"A Supposed Shakespeare Table.

A very interesting piece Of furniture has
Just BEEN added to the museum at Shakes
peare's birthplace-an old oaken table said
to have belonged to Shakespeare's family
and to have been III use in the poets day. 1t
was only discovered a few days ago, and
ones examination of it on Saturday was
practically the first inspection to which it
has been submitted. It is q low round table,
with raised edge, standing on stout center
leg with three toes. The top has evidently
been beeswaxed for centuries. On the under
surface Of the table two letters u. W. appear.
The old Stratford families whose surnames
begin with W are legion. Shakespeare had
cousins named Webb, but the records do not
allow any Of them Christian name needing
or ]. Tho information on which the table
was purchased is to be found in statement
made on oath before Mr.. Lloyd Chadwick,
Warwick. This gentleman, who is 50 years
Of age, states that when q boy he remembers
tho table being in the possession Of his grand
mother, and he often heard 1t spoken of by
her and others. She bought it from q wom-
an who purchased 1t at the sale OF Shakes
peare,s house In Henley street, stratford-on-

Deepest Lake In ths World.

In the Cascade mountains, about seventy
Eve miles northeast Of Jacksonville, Ore, the
seeker for the curious will find the Great
Sunken lake, the deepest lake in the world.
This lake rivals the famous Valley Of Sinbad
the Sailor. It Is said to average 1900 feet
down to the water on all its sides. The depth
Of tho water is unknown, and its surface is as
smooth and unru6ded as mammoth sheet OF
glass. il being SO far below the mountain rim
as to be unaffected by the strongest winds. It
Is about fifteen miles in length and about four
and half wide.
For unknown ages It has lain still, silent
and mysterious in the bosom Of the great
mountain range, like gigantic trench
scooped out BY the hands Of giant genii.--

I spend great deal OF time travelling over
the railroads Of the country, nnd naturally
have something to do with the trainboy and
his stock in trade. Twas in reflective mood
the other day as was carried along through
the mountains OF West Virginia towards St.
Louis, and it occurred to me that In the last
ten years there had been great improve
ment in the quality OF the literature sold on
the trims. Formerly the trainboy had moth
ing to offer one who wanted to rend except
the most dreadful kind of sensational books
describing the exploits Of burglars and conf
dence men; or, if lie found that his customer
was not that kind Of u man, he would rush
to the other extreme and try to sell him
volume of Moody's sermons. Nowadays the
newsboy hands you Howels, James and Toll
stoi, and sells the hooks, too, and even his
flashy stut gets hardly lower tnan THAT
Frenchman'' of Guntcr, or a book of Laura
Jean Libbey. 1t may be that the taste OF the
reading part OF the travelling public has
changed considerably in ten years, or it may
be that the news companies have more intel
ligent men selecting the books to be sold on
the trains. At any rnte we must all feel
grateful for the change.-Traveler in st.
Louis Gios.Democrat.
A First Principle Of bridge Building.
If one plank would hold up 100 pounds on
the center, then the two planks placed
side by side would hold up 200 pounds while,
placing the panks one on top of the other,
and mailing them firmly together, they would
hold up 400 pounds. In this way we see that,
in order to increase the strength Of the bridge
or beam faster than we increase the amount
of material, tho increased amount of material
should go into the depth Of the beam and not
into ths width Of it. This is one Of the first
principles in the resistance Of material, that
the strength OF a beam varies directly as the
width-that is, if we make the beam twice as
wide, it will hold twice as much; and that
the strength varies as the square Of the depth
that Is, II we make it twice as deep, it will
hold up four times as much. II We make it
three times as deep, it will hold up nine time:
as much Of a load. So that you can readily
understand that, in order to increase tht
strength Of the bridge or beam without in
creasing the material in the same proportion
the increased amount of material should bt
put into the depth and not into the width

Gray Hair,

Women become gray quite as soon as men,
but owing to the use of artificial fr;z1es and
bangs the silver threads can be concealed for
greater length of time. While men have
been known TO dye their hair and wear wigs
now there are comparatively few who do, the
tendency in their case also being to let na-
turc have her way, even though she may

The Gambia, Tree.

The cannibal tree, which am strongly
tempted to call the most wonderful OF
Gods many wonders in vegetable life, con-
tests for space to spread its horrid leaves
with the stinging tree in many parts Of
the Australian jungles. If the singing
tree could be appropriately styled the
demon of the antipodian wilds, the canni-
bal tree is surely "a thousand devils painted
brown" as Wilson says Of the feelers Of
the devil-fsh.
1t grows up in the shape of huge pine
apple and seldom ins a hight of Over
eight feet, in rare instances nine to eleven
It's hight has no control Of its diameter, as
the reader may imagine when told that
one of eight feet is frequent three to five
feet through at the ground. The leaves
which resemble wide boards OF dark olive
green more than anything else, are fire.
quently ten to twelve feet long and twenty
inches through in the pulpy part, next &c
the trunk. These thick, board-like leaves
all put out from the top of the tree and
hang down to the ground, forming kind
of umbrella around the stem.
Upon the apex of the cone, around
which all these mammoth leaves center,
and looking much like the pistils of a
huge flower, are two concave figures re-
sembling dinner-plates, strung one above
the other on a stick. These are constantly
filed with a siekening, intoxicating honey
distilled by the tree.
The natives of South Australia worship
the cannibal tree in the name OF "The
Devil of Trees" and perform many I'M
canny rites about its death-dealing leaves,
not infrequently going so far as to sacrifice
one of their number to the bloodthirsty
monster

ann LooK Like LADY,,
How a Brave Young Girl subdued .
Crowd of Bold, Bad Boys.

About thirty years ago, says tb1 Youths
Companion, a young girl in western city
was given charge Of Sunday-school class
Of rough boys, usually known as river
rats who had never been in any school
before. When she entered the room she
found them lounging on the desks and
benches, wearing their hats, putting vile
cigars, defiant leer on every face. They
greeted her with loud laugh, and one o.
them exclaimed;
"Well, sis. you gcin' to teach us?"
She stood silent until the laugh was ovel
and then said quietly:
''Do look like lady?'
An astonishing stare was the only repl.
they gave. II. 49,.
tIemen, when a lady enters the room, tax
of their hats and throw away their cigars
The lowest American secretly beheye
himself to Be gentleman, and in momen
every hat was off and the lads were Tange'
in orderly attention.
So remarkable was the success of thi
girl in managing and influencing men q
the toughest sort that she made it tn
work of her life. She established elea
and respectable clearinghouse for sailor
and boatmen, and reading and COTE
rooms for laborers, and founded an orde
of honor, the members of which strove t
lead sober, Christian lives themselves an
tohelp their fellows to do the same.

A woman and Her Umbrella.

With an umbrella a woman is more at
home, as she regards it as a stick dressed
In petticoats, but even then she is exasper-
ating in her management of it. On a
clear day she holds it Imply and it falls
down on the street, is picked up by a
guileless man, who hands it to her, and
who gets IN return, not a polite Thank
you" but a very digni6ed one, that in
sinuates that he meant to keep it. On a
rainy day it is carried stifiy and sternly
over her head for safety. The rest of the
world walk ON each side of her, for men
may come and men may 60, but that
umbrella pursues a straight career re-
gardless Of the rights of other PEG
pie. When she gets in street car the
umbrella is dripping. Does she hold it
against her own dress? Certainly not.
She holds the umbrella and lets the water
run down the sides of the trousers of the
unfortunate man who may be next to her.
His only safety from pneumonia is in
flight. Scowls viii not induce her to re-
move the umbrella, and she is happiest if
it has sword handle that will suggest
deeds of darkness that she has in view. If,
instead of doing away with skirts, some
body would keep woman in the house on
rainy days or teach her how to carry an
umbrella properly, the thanks of an en-
tire nation would be given to that person,
and he could have many umbrella stands
erected to his memory or his statue placed
wherever he desired it.-BdDs Letter.

strance Redsteads.

In Brittany, the peasants have some
strange customs, and one of them is of
quite ancient origin. Many years ago the
coast was often visited by pirates who
came upon the people by night, entering
their houses and carrying away all the
money and other treasure that they could
find. In order to protect themselves the
people had an odd kind of bedstead made,
which looks exactly like cupboard, with
shelves and door. On the lowest shelf
slept father Breton, on the next mother
Breton, while the little Bretons were dis
tributed on the higher shelves. A small
opening, like the portfolio of a steamship,
was made against each shelf, and covered
over with a brass wire sieve, which adj
mitted all the air that the family had to
breathe at night. When bedtime came
they crept into their places In the cup
board, taking their treasure with them,
locked the door and slept soundly. After
a time, however, the pirates found a way
to get what they wanted. They simply
carried of the whole bedstead and It's In
habitants, and disposed of its contents ac-
cording. to convenience. Many Of these
curious articles of furniture are still to be
found in the old houses of Brittany. Some
are handsomely carved, and are priced by
curiosity-seekers.- II. North in Vide

California wines in Europe.

A Californian in Europe writes to a
friend in San Francisco, in reference to the
outlook there for the California wine in
dustry, as follows: "Thepremiums received
in Paris are of the greatest Importance,
but will not help Us selling wine in France,
as the French people are our direct COM
petitors and the largest exporters of wine.
But in Germany and England we are on
the same footing, the product of France
and California paying the same duty, and
at present nine-tenths of all the wines con-
sumed In these countries come from
France, although there exists a strong sus-
