APUBLIo test took place at the Ches-
ter (Pa.) rolling mills recently of the
new device for the saving of fuel and
improving of iron. The process is
simply the spraying of fine coal, re-
duced by the cyclone pulverizer to a
powder, into chamber attached to the
furnace, in which the combustion is so
perfect that all the waste hitherto oc-
curing in smoke and ashes is entirely
obviated. The general result showed
q saving of between forty and fifty per
cent. of coal. a saving of fifty per cent.
in time of heating the farnace and a
greatly improved quality of iron.

Gently, in the case of an English
woman named Turner, who had mar
ried an American named Thompson,
and had had the marriage annulled by
an American court. the judge held that
the woman having married an Ameri-

was entitled to the same laws as her
husbands; and, therefore. the decree
pronounced in America was binding in
England without further decree from
an English court.

Bill Nye Relates a '1IournfuI Incident in
Journalistic Life.
1 have an acquaintance who assists in editing
a morning paper, but he does not believe in
allowing his children to utterly forget him.
He does not want his boys to think they
orphans just because he is not always at
home. He IS 6 man of very strong viii and
strict discipIinarian. So he gets a holiday
every two weeks in order to go home and dc
up his Furnishing.
One time he found that his eldest or Oldest
sCn-I do not know which, because am
away from home without my hbrary-had
violated the rules of the house in a sad man
ner
AS near IS I am able to come at the facts,
the boy had taken a quart of corn and
sewed a long thread through each kernel,
showing great patience and perseverance in
SO doing. He had then tied the ends of the
threads all together into one knot and scat
tered the corn where a large flock of geese
had been in the habit OF asSOciating and pool
ing for mutual profit and inprovemdt.
A man who came along that way about
dusk said he saw about thirty geese standing
around in a circle looking reprOachfully at
each other and trying to agree on some
method by which they could all go home to-
gether without turning part of their crowd
wrong side out, while behind a high board
fence there was a boy who seemed to be en-
jOying himself in Il small way.
The incident was reported to the boys faith
er, who came home and placed his son under
a large dry goods box in the cellar, after
which he piled three or four hundred pounds
of coal on top Of the inverted box. He then
made a few remarks for the boys good
which were followed by the smotbered re-
mark: ''Ratsn' from the inside of the box
After ordering that the box should not be
disturbed until his return, my friend put on
his coat and went back to his work.
This was just as the returns began to re
turn in the autumn Of "a. My friend did not
go home for two weeks and forgot all about
the boy until it came to do up his punishment
for the fortnight.
When the truth flashed over him he was
filed with the keenesG remOrse, and sJvent
home as soon as he had sent in the last proof
but when he went down the cellar he found
the box empty and the following note written
on It with pencil:
''Dear Paw do not weap for me have went
away from my happy home WHARF was Onc
so gay and free do Not assassinate NAV becu2
she Pride up the box with a stick OF cord
wood yesterday and fed Me she left the box
So could bust 4th am gone Far Far Away

to be Apart. ennyhOw it is better for Me tC
be apart like being Apart a Good deal better

a Nove1 Decoration.

Did you ever hear of stained glass windows
being made out of stones? Passing down
Chestnut street the other morning l noticed
some panels in the front door of private res
idence which were filed with small, roug'
pebbles together with a number of polished
shells, placed in the corners of some deco
rative ornament composed of the translucent
material known as Opalescent or mosaic
glass. As an architect, was naturally inter
ested in such a novel combination, and upon
Investigation discovered the origin of the
work 1t seems that the occupant of the
house was down in Florida last year, and his
children made a collection Of whole bags of
pebbles and shells, the former being of the
rudest description. Some weeks ago he was
cOnversing with an eastern art man, who
made the boast that he could construct a win
low out of almost anything. The pebbles
and shells were accordingly given him, with
the above result. The effect is certainly in
teresting to the passer by and charming in its
arrangement of colors when viewed from the

Economical Art Students in Paris.

But it is in clothing, rather than in food,
that student can best economic. To begin
with, fine feathers are out of place in a
studio; old clothes are the only wear. Hence
clothes that were held too shabby for Boston,
New York and st. Louis, renew their youth
for many seasons in the Partisan ateliers
When at length the wearer of these cher
ished garments frds that they have lapsed
into hopeless decay, and that, in Difference to
society, he must purchase new ones, he COM
monty chooses corduroy, a material here con
secrated TO the use of artists and day labor
ers The colored flannel shirt is in high
favor among many American students, part
ly for comfort, partly for economy and part
~ in consequence of the contempt which any
American who has lived under the bright in
huence of the Troy laundry must feel for the
dingy lack lustre creations of the Partisan
washerwoman.
AS for boots and shoes, they are universally
worn, sometimes too much so. Too high a
polish is considered vulgar, especially for sculp
tors. Many of the boys do not disdain to wear
sabot, when working on a winter day in a
damp studio, or when sketching in the country.
A student seldom makes a vulgar display
of whole new suit of clothes. Why" said
one young philosopher, Il don't own an entire
suit of good clothes; and If | did, | should
consider it wild extravaganza for poor stu
dent like me to put them on all at once, unless
on very swell occasion. IL have on my
good hat, it's against my principles to wear
my good shoes, for no one can appreciate
them both at the same time. ''-Palis Cor.
