A Quaint Old Austrian Custom.

The quaint old Austrian custom of n
bride being cast off, as IL were, by her
countrymen when she takes to herself
foreign husband, was an interesting fea-
ture Mt the recent marriage of the Arch
duchess Louise of Tuscany. The arch
duchess entered the church followed by
a long train of royal and noble Austrian
ladies. They stood in n semicircle
around her until the moment the bride.
groom placed the ring upon her finger;
then they turned and left her, for she
was no longer countrywoman of theirs.
For moment the princess stood alone
unattended; then number of Saxon
ladies ranged themselves behind her
she had become u Saxon.
At the marriage of Marie Antoinette
this custom, which in her case was oh.
served only on the French frontier, had
a pathetic denouement. When the Aus
trian ladies attempted TO leave the new
Dauphiness of France she refused to be
left, and as If foreseeing what her fate
would be in her adopted country clung
to them and entreated them to take her
back to Austria again. Actual force
had to be used to separate her from her
attendants. s.-Paris Letter.

When the Pittsburg Times took
possession of its splendid new building
about six months ago its publisher
promised that the paper would grow IN
excellence in the same proportion as its
quarters had been enlarged. 1t was
then an excellent paper and there was
some curiosity to know whether the
promise would be redeemed. The
publishers have kept their promise.
The Times is marvel of modern
journalism, and the wonder is that II
daily paper so complete in every respect
can be sold for one penny day, or $500
per year, little more than the cost
of frst-clas weekly paper. II you

You Can Have Your own Central"

The latest device to facilitate COM
munication between different depart
ments of large business establishments
is miniature telephone exchange. The
system is installed after exactly the
same principle as an exchange covering
wide city area. Each desk to be put
in connection has its own instrument
which is in principle the same thing as
the full grown telephone, but Is Of min
iature size. The receiving or hand in
strument, however, is not of the long
shape with cylindrical handle, familiar
everywhere nowadays, but is simply a
fiat disk resembling one of the earliest
forms Of telephone, of which few were
seen in the infancy of the invention.
The central office is put in small
closet or inclosure at some convenient
point, and is operated by boy who has
nothing else to do.
There are dozen or so connections,
according to the size of the installation
and the needs of the office. This ex-
change is operated upon precisely the
same principle, though of course on a
smaller scale and with less complication.
as n central Office in city exchange.
The ring of any of the connected tele-
phones causes numbered disk on n
switchboard to fail when the boy makes
the desired connection and releases it
when the talk is finished. In large and
busy establishments, where every de-
partment must be connected with every
other for frequent communication, this
telephone exchange system does away
with large number Of cumbrous speak
ing tubes and insures quicker and
more satisfactory service.-New York

Never consider time wasted that
Is spent in learning rudiments. In
acquiring knowledge of any art or
handicraft the greatest difficulty is
experienced at the beginning, because
our work then possesses little or nothing
of interest. Our first lessons in music
or drawing, or with tools, are very
simple; indeed so simple are they that
we are disposed to undervalue their
Importance. The temptation is to skip
few pages and begin further on in the
book. But such a course is fatal to
success. To learn principles thoroughly
is to succeed. BE content to learn one
thing at time, whether it be to push
plane, square or true, or draw a
line. Whatever you learn, learn 1t
absolutely, without possible question.
This will enable you to advance steadily,
step by step, year after year, and some
day you will wonder why you have been
enabled to distance the geniuses who
once seemed 80 far in advance of you.
Valuable knowledge is acquired only
by intense devotion. You must give
your entire mind TO whatever you
undertake., otherwise you fail, or
succeed indifferently, which is but little
better than failure. Learn, therefore,
to estimate properly the value of what
is called leisure time. There is entirely
too much of this in the world. Do
not mistake our meaning. Rest Is
necessary and play iswell in its place,
but young men who hope to dc
something in life must not expect
to play one-third of their time. Dc
not dress beyond your means; never
spend your last dollar, unless for food
to keep yourself or some one else from
starving. You will always feel bettel
to keep little money in your pocket
At the earliest possible opportunity
save up q few dollars and place the
amount in q savings bank. 1t will serve
IS q magnet to attract other none.

In Midway plaisance, just outside the
exposition grounds, the Worlds Fair
Tower company will erect an odd and
striking structure. The tower will not
be remarkable for its height, for IL is to
be only $50 feet tall, but for the peculiar
method of getting to the top of it. This
tower is something in the form of a
corkscrew, surrounded by uprights of
steel. II consists of winding track
leading to the top, the track being sup
ported by steel columns.
1t is not intended to use elevators in
making the ascent, but instead cars pro.
PEELED by electricity will take the pas
sengers up. Near the top is n landing
place in the form of floor that extends
entirely across the tower, which is 200
feet in diameter. Here passengers will
alight. From this landing place they
can get n fine view of the grounds. The
company has secured its site and will
soon begin work on the tower.-Pitts-

II is claimed that u New YORK

secure the passage of scientific
marriage law to govern marriages
of persons hereditarily tainted with

Few things are more important in a
home than is conversation, yet there are
fewer things to which less deliberate
thought is given. We take great pains
to have our houses well furnished. We
select our carpets and our pictures with
the utmost care: we send our children
to school, that they may become intelli-
gent, we strive to bring into our homes
the best conditions of happiness. But
how often the household is left unframed
and undisiciplined! The good we might
do in our homes with our tongues, If we
would use them to the limits of their
capacity of cheer and helpfulness, it Is
simply impossible to state. Why
should so much power for blessing be
wasted? Especially, why should we
ever pervert the gift and use of our
tongues to do evil, to give pain, to
scatter seeds of bitterness? 1t is sad
thing when child is born dumb but it
were better to be born dumb and never
having the gift of speech than. having
the gift, to employ it in speaking only
sharp, unloving or angry words.

Terms for the Electric Force.

About the middle of the last century,
through the genius of Franklin, light
ming became identified with common or
frictional electricity, but the language
referring to this great natural force con-
tinued to be the same as when men were
ignorant of its nature. They spoke, as
we still speak, of u thunderstorm, and
of thunder and lightning, and thus, as
in other cases, mistook, as we continue
to do, at least in our mode of speech, the
effect for the cause. II is commonly
said that the thunder turns TO sourness
the milk and the beer; that there is
thunder in the air, and the singeing of u
tree by lightning twas due to the thun-
der last night" rs its owner informed
me few weeks ago. Even Scott, in
"The Heart of Midlothian" speaks of
"the shattered and thunder splitter
peaks of Arran."
Our gratitude is due to those gifted
men who have been able to divest
natural phenomena of the ignorance
and superstition that formerly encum-
bered them, and so to bring them under
the dominion Of scientific laws which
appeal to the good sense of all students
of nature.-Notes and Queries.
