Josephine's Ultra Luxurious Habits.

The Empress Josephine, the great Ma
poleon's wife, was a woman OF the most
ultra luxurious habits. Four to six timesa
day did she change her dress, and she
never twice assumed any plain gown.
Her weekly allowance of stockings was
four dozen Of silk in summer, and IN
winter two dozen Of French silk hose
and three dozen Of the finest English
cotton stockings. AS for gloves and
shoes, Mime. B~onaparte used up three
dozen pairs q week, and she never wore
any stockings that had been washed, nor
donned more than once the same pair of
gloves, or shoes. The lace frills Of her
chemises cost $40 apiece, Every three
months she exchanged her diamonds and
other jewels, or had them newly set, ac-
cording to the mutations of fashion.
Once a month, too, all the domestics
in Josephine's household received fresh
l~iveries, and every thirty days her ward
robe was divided among her maids Of
honor. of these toilets the court lady
had four, with an equal number of sets
of i~ewelry-one for the Tuileries, one
for st. Cloud, one for Malmaison and one
for travelling. By touching certain
springs she could command for her bath
what perfumes her caprice required to
mix with the water, the reservoirs always
containing $4,000 francs worth of the
finest odors. BY touching other springs
a whole gallery Of pictures and prints of
q gay and vivacious character made its
appearance, and when she wished to
leave her bath she had but to touch a
bell. when. by a mechanical continuance,
she was lifted into IN elegant moderately
warmed and perfumed bed, where she
was nicely dried. Then. by another me-
chanical c~ontrivance, she was lifted on
toa splendid elastic sofa, which glided into
the adjoining boudoir .-once a Week.

Chlne.e Dog skin Industry.

The rearing Of dogs for their skins Is
pursued in China just as sheep farming
is in Australia. There are thousands Of
small dog and goat farms scattered over
the northern districts of Manchuria and
Mongolia. Nature has provided q mag
nificent protection 10 Withstand the cold
Of these northern attitudes, where the
thermometer (FahrenheiD goes down to
% dogs. below zero-that Is, 81 degs. Of
frost-and it Is doubtful if the dog skins
in any other part of the world arc to be
compared with those that come from
Manchuria or Mongolia, either in size,
length Of hair or quality. The fur is at
its best during the winter, and the dog IL
killed before the tbaw sets in, which is
effected, not by the knife, which might
iniure the fur, but by strangulation.
IL Is difficult 10 understand how the
farmers a e the animals for the
price they obtain for the hides. To pro-
vide a well made dog skin rug at least
eight animals must beslaughtered, which
at three taels per rug oi eighty inches by
sixty.three inches would allow not quite
ffty-five cents per dog, including the
sewing, choosing. ETC., for the skins must
fairly match in color. The flesh, how
ever, Is no doubt used for human food;
the market value thereof enters largely
into the farms profit and loss account.

Every one went to church in tho
colonial days of New England. Families
living at a distance from the meeting
house came prepared to spend the inter-
mission between the morning and after
noon services in the Sabbath day
houses" These houses, according to a
description published in Sanford's His
tory Of Connecticut were small log
structures, twenty-five feet long, ten
broad, and one story high. A chimney
in the middle divided the whole space
into two rooms, for the use of the two
families who united in building the
house. The furniture consisted of a few
chairs, a table, plates, dishes, and some
utensils for warming cooked food. On
a shelf were a Bible and two or three re-
ligious books.
In winter, on Sunday morning, before
starting for church, the mother of the
family put up food for dinner, not for
getting a jug Of cider. The family rode
in a large two horse sleigh, stopped at
the Sabbath house, kindled a fire and
then went into the cold meeting house,
where the minister preached in IN over
coat, with a muller about his neck and
mittens on his hands. The women car
ried heated stones in their muffs, and the
men drew bags over their feet. No
chronicler informs us how the boys and
girls managed to keep warm during the
long service.
At the conclusion of the morning serv-
ice the family hurried back to the warm
room of the Sabbath house, where they
took their dinner and drank their cider
from a pewter mug. Thanks were then
returned and the review of the sermon
began. If the sermon failed to furnish
sufficient matter to occupy the hour, a
chapter in the Bible was read, OF a few
passages from a religious book. Singing
and prayer sent them to the afternoon
service in q devotional frame Of mind, at
the conclusion of which they returned to
the Sabbath day house, extinguished the
fire, locked the door and started for
home. -youtit's COMPANION.

From q German Cyclopedia.

Here is the ridiculous way in which a
German, encyclopaedia, recently published in
Leipsic, describes the social life of a large
city in eastern New York, possibly
Albany: after dinner the gentlemen at
the reception followed the ladies to the
salon and lighted their cigars. Those
who did not smoke, chewed and spat
quite recklessly on the floor. Many
who did not use tobacco, took small
knives from their pockets, for an Ameri-
can gentleman always carries some kind
of a knife, and carved or cut sliyers from
the Chairs; almost all of them put
their feet on tables or chairs. This
behavior, which would insult our Ger
man ladies, the many beautiful Ameri-
can ladies in the room regarded as a mat
ter of course, much L the establishment

Houses Of the Hindus.

II Is noteworthy that there is no word
in the Hindustani language that signifies

to his fathers house. If there ara sew

cable, is built around an open space, or

apart for the special use Of each family
composing the household. although, as a

store their W property in their private
rooms.
The house, il that Of a poor man, il
built OF mud or sundried bricks; IL that
of a rich man, it Is built of kiln dried
bricks in a substantial manner. There is
usually n room, at least, set apart for
the men, where they may receive visits
from their friends without the privacy OF
the domestic circle being invaded. There
is a well, or small tank, in the court
yard, and perhaps a few flowers for idol
worship. II there are cows, horses OF

Thrift Of yIetorIa,s servant.

John Brown, who probably received
more presents than any other mental in
the history OF the English court, was
shrewd enough TO anticipate the embar-
rassment which would be caused to his
friends IL he died possessing the gifts
themselves, so it was the prudent us
tom Of that domestic TO sell nearly every
thing that he received within a few
weeks. John Brown was constantly
being complimented with costly gifts,
but he wisely preferred TO possess their
value in cash, and in several cases the
Bond street jeweler who had sold the
present TO the royal donor bought it back
within a short time from the recipient at
very nearly the cost price.-London

The Making Of the Violin.

''violins that are made as they should
be" explained the dealer, shave fifty
eight different pieces The wood Of the
belly, or sounding board, should be Of
soft red fir, a kind only growing on tho
Tyrolese mountains. 1t is light and
strong, and being OF loose grain gives
free passage to the waves Of sound. The
trees are cut in the winter after the sap
has ceased to flow, and the wood is thor
oughly seasoned before called fit for use.
The older the wood the better. For the
neck, back and sides Swiss sycamore is
regarded the only proper wood. 1t an
swers to a different note than the fir, a
fact that has been found necessary to the
highest harmony. The violins are shaped
by exact rule, but the slightest variation
in any Of the curve gives a difference of
tone, 80 that nc two instruments sound
exactly alike"
Several violins of the same make and
in all respects apparently alike were
tested to demonstrate this. They were
all tuned in fifths, the lowest giving what
is technically known as middle G, this
being the correct way to tune a violin,
but under the bow there was a marked
difference in the quality of tone.
''Did it ever occur to you, was asked
the reporter, that the strain nut on a
violin by the strings is something ire
mendousa When tuned to concert pitch
the tension of each string is about eighty
pounds, making 800 pounds for the four.
Yet the thin shell, so frail that a babe
could splinter it, will resist that strain
for centuries. OF course, the body is
strengthened by little strips glued inside
at different points; but it seems one the
less marvellous to me. Globe. Democrat.

A Young Doctors sarewdness.

A young physician relates that, being
called upon to attend a patient who, ne

digniied gentleman instead Of a person
of almost boyish appearance, he took
with him an assistant, having given him
instructions always to address him as
doctor" and to act toward him in the
most deferential way. This plan to win
his patients trust and respect succeeded
admirably, and was the means OF in

every time a lemon is squeezed in n of
these machines the acid of the lemon,

solves the same and forms a poisonous

hard ON MILLER.

WARNER MILLER, who, according to
the Harrisonian description of the bat
tie, fell on the outside of the ram
fell. Mr.. MILLER's brilliant imitation
OF ARNOLD WINKELRIED's feat didn't
pan out as he had anticipated. He sup
posed that the least reward for his valOr
would be the offer of a cabinet position.
Instead of that. the HARRISON managers
are imbued with the idea that good
feed at the Union League club
rooms was compensation enough for
Mr.. MIId.ER's sacrifice, and they
are now pushing TOM PLATT for
the cabinet Office WARNER MILLER
coveted. Chairman Quay insinuates
that it would be bad policy for the ma
tional Republican party to identify it
self with WARNER MILLER's extreme
views on. the liquor question, and ac-
cordingly it has been decided to let Mr..
MILLER drop out of sight until he and
his temperance friends are again
needed to pull Republican chestnuts
out of the fire. The treatment that MI.
MILLER is receiving is not only an exhi-
hilton of gross party ingratitude, but it
emphasizes what the GLOBE has hereto
fore said-that as party the Republic
cans are only interested in temperance
to the extent of capturing temperance
voters. So far as theirq qualifications for
the Office of secretary of treasury are
concerned, MILLER would be a better
man than PLATT; yet it would be dis
appointment to Western Republicans
if either should be named for this impor-
tant cabinet position.

THOSE CALUMNIEs.

President CLEVELAND has been the
worst maligned man in this country.
The ISLANDERS concerning his domestic
life, which have but recently appeared
in print, have been in circulation for a
long time, and were used most effect
lively against him in the late election.
When, as things appeared on the surface,
every one supposed the campaign was
being conducted Oh clean basis and
absolutely free from personal defama-
ton, as matter of fact these calumnieS
had been put into circulation months
ago, and passed from mouth to mouth in
bated breath for the very purpose of In
juring the man against whom they were
directed. 1t was a cowardly device of
the politicians to carry a point against
the man who had been renominated by
his party. 1t was miserably mean de-
vice to infiict injury on political OPP
ponent, as every fair-minded person
will admit; but it had its effect. and
doubtless the originators Of the scandals
are happy at the result. 1t is singular
that a man of Mr.. DEPEw's high stand
Ing SnOulu Have given currency W lileSe
calumnies. He says that he got them
secondhand and didn't believe them.
but admits having repeated them to
others, apparently unconscious of the
fact that, coming from him, even though
third-handed, they received an indorse-
ment that gave them semblance of
truth. 1t is too late now to mend the
wrong they did, but it is not too late for
the American people to set the seal of
condemnation upon such low political
trickery.
