How Slamese Ladies Talk to Euro
pean Visitors.
The conversation between native
siamese ladies and European visitors
are described by a French editor in
Siam about as follows.
European Lady-Ah, how glad l
am to see you. I have been longing
to come for some time, but l have so
many visits to make. How is your
dear husband, Mai Bun?
SIamese Lady scratching her bare
legs as a preamble-Very well, l think,
European Lady, astonished-HoW
is that?
Siamese, cooly-He left some days
ago to see his first wife.
European Lady, more and more
astonished-His first wife? Well, and
you?
Siamese Lady-Oh, I am only his
sixth wife.
European Lady-But you have had
three children by Mai Bun?
Siamese Lady, sadly-Four, if you
please; but since the eldest has turned
out badly, we don't speak of her now.
Since her master has gone home she
has run off with his boy,
European Lady-And your second
daughter?
Siamese Lady-We shall give her to
o man for 500, dress and ornaments
included. The bargain has almost
been made.
The conversation continues in that
vein for some time, and the editor is
of the opinion that it is not very
edifying.

THE PERFECT COAL.
A Fuel That Burns Anywhere With

a Fuel That Burns Anywhere WITH
out Chimney or Flue.
Some of the bravest, most in.
gentive minds of the day have long
studied over the question OF a cheap
clean fuel. Now and then one would
think he had succeeded in solving he
question, but there has always been
some point not considered that
would doom it to failure.
But at LAST q process has been
discovered, and the result is perfect
fuel which will burn anywhere, with
out reference to draught. This fuel
is appropriately called carbonite,
being almost pure carbon. 1t sends
forth no gases, and is, therefore safe
and wholesome. Physicians indorse
it, as it is particularly adapted to the
requirements of the sick room, where
an even temperature ID necessary.
Almost every house has some room
that it is impossible to heat, and the
value of small portable heater,
which can be carried from room TO
room, cannot be over-estimated. For
bath rooms, halls, and light house
keeping, too, the comfort of having a
cheap, wholesome and pleasant fire
for cooking and heating, will be great
ly appreciated. Last, but not least,
it is inexpensive, costing but one cent

WHEN THE GEAR TRAVELS,
Then the Russian Empire Is Turned
Upside Down.

Then the Russian Empire Is Turned
Upside Down.
Many troubles and vexations were
caused by visit which was paid the
other day by the car to the military
camp at Izora. Not far from the city
are number of mills, the workme n
at which live on the opposite side OF
the line, going home daily for their
meals. These workmen got to their
work in the morning, but were not al
lowed to cross the line again the whole
day, being obliged to go without their
food or buy it in a public house. Sol
diers lined the track to keep the peo-
pie away. No traffic was allowed.
Even people who had their own farm
lands on the railroad were forbidden
to walk across. The trains from Mos
cow were stopped, and were sent off
all within a quarter of an hour of
each other in the evening. The river
traffic was also entirely suspended.
It can be readily imagined what dis
comfort such suspension of traffic &C.
casioned, and it is only a Russian Of
fetal who can see the good of it. On
the way back the car wanted q cup of
tea, but owing to O sudden jerk of the
railway carriage the tea was upset.
The next morning, so goes the story,
the whole line between St. Petersburg
and Izora was carefully searched by
numbers of men, ordered to find out
what had ierked the czar's tea-cup!
Every time the car goes up and down
to Peterhof the steamers have to be
decorated, traffic is suspended on the
river and occasionally even the load,
ing of steamers is stopped.

Calming the Waves With a Net.

The use OF oil for producing calm
surface on troubled sea has become
we'll known of late years, and many
instances are or record in which it has
been resorted to with marked success.
1t remained, however, for French
man of high degree, Baron d'Ales-
sandro by name, to conceive the
novel idea of putting the waves of an
angry sea under actual mechanical
restraint instead of merely soothing
them as it were by an oleaginous
offering. His invention is simply a.
huge net with meshes about two
inches across; and the action of such
a net when laid upon the water is said
to resemble very closely the effect of
certain species of floating seaweed
which has often been known, when
present in sufficient quantity,
to produce a calm surface
on water otherwise very rough.
1t was this seaweed which suggested
to the Baron his highly original de-
vice. and experiments made with it,
in one case with a net 1000 yards
square-are said to have been so
Satisfactory that the French govern
ment has taken measures for an of
fetal inquiry into the merits of the
invention. Subduing the waves by
this method may be q practicable
scheme; but we have yet to be inform
ed how the net is to be navigated, or
by what means it is kept in harmoni
Gus relations with oars, rudders,
propeller blades, paddle-wheels, fin
keels, etc. There may be an easy
avoidance OF this difficulty, but it Is
at least a point which seems to call
for elucidation

THEIR EYES ARE DEATH.

Women and Rattlesnakes Are a
Fatal Combination,
While the English railroad from
Tucacas to Barquisimeto,in Venezuela
was under construction an English
man holding an important position
in the work was bitten by a rattle
snake. In the midst of the confusion
q native came running in with Il kind
hearted intention of curing the man.

"What the DEVIL" said the English
mans friends. "What for?"
"Their eyes are DEATH" explained
the native. HThe man will not live if
they look upon him."
With that the Englishman turned
the native out Of the house, and the
bitten man himself declared that if
the English doctor could not cure him
no superstltious native could. The
physician came in hot haste and work
ed until the perspiration ran down
his face In little streams. The women
lowered around and did what they
could. In exactly two hours and O
half the man was dead. The kind

On the following day anative labor
er was very badly bitten by rattle

all the women out and sent for herbs
and leaves and such things. They

next day he was back at work as

explain this, and they cannot do so
even to this day.-N. Y. Sun.

III That Was Her Purpose She Acted
Her Part We'll.

Her Part Well.
Occasionally, in the gamut of famil
lar notes which are sounded on the
harp of humanity in this big city,
there rings one that is new-some
marked variation on an old theme.
Beggars are familiar object, and the
direct appeals which are made to SYM
pathy are such palpable attempts o
play on feeling that one becomes hard
ened to them.
A novelty of this kind occurred the
other night as a gentleman was pass
ing through West Twenty-fourth
Street, says the New York World. The
clock was striking midnight. He saw
sitting on the lower steps of IL brown
stone house woman. She was
dressed poorly, she was about go, and
there was the droop OF WEAKNESS in
her spare, bowed figure. A small pa
per box and few papers were resting
on the steps in front of her.
The gentleman stopped and asked:
"Why don't you go home"
"Oh, / just set down to rest myself"
she replied, simply.
"Have you got o. bed to go to? Do
you want any money!" inquired the
gentlemen.
ooh, no! I don't want anything ex-
cept to rest few minutes" she re-
turned in the same weary tone, but
with no air of counting sympathy.
A poor old woman who declined the
offer Of money is a rather surprising
object, especially when her appearance
speaks of poverty and age and weari-
ness. But if she were independent
enough to wish to avoid aims it
seemed as though she had right to
her few moments rest on the hard,
hot steps. So the gentleman passed
on.
But her looks, her tone, the hour OF
the night, all worked on the man. He
felt that he ought to give the woman
something. He went back. She was
still dropping on the steps.
~ think you had better take this, "
he said, putting some money in her
hand.
"Why, what is this!" she exclaimed,
lingering it. ga dollar! You can't af-
ford this. Inever can repay YOU"
But the man was on his way again.
And as he passed along he thought, II
wonder if that could have been new
bluff"
But it probably wasn't. There are
no Bernhardts sitting around on door
steps at night, and the thing was too
beautifully done if it were acting to be
anything short of the highest art.

these. things, Moshka had allowed his
beard to grow, so that even If he and
Rachel had suddenly come face to face 1t IS
extremely probable she would have quite
failed TO recognize him. And so, when he
had thrashed the subject out with himself
his decision was that she should remain in
Ignorance OF his presence there.
Thus the days came and went. When

way to certainty, even though it might
be the certainty OF death. TO BE CoNTINUER
