She Painted Her Lips.

A very funny incident happened at
a reception where bright woman,
who was out for the first time after q
long illness, was the victim. Just be-
fore she left home some one said that
she had better put some coloi on her
lips, as they looked perfectly blue. A
serpent in the shape of charming
girl offered her mixture-one of car
mine and glycerine-which, if any is
to be used, is most desirable; and she
carefully painted the invalid's mouth,
putting the most color in the center,
to give it the desired rosebud effect.
The newly painted was warned that
she could eat or drink anything cold,
but of anything hot she was to beware.
Remembering this, she declined going
into the supper-room, and was the
center of group of men, and having
the largest kind of time, when an
imp of darkness in the form of foot
man came along with a tray ON which
were cups of coffee and glasses of
punch. Without thought the layde
faire took a cup of the coffee; she
slipped it slowly, and then, horror of
horrors, made bad worse by wiping her
mouth on a tiny napkin which had
been given her. She saw surprise on
the faces of some of the men. One
glance at the damask in her hand told
her what was the matter, and with
providential presence of min she put
it up to her lips again, leaned on the
man nearest to her, whispered in
muffied tones that she was ill and
must go home. Out of the drawing
room, she quickly got on her wraps,
and when she was helped to her car
riage the man who had been her stand
by could not resist telling her that he
was sure she must be ill, because her
lips had grown so pale. However,
the men were good fellows, and they
never told of her, but she swore by
every one of the Buddhist gods and
all of the Chinese devils that she'd
submit to green lips before she'd get
into such d fix again.

Prof. Tonry says it is verv difficult

from natural combinations. although
thorough ventilation and cleanliness in
private houses and business establish

ing the danger. The phenomenon is
common to all seasons, although tenn
perature of 70 or so degrees, which is
high enough for fermentation. is most
favorable to it.
An accumulation of infammable ma

She Looked Distinguished.

Newsboys naturally develop a quick
ness at reading faces as we'll as free
dom in asking and answering questions.
One of this class was peddling his
wares in railway train, and in pass
ing back and forth was struck with the
appearance of woman She looked
distinguished, and as he dumped his
paper-covered novels into the laps OF
the other passengers, he passed her
by.
At last his curiosity got the better
of all other considerations. He found
among his books one by Mrs. Stowe,
and on his next trip he proffered it to
the very dignified lady, but she de-
clined it.
Excuse me" said the boy, "but amt
you Mrs. Stowe?"
The stranger shook her head and dis
claimed the compliment The boy
went down the aisle, but on his return
he stopped again.
"Then perhaps you're Mrs. Stanton ?'
The woman smiled, and again shook
her head. But the newsboy was not to
be baffied.
Would you mind telling me who you
are, maam ?"
1t is not likely that the fellow was
much the wiser when the woman gave
her name as Maria Mitchell. Probably
he had never heard of our famous as
tronomer, but he was equal to the
emergency.
"Well, L knew you was somebody p
he answered, triumphantly.

1t is mistake to let shrubs go with
out attention during the summer, and
growing season. Then it is that they
should be brought into good shape, for,
by Watching them as growth IS made,
one can see where pruning and train
ing is required, and the necessary work
can be done at just the time when 1t
will do the most good, for shrubs are
more tractable while forming branches
than they are afterward. Ii you allow
n shrub to grow to suit itself all sum
mer, and attempt to rectify what you
consider its mistake in fall, you will
find that great deal of summer
growth may have to be removed to
secure anything like symmetrical shape,
and of course these surplus branches
indicate good deal of summer growth
which has been wasted: so much of
the vitality of the plant as was taken
toproduce them has been expended use
lessly; proper attention at the proper
time would have thrown this energy
into the shrub.
But We must take things as we find
them, and fall finds most shrubs in
need of judicious pruning, if we
would have them take on shapely
form. Therefore when getting ready
to give them the winter protection,
which most of them require to greater
or lesser extent, give them good
pruning, and make them symmetrical,
1t is well to do this before the coming
of cold weather, so that the fresh cuts
on the limbs will have little chance
to heal or at least dry over before they
are laid down and covered. .-Eben d.

considered unapproacnabIe, does MOI
equal the grander opera house of the
Paris of America. Imagine a beauti-
fully wrought ceiling of solid gold.
studded with a thousand electric
lights a stage where thousand men
can drill; imagine scores of boxes, the
architecture of which has never been
egualed, and four balconies, back of
whose graceful curves multitude may
be seated; a wilderness of marble,
bronze, mahogany and delicate cary
lngs; palace worthy of Caesar in the
day OF Rome's greatest splendor.
What did it all cost ?"
Between three and four million
dollars" said Mr.. Adams.
The Auditorium Building is a struct-
ure as daring in execution as it was in
conception. The men who can design,
undertake and carry out such q great
enterprise as this are creators, and
serve for much more than their own
time. Only Chicago, with its bound
less daring, could have undertaken such
an extraordinary venture as this vast
Auditorium mighty and majestic
building covering nearly two acres of
Brounu, ahu rearing lts lofty proper
tions, as contemplated by its noble
tower, 266 feet above the earth. II
lifts itself, in it's noble site on the shore
of Lake Michigan, in such dignity and
greatness as no other private building
in the new world can approach. The
whole structure is victory of archi-
lecture, and the Congress street facade
is over 800 feet long, and is hardly sur
passed by the grandeur and eloquence
of expression of the noted Capitol it.

to this awful height. The great me-
tropolis is seen as from a mountain
top. The lake front, with its mile of
grass plats and winding paths, looks
like a playground; Michigan boule-.
ward, streamer of tape on which are
hundreds of toy horses; the break
water, mile and half away, seems
almost at your feet; and the new
water-works crib, four miles away, APP
pears but stones throw distant. What
is that line of white away out on the.
lake? The Michigan shore, sixty miles
off. Evanston, South Chicago, and
Michigan City are in view. To the
west the scene is equally wonderful.
but not so clear. OUT OF dense cloud
of smoke hundreds of buildings reach
up in the vain hope of catching 3
breath of pure air. Over all hangs the
huge smutty bank of dun-colored
clouds, its volume constantly increased
by the smoke from numberless stacks

"And what do you want of the Gov

Il want Bill pardoned out, in course
but I'm kinder frustrated about how to
approach Guvner Francis. If he's
down on corners and likes cider and
carries a revolver strapped to him, I'm
all right; but if he's sweet on edeca-
shun, down on pistols, and don't keer
cent for apple-juice when he kin git
lager, then Bill can prepare to roost
behind them bars for the next three
yeers."
He saw the Governor. Bill will

BATTLEFIELD JUNK.
Virginia Farmers Finding 1t Source OF
Considerable Revenue.


Considerable Revenue.
A quarter of century has elapsed
since the war, yet many of the farmers
of Virginia are still realizing from
Yankee lead and brass quite revenue,
says an Alexandria paper. 1t is the
children of these farmers living near
est the great battlefields that bring to
light most of the buried relics of the
cruel past. Their tiny fingers, some
times in play, again with the hope Of
adding to the family Golfer, unearth
pounds of lead.
In strollng through this historical
town the writer came across a yeritable
old curiosity shop down by the wharf.
1t IS kept by an old junk-dealer, who,
yielding to my desire for a glimpse at
the latest curiosity, brought to light a
big box which had just arrived from
the country that morning. There, in
reckless confusion, were bullets, mus
ket balls, old pieces of brass, epaulets,
sword hilts, buckles and buttons, all
battered and bruised and corroded by
the earth in which they had been bur-
led for so many years. This box, the
dealer said would weigh about $50
pounds, and was but one of many that
he was constantly receiving.
From the midst of the debris but
ton was tished out upon which was
inscribed the arms of Vermont Free
dom and Unity, showing that it had
belonged to some member of the first
militia that was mustered into service,
as the troops were afterward uniformed
by the United States. These war relics
come from the battlefelds of Manassas,
Culpeper, Fredericksburg, and the
Valley of Virginia, and are sold simply
for their value in old lead and brass.
Occasionally an invoice of shells az
rives, which throws the downtown
inhabitants into a state of consterna-
ton. Not so long ago quite batch
of these wickedlooking things were
hustled out of town by command OF
the Mayor.
If the farmers were wise they would
preserve the most interesting of these
mementos, for there will no doubt
come time when even the most insig-
nificant will have its value
