center of the trap two inches to
one side of the center of the hole.
the spring turned to one side and
the jaws in line with the hole. The
trap-chain must extend out in the water
and be fastened to stake small enough
to slide through the ring near the end.
All the stake should be out of sight
under water. Now set lightly in the
mud, each side of the trap, some slender
twigs, to prevent the animal from pass
ing in any other place except over the
trap. No bait is needed for that one.
Cut all alders or other brush that could
be reached and the trap and chain
wound around it, for the results would
often be feet and no bodies. Ny way
to trap them, be the water high or low,
if | can keep from one to four inches
of water over the trap, is this: The
marks Of toe-nails among the grass
roots along the bank are all that | ask
for in the way of a location. Now we
must excite the curiosity of the animals
An old axe with short handle can be
used from boat, or by one standing
in the water with rubber boots, as fresh
footprints never aid trapper. With
the axe and paddle cut channel in
the bank six inches wide and as far
back in the earth as you can easily dig,
nearly to the water line, in order to put
the bait beyond and over the trap in
this open-fronted channel, the sides of
which should be as smooth as axe and
paddle will make them, or the action
of waves on the soil may cover your
trap. Now for bait tn I will attract at
tention, when the fresh-cut earth fails.
With small hardwood stick one-fourth
inch square bore a hole through an
apple-or, better still, parsnip-and
then cut in thin slices, with the hole
near The center of each Run willow
twig through the slices and stick both
ends of the twig in the sides of the hole,
about four inches above the water. In
this way, on a favorable night, by set
ting twelve traps in the space of thirty
five rods on one side of the river,
caught twelve muskrats. Another way
is to cut out of any log having one end
out of the water place that will allow
the trap to be covered with an inch of
water and will not easily be moved by
the muskrat walking over it. Place a
handful of eel-grass on the log, out of
the water, as bait. Drive the dog on
the chain into the log to secure it 10 the
trap. With either of these methods
be sure that there is at least fifteen
inches of water in reach of the animal,
and no chance to wind up the chain.
To catch a mink run a slender willow
through the head of a fresh-caught
fish and stick the other end in the part
over the hole of muskrat, the trap
set as first described, for mink often
dine on the young muskrats. l have
caught many an old male mink in his
search for them. The simplest and
best way of skinning, stretching and
drying the minks for market and the
carcass for sable and fisher bait will
come in due season. l am after them

Embroidery for BOOk.C Covers.

Bookcover embroidery is coming
into vogue again as a pastime for
women. In old times it was nuns
work, and many fine examples of it,
some of them famous, are preserved in
the British and other museums. One
of these, the cover of a small Bible
printed in 1890, is of green velvet,
richly embroidered in seed pearls, with
a garnet in the center. The design is
broad border ornament with run
ming design, the center being a lily-like
radiating flower. The corner orna-
ments are roses and feur de HS. The
flower-stems are of gold thread. A
book presented to Queen Elizabeth by
Archbishop Parker was embroidered in
colors and gold thread, representing a
park with deer, trees and flowers.
Modern work is done on silk, satin or
velvet, either in original or copied de-
signs, appropriate to the contents of
the book or otherwise, affording I'M
limited scope for choice and skill in
design and treatment. The embroid-
cred cover is then sent to the BINDERS
along with the book upon which it is to
be placed, care of course being taken
to make the size right. The results
may be made very beautiful and de-
sirable for comfortable and boudoir
books. Good Housekeeping.

The Number of the Stars.

The total number of stars one can
see will depend largely upon the clear
ness of the atmosphere and the keen
ness of the eye. There are in the
whole celestial sphere about 5000 stars
visible to an ordinarily good eye. OF
these, however, we can never see more
than fraction at any one time, because
a half of the sphere is always below the
horizon. If we could see star in the
horizon as easily as in the zenith, a
half the whole number, or 5000, would
be visible on any clear night. But stars
near the horizon are seen through so
great thickness of atmosphere as
greatly to obscure their light, and only
the brightest ones can there be seen.
As a result of this observation, it is not
likely that more than 1900 stars can
ever be taken in at a single view by any
ordinary eye. About 1000 other stars
are so near the South Pole that they
never rise in our ATTITUDES. Hence,
out of 5000 supposed to be visible,
only 900 ever come within the range
of our vision, unless we make a journey
towards the equator. AS telescope
power is increased, we still find stars of
fainter and fainter light. But the
number can not go on increasing for
ever in the same ratio as with the
brighter magnitudes, because if it did
the whole sky would be blaze of STAR
light If telescopes with powers far
exceeding our present ones were made
they would no doubt show new stars of
the twentieth and twenty. first, ETC.,
magnitudes But it is highly probable
that the number of such successive
orders of stars would not increase in
the same ratio as is observed in the
eighth, ninth and tenth magnitudes, for
example. The enormous labor of esti-
mating the number of stars of such
ton of statistics on this question; but
this much is certain, that in special re-
gions of the sky, which have been
searchingly examined by various tele-
scopes of successfully increasing aper-
lures, the number of new stars found
is by no means in proportion to the in
creased instrumental power. If this is
found to be true elsewhere, the conclu-
sion may be that, after all, the stellar
system can be eXperimentally shown
to be of finite extent, and to contain
only finite number of stars. In the
whole sky an eye of average power will
see about 5000 stars, as have just
said. With telescope this number is
greatly increased, and the most pow
erful telescopes of modern times will
show more than 60,O00000 stars. OF
this number not one out of one hundred
has ever been catalogued at all. In all,
3l4 ,926 stars from the first to the ninth
magnitudes are contained in the north
ern sky, or about 100000 in both hemi-
spheres. All of these can be seen
with a three-inch object-glass. Pro-
lessor +. S. Holden, in the Century.

Fashionable Stationery.Cards.

The various ornamental, high. colored
stationery recently in fashion is al
ready discarded by persons of good
taste. a plainwhite, cream-white or
an English-blue paper are the only
cOlors now used. Correspondence cards
are entirely out of date. Three sizes
of paper are used by society women.
The largest is a sheet about the size of
commercial note paper for letters, which
may be folded once and fit large,
square envelope, or twice, and fit long
envelope. The next size is about
half an inch narrower and an inch
shorter. This is for notes and the
tiny billet-note is reserved eXclu-
siyely for regrets and acceptances. All
invitations are answered now in an in
formal manner on a sheet of billet.not
paper, except invitations to church
weddings which do not include also an
invitation to the reception. Visiting
cards for ladies are engraved in script
on large and nearly square cards of
heavy, unglazed cardboard. A gentle
mans card is exceedingly small and
slender of thin cardboard. The new
dinner-cards are long, slender shapes
of rough etching paper, delicately
painted with wild rose or violets, or
decorated in colored metals and often
tied with ribbon to harmonic with
the decoration.-Good Housekeeping.

Forms of SalutatiOn.

A striking salutation in the South
Sea Islands is to fling jar of water
over the head of a friend. This may
be termed rather cool reception, but
in that hot country it is probably done
with good intention. Among certain
tribes of Africa the sauter relieves the
saluted of his scant attire and dons it
himself. Certain writers credit the
origin of this custom to the ancient
practice of covering the face when in
the presence of a superior, Just as the
converse custom of Africa of uncloth-
ing ones self is interpreted as an eX-
treme form of taking off the shoes.
The custom of taking off the shoes at
meeting prevails among the Japanese.
A submissive and dramatic form of
salutation in certain parts of Africa is
where an inferior prostrates himself,
face downward and arms extended, at
the feet of his superior. The Austria
liam natives practice the singular Gus
tom, when meeting, of sticking out
their tongues at each other. The salu-
tation is seemingly ineXplicable, this
act with us being generally regarded as
expressing derision. In the Orient the
salutations by gesture vary with the
dignity of the person saluted. We may
mention that of Turkey, in which the
hand is put first to the forehead and
then to the breast, probably implying
the homage of the intellect and the
heart. Sometimes the hand is laid I'M
der the beard of the person saluted
and then the beard raised to the lips.
1t is common in Arabia Petra to put
cheek to cheek. A race known as the
Kalmucks resort to a salute very SINH
lar to that of the EsQuimauX. They,
too, rub noses, but before they reach
the same spot they sink upon their
knees and creep together, when the
salutation eliminates in an energetic
contact of the olfactory organs. Still
another salute is that in which the
Gond people pull the ears of their
friends. These may all be classed,
possibly, as mild forms of the old-tme
custom of embracing. 1t is a we'll
known fact that the desire to possess
or the sense of possession is gratifed
and intensified by the embracing.
Nose-rubbing, ear-pulling, ETC., are
evidently mild forms by which, for the
sake of politeness or Precipitation, such
desire for, or sense of, possession is
protessed. Kissing, as originally prac
ticed, evidently arose from a desire to
give rather than take. Thus it is re-
lated that in some of the South Sea
Islands they spit on their hands and
then rub the face of the compimented
person. a feeling that actions speak
louder than words probably gave rise
to the practice of salutng by gesture.
If we 60 back to the ages when words
were fewer and the language less ex-
pressive than now, we will find that
such salutations were more manifold
and more frequently INDUCED in, Civ
ing vivid representation of the feel
ings and desires. -BOStOn Herald.

ting oats on piece bordering the
stream or pond and hauling them to the
water along a well-detined path, but
wait until the first of October. The
skins will then bring much greater
prices. One word, "prime," has to
do with the results. But those "paths I"
and the eel-grass that you may find in
lunches along the banks show where
the muskrats are. Do not be in haste
to find their holes and set your traps in
them, for then you can get exits "
worth five cents each with but little
work. The trap should be set two
inches under water at the entrance, the
