sawAest Dunding ploc.ss.

One Of the most promising methods
which have been devised for the u~tili2a-,
ton of sawdust is in use in Germany.
where blocks for building are made of
that material. The accounts rivcn
of their quality are extremely favor,
able as regards their strength, light
ness, hardness Of exterior and caoabil-
ity of resisting fire. 1t is in fact
claimed for them hat they are practi-
cally noncombustible, but nothing
short of the most complete demonstra-
tion q justify the use of that term in
its fall literal significance. The saw
dust is mixed with an acid before the
blocks are nodded. Their cost as now
made is moderate compared with
other materials OF equal utility, and it
is thought that the process may be still
further econom News.

Could Read Long-Hand.

A newspaper woman has a laundress
who is one of the brightest, wittiest
creatures that ever lived, and it never
occurred to her hat the colored indi-
vidual who honored her by doing up
her clothes was not able to read and
write, as she had always appeared above
the average in intelligence. Consequent
ly when Mrs. W left a note on the
bundle of clothes explaining something
she wished done it never occurred to
her that possibly Annie could not un-
derstand a word of it.
Therefore, when she returned and
the ncighbor in the next room related
the following incident she was more
than astonished.
1t seems that Annie had tapped on
the door and in a voice a little less high
and mighty than usual had remarked:
"'Scuse me, Miss Lizzie, but will you
read this yer note of Mrs. W? Of
course, I ean read, but Mrs. W is SO
smart she only writes shorthand. -
