"sIy Lords Aud Ladies'"

II Is very curious fact that. with
all our boasted free and equal super
iority over the communities of the Old
World. our people have the most eUor-
nous appetites FOR Old World titles of
distinction. Sir Michael and Sir Hans
belong 10 one Of the most extended of
the afistocratic orders. But we have
also "knights aud Ladies' of Honor.
and. what Is still grander. Royal Con-
elave of Knights aud Ladies'. Royal

Imperial Court. Grand Protector.
and Grand Dictator" and so on.
Nothing less than "Grand" and
Supreme" Is good enough for the
dignitaries Of our associations of citi-
zens.
Where does all this ambition for
names without realities come from7
Because Knight of the Garter wears

ancient families. or the men who had
made themselves illustrious By their

IL appears to be peculiarly Ameri-
can weakness. The French republicans
of the earlier period thought the term
citizen was good enough for any
body. At later period '.le Roi

common title given to Louis Philippe.
But nothing is too grand for the Amer

Fast work In Making Matches.

The operation of making matches
from pine log may be divided into
four heads-namely:
Preparing the splints. dipping the
matches. box making aud filing.
When the timber Is brought into the
cutting-room OF the factory il Is seized
ppon ~ \ gang of MEN, who place IL
before cirenlar saw. where II Is cnt
iutO blocks fifteen inches long. which
i the length of seven matches. Ii Is
then freed of its bark and taken TO the
turning lathe. where. by means of
4 special form of fixed cutting band
running its entire length. continuous
tool, the thickness of the match is cut
OIL
As the block revolves and decreases
ia diameter the knife advances and a
band Of veneer OF uniform thickness is
obtained. As the veneer rolls of the
knife il Is met by eight small knives.
which cut il into seven separate bands.
each the size of match. BY this one
operation seven long ribbons of wood.
each the length aud thickness Of a
match, are obtained. These are then
broken into pieces six feet long. the
knotty parts removed. aud they are
then fed into machine which looks
and acts like a straw chopper. which
cuts them into single matches. The
machine eats $50 bands at the same
time, and mechanical device pushes
them forward the thickness of match
at each stroke of the cutter This lit
| tie machine with its one sharp knife
can cut over 10, 600 600 matches day.
From the cutting room the splints
are taken to the dry room where they
are placed in revolving drums. which
/ absorb all tile moisture the sp ints may
coutain. They are then prepared for
/ dipping process. which is very im-
/ portant operation, as each splint must
/ have sufficient space 10 be fully coated.
and yet not placed so close to others as
| TO cause the mixture TO clot the heads
of the other splints. To do this they
/ are placed under an ingeniously con-
4 structed machine which seems. to work
with almost human Intelligence, and
are caught up aud placed closely, but
at regular intervals, in dipping frame.
! These frames contain forty-four nova
BILE laths. and between each lath the
machine places. with clockwork regu-
larity. fifty splints. making over 2,OOI
| splints in each frame.
The heads of the spiints are all OF
the same level, and single attendant
at each machine can place over one
million of spiints in the frame per day
The dipping vat is IA stove of masonry
which contains three square pans. The
first pan is for heating the splints 81
they will absorb the mixture, the see
ond contains motion paraffine in whicl
the points are dipped. and in the thir'
they are coated with igniting compo
sition. Over eight million matche
can be dipped by a skillful workman
in one day. After the dipping pro
cess the matches are dried while still
in the frames, and are then taken t,
the packiug-room. where they are pu
into boxes by hand Woodworker.

The BEAVER.


An old hunter writing 10 the Chicago
Times on the habits of the beaver says:
"There Is no doubt of the sagaelty
aud intelligence of the beaver, and the
attempt of the writer of the article TO
catch the beaver by setting trap Ia
the dam after cutting II away will
amuse every old trnpper that reads IL.
The beaver will invariably use the trap
10 repair his broken dam, and win
very seldom be caught Ia that way.
Many trappers have also had the expe-
rience OF having their traps filled with
mud and sticks when they have at
tempted to trap him on n log by re-
moving the pile of mud placed there
before and setting trap in its place.
The beaver Is toe sharp for that, but Is
easily caught when the trapper has
learned how.
1t Is an impression with many that
the beaver uses his broad FIAT tail as n
trowel and To carry mud, etc. 90 build
their dams, but such Is not the case
They use their short fore legs and
paws TO carry up mud aud grass from
the bottom of the lakes they inhablt.
and make piles of mud and grass. such
as settles 10 the bottom on the logs
that lay out from the shores The
writer was never able TO learn the
object Of this. but presumes they found
some article of food Ia H.
Their food consists. mostly. of the
bark of the willow and cottonwood.
which they cut down and cut Into
sticks about four feet long and. by
some process known only TO the beaver
himself. they will sink TO the bottom OF
the lake or bayou, and there they rte
main until needed for use. They also
will cut down the white ash. The
writer OF this measured white ash
that was nearly cut down that meas
ured twenty inches i'm diameter.
What their object was in this is in
definite, as IL WAS not near any dam
and could not be used for any purpose
except for food. The beaver makes an
interes ting pet. They are easily tanned,
are entirely harmless. and have a very
decided propensity TO build dams. II
they can get the material they will
dam at the least provocation. or rather
opportunity, There Is no danger OF
their being worried by dogs. as one
old beaver however peaceable. would
make bulldog pale with envy at the
way he can use those cutting teeth
when the occasion requires.
The writer expects 10 pass the win
ter In beaver country and try &c
bring home a few young beaver In the
spring.
In localities where they are not
hunted or trapped there would be nc
trouble 10 get litter of young ones
I but such localities are rather scarce al
present unless one goes well up toward
| the Blackfoot reservation. and there
are few hunters that care about endur
ing the hardships Of winter In thai
locality"

The Use of water and sale.

Salt is an absolute essential to the
diet of man. II promotes health in
various ways. Many of the functions
of the body go on better under its iu-
fluence. and without it the blood be-
comes Impoverished. While a COM
pete deprivation of salt would produce
disastrous results. an excessive use of
it would scarcely be less harmful. In
large doses it acts as an emetic; in
quantities beyond the requirements of
health it irritates the stomach and in
testines and sometimes purges. Those
who use salt unusually freely almost
always suffer more or less from consti-
patton.
To drink large quantities of water
daily should be the rule with those who
suffer from constipation. Each day
the system needs at least two quarts of
water. as about that quantity is used
up or thrown out of it every twenty
four hours. Fruits and vegetable
foods contain much water, and in tea,
coffee, SOUPS, ETC.. considerable is
taken habitually. In all ways, as
stated, about two quarts of water
should enter the stomach daily. 1t is
a good plan to drink one or two glasses
of water from half an hour to an hour
before eating breakfast. And it may
be either hot or cold as preferred.
Whichever is used. the water should
be slowly slipped. To deluge the
stomach with cold water would be to
invite dyspeptic troubles. s.-Boston Her.

THE vaNDeRslLr CHILDREN.



Although all tho members Of the
Vanderbilt family entertain on mag
nilicent scale, says writer In the
Ladies' Home Journal. they never per-
NIT their children 10 remain up late at
night. are extremely careful In their
educaiion and. In n word are fitting
them for life as well as any mother or
father could do. IL Is Que OF the rules
In all the houses of the Vanderbilts
that the children shall 90 TO bed early
aud rise early. The little boys and
girls are up before seven o'clock In the
morning. Their nurses Immediately
take charge of them, see that they are
properly bathed and dressed. aud then
they go down TO breakfast. which is
served at half-past seven o'clock. II is
an unpretentious meal, with plenty OF
fresh milk. eggs oatmeal. and bit OF
steak or a chop that will add strength
10 their physique and color 10 their
checks. After breakfast there Is an
hour Of study.
There Is something for these little
ones TO do at all times during the day.
They 90 through their studies SYSTEM
atically, and then, about half-past
nine. are taken out for a walk. They
are allowed to romp In the streets and
In the parks to their hearts content.
At eleven o'clock they are brought
home, and a light luncheon of milk
and bread Is served. after which there
are more stndles--eitber French, Ger
man or drawing-and then another
breathing spell-it may be horseback
riding or drive out through the park
aud along the country roads. Back
they all come about four o'clock. and
there Is another hour OF study, and
then they are through for the day.
They are allowed to do Just as they
please until tea time. when. after their
meal. they spend pleasant hour or so
with their fathers and mothers and
others who may drop I'm TO call.
/ Promptly at eight o'clock they are all
I Ia bed TO sleep soundly, and get up
the nest morning and go through tile
safae programme.
/ So IL Is not strange that all the chill
4 dren of the Vanderbilt family are fur
ther Ia advance of their little friends
/ In the matter of education. For they
study. study. study all the time. They
are all fond of music and most of them
can play on the piano. The girls are
learning to play on the harp, and the
boys are famous among their friends
as violinists and banjo players. IL
/ you were TO see these children on the
street you would not for n moment
suspect that they we're other than chill
dren OF parents In ordinary circum-
stances. They make no display at
elaborate dress. The eldest of Cor
nelius Vanderbilts daughters is dressed
/ plainly in little, pretty. cheap dresses
without anv braid OF ornamentation.
She wears snug-titting cloth jackets.
and the little cap that sits gracefully
on her head could be duplicated for q
couple of dollars.
