DyeIng Silk.
Harper's Magazine.

Dyelng lss always a hand process,
as the color of dyer's hand suggests,
and here machinery does not attempt
to interfere. Long troughs fill the
sloppy and steamy room in which
the great skeins of silk and yarn are
dipped from cross sticks, by parti COLI
ored human beings, who move them
occasionally to and fro to make sure
all parts have a fair chance. The
muddy hues suggest little of the bril-
liancy OF color that is to be the glory
of the completed fabric, and we will
not enter into any trade secrets of
their composition. But their is good
dyeing and bad dyeing, honest dye>
ing and false dyeing, and silk max
er who has intent to deceive can make
his yarn take 800 per cent. of extra
weight by the use of metallic substan-
ces IL the dyepot. This accounts for
some Of the cheapness as well as the
bad wear of certain foreign fabrics
which look as well at first sight as
goods of a much higher price. Some
of the foreign black silks are so high
ly loaded" with nitrate of iron as to
give color to the belief in spontan-
eous combustion in silk, which caus>
ed the Northern German Steamship
company in 1879 to refuse the weight
ier foreign silks. The carbon of the
silk and the nitrate make compound
closely parallel with gun cotton,
which is simply cotton fiber soaked
with nitric acid. American manu-
facturers challenge consumers to test
the purity OF their fabrics, which may
be done by raveling the silk into
threads. Ifheavily loaded they viii
break easily, feel rough to the touch,
because of the particles of dye, taste
inky to the tongue, ard burn smold~
erlngly into a yellow, greasy ash,
instead of crisply into almost noth>
ing. These are tests lady buyers of
silk dress should not forget. The
range of tint in colored silks is re-
markable, and the variety of shade
equired from year to year by fashion
makes curious pictorial history OF
the times. One dealer at Cincinnati
showed rainbow in silk threads.

Young Married People.
From the Culver

Drive gently over the stonesr'
This piece of advice, which is fre
quently given to inexperienced whips,
may be respectfully suggested to the
newly married. There, are stony
places on the road to happiness, which,
if not carefully driven over, may up
set the domestic coach. The first
rock ahead which should be marked
dangerous" is the first year of mar
ried life. Here, especially, it is the
first step that costs; as rule, the first
year either mars or makes q marriage.
During this period errors may be COM
mittea which will cast shadow over
every year that follows.
On awakening suddenly from sleep
we feel put out and rather cross. May
not the young husband and wife ex-
perience feelings not entirely different
when they awake to reality from the
dreams of courtship and the fascina-
of the honeymoon? Everything must
once more be contemplated after the
ordinary manner of the world, once
more with suhdued feelings spoken of,
considered and settled. For the first
time husband and wife sec each other
as they actually are. Each brings
certain peculiarities into the married
state to which the other has to grow
accustomed. They have now to live
no longer for themselves, but for each
other. and the lesson is not learned ia
a moment. In all things Indifferent
the husband and wife must be willing
to yield, however new it may be to
them, however different from what
they themselves thought. Self n Ust
be sacrificed in order thereby to gain
the help of another beloved existence.
A lady once3 asked DR.. johnson how
IN his dictionary e came to define
''pastern, the knee of a horse. He
Immediately answered: Ignorance,
madam, pure ignorance. This Is the
simple explanation of many an acci-
dent that takes place at the commence
ment, to tie matrimonial journey.
The young couple have not yet learn
ed the dangerous places of the road,
and as consequence, they drive
carelessly over them.

MISS CLEyELANUs BOOK OUT.
The Fourth Edition Already Ordered
and the Sale Likely to Reach 10O,-
600 Copies.

ana the SAFE AAAely go kGeach AOUs-
900 Copies.
Miss Cleveland's book, " George
Eliot's Essays and Other Studies, " was
out yesterday, and before noon tho
three editions were entirely exhausted
or would have been had the agree
ments been kept with buyers. The
plan of filing part of each order was
adopted, and in that way the busy
clerks delivered a great many books,
and the supply held out for city orders
until the hour for closing.
Shortly after noon cable dispatch
was received from England saying
that the book was copyrighted there,
and instructions were Immediately
given to begin the delivery of copies
to the press. Soon $50 copies were
sent out, several clerks being engaged
in this work all the afternoon
Early yesterday morning impatient
dealers who had placed advance orders
we're anxiously asking for their books,
but got none until the receipt of the
cablegram. In short time 1t became
evident that the binders could not
supply the demand, and the plan of
filing the orders in part only was
adopted. Dealers who wanted 100
copies obtained 25; those who called
for $50 copies got only 100. At noon
the publishers decided that the edi-
tions on hand would last only a day
or two at the rate they were going to
the trade, and word was sent to begin
printing the fourth edition at once.
The presses were started In the after
noon, and by Saturday this edition
will be ready IN part. The demand
for the book is unprecedented. Orders
from all parts of the country have
been pouring IN since The Suns an
nouncement on Friday last of publi>
cation. So great has been the demand
that all other business of the house
has been delayed by this book, and
the clerks are anticipating night work
for the present.
Miss Cleveland has not as yet re-
ceived a copy of her book, and it is
likely that very many readers will
have their copies before the White
House enjoys the sight of it. The
orders for this book, it is confidently
believed will reach 100, 900 copies.

A FOluble Waiter.
Butte City Inter-Mountain.

One morning receatly hungry pill
grim went into Pat Conlon's restau-
rant and ordered some toast, poached
eggs, a rare steak, and some hot cakes.
The waiter, prof" Paris, went to
the kitchen and roared out to the
Chinaman: Gimme a graveyard
stew, potatoes in the dark, two men
a horseback, a moonlight in the lake
and fambeau." When the pilgrim
heard this remarkable order he in
contently fed from the house, forget
ting to take ais hat and muttering
that he'd "be gol darned if he propos-
ed to tackle that kind of breakfast,
ana that if the people lived Oh such
things in this country he proposed to
return to Missouri.
A reporter for The Inter Mountain,
who happened to De in the restaurant
at the time, approached the waiter
and asked for an explanation Of the
order, and the prof" gave the fol-
10 wing version:
You see," he said, 1--WE get tired of
commonplaces, and besides, we try to
teach the Cinnamon the language. A
graveyard stew means milk toast
potatoes in the dark is boiled potatoes
eggs circus style means scrambled
egg; rough and ready means pork and
beans; fambeau is light. hot cakes,
and moonlight on the lake is rare
beefsteak. The walters all have pet
names for those things and we throw
potatoes at the Chinese cooks till they
know what we mean"
Another boarder came IN ans the
professor roared out with the voice OF
Stentor: Gimme a saddle bags and
a springer, spuds on the side, ten
penny nails and a shingle to come
a-runnin'." Then the reporter follow
en- Ia the wake of the Missourian

A Beautiful Apartment.

[ was at breakfast lately in a charm
ing apartment in the Barberini palace.
asperfect bonbennIere apartment of
the eighteenth century, writes COR
respondent from Rome to The Sun
Francisco Chronicle. 1t was fitted up
for gay canoness of the Barberini
family In the last century. The dec
oraticns and furniture are truly a Ia
marquise, just as everything In me-
diaval days was grand seigneur.
Everywhere is the veritable cachet OF
Rocco or Pompadour, that style of
decoration which is without fixed
forms, without logical carpentry, with
out proportions, without unity, and
yet fascinating and charming. Like
ali the Pompadour apartments, rooms
that are usually shut off FROM view
and are private are open to the visitor,
man or woman. The bedroom is q
sort of temple, with costly African
marble columns on either side of the
bed alcove; from huge inverted
green and gold shell above fall
the green and gold curtains. Draw
aside these curtains and such a de-
licious nestl Aronnd the bed is a wall
covered with the most varied raised
ornaments, in soft colors, on a gray
green ground. Nymphs, birds, but
terflies, garlands, trellis- work, graf
i1gs. curved lines ending in leafy
branches, large shells, with green and
gold water flowing from them; three
very Pompadour figures of Faith,
Hope and Charity dancing gaily over
the head of the bed. The dining
room, boudoir, ana most delicious
little place, very uniterary looking,
called the library, each has its oratory-
looking alcove, all decorated in the
same style, ceiling, walls. and furni-
ture. Every straight line and angle
is lost under a maze of the same grace
full little wreaths, and birds, cupids,
and shells. The gay, irresponsible
day of the canoness was brus
tally swept off into nothing
ness by the FreHch revolution.
This apartment in a high-up corner
OF the vast Barberini palace, is d
pretty little memory of that frolic-
some, reckless period when seed was
gayly sown for an unexpected harvest
Of fearful retrlbutlon. For many
years the rooms Of the canoness have
gone to rack and ruin. The grand
salon is seventeenth~century. Louis
XIV, had the walls covered with Oil
pictures la Fontalnbleau, giving all
the feats sanity and martial, of the
Barberini family. At one time this
fine room was sort of nursery for
the boys of a family who lived there;
the little wretches used to amuse
themselves by shooting arrows and
popguns at the pictured pope and his
nephews. Lately an American of
ample means has rented the place,
and the coquette's rooms are restored
to something like their original lux<
ury.
