One afternoon this lady had company. She
was particularly anxious to produce favor

purpose. She prepared an elaborate supper.
The guests and family were gathered about
the tea table, when one of the boys surprised
his mother by exclaiming during lull in the
conversation, Tell you what, ma, we don't

There was nomentary pause: the hostess

reply and the little laugh prevented any feel

Protecting the Glass.

A reporter for The Chicago journal men
tions an incident which will probably explain
TO many readers the meaning of something
they have probably many times seen without
ever thinking to ask for an explanation
While passing along Dearborn street yes
terday saw a crowd watching the placing
in position of some enormous panes of glass
in handsome new building Tue glass was
the best French plate, and the workmen han
died it as carefully as if it were worth some
thing more than a weeks wages The task
of putting it Ill place was no sooner COM
pleted than one Of the wOrkmen grabbed a
pot of whiting and with big brush daubed
a lot of meaningless marks on it.
/ thought it about as silly thing as man
could do, and with the usual curiosity of a
reporter, asked the foreman why he al
lowed it.
"Whv,n said he. I'VE have 20 mark them
that way or they'd be smashed in no time"
Nv look of amazement doubtless prompted
him TO further explanation, for be said: "I on
see the workmen around new building get
in the custom of showing lumber, etc,
through the open sash before the glass is put
in. They would continue to do il even after
the glass is in if we didn't do something to
attract their attention That's the reason
You always see new windows daubed with
glaring white marks. Even if a careless
workman does start to shove stick of timber
through costly plate of glass, he will stop
short when his eve catches the danger sign.
That white mark is Just a signal which says:
Look ont: you'll break me if you are not
careful"

4 Deadly Serpent.

There is in India Il little serpent, only a
few inches long, called cchys carinata, which
is so horribly vpnumous that its bite is capa-
bic of causing death in two or three seconds
Not q single case is known of recovery from
the bite of echys where the snake has struck
its victim on the bare flesh, without any fab
ric intervening: but in most instances the
sufferer has been paralyzed with intense ag-
ony almost inStantaneously, the blood has
coaGulatcd in the veins and spasm of the
heart has terminated the existence almost
before any remedy could be even attempted.

A Russian scientist has during the last year
been making "A series of observations with the

suit OF these experiments is that G31l pei

mosphere, and only 36]l per cent reaches the

A Shell of Silver.

The most striking feature of the big Lenox
Lyceum is the sounding board that rises from
the stage. When the many electric lights are
turned on their reflections upon it produce a
brilliancy that is almost glaring, and at first
positively painful to the eye. One appears to
be staring into shell of cleaning silver
streaked with gold. This sounding board is
made of solid aluminium, metal which some
wears ago would have been considered too ex-
pensive tn be used in any such quantity. 80

much time for amusement, though she likes 1t

even little better, because she must see SO
much of the dark side of things. But she
isn't altogether oppressed by the sadness and
severity of her life. She wears good gowns
that fit her well, and she likes them, too. She
wears bangs if they become her, and high
heeled boots if her feet are pretty, nor does
she forget, even in the hurry of her morning
toilet, to give her back hair the latest twist.
She doesn't faint away in the dissecting
room at the first cut of the scalpel, as the
man student usually does. She doesn't faint
away at all while there, but after she leaves
the room and the nervous strain is over she
finds the world growing suddenly dark, and
the next thing she knows some one is sopping
her bangs with cologne, and she struggles
back into the world TO say, with professional
interest: "Well, Pm glad TO know what faint

CURING a MASHER.
The Little Scheme of Two Bos ton Women
In New York Car.

The Little Scheme OF Two Dos ton Women
In New York Car.
Sorne womon arc capable OF dealing
with even tho grosser form of this beast
unaided, says q writer Oh Washers in
the New York Sun. Two Boston women
who saw the sights of the metropolis
alono last week used with good effect a
weapon which had proved cfiicacious in
dealing with tho mashers of the Hub.
Ono OF thom carried n parasol with
long and strong handle, which ended in
point almost as sharp as q brad awl.
Sho found carly occasion to uSe it in y
train oa tho Third avenue. Sho and her
companion occupied cross seat, and
tho double se1t opposite was som Gak3n
by one of tho most offensive OF tho
rnaSher tribe. Not satisfied with star
ing impudently at tho ladies, he pres
emily attempted to insinuate his loot
between the feet of tho ono carrying
tho parasol. Apparently by accident,
she brought tho point of hor parasol
down snaartly upon tho fellow foot.
He GaVc an involuntary exclamation Of
pain and withdrew to tho end of tho
scat opposite the other lady. Tho les
son seems not to have been sevoro
enough, for few minutes later he in
suited her in the same manner. This
time he was punished in earnest. THO
woman carrying tho parasol watched
him, and suddenly leaning over to look
out of the window she jabbcd tho brad
point into the follows instcp and gave
1t quick twist before he cod draw
his foot away. The man cried out with
pain, jumped to his feot and limped out
of tho car. Tho passengers could not
understand his actions, and tho lady
with the parasol looked as much sur
prised as anybody. If these parasols arc
Boston institution, tho makers of
them might find ready marlkot in New
