THE SECRET SOCIETIES
MASONRY.

There was large gathering Of COM
panlonS az the last cOnvocatiOn OF
Wheeling Union Chapter No. 1, and
they were on hand TO do some labor, but
unfortunately the ouaries did not de-
velop the ashlers, and in consequence
work was deferred til next meeting.
Ohio Lodge No. 1 met on Monday
evening with a good attendance OF
brethren present. Work was had In the
Third, and Il was we'll and effactuallyt
done, aud an impress was made on the
candidate 10 che good work which he
will not forget soon. WOrshipful Ross
occupied the East and superintendent
the craft during labor.
Nelson Lodge No. 30 had a rousing
turnout on Thursday evening with
quite a number Of visitors from Ohio
City Lodge, Martins Ferry, and who
were somewhat disappointed in the
failure Of the candidate to show up, and
which delayed the work to q subsequent
meeting.
Wheeling Commandery No. 1 will
meet on Monday evening, when work Is
expected in the orders.
On Monday evening Wheeling Union
Chapter, No. /, held its regular meet
ing, with a very full attendance OF its
companions, and the routine business
presented at that time was Of interest to
every companion Of the Chapter and
they went to work at it with business
like vim. Work was to be had, but the
Quarrles failed to show up the fine
specimens ouarried, and will be deferred
until next cOnvOcatiOn.
The work for next week is Ohio
Lodge, No. 1, on Monday evening; Nell
son Lodge on Thursday evening, and as
there are rough and polished ashlers
awaiting the chisel OF Masonic educa-
ton, we can expect some work in the
several grades at that time.

The Value Of Snow,

A goodsized snowstorm in any city
means many an additional pair O,
shoes, a prescription for the sick
child or material addition to the
frugal meal, even when it does not
represent the difference between some
sort of a meal and none at all. 1t
follows, therefore, that a failure o.
snow or a delay in it's coming has a
direct effect upon the volume of trade.
for the poor spend their money as
soon as they get it, of sheer necessity,
and their small sums swelled into q
large total, help to keep the machinery
of business in motion. In warmer
chimes, where no snow falls, life de.
mands fewer necessities, and neither
rich nor poor understand the eco
nomic value of the snow shovel, but in
the North, where cold bites and
hunger pinches, a heavy snowfall
brings many blessings with it.

JapaneSe Carving.

Japanese art is supremein wool and
ivory carving. Sir Edwin Arnold de.
clares, in "Seas and Lands" there is
nothing known to him in Europe that
comes near what Japanese workmen
can achieve. A specimen of ivory
carving was shown to him, which rep
resented a bag OF rice with two OF
three dozen rats in and upon it.
Every rat was as individual in
character, position and action, as il
a special portrait had been taken Of
him; and the web of the bag, the glis.
tening grains of rice, and the sleek fur
of the rodent could not have been
better expressed in painting.
At all art store in Yokohama he ex.
amined q piece OF wood carving, rep
resenting two life-sized wrestlers
struggling in the ring. Every muscle
and every vain were delineated, every
tendon and ligament were anatomi'
cally perfect.
it drew a constant crowd, and q
policeman informed the proprietor Of
the store that, if he intended to con
tinue the wrestling on his premises he
must engage posse of policemen to
restrain the crowd. He was invited
into the store, and melted into smiles
when he saw that the wrestlers were
carvings in wood.

Disappointing.

Almost every little community con.
tains at least one person, usually a
woman, who appears to take a NOR
bid pleasure in attending funerals,
She goes whether OF lot she was in
innate, or even acquainted with the
deceased person. 1t is enough for her
that there is to be a funeral.
Such a woman lives in d little Con-
necticut town. She is known to all
her neighbors as Aunt Hetty. In
most respects she is like good many
other harmless and well-meaning po-
pie; but those who know her we'll say
that she counts that week as lost II
which there has been no funeral to at
tend.
She had just returned from one the
other day, looking rather downcast
when neighbor met her.
"Been to the funeral, Aunt Hetty?'
eyes, went"
"She wasn't a particular friend o.
yours, was she?"
ooh no, never spoke to her In my
lise."
Thought she might be a friend, yor
looked so sad over it.
"Well, truth is, couldn't seem tc
enjoy it somehow; I don't know lust
what the trouble was, but there didn'1
seem to be no life TO it,"

Expensive, After All.

It makes little or no difference how
low the price OF a thing may be, if one
has no money with which to buy it
Many me er-do-weel," searching for
a land where he may live in luxury
for almost nothing, has discovered
that there is sure to be some obstacle
to his success in every country to
which he goes. II can tell you" said
a recently returned traveller, who was
clad much after the fashion OF Mr.
Richard Swiveller, III tell you, Argen
tina's the place to go! Everything is
dirt cheap there! Why, you can get a
splendid fat turkey for twenty cents!''
sWhew!' said one of the Interested.

his friend meditatively.. "Well, then,
since you'd have stayed, probably
YOU can tell me how I was to get

Unbreakable Glass.

OF the various attempts to replace
our present brittle glass by O. similar
but flexible and resisting body, that
OF the Austrian engineer, Herr Eek
stein, appears, says "Iron," to be
worthy OF record. His process is as
follows:-From four to eight parts OF
collodion wool are dissolved in about
L per cent in weight of ether or alco-
hol; this solution is intimately mixed
with from 2 to 4 per cent of castor
oil, or other non.reslnous oil, and
from 4 to 10 per cent OF resin or Cana
da balsam. This mixture is spread on
a glass plate and dried under the
influence of current of hot air OF
about so deg. Cent, by which it
is transformed in a comparatively
short space OF time into transparent
hard vitreous plate, the thickness Of
which can be regulated as desired. The
material thus obtained is said to
resist the action of salts, alkalies, and
acids, and, besides being transparent,
is odorless. The advantages which it
possesses over glass are that it is fex-
ible and almost unbreakable. Its in
fammability is much inferior to that
OF other collodion combinations, and
it can be further reduced by the addi-
tion of magnesium chloride, while an
admixture OF zinc-white produces an
ivory appearance. Any color or
shade may be impaired to the new
glass.

ORIGIN OF PET NAMES.
Examinations Of .Fondness Used
Among the Different Nations.

Among the Oifferent Nations.
The use of pet names is peculiar
neither to this century nor the last.
The favorite diminutive at present is
"ey" or "ie" as seen in Charlie,
George, Maupie, and so on. In earli-
err times the popular Examinations
were in, on, ct, kin, cock, and others.
Emma was shortened to EN-, and for
loves sake it became Emmot or En-
met. Matilda was first Til, then Til
lot. Bartholomew was Bart, then
Little Bart or Bartlett.
The popularity OF these pet names
is seen in the great number of
them which eventually became family
names. The Tillotsons, the Emmets,
the Bartletts, are numerous in Eng
land and America, although few dream
that these names were originally pet
and not surnames. Before the
use OF family names it was
often necessary to use the dininutive
forms, from the fact that the same
name wasnot infrequently given to
two or three children of the same
family. The origin OF the surname
Robinson is the pet name Robin, or
little Robert. Rawlin found it's sur
name in Rawlins; and Rawlinson was
originally little Ralph and Dickens lit
tie Dick AS Germans of to-day add
chen to children's names as a term OF
endearmeut, making Anna Annachen,
Elisabeth Lischen, SO our English an
cestry used the equivalent kin. Wat
kin was little Walter, Simkin little
Simeon, Perkin little Peter; Wilcox
was once Wilcox, or, as we would
say, Willie. Hitchcock or Hiscock or
HickoS was Isaac the younger. Ter
limitations in kin and cock were in use
among the lower orders-that is,
among the Anglo-Saxons-while the
diminutives, in, on, and ct, were more
aristocratic and used by families OF
Mormon blood.
So frequent was the use of diminu-
tives on account OF the limited num-
Der of names that Bardsley called the
period from the Norman conquest to
the reformation the "pet name
epoch in England. Names of the
favorite saints were repeated over
and over, John, Thomas, Emma and
Matilda being among those most
freely used.
AS showing to what base uses
names may come at last, we have the
French word Guillaume-derived
from gid helm, or golden helmet
twice thrown into pet form, becoming
Guillotin, or Little William Then it
became a surname and the family
name OF the doctor who invented, OF
rather adapted the deadly machine
which bears his name. So from a
noble defender William became an
Internal persecutor.-Bow Bells.

Natural DiStrust.

It is an old story of the man who
said, when he was offered tea, during
his last visit to an army encampment,
"If my last cup was tea, I'll take cot.
fee; if it was coffee, I'll take tea," but
it may still serve to illustrate practi.
cal wisdom as we'll as impudence. An
other learner from experience figures
in the following anecdote:
Two amateur sportsman had gone
out together for a days shooting and
began operations to load their guns
"See here" said one OF them, paus'
ing in the act, (which do you put IN
first, powder or shot?"
"Why, powder of course" returned
his friend.
ooh, do you?" was the reply.
Then don't.

rHINGS THE QUEEN CAN'T %
Social Privileges She Is Deprived
C1bY Her Peculiar Position.

Social Privileges She Is Deprived
C4by Her Peculiar Position.
Qr\a Victoria not being bor.
queen, probably learned to read just
ike other persons. But after she be-
anne afflicted with royalty, she found
shat II queen is not allowed to have
great many privileges that the hum
blest of her subjects can boast. For
instance, she isn't allowed to handle
newspaper of any kind nor q maga-
zine, nor a letter from any person ex-
cept from her own family, and no
member of the royal family or house
hold is allowed to speak to her OF any
piece of news in any publication.
All the information the Queen is
permitted to have must first he strain
ed through the intellect Of a man
whose business it is to cut out from
the papers each day what he thinks
she would like to know. These scraps
he fastens on q silk sheet with gold
fringe all about it, and presents it to
her unfortunate majesty. This silken
sheet with gold fringe is imperative
for all communications to the Queen.
Any one who wishes to send the Queen
- personal poem or a communication
OF any kind, except q personal letter,
which the poor lady isn't allowed to
have at all, must have it printed in
gilt letters on one OF these silk sheets
with a gold fringe, just so many inch
es wide and no wider, all about it.
These gold trimmings will be returned
to him in time, as they are expensive,
and the Queen is kindly and thrifty,
but for the Queens presence they are
Imperative.
The deprivations OF the Queens
life are patheticaily Illustrated by an
incident which occurred not long ago.
An American lady sent her Majesty
an immense collection OF the flowers
OF this country, pressed and mounted.
The Queen was delighted with the
collection and kept it for three
months, turning over the leaves fire.
quently, with great delight. At the
end OF that time, which was as long
as she was allowed by court etiquette
to keep it, she had it sent back with
letter saying that, being Queen Of
England, she was not allowed to have
any gifts, and that she parted from
it with deep regret.
This passes for good nursery gov
eminent in this country, but would
hardly be accepted among adults, let
alone Queens.
