At the mining bureau Is to be seen min
eral labeled "Ozocenite-From Utah y
Very little seems to be known generally re
garding it, though it is very valuable. 1t
is also called Utahcenite, Claytonia, Min.
eral Wax, or Native Paraflin. A reporter
found u gentleman from Utah who had seen
the mineral in its native state and gave out
the following information regarding it,
The greatest deposit is found in Galicia,
Austria, where it is mined to a consider
able extent by men, women and children.
1t is used principally for the purpose OF
making candles for the Greek church of
Russia. During the process of refinement
score of articles of commerce are produced,
including cosmetics and lubricants. The
crude material is black, but by treatment is
converted into an almost transparent white
color. 1t is odorless, burns readily, but
makes no stain when dropped on the hand
In appearance it is something like asphalt
tum. 1t was discovered in Utah about
ten years ago, about 100 miles southeast of
Salt Lake City, on the line of the Denver
and Rio Grande Western railway. It is
in thin veins in sandstone formation.
Several companies have at different times
prospected the locality, without, however,
having found it in sufficient quantities to
make the mining of it lucrative. In the
country round about are deposits of coal
asphaltum and Gil bearing shale. Mineral
wax is said to be worth $3.50 or $500 a ton.

An impression seems to prevail abroad that

ants of the Spaniards, are great smokers l
have made particular inquiries, but have
found the contrary to be the case How could
1t be different The caraquennas show such

IL seems, however, that certain elderly ladies
occasionally enjoy good cigar when among
themselves, but never i'll the society of gentle
men Probably they would indulge in it a
little more if cigars and tobacco wers better
IN venezuela. But there are no good cigars
to be had
The native tobacco although grown in
large quantity, is far below the average, and
havana cigars are very expensive OF cica-
rettes, American or Turkish are almost mn
known, and but those of Havana moke are
used Among the women of the lower classes
cigarette smoking is far more common, and
women of a certain, or, to express If mora
plainly, OF an uncertain, ago indulge a great
deal III cigar smoking. A curious and yery
general habit among them is smoking cigars
inverted, with the burning end inside the
mouth. have seen this frequently in the
west India Islands, at Curacao, and among
the women of Venezuela, but never noticed
men lndulgins in this risky practice. They
say cigars taste much better if smoked in this
way, but must leave it to the readers to de-
cide Tor themselves.-E. De Hesse Wartecc

| Osman's chief characteristic is a reck less

life and religion; he never seems to bother
himself about either washing his person or

away, every evening the faithful are sum-

Themselves to Blame.

For many Of the sins of mankind women
have themselves to blame. First, for their
viciousnes' and coarseness, women being
either too ignorant or too cowardly to exact
from men the same standard of virtue which
men expect from them. Secondly, for their
tyranny, because tho laws and customs of
many generations have placed women far too
much in the power of men, and even were it
not 80 their own warm affections make them
too easy slaves. Thirdly, for the selflshness
which--tlouhtless with righteous reason
is so deeply implanted in the masculine
breast that a thoroughly unselflsh man is al
most lusus nature. And no wonder, since
from his cradle his womenkind have adored
him. Mothers, nurses, sisters all join in
sweet flattery, the perpetual acquicscence,
which makes hin; rs boy and man think far
too much of himself
Then, perhaps, comes a period of innocent
tyranny from his sweetheart, which no soon
repays by tyrannizing over his wife. Thus,
except that brief season when love has
Struck the chord OF self, which, trembling,
passed In music out OF sight,
there is for the ordinary mani do not say
the ideal man, or even the specially good
man--no time in his life when he was not
bolstered up in his only too natural egotism
by the foolish subservience or adoring love
servitude of the women about him.-Corn-

Unlucky DAYS for Weddings.

III is well to recall one or two interesting
superstltions that were religiously noted in
the time of our grandmothers. In the first
place. according to an ancient and reliable
chronicle, there are thirty-two days in the
year that are especially unlucky for mar
rlases and journeys. They are as follows.

and Z; June and Is; July and 10; Aug, Is
and u; Sept and 4 Oct. 7; Nov. is and 10
and Dec 10, 10 and II. Everybody knows
That Friday is the most unlucky day for a
wedding, while Wednesday and THURSDAY
are tne iucklest, Our grandmothers believed
,i':s ~ was most unfortunate thing if the
bride, after finishing her toilet and leov;no
her looking glass, should turn around apain

Tho present Is prominently the era OF
woman. The vast progress made by tho sex
toward higher physical and intellectual
plane Is axerting its eject upon body and
mind to produce that species OF development
which we term beauty. This evolution will
go on until IL reaches climax, when do
tersoration will commence Women have
Tor ages been under restraint, like plants
kept where there IL deficient sunlight. The
growing tendencies toward emancipation re-
move the physical restraint and illumine the
intellectual atmosphere and so Improvement
goes on, but finally there will come a time
when there will be too much sunshine, and an
excess of growth without the pruning or
training which are necessary to maintain
perfect development
Then the deterioration will commence
Women will become In strength, energy and
physical prowess more like men, and, alas
more like mon in morals, while the men will
grow correspondingly effeminate and physic-
ally feeble. This will simply DO tho result of
excessive luxury, tho swing of tho pendulum
to the extreme OF civilization In contrast to
Its starting point in savagcry. But it will BIO
long time before the ultimate limit of
social revolution can be reached, and we will
venture tt fophesy that the American
women OF the Twentieth century will reach a

make them the most beautiful in the world,

WaSte of Wool Grensa

mllliols' of pounds of wool grease arc wasted
annually in the United States which could
be saved and used instead of the English
ana French degras grease so literally i'm
ported for tanners use. The speaker stated
that the viscous, absolutely non drying oil
or grease was being poured into the rivers of
The New England and middle states to the
extent of 40, 900, 900 pounds n year. The
WOODEN manufacturers are polluting the
streams with it, but it is expected that loud
protests will soon bo entered against the
practice, and then necessity, the mother
Of invention, will devise some means of
converting it to commercial uses. II hos
oeen proposed to treat wool with naphtha

purified. The ordinary method of securing
WOOL is by the use of alkalies, and the Eu

The kings head was first used as one of the
hall marks on English silver in 1884. The
tory is that George III, having attended

pressed with the rich display of plate used on
that occasion His majesty was in need of
money, it being just after the close of the
American war, and the idea was suggested

Care of the Complexion.

In closing my talk with the ladies on this
| subject would classify and sum up .iy ad.
vice something like this:
Train your features to composure, and
avoid all grimacing habits.
Exercise much in the open air.
Use oils, creams and fruit freely in your
diet.
Drink simple, blood purifying herb teas
frequently
Do not wash your faces oftener than once q
day, but apply some harmless cream or meal
ut least twice in twenty-four hours
If niggardly Nature or jealous Time on a
hot summer day necessitates the addition of
powder puff to your toilet articles, use it
with discretion and moderation.
And in addition to all this you must keep
your minds busy, your thoughts cheerful
and your souls free from bitterness il you
would preserve fresh, attractive exterior
beyond the heeting springtime Of youth
