eyes, Oyster-fed 'pOssums. We get
them from the eastern shore Of Maryland.
1t would do your heart good to see pos
sum tackle to an oyster. This is the way
it is done. At low tide in the night the
animals come down to the Shore, and,
crawling to the beds left dry by the reced-
ing tide, select their oysters. a 'pOssum
who has been at the business for some
time goes at his work in very methOdi-
cal manner. First he gets his oyster in a
favorable position; then he lies down near
it and gently tickles the she'll with his
tail. If the oyster is a sensitive and WELL
behaved shell-fsh-and Maryland oysters
generally are-it Will begin to open its
shell under the pleasant Utilization. The
'pOsSum-like 'pOssum is not too hastv.
but discreetly continues the operations
until the oysters mouth is agape with
pleasure. Then with quick motion Of
his paw a surprised and shelless oyster is
landed plump on the shore. Then the
'possum leisurely takes his meat. Yes,
sir, the love of the 'possum for the Mary
land oyster is only exceeded by the desire
of the average division worker to 90 on

shrinking Cassiowary, who always looked
as if he had just jumped out of his skin
and did not like il.
$50 delighted to see you, Duchess"
murmured Mrs. Dalmayne.
She had just been going to say "dear
Duchess but had fortunately checked
herself in time.
II am so glad you have come aprOpOs
for La Scala's great scena."
The Duchess smiled blandly, saying
how pleased she was TO make the ac-
quaintance of lady of whom she had
heard so much.
.These are my two daughters, Ermyn-
trude and GwendOline, widely differing in
tastes and pursuit, but one in love for me-"
signing softly.
A slight feeling Of surprise, il not dis
appointment, flashed through the Duchess.
She had expected touZled hair, waistess,
clinging garments, hollow eyes, and a
cough: here were two blooming, if a lit
tie mature, damsels, arTayed in gowns of
texture and fit such as her own
daughter, Sarah, could never, owing to
bad times and no rents, hope to wear.
Her curiosity was, however, soon salts
fed in the contemplation of her fellow
guests. So interested did she become in
the poetess, who, under the ducal eyes,
shifted uneasily about in her Grecian
robes, and for the first time in her life felt
rather foolish, and so wrapped up in the
man who poisoned his wife, eagerly
pointed out to her by Cassiowarv, that
She nearly forgot her hostess sitting be-
side her, pouring into one ear a soft muir
muir of small talk that went out at the
other.
La Scala's scena exhausted every one,
including the substantial eXecutant, but
the Duchess had heard none Of it, so en-
crossed was she in the phase of lite just
opened to her.
"This is delightfulw she murmured.
Mrs. Dalmayne caught the mutter and
responded effusiyely:
II am so glad you like these interesting
people, Duchess. l am quite wrapped up
in them. 1t is only in London l indulge
my love for art. In dear Abergowrie-
(sigh we are so taken up with the
country and our teuantry that we have no
time for such luxury"
The Duchess pTicked up her ears.

Practical Fire.Escnnes.

10 the Editor Of Iha EUentng Critic:
In visiting tho hotels, flats, public and pri-
vate buildings a great need Of proper means
of escape In case Of a sudden connagration
Will be apparent. Many OF tho large cities
can record their disastrous 1res, and now that
this city is assuming large proportions the
public press may at any time record a confla-
grafton to rival the Milwaukee hotel, the New
York Park Row or Providence jewelry factory
nres In all their horror. Many buildings are
provided with Iron ladder and balcony escapes,
but they are not general enough to AFFORD i'm.
mediate exit; In fact were they placed on all
sides OF hotel, at the ends of tho hallwaye,
what good would they be should the nre gain
such headway as to I'LL the halls with dense
smoke and intense heat, Such Ia generally
the case long before occupants OF rooms are
aware OF their peril, and were their rooms
each supplied with permanent, strong rope
escapes every occupant could escape In the
fraction OF minute by tho window.
In the Newhall House fire every life could
have been saved had there been n general pro-
vision of such escapes. Three escapes would
have saved every'llfe at tho Park Row fire.
What is the cost OF these escapes? Compare
them with the cost of n suitable number OF
iron balconies, say on Wizards; there should
be at lenst six In number, which, In accord
ance TO the style OF building, would cost fully
$4,000 and be an eyesore. Two hundred and
tify rope escapes, most approved kind, would
cost not over $3.50. The six iron balconies
could not put on the ground 800 persons In
less than twenty minutes the $50 rope es-
capes would lower 500 persons In one minute,
and more safely. Most of the Northern and
western cltleS nave adopted tneso escapes.
There are Il great many kinds, some more per-
feet than others. A rope escape is probably the
best-one that Is provided with sling
attached to metallic slide, which
con be checked either by the person descend
ing or by persons In the street; 1t is provided
with handles and is very enlclent; It's cost at
retail is about $3.50 for sixty feet OF rope,
and TO large buildings buying by the hundred
might possibly be had for $3.50 each. There
are over, 5000 OF these In use In New York
alone, and fully 500 exhibitions have been
made with safety from buildings 150, $50,
200 and 21O feet In height, and in each In
stance In few seconds, not exceeding
twenty-five. The different legislatures have
passed bills compelling all hotels. factories,
nats, boarding houses and office buildings to
be properly supplied with suitable rope es-
capes, and our Congress should also pass such
bill. Rope escapes without slide attach
ments should be at least A.incn In thickness
TO insure grip. Where the slide Is used a
rope capable OF standing GOO pounds is all
that is necessary. Buildings properly
equipped with rope escapes should be exempt
from putting up iron balcony and ladder es.
capes, as they are impracticable.

AT the same time with the sensible decision
