A Novel Pocketbook.

What is known as conmuter pocket
book is very popular with the young
women who live in the suburbs of Gin

and from the city on visiting and shop
ping expeditions. This pocketbook is
fat, roomy and rectangular, and in the
front is set tiny watch, the face of
which shows through hole in the leath-
or. The unfortunate woman who is al
ways obliged to keep an eye on the fight
Of time has this watch in view when en-.
gagged in the whirl of shopping.-Ex-

Tho Time to Gather Flover,,

Do not gather flowers while the sun is
shining upon them, but choose instead
the early morning, or tho hour after the
sun has gone down. Avoid pulling or
tearing from the plant; cut with sharp
scissors or a knife, and in the case Of
varieties having u large stalk or stem
rub little dirt over tho wound. AL
ways leave as long stem as possible,
not to interfere with other buds or bios
sons.-John Richards in Jenness-M Miller

Botany Mado Easy.


Children dearly love to initiate; in
that respect they should not be offended
al hearing themselves called very nearly
the equals of monkeys. Boy Blue lives
in family where botany furnishes one
Of the occupations and pastimes of the
hour. Scarcely day passes without
some learned exposition at the table or
the display of leafy wonder.
It is not strange that the little lad has
caught the prevailing mania to the ex-
tent Of dabbling in science on his own
account. One day he was overheard by
his elders, as he gave the following
learned exposition to little cousin.
Boy Blue held an apple tree branch in
his hand, and began enlarging upon its
peculiarities.
"Now, Tommy said he, ''see how
very curious this Is. There isn't often
so many pistils in the middle, but this
is rare specimen. and it's got, should
think. as many as fifty. The petals, you
notice, are pinkish. It isn't often you
find one yellow or blue, but IL you should
you'd send 1t to some professor and he'd
name It after you. Perhaps he'd call it
the Tommy,ania.
"Then here are the leaves. You'd
say, it you didn't know anything about
botany, that they were netted veined;
but look o little Closer
Hero Boy Blue himself looked o little
closer, and found that he was not stat
ing fact.
II do b1ieve this is netted," he ex-
claimed, recovering his self possession
with the coolness Of q true scientist, II
shall have to press this specimen and la
bel It rare, very rare indeed Now, OBJ
serve how few leaves is on this stem.
Only six or seven, you'll find; never moro
than seven. One, two"-
As the young lecturer proceeded he
found his prophecy was to be belied.
That, however, did not daunt him.
Calmly stripping of the superhuous
leaves he went on counting and an
nounced in triumph: "seven! I told you
so. Oh, Tommy, It's great comfort to
be real botanist!" Youths Companion.

Now Mechanical Alarm.

A simple attachment is pow used in
connection with an ordinary alarm clock
which will light a cooking stove or boil
kettle at any time it is set to. A kettle
of water can thus be placed on the stove
before going to bed and made to boil Just
before the sleeper is awakened by the
ringing of the alarm.-New York Com

tho czar.
"And mine are anxious to die for me-"
added Napoleon.
At tho suggestion of the Prussian king

royal party wero breakfasting in the
fifth story Of building that faced a

in one of his soldiers and command him

made tho first test.

TIE FORCE BILL.

Nj. Quay created surprise in the
Senate by making motion TO postpone
action on the Force bill until mex
session.
This may be taken as an evidence
that the Pennsylvanians who have
large interests in the South have beer
bringing influence to bear upon their
Senator. They have large interests
down here and cannot afford to have
them destroyed by such legislation.
The Quay resolution proposes tic
amend the rules Of the Senate by pre-,
vidipg:
First. That during the present SEES
sion the Senate will not take up Tor
consideration any legislative business
other than the tariff bill, general APP
preparation bills, bills relating to pub
lie buildings, and public lands, pen
sions and Senate or concurrent reso-
lutions.
Second. That the consideration of
all other bills shall be postponed until
the next session, and
:. Third. That the vote on the tariff
bill and the amendments thereto
shall be taken on the Both OF August
at 9 O'Clock p. m, without further
debate, until the consideration of
the bill and amendments be com
There is hardly doubt but that the
Republicans will side with Senator
QUAY. and the bill will not be discussed
in the Senate this session. If acton is
not taken this session it will hardly be
taken at all. So much opposition has
developed against the bill that it is
practically killed, and when man
like Quay asks to have action on it
postponed. its death warrant to all
intents and purposes is signed.
