streets Of american cities.

A writer in La Nature remarks that the
streets of American cities have been laid
out with the tape line and at right angles.
This, he observes, is very fine from a
geometrical standpoint, but carries with
it very serious consequences from an
economical point of view. In fact, if we
walk along the two sides of square in
stead of following a diagonal, the distance
is increased in the proportion of 40 per
cent; that is to say, instead of walking
100 feet, we walk 140. Hence a loss Of
time, strength and money. Professor
Haupt has calculated that the opening of
two diagonal streets in Philadelphia
$3.50. 900 Inhabitants would reduce the ex-
treme distances by one mile and quarter.
The annual number of passengers carried
by the cars being 125,000,000, the total
saving would reach about $1S0,000 per
mile travelled. The passengers would gain
1865 years in time and would save more
than 100000 horse power in motive

Novel Duel In France.

The French critic, Albert Delpit. New
Orleans creole, and M. Febvre. of the
Comedie Francaise, recently decided to
settle the difference arising out of tho
mutual attacks on each other by means OF
q duel. Their seconds arranged the pre-
lirninary conditions of the encounter,
which were that Delpit should read aloud
to his adversary five act comedy pro-
pared by him for the Comedie Franchise,
after which Febvre was to act some Of
his principal roles, and the one who first
showed signs of WEAKNESS was to be de-
clarcd the vanquished party. Before Del
pit concluded the reading of his drama
Febvre, with yawn, extended his hands
in token of reconciliation and declared
himself vanquished. ew Orleans Times

Paris, Trade in yinlets.

The enormous trade which is being
done in violets in Paris this year is re-
ported to be due to a discovery recently
made by well known author. He has
got sight of the recipe used by the En-
Press Josephine as means for rendering
her beautiful forever" and to which she
owed that marvellous tint which was the
wonder and despair of the French ladies of
the time. The wife of Napoleon used to
have boiling milk poured over basinful
of violet flowers, and with this decoction
she bathed her face and neck every morn
ing. No sooner was this old secret
brought to light than the Partisan ladies
began to order great basketfuls of violets
to be left at their doors daily, and this
home made cosmetic is reported to be in
daily use this season by thousands. The

Hero is my way of blocking paper fol
desk use: take pile half an inch OF
less in thickness of paper cut to one size,
place heavy weight on top close to one
edge of the whole length, and then ap
ply a thick coat of mucilage along the
smooth edges of tho sheets thus pressed
together. leave the blocks standing fif-
teen or twenty minutes, and again apply
the mucilage, allowing it to dry thor.
oughly. ! think this way of blocking
paper for every day use is far more satis-
factory than the ordinary method of using
paper binding, inasmuch as the sheets
separate more easily. keep in my desk
blocks of various sizes--the largest for
writing extended articles; others. of
smaller size, for briefer items; and others,
smaller still. for notes or memoranda.
Following this plan, it is impossible for a
drawer to get Uttered up with torn and
creased pieces; and while | am writing
the block will keep its position without
weighing. If the pad is more than half
an inch thick it is clumsy.-"M. c." in

Height Of European soldier.

It has generally been believed that the
reduction in average height of French
soldiers which followed Napoleon's wars,
due, Of course, to the immense slaughter
in those campaigns, made all of those
soldiers the shortest in Europe. But, &C.
cording to high medical and military
authority in Russia, the minimum height
Of the Russian and the French conscript
is about equal-five feet: while in most
other European countries the minimum
ranges from Eve feet one inch to Eve feet
