NEW MAIL SCALES.

Designed to Facilitate the Weigh
 ing of Mail Matter of All Classes.
 Samples of postal scales designed to facilitate the weighing of mail matter of all classes are being issued to post series of small automatic weights, and when letters or small packages are placed on the scale, the pointer instantly and without vibration, indicates the weight on which postage must be paid, always including the fractional part of a unit as full unit.
 Thus, when the unit is one ounce, any parcel weighing one ounce or less will bring the pointer to the one ounce mark; more than one and not more than two ounces, to the two ounce mark, and so on. The and pound scale requires no poise weight, the automatic weight balancing the entire capacity of scale. If they work as recommended they will be introduced in the postal service.

 In "Herminle," as performed by tho Redmund Barry company, at the Lee avenue academy, Brooklyn, the Barry drop" continues as novel and interest ing feature. It consists of specially prepared curtain, where stereoptican views depicting incidents relating to the play are shown. This not only tends to amuse the audience and pleasantly pass the time between the acts, but it helps to better understanding of the story of the play. The pictures are all we'll executed, one in particular, showing the duel between two of the principals of the drama, in which the action is so natural that an encore is scored for that particular "plate" at each performance World.

Services in the Roman Catholic and Episcopal Churches.

Services In the Roman Catholic and
 Episcopal Churches.
 To-day being the feast of All Saints, masses were celebrated in all the Catho- lie churches. Each of the three services was largely attended. At St Patrick's s church vespers will be sung at 7:30 o'clock this evening.
 The attendance at St John's at 10 o'clock was small, "the people being too busy" said Dr Rowland, the rector, "to attend a week day service" Mention was made by him ot several of the prominent members who have died since last All Saints day.
 This afternoon at o'clock, Trinity church holds its celebration, that hour being the most suited to the people of the congregation. The rector, Rev MT Micou, will make an address, referring in detail to each of the many memorials which adorn the edifce. The window which has just been placed in memory of the late senior warden, R. E. Hitch cock, is on the gospel side of the altar next to that in memory of his wife, who departed this life some years ago. It is a companion window in the manner of artistic treatment. The church is al- ways crowded at this service, the day having become next to Christmas in the calendar, by the studious direction of the rector's influence.

TREES NEED SLEEP.
And Regularly Recurring D0rknes

And Regularly Recurring Darkness
 is Essential to Them.
 Observers of many of the small cities blessed with shade trees, have noticed that these trees near electric lights have been blighted by something, for the lack of some more apparent cause the trouble is ascribed to the electric lights. The local arboriculturists say that the trees need darkness as much as men need sleep. There seems to be some reason in supposing that the nearness of the electric lights is the cause of the droop- ing of the trees, for similar trees not ex- posed to any other illumination than that of the sun have not been affected in any way, and are bright and strong.

neatness and economy in their fields

their general resting place until
needed for future use, consequently,
every year a new supply has to be
