How to Transform a Nose.


Given a clean-shaven face, the feat
ures of which are not specially promi-
nent, and it is comparatively easy for
an artist in makeup to transform 1t
into a fair likeness of any type of char.
acter he wishes to represent, or even to
initiate a particular individual. The
face in his hands becomes almost as
plastic as the clay under the touch of
the sculptor. OF course the actor can
not remold his features, but by putting
on different colored paints he can pre-
sent an effect which, viewed from lit
tie distance, has all the appearance of
having been remolded. The great
secret underlying all the triumphs of
this art is that white brings into prom
inence and black ,lepresses. For in
stance, take nose that is reasonably
straight. Suppose it is desired to make
a pug. Put little dark brown on the
bridge and make the end lighter than
all the rest of the face. The gradations
have to be nicely shaded, and there
comes in the art. To reverse the pro-
cess, and produce a marked aquiline,
hook or Jewish nose, put white on the
bridge and darken down the tip a lit
tie. This will bring forth an aristo-
cratic nose that would do credit TO any
duke in the British peerage. -NeaO York

"I,ittle Alec's" Dogs.

A remarkable element of Mr.. Steph-
ems life, and one which will give great
insight into his character, was his love
for his friends. both man and beast,
writes correspondent. His dogs en-
ter as largely into his friendly letters
as do state questions, and his private
secretary tells me that when he was at
home. at Liberty hall, he spent one
hour each day going about among his
stock, petting the horses, COWS, and
sheep, and lingering long over the
colts, lambs, and little pigs. His dogs
accompanied him during these expedi-
tions, receiving as much attention from
him during their gambols as though
they were human. Like Walter Scott,
he looked upon them as sympathetic
friends rather than as mere dumb
brutes. Whether riding, walking, or
studying, they were beside him, and at
night they had place at the foot of
his bed, or an especial couch of coffee
sacks was made up for them in the
library adjoining his chamber He de-
lighted in teaching them tricks, in
watching their queer natures, and re-
spected their feelings as much as any
father ever did those of his child. Rios
wild bowling affects him TO tears, he
rejoices in the wild glee of Sir Bingo
Binks, and when Troupe dies he feels
as if he had lost one of his dearest
friends.

II Wasn't the Cat.

A fish dealer down in Salineville,
Ohio, says that he received box of
frozen fish from Cleveland during the
recent blizzard. They were so hard
and brittle that they had to be handled
with care to keep them from breaking
in pieces. He sold one to an old lady,
who took it home and put it in a bucket
of cold water to thaw out gradually.
During the night she heard something
splashing and Hopping around in the
kitchen. Supposing it was the cat try
ing to get the fish, she jumped out of
bed, seized the broom, and broke for
the scene. There was no cat visible,
but the fish was making the water fly
in every direction. AS near as could
be learned, these fish had lain out in
the cold two nights before being pack
ed in boxes, and had been out of the
water more than two weeks.

4 son Word.


The art of saying an unpleasant
thing in 3 perfectly agreeable manner,
is very high accomplishment, which
should be studied by all persons liable
to be asked for loans. Some years ago
there was banking-house in Edin-
burgh which gave general offense by
therude way that customers were some-
times addressed a tradesman leaving
a bill for discount, would on bis return
have the bill thrown across the table,
with the supercilious and loud remark:
1--WE don know the parties. Trades
man retires affronted, and ever after
wards speaks of the unmannerliness OF
the bank. There was at the same time
another banking establishment in the
town, the eldest in the country. which
was noted for It's ciyility. It was pre-
sided ovef By MIR. , an naged gentle
man, who knew the value Of soft
word When sradesman, as in the
former case, was to be refused the dis
counting ll bill. the old banker came
forth from his den, and addressing the
would-be customer in friendly and
confidential way said: ~ am sorry Il
Is not convenient 10 discount your bill
to-day; bit lie SO gool as to give nv
compliments TO your wifef Dr.. Il
Chambers.

Snnbblng.

This is serions business in any view
that can be taken of it. And it is GER
tainly most disagreeable one. Those
who are snubbed are generally taken
off their guard, and this constitutes
their main annoyance. They are given
a sudden blow when they are careless
and at case in the security of social in
lercourse. and thus they are placed at
Il great disadvantage.
A snub, says one, is check, blank;
il Is 4 curtain suddenly drawn down; it
Is pulling up against dead wall; it is
cold obstruction and recoil. Either the
snubber has authority on his side, and
we have laid ourselves open by some
inadvertence, by misplaced trust in
his condescension, and we have seen
currents painfully snub their children
in this sort, first allow them liberties,
then stop them with harsh check in
mid-career Of spirits and in the pres
ence OF strangers, or perhaps we have
given way to enthusiasm and are met
bv ridicuie. Or we have made con-
lidenee which we think tender, and it
Is received with indifference. Or we
tell a story, and are asked for the
point of it. Or we are given to under
stand that we are mistaken where we
have assumed ourselves well informed.
Or cur taste is cooliy set at naught; or
we talk. and are reminded we are
prosy; or we are brought face to face
with our Ignorance in way to make
as feel it most keenly. The strength

Chinese Cheap labor.

On leaving London for China, writes
q correspondent of the Pail Mai Ga-
sette st Pekin. | was surprised to fad
that all the firemen on board the ship
were Chinese. The vessel was one Of
large line of steamers (Glen iinel
trading at China, and | learned that
this particular steamer was one of the
last to adopt Chinese firemen, the chief
engineer being unwilling to employ
Asiatics while there were Englishmen
wanting bread. He found, however,
that be could not help himself. Eng
lish fremen-British firemen rather.
were so troublesome and so given to be-
ing drunk when they got a chance, that
with all his preference for his own
countrymen, the ''chief' was obliged
to give in at last and take Cinnamon.
Before giving in [ think that on one
occasion he had to have the ship anch-
ored till the fremen got sober, and on
another occasion to go down the chan
mel with tho engineers acting as stok-
ers. Then, much against his will, he
had to take to the Objectionable China
men. On asking how the Chinese did.
trouble, were always there when
wanted. were steady and sober, and in
every way competent 1t did not ap-
pear that very much was saved in
wages by employing Cinnamon, but
the gain was in the absolute regularity
with which they performed their work.
It is in this way the Chinese are going
to conquer-by sober, plodding indus
try. There will be no armed parade,
no great military movements, no
chanting of warriors with garments
rolled in blood; but where labor 10
wanted they will supply it. and be
steady at their work. Some time ago
there was talk of company import
ing some thousands of Chinese to Lon
don. They will come without CON-
pany and without ostentation, they
will come only whore and when they
are wanted; but the alarming consider
alton in the contest of races is that
they can render themselves profitable,
and even necessary, to those who are
reluctant to use them. If Britain can
be made sober she may hold her own,
for the Chinaman labors under many
disadvantages; but if the steady, quiet,
law-abiding Chinaman has as his COM
petitor man liable at any time to be
of work for q day or two through
drink ii ia not difficult to see who will
win. Against industrious perseverance
no protective law can save country
whose working population is given to
the Interruptions of drinking and
''sprees." At present Britain has got
the start, and for years, perhaps de-
cades, China may be unable to cope
with us in manufactures, but no length
Of start can keep US permanently ahead
Of unwearying perseverance. China is
learning, slowly, it is true. but still
learning western arts, and when once
she has learned thoroughly her lesson,
her industrious sober population, if
prohibited from working in Britain aud
the colonies, will produce in her pos
sessions manufactures which will be
lower in price than ours. For some
time our name and prestige will save
US, but this can not last for ever, and
am deeply conscious that in the long
run no nation which cripples its ener-
gies aud wastes its income on drink, as
Britain now does, will be able to COM
pete successfully with China.
