The magnitude of the slate industry
in this country can be imagined when
it is stated that the total amount pro-
duced of roofing slate alone is 100000
squares per year. A square" is about
100 square feet, or sufficient to cover a
space 10x10 feet when laid on the roof.
It covers the same area as 1000 shin
gles.

not miraculous.

Poison in Kissing.

women in their greetings.

death has laid its relentless hands on
one Of its members, the common prac-
ice of kissing is liable to induce septi-

Keeping Up with the Fashion.

once knew woman whose efforts
to be in style were very amusing. Every
time she saw another woman with some
thing unusual about her dress or per-
son, she almost plagued the life out of
her husband for 80 9, hing like it. Her
spouse VAS sort of undeveloped prac-
tical joker, and, firing of her foolish
whims, he set about inventing plans for
disgusting her with the extremes of
fashion, as people we're accustomed to
being disgu ted with her effort, to keep
up with the ways of Il per tendon.
One day woman, nho had evidently
examined into the mysterious workings
of mule, came to III, Office on s5me
sort of business connecte Nth getting
the estate Of her lately deceased hus-
band in shape for q second marriage.
and he noticed her black eve, and told
her he would not charge her ANYTHING
for his services if she would go down
to his house and primp and spread it
on very thick, and tell his wife that
that was the latest agony, and that the
way to get herself up in that shape was
to rub some burnt cork on under her
eye, and, when people spoke to her
about it, tell them it was beauty-spot
Ia Sullivan. She and her husband
were going to a musicale, or soiree, or
something. that evening, and. when he
came home from Lis business. sure
enough his vile had black eve.
"My gracious, Martha" said he. who
struck you?"
"Oh, you simpleton," she replied,
~nnhn1u OF lot g.

Sullivan, and l don't propose to be be-
hind the rest so there now"
Well, Martha. I would not do that.
You surely are not going to the soiree
with black eye"
"Black nothing" she snorted. Il
have no black eye. That, / would have
you know, is beautyspot la Sulli-
van, and I'm going to wear it tonight"
"But, Martha"
"Oh, you needn't go to butting about
It. am going to wear it, and I'd like
10 see you help yourself"
"Why, Martha, people will"
"Oh, bother the people! Who cares
fig for the ulgar herd that never
leads, hut always follows? propose
TO lead in fashion, do, and that set
ties it.
Her husband strove to dissuade her
from her purpose in vain, and she went
tp the musical riot with black eye in
pite of all his protestations. She had
not been in the hall long, whea one of
her acquaintances, the wife of q Dews-
paper man, asked:
"Why, Mrs. Leader, what ails your
sge?"
s0h! that is the very latest. It is
called beauty-spot Ia Sullivan"
Yes, I suppose so; but where did
you acquire it?"
SOh! Mr.. Leader gave it to me, of
course. He is such dear, good fell
lov, you know, that he gives me every
thing I want"
DO you mean to say you got that
spot from his hand?"

Few persons are aware of the i'm
mense field which the study of insects
opens to the student, or what a host
the cultivator has to encounter among
the large portion which do him harm,
instead of the other portion which are
positive benefit. There are over 200,-
900 known species, and the whole num-
Der is estimated at 100000 or 100000.
There are 900 species of the butterfly in
North America, and $500 North Ameri-
can flies. There are, altogether, at
least 2O,OO0 species of Hymen-optera,
including wasps and bees; and 10000
Coieoptera, or SHELVING beetles. Prof.
Lintner enumerates 176 different insects
which attack the apple, although only
a small number are formidable. A
minute insect has destroyed about a
million acres of vineyard in France;
and we are familiar with the many mil
