Markets of n siberian CITY

The markets Of Irkutsk are an inter
esting sight in winter time, for every.
thing on sale is frozen solid. Fish are
piled up in stacks like SO much cord
wood. and meat likewise. All kinds Of
fowl are similarly frozen and piled up.
Some animals brought into the market
whole are prupped up on their hind legs,
and have the appearance of being act.
ually alive; and as you go through the
markets you seem to be surrounded
by living pigs, sheep, oxen. and fowls.
But stranger yet, even the liquids are
frozen solid and sold in blocks. Milk is
frozen into block in this way, with a
string or stick frozen into or projecting
from il, for the convenience Of the pur-
chaser, who can take his milk by the
stick and carry it home swung across
the shoulder. So, in sense which is
unknown in other countries, a man can
buy his drink with "a stick in it.'-Cen.

Famou. Composers at q Musicale.

Madame Marchesi gave, a few even
ings ago, a soiree musicale, which was
one of the.most crowded and brilliant of
the season. 1iszt, and Rubenstein, and
Saint-Saens, the composer Of Henry
VIII" were among the guests. l must
confess that could not discern in the
Able Liszt that fat and very big old man
in straight. tight-fitting cassock, with
large feet and face embellished with
two enormous warts, any trace of the
lady-killer of the last quarter of a CEN
tury. His long. thick white hair, reach
ing TO his shoulders and carefully brushed
and arranged, was really the only at
.ractive point about his appearance. Yet
this man has inspired ladies of high de-
gree with such devoted yet humble at
tachment that they refused to sit down
in his presence. He looked like very
large old French peasant cure astray in a
fashionable drawing room.
Rubenstein, with his short, fiat nose
and tempest of wild hair" keeps his
aspect as of a savage Beethoven. by
which he brcame familiar. several years
ago. to the music-lovers of the United
States. Saint-Saens is a modest looking
gentleman. with dark eyes and hair. and
fine intellectual brow. He interested me
most of the three: first, because greatly
admire his works; and, secondly, he did
not pose as celebrity, as did the two
other famous guests of the evening"

TIE HARMONY OF coLo7S.
Selections In Fitting Up Apartments,
Dressing, Etc.-Hints To M.rrI ints.

Dressing, Etc.-Hints 70 h"rr ttnts'
BY harmony Of colors W. understand
coiors placed side by side m suih "A man'
ncr tina; they do not mjure the effect OF
each other; rather, on the contrary,
complete each other, !, e., they gain in
intensity.
Those who are familiar with the har.
mony of colors can, by using objects OF
familiar use, make such selections in fit
ting up apartments, in dressing, etc., 50
that with the greatest simplicity they are
able to produce a more favorable effect
than is possible with the most extrava-
giant expenditure without a sense of har-
mony in color.
A merchant, dealing in colored goods,
can very greatly improve the appearance
of his stock by knowing how TO group
them in such way as to produce har-
monious effect. Very often, owing to
a lack of taste with reference to colors
among dealers, it will be found that the
silks in one shop will appear muc h
fresher and brighter than in another.
This difference in effect to colors is, how
ever, nothing more or less than one mer-
chant arranges his goods so that the col
ors are in harmony, while the other does
not follow any definite plan. In the
first instance the goods gain, while in the
second they lose in intensity of color.
The attention of the ladies is particu-
larly called to the importance of har-
mony in colors, for the most of them in
the selection of their colored dresses,
bonnets. and trimmings, produce the
greatest dscord in the composition Of the
colors. Harmony in color does not de-
pend on the will or caprice or personal
taste of an individual, but it is based on
the Interchangeable laws of nature, which
we shall Immediately discuss.
Red and Green-A red body reflects
green rays, while on the other hand, a
green body reflects red rays Therefore
green is the color which completes red.
and similarly red is the color which com
pletes green. Both colors, therefore,
gain in intensity.
Blue and Orange-A blue body often
reflects orange rays, ana inversely
an orange body will frequently re-
feet the blue rays. Orangeis is, therefore,
the complementary color of blue, and
vice versa, therefore each color intensi-
fies the other.
Violet and Greenish Yellow-A violet
body reflects greenish yellow, and in
versely greenish yellow body reflects
violet. Both colors, therefore, complete
each other, and intensity each other.
Indigo and Yellow Indigo reflects
yellow, and yellow indigo rays, hence
they are complementary and intensity
each other.
1t would carry us too far to describe
all the other colors which are compile

OIL to Quiet an Angry Sea.

The windows of some of the South
street ship chambers stores contain this
sign: Marine OIL"
1T is an oil specially prepared to
smooth an angry sea- said one dealer.
Boiled oil or animal oil will do pretty
well, but this oil will stand greater de-
gree of cold without congealing than or
dinary oils. 1t is secret mixture of
common oils. The demand for it has
arisin through the publication by the
photographic office of the value of oil
in breaking sea. 1t has become the
fashion to use oil. 1t is singular char
acteristic, but many old sea captains
boast that they are not book sailors, and
take pride in refusing to do what the
hooks recommend and in refusing to
take up with what they call new-fangled
notions. They have heard about the
ralue Of oil ever since whales were first
captured off Nantucket, but it was not

The Mountain Peaks of Alaska.

Alaska has the highest mountain peaks
Of the United States. II has volcanoes
and glaciers. and many of these volca.
noes are in active order. The glaciers OF
Alaska are finer than those of the Alps.
There is one that extends fifty miles to
the sea, and there ends abruptly in a
perpendicular ice wall 800 feet high and
eight miles broad. Thirty-five miles
above Wrangeil, on the Stikine river, be.
tween two mountains 5000 feet high,
there is glacier forty miles long and
four or five miles across at the base. 1t
is from 800 to 1000 feet high, and there
are other glaciers throughout the terri
tory from which great blocks containing
hundreds Of tons of ice are constantly
breaking off and falling into the sea-

ATTITUDES AND HEART DISEASE.
The Risk which Some People Run-Dsn-

The Risk Which Some People Run-Dsn-
gers of the Higher Levels.
The Medical Journal has just reported
q paper read before the American Climat-
illogical association, by DIR. n. l..
Loomis. of this city, which may be Of
vital importance to many people propos-
ing to visit mountain resorts the coming
summer. DIR. Loomis datails four cases
IN which heart disease was brought on
by change from lower to a higher
altitude. Two of these cases were per-
sons going to st. Regis lake, in the Adj
rondacks. at an elevation of only 1000
feet. One was that Of visitor to the
Catskill mountains, and the fourth had
gone to Colorado. Though a relief was
afforded them by return to lowerlev-
els, they all died within four or five
weeks.
As the result of his experience in
twenty-six cases, DIR. Loomis concludes
that "the risks which one with even
slight cardiac insufficienc runs by pass
ing from lower to a higher altitude is
certainly very great; and, if the INSULT
flelCN ne tAttilSlNt, SuCn tAidhSt pt-
comes Immediately dangerous" This
conclusion. strongly supported as it is by
DIR. Loomis' data, is especially important
when il is remer lbered that cardaic in
sufficiency may oxist in those who give
no evidence of it while at, or moder-
ately near. the -ea level.
1t is well known that sojourn at the
high resorts of the Swiss Alps is contra
Indicated for persons suffering from dis
eases OF the brain, heart, or the
large vessels. The change in the blood

The Formation of North America.

The opinion is expressed by an emf
nent American scientist, in recent lee
ture, that the North American conti-
nent had the beginning of its formation
in islands of matter rising out Of the i'm
mense ocean, which grew until they fl
nally touched each other. Many of these
islands were volcanoes that threw up
matter that had formed below the sur
face of the water, and were larger below
the water than above it. The Hawaiian
islands have had many volcanoes, and
were much formed by them. The whole
area above the sea is no more than that
of the state of Massachusetts,, but their
combined bases must be equal TO the
whole OF New England and New York.
Thus the original islands of this conti-
nent could easily have been made to en-
large and JON each other, and the gran.
ite rock is so abundant was once erupted
from volcanoes, like flowing lava.
Among the first volcanic islands must
have been Greenland, Canada. east of
Winnipeg, the Atlantic district, the
Rocky mountains and the Sierra Neva-
das: but as the islands rose and enlarged
great depressions would naturally com.
mence and go ON, and in this way the
depressions of Hudsons bay, the NIissis.
sippi valley, and the Salt Lake and Ne
vada basins were formed. These de-
pressions would fill with massive
sediments. which would eventually be-
come rocks, and the depressions would
have a saucer or platter shape.-Chicagc

Lower and lower the light is failihg-.
Waves of color that come and 20;
Yellow and purple slowly paling,
Flush OF pink in the after glow;
Booming bees forsake the clover
Day is over.
Faster and faster from hazy hollow,
Night is closing ON field and wood;
Out OF the west the late-Uound swallow
Hasteus back TO the crumpled brood;
Stately winged, the night-hawks hover
Day is over!
Forest and fallow grow dark together,
A bell in the distance sounding slow;
Still the light of the rosy weather
Welling up in the after glow;
Now the starry skies discover
Day is over!
