An Old Custom About to He Revived
philadelphia Tlmes.l
The fashion Of wearing beauty spots and
patches Is coming into vogue again quite
largely this season, y said a fashionable
ladies' hair-dresser. AT the ball OF the as
sombly a number OF ladies wore little stars
and half moons on their faces, and at the
charity ball one lady wore a tiny
coach-and-four In c~ourt-plaster ON her
forehead. These patches may te
purchased Of almost any hair-dresser in
the city. See. here is a box OF one dozen
different patterns" He opened a small paste
board box and displayed twelve little pieces
Of court-plastsr, cleverly cut into various de-
signs. A coach-end-four, a man on a bicy-
Gle, a ship in full sail, Punch and Judy and
others were among the number. This fash
ion was reintroduced at the great ball Of the
French consulate in London last November
by the Countesse des Bera ngeres, one OF the
ladies in waiting on the exiled Empress Eu-
genie. It was considered so becoming that
it instantly became the rage, and was
quickly sent over here. The final touch was
put to the movement by the late hair-dress-

A Small Boys Ingenuity.

The invention of the valve motion
to steam engine was made by a mere
boy. Newcomers engine was in q
very incomplete condition, from the
fact that there was no way to open or
close the valves except by means Of
levers operated by hand. He set up a
large engine at one end of the mines.
and a boy Humphrey POTTERY was
hired to work these valve levers. AL
though this is not hard work, vet it
required his constant attention. As
he was working the levers he saw that
parts of the engine moved in the right
direction, and at the same time he had
to open and close the valves.
He procured a strong cord and
made one end fast to the proper part
of the engine and the other end to the
valvc-lever, and the boy had the sat
isfaction of seeing the engine move
with perfect regularity Of motion. A
short time after the foreman came
around and saw tho boy playing mar.
bles at the door. Looking ut the en-.
CINE, he saw the ingenuity of tho boy,
and also the advantage of his invcn.
ton. The idea suggested by the boys
inventive genius was put into practic.
al form, and made the steam engine

The Uninviting Vatican.

Rome Letter IN CINCINNATI Enquirer.
The most disappointing thing, per-
haps to visitors is the Vatican Palace.
Without design, ormentation or finish,
it would, il detached from St. Peters,
be teken for a factory building, OF three
stories in height in parts and four in
Others, with neither a tallchimneyno nor
shutter to u window to relieve the fiat;
yellow uncovered walls. Theexten-
sions made to it from time to time
changed thertinningcoursc OF the struc-
ture, so that it is zig-zagin line and has
every appearance of a collection of bad
ly constructed, rambling buildings,
that would be decidedly improved by a
coat of paint. The gardens adjoining
are very beautiful, a portion being laid
out in a park and the remainder in nat
tiral forest. 1t is here, when in health,
that the pope drives every day. Prior
to the hour appointed for this recrea-
ton, sight-seers are made to come
down from the overlooking dome of
st. Peters. The buildings and gar
dens are inclosed with a high wall,
within which, only are allowed the pope
and his attendants and the servants,
whos cottages clustered together re-
sembIe u small village. The latter
comprise in their number artisans,
mechanics, laborers and farmers, with
workshops and acres of ground, on
which are raised the needed vegetable
supply, making the vatican entirely
independent of outside sources for it's
food. It is city within q city.

The Invention of naner

How, when, or by whom paper was

According to Hallam. documents on

century. and it came into general use
not long after this era. and Completely
supplanted all other materials which
were formerly employed for the pur-
poses for which it is now used 1t

wise perfectly adapted to this use.
The use of paper in western Europe
dates from tho time mentioned, but it
was known to the Chinese long before
the Christian era, and it is believed
that they used the bark of various
trees, the soft parts of the bamboo
stems, cotton and several other kinds
of vegetable tibers. From the Chinese
IT is supposed to have spread to India.
thence to Arabia, and the manufacture
was introduced into Europe by the
Moors OF Spain, but about this there
is no certainty. The rice paper of
the Chinese is made in the same gene
raj way as the papyrus of the ancient
Egyptians. by placing in proper order
layers of fibers and cementing them
with sizing or glue. The first patent
for paper making was taken out in
England in 1865, but it was ..for max.

Disposal of the Dead.

"a statement made by the counsel
for the Greenwood cemetery asspcia-
ton at the recent investigation into
the management of the cemetery's af-
fairs is one to make people think more
of cremation than over BEFORE" said a
gentleman who was present at the in
vestigation to q Mail and Erpres$ re-
porter. This was, that it was most
injudicious to allow relatives or friends
to be present when remains which had
long been in grave were taken out to
be transferred to some other place, be.
cause the coffin was likely to nave be-
come decayed and the remains had to
be taken up with o shovel. Just think
of that! Iactually believe I'd rather
have the urn idea adopted in place of
the present burial system, odd as it
seems"
An officer of a cremation company,
when asked by a reporter for particu-
lars regarding the mode Of disposing
OF the dead suggested bythp above
remark, said that frohsall observations
cremation is destined ut no sAistant
day to superscde the practice OF grave
burials because it had none Of tAeir
offensive features. Gas now cona}rSt-

not for a moment to be confounded
with the offensive custom of burning
on the open pyrc, as practiced by the
ancients. 1t is effected in super.
heated air chamber, which allows no
contact of flame or fuel with the body,
while all the gases and volatile pro.
ducts of combustion are completely re-
generated and rendered innocuous and
odorlcss before being liberated. Why,
an approved modern crematory might
be erected in Madison square, and but
for transporting the dead bodies
thither, could not be an offense to any
one. The process is accompanied with
no repulsive sight. sound. smell, noise
or smoke"
"What is this process?" was asked.
1.-The body, covered with pail, is
placed on a catafalque in the chapel
or reception hall. whence it descends
noiselessly by means of an elevator to
the incincrating chamber. This. by
means of superheated air, has been
raised to white heat at tempera-
ture of about 1000 degrees fahrenheit.
