D,,tIlIIng Altar OF Roses,

s'Genuine altar Of roses," remarked
a New York chemist, (which Is made
in India and Australia. costs SlOO an
ounce at the places of distillation. 1t
takes $4,000 rose blooms to yield an
ounce of altar. They are the common
roses, and grow in great profusion In
California, where the distillation of at
tar could be made very profitable in
dustry. / have seen hedge-rows near
Samona, in that State, so dense with
these roses that the odor from them on
a warm, sultry day caused a feeling Of
peculiar faintness and oppression In the
passer-by. This is the effect of the at
tar that is distilled by the neat and
moist air, and is held suspended, as 1t
were. in the atmosphere.
"There is money in that cause OF
faintness and incidence, but in this
country not only the sweetness, but the
great value of the flowers. Is wasted on
the desert air. In Northern India the
roses are regularly cultivated. They
are planted in rows in fields, and require
no particular care. When they begin
to bloom they are picked before mid
day, The work is done by women and
children. who seem to regard it more
as a pleasure than a pursuit OF labor.
The rose leaves are distilled in twice
their weight of water, which is drawn
off into open vessels. These are allow
ed TO stand over night, being covered
ND with cloths to keep out dirt and in
sects. In the morning the water IS
coated with thin oily film. This is
the rare altar of rose. 1t is SKINNED
off with a fine feather and dropped into
vials. The process continues daily until
the bushes cease to bloom. So it may
well be imagined that any essence or oil
that requires the distilling of 10000 roses
to Gil an ounce vial has right to have q
good price set upon it."

Actors Signatures.

Joe Jefferson's penmanship would be
almost undecipherable If the name we're
not recognized by the J's and rs. Those
letters seemed strung along In an ink
wave.
Charles Wyndham has breezy sig
nature that wanders up the page in an
erratic sort of way, but can be quite
easily interpreted.
Billy Florence writes his name with
out allowing the pen to leave the paper
until all is over. 1t is therefore hard
to read.
Rose Eytinge's signature is In wood
type size of letter, with dash Of di-
plomacy and a shrek Of emotion In
every character.
John Mccullough is not good PEN
man, the letters are not more than half
formed. and look rude enough to have
been written with a shovel; still they
are plain.
Margaret Mather's signature is very
sick-looking. The writing is that OF a
novice and the poorest In the whole
collection.
There is a great deal Of dialect in
Fanny Janauscheck's signature. 1t Is
about three-fourths German and the
rest a mixture of Fulton street and the
United states.
Edwin Booths cranky signature
starts in wildly by jumbling the first
three letters hopelessly together, but
comes out clearly and distinctly in the
last name, and winds up with a great
flourish across the paper.
Thomas w. Keene's signature is IN
strange contrast with the style of his
acting. Not a flourish mars it, and
nobody would take it to be the hand
writing of voracious scene-eater.
j. III. Stoddart, the comedian of the
Union Square company, is little ner-
vous in handling his pen, but signs his
name in a neat, round hand, not unlike
Oscar Wilde's style of penmanship.
James O'NeIl, one of Americas rep
resentative actors, would not represent
his country very well in writing con
test. His style is large and unshapely,
and the signature is made without lift
ing the pen.
j. X. Emmet writes his name in a
large, angular hand, the initial letters
being tangled up as cleverly as any
bank signature that was eyer seen.
Stuart Robson makes separate start
at each letter in his name, and is quite
dudesque in his signature.
w. Ii. Crane writes plain. round
back-hand, and finishes with flourish
under the signature.
Alice Harrison signs herself in a
manly way for the whole family, which
includes herself and her two clever
brothers. "Three Of kind" is what
she calls the group.
Maggie Mitcheh's signature is PLAIN
ami unassumife, as she Is herself.
MOdjeska writes a pretty hand, but
foreign. Helene Modjeska" is the
way she puts it.
Jeffreys Lewis writes a big. bold
hand, and evidently means it, too.

A Turkish Horse Seller.

The owner was called for, and a
strapping fellow about 10 years Of age
approached. He was attired in the
Turkish costume, consisting of short
Jacket, blue vest embroidered and cov-
cred with bell buttons, baggy breeches,
yellow sash, goatskin boots, and red
fez: his hair was short, face dark, with
bright cleaning eyes, and fierce mus
tache. He was above the medium size,
and withal a pleasant-looking fellow.
"NOw, my son." said the captain,
show much do you ask for the horse2"
Making a salaam the Kurd answered:
"Master, If thy servant hath found
favor in thine eyes, thou shalt have the
horse for 200 sequins."
80, Father OF the faithful, hear the
thiefl" shouted the old fellow with the
swivel neck. Two hundred sequins for
the brute, when L will sell my beauti-
full beast for 100."
"You ask too much, my son." said
the captain.
Thou seest, o Frangistani, that my
horse is swift as an arrow from the
bow, and that he springeth like q jackal.
See his loins; they are in strength as
the lion."
~ see all these things o child Of the
Faithful, but yet thou sskest too
much"
"well, please Gcd, thou wilt buy
him for $50 sequins."
"Now, may dogs defile thy grave,
thou robbeIl'' shouted the fellow who
sported the blue gabardIne and yellow
slippers. "Wouldst thou cheat the
stranger within our gates, when for
eighty sequins he can buy my beast,
the pride of Bassora, instead of mount
ing thy old camel, which is fit for moth
ing but lepers to ride?"
II will count down into thine hand
twenty sequins with the sultana of
Frangistan thereon for thy horse" said
the captain.
"What hath Thy servant done to thee,
o master, that thou should thus reyile
him? Say eighty, and we shall rejoice,"
mo; will give thee twenty"
Fifty sequins, and he is thine"
"No."
"He is of the children of Araby; but
still thou mayest have him for forty"
Twenty, or We shall depart In
peace"
I'm Allah's name, say thirty"
"No.n
"Well, thou shalt have him for twen-
ty; but be kind to Selim, for he is a
good horse, and loves not beating"

Every Other Hand.

Two residents of Springfield had a
difficulty over game of cards the other
day and the result was the arrest of one
for assault and battery. When the
case was called yesterday the complain
ant took the stand to explain how it
happened.
"You see, Judge, he began, 1--WE
were three points up"
What's a point!" blandly inquired
the court.
"Why, we were playing fve-point
euchre. We each had three. A point
counts one, your Honor"
"Ahl'
"He dealt, and it was my lead"
"Deal-lead. Please explam2"
"Why, he shuffied the cards and dealt
the hand, and it was my first play"
well, go on. Perhaps can under
stand.n
81 led the ace of diamonds and he
trumped it with a club. That is, he
refused suit"
"Do you mean he refused to be sued?"
mo, sir. I'd like to explain this
thing to you, because 1t was about the
suit we had the fuss"
81 see-go on. You said you put a
diamond down on the table. Did he
grab itP"
she trumpe6 it with a club"
"Ahl Did You see him carrying this
club around before you sat down to
play?''
Your honor, I'd like to take pack
of cards and explain to you.
mo use-no use. I've heard some
Of the Alderman speak about the right
and left bowers, and I've heard of jacks
and kings and aces, but it would be lost
time to try to show me. You don't
seem to have any case"
"But that's because you do not un-
derstand me- When l charged him
with refusing suit he struck me in the
mouth"
"Did, ehl Well, there isn't any case
to speak of. The prisoner Is dischar-
ged, and you'd better whack up on the
costs"
"And to thinkl'' groaned the coun-
sci for the plaintiff as he reached the
sidewalk, "that only the evening before
this same innocent old J. z. beat ne
out os seven glasses of beer at that very
game Of euchre, and III take my sol
emn afidavy that he stocked the cards
on me at least every other hand.

She Won't Go.

He had been very kind and solicitous
for several days and at breakfast yester.
day morning he suddenly remarked:
ssMy dear, you don't know how bad
it makes me feel to see you look so thin
and care-worn."
"Yes," she softly replied.
'sYou must have lost at least Ave
pounds in the last month"
81 presume so."
"And that haggard expression shows
overwork and need Of rest.'
Yes"
''Dear mel but could never forgive
myself if you should go into decline. "
See here, Henryi' she replied, as she
laid down her fork and looked him
square in the eye, ''you want to drop
thatl If you think you can pack me
of to the country for q month and
leave you to gallop around here you
have got hold of the wrong end Of the
stringl"
He sighed heavily, but made no reply,
and yet as he stood on the corner wait
ing for the car, and Smith asked him
how his wife was, he answered:
"Picking right up, thank you. She's
