In one respect the feet usually seen at
the Barge Office are like those OF many OF
our Revolutionary progenitors-they are
big. Some OF them would almost fill q
pair Of shoes like the one placarded In a
glass case OF q New York museum as
"worn by a Connecticut farm laborer In
l778." This shoe is so colossal that 1t JUS
titles the belief that IL was constructed
from architectural drawings. No one
need be ashamed OF having big feet. how
ever. as many OF the distinguished men OF
history, including Washington and Lin
coin, had them.
There are some immigrants whose feet
are not conspicuous for their liberal
proportions. The Hungarians--the origi-
nal Magyars only-are noted for their
small feet. Unlike the majority OF the
field laborers OF Europe, the Magyar al
ways wears boots while at work. The
women almost invariably have small and
shapely feet. There is little difference be-
tween the mems boots and the women's
boots. The Hungarian man is great
rider, and, whether he has horse or not.
his boot has little square OF leather at
the heel for the spur to rest on.
That Is the way the male boot Is
made in Hungary. The wearer Is always
happy In the reflection that when he does
get horse he will be ready for the spur.
The Hungarian woman does not pay
much for her stockings. That Is because
she does not wear any. The boot is her
only leg covering, and It Is so long that
the peasant girl with the shortest kind Of
skirts may cross the muddiest sort Of road
on rainy day without fear OF shocking
tho modesty OF any men who inadvert-
emily may be looking in her direction.

ARABIAN SHOE.

AhADiAN ohOts. EhhNOh ShboIs
The sabot OF the French peasant Is a
work OF art compared with the clumsy
shoe OF the agricultural Dutchman. There
is some style about 1t. Only the lower
part is OF wood. The heel has well-de-
fined shape, and the leather top Is often
prettily embroidered and generally has
few Sits In 1t for ventilation. In France
not only the simple and thrifty peasant
wear this sabot, but some OF the wealthy
farmers as we'll. julie Grevy, once presi-
dent OF the volatile republic, wore sabots
when he returned to the bosom Of his
family in his rural retreat. Nobody
could reasonably object to sabots on
aesthetic grounds, and as the French peo-
pie are famous for extracting the greatest
comfort from life, 1t is likely that the
French sabot is comfortable.
The shoes OF the Arab In the picture
call to mind gondola. They are OF dark
leather, with tassels at the toes and en-
broidery on the sides. The slipper OF the
Arab woman was Of the usual Oriental
kind. 1t was yellow, was adorned with
gilt tracery, and had high wooden heel
The woman wore bright red stockings
The only pleasing feature OF her yellnMish
face were her big, lustrous eyes.
OF all the foot gear that comes into the
Barge Office that Of the Russian Jew is
probably the most dilapidated. A dozen
old fellows with frowsy hair and uncombed
patriarchial boards have landed with no
shoes at all. AS substitutes they had old
rags bundled about their feet and kept In
place by pieces OF twine. These half-fam-
ished creatures wore soiled and tattered
clothing made many years ago for other

Block Fuel from Vegetables.

The usual method Of manufacturing
block fuel or briquettes is TO mix certain
quantity of coal dust with pitch, TO heat
the mass by steam SO as TO soften the pitch
and then TO mold into bricks under hy
draulic pressure. It is now stated that a
better result is obtained by using sub
stances Of glutinous and stsrchy charac
ter, such ~ can be obtained from wheat
barley or rye, and from certain vegetables
Adding about 5 per cent Of this gluti
nous material to coal dust, ashes, etc,
this mass is well kneaded and can then be
formed into bricks without pressure, al
though IL might be convenient in large
factories TO employ molds and pressure as
usual. The briquettes made under the
new system are said to he more econom.
ical in use, and to be less smoky than those
previously msde.-New York Telegram.
