A CurfouS Onerafinn.

Did you ever see spider change his
skin? 1t is an interesting sight, one
that will repay any one for the time lost
in waiting for the novel event to take
place. When preparing for the change
the spider stops eating for several days,
and makes his preliminary arrangements
by fastening himself with short thread
of web to one of the main lines of his
snare, this to hold him firmly while he
proceeds to updress. First the skin
cracks all around the thorax,. being held
only by the fore part.
Next the abdomen is uncovered, and
then comes the struggle to free the legs.
He works and kicks vigorously, seeming
to have a very hard time of it. Fifteen
minutes of continued perseverance, how
ever, brings him out of his old dress,
the struggle causing him to appear limp
and lifeless for some time after it is fin
ished. Gradually he comes back to life,
brighter and more beautiful than before
the trying ordeal was begun.-St. Louis
Republic.

Avoiding a Blockade,

One wagon was loaded with about six
tons of plate or sheet iron. The other
was held down by several thousand
bricks. One traction car was going up
the avenue and another was crossing it.
Behind that was a horse car. inst then
a bakers wagon cut in on one side, and
yeast nondescript came from the other
corner, when the big ''off" mule in the
iron wagon wagged his left ear and
stopped. The brick cart stopped. So
do did the up car and the cross car, with
the horse car humping up behind it. 1t
was as pretty bit Of confusion as you
have seen on Broadway, with the differ
ence that in cases of emergency there
seems to be about sixteen policemen to
the square inch in Broadway, while
here there is about an inch of policeman
to twenty perches.
Somebody that knew character-a big
red bearded man that had doubtless
sworn army mules into q paroxysm OF
energy-tickled the mules ear with the
point of his umbrella; the mule pranced,
the red bearded man walloped it with
his umbrella twice and the procession
began to move. The blockade was
lifted in ten seconds almost before it
was made.-Pittsburg Bulletin.

A Lake of Pitch.

Greig, of Trinidad, West Indies, sis a
pitch lake. It's at La Brea. 1t covers
about ninety acres, and it is soft enough
to take the impression of your shoes as
you walk over it, but take up bit of it
and strike it sharply and it breaks off
with conchoidal fracture like lump
of anthracite. 1 don't know where it
comes from, but I do know that it's most
awfully hot there. The sur pelts down

What Men May Give to Their Fair Com
panions for birthday Presents.
The platonically friendly man rarely
thinks of jewelry, and 1 am glad of
1t, for even simple ornaments well
bred girl dislikes to accept or refuse, and
there are many other little reme1n brances
she would more gladly welcome. For
instance, leather is an outlet for my
men friends generosity, and among
other things have collection of beau
tlful card cases various persons have
given ME.
They are made of the finest perfumed
and tinted skins, lined with silk, pro-
vided with silver screw pencils, some
times tiny watch, and besides pocket
for cards one for change and little slips
to pull out, on which are daintily etched
calendars for the year. My last acquisi-
ton came from Paris. 1t is gray green
veined leather, highly polished and dot
ted over with tiny bright silver feur-de-
lis. To match it was . scrap of purse
provided with many little hooks and
pockets, and decorated with the silver
flowers.
Another good friend gave me what he
calls my set of books for daily business.
They are three square, gilt edged vol
ames, bound in leather rs fine and sweet
smelling as rose leaves. On the covers
my crest and monogram are deeply
stamped in gilt, and on the title backs
are written respectively accounts, en-
gagements and addresses. Inside the
one for accounts is comfortably ruled off
and noted, so that one knows where
those puzzling lists of figures should go.
engagements" has stated pages on
which one jots down memoranda of
events to come, Addresses" has the
leaves alphabetically arranged, and the
three books are held together by little
strap and catch button like those on
books of prayer and hymnals. A gift of
that kind is in constant use, and one is
always reminded of and pleasantly CRATE
full to the giver.
Another pretty leather toy for wom-
an is a travelling inkstand. They come
in numberless devices, and nothing is
more unique than miniature Glad
stone bag, perfect in detail, even to q
bit of a silver plate, on which ones
initials can be traced; and by pressing a
knob it flies open to reveal the inside
glass bottle.
Then if you are going on journey he
can give you lovely suede leather
writing portfolio or one for holding the
loose photographs to be picked up in
travelling. Some thoughtful souls give
girls leather bound books, on the backs,
stamped in black, the title diary and
her name. A screw pencil slips into
loops, and on the gilt edged leaves she
can jot down heterogeneous mass of
notes and reflections, for reference at
another day.
For journey by rail he will perhaps
buy cut glass lumber, glass being
cleaner than metal cup, set in leath-
er case, and marked with her name and
address, and for sea voyage it's no inn
propriety for a friend to beg her &C

READING GAS METERS.
some Harvard Students Help Pay Their
Expenses in This Manner.

some Harvard Students Help Paw Their
Expenses in This Manner.
One of che pleasantest and best nav
ing occupations in which good MANY
college men engage is reading meters for.
the Boston Gas Light Company. This
company employs about twenty-five stu
dents in that department. The work is
quite simple, each man being given q
district in which it is his duty once a
month to visit every gas meter and note
down the figures as indicated on the
dials. The districts are so divided nm
that it takes each one five or six DAYS to
complete his work. For this the STU
dents are paid Sc per day; consequently
they are able to earn about $12 per month
from reading meters alone.
Where student is practicing the most
r1g1d and severe economy this $3 per
week proves quite welcome assistance
and goes long way toward paying for
their simple necessities The work is
steady the year round, and a college
man IN the employ of the Boston Gas
Llght Company can of q certainty count
upon an income of at least s.. so to $3
per week. The work is considered so
desirable by collegians that there are al
ways on hand a number of applications.
50 that when one drops out theze are
plenty eager to take his place.
The young men thus employed come
from all the surrounding colleges, Har-
ward, tufts, Boston university, Institute
OF Technology, and the Medical School
furnishing about equal numbers. AS a
rule they are of New England birth and
come from good families. An illustra-
ton OF how some young men put them
selves through college is found in the
case OF native of the Granite State
who is attending the Boston university.
His means being very limited he Sc
cured work from the Boston Gas Light
company, the proceeds from which he
used in defraying all his college ex-
penses, such as room rent, books, cloth
ing, etc.
lie at first got his board free by serv-
ing moons as a waiter in restaurant,
and later by acting as commissary for
boarding club. In this way be obtained
all his board, room rent. clothing, books
and all the other things necessary to a
college course by his own individual eff
forts. Another young man pays his
way through the same college with the
money received from working for the
gas company, added to the profits of
large newspaper route which he goes
over every afternoon, and it is said that
he earns from that source even more
than from reading meters. Boston Rec

Avoiding Taxes,

An amusing example of the expedients
resorted to by people to escape taxation
is afforded by prominent farmer of
Lafayette, Ore, who claimed an offset
of $3.50 against his assessment on account
of Indebtedness. Investigation of his
claim by the board of equalization
showed that he owed the $3.50 sure
enough. 1t was due the county for back
taxes, which he had refused to pay
