About Stage Shoes.

Being under the glare of the foot
lights actresses feet slow plainly, so
the foot is made to appear small by
lifting the heel as high as possible. On
the foot these shoes are almost iDtol-
cradle, sometimes causing the greatest
pain. Usually they are worn only
during the scene. after which they are
taken off and easier slippers are put on
until the time for the actress to 90 be-
fore the spectators arrives, when her
instruments of torture 60 on again.
Ballet dancers slippers have to be
stifened from the toe halfway back
to the heel on the sole. the sides, and
the top, to enable the dancer to stand
on the point of her toe. while bouquets
are thrown at her and the people bur-
rah. By supreme effort of her will.
The shoe is built up little at time
while it is on the last by putting on
with brush first layer of flour paste,
then piece of linen, then, after it is
dry, more paste and some tenacious
paper. The operation is repeated un-
til the structure is thick enough to
bear weight. The linen makes the
shoe flexible. while the paper stifens

The Witch's Ladder.

Magic, witchcraft, ordcaIs, omens,
we have them all among US, an inch
under the social surface. Take the
''Witchs Ladder found in Somerset,
a new rope threaded with birds
feathers. Mr.. j. Nj. Frazier seems to
have found out the uses of this valuable
weapon, uses to which the local old
women would not confess. In Scot
land something of the kind is used by
Highlanders for magically milking
their neighbors' kline. By milking the
rope the fluid is extracted from the
COWS of other people. Sometimes the
rope is made from the tail hairs of
the COWS; it is not stuck full of feath-
ers. In Bohemia the rope must be a
bell-rope and it affects all the cattle
within hearing of the bell. How could
people ever begin to believe such non
sense in Bohemia or Skye?
Edmund Robinson, we may charit-
ably believe, was drunk when he saw
the trick performed in 1858. He
averred, in a regular deposition, that
he beheld "divers of the company 90
to the barn, he followed after, and saw
six of them kneeling, and pulling at
Ola S6E tI dI lupus, HhlSh WcIC 1doIOhOd
or tied to the top of the house. at or
with which pulling" Observe the deli
cate accuracy "came then, in this in
formers sight, flesh smoking, butter
in Jumps, and milk as it were skim
ming from the said ropes, all of which
fell into basins which were placed I'M
der the said ropes" The Witch's Lad
der, in fact, has a loop for fastening,
we presume, to the roof of the house.
Now, can the Australian black fellows
be more childishly absurd than our
modern friends of the magic rope?
The Australian doctors suck disease
out of patients through string. The
Indian witch sucks her enemy's blood,
he beng at a distance, like the cows,
in the same way. The Australian
puts feathers on his magic stick, APP
parently that it may fly to his foeman.
The feathers on the Witch's Ladder
NAV have been meant, as Mr.. Frazier
says. for a similar purpose. Again,
savages of many countries think that
the souls of the dead migrate into
snakes, butterflies, and other creatures.
Is everybody in Cornwall much wiser?

The Bananas of Colombia.

In Colombia will be found about six
teen kinds of platano (the name gen
orally given to the banana). The
common platano grows from one foot
to sixteen inches long, and is an in
digenous plant. The dominica never
grows more than ten inches. 1t is a
very fine platano, and its name is de-
rived from its native place, Dominica.
The maritu, the smallest of three
varieties of the common platano, is
the one well known here as the red
banana. The common guinea, is also
an indigenous fruit aud grows as large
as the red banana. The apple guinea,
when in full size, is only six inches,
and the smallest one is the fig of
Guinea. The name of this suggests its
taste, which is like that of the Ameri-
can apple. 1t is supposed to have
originated IN Guinea. The English
banana is the one ordinarily used in
this country. 1t is so called because
it originated in England's domain.
The French guinea is small and red
and is a native of Martinica. All
these guineos are of green color
first and become gradually yellow as
they ripen. The common platano and
the dominica are alike in all respects
except in size and thickness, and both
are of universal use among the
Spanish-speaking people. When they
are green OF yellow the people of
| Colombia roast, boil, or fry them.
They supply the place of bread and
vegetables. They are used in soup,
and mixed with milk and eggs, are
made into fritters. When green the
people cut them into four slices and
dry them in the open sun. When
dried meal is made from them,
which is ordinarily used to make
gruels and fritters. When they are
ripe they are served as fruits usually.
In that condition they are roasted
with the skin, and when done mush
is made of them and eaten in milk.
They are also preserved with sugar
and served as desserts. When
thoroughly ripened and at the point of
being spoiled, they are passed through
hot water and placed in the open air
for two or three weeks. There they
become nicely preserved, and ready
for use on the dinner table. Words
fail me to praise worthilY a product
that actually constitutes the staple food
of many millions of people in South
America. The best authors of these
countries have written many beautiful
poems on the merits and usefulness of
the platanO alone.-W ashtRQtO71 Star.

Consumption Cured by Buttermilk.

pronounced by her physician fatally
i'll with consumption, and who was APP
parently dying as fast as that slow
pacing disease could carry her off, was
told by a neighbor that she had been

Queer Religious Sects in Russia.

! M. Tsakni, o Russian writer, has
| Just published an interesting work
upon curious religious sects in Russia.
1t appears that in the Empire there are
no less than 100000 of devout fol-
lowers of insane and cranky notions of
Christianity; and new religions or
sects are constantly springing up in
spite of all the efforts of tile Russian
authorities.
One of these sects is called the Run
Always. They fly from their villages
or towns. They believe in returning
to a wild state of existence, destroying
their identity as much as possible, and
living like savages. Civilization they
regard as the great curse of humanity.
They also carry on a sort of brigand-
age, and one of their most sacred du-
ties is to rob churches.
There is another sect, calling them
selves Christs. They adore one an
other. Crazy dancing forms part of
their religious ceremonies.
The SkoptsJs. mother religious body,
believe in standardization. They are
also expert dancers and tumblers.
Barnum would be proud of such set
of acrobats.
There is another sect that never
speak. They make signs skillfully.
Blood sacrifices form part of the re-
ligion of other fanatics. and the butch
ering of sons and daughters to appease
the wrath of the Lord is getting rather
too common.
There are also missionaries who go
around preaching the glories and
beauties of suicide and its absolute
necessity for salvation. A Mr.. Souck-
hoff is the leader of this gang. He
was arrested for murder some time
ago, but managed to escape, and
turned up in village where he
preached so hard in favor of murder
and suicide that several of his follow
ers cut each others threats, and others
shut themselves up in their houses and
burned themselves to death.

Senator Edmunds' LittIo Joke.

A story is now going the rounds of
the Hobbies in Washington at the ex-
pense of Senator Edmunds. The
senator three summers ago took Il va
cation to the lower Canadian prOvin-
ces, and among other cities which he
visited was St. John, New Brunswick.
The old man was very facetious, and
cracked many an alleged joke with the
reporters who called upon HIM. They
played off very childlike, and the sem
atOr was just beside himself with en-
joyment. He was laborng under the
delusion that he was fooling them,
while they were really working him
for all he was worth.
There were about ten reporters in
the city, all told, and they, one after
the other, kept up continuous round
of interviews. The old man was
amused at the questions, and about 9
o'clock in the evening he was in high
feather. He had never struck such
crowd of raws in his life, he be-
leved
He thought he would surround HIM
self with a little ecentricity, so after
that hour when reporter called he
went to the door himself, opened it
just enough to give him space to poke
out the ear-trumpet which he carried,
and then ordered the caller to an
nounce himself The boys were not
slow to catch on. One of them went
out and purchased a pint of milk.
Then he went to see Mr.. Edmunds.
Mr.. Edmunds played his little ruse.
The only thing that could be seen was
the bowl of the ear-trumpet, while the
voice came: "'Who are you?"
There was no verbal answer. The
reporter promptly poured the pint of
milk into the ear-trumpet, and it was
not until the fluid was running in rivu-
lets through his whiskers and streak
ing his somber suit of black that the
senator realized that he had been the
victim of a practical joke. There
were no more interviews that night.
Senator Edmunds left the city by the
early train next morning, and never
returned.
