IA 6 Monster & Evergreen 4 NurSeryat

The annual catalogue of the Evergreen
Nurseries, of Evergreen, Wis, has been
issued, and this office has been favored
with a copy. They list fully 800 varieties
of coniferous evergreens. Some of them
are very strange and unique in form and
habit of growth. They have been to
great pains and expense to secure seeds
and plants of evergreens found native in
all parts of the earth. If a man wants
evergreens cheap but good, for screens,
groves, windbreaks, or hedges, there is
no better place to go in America. If a
man is fond of the marvellous, strange and
curions forms in nature, there is no other
place in this country where his fancy can
be satisfied with rare and beautiful ever
greens.
The nurseries are growing the plants
in immense numbers, planting the seeds
by the ton. They imported from one
seed house in Germany last season 2300
pounds besides all they gathered in this
country, getting large quantities from
Colorado, California, Washington, and
all the western states and territories. 1t
is well worth any mans while to send for
their lists.

Antiquity of a Slang Expression.

In the book of job appears the sentence,
Il am escaped with the skin of my teeth, +"
which is modernized 'by the skin of my
teeth" and gives the idea of narrow es-
cape, one SO close as to be just by the thick
ness Of the skin on the teeth, which is SO
thin that no microscopic has yet been able
to find it. ITO cast in the teeth" means
to throw defiant approaches or insults
spitefully, as one would cast a stone at the
exposed teeth of a snarling dog Tooth

full of frenzied fury, typifed by biting and

Monuments to the Living.

Visitors to Woodlawn cemetery are
struck by the fact hat scores of living peo-
pie have caused to De erected in that great
city of the dead monuments to themselves
which will probably outlast the builders
hundreds of years. Family monuments have
of course been common for years, and these
also abound in beautiful Woodlawn, but
the stones erected to the memory of people
now in the flesh is fashion which prevails
largely in this cemetery, In beautiful
Linden plot granite shaft bears the name,
Pauline Hall" Thus the former Casino
favorite prepares for posterity, when she
shall have joined the silent majority. Aus
tin Corbin, the railroad magnate, is still
very robust, but he has also erected solid
monument to himself. Others who have
taken Time by the forelock are William C.
Whitney and Joseph H. Choate. In all
nearly thirty monuments are waiting to
mark the last resting place of men and
women who still enj joy life in this bustling
world. York Advertiser

Light Food Before Retiring.

The value of light cruel or other food
taken just before retiring is not generally
appreciated. People who enjoy a night
supper are quite apt to do it surreptitiously
as if they were doing something which was
not quite proper from a hygienic point of
view. AS matter of fact, however, when
the powers of the body have been taxed be-
yond the usual hours of retiring food is
necessary. 1t should not be heavy food, of
course, such as will induce restlessness or
a leaden sleep full of unhappy nightmares,
but light, wholesome food taken just be-
fore retiring. This is very excellent
thing for women of delicate, nervous
physique, who are inclined to sleeplessness.
A bowl of oatmeal cruel, delicately made
of half milk, glass of hot milk or of
warm clam broth, or of almost any other
light broth, will often bring night of
sleep and sweet dreams when nothing else
will A great many people who eat spar
ingly at their meals require such food as
this before they retire, and require also a
cup Of coffee before they rise in the morn
ing, and such extra food will do more to
build up their strength than dozen tonics.
great deal of sleeplessness is said by
physicians to be caused by an unconscious
craving for food, which light broth at
bedtime will satisfy.-New York Tribune

AbOut Allows.

The word ''alloy" is employed in chem
istry to signify the combination of one
metal with one or more others. For in.
stance, brass is an alloy of copper and
zinc; bronze is an alloy of copper and tin
German silver is an alloy of copper, zinc
and nickel; pewter is an alloy of lead and
tin, etc. These alloys have given a great
deal of difficulty to scientific chemists, and
even now it is not certain whether they
are definite chemical compounds or mere
mixtures.
In some cases, indeed, they appear to be
fixed compounds-that is, always present
ing the same composition, or containing
the same weight of each of the metals: and
some can be obtained in the form of crys
tails, which invariably present the same
composition. But when we come to con.
slider the alloys of copper and zinc, as well
as those of copper and tin, we find that
there exist a considerable number of them
containing variable amounts of each
metal. and differing very widely in their
properties.
For instance, an alloy of forty parts OF
zinc with sixty parts of copper represents
a kind of brass which will very well serve
certain purposes in the arts, such as the
sbeathing of ships; but it will not answer
for other purposes which require a brass
containing, say, twenty-eight parts of zinc
and seventy-two parts of copper.-Cham-
bers' Journal.

into the arms of the poverty mite.
The poor woman uttered feeble protest
and the rich mamma was about to inter

aristocrat exclaimed, Now, mamma, you

and then we each will have done good

No-but we do burden them with taxes

pensioners exceeds by over 325. 600 the
great standing army of 100000 in Ger

from the treasury one in twelve of the
entire voting population north and

months of last yesr-twenty-seven years
after the close of the wsr-255, 44S names,
which is 10000 more than the total Un-

than double the entire expense of the
government in the year before the war .

Naturally Astonish ed.

This story is told of II memorable contest
in the Massachusetts legislature. known as
the Beverly division, in 1856 The ques-
ton was all absorbing. The gallery was
crowded and the fair sex were in a large
majority. There had been great deal OF
talk about the money which had been
spent by interested parties.
Herbert +. Stevens, now assistant clerk
IN the senate, was then a page. He had a
large amount of money in his hands, pass

the month. There was quiet in the gal

enough to be heard by everybody, Why, |
didn't know they bribed them so openly"
