How to Split q Sheet of Paper.
Paper Trade Journal.

Paper Trade Journal
1t is one of the most remarkable properties of
that wonderful product, paper, that it can be
split into two or even three parts. however thin
the sheet. We have seen leaf oe the Illus
trated News thus divided in three parts. or
three thin leaves. One consisted of the surface
on which the engravings are printed: another
was the side containing the letter press, and a
perfectly blank piece on each side was the paper
that lay between. Many people who have not
seen this done might think it impossible; yet it
is no: only possible but extremely easy, as we
shall show: Get piece of plate-glass and place
on it sheet of paper; then let the latter be
thoroughly soaked. With care and little
dexterty the sheet can be split by the top sur
face being removed. But the best plan is to
paste a piece of cloth or strong paper to each
side of the sheet to be split When dry, vio-
lenty and without hesitation pull the two pieces
assunder, when part of the sheet will be found
to have adhered to one and part to the other.
Soften the paste in water, and the pieces can
easily be removed from the cloth. The process is
generally demonstrated as matter of curiosity,
yet it can be utilized in various ways. 1t want
to paste in a scrap book q newspaper article
printed on both sides of the paper. and possess
only one copy, it is very convenient to know how
to detach the one side from the other The pa
per- when split, as may be imagined is more
transparent than it was before being subjected to
the operation, and the printing-ink somewhat
duller; otherwise the two pieces present the ap-
pearance of the original if again brought togeth-
err Some time ago the information of how to do
this splitting was advertised to be sold for con-
siderable sum- We now impart it to all our
readers gratuitously.

A singular trial has just taken place before the
criminal tribunal of Colmar. There is tradi-
tional usage in Alsace, evidently relic of ruder
times, that, at the close Of marriage feast, the
bride gives one of her garters to the BRIDE
grooms best man, who forthwith divides it into
pieces, which are divided among the guests.
The niece of the burgomaster Of Coschweier,
near Schlettstadt, was lately married to resi-
dent of Uttenheim. Tbs chief public authori-
ties Of all three places were present at the fes-
tivites, and the traditional ceremony was OBJ
served. The garter happened to be of silk
ribbon, striped red, white and blue. Following
the usual custom, the gentlemen wore their
fragments of the garter pinned at the coat but
ton-hole. One of the guests. the proprietor of a
hotel at Schlettstadt happening to be at q rail-
way station of that town the next morning. was
upbraided by the guard of the. train for his dis
loyalty in Haunting the French tricolor in Ger
man town. and so endangering the public peace
The public prosecutor heard of the affair, and
at once instituted criminal proceedings against
all the male guests including the three burgo-
masters. for publicly displaying fragments of
the offending garter He based his proceedings
on an ordinance passed by the French provision
al government in the revolutionary period Of
1848, forbidding the display of emblems calcu-
lated to disturb the public peace; but the Colmar
tribunal acquitted the accused on the ground
that all the circumstances negatived the suggest
ion that they intended to make political demon
stration, or to irritate German feeling by dis
playing French emblem. Much ridlcule has
been heaped on the public prosecutor for falling
back on an obsolete French ordinance to punish
a supposed display of affection toward France.

Notwithstanding the fact that the couture
dressed very high is the leading style in hair
dressing, the low Grecian coil is not by any
means discarded. The latter mode of arranging
the hair is followed without change season after
season. by sensible women who are satisfied that
the high couture is not becoming. They, there
fore, pay attention to the fashionable muta-
tons in Undressing, and save themselves any
thought or worry in the matter
For those to whom the stately style of couture
is found most becoming, there are now q number
of pretty and graceful modes of arranging the
tresses. One is called the Leah style, in
which the hair is all combed to the crown of the
head, and there tied. very wide basket-pleat-
ing is then made of the entire length of hair, and
when completed this is laid in nigh upright
coil about the head and above the waved front.
A large jewelled comb is set at the back just
where the hair is first tied. For another style,
the hair is tied. then disposed all over the crown
of the head in coils or soft loops. these held in
place by head pins set with electric" diamonds.
With evening dress blondes wear strings OF
pearls intertwined with these coils; brunettes
choose garnets.

What Men Should Wear on Dress Occasions.
York Mail and Eyn


The following will show the differences Of
opinion that prevail among the best authorities
as to what it is proper to wear, outside of the
dress suit, upon dress occasions: One person,
foremost among outfitters, finds great demand
for shirt bosoms Of plain linen, covered with en-
broidered dots, line of embroidery running
down the center, and having two eyelets for
studs Another dealer, with frst-class line of
trade, advocates the same bosom, without the
line of embroidery that runs down the center
Yet another dealer of equally good standing says
that his customers demand either cy-figured
or the fifty plated bosom, the plaits, Of course,
being very fine. Plain linen bosoms are how
ever, In great demand, and are probably worn by
the best dressers more than Others The collar
worn with the first style of bosom mentioned is
from II to inches in height. with turned
points. The cuffs are linked, and just fit the
prevailing style in coat sleeves. With the
second bosom mentioned, the collar is IL inches
in height with the ends just meeting or tapping
a trifie. The cuffs may be either round or
square, with the link holes in the centre of the
cuffs Gloves are matter of dispute also, one
dealer saying lavender, either self OF black
stitched. another, white or pearl. with stitching
like the above, and yet another dealer says
pearl. with black stitching only, is proper. For
afternoon affairs, one dealer states that ten
shades only are to be worn. an
other that either pearl or tan can be
drawn on with impunity, and the
Lavender and pearl dealer mentioned in the
last sentence makes his rule hold good for day
time and night All agree that the half hose to
be worn with pumps should be of the finest and
plainest black silk. The tie for evening dress,
one says, must needs be made of lawn, another
that it should be of cambria but as there is such
little difference between the two materials, it
matters little which is worn. For semi-toilet a
white sfour-in-hand" tied in q sailor knot is the
correct caper.D This seems 10 be the style
agreed upon as proper by all the dealers men
toned, save one, who only disagrees mas
much as he claims that the navy blue fourth
hand is equally as allowable. Either plain
white linen handkorchiefs, with a narrow hem
stitched border. or white pongee Japanese
make are proper to carry, the latter having q

Raleigh. N. o.. Special.
Romulus Sturdevant, an estimable citizen re-
siding in Wake county, has a son John, sixteen
years DID, who said to an assemblage last week
that he had received direct injunction from
God to preach the gospel to all the nations of
the EARTH and that this injunction had been ac-
companied by declaration on the part of the
Almighty that, in order to further the conf
dence of the people in the special call made
upon him, the boy would be made blind for
two days and nights The boy was stricken
blind at IL o'clock last night, and still continues
in that condition, but he says he will be restored
tomorrow night He says God also told him
that if the people did not believe the injunction
given. another command and test would be in
stituted. The boy preached his first sermon last
Thursday night, and last night preached again.
He said that God prescribed the text, which was
taken from Samuel i. IL. and the latter clause Of
the second verse
II have followed thee from my childhood,
even unto this day"
The boy has been attending school. He is in
good health, and has ordinary education.
While preaching he appears as if asleep or in a
trance; but when the benedictiou is announced
he throws OUT his arms and shows evidence Of
revival.
