How Champagne is Made.

In France the making of champagne
is a process requiring extreme care and
attention at every stage for at least two
years. The grapes are picked with
especial pains to keep any of them
from falling or receiving bruises.
Only the Juice of the first pressing is
made into high-class wine, and the
quantity of this that shall be drawn is
regulated by weight. Four hundred
kilogrammes are allowed for every
forty gallons of wine, and when the
desired quantity has been obtained the
pressing is stopped. .nhe protruding
edges of the mass which have escaped
the heavier pressure are cut off and
subjected to a second pressure, the
Juice from which is called the first
taile. A third pressure gives the
second taille. and a fourth the redeche,
juices that are considered fit only for
the workmen. When the scum has
risen in the wine-tubs it is taken off,
and the casks are filled and fumigated
with sulphur and put away, not quite
full, in the cellar, for fermentation.
The wine is racked off into other casks
when the fermentation has subsidized,
and becomes quite clear by the time
the December frosts set in. 1t is then
mixed, by bringing together thirty or
forty casks of the same growth, and
blended. Tannin is added to neutral
ize grease and deposits, and as much
alcohol as is required. At a later
stage masque or deposit forms on the
side of the bottle, the removal of which
requires much care and skill and mar
nipulation for several weeks. After
ward syrup of sugar and alcohol is
added, in proportions varying accord
ing to the country to which the wine is
to be sent. Finally, the bottles are
corked, wired and set on end.

Ways OF Sleeping.

Men have different ways of Sleep
ing," said the proprietor of a down
town 15-cent lodging-house. "Some
can't sleep unless their heads are turned
in certain direction. Ireserve one of
my beds every Saturday night for a
man who comes in from the country. 1t
heads northwest and southeast, and h
says that is the only way he can sleep.
But most of my customers are poor
men, and so tired that they are glad to
throw themselves down and sleep any
way.
"Some bury themselves in the bed

they would surely smother. Others lie
on their backs, and this is the kind that

Joppa. Once Baltimore,s Rival.

We of California have way of send

ined site of once famous town and
would-be metropolis. Even before
Joppa was founded place called "Old
Baltimore" had been started on Bush
River lin 1888. About twenty years
later q promising site Oh the Gunpow-

was occupied 10y an incorporated town

CIeyeland's Present Residence.

The house that Grover Cleveland
lives and works in covers nearly one
third of an acre of land, and has cost,
all told, $4,000, 900. 1t is modelled after
castle in Dublin, and the architect,
who was a South Carolina man named
Hoban, got $500 for drawing the plans.
When it was first built, away back
in the nineties, it cost $300,000
but the British burned out its inside,
and its cost has since added to that
sum about $l,7OO,000. In it all the
Presidents since Washington have
lived, and each has added to its beau
ties and its expenses.
John Adams bought the first billiard
table that was used in it. But in John
Adams time it was only half furnished,
and Abigail Adams used to dry her
clothes in the big east room. Year by
year, however, furnishing has gone on,
until now it is q sort of museum of art
and beauty. Boston Post.

Here are two letters that were writ
ten by two boys who became great and
good men. 1t is pleasant to look back
to the days when those two great pa
triots were only boys like the rest of us.
The first letter is from Richard Hen

SO bravely for our country in the time
of her great peril and need

following reply:

In less than half century after
writing this child-letter, this same
George Washington stood before vast
assemblage of people, and, with his
hand upon the Bible, took the oath as
the first President of the United States.

AS A rule. Longevity is less freauent

As A rule, longevity is less frequent
than people think. The age of eighty
is reached by only one person in
eighteen, the age of 100 by one in
$500, and the age of ITO by one in
100000. Out of 1000 individuals,
seventy-four die between sixty and
seventy, about fifty-five between seven
ty and eighty, twenty-four between
eighty and ninety, and not more than
one between ninety and 100. The aver
age OF life seldom exceeds thirty years.,
even in the best-regulated families and
most temperate communities.

How To Steal.

tinued the Colonel. "He was an honest
man and an upright citizen; his great
ambition in life apparently was to get
together enough money to complete
the payment on his house, and thus Sc
cure home for his family, in whose
society he found his chief happiness.
When he saw this opportunity of max
ing money his judgment undoubtedly
condemned it. 1t told him that it was
wrong, and that in the event of dis
covery he would be ruined for life. But
the desire for sudden acquisition, for
the rapid accumulation of money, over
came his Judgment. He had not the
moral courage to resist the temptation,
and so fell. 1t was not because his
judgment had proved defective, that
his reason had failed him, but because
this desire for money overpowered them
and became the dominant influence of
his life. l can well understand his
state of mind when in court, as the
sentence was about to be imposed, he
had nothing to say but blanc for him

thieves that when they first began to
steal they were troubled in their minds
to such an extent that they could not
sleep, and would be afraid to meet
most people in the streets. The second
theft did not disturb them so much,
and finally reached state of mind that
they would steal with the same uncon-
Germ as they would eat their meals.

disturbed by thoughts which at first

The American Publishing Co., of Hart

taste in assuming as original for that work
some of the features advertised as new
therein. The Hartford people say that
several of the important features were
original with a biography of Grant pub
lshed by them before the General thought
of writing his book. and that the title, A
Personal History of U. 5. Grant, was
used ON the biography published by them
on their first edition, and has always re-

idcntically appropriated for the Generals
