Terrified Walls of Houses.

A gentleman who has just returned from visit to the mountains in the vicinity of Crawfsh Springs, now Chickamauga and who has devoted considerable time to the study of arch zoology. has much to say of tho won- ders and beauties of that section.
 Few are aware" says be- that high up on Pigeon Mountain. which joins Lookout in making McLemore's Cove, there is strange and beautiful formation of stone and rock strikingly resembling ancient buildings in process of decay. Many perfect petrifactions are found on the mountains, and one can readily imagine that the stony. rigid remains. which the credulous mountaineers call the Rock City. are the petriiied walls Of houses which once echoed to the voice and tread of man-the simulacher of ruined city. !"

VIaryels of Brussels.

The finest of all lace is Brussels. Belgium is the lace- makers chosen home. One-fortieth of the whole population is engaged in it. The gov ernment supports 900 lace schools, to which children are sent as young as 5 years. By the time they are 10 they are self-supporting. Brussels is a pillow lace. Indeed Barbara Littman, the inventor of pillow lace, lived and died there.
 The pattern, drawn upon parchment, is fixed firmly to the pillow, pins are stuck along the outlines and to them the lace is woven by crossing and twisting the threads, each of which ends ill a bobbin. Lace two inches wide requires two or three hundred bobbins. A piece six inches has some thread is hand-spun from tho best Brabant flax in damp, dark cellars whose one ray of light falls on the spinner's hand
 Naturally spinning is very unhealthy, and experts get high wages. The best yarn from a single pound of flax fetches over $3, 000. For filling flowers and leaves fine soft cotton is used. Grounds, too, arc often made of 1t. Elaborate patterns are made in sections and joined together by the most skillful workers of all As the lace is never washed before 1t is sold the most exquisite neatness is requisite in everything connected with 1t. Still. as months are consumed in making very hand some pieces the work turns dingy in spite of the lace-worker's best efforts. To remedy that it is sometimes dusted with white lead in powder. and turns dark at contact with gas or sulphur in a way to exasperate the wearer.

He was Bath. Me, hackman. so the Enterprise says and he had Cam adian quarter worth only 20 cents in Bath. that he wanted to dispose of. So one dark night, when an old lady handed him half a dollar, he gave her the Canadian quarter in change, and, instead of feeling ashamed of himself chuckled over the transaction-thatis is, he chuckled until he pulled - the coin the lady had given him -..i by the light of a lamp discovered that it was Canadian half dollar.

But Claudia was sympathetic when VIC arrived at Axetown East. In a short fortnight Mir. Tudor had made great strides toward friendship with all at home. He had found favor with father and the boys; his hotel was com fortless, and he deserted 1t frequently. He came and went at all hours. laughed with the boys and talked sensibly like an old friend with father.
 It was still a warm summer evening day or two after our arrival. We were in the drawing-room down stairs, and the French windows were open wide. Father was showing Mir. Tudor some views of places abroad where he had been stationed at different times Suddenly, on the still air. came a voice from the garden. Claudia was coming up the path with my brother George

He will spoil her holidays We try to praise him sometimes, but as for Cis she will never say anything good of him. She really dislikes him now.m
