When to Try on New Shoes.

There is time for everything in this
world, and so it is that the best time to
get fitted to shoes is in the latter part Of
the day. The feet are then at their
maximum of size. Activity naturally
enlarges them. Much standing tends,
also, to enlarge the feet. New shoes
should always be tried on over moder-
ately thick stockings. Then you have a
margin of room by putting on thinner
stocking if the shoes feel i'll at ease

Up to the year 1885 stoves in this
country were made generally in
blast furnaces, directly from the ore,
and were very rude and imperfect
specimens of work. New Jersey and
Pennsylvania furnaces made the
great majority Of them, though a
few We're made in Connecticut and
Vermont.
There is very Gtde literature ex,
tant concerning stoves probably the
most interesting of what there is oc,
curing in DR.. Franklins autobiogra
ply. in which he describes how his
attention was attra ctel to the mat
ter and what he did in the way of
improvements. These were so valu
able, and so thoroughly ingrained in
common sense, that some specimens
of the stoves made on the lines of his
invention are seen in existence today,

the most uncanny kind. Once run

In few minutes the sound of distant
thunder was heard and above it the roar
of hurricane. The old man shook his
head and remarked, THAT bagful was

showed that where peaceful little
brook had flowed was fearful gorge,
choked with timbers and uprooted trees.
The mill was gone, and the big bowlder
which had served as its foundation had
been swept far into the river. This is

Designing silks.

Designing silks is something that EN-.
ploys and pays well for much of the best
artistic talent in France. A pattern thai
takes means fortune to the mill that
makes it. Each house has its own pat
tern makers, and guards jealously the
fruit of their labors. A pattern cannot
be protected by letters patent. A large
buyer may, though, secure from the
maker exclusive control of the sorts he
buys. 1t behooves him to buy carefully,
prayerfully. The verdict of petty jury
is not more uncertain than that of the
silk wearing public.
Shrewd advertising, good display, may
do something toward influencing it, but
the pattern that toward the close of the
season is voluminously in stock is at
once hewn down in price and cast upon
the bargain counter. Often the placard,
Reduced from one dollar" sells the
stuff at nearly the original price; some-
times, though, the world laughs such
lines to orn.--Chieago Tribune.

CHEAP ALUMINIUM.

A Company with New Process Propose.
to Make ~ Cheaper Than Copper.
A corporation chartered under the
laws of Colorado has been formed in this
city with the view to introducing alumin-
ium ut a price far below the present
market value. It is claimed that 1t
has discovered a process whereby alu-
minium can be sold at price less than
one-uuarter of what the present quota
tions are. The company is capitalized at
8, 600, 600. It is said that plant to cost
$500, 600 will be erected, and it is the ex-
pectation of the company to produce
with 5000 horse power engine 5000
pounds of aluminium an hour. OF 30
tons a day. The site of the plant has
not as yet been decided upon, as the
company is desirous of obtaining water
power. owing to the fact that the power
will he the chief item in the expense.
An experimental plant has been erect
ed. where it is claimed several success
ful tests have been made. Edward O.
Droadwell. who discovered the new
process, seems confident of his success.
Ia speaking of his discovery he said
that the two possible ways Of preparing
aluminium was by electrical and chem
ical energy.
"The chemical method said Mr.
Broadwell, "will probably never meet
with success from an economical stand
point, owing to the fact that aluminium
has never been found free in nature.
The chemical method takes advantage
of chemical aflinities, and substances
found in an elemental state necessarily
have weak affinities. The electrical
current furnishes us with a medium
whereby this metal can be extracted
from its ores at any point desired, as
well as with any rapidity The ndvan-
tage we claim lies chiefly in two points:
First, we claim to be able to make one
pound of commercially pure aluminium
with the expenditure of but one cleo
trical horse power. Previous to this i'm
provement twenty-five electrical horse
power has been necessary to accomplish
the same purpose. Secondly, we are
able to take clay of ordinary fair quail
ity and remove from it, efficiently and
cheaply, all iron silicon.
VI blAO bNO dOONO Improvements II
appears that the mode of application Of
the electric current has gone the fur
thermost toward the cheapening of this
process have been working on this
process since 1885, and have tried ex-
perimentally every patented invention
and scientific suggestion that came
under my observation. What at present
has been perfected discovered. and my
claims are based ON a combination of
chemical and electrical methods. We
expect to put aluminium on the market
at price cheaper than copper. 1t is a
metal that can replace copper in almost
every instance, and if it can be produced
for thirty-five cents pound it will be
cheaper than copper at ten cents a
pound, because it is three and half
times lighter, and consequently there
is three and half times more in bulk"

The Deiightful Old Age of Cab.

Anumber of very clever men spend
their days looking for new things to
write novels or short stories about.
There is a fine subject in the sale of
a cab that recently took place in New
York city. 1t was not worn out, but
it was not new. 1t had carried loads
of all sorts at all hours of the day
and night, and now, if we may be-
heve the story which a rival school
tells, it is in the back yard of fash
ionable girls boarding school, and at
certain intervals the daughters of
proud and wealthy parents from the
far west walk out to the cab in line
and take lessons in the art of getting
in and out of a carriage properly.
The girls are most beautiful, also
most graceful and young. 1t is a
fine and quiet old age which that cab

Time IN metropolitan shop.
Being in a hurry the other day and
very much in need of shave. | ven
tured into barber shop near Park
place which was below the level of
the street and lighted by big slabs Of
heavy glas, which extended gcriss
the sidewalk. The chair in wdich |
sat was directly under one ut .hese
glasses, and, with my head thrown
back to be lathered, could see the
shadows OF the crowd as they passed
overhead, while now and then some
one would stop directly on the glass
and give me temporary view of the
soles of his boots.
As the razor's keen blade was play
ing under my chin began to reflect
on what would occur if some very
heavy man should happen 10 step on
some weak part of one of those
glasses and come smashing through
on to me. The possibilities of such
an unpleasant catastrophe were
made more vivid by the fact that the
glass was cracked in half a dozen
places and cracks will occasionally
break.
What if that glass up there should
break1' | suggested to the barber jo-
cosely.
Instead of answering me he stopped
shaving and, turning to colleague
at the end of the room, sang out:

Jim bet me he wouldn't, but
won. Then Jim bet me the same
thing again and he won. Because
the next gent was near sighted and
didn't notice the glass at all. Before
night that day I'd won seven times
from Jim and Jim had won four
times from me, so he paid up the
difference and we started the same
