RemarkabIe EnNS.

Ex-Governor Crittenden and Senator
George G. Vest were sitting in front of the
Midland hotel sunday night talking over
the old days mt Centre college, Danville,
Ky, from which institution both of them
Were graduated. They spoke of the many
young men who had gone forth from the
doors of that university and had grown
famous. the most of them in politics.
Il was back at Danvilie Il few years
ago" said the governor, and had a talk
with old Professor Beatty. / asked him
who was the most remarkable boy he ever
had under him i'll the school!
There we're two remarkable boys he
said One of these was remarkable in his
school life | thought him II marvel and
expected that boy to reach the highest pO-
sition in the land The other was n very
ordinary boy in school. and / did not ex-
pect much from him. That latter boy was
John G. Breckenridge. senator, vice-presi-
dent, and at one time candidate for the
presidency. The marvel IS now teaching
in a deaf and dumb asylum. In your class
of twenty-five boys, governor, l do not
think there was much brilliancy, and did
not think n man in the class would ever
rise very high, and now fifteen of them are
occupying prominent positions. / have
given it up; l can't tell thing about boys
they're a mystery. kansas City Star.

Few people have an idea how thin a
sheet of veneer may be cut with the aid of
improved machinery. There is firm in
Paris which makes business of cutting
veneers, and to such perfection have they
brought it that from single tusk 30
inches long they will cut sheet of ivory
$50 inches long and 20 inches wide. Some
of the sheets of rosewood and mahogany
are only about II fiftieth of inch in
thickness. OF course, they cannot cut all
woods SO thin as this, for the grain of
many varieties is not sufficiently close to
enable such fine work to be done, but the
sheets of lockwood, maple and other woods
nf this character are often SO thin as to be

LunioIatry in China.

In China the practice of luniolatry exists
at the present day and is of very early
origin The chief festival, that of Yue-
ping. or moon cakes, is held during the
eighth mouth of the Chinese year. Per
sons make cakes of various sizes in the
shape of the moon and paint different
figures upon them. Friends and relatives
pay visits to one another, give entertain
ments and present their cakes, after max
ing protestations and pouring out oblations
to the moon.
1t is very remarkable that verse of one
of the Jewish prophets should be explained
by this Chinese custom. The children
gather wood" said the seer, land the
fathers kiudle the fire, and the women
knead their dough TO make cakes to the
queen of decentralization Standard.
