A VALUABLE PIPE.
History of the First Meerschaum Pipe an
Its HunhIa AJaLar

History of the First Meerschaum Pipe and
Its Humble Maker.
In 1928 there lived in Pesth, the capi.
tai of Hungary, Karol Kowates, a
shoemaker, whose ingenuity in cutting
and carving on wood, etc., brought him
in contact with Count Andrassy, an.
cestor of the present Prime Minister OF
Austria, with whom he became favor.
lite, The Count, on his return from q
mission to Turkey. brought with him
large piece of whitish clay, which had
been presented to him as a curiosity on
account of its extraordinary light
specific gravity. 1t .struck the shoe
maker that being porus, it must nat
urally be well adapted for pipes, as
it would absorb the nicotine. The ex-
pertinent was tried, and Karol cut
pipe for the Count and one for himself.
But in pursuit of his trade he could not
keep his hands clean, and many a
piece of wax became attached to the
pipe. The clay, however, instead of
assuming dirty appearance, as
was naturally to be expected, when
Karol wiped it off, received wherever
the wax had touched, q clear brown
polish, instead of the dull white it pre-
viously had. Attributing this change
in the tint to the proper source, he
waxed the whole surface, and, polish
ing the pipe, again smoked it, and no.
ticed how admirably and beautifully it
colored; also how much more sweet
the pipe smoked after being waxed.
Karol had struck the smoking philoso-
piers stone; and other noblemen,
hearing of the wonderful properties of
this singular species of clay, imported
it in considerable quantities for the
manufacture of pipes. The natural
scarcity of this much esteemed article,
and the great cost of its transporta-
ton in those days of limited facilities
for transportation, rendered its use ex-
clusively confined to the richest Eu-
ropean noblemen until 1880, when it
became more general article of trade.
The first meerschaum pipe made by
Karol Kowates has been preserved in
the museum ct Pesth.-ChyiStian al
Work.

An Ungallant Gosslper Tells an Odd Tale Of
Tattooing and Comeliness.
The fashionable edict has gone forth
that it is the proper thing to look
healthy and robust. The day of the
confirmed invalid, "delicate flower"
and all that sort of thing, is passed,
and now our bellies are striving to see
who can look the hardest. The
daughter of distinguished naval
officer has been one of the leaders of
the "healthy craze" and is now for
that matter. Her plump, well-rounded
figure and swinging gait can be seen
on Pennsylvania avenue nearly every
afternoon, rain or shine, and she has
the ruddiest pair Of cheeks in Washing
ton. She looks the perfect picture Of
health, but somo of her sharp sisters
have been tracking up the secret of how
her pale complexion disappeared so
suddenly. 1t appears, so they say, the
young lady called in the services of an
old sailor who had known her ever
since she was 'wee bit of q thing"
and told him she was miserable because
she never could have any color in her
face. She asked him to tattoo her
cheeks a delicate shade of red, and,
although the operation was quite pain.
full, she stood it bravely, and the con,
sequence is that she will have a red face
even after death. It's said that several
society bellies contemplate undergoing
the same course of treatment Wash

Both We're Counterfelts.

= A curious anecdote is related of a
violin-maker SO skil.ful in his trade that
he could initiate an old violin to perfec-
ton. One day fiddler, more eminent
than honest, brought him a fine Gre
monia, and said, with twinkle in his
eye: 81 want you TO make me an exact
copy of this Amati." The maker
knew to whom the fiddle belonged, and
guessing the object promised to have it
ready in two months. At the end of
that time the player returned, paid the
price and received the two violins; but
when he got home and examined them
close he found both were counterfeits,
the clever imitator having kept the true
Amati for himself. Philadelphia Press.

The Use OF Homing Pigeons.

The use of pigeons by C. T. Arnoux as
| message bearers, in the Yacht races of last
| September, proves conclusivey the value
the birds might have as messengers from
off the water. The purpose was the thought
| of the last moment, and when almost too
| late to make the Necessary preparations
The arrangements were hasty and the ma
terial homed at several centers, some of
| them miles away from the center of use.
Still, with all drawbacks, insuficiencies,
and mistakes, it was evident to the most
| prejudiced that with birds trained for the
work, and with the atmospheric conditions
at all favorable, the birds would six times
out of seven prove TO be of the greatest
value; and failing the seventh, we would
be only where We are without them. The
| messages were each not less than ten pages
of manifold note, and were carried upon
the middle feathers of the tail, to which
they were fastened by fine copper wire,
wound about and pressed flat, to hold the
message close to the feather. The editor of
a newspaper served by these pigeons said !:
Z" 1t gives me peculiar sensation to receive
copy from the hand of one know TO be
ont of reach upon the water, and to feel
that he may talk to me bat cannot answer
back. 1t is wonder to ME after this ex-
perience that the officers of any vessel, ex-
cursion steamer, yacht, sail or tug boat
should be willing to leave the shore with
out this means of communicating with it."
Very many of the merchant marine
especially in European waters, have pig
cons on board for use in communicating
with the vessel from the small boats away
from it or from the shore These birds, it
is said never mistake another vessel Tor
their own when at dock or in the harbor
1t has been remarked of several flights that
the birds in exercising. when lar ont of
sight of land, viii go away for hours at a
time, and upon their return will have dried
mud on their feet and legs, showing them
to have been upon shore.
A. P. Baldwin experimental with pig
cons for sea service twice in 1885, and to
his satisfaction. One bird liberated by
officer Groom, Of the Waesland, at 1 o'clock
in the afternoon, when 315 miles from
Sandy Hook, was in the loft at evening
Another let go from the Circassia at 8

And they took the light
vi the laughing stars and framed her
In smile of white:
ana they made her hair of gloomy
Moonshine, and they brought her to me
In solemn night.
In a solemn night of summer,
When my heart of gloom
Blossomed up to meet the conner
Like rose in bloom
All torebodings that distressed me
forgot as joy caressed me,
flying joy, that caught and pressed me
In the arms of doom.)
Only spake the little lisper
In the angel tongue
Yet /, listening, heard her whisper:
Songs are only sung
Here below that they may grieve you
Tales are told you to deceive you
so must Leonainie leave YOU
While her love is young"

Every heart but mine seemed gifted
With the voice of prayer, and lifted
Where my Leonainie drifted
