Tho Empress Elizabeth, OF Austria.
smokes from thirty TO forty Turkish and
Russian cigarettes dav, and for many
years, says London Tid-Bits, 1, has been
her invcicratc custom to pun away
after dinner at strong Italian cigar,
one OF those with straw running
through It, and which IL brough. to her
with her cup of Turkish coffee every
evening on gold salvcr.
On hor writing table arc always n
large silver box OF rcpoussc work filled
with cigarettes, n matchbox of carved
Chinese jade. and capacions ash re-
cciycr. Almost mechanically her Majesty
lights cigarette after cigarette as shc
sit, In her great writing room at Godollo,
which Is fitted up with carved oak panels
and Gobcria tapestries: the sombcr hue
of tho walls being relieved here and
there by trophies of the chase.
Tho Czarina..of Russia, who is likewise
one OF the vassals OF King Nicotine,
smokes in somewhat more indolcnt
and almost Oriental fashion. Stretched
on the sillScn cushions of broad. low
divan, at Gatschina. she follows drcami-
~ with her beautiful, dark eyes tho
rings of blue smoke that her Grim son
lips part to send upward into the pcr-
fumcd air of her boudoir-a boudoir
which she calls her ''dcn." and which is
copied from one of the lovclicst rooms
of the Alhambra, with palms raising
their banners against the gorgeous col
ors and diapcrcd gold OF the walls.
Queen Marguerite. of Italy. is another
nf IN 1u1 wh n In,
the use of tobacco. Her flashing black
eyes look laughingly through fragrant
clouds of smoke. and she IL wont to de-
clare that her cigarette is more essen
tinl to her comfort than any thing else
in life.
Christina, Queen Regent of Spain. is n
great advocate of tobacco. She con-
sumcs large quantity OF Egyptian CT
garcttcs. and there Is nothing that her
little "Bubi. his Majesty, King Alphon-
so NH. enjoys more than when his
mother permits him to strike a match
and apply the flame to the end of her
cigarette.
Tho smoking paraphernalia of the
beautiful cx-Quccn Natalie of Servia is
of the most elaborate and magnificent
description. while the poet-Qucen of
Eoumanin, so well known in the literary
world under the pseudonym of Carmen
sylvia" is content with the gold cigar
cite case suspended to her cbatclainc.
Tho Comtcsse dc Paris, the Queen de
jurd of France, is addicted to mild
IIavanas of delicious flavor, and her
daughter, Queen Amelia. of Portugal, is
a source of considerable fortune to the
manufacturers OF cigarettes at Dresden.

some Classic Puns.

Probably some OF the readers re-
member the beautiful pun that Mr..
Evarts made at n dinner at Del
monico's some years ago. In all the
constellation Of his famous puns this
is the brightest star. The dinner
taking place about Thanksgiving time,
Mr.. Evarts, when he arose TO speak
began in this way:
Friends, you have just been having
a turkey stuffed full of sage; now ]
present you with a sage stuffed full OF
turkey"
1t made no difference what he said
after that; the best thing he could
have said would have been nothing at
all.
But 1t remained for San Francisco
man who is seeking an Office from the
president and who has been in town
some time waiting for it to make one
OF the best after dinner hits OF all. He
was called upon to speak at banquet
recently. and boldly proclaimed that
he was after an Office.
"And here" he went on, 1--WE
been four months waiting and waiting
and lowering between the certainty OF
an appointment or disappointment!''

Changed the Subject.

Occasionally people who laud their
own possessions to the disadvantage of
those belonging to their neighbors' re-
ceive an unexpected check.
A botanist took "a party of ladies and
gentlemen over his grounds, pointing
out the rarest among his plants and
flowers and explaining their virtues.
One of the visitors was an elderly
miss, who appeared to take infinite de-
light in declaring, whenever she had IA
chance, that the plants and flowers in
her own garden were as beautiful as
those in the botanist's.
just as they were passing giant
cactus she exclaimed, "Oh! that is
nothing extraordinary. have II much
larger cactus at home. Indeed; l
planted it myself"
''How stranger" the professor OBJ
served. This plant is already sixty
three years old, and, if yours is still
larger"
Hero the lady changed the subject.

Lifts In French Houses,

Lifts, or elevators, as our American
cousins call them, are much more
frequently to he found in Paris houses
than was the case some years ago,
when they were confined almost ex-
clusively to hotels. The French are
great conservatives in their way, and,
as a rule, only adopt some improve
ment or invention when it's advant-
ages have been tested thoroughly by
more go-ahead nations. One or two
bad accidents which occurred when the
ascenseur was first introduced here
created u prejudice against it, but
this feeling has sincebeen overcome to
a considerable extent by the horrors
OF climbing up hundreds of stairs
which people with fair circle of
friends to visit have to undergo in the
course of the day. So the lift is becom-
ing q recognized institution in the
fashionable quarters of the metropolis,
and few OF the large houses that have
been built of late are lacking in con-
venience the want of which is felt
sorely by those who have grown ac-
customed to its use.

INC Cover. Mako enc aook..

One of the most expensive books
brought out this year has failed to sell
because it had a dull colored cover.
It was very richly illustrated and
elegantly printed, and as further
effort to make 1t unique the idea OF
binding It in leather was adopted.
That killed 1t. The booksellers offered
1t to their lady customers but the
ledies listened to nothing that was said
for it. They brushed 1t aside with
the remark, ATS not pretty" or 1T
will not match anything in the house. "
Vastly inferier books with splash OF
red or the cover or with gold or silver
chasing on the binding were sold as
fast as they could be printed. New

Fire Proof Papers.

A composition to be used for render
ing paper and other substances orma-
terial fire-proof is made as follows:
Take of sulphate OF ammonia, : parts;
phosphate of ammonia, 5 parts; sal
amnoniac, parts; sodium tung-
state, 6parts and clear water 100
parts. These materials or substances
are thoroughly mixed and commingl-
ed together, the result being a clear
colorless liquid, in which the solid
particles are held in suspension. The
paper or other fabric which it is desired
to render fire-proof is dipped into
this solution and thoroughly impreg-
mated or saturated Herewith. 1t is
then removed and dried without
wringing, when it is ready for ironing.
The ironing or managing should be
performed with brass plates so as to
avoid any liability OF spotting the
material. Fabrics thus impregnated
with the solution will be rendered
almost absolutely fire-proof, as they
