Japan,s Feast of DoIls.

A peculiarity of Japanese stores is that only such goods are displayed as are appropriate to the season Of approaching festival Instead of displaying a general stock of goods, as do all dealers in America throughout the year, as soon as the festi- val season is over they are immediately packed up and carefully laid away for another year. For two weeks a great number of stores and street peddlers have been exhibiting a great display of all kinds and sizes of dolls, together with everything thereunto belonging in minia- ture- The reason for all this is that on the third day of the third month is held the ''Hina Matsuri," or, as it is generally called, the Feast of Dolls" It is de- voted to the girls, and is considered by them the greatest day of the season, and In years gone by was duly celebrated by all families with as great pomp, cere- mony and preparation as we look forward to the 4th of July. Of late years those that are called progressive" Japanese seem to have ignored the custom to 6 great extent.
 Most of the dolls on view were from three inches to eighteen inches in height, and dressed to represent some noted dai- mic, shogum or some prominent person age of the feudal times. Many still keep up the custom. and many of the old families possess a stock of heirlooms in the way of dolls that date back many years. Formerly it was the custom that when daughter had been born in the house during the previous year, pair of images are bought for her, which she plays with until she is grown. When she marries she takes them with her to her new home and gives them to her children, and each year she adds to the stock as her family increases, so in some families great number are collected They are made of wood, clay, porcelain, and some are most exquisitely dressed. In all the stores are found complete sets of everything belonging to the house, either for cooking, eating. sleeping or travelling. On the festival day all these are brought out and arranged upon an elevated plat form, and offerings of saki, rice, candies and fruits are made to each. and all phases of female life are most faithfully mimicked by these female juveniles.-San Francisco Examiner.

A Lively Yankoo Skinner.

A Yankee skipper is supposed to be equal to most anything, and recent experience of Capt. A. L. Howard, of Rockland, helps to confirm this idea Being unable to obtain crew in Rock land, Capt. Howard resolved to alone take his schooner to a neighboring port, having obtained the assistance of two men to help him put aboard necessary provisions. When ready for sailing he sent the men ashore and started the vessel. Watching for a moment the boat he had sent shoreward, Capt. Howard saw it capsize and the two men precipitated into the water. He at once leaped from his vessel and swan to the rescue of the landsmen. lighted the boat, assisted the men into it and rowed them safe to terra firma. He then swan back and boarded his vessel, which was beginning to make some headway before a stiff breeze. - Rockland (Me.) Free Press.

The Turquoise.

The following anecdOte quoted by Emanuel, a writer on gem lore, from an old treatise on precious stones, illus trates the peculiar value which this class of gems derived from superstition.
 "One of my relatives, ' runs the story, possessed a turquoise set in a gold ring which he used to wear on his fin- ger as a superior ornament. It hap pened that the owner of the ring was seized with a malady of which he died. During the whole period in which the wearer enjoyed his full health the tur- quoise was distinguished for unparal- leled beauty and clearness; but scarcely was he dead when the stone lost it's lus- ter and assumed a faded, withered ap- pearance, as if mourning for its mas ter. This sudden change in the nature of the stone made me lose the desire ] originally entertained of purchasing it, which l might have done at tri1in9 sum, and so the turquoise passed into other hands. However, no sooner did it obtain Q new owner when 1t regained its former exquisite freshness and lost all traces of its temporary defects. felt greatly vexed that I had lost the chance of procuring such valuable and sensitive gem"
 This is not an infrequent occurrence, l think. One of my own little daugh ters-a child, at the time, of 9-was quite i'll with bilious fever. She wore a turquoise ring which had been pre- sented her at Christmas, and of which she was very fond. One day she called to me in great distress, ''Oh, mamma, my pretty ring is spoiled" 1 went to look at it, and saw that it had indeed lost its luster and it's beautiful blue and was dull and queerish in tint then told her the story of the tur- Quoise, and asked her to notice Gs she grew better if the color and liveliness came back to the stone She did so, and it was with great joy that on her recovery the turquoise in her ring was as blue and pure as ever. Whatever her elders may say to her the child firmly believes that her ring will tell her when she is 'ill.-Sally Joy White in Ladies Home Journal

Alkali and the Virus of Rabies.

In the account prepared by Dr. Bright, of Kentucky, of his treatment of various cases of hydrophobia he ex- presses the opinion that if the blood of @ person bitten is kept in an alkaline condition for several weeks the virus of rabies is by this means destroyed or rendered inert. It has long been known that ammonium allai is an antidote to the virus of venomous reptiles if inject ed into the circulation immediately af- ter the inhiction of the bite.
 It is remarked, however, that in the cases of children it would be more con venient to administer the chloride or acetate of ammonia, owing to the pun gency of the carbonate, some care being also required in keeping the latter with out a loss of any of it's virtues on ac- count of its great volatility. It is thought that after the first day or two it would not be necessary to exhibit the remedy at shorter intervals than, say, every six hours for three or four weeks. This would, it is believed, sufficiently alkalize the blood to neutralize or de- stroy the rabic poison.-New York Trib- une

Shooting by Motor Power.

Electricity is becoming an important factor in all calculations pertaining to warfare. The latest conception in this line is the firing of Gatling guns by electric motor power The Crocker- Wheeler Motor company now have in their new shop a Colt Gatling gun, to which they propose to attach one of their motors, by the operation of which it will be possible to fire 1, ,OOO per min ute. The heating of the barrels will be the only limitation to rapidity Of firing. By the hand method it is pos sible to discharge 800 shots per minute. One thousand shots a minute would soon annihilate an army.-New York Journal
