AN OUTING CoAr.--At the seaside and in
the mountains, the evenings are very apt to
be quite cool and hence arises the necessity
of being muffled up at times. For this pur-
pose nothing can be more practical ard
more stylish than the paletot sacque such as
is shown in the illustration. 1t looks very
well in gray blue cloth with large, mother

Over these full blonscs the sleeveless Elton

requisite touch Of color. In some cases, the
Eton jacket is made with vest but this Is
matter Of taste Yoked bodices too, are

you fasten up again the figure with fancy

An Amateur Diamond Cutter.

A correspondent tells of an anus
ing incident that occurred on a
train that was crossing the Rocky
mountains: A travelling peddler
undertook in the cars to sell a large
diamond" ring to a miner, who
had his pile.
''Humph, said the miner, after crit
ically examining the ring, "they've
got common stones up in the dig
gins where I've been that'll cut that
diamond all to pieces"
eff you'll find a piece Of stone
that will cut that diamond I'll give
it to you," replied the peddler.
Call right" said the miner; s'if l
can't cut that diamond with a stone
I'll buy it of you."
Whereupon the miner took the
ring in his hand and pulled from
his vest pocket piece of brown
looking stone, similar to a bit of
dark freestone, except that the grain
was very fine, and with this he pro-
ceeded coolly to cutan scratch the
diamond with several ugly look
ing gashes. A group of passengers
that had gathered about the miner
we're amazed, but while they smiled
the peddler with his diamond"
withdrew discounted.
"That little piece of brown stone, "
explained the miner, lis q piece OF
corundum that I got in the Rocky
mountains, and it is the best dia-
mond tester in the world. 1t won't
scar genuine diamond, but it will
everlastingly cut up pieces OF glass
or quartz. ."zJeWelers' Review.

Two Boys.

The late Ex-Governor w. w. Hol-
den started in life as q printers
devil. One cold morning the boy
was delivering papers, and at rich
mans mansion he was invited into
the dining-room to warm himself
by the fire. A handsome college
boy on q vieit to the family was
sitting at the table, and when the
little devil left this comfortable and
happy youth handed him buttered
biscuit. Young Holden walked oil
eating his biscuit, envying the col
llege student and feeling very blue.
Time brings wonderful changes.
Thirty years later the boy who gave
the biscuit was defeated for Gov
ernor by the barefooted lad who
received it it!-Raleigh Chronicle.

to the end. The right foot resem-
bles a web-footed turtle, and the
left a hogs foot, covered with hair.
The freak has virtually no legs.
When discovered he was scantily
clothed, but did not seem to mind
the cold. How long he had lived
in his "dug-out" on the mountain
top and whence he came nobody
knows. Hermit-like as he has lived
he was perfectly tame and rational
when found, and he gladly accepted
the invitation to abandon his home
and accompany his discoverers to
Fredericksburg, where ne was clothed
and fed. On learning OF the exist
ence of this marvellous creature,
Manager Bradenburg of the Ninth
and Arch Museum dispatched one
of his agents to Fredericksburg, who
made the necessary arrangements
to place "Nicodemus" OH exhibit
tion at the museum in this city. On
Thursday last he was examined by
a staff of Government physicians in
Observation-Disclosures Press.

A Theory on Consumption.

The accumulation of such evil
dence is becoming so great that
every physician of experience feels
forced to share the belief of the
communicability of consumption.
There are also few physicians who
have not had one or more cases that
for years they thought had been
contracted in this way. How else
than by communication are we to
account for the rapid spread of con-
sumption among savage nations,
where this disease was unknown
before civilized people began to
visit them? This is true of our
own American Indians, the inhab-
itants of Central Africa and MANY
other countries. Intermarrying, or
any other condition which might
make hereditary transmission a
possible cause certainly could not
account for it's rapid progress. Be-
sides, some Of the best observers
and Investigators believe that con-
sumption is not hereditary, and
there is much positive evidence in
favor of this view. With such ev--
idence of the possibility of 'inhal-
ing the bacilli the question would
naturally be asked: How do the
bacili get into the atmosphere.
when they are not founhsih the
breath of sufferers of this disease?
We know positively that in these
cases bacilli are present in the mu-
Gus which it raised after coughing.
In its moist condition it is impos-
sible for it to be inhaled, but when
it dries and becomes dust it is blown
about, and it is in this form. that II
becomes dangerous.-Dr. w. H
Chappell in N. American Review.

Brides and Bridegrooms.

It is a surprising fact that the
bride is almost always the one to
bear the trials and embarrassments
of the wedding ceremony with the
most fortitude and sang-froid, de-
spite the fact that she invariably is
the focus for every eye. A shy, mod
est-looking little creature, robed iE
white, will stand perfectly erect,
looking the minister calmly and
squarely in the eye, without for an
instant losing her self-poise, while
the big. blunt six-footer of a bride
groom by her side is pale and ner-
vous and trembling.
The bride very seldom makes any
mistake, either during the ceremony
or at the still more trying reception
afterward, while the man is almost
sure to put both feet in it, and then
founder about in despair until bis
better-half comes to his rescue and
gives him the first chance to appre-
ciate the advantages of having some
one to take care of him.
During the ceremony the chances
for the groom TO make mistakes
are not many. The most common
one is for him to get names mixed
up. At a recent wedding at the
most Fashionable church the groom
calmly announced, II, Annie, take
thee, Harold. to be my lawful we'd
ded wife" The bridal party, who
were the only ones who heard i,
were convulsed, and even the stall
wart young minister could not re-
press a twinkle in his eyes, S.
Another mnch-rattled young man
when asked if he took the youne
woman to be his welded wife, stared
nonplussed at the minister fol

People of the Earth.

Exactly how many people there
are in the world it is impossible tt
say since no census is taken of many
populous countries, like China
while the number of people who live
in the jungles of Africa can only
be gussed at.
AS long ago as 1866, Benin, a lead
ing German authority, estimated the
population of the earth at AGO..
100000.
In 1880 the same authority set
the figures at about $4,000 900
more. He did not base the new
estimates on the natural increase of
the people Of the world, but ex-
planned that more accurate figures
anu estimates Lad enabled him to
guess more closely.
Two years later Mr.. Benin esti-
mated the earth's population at
22,OOO,OOO less than in 1880, the
decrease being accounted for by the
fact that new Investigations had
compelled the reduction of the esti-
mated population of China from
something over 100000 to $780,
100000.
1t is believed that the world S
population is increasing at the rate
of nearly 100000 a year.
The most ropulous Continent is
Asia, which contains two countries
China and India-whose swarm
ing millions outnumber the people
of all the other countries of the
Continent.
The most densely peopled Cont
nent is, of course, Europe. The
number of people i'll Europe il
known with a great degree of accu.
racy. There are about $50, 900
and the Continent which accommo-
dates all these people is SO small
that there are upon it an average Of
ninety-three people to the square
mile.
The people upon the two Cont
nents of North and South America,
without the Arctic regions, are less
