
ards forty years ago that they do now,
nor the new diseases that you hear
sbout."
"How much does that man up in
Pennsylvania ask for whisky?"
"He asks 81 50 gallon now The
internal revenue system gives our
humble. old fashioned distillers q
good deal of trouble. The laws are
30 minute that plain man can hardly
understand them, and they also in
crease the cost of making the
liquor"

The Unfinished Manuscript.

Literary men have, somehow, re-
ceived kind of social black eye; that
is, no one believes that they are quite
as good husbands or as good fathers as
they should be, and from the observa.
tory of casual view, this is correct.
Few people know to what extremities
literary men are reduced. Few, very
few indeed, know how they court the
so called muse OF inclination. The
man who handles the drawing knife or
plane can, if he he in physical condi-
tion, do his work creditably; but the
literary man though he may be in ro-
bust health, and though he may not
have an ache or a pain, Is frequently
unable to do acceptable work. This
is curious freak which no student of
metaphysics can explain, for the mind
of man, although it is constantly be-
coming clearer and more capable of
comprehension, is still something
which a Newton cannot define. nor a
Bacon perfectly explore. A man's
mind seems to have but little to do
with his affections, for, although his
heart may be warm, his words are
, sometimes cold.
