MAKING AN IMPRESSION.
Behavior of the Girl Who Discovers That
She Is Beautiful.

The girl is unluclxy who finds out
suddenly that she has something nice
the matter with her. l knew one, says
writer in the Philadelphia Press, who
learned that she had lovely hair. She
took to doing it up with the hairpin,
and she used to look like mop on the
third day of a house cleaning. She
look to jerking her head, too, so that
her hair would come down, and then she
did look lovely, especially if it hap
pened at the~theater, at luncheon, or in
the cars. She would wiggle her head
so that her words would come out
around. A girl with neat foot is the
worst nuisance know. She always
has it stuck out in the car. Her shoe
string is always coming undone. She
is forever lifting her dress and making
you nervous. 1t just about spoils
girl if she finds out that she has fine
eyes and pretty teeth. Good-by to quiet
expression at once. Her eyes roll droop,
snap shut, open, dance and sparkle all
over the place, till you wonder why
they don't get sprained. Meanwhile
her teeth are working just as hard.
She smiles twice minute, and often
her eyes are getting in some fine touches
that don't go with smile at all. The
effect is awful got so tired looking
at girl the other day that l wondered
why the man with her didn't marry her
just for the sake of tying her eyes fast
to her nose and knocking her teeth out.
AS for me, give me a girl who knows
she is homely or one who is SO good
looking that she doesn't care.

HOW WE HAVE GROWN.
A Gradual Development from Thirteen to
Forty-Eour States.

Since the declaration of independence
when the united colonies declared
themselves to be free and independent
states, says the Chautauquan, the
United States has acquired territory in
the three following ways:
1. By cessions to the general govern
ment from the thirteen original states.
g. BY purchase in treaties.
8. BY annexation and conquest in
war.
In the beginning there were thirteen
states with an area of about 100000
square miles, containing about 3,000,-
600 people. Now there are forty-four
states and five remaining territories,
not counting Alaska, with an area of
100000 square miles, and a population,
in 1890, of G2, G22, 900.
Of the thirty-one new states which
have been admitted to the union since
the adoption of the constitution, one
had already formed itself into state
before the convention of 1877 had pro-
gided way for its admission into the
tnion; one, like ''lone star" came
fiom a position of free and indie
pendent republic; one was made out of
another state without the others con-
seat by an extra-constitutional process
in civil war; and twenty-eight by en-
abing acts OF congress in the ordinary
way were erected into states from the
common domain of our national terri

AIDED BY A PIG.
The Animal Dug Up the Trufdes and the
Hun.ers Conflscated Them.

COllILscateQ Inejus
Speaking of pigs reminds me that l
lately went trufiie hunting with one,
says Paris letter to the Boston Tran
script. 1t was not near Paris, for there
are no trufi1es hereabouts; but far to
the south, in the region of the
Dordogne. The pig was about the
ugliest and most depraved looking
beast of its kind that can be imagined
one with stilted back and shockingly
exaggerated nose, having the curve of
a pump handle, but, like many human
beings who are not beautiful, it was
exceedingly intelligent. It's greediness,
of course, made it so, but greediness is
not always a corrective to stupidity.
The ie-hunter-in-chief was the
pigs master, and as far as appearances
went there was really not much differ
ence between them. He had also
bent back and a nose that seemed to
have been designed for no other pur-
pose than that of turning up truffles.
Nevertheless it was the pig that did all
the digging work, the mans part of the
business being to take care that the
cryptogram did not get swallowed on
the spot To guard against this acct
dent he had filed his pockets with
maize, few grains of which the animal
accepted in exchange for trufae.
Once or twice the sybaritic instincts of
the beast were too Strong for its iudg-
ment, and it ate the fungus before the
man had time to snatch it; but blows
upon the nose with stick counter
and the pig, being reasonable animal,
soon came to the conclusion that it was
better to accept the maize and leave the
trnffie

FRANCES CHAMPAGNE,
The Yield of 1891 Valued at S25, 00O,-
ooo-Care in Treating the Vintage.

The Yield of 1891 Valued at S25, 00O,-
ooO-Care in Treating the Vintage.
The harvesting of the champagne
vintage takes place in the latter part of
October and the first weeks in Novem-
ber and during that period the whole
district of Champagne becomes as busy
as bee hive. About fifteen thousand
hectares are covered with vines. The
yield is estimated at S25, 900, 900. 1t is
difficult for anybody who has not seen
it to appreciate the extreme care taken
with the champagne vintage. The
grapes are plucked one by one, are Sc
lected according to their ripeness and
often they have to be cleaned before
they are put into the presses. There
are two things about champagne that
are not generally known. The wine is
not the product of white grapes. Three
fourths of the champagne vines produce
black grapes only, and the almost white
color of the wine is obtained through
the perfection of the presses. Again,
while in Bordelais and in BourgogEe
each crop of grapes has its own indi-
viduality and admits of no mixing, it is
quite the contrary in Champagne.
There they mix several crops, each one
of which contributes its own peculiar
quality to the wine.
The annual production of champagne
wines is abundantly sufficient for the
consumption of champagne in the whole
world, despite what has been said to
the contrary. 1t amounts to II, 1925, 600
gallons. The export of champagne wine,
which in 1s44-45 reached only 6,500,0OO
bottles, in 1S90-0l was $4,000, 900. The
greatest consumption is in England and
the United States; then come Germany,
Russia and Belgium.

Tho lEse and Fall of Far West
ern Boom City.
Cased Upon Mining speculations 1t
Clourished for a Grief Season
and became a Deserted
Ruin.

The city of Meadow Lake was once
known to everybody, says the Sierra
vile (Cal.) Mirror. To all, however, it
is now mere memory, this deserted
city up in the fastness of Sierra county.
Meadow lake was originally a sink
hole about seventy-five feet deep, and
was about fourteen fect IL diameter
A large dam was erected below it in
1851, the water was held back, and this
lake was formed. While building the
dam the worllmen discovered that
much of the rock contained deposits of
pure galena, and, thinking they had
struck it rich were not slow in making
the discovery known. In the year 1865
the excitement commenced, and every
other man met was going TO Summit
City, as it was then called. Snow was
shoveled of the ground as soon as
practicable, and the work of building
was commenced. In a few months a
city arose and every available foot OF
ground was put into play. At this time
the population Of the town had reached
about four thousand and was rapidly
increasing. Quartz-mills were in opera
lion and blasts were going off in thirty
or forty tunnels and shafts all
the time, making constant
roar. Several small mining com
panies were obliged to give up the
fight, as not cent had been taken out
and thousands put in. Still no one was
discouraged, and to all doubling ears
was sounded Excelsior! Wait till the
Excelsior cleans upl" and nothing more
was heard from morning till night but
the booming of blasts and the cries of
''Excelsior Hurrah for Excelsior"
At this mine the stamps were crushing
ore all day, all night, and every day in
the week, grunting, grooming to work
out the precious metal The Excelsior
cleaned up, and the news was carried
to the anxious waiting crowd that the
run was unsuccessful and that the at
tempt would not be repeated. In an
almost unbelievably short time the
town was deserted; almost u panic re-
suited. Houses were left with the con-
tents exposed to the storms of an APP
preaching winter houses with their
shelves packed with merchandise re-
NAMED undisturbed until later, when
they were robbed and burned by enter
prising citizens of Deighboring locali-
ties.
The road winds around the lake; the
ruins OF houses become more frequent
until you emerge from the timber and
the city lies before you. Now, as one
rides down the main street the horses
step on board and voices are echoed
back by the old wooden buildings with
u harsh metallic ring. Near the center
of the town stands tall flagstaff, bent
with storm and winds. Sign poles are
still standing in front of the buildings,
and open doors reveal the contents or
of them. On every hand lie
ruins of hundreds of frame buildings, |
and here and there whole blocks of
buildings destroyed by fire. A careful
count reveals the fact that forty-three |
houses are standing. 1t is a pitlful |
sight, this city, on which millions of
dollars were expended.

The Leader OF the Israelites Had Eight

1t is curious fact, unknown, perhaps

fame was called by eight different
names in various places in the Bible.
Bathia, the daughter of Pharaoh, called
him Moses. because she drew him out
of the water. Jochebed, his mother,
called him Jel1uthiel, says: 81 had hoped
for him. Miriam, his sister, called
him Jared, because she had descended
after him into the water to see what
his end would be. Aaron called his
brother Abb zanuch, because his father
had deserted their mother. Amram,
the father of Moses, called the boy
Chabar, because he was again reunited
to the mother of the lad. Kehath, the
grandfather of Moses, called him Abig-
dor. because God had repaired the

A VOLCANIC ISLAND.
Mexico Has One, the Result of the Earth
quake Last summer.

A party which has just returned from
the head of the gulf of California, says
the Chicago Globe, brings the news
of the formation of volcanic island
during the earthquake of last summer.
At a point near the middle of the gulf,
where it has always been considered
the deepest, there is now an island that
has for its center an active volcano,
spouting fire, ashes and mud. The island
rises Just above the surface of the wa
ter and the cone of the volcano is but a
few feet above the surface of the island
An attempt was made to land upon the
new island by the party, but they found
that it was simply a crust and wherever
they would place foot the crust would
break through and clouds of steam
would rise from the oriice. The island
is of undoubted volcanic origin and the
hole is about fifty feet in diameter,
while the cone itself covers nearly the
whole of it. When they went up they
noticed furious boiling at the place,
but there was no appearance of an
island or volcano. Upon their return
they saw the island as it had formed,
and they believe that it is constantly
growing.
They made sounding around the
island and they found that where there
had formerly been no bottom to the gulf
as far as the usual means of measure
ment is concerned, now they could find
bottom within ten feet of the surface
for mile in any direction of the island.
1t has the appearance of ridge and
the men think that the center of the
gulf has been forced up by some in
ternal pressure like the folds of cloth.

THE RAINBOW TROUT.
Growth In Popularity and Numbers of a
Carney, Handsome Fish.

Growth In Popularity and Numbers of a
Carney, Handsome Fish.
Favorable reports continue to reach
the United States fish commission as to
the result of planting yearling rainbow
trout in streams of Missouri and Arkan-
sas. In a letter recently received by
the commissioner of fisheries, Mr.. G. s.
Dickinson, secretary of the Rogers
Electric Springs Fish Farm Company,
Rogers, Ark, states that in February
last five hundred rainbow trout were
received at Rogers by Prof. Scoggs, of
the Silver Springs Milling Company,
from the commission, and were depos-
tied in the spring stream. They now
average fourteen inches in length.
This species of trout is Indigenous to
the Pacific slope, but several years ago
it was transplanted in the waters of the
central and eastern states, in many of
which it has found congenial environ
ment and bids fair to become the most
desirable variety of the salmonid@ for
pond and stream culture. 1t is hardy,
gamey and handsome, while it possesses
all the qualities of an excellent food
fish. At the trout breeding stations of
the fish commission at Wytheville, Pa,
and Neosho, Mo-, the propagation of
the rainbow trout receives considerable
attention, and its popularity is strik-
ingly demonstrated by the increasing
and urgent requests for this species
that are constantly being received at
the Office of the commission. LA
