4 Genius Wife.

Millet was not indifferent to or incapable of
working from nature or of applying it to his
pictures in progress. His son has frequently
told me of his desire to make more studies
from the living model and his regret at not
being able to do so. 1t seemed to be difficult
for Millet to approach people that he wanted
to have pose for him, and this Office of asking
a peasant man or woman to sit for him always
fell upon his wife, But these sittings were
never long nor tiresome; he wanted only the
few facts of form or color which that par
ticular model could give him. For detail
or a special quality he would at times take
the greatest pains.
Madame Millet has told me of having worn
che toughest of peasant dresses about the
house and garden for weeks, that when it
pleased him her husband might call upon her
to pose for some part of picture upon which
he would be at work, and of Millet compel
ling her TO wear the same shirt for an uncom'
fortably long time; not to paint the dirt as
the early critics of Millet would have us
believe, but that the rough linen should sim
plify its folds and take the form of the body,
that he might give fresher and stronger
accent to those qualities he so loved-the gar
ment becoming, as it were, part of the
body, and expressing, as he has said even
more than the nude, the larger and more
simple forms of nature-Wyatt Eaton in

The Republic of San NIayino.

The republic of San Marine is curiosity
in itself 1t was formed in the Sixth century,
and at first was a mere hermitage established
by Dalmatian monk, who gave his name to
it. 1t is situated on mountain near Rimini,
and no one should pass Rimini without going
to see it. 1t has always been respected by
every government that has governed that
part of Italy. 1t has laws of its own having
a state council, formed of sixty members,
twenty of which are noblemen, twenty trades
men and twenty agriculturists. They are
appointed for life.
The executive is represented by two captain
regents, who are changed every six months.
The administration of justice is confded to
magistrate, appointed every three years. The
army consists of $50 men and officers, and it
possesses four cannon, which were presented
to the republic by Napoleon Bonaparte in
1877. There is no printing office in San
Marine, consequently no newspaper. The
government will not allow any, for fear OF
offending other states and thus placing it in
danger. Foreigners are allowed 70 visit the
republic, but not to remain in it longer than
week.-LoEdon Globe,

4 Compulsory Savings Bank.

A resident of this city, with fine knowl-
edge of the weakness of human nature has
devised and put on the market a registering
savings bank which holds its deposits until
they reach stipulated amount. The bank is
shaped like a Saratoga trunk. Three styles
are made, one for cents, another for half
dimes, and third for dimes Each, after the
first coin is deposited, is locked until the hun
dredth coin is pushed through the slot, and as
each coin enters it registers upon dial A
man who buys a dime bank must put 100
dimes into it if he wants to open it, and a
nickel bank can be opened only when it con-
tains S.. The banks are strongly made Of
nickel plated cast iron, and the locking device
is unpickable, because after it is locked the
keyhole is taken indoors. Nothing but the
right amount of coins will open it, and when
the hundredth coin enters the door opens auto

Inc Large.r coral Reef.

The largest coral reef in the world is the
Australian Barrier reef, on the northeast
coast Of that continent, which extends about
LOO miles. Its average distance from the
land is twenty to thirty miles, but in some
points it is fifty to ninety miles distant, The
great arm of the sea thus included is ten TO
twenty-five fathoms deep, with a sandy bot
som: but toward the southern end, where the
reef is furthest from the shore, the depth
gradually increases to forty, and in some
parts to more than sixty fathoms reef on

Professor Henry once remarked TO her that
there was no question in his mind that PRO

of the present signal service of the United
States, his Theory of Storms having led the
wayto its establishment and present success"

cal bureau of the war department when he
was at its head

The Reason Why They Can Be Bought for
So Much Less Than Formerly.
"Gold watches are so common nowadays
them as they did a few years ago." said
Fulton street jeweler the other day. 1.-THE
individual who could sport gold watch and
chain a dozen years ago was considered a
person of wealth and property. But he isn't
now. Why, you will find gold watches in the
pockets of our street car conductors, and have
even known them to wear handsome diamond
rings. Did you ever notice the ostentatious
manner in which young man handles his
first gold watchl 1t is rather amusing.
Usually he carries it in a channels leather
pouch, and is very careful not to breathe on
it or touch the case with his fingers. He con-
suits it every fifteen minutes for the first
month, but he soon tires of it, and then con-
siders it a horrible bore to be asked for the
time. The demand for gold watches was
never greater than it is today Watch COM
panies are kept very busy filling orders, and
we retail jewellers do a good business in this
line"
why is it that watches are SO much cheaper
now than few years ago"
well, for one thing, the watch movements
are great deal cheaper. Gold is just exactly
the same price per pennyweight. The re-
duction in price is confined " the movements.
The watch movements Of the standard Amer
lean make are very cheap. Those il common
use in gold watches of the cheapest grade are
from $40 to $40 each, and some of the best
movements are worth at wholesale 325 or $50
There is, however, high priced fine Ameri-
can movement which may cost you say So,
but they are not put in ordinary cases. a
watch that you paid $tO0 for few years ago
you can get today for $50, and this $50 watch
will have $40 or SIS movement in it. For
$50 you should get movement cased in solid
l4-carat gold, weighing from 45 to so penny
weights The purchaser will get more service
out of l4-carat case than he will out of an
lS-carat.S
"How can dealers offer the public solid gold
watches for $50 and 1851"
They are not solid by any means. There
are some unprincipled makers who will mark
a case of 10 carat outside and carat in
side IA carat, and 10 and IA carat would
be marked Is carat There is no law
in America to prevent this. The case is
made of a composition which holds gold
plating finely. This composition is some
times very heavily plated, and will wear
for several years without showing the base
metal There is little difficulty in disposing
of them as solid gold cases, and in this way
the price is surprisingly low. There is more
opportunity for deception in the movement
and case of a watch than in almost any other
article. The amount of money invested in
watch offers much inducement to expert
ment. The case manufacturer is not neceS-
sarily Obliged to know much about the move
ment of watch. He makes his cases to fit
the standard American sizes of movements,
and most makers produce a uniform size. ~

Most women naturally look forward to
matrimony as their proper sphere in life but
fair, rosy face, bright eyes, and a healthy,
weli-developed form, are the best passports
to a happy marriage. All those wasting dis

ties peculiar to their sex, destroy beauty

most valued by Victoria Is known 10 be the
ring placed on her finger by Albert on their
wedding day. There is story told of Rus
sian prince who, on being searched previous
to a life long exile in Siberia, begged to be al
lowed to retain plain gold ring which kept
alive the memory of happy marriage. And
the story goes, l am glad to say, that he
went TO the mines with the treasure next to
his heart.
PosY AND MOTTO RINGS
Posy rings came into vogue with the Six
tenth century. These were motto rings, and
they form one of the most interesting chap
tiers of ring lore 1t is said that the famous
ring which Essex sent to Queen Elizabeth by
the Countess of Nottingham, but which the
willful woman did not deliver until after tho
dukes death, was a posy. These rings were
common between lovers and friends all over
Europe. They bore rhyming notices and af-
fectionate sentiment, and the lady without
posy ring was looked upon as forlorn and
with but few hopes of marriage ahead.
Shakespeare knew the posy ring, for in the
Merchant of Venice" he makes Gratiano and
Nerissa say:
Gratiano-About hoop Of gold, paltry ring,
That she did give me, whose posy was,
For all the world like cutters poetry
Upon a knife, Love me- love me not"
Nerissa-What talk you of the posy, or the value;
You swore to me when did give It you,
That you would wear it till your hour
of death
Some of the notices OF tie old posy rings
are beautifully quaint The list of them is
entirely too long to be en- bodied in this arti
Gle, but cannot refrain from giving a few:
''In thee my choice, l do rejoice"
MAY God above increase our love"
"Not two but one till life is done"
my heart and | until die"
"As gold is pure, so love is sure"
LAS long as life your loving wife"
love is sure where faith is pure"
Love is heaven, and heaven is love"
"Not for day, but, love, for aye"
when this you see, then think of me-"
lin gold I'm cast to bind two fast"
"My heart is thine, true love of mine. 1T,
