The Doll-NIOdeler's Secret.
fHarper's Ba1ar.1

One day q celebrated modeler dis.
covered child with a countenancc
more beautiful than any he had ever be-
held. He spoke kindly to it, and loaded
it with sweetmeats and caresses. Then,
in a moment of temptation which he
could not resist, he bore it away to his
studio, where he delineated every fea-
ture az its face, and saw 80 many sug-
gestions for other exquisite models by
means of slight notifications that he
secretly kept it. The dolls modelled
therefrom were sent all over the world,
and increased his wealth and position
far above the manufacturers of his kind.
When he was done with the child he
took its life, fearing the consequences Of
abduction.
Meanwhile the stricken parents had
not been idle. Alarm was sounded
through the country, and failing in
this way to secure the child, detec-
tivts were set at work. One day q Ger
man detective crossed over into Paris,
and went into a toy shop where beauti-
full children were employed as pages.
He did not find the child, but on the
shelves he saw its image stamped with
variations on 1000 dolls. The secret
was found out at last.

book when it is presented to me. don't

better than . scrap-book. Like dairy
most people at various periods of their
lives begin to keep a scrap book. They
60 and examine all the stocks in town
and generally end by buying one that is
too big or too small. For a day or two
they read with a pair Of scissors handy.
They have laid in a pot of gum and a
brush. They clip what they don't want
as rule, to begin with, because after
they have made up their minds to keep
a scrap book, they don't find any of tho
kind Of paragraphs they used to want
to cut out, and they must cut and paste
something. They dive furiously at o
paragraph that has no particular mean.
ing, that is quito foreign to their tastes.
! But they must start in.
For a week or so thoy are moderately
faithful to that scrap-book. Then theJ
begin to cut things and lay them aside
to DO pasted when convenient. They
succeed in filling half a dozen pages.
Then the heap of cuttings grows larger
and larger until it is in the way, and
some day in fit of semi disgust, semi
anger, they throw the bundle into thu
fire. Years after they find odd clipping:
in unused drawers and unfamiliar
corners, and they puzzle and puzzle Al
to what they cut them out for.

Phosphorescence of the Diamond.
[Chicago Herald

It has long been laid down as an
axiom in diamond lore that the precious
stone was capable of absorbing rays
of light and afterward emitting them in
the dark. While this was abundantly
proved by theory it has been difficult to
put it to an actual test, for naturally
the great diamonds of the world are not
accessible for the purpose. Recently,
however, a private person, the fortu-
nate possessor of . stone of ninety-two
karats, valued at 5000, 1000, lent his dia.
mond for scief.tifc investigation. These
have been very satisfactorily conducted,
and the phosphorescent qualities OF the
stone may be regarded as proved. The
stone was exposed for an hour to the di'
rect action of the SUMS rays, and then
removed to q dark room. For more
than twenty minutes it emitted light
strong enough to make sheet OF white
paper hold near it perfectly visible.

Asphyxia from Gas.
ATLANTA Constitution

Most people have too much sense to
blow out the gas. But it is a fact, that
every year many deaths are reported
not only from this habit, but
but from sleeping in rooms where
the gas fixtures are defective. In
every case, the victims die a terrible
death. A person is deprived of the
power of action while still retaining
perfect consciousness Not even an out
cry is possible. Death approaches grad
ually, leaving the brain free TO picture
the past and present in vivid colors
flashing like lightning over the memory.
Until the very last heart beat the victim
of asphyxia from gas knows that death
has him in its grip. The stages ale con-
fusion of ideas, delirium, muscular
spasms, commissions, paralysis, uncon-
seriousness and failure Of the hearts
action.
