DExTEROUS DANCERS.
sinuous Siamese Girls Who Pick On
straws with Their Eyelids.

straws with Their Eyelids.
Poised on tiptoe, bending their arms
and limbs back as far as they will
reach and picking up bits of straw
with their eyelids, the dancing girls
OF Ba gkok are always exercising in
the royal gymnasium. The new vol
ume in the zigzag, series, Journeys
in the Antipodes," gives very
graphic description of the wonderful
physical training of these girls, whose
ages vary from 5 to 20 years. The
curious and subtle feat of picking up
a bit of straw with the eyelids can be
learned only by the youngest of them,
who are made to practice it in order
to render them flexible in every part
of the body.
There are two long rows of benches,
one a little higher than the other. On
the lower is a row of little girls, and
on the upper bench are laid fine, pol
ished bits of straw. At the sound Of
the drum the little girls all together
bend back the head and neck until
they touch the bits of straw, which,
with wonderful dexterity, they secure
between the corners of the eyelids.
The cup dance is the most graceful
and poetic of their dances. A row of
young women, with tier of cups on
their heads, take their places in the
center of the gymnasium. A burst of
joyous music follows. On hearing
this they simultaneously, with mill
tary precision, kneel down, fold their
hands and bow their heads until their
fOrahnoH n ,,n1cf ta,,ol tIo Il i
marble floor, keeping the cups steadily
on their heads by some marvellous
jerk of the neck; then, suddenly
springing to their feet, they describe a
succession of rapid and intricate cir
Giles, keeping time to the music with
their arms, head and feet.
Next follows a miracle of art such
as may be found only among people
OF the highest physical training. The
music swells into rapturous tumult.
The dancers raise their delicate feet,
curve their arms and fingers in SEEM
ing impossible textures, sway to and
fro like withes of willow, agitate all
the musles of the body like the flutter
OF leaves in soft evening breeze, but
still keep the tier of cups on their
heads. At other times cup full of
some liquid is placed on the floor in
the center Of the hall. A girl will
spring to her feet and dance about it
in round wild eddies, and, suddenly
laying herself down, keeping her arms
folded tight on her breast, will take up
the cup with her lips and drain the
liquid without spilling drop.-New
York Star.

Explosive Potash Tablets.

Engineer Fosburg, of the Chateau
gay road, had a peculiar experience
Wednesday. He had a number of
chlorate of potash lozenges in his vest
pocket, and these exploded while he
was at Lyon Mountain, tearing away
and burning his vest and trousers on
one side down to the knee, and quite
severely burning one of his hands. Mr..
Fosburg contends that he had no
matches in his pocket, and cannot ac-
count for the explosion. However
that may be, the accident will serve as
warning to those who habitually
carry these tablets loosely in their
pockets under the impression that they
were non-explosive. -Plattsburg On.

Experience and daily observation,
however, prove that the love of the
peanut is not confined solely to the
small boy Its fascination has a
broader sweep. Fashion may taboo
it at the table, but it takes sweet re-
venge in all sorts of other places and
upon all sorts of humanity. Its will
ness, too. is Machiavellian. No other
nut has half its cunning, and none
other can boast the half its power of
insinuation. Its omnipresence is un-
escapable. Every street corner fumes
with its roasted fragrance, at five cents
quart, measured out by the leather
colored merchant who has left his
home beneath the sunny skies of Italy
to set his trap for fortune in our ia
vored land, temptingly baited with
peanuts and pink lemonade. Prudence
may take sniff at the bait and pass
on. Who hesitates is lost. One nib
ble-one tiny end of the parched kerr
mel in contact with his palate and
good-by to all his disdain for the pea
nut The trap springs and sends him
munching down the street with q
quart dangling in his coat tail pocket.

Edison Explains Friction,

A gentleman who thought he knew
a thing or two about electricity, and
was doing his best to convince Edison
that he did, advanced a theory about
how electricity was produced. "Oh,
fudge" said Edison. do you want
to know how electricity is produced
Why, by friction of course, 1t flies
off wheel as it goes round. What
makes it fly off Why, the resistance
of the air. All the electricity in the
air is caused by friction produced by
the atmosphere as the earth turns
round. When you get higher up
there is no electricity, because there is
no friction. "-Pittsburg Times.

A Ghost Tolled the Bells.

Before the earthquake shook it down,
the old guard house or police station
was just across the street, in front of
the church Every night for years an
old policeman, who had grown old
and dccrepit in the service of his
country and lastly of his city, kept
watch at the door. He had seen many
strange sights, and he always said that
the strangest he had ever seen was the
dead man ringing the chimes from the
belfry Of old St Michael's. He had
seen the shrouded figure, time and
again, climb up to the bells, and, not
touching the ropes, which had been
pulled SO often by living hands, swing
the heavy iron tongues against the
sides of the bells and clash out fear
full melody which thrilled while it
Mortified the listener.
He would tell you, if you cared to
listen to his story, how the ghost had
been murdered, for in its normal state
it had been murdered by the thrust of
an Italian stiletto in Elliot street. The
spirit was Ito walk the earth, revisit
the glimpses Of the MOON" ring the
old chimes, and do other horrible
things, until the murderer was cap
tured
A few minutes before midnight the
old Waterman would see this spectral
chimer enter the church doors, for
getting to open them, swiftly and in
ghostly way glide up the steps of the
winding stair, pause under the bells
by the ropes where Gladsden rings
them, pass swiftly on without touch
ing them, climb on into the gloomy
belfry and stop beneath the open
mouths of the bells. They yawned
down upon it, as if striving to swallow
up the restless spirit. Suddenly, as if
the inspiration had come, the shrouded
hand would move silently and rapidly
from iron tongue to iron tongue, and
the wild eldritch music would swell
out upon the midnight air.-Atlanta

A Years Cotton Cron.

Seeing a notice in the papers few
days ago that Governor Gordon would
raise no cotton this year ON his farm
the thought occurred to me to ask the
following questions
1. How would it affect the COM
merce of the world if the farmers and
planters of the south would hold con-
vention and pledge themselves not to
raise any cotton for one year, but in
stead to raise wheat, corn, oats and
other cereals, potatoes, onions, turnips,
hogs, poultry, etc., and whatever
would best suit the soil and climate of
the section interested
2. Would such movement be
eventually beneficial or injurious to
the cotton states2-Letter to Atlanta
Constitution.

There are no laundrymen in China.
No linen is worn there. The rich use
silk and wooden undergarments, and
the poor wear wooden or cotton. AS
starching and ironing are unknown,
the female servants do all the laundry
work. The reason of the great num-
Der of laundrymen here is that when
the Union Pacific railroad threw hun
dreds of Cinnamon out of employment
they cast about for something to do,
and as there was great demand for
washerwomen, and a scant supply of
them in the west, the Monaghan
turned his attention to her trade. He
learned it SO quickly and SO well that
he stuck to it, and made so much
money that the calling soon became
popular. Gradually the laundrymen
came east, and no city, and now few
villages of any size in the whole coun-
try, are without a Chinese laundry"

Copper Becoming Fashionable.

Copper is coming into fashion.
What do l mean2 Well, look at this
lot of canes and umbrellas that | have
just imported. You will notice that
each one of them has a piece of ordi-
nary copper wire around the handle.
Gold and silver has become so com
mon as heads for these articles that
people demand something new for a
change, and you see the result before
you. Just now great simplicity is af-
fected in this respect, but | haven't
the slightest doubt that when this
metal becomes popular, as believe it
will, we shall see very elaborate per-
sonal ornaments made of it. Indeed,
| have often wondered why copper
was not more generally used as a ma
terial for ornaments. Its peculiar
color harmonizes perfectly with dark
materials and compilations, and it is
comparatively free from oxidation.
Barbarousl Not bit of it, True, the
aborigines make use of copper to
adorn their persons, and in that they
show excellent judgment. In matters
of taste we might frequently take les
sons from the savages - jewelers.

The Wrong Scent.

A prominent resident at Chaplin,
Conn, who is extravagantly fond Of
fox hunting, started out on a bitter
cold day, and, arriving at the edge Of
the woods containing the coveted
game, he started his hound on the
trail. The faithful hound caught the
scent Immediately and bounded away,
and in few moments was lost from
sight. The owner waited patiently un-
til, utterly benumbed by the cold, he
crept back to his wagon, where he
found the noble hound snugly en-
sconced beneath the buffalo robe, fast
asleep.-Chicago Herald.

Black Pepper.

The two kinds of black pepper
known to this country come from
Sumatra and Singapore. Very little
pepper is busted before it is ground,
Notwithstanding the claims of spice
grinders. The shell or skin on good
pepper contains the essential constitu-
ents of the spice much more than the
inside or kernel, which when free
from the shell produces white, not black
pepper; but the heavy grains with
the shell on, make the best pepper.
The Singapore pepper which is the
best, Is separated into heavy and light
grains and the better quality-the
heavy-is mostly sold whole. while
the light grains are ground 1t is bet
ter for the housekeeper to buy whole
pepper and grind it herself. Good
Housekeeping.

FOX HATED THE WOMEN.
Curious Career of the British Envoy 4
be Uit-sf uarrisnnss

curious Career OF the British Envoy In
the First Harrison's Day.
The foreign legations of the first
Gen. Harrisons period entertained
frequently-dinners and evening par
ties being the style of the day. The
notable exception was in the English
legation. Mr. Fox succeeded Sir
Charles Vaughn, and the contrast be-
tween the two ministers was striking.
The one made the legation frequent
scene of splendid hospitality; this
other, recluse, who barred the doors
against all women and nearly all men.
His dinners were confined to the Off
cial ranks, and his reason for not in
Guiding ladies was that "he would
have to shake hands with women"
He was the nephew of the celebrated
Charles James Fox, embalmed in his
tory, and was said to be very able
man. His appearance was remarkable
very thin, but refined in features
He generally appeared on the avenue
after o'clock-always alone. Nan
keen trousers, with straps, then the
prevailing style, vest of the same, and
blue coat with large velvet collar,
which had been built, legend said,
in Rio Janeiro while he was British
minister in South America; a shirt
collar that dwarfed Spinola's coming
up above his ears, and a large hat,
many sizes too big, and large green
silk umbrella. One hand was invari-
ably in his pocket, and he moved
along at a smart walk, neither seeing
nor speaking to any one.
He never retired until or 4 o'clock
and never got up until nearly the
same hour next day. Some one met
him at 6 o'clock in the evening in the
Capitol grounds and invited him to
dine with them. He thanked him,
but said his people would be waiting
breakfast for him when he got home"
AT a diplomatic funeral-which
must have disturbed his slumbers for
it was held in the morning-he said to
the wife of the Spanish minister:
How queer we all look by daylight.
have never seen any of them except
by candle light"
Lord Bacon, writing from Naples,
says 81 met Henry Fox the other
day, who has been dreadfully i'll, and,
as he says, so changed that his oldest
creditor would not know him."
Mr. Fox died from an overdose of
morphine, in 1916, at Washington.
Many stories were told of the gam
bling that went on in his house. The
most celebrated gambler of the day,
named Townley, won largely of him,
1t was said.-New York Telegram.

Evils of Public Drinking Fountains.

l am opposed to the erection of any
more public drinking fountains, on
the ground that they propagate dis
eases among horses. 1t may not be
generally known, but it is fact,
nevertheless, that at least l, 500 cases
of CHAMBERS, which recently existed in
this city, can be traced directly to
public drinking fountains. The dis
ease was introduced into the city not
long since by some Illinois horses.
These horses were watered at certain

quented by hundreds of horses every
day. The result was that the disease
was scattered broadcast over the city,
and it now exists in alarming proper

Strength of Walls.

1t is found that walls laid up of
good, hard burned bricks, in mortar
composed of good lime and sharp
sand, will resist a pressure of 1900
pounds per square inch, or ZIG, 200
pounds per square foot, at which fig
ure it would require 1,60O feet height
Of twelve inch wall to crush the bot
tom courses, allowing 1875 pounds as
the weight of each cubic foot 1t also
appears from accurate calculations
and measurements that walls laid up
in the same quality of brick and NOR
tar, with one-third quantity of Port
land cement added to the same, are
capable of resisting some $500 pounds
per square inch or $50, 900 pounds per
square foot; this would require a
height of wall 200 feet to crush the
bottom bricks. -Builder and Wood

American Pork.

Hogs grown in this country are fed
SO largely on corn that American pork
has acquired distinctive character as
being harder and containing more lard
than that Of other lands. 1t is not a
bad repute. This pork goes farther
than it otherwise would, and if it is
less digestible than that containing
more lean, it is mainly eaten by those
who work hard and who Ike best that
food which stands by then, the long

An Important Opinion.

Judge Sheldon, of St. Louis, has
handed down an opinion in which he
holds that where a man insures his
life for the benefit of his wife and then
survives her, the policy will inure to
the benefit of the children independ-
emily OF the insured's creditors. The
law has long been that where a policy
is taken out for the benefit of any
married woman, it would inure to her
separate use and benefit, but it is
claimed that the courts have never be-
fore decided the status of the policy if
the wife died first.-Knights Of Honor
