The Original of the Coney Island Ele.
phantlne Dining Parlor.
The huge structure of wood and
iron which an American speculator has
constructed in the shape of an ele-
plant on Coney Island is said to be at
tracing vast numbers of sight-seers;
and the capacious dining-rooms are
daily filled with crowds for whom the
novelty of dining in the interior of a
colossus adds, perhaps, a relish to the
meal. The monstrous structure stands
as high as the Vendome Column, and
Jumbo himself could have passed as
easily between its legs as an ordinary
spaniel could have walked between
Jumbo's. The idea is less original
than most of those we owe to Ameri-
can ingenuity. The great Napoleon
erected similar structure in Paris, an
account of which is to be found in the
sixth chapter of lies Miserables.

A Pretty Table Scarf.

A useful table scarf, and one that is
particularly pleasing to the eye, because
it does not suggest almost endless labor,
is made by taking strip of Atwood
Java canvas of the proper length for the
table on which it is to be used. Line it
with some stiff cloth and then with
silesa. At about three inches from the
outer edge sew on two strips of black
velvet ribbon two inches wide. Through
the center work handsome scroll pat
tern, using bright yellow silk; the velvet
stripes may be put on perfectly plain, OF
may be worked in old-fashioned cross
stitch, or in some modification of feather
stitch. Finish the bottom of the scarf
with yellow silk balls This is suitable
for the common sitting room; it is so
bright that the dust can be shaken from
it with ease.-Nat,onat Presbyterian.

What she has learned since she went away!
Wonders more great Heaven can show
Than have met the light of an earthly day;
The new, new song, the Glorious Name
The harp, the crown, and the sea-like name!
wonder IT, when the burst of song
From Heavenly cboirs first met her ear, :,
And she saw the countless, white-robed
thrOng,
She thought of the love Of her mother

Orif, in her fearless innocence,
She met the gaze OF Omnipotence.
She went in the springti time away from me;
And oft, us the skies bring the fair spring

A Roman Race Course in France.

Archaeological research has recently
revealed in the neighborhood of Nantes
the existence of race course of pre-.
sumably Roman origin. The founds.
tons of the hippodrome occupy an area
of about 22S by ia meters. Further
discovery has been made in the vicinity
of an ancient roadway leading to the
Loire, near the banks of which river
traces of number of villas prove the
existence of buried city, inasmuch as
a theater capable of accommodating
1900 persons has been brought to the
light of day. A quantity of ornaments,
jewels and pottery has been recovered
among the ruins. Thus far the absence
Of coins has frustrated the endeavors of
savants engaged in unearthing the
relics to establish the epoch of this most
recently found city of the Roman occu-
pation.-N T. Post

Men Who Have Sat Cross-Legged and
Risen TO Distinction.


Tailors have been the butt of small
wits and large wits for generations. II
has come to be well-recognized fact on
the stage that tailors have very red
noses and very lean bodies. But the
stage does NOT, in this respect, hold the
mirror up TO nature, for many tailors
have fat bodies and fat purses.
The village tailor who sits on his
board and is popularity supposed to tie
his legs up into a hard knot when
working may be scorned by the rich
but the tailor who has the large store in
the thoroughfare of a big city is a mer.
chant, and if he is wealthy is cordially
welcomed by other wealthy men.
There was tailor Admiral in the En-.
glish navy and tailor Marshal in the
German army. The latter had wit a,
pointed as his needle. A snobbish no
bic once asked:
