Advantage of Double Windows

Double windows-that is, windows
with double glass-are an advantage in
either winter OF summer. In the winter
season they pay for themselves in month
or two by the diminution of coal bills,
since with their assistance not more than
half the coal which is usually needed is
required to warm dwelling. They are
just as great an advantage in the summer
season, for not only do they shut out the
dust, but by keeping them closed during
the day the temperature of room may
be kept five or ten degrees below that OF
the air outside.-New York Journal.

Discipline of Chinese Troons.

An English journal describes the man.
euveriug of Chinese troops at review
that was held at Marking last month in
the presence of the Viceroy aud a great
throng of spectators. The drill was en-
tirely on European lines, except that at
certain points during the movement the
bearers of flags leaped out before the
main body of troops, uttering terrific
yells aud brandishing long flagstaffs like
spears, concluding by refolding their
flags around the stalls by dexterous
movement and leaping backward into
the ranks. The drilling was conducted
first by companies and then by regi-
ments, the various bodies being after
ward reformed and put through various
movements together. In the opinion of
one observer, the men did not keep very
evenly in line, but he saw no soldier
losing his place either in quick marching
or the rapid forming of squares and col
umns. The bayonet exercise was also
gone through smartly, and the firing was
we'll up to the average. The men used

To the London Lancet is due the sug-
gestIon that prizes SHOULD he offered for
the best cup OF tea or coffee as much a.
for the best show of fruit and flowers.
Here is an idea for county fairs, cooking
school competitions and mission work.
There is scarcely a hamlet in Switzerland,
France, Austria or Italy where one can.
not find a good cup of coffee. In this
country it is as rare as in England. Yet
there is nothing simpler or easier to
make. Perfect coffee can be made with
an old oyster eau and clean rag or a
horn of druggists filter paper. 1t should
be unnecessary to plead such a reason,
but the uerve-sustaining power of black
coffee, particularly for people who lead
sedentary lives, should make it at least
as accessible as bars and soda fountains.
In fact, as the Lancet says, in urging its
use; "To many OF the daily increasing
number of total abstainers a cup of
really good coffee is perhaps more
wholesome, as well as more palatable,
than too free use of aerated waters;
while many who are moderate drinkers
would prefer coffee in the middle of the
day, or at any otber times when on
duty"

London Public Opinion notes that the
centenary of the discovery of coal gas
has just passed. One hundred years ago
William Murdock, Cornish miner,
studying the coal which he handled
daily, filled an iron kettle with it and
set 1t on the fire, connecting au iron
pipe with the nozzle; when the gas be.
gan to flow from the pipe, he applied
light, and the first gas light sprang into
existence. Wide as his useful invention
has spread, and great as tho blessings
that have resulted from it, how many
people ever heard the narue Of William

LicOrice.

The stick licorice imported from Eu-
rope is rarely pure. Most of it comes
from Spain, where it is adulterated to an
almost incredible degree. The chief
adulterant is a common and cheap gum
obtained from an acacia, which grows in
great abundance in Morocco and along
the west coast of the Sahara aud is called
Barbara gum. But this is not the only
substance used, for starch, flour and
even sand are employed in such quanti-
ties that some of the cheap grades of
licorice have only one-half their weight
composed of the material they purport
to contain, n,-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

A BALL DRESS COVERING.

The latest invention credited to an
American woman is a ball dress COW
ering, intended for those who must
walk to the scene of festivity. This
ingenious woman had her cloak made
in very light silk finished water
proof, like a deep bag gathered into
two bands. This she put on under
the long petticoat and buttoned
round the waist. When the first
band was secured the entire length
was gathered up over the gown and
fastened again at the outside. This
time it covered everything else, in
closed the soft, crushable gown and
secured it from all harm. The top
of the cloak was formed of pretty
cape, like any other macintosh,
with a deep collar to correspond.
The whole affair is on the principle
of the "crawlers" made for little
children.-N. Y. World.

There are several methods pursued
in this city and elsewhere to prevent
idlers lettering on the hand rails OF
some area ways in front of store win

keeper on Walnut street near Elev-

Running along one side of this
store is an iron hand rail, and
when the sun has passed the merid-
ian, so as to cast friendly shadow
thereabouts, this rail is Immediately
taken possession of by a dozen or
more men. Now they will have
something to interest them besides
ogling the passing women.
Carefully coiled around the iron
piping is a strip of gutta percha in
sulator, and over this is wound a
copper wire. About the time the
rail gets good and full a 100000
horse power shock is sent along that
rail, and for few moments it rains
men in that vicinity. Then a shop
boy comes out of the store and picks
the pieces of cloth off the gutta
percha and goes in hiding for other
