Iangtry's siiver Bath.

A curious story Is told as to the ori- gin of Mrs. Langtry's silver bath. Rathmakers believe there is only one silver bath In the world. This was made some years ago for au Indian prince by London haihmaker. and he supposcs that the owner having died the silver bath came into tho market aud was bought by Mrs. tangtry X silver bath k tremendous affair. Some few wealthy people have copper baths plated with silver but the co | Is but a tritle compared with tho gcut- inc article Some wealthy people, who 20 in for luxurious bathing, ill their bathrooms with statuars, have painted the walls and the bath k fitted iuio q ease of carved oak.

 The most novel things iu baths., how ever. Is one fitted with shower bath overhead. needle spray bath at the side aud wave bath that rlshcs out at the foot. These arc in addition to the ordinary hot and cold taps; so the possessor of one of these ingenious things can have five styles of bathing. They cost about $la5.
 There are half a dozen or more diff rerent sorts of towels for bathing. Af- ter the ordinary Turkish and hueka- back towels some doctors are fond of recommending towel of rushes, made appropriately enough hy Russian peas- ants. It is hard and stitf and feels like coarse disheloth. Its use is confined to bathroom fanatics who think they are happy in abrading their skins. Then there is an elastic towel made of net. and another skin raiser called loofah This is imported from Egypt. The loofah is made of dried grass and it Is not softened by immersion ip water.

Russia the Real Danger.

The Paris correspondent of the Lon- don Daily News writes: Colonel Stoffel, whose reports before 1S70on the Prussian Army should havecured the Court of the Tuileries of it's fatu- ous confidence, is now trying to pro mote an Anglo-French alliance. To this end he has written a brochure, which is full ofsinister warnings. He says that Paris is open to invasion, and within few days march of the German hosts. The fate of France will be decided by a battle near the eastern frontier. As France and Ger many stand they are bound over to
 hostility, and this is the fault of the old Emperor and the military party
 who insisted on conditions which
 France is bound to try to break through in war, if she cannot rid her self of them by negotiations.
 Prince Bismarck was almost the only one at Nikolsburg who opposed
 any step which might aiilict last
 ing wound on Austrian pride, and it
 is not his policy ever to humle n
 beaten enemy. Heforesaw that Aus tria would be the requisite to the safety of Prussia, and for opposing the march of Prussian troops on Vii enna was called traitorv by the off cers of the royal staff, and us he him self told Col. Stoffel, snubbed and cut by the Crown Prince. At Versailles he was also desirous of treating France as if he were certain of need ing her future alliance He did not like the entrance of the German troops into Paris or the devastation of Eastern France. Col. Stoffel says ti.at Prince Bismarck groans over the consequences of Il course which he strove to prevent. Russia, is in
 his opinion, the great danger ahead. He would prefer policy of peace and civilization to a barbarous mil itary one, but with France hostile he can do nothing. The moral of the
 pamphlet is that Prince Bismarck might agree to the retroeession oi Alsace- Lorraine if in return France would help him to form n league O! the European powers against the Muscovite confederation, which threatens to make the Old World Cossack unless it goes forward in the path ofprogress.

Protection From Clothes
 Moths.

Reaumur, more than loo years ago, made quite extensive researches on clothes moths; and, observing that they never attacked the wool and
 hair on living animals, he inferred that the natural odor of the wool, or
 of the oily matter in it, was distaste- ful to them. He therefore rubbed various garments with the wool of
 fresh pclts, and also wet other gar, ments with the water in which wool had been washed, and found that
 they were never attacked by moths. He also experimented with tobacco
 smoke and the odor ofspirits of tur- pentine. md found that both of these were destructive to the moths, but it
 was necessary to close the rooms
 very tightly, and keep the fumes very dense in them for twenty four hours, to obtain satisfactory results, Mir. C. H. Fernald. of the Hatch Expert
 ment Station of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, has always found that any material subject to the attacks of moths may be pre-
 served from them if packed away
 with sprigs ofcedar between the folds. The oder of cedar K so disagreeabie
 to them that they will not deposit
 their eggs where this odor is at all strong. Chests of cedar, or closets finished in the same wood, will pro tect clothing from moths as long as the odor is strong; but this is lost
 with age, and then they are no pro lection. Itmust he remembered that the odor of cedar, eamphor, etc, only prevents the moth from laying her eggs on the fabrics; but il the
 eggs are laid before the garments are packed away with ce,iar, etc. the
 odor will not prevent the hntchlng of tue eggs nor the destructive work
 oi the iarvm afterwards. Clothing
 may also Dc protected from moths by packing it i'll bags made of either
 stout paper or cotton cloth, fl made
 perfectly tight, but this must be done
 before the moth appear on the wing in the spring. Science.
