reached by descent of several steps. It is said that, exclusive of the artists work, MT. Marquand's bath room cost four thousand dollars.
 Works of art are considered nowhere more appropriate than in the bath room when their subjects are significant. In that of the late MT. Charles J. Osborne at Mamaroneck there is large frame overlooking the bath by Mir. George Maynard. The subject is in evitably "Venus" with loves at a fountain. The figures are life-size in Limoges tiles fired by the Volkmar process. The walls other wise are lined and ceiled with white enamel tiles, with spotless porcelain-lined bath.
 The last Of the new and notable bath rooms is for MT. Robert Garrett's new Baltimore house. This is distinguished not only by the beauty of it's declaration, but by it's process. The ceiling is by Mir. George Maynard and represents an edifce on which morning glo ries twine This design is painted on mar Die oy means of an overlaying composition, and on being fired the medium melts away and the color, sinking in, becomes incorpo- rated with the marble. This endolithic pro- cess, as 1t is called, is new and it's results in the soft radiance of the blended color and marble are said to be very fine. The design IS in radiating sections, which make room for small octagonal panels, which are to be mirrors on which cupids painted.
 1he bath room of Mrs. Seward Webbs house is like cave of white marble. Walls, ceiling and bath are all of marble, and the only variation of tint is in the silver fixtures.
 The bath rooms in the Willard house are conceived in a different way. To each cham Der is attached largo. lofty bath room with mosaic floors, walls lined with white enamel tiles, porcelain lined bath and marble toilet, and instead of works of art the distinguish ing feature is the exposure of all the plumb ing.

Consumption
 Conquered! !
WHEN THE DOCTORS COULD
 DO NO MORE.

CHAS. A. CABRERA, B Hawley Street,
 Boston, Mass, writes:
 "One year ago I was apparently so far gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to help me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, last resort I was induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle I took new lease of life, and can honestly say to-day that one spoonf' l of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than a gallon of any other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of cough or cold I fly to it for the relief it never fails to give"
 DIR. FLOWERS LUNG COR. DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without a rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.

l on in France in the utilization of the various 1 kinds of feathers formerly treated as worth l less, especially those obtained in plucking | ducks, chickens, turkeys and those of wild fowl and other birds killed as game. The plan pursued consists in trimming these, par ticularly the larger ones, off the stump, which may be thrown away, the plumes be- ing then made use of in the manufacture of a feather cloth or blanket which possesses the essential quality of being exceedingly light and at the same time very warm. The plumes which are separated from the stalk are placed in bag, closed tightly and then subjected to rubbing between the hands, as in washing clothes. In few minutes the fbers are by this means separated from each other and form perfectly homogeneous and very light down, applicable by simple opera tion to the production of quite variety of coverings and other household objects at a reasonable cost.
 There were, according to Dr. Dujardin- Beaumetz, 19 deaths from hydrophobia in Paris last year, a number higher than in pre- vious years; and yet the number of stray dogs destroyed was higher, viz, 5,060. Of these 19 persons, b were males and fe- males. The youngest was little girl of 51s years; the oldest, man of 63. The time of incubation varied from 19 months Gin the case of young man of 26) to 90 days Ca child of ID. In only one case was the time of the bite unknown. Excluding that, and the exceptional case of 19 months, an aver age of about months is arrived at for the time of incubation. As to duration of the disease, the extreme limits were 1 day and 8 days, average 31a days. In no case were the lower limbs bitten. In 12 cases out of IS the upper members were bitten, especial ly in the hand @ times out of 12), the wrist twice; in other cases it was the face 0 tines) and the skull (once) that were at tackled. Lastly, in r cases of the IS, the bite was that of dog; in the remaining case it was that of cat. It will be noted that these statistics relate only to deaths from hydrophobia.

The Mortality From Consumption. From Dr. S. A. Fisk in Popular Science
 Monthly.
 Within the past year the civilized world has been shocked aud saddened by the knowledge of the great devastation wrought by the chol- era in Spain; and every precaution, in the way of sanitary measures and quarantine regulations, that modern science could sug- gest, was taken to prevent it's spreading into other countries. The public scanned the columns of the daily press, eager for infor- nation with regard to the advance of this fearful disease, and read with bated breath as they lea ned that it numbered it's victims by the tens of thousands.

The labor agitation is not without it's hu- nor. A committee of Christians was ap- pointed by the New York Central Labor union to ask the Young Mems Christian as-
 sociation of New York city to work some of it's employees less than twelve hours 8 day.
 Mrs. Grant has just received $200, 1000 as 8 part of her share in the profits from the sale of the first volume of her husbands "Mem- oirs," and it is said that the whole work is
 likely, with the foreign royalties, to bring
 her in time not less than $s00,000 This is very cheerful.
 It now appears that the archbishop of
 Quebec appealed to Rome in 1883, and in
 about 8 year received an answer placing the
 Knights of Labor among the societies pro-
 hibited by the holy see. It will be inter-
 esting to watch the progress of the contest
 which has begun in the province of Quebec.
 The action of the Louisiana Board of Par dons in refusing to commute the death sen-
 tence of Patrick Ford and John Murphy, the men who murdered Captain Murphy in the street, was courageous. The board had be- oAAo death sentence signed by 27 900 persons of all grades of society. The petitioners did not see why these two men should be hung, for they were simply the tools of Judge Thomas J. Ford, who escaped with sen
 tence of twenty years in the State prison.
 The Louisville Courier-Journal is very frank about the state of society which exists in Kentucky. It says: There is blood on our hands which cannot be concealed nor rubbed out. By indifference, by neglect, by sympa- thy and tolerance state of affairs has arisen which is shame to our institutions and g disgrace to the age. Practically we have abandoned all attempts to punish crime; it is licensed by the non enforcement of the law. Each man is his own protector and self-de- fense is assumed in instances where the gal
 lows should be 8 certainty.
 A Chinaman who leetured in Brooklyn the
 other night said that Americans have a very mistaken notion concerning the Chinese queue The queue is worn in China merely because it is the fashion, and not, as is gene rally supposed, because it has any religious
 significance. Chinamen got their queues in the first place from the Mancho Tartars. A civil war was in progress in China in l670 and the emperor of the Manchus was invited to ally himself with one of the chiefs. He | did so, and after the common enemy was | overcome he conquered his ally also and be- came the ruler of China He then introduced the queue by force, through an edlct by
 which he sentenced to decapitation all those l who would not wear their hair in this pecu- liar style Since then the queue has become popular and is now the thing to wear ln 1 China.
