Sham Antiquities in Paris.

There is great passion NOWADAYS
for antique articles, and it has given
birth to q world of sham ANTIQUITIES.
An army of handicraftsmen are busily
engaged in the manufacture of these
wares, which are palmed off on confid-
ing people as being 200 or 800 years
old, and dated from any desired land
mark in history. Old chairs, old tables,
old silver, old jewelry and old any
thing, even if made last week, have
great value in the eyes OF many per-
sons satisfied with antiquity in appear
ance. Worm-eaten furniture is now
one of the RACES. This stuff is easily
produced with aid of bird shot, which
is fired into it. Old houses, torn down,
furnish worm-eaten timber, which is
turned to good account in fabricating
old sets of furniture. Old door KEYS,
medieval bellows, gilt fambeaux in
Louis XIV. style, warming pans and
brass Tenders of the fourteenth cent
ury, candelabras, and even old snuff
ers, find purchasers as fast as these
antique wares can be made by skillful
artlzans in out of the way places OF
the gay capital. O!d coins and Re-
gency clocks are cast by the ton every
day in Paris, but they are very scarce
and bring fabulous prices. -Jeweler's

The Story Of Pygmalion.

That Pygmalion, best known to
classical and other readers, is the one
of whom Ovid has sung. He resided
on the Island of Cyprus and was
statuary. He became what would be
commonly called woman-hater, ow-
ing, it is tabled, to his having been a
witness of the revels of the females Of
A'nathus, city of great antiquity on
the southern side of the island, and
celebrated as the favorite residence of
Venus. Pygmalion resolved never to
wed, and the affection he had denied
to the fair sex he gave generously to
the works of art which his genius had
created He finally became euamored
of a beautiful statue of ivory which he
had made, and at his earnest request,
as the legend runs, the goddess of
beauty yivified this statue, and he
made this creation his wife.-Chicago
