Particles in the Air.

In the air there is dust that has

transplanted from afar by the winds
there is powdery matter that has
been elected from the interior of the

$1,000 Year for remembering Names

To remember peoples names is a
great thing. I know a man in a great
wholesale establishment in Chicago
who gets $1,000 year just for re-
membering names. His business is
to speak to every one who comes in
by name and to introduce the Gus
toner to the clerk of the department
sought. If he does not introduce the
person to the clerk by name, the
clerk is expected to find out the name
and communicate it quietly to the
gentleman near the door, who bids
him or her goodby by name. This
always fatters people and they come
back again. Washington Star.

Pipes and Tobacco.

Collectors of tobacco pipes, of
whom there are no small number.
seldom experience much satisfaction
or pleasure in smoking the curious
and unfamiliar pipes in their collec-
tions. 1T is necessary to have not
only the pipe, but the appropriate
tobacco, and to be familiar with the
manner of smoking in order to sue
cessfully carry on experiments of
this kind.
Even the familiar porcelain pipe of
the German student, which people
buy for its associations or the beauty
of its painted bowl, is seldom under
stood, and few know that the ashes
should be allowed to remain in the
bowl in order to make it smokable,
nor that the coarse, common tobacco
called No. 6" is appropriate for it..
The Turkish and Persian water pipes
too, are difficult to manage. They
require the fragrant yellow tambake.g
that must be.soaked in water, wrung
out and put in the bowl with live
coal or pastelle Of camel's dung on
top. This pipe is now RELOCATED to
the elders, for all the younger gener-
alton in western Asia smoke cigar
cites. =
In eastern Asia, where the pipes
retain the small bowl, like those orig
inally introduced from Europe, fine
cut tobacco is generally smoked.
Japan and China both use this finely
cut Observation-Disclosures Ledger.

What a s'sea Horse. I,ooks ike.

The genuine sea horse or hippo,
campus is veritable curiosity. tits
an osseous or bony fish, with tufted
gills like those of the pike family.
The average length of specimens
found on the east coast of the United
States is about five inches, those in
the Gulf of Mexico often growing to
be eight to ten inches in length. The
snout of the creature is rather elon-
gated, and the head highly elevated
posteriorly. The ears, which are
simply aspiny coronet on. the occiput,
help to give the little animals head
and neck striking resem blance to
those of horse. The eyes are very
prominent, and can be moved~inde-
pendently ofeaoh other and in oppo-
site directions. a. @& ~
This little fish horse suspends itself
to seaweed and other marine objects
by means of a long, slender, whip
like tail which is without fms. They
have but three fins altogether, two
pectoral Gust behind the ears and
one dorsal. The mouth terminates
''suckerlike' and is without teeth.
They swim vertically, the tail always
ready to wind about any object with
which they may come in contact.
The dried specimens of this marine
oddity convey but a slight idea of the
real looks of the creature, its appear

Volcanoes have been in existence during
every principal geologic age, at least az far
back as the lower silurian. the rocks of
which age are very nearly the oldest IN ex-
istence. New volcanoes in later years have
appeared above the surface of the sea.
Thele are three classes of volcanoes, the
active, dormant and extinct, but these
GLASSES are likely to overlap. With one or
two possible, but somewhat doubtful ex-
oeptions, the erurtion of volcanoes occur at
no regular periods. Piior to the me,nora-
BILE outbreak Of Vesuvlus in the year 70 even
tradition had not handed down An account
of an eruption. Since the above date Vesu-
vius has been intsrmittently active, but
from the year 1900 to 1851 the crater wss 80

growth. In 1851 an eruption occurred, ex-
oeeded in violence only by that of the wear
