To Preserve Textile Fabrics.

A Belgian chemist has discovered means
for rendering fabrics, no matter how delicate
in texture or color, proof against the raw
ages Of decay. The wonderful state of pres
ervation which the head bands of the Egyp-
tian mummies exhibit is due to their having
been impregnated with kind of resin This
led the inventor to make certain experiments
with the substance extracted from birch
bark, to which the peculiar aroma of Rus
sian leather is due and he found out that the
green tar which was left over after the oil
used in tanning had been extracted from the
white bark of the birch tree yields neither
acid nor alkaloid, and that in solution with
alcohol it forms liquid of remarkable fluid
ity with the power of resisting, when once
dried, even the action of alcohol itself. This
substance will, il is said, unite with the most
delicate and brilliant colors, and render them

Frankly Put,

The guests, but possibly not the host, at a
dinner given recently were greatly amused
by the innocent mistake of the little daughter
of one of the company. When 4-year-old
Rosalie, having tried her knife and fork on
the roast beef, passed her plate to her father,
he received it in discreet silence; but the
host, Rosalies uncle, said quizzically. "Why,
Rosaliel Aren't you big enough to cut your
meat?n
Eyes, sir" she replied, putting into form
the thought which her grown up fellow diners
were too polite to utter, Il am big enough at
home, but this meat is 50 tough l can't cut
it.n-X ouths Companion.

A COUNTRY GHOST.
What Was Seen by Young Man His

/ What Was Seen by n Young Man His
Way Home from "A Party.
News of one of the most interesting ghost
stories ever heard in upper DeKalb county
/ has been brought to light here. The facts
are about as follows: Tuesday night a young
man, while returning from "a neighbOrhood
dance about 1 O'Clock, took the lonely road
for home, which runs through dark wood
land, surrounded by deep wales and lofty
peaks, and overhung with huge cliffs, whoss
SUBMITS are crowned with gigantic pines.
Not a clearing disturbs the thickness of the
woodland, save one solitary spot almost over
grown with vines and shrubs where stands

cayed and ruined walls and lofty towers, al
most overgrowu with moss. resembling great
" the old haunted Kirk Alloway, so famous
in Tam OShanter.'
All these scenes combined could not daunt

marched on with quickening pace. But just
Rs he was approaching the old haunted build
ing, which has for many years been frequeuted
by the ghost Of a mysterious old lady, who
many years ago suddenly disappeared, as an
old iireside legend has it, and took up her
abode in the vaults OF this old building, which
and thought TO have been built by them at
least a century ago, and which has for many
years been hidden from public notice, I'M

there, suddenly rising from the ground, like
the ghost Of Banquo, appeared before him Il

and glowing eyes revolving IN their fiery

The Egyptian Book OF the Dead" or fu-

existing record Of the faith of man in the i'm
mortality Of the soul. Its chapters are found
inscribed on mummy cases, or written on
rolls of papyrus within them. It is supposed
the Book Of the Dead" originated with the
Egyptians between 2,G0l and 3, coo years be-
fore Christ. A mummy case from the great
pyramid inscribed l, 700 years before the time
Of Jesus has the following beautiful inspira-
ton: go God, the protector of him who cries
to thee, he is thine; let MIN have no harm;
let him be as one Of thy flying servants. Thou
art he, he is thou. Make it well for him in the
land Of spirits. st Louis Republic.

TO WAIT.

It's woman'shappy lot to walt
To wait'with glad expectancy
And buoyant heart lifted elate
The folded futures mystery.
Whatever joy may come to bless,
Howe'er love sends bis messenger,
No word nor any half caress
May ever be foreStalled by her.
And though her heart yesrn overmuch,
In tenderest song is never sung;
She may not raise with HghteSt touch
The curtain Ger the future hung,
IL love come soon or love come late,
Or, saddest, never come at al,
IT'S woman patient lot to wait
Through ell the lengthening interval.
