Nh Panners in Servia.

The opinion is generally held that there is nothing entirely perfect in ex- istence. The opinion holds good in Servia's case. It has had more trouble with its reigning princes during this century than almost all the other Flu rcpean countries combined, and yet though the fact is not generally known it is one of the best countries in the world, at least so far as the condition of it's lower classes is concerned. At the last census (estimated in 1S90) the total population was given at 2,096, ,0+3, of which not a single one was a pauper. There is no such thing as workhouse in the country. The inhabitants are thrifty, their tastes run usually to agri- cultural pursuits and even the poorest have some sort of freehold property.

OBSERVATION AT FUNERALS.

Customs That Seem to Be Opposed to the
 Teachings of Christianity.
 It is a sad commentary on Christian community, which takes that distinctive title from a religion whose founder is called the Consoler, because his word bucks the sting from death, that it surrounds death with every circum- stance of woe and gloom, writes George William Curtis, in Harper's Magazine. The distinctive ministry of the faith seems to fall at the very point to which it is especially addressed. The natural Christian tone at the burial of the dead would seem to be the cheer that springs from the thought of immortality-a sublime hope, tender resignation. The Christian thought in that hour should instinctively dwell upon the soul, end not upon the body, and the simplest and most transformations rite of burial would seem to be the most truly Christian. But the ostentation of Christian funerals has become so great that burial reform associations are formed, both in this country and in England, to relieve the poor of the painful and needless cost which, from mistaken respect for the dead. they will not spare so long as ostentation is the custom.

A Woman Miner.

Jefferson county, Mont, has a curios- ity in the shape of a mine not only owned but operated by woman. The mine is situated on Willow creek, and the fortunate proprietress is Mrs. Rob- inson. Although she is seventy-three years of age she has done all the work in developing the property herself, car rying out the ore and waste upon her back. This she has been able to do from the fact that the shaft is on the mountain incline and comparatively easy of ascent. She has been doing this steadily for two years and appears to have lost none of the faith with which she started. If any assay has ever been made of the ore taken out it re- mains a secret with the owner: but the outside world is very willing to believe from her evident faith that she has a bonanza.

DEATH IN GLOVES.
Tho Dyes Used Are Sometimes Poison, as

Tho Dyes Used Are Sometimes Poison, as
 One Sad Case Proves,
 Danger lies hidden in everything, even the dainty little glove of feminine adornment, which seems so very harm less, says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Of course gloves, if they cover the pret- ty hand of some especially pretty wom- an, have always been more or less dan gerous to the heart peace of gallant cavaliers, but now great danger to life itself has been found in pair of black gloves. Not long since the wife of 8 lieutenant in the army purchased a pair of long black gloves, which she wore to ball that evening. When she arrived home she found her hands stained with black dye, and one finger, on which there had been the prick of a needle, was slightly swollen.
 The next day the arm was decidedly swollen and a physician was sum- moned, who ordered poultices, but saw no particular danger in it-especially as the lady was in good spirits. That morning the husband said gOod-by to her cheerfully, but the noon found a telegram summoning him home at once, and he arrived only in time to have his wife die in his arms. The poison from the glove had reached the shoulder and caused her death.

RornltY i.1 Wigs.

It seems that the hair on the heads of royal ladies turns gray quite like that of ordinary mortals. This discovery arises from q discussion over the grand maship of the princess of Wales, whom rybody here has grown accustomed to think of as possessing the trick of perpetual youth. Mir. Labouchere has, however, pointed out that she wears 2 wig, and it appears that this is con- structed by an artist of fabulous crafts manship, whose identity is a profound state secret. The ex-Queen Isabella is said, however, to have obtained his ad- dress by frankly throwing herself on the mercy of the gentle-hearted prin- cess, with the result that her iron-gray crown of once raven hair is now re- placed by jaunty, short, chestnut curls. Moved by envy of these, the present queen regent of Spain, the Austrian Christina, upon whose youth toll and trouble have imposed premature gray ness, is said also to have implored the privilege of sharing the secret, and in consequence, will shortly dazzle Mad rid with child-like locks.

Seeing by Touch.

A Russian physician is credited with the invention of an instrument by which persons totally blind are able to perceive light through the sense of ouch. The instrument converts light avs into a thermo-electro current, which is perceived by the nerves of the skin covering the forehead when the ap- paratus is placed upon that part of the body. The sensations produced by the instrument are thus described by the inventor: ''The presence of an illum- mated object is manifest in the per ceptible field as a sensation of warmth. The degree of sensation of warmth in- creases with the approach of the illum- mating object and vice versa. A move ment of the feeling of warmth toward the right shows that the light has moved to the left, and vice versa. If the warm area moves downward the il- luminating object is moving upward and vice versa"

Women in Eussia.

Russia, so far behind other countries in Europe in other respects, is at all events in advance as regards it's treat ment of women, of which there is just now another illustration. By imperial ullase it has been settled that in future women physicians may practice every where within the Russian empire, pro vided they wear Q badge supplied by the crown, indicative of their calling. Moreover, women are to enjoy special privileges on practicing in female hos pitals, as well as charitable institu- tions, gymnasia and schools for youn 2 women. Finally, the ukase lays down special regulations for the appearance and giving evidence in court of female physicians, so that womanly modesty shall not be outraged by some imperti- Qent crOsS-examiHer.

Cheap Electricity.

Dover, N. H., is one of the few towns in the country that operates its electric street railway system without the aid of steam engine. The Salmon Falls river, which flows near the town, turns a five hundred horsepower water wheel. which supplies power for the dynamos that operate the street line, the electric lights in the place and cleo tricity for several neighboring towns as well. There seems to be no difficulty in obtaining a sufficient amount of pow CT at all seasons of the year.

An Automaton Bootblack.

A machine has been patented for use in the office or the home which will en- able the matutinal shine" to be achieved under new conditions of ease and economy. The machine is so con- structed that the operator can seat him. self in front of it, place his feet on the rests each side of a rotary roller, brush the inner sides at the same time and by alternating the feet from one rest to the other enable the whole surface of the shoe to be effectively polished. Underneath the brush is dePressible footplate set on springs to afford easy position for finishing the top of the shoe. A belt from driving wheel en- gages with Q F-grooved wheel on the shaft of the brush and drives it at 9 multiplied speed. The shoes are cleaned of dust or dried mud very quickly and the backing is applied ia the usual manner by a daubing brush, after which the polishing process is quickly completed.
