His Boots Are Number 16.

Mr.. Arnold, of Thompson, is only
sixteen years old, but he is over six
feet tall and his feet are famous, writes
a Connecticut correspondent. They are
bigger than any other feet in Windham
County, and perhaps in the New En-
gland States. Young Thompson step
ped into Eli Tracy's shoe shop at Cen
trail Village the other day and said he
him a pair of boots.
All right" said Eli, lust put your
foot on this measure, and III get your
size"
Thompson tried to do as he had been
hidden but found il impossible to com
ply with the request Although Tracy
slipped the marker out to the Jump
ing off place on the measure, there was
not nearly room enough to accommo.
date the young mans extraordinary
foot.
well" said he looking up aghast,
II never You beat the record. What
size boot do YOU usually wear?"
"Oh, generally can get on sixteens,"
replied the youth, with ingenious COM
placency, "but latterly they've pinched
my feet some, aud ! guess I'll take
size or two larger this time.
Tracy then made an approximate es-
innate of the big foot, and found that
ii cal ed for n boot one inch and half
longer than his measure. Il can't fill
the bill for you," said he, "for you take
boot bigger than any last that is
made.
So young Thompson had to go away
without hope, and he is in n dilemma.
The prospect is that he will have to go
unshod during the remainder of his
life unless he can persuade some
liberal soled contractor to make last
especially for his use, which will DO
expensive. Thompson is not the only
six-footer and big footer in his family.

Eeeniny PANTS i'm Winter.

Doors opening into the room In which
you keep flowers should have strips of
listing tackled about them in such n
way as TO close all cracks through
which the wind can enter. a strong
wind will blow more cold into room
in moderate weather than will be likely
to penetrate in still nights when the
thermometer is down TO zero. There
fore he sure to fortify against the adj
mission of air through these inlets. 1t
is n good plan to take a day for doing
this work, and begin at one corner of
the room, and go over it thoroughly,
finishing up each part as you go along.
BY systematiZing the work in this way,
You are sure to have it well done; but
if You stop q crack here and there, and
now and then, as 1t happens to be dis
covered you will be pretty sure TO
have poor Job of it. taken as a whole.
If your plants should freeze. as soon
as YOU discover what has been done put
them in a dark room, or the cellar
where the temperature is but little
above freezing, and sprinkle, or rather
shower them with cold water. In most
cases, such plants as Additions, Ger
anlums, and others of similar charac
ter can, if taken in time, before al
lowed TO thaw, be saved. and L have
had quite tender plants come through
the ordeal with comparatively little in
jury. The frost must be extracted
gradually, and with the application of
as little heat as possible. Keep thom
away from the light and warmth for
two or three days. If the tops wilt
after the frost has been extracted YOU
may feel sure that the wilted portion
cannot be saved, so cut it off at once,
and be sure to cut below that part
which appears affected by the frost.
If some of the frosted part is left on,
very often decay sets in which extends
to the stalks below. Should the whole
top seem killed, it does not follow that
the roots have not vitality enough left
to send up new shoots, so DO not throw
them out till you have given them
trial.-Eben T.. Rertord, in Ladies'

The Mistake.

Would-be contributor (to editor)-
Now, sir, / have no hesitancy in pro-
nouncing this the best, the ripest pro-
duction of my pen. l wish you would
read it at once, sir, for | know that it
will meet with your highest approba
ton.
Editor-Tll get to it as soon as L
can.
Contrlbutor-Read it now, sir. In
deed, will stay right here until you
do read it. / know it is a great story,
and let me tell you that l carried it
in my head ten years before l wrote it.
Now, read it. Editor reads it, What
do you think of it? Don't hesitate to
point out a mistake, sir.
Editor-You say you carried it in
your head ten years?
Contributor-Yes. Do you find any
mistakes?
Editor-One.
Contributor serious one?
Editor-Very.
Contributor-What is it
Editor-The fact that you did not
continue to carry the story in your
head.-Arkansdl Traveller.

Artistic Furnishings.

Zone of the most essential points Ia
furnishing" remarked careful house
keeper, sis to see that YOU get good
carpets-carpets that will wear well
and that will not soon go out of style.
This, of course, is on the supposltion
that YOU do not propose TO change your
carpets with every slight change of
fashion, but may desire to practiee
perfectly comfortable economy. Good
wearing quality and good taste DO not
necessarily mean that the carpet must
be expensive. In choosing, take subdued
colors neither extremely light nor
dark-and small patterns are best In
the long run. Then come the curtains,
which are very important, because YOU
have to think not only of interior but
also of exterior effects. When curtains
and carpets are bought, if your means
are moderate, you can then buy your
furniture slowly, adding to it carefully,
redressing and covering old furniture.
thus economizing as much as you
please"
Tapestries and ingrains seem to be
the best carpets for people of moder-
ate means; and now that all grades of
them are so beautiful III design and
colorings, the housekeeper of refined
taste, though not wealthy, can easily
CRAFTY them in this direction.
Among curtains, especially among
the richer fabrics, there is great deal
of brocade, and the flowers are quite
as apt to be overshot as woven into the
goods. Old roses and pink tints are
much used this season, and they com
bine finely with grays and browns. In
colors there is nothing better for wear
and good general effect than Madras.
1t comes forth this season as popular
as ever, and some new grades have
been added. One handsome Madras
set was silk striped, with dash of tin
sci. 1t was very heavily fringed, which
added much to its beauty.
Muslin curtains are becoming more
and more popular. Irish point excel,
too, as they have a rich appearance
even when not costly. Among white
curtains Irish point and Nottingham
lace are the most satisfactory, unless
one pays a very high price. York

The Worlds PeOple.
FRANKFORT, Ind.

There are statisticians in several
countries, the best known of whom is
the learned German, Herr Schem, who
endeavor to present from time TO time
statistics of the population of the en-
tire world. 1nasmuch as many popu-
lous countries have no census, and of
ten nothing like a census, these world
statisticians can only put together, as
to these countries, the best attainable
guesses.
Nevertheless, they probably make q
tolerably near estimate of the popula-
tion of the entire world, which they
put at twelve hundred million. The
number of men is supposed to be some
what smaller than the number of
women.
The number of deaths in the entire
world each year is placed at about
thirty-five and quarter million, which
would make nearly one hundred thou
sand day, four thousand an hour, and
siXty-seven a minute.
On the other hand, there are it is
estimated, thirty-six and three-quarters
million persons born every year, which
would make more than one hundred
thousand per day, and seventy per
minute.
The average duration of life, in the
world as a whole, is thirty eight years.
One-quarter of the people upon the
earth die before reaching the seven
teenth year. About six of each one
thousand persons born reach the age
of seventy-fve years.
Married people live to a greater age
than the unmarried; temperate peo-
pie and workingmen live longer than
excessive eaters and the idolent; and
the people of civilized nations outlive
the savage races. Youths Compdn-
