The Art Of Cutting Clothes.

When we read and listen TO discus
siOns of comparative value of long or
shoulder measures with those that are
short and sectional, in which one or the
other is denounced as unscientifc or
impracticable, our mind Immediately
dwells for moment on a proverbially
stupid animal with long ears. The fact
is that many cutters are successful
with the first, and just about as many
with the others.
Every man cannot become a good cut
ter. Some do not seem to catch on,
as the saying is, and others who seem to
do 50 are never able to produce any
other results than such as make old
heads swim.
Natural ability and educational ad-
vantages generally insure success, but
years of work ON the board the ability
even to make a good coat, is no guar
antee of the possession of that mental
equipment which is necessary to make "a
good cutter,
When it requires hours of labor to fix
in some ones mind the difference be-
tween one-third and one-quarter of a
size, how can such one expect to sue
coed as a CUTTER
When student is able to think quick
ly and clearly we confidently expect
him to become skillful cutter. even
though he cannot make a coat so well as
many others. The fact is that to be
successful in garment cutting, as in any
other trade or profession, man must
have brains. know how to use them and
use them as he should.-Tailoring Jour

For hundreds of miles in the vicinity
of Lake Austin, western Australia, there
has been such prolonged drouth that
crops of al kinds have suffered. A
number of farmers combined to bear the
expense Of rain producing experiments
and e600 was subscribed. Walter Muir
Gibson, chemist, was engaged, and
after fortnight's preparation a series of
explosions were followed in less than
four hours by drenching showers.
The atmospheric conclusions not only
produced copious falls of rain, but had
an utterly unexpected but equally desir.
able effect upon the rabbits. The thun.
dering explosions killed tens of thou.

preyed upon the crops.-Yankee Blade

His Simple Sparrow Trap.

The crusade against the English spar
row is developing a marvellous amount
Of ingenuity. A cheap, effective and
unerring method of killing the birds is
the essential requisite to success in the
new industry.
One little fellow on the south side has
solved the problem, and has already
brought in over 100 heads. He explained
his system and the comparative merits
of 1t and other systems to Captain Hay
wood
You see, he said, Il didn't have no
gun nor no money TO buy one, an if
had the pliceman'd arrested me for
shootin, An me mother wouldn't let me
poison 'em. She said it was cruel Any
way, you couldn't never tell whether
you got all the sparrers you poisoned.
So Just got up scheme of my own,
me an another boy that lives on the
street do.
I'VE made a lot Of paper tunnels out
of writin paper bout half as long as
lead pencil, the top of EN- just big
enough for a sparrer to get his head in.
We put birdseed in the bottom of 'em
an set 'em up in the alley back Of our
house, where lots Of the sparrers come.
The sparrers come peckin around an
find the birdseed in EN-, an stick their
heads in to get it. Well. it's down at
the bottom, you know, an so they just
push their heads right in. an then the
tunnels stick TO their heads They can't
fly, cause they can't see, an b'sides it
s'prises 'em, so they forget to fly. Then
we come right up and catch EN-. It's
lots of fun watchin EN- fiutterin round
tryin to get the funnel off The other
boy had his tunnels marked with his
name, an had mine marked with mine,
so we'd know which was mine and which
was his, Chicago News.

Mr.. Peter Alfred Taylor had 50 long
retired from public life that the an
uouncement of his death viii recall an
almost forgotten name. But in his &C
tive days he did splendid public service
He was an aggressive Radical when
Radicalism was unpopular, and the
weak and downtrodden had always in
him an ardent and active friend.
As a member Of the Anticorn Law
league, a defender of Mazzini, cham
pion Of the northern states during the
American civil war, determined OPP
ponent Of the game laws, compulsory
vaccination and grants to royalty, he
did much to stir up public feeling on
these subjects, and when, after a parlia.
mentary career of twenty-five years, he
retired, owing to i'll health, the cause Of
reform lost an honest and outspoken
champion.
Mr. Taylor was wealthy, but gave
literally, and he deserves to be held in
grateful remembrance as a man who
singularly sincere, unselfsh and of
earnest purpose, did much for the pub
lie weal.-Pall Mall Gazette.

The extent to which electricity is be
ing used in legitimate medical practice
is rapidly on the increase, and many of
the new devices for applying it have dis
tinct merit. A recently invented appa-
ratus for the cure Of deafness comprises
battery, belt, an electrode supporter
on the belt, and shaped to rest on the ear,
and connections between the electrode
and the battery. This provides con-
venient and efficient mode of receiving
the current, which can be applied in
finely graduated strength. -Exchange

Complications Of the Grip.

The most serious complication of the
grip is acute bronchitis. This may APP
pear early or late. The breathing be-
comes rapid and difficult A spasmodic
cough is almost constant. The expec.
torations are glairy and tenacious,
With all this there is a peculiar prostra-
ton.
A more common complication is pneu-
monia, of which there are three varie-
ties-croupous, congestive and broncho
pneumonia. Although these complica-
lions are dangerous, yet recovery is the
rule under prompt and careful treat
ment.
A third complication of the grip is
connected with the heart. If patients
sit up they become faint. Some die of
simple failure of the heart; others are
saved from death only by careful atten-
ton on the part of the nurse. After the
grip has passed off, a tendency to faint
ness and neuralgia pains may remain for
weeks or months.
Another complication shows itself in
diarrhea; still another affects the
nervous system and is characterized by
pains in the head or elsewhere, or by
weakness in certain parts Of the body,
such rs the hands or arms.
As TO treatment, the doctor must de-
eide in view Of all the symptoms. But
the patient should in every case take to
his bed. To keep about is exceedingly
dangerous, especially as exposing the pa
tient to the above complications.-Lon-
don Lancet.

SELLING A TITLE.
A Grand Duke Renounces His
Title for q Wealthy Bride.
His Bride tho Daughter OF q serf and the
Widow OF = Former Tradesman-
Financial Straits tho
Incontive.

Now that the car has reduced by
one-thlrd, and in some cases even by
one-half, the allowances and annual
grants from the imperial exchequer to
the various grand dukes the latter are
endeavoring to find rich wives, says the
New York Record. And inasmuch as
the majority of the marriagable ladies
OF royal blood are blessed with great
pretensions, small purses, and even
still less beauty, it is only natural that
the young cousins of the car should
seek wives outside the imperial circle.
The latest case of this kind is that of
Grand Duke Nicholas Niccolaicwitch,
who led to the altar the other day, at
Toula, Mrs. Bourinine, the enormously
wealthy and still prepossessing widow
OF the former head of the great Moscow
and Toula trading house of that name.
What renders the match all the more
sensational and astounding in the eyes
OF the Russians is the fact that both the
lady and her first husband were born as
serfs. When Alexander II. emancipated
the latter in 1869 doubt whether he
ever dreamed that the time would come
when one of his own nephews would
become the husband of the woman born
in that degrading state of servitude
yclept serfage.
Grand Duke Nicholas was only per-
mitted to contract the marriage in cues
tion on condition of rcnounclng his
title of grand duke, his predicate of
Imperial highncss," his allowance
from the imperial treasury and his
command in the army. Henceforth he
will be known merely as Prince Nicho-
las Romanoff.
The surrender of those empty honors
and dignities is more than counterbal-
anced in the eyes Of the ex-grand duke
by his relief from the pangs of shabby
genteel poverty. Hitherto Nicholas
and, in fact, his entire family have been
in terrible financial straits, and have
experienced the utmost difficulty in
making both ends meet.
His father, the late Grand Duke
Nicholas Nicholaiewitch, uncle of the
present czar, died two years ago with
out leaving anything but onerous
debts. This was all the more aston
ishing as the grand duke in question
had come very nenr getting CASH
Tered at the close of the Turko- Russian
war in consequence of the gross per-
sonal dishonesty and wholesale robbery
which characterized his command in
chief of the imperial forces in Europe.
No one will ever know the exact
amount of the enormous brides which
he received during that conflict from
fraudulent army contractors. Where
the money went to 10 one seems to
know, unless it got into the hands of
the English groom's wife who figured
for so long at st. Petersburg as his
belle annie and as the mother of three
of his illcgitimnte children. She left
Russia almost immediately after his
death, with hcr olive branches and all
her belongings.
