excellent preventive OF these troubles. as it
makes the blood rich and pure, and keeps the

this season. If you are subject to rheumatic

A STEEL-CUTTING SAW.

One That VIII Be Used to Cut ArmOr
Plates for Steel Ships.
General Manager Potter of the Home
stead Mills of Carnegie Bros. d Co. has in
vented cold saw for the purpose OF
saving iron and steel, which has
proved a great success. and is ere
ating considerable interest. For some
wears an instrument has been in use,
known as the hot saw that is, it could
only cut metal that had been heated to red
ness. but it is net equal 10 the new saw
brought out by Mr.. Potter. The hot saw
leaves burr on one edge, but the new cold
saw does, clean, smooth work and IS not
expensive.
A reporter had talk with a gentleman
who had seen the saw at work short time
ago, and secured from him the following de-
scTiption OF the new invention The lnStru-
ment itself is simply circular saw Of fine
steel, tempered somewhat hard, and about
one-ouarter OF an inch in thickness at the
periphery. 1t is ground slightly thinner at
its center to clear itself easier III deep cut
Ii is make to revolye at slow speed, While
the old hot saw was run at high rate, and
did its work by means of the intense fric-
ton created rather than It's teeth. 1t cuts
but one inch minute.
The machine differs from the ordinary
circular saw in this respect that it is not the
work that moves up TO the saw, out the
work is fixed stationary and the saw is made
to travel along the table through 1T. 1t is
driven by w0rnl-wheel and screw of some
four or five feet in length, along which it
can easily be moved by hand-screw gear or
by self-aeting feed gear. The saw runs in
a tank of solution, and the greatest care Is
necessary in regard to the quality of the
materials in this solution. 1t is made up Of
ten pounds OF whale-oil soap, fifteen pounds
of salSoda, two gallons of lard oil, with
water added to make forty gallons of the
mixture. The new saw will be used in cut
ting the armor plates for the Government
the proper siZe.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

over them; heavy arches and columns rise
from the floor and support the vast stone
roof and the city above it. While some are
still used as cisterps, Others, long since dry,
have been employed as places Of residence
and even as workshops, and in more than
one of these subterranean reservoirs colonies
of weavers spinneTS, baSket-makers and
the like are established.
The streets on three sides Of the city end
at the water, where are innumerabe small
wharves and Quays, at which caiqreS are
constantly in waiting to take passengers 10
the suburbs The Turkish caique is boat
which closely resembles a Venetian gondola,
being long. narrow ard as easily upset as
blrch-bark canoe. PeriiOuS as it seems,
however, it is handled easily and gracefully
by the boatmen, who do an enormous bust
ness between the quays of COnstantinople
and those Of the many suburbs. The caiQue
is the harbor cab of the Sultan's city, and
thousands of them are licensed and reg
stered, not so much for the purpose of pro-
tecting travellers as that the Government tax
may be collected from the bOaJmen.
From the caique with its turhaned oars
man to the hOTse-caT with It's uniformed con-
ductor and driver is a violent change, but
one that can in COnstantinople be met in
minutes walk. The Improvement of many
Of the streets since the great fires has faciii-
tated the establishment of hoTse-car lines,

USEFUL HINTS.

The best broom is Of a lght-green color.
1t is tougher than the yellow.
If sassafras bark is sprinkled among dried
fruit it will keep out the worms.
Honey should be kept in the dark or 1t
will granulate. The bees, knowing this.
work in dark hives.
VII lite dishes en- be marked with ones
own name on the back with a common pen
and ink. and IL Will not wash off Tor long
time.
If d0ughnuts ara cut out an hour before
they are fried, to allow a little time for ris-
ing, they will be much lighter. Try cutting
at night and frying in the morning.
Put eamphor gum with your new silver
ware and it will never tarnish AS long as the
gum is there. Never wash silver in soap
suds, as that gives it white appearance.
Rubbing bruise in sweet oil and then in
spirits of turpentine, il is said, will usually
prevent the unsightly black and blue spots,
which not only tell tales but deform.
Late in the season, when turnips, pars-
nips, carrots, etc., begin to lose their sweet
ness, they may be greatly improved by add
ing a teaspoonful or two Of sugar TO the
water they are boiled in.-PiOneer Press.

FLORAL DECORATIONS.

Breakfasts and Lunches Which Fur
nished Some Suggestions.
Two or three pretty breakfasts and lunches
given within a few days furnished some
suggestions tor flowe: decorations. AT one
table laid for twenty-four people daft dis
were the chosen blossoms and were ar
ranged with no green. but their own spikes
in glasses of different heights and sizes. A
more elaborate arrangement of the same
flowers was obtained at smaller dinner by
making a bank of moss in the middle of the
table between the candelabra. Into this
green heap fern frOnds were trust irregn-
larly and among the ferns were the long
stemmed yellow flowers. To fill up the
sides Of the table long sprays of daffodils
and grass were knotted with yellow ribbons,
the end sprays making pOSieS. Yellow can
die shades were usrd. and all the glass had
a faint golden tint that helped out the effect
wonderfully.
A rose table was one of the most beauti-
full seen in many seasons. For q ladies'
lunch the cloth was laid with a pale green
silk center cloth, about which were arranged
Od-fashloned decanter stands, in which
were heaped large pink roses with reddish
brown leaves. Less novel, but almost
equally charming, was the rose table at
which Mrs. Stanley sat down with few
friends the day before she sailed away over
the stormy Atlantic with her explorer hus-
band. The center cloth on this quiet little
occasion was of pale mauve. and the roses
were in small silver baskets with mauve
ribbons.
Most roses appear more frequently for
table and drawing-room. The newest and
quaintest candidate for the post Of honor in
the middle of the board is a huge, low
round bowl of Japanese china in soft shades
of green and gray with a dozen clown
figures perched upon its brim. and gazing
down into the water, where may blobs" or
cowslips or swamp buttereups are floating.
At afternoon receptions the newest and
prettiest idea in floral decoration is to put a
velvet cushion upon table and TO throw
across this a long spray of orchids with
delicate foliage.-Commercial Advertiser.

EMPIRE FURNITURE.
An Exhibition Of Imperial Relics on The Champ
de Mars.
Special to THE SUNDAY CALL.

Saturday, President Carnot formally
opened the Retrospective Exhibition on
the Champ de Mars. This exhibition is
organized for the benefit of the Philan-
thropic Society, of which Prince d'Aren-
berg is President
1t is the resurrection OF an epoch in furni-
ture and decoration. and were Nine Re-
camier to return she would be as much at
home on the Champ de Mars as she was at
the Castle of Clichy or the Abbaye au Bots.
Much of the furniture was brought from
the Government stOre-houses, much from
Compiegne and private collectors like Alex
andre Dumas fills, the Earl of LyttOn. the
Duke Of Trevise and the Marquis of Bir0n
have lent many OF their treasures.
This exhibition will bring the empire style
of furniture again into fashion. Thirty or
forty years ago every one rdiculed massive
mahogany, brass trimmings, clocks with
helmets, eagles, chlmeTa, sphinx and col
umnS-E2ypt and Rome combined. Some
amateurs during the past five years have
tried to revive the taste OF the empire.
They have bought these clocks, candle
sticks, gilded con sofas. beds with columns,
designs of lotus flowers, crowns of laurel,
Egyptian beadS-ail these details that make
the historians delight. AT this exposition
one sees Josephine's bed in the form of a
chalse-lOngue, and the bed of Mile. Mars,
with its dull red hangingS and cover; also
her bureau, OTnamented with plaques of
SeYroS porcelain and bronZe figures.
A cabinet contains many objects used by
Napoleon when at Saint Helena-his arm
chair, the sWord-handle offered by the city
of Marseiiles, the jewel-box Of the Empress,
in rosewood, with top of p0Tphyry the
model of a monument he wished to offer
Frederick the Great; his throne according
TO NapOleon-fOur pieces of pine, covered
with blue velvet. and his cylinder desk,
with its delicate carvings and secret draw
ers. This desk was forced open by the
points of bayOnetS, aud above each lock one
sees the mark Of the weapon. Everything
once belonging to Napoleon is ornamented
with sphinx and chimera: even the cradle
Of the King of Rome, that is shown beside
the cradle OF the Duke de Bordeaux (Comte
de Chamb0rdl.
Although the bed of Marie Louise is not
exhibited the Count d'HaussOnville relates
an incident concerning this bed, an incident
that shows US the friyUlity of this woman,
chosen as wife Of the great conqueroT.
Monsieur de Sainte-Aulaire was appointed
60 carry the news Of NapOleOn's abdication
to Marie Louise. She was sitting on the
side of her bed, her bare feet scarcely hid
den under the coverings. NJ. de Sainte-
AulaiTe, embarrassed and sad TO be the
bearer of evil tidings. while announcing the
abdicatlOn, cast down his eyes so as not to
see the surrOw he thought would be depicted
On the face of the Empress. When he had
finished, her only reply was: "YOH We're
looking at my foot. have always been told
it is beautiful.

The unquenchable spirit of arctic quest,
dormant for several years past, is again
awakened and the dawn of another era OF
activity in polar exploration seems at hand.
Four arctic expeditions are preparing to
start within the next twelve months, writes

that he will be drifted over the pole and into

FREAKS OF MEMORY.
The Case of a Young Woman Who Led
Two Separate Lives.

Two Separate Lives.
Three extraordinary instances of what
doctors call periodic amnesia" were re-
lated one night by prominent physician
attached to New York Hospital. The first
was that OF young American woman who
on awakening from protracted sleep lost
memory of all she had before learned Her
memory had been capacieus and we'll stored
with copous stock of ideas. Unexpectedly
she fell into profound sleep, which con-
tinued several hours beyond the ordinary
term. On waking she was discovered to
have lost every trace of acquired knowledge.
All vesiiges, both Of words and things,
were obitersted. By new efforts she again
acquired the art Of spelling, reading writ
ing and calculating, and gradually be-
came acquainted with persons aud objects
like a being for the first time brought
into the world. In these exercises she
made considerable proficiency. After a
few months another fit of somDulency pos
sessed her. On rousing from il she found
herself restored to the state she was in be-
Z fore the first paroxysm, but was wholly
ignorant of every event that had befalen
her afterward. The former condition of her
existence she used TO call the old state, and
the latter the new state. In the Old state
she possessed fine powers of penmanshp.
In the new she wrote q poor. awkward hand
having had neither the time nor the means
to become an expert.-N. Y. Telegram.

HOPE.

After the German of Schiller.
Man never speaks and dreams
or happier future days;
Hopes as a goal that CLEANS
Through an enchanted maze.
The worlds grown old. the worlds grown young,
But man TO Hope has ever chung.
Hope leaves him ne'er in life.
Around the child she hieS:
The young by her are charmed,
Nor with the old she dies;
When ends life's journey and its pain,
Man by the grave finds Hope again.

In the fools brain has place;

The cry is Of our race.
