Real Musk.

Musk-that Is, the genuine grain
from the musk deer.--is now worth
its weight in gold, so rare has it be-
come, the wild eyed little animal
from which it is obtained having
been very nearly exterminated
from its Asiatic haunts. A full
grown musk deer will yield about
an ounce of the grains, which are
found in n sac in the skin Of its
abdomen. The grains are no
larger than pea, and some of them
are as small as u pins head. The
musk is sold in the market in the
pods or sacs in which it is found
but is frequently adulterated, SO
many of the deer have been killed
before reaching maturity that the
average musk bag imported, either
Chinese or Russian, will not exceed
half an ounce in weight.
The adulteration of musk is made
possible by the use of seed known
as the musk seed. 1t grows in In
dia. The Chinese musk is priced
the most but is more open to sus-
picion than the Russian, which is
seldom found with the sac broken.
There are many artificial musks,
and our common muskrat yields a
pod that is the only near approach
to the genuine imported musk.

Correct standing PoIse.

In correct standing poise, the weight
of the body is equally balanced on the
two sides of vertical line. Then, If
you allow the chin to come forward too
much, the back must go back sufficient
ly to preserve the balance. If the
shoulders go too far back, the hips
must come too far forward and the alb
domen will protrude. If you stand
with your muscles taut your body will
assume a position in which it's weight
will come directly over the balls of the
feet. If you will stand upon your tip
toes and then gradually let yourself
down, you will find yourself in a posi-
ton in which line in front of the
shoulders will strike the balls of the
feet Another way is to stand against
the wall, put your head shoulders, ell
bows and hips against it, so that your
chest is raised or forced out, hands at
your sides, and you will be in a correct
standing position. Lecture by

lChicneo despatch to the Now York sum
These Buffalo people tell u very
funny story about Grover Cleve-
lnnd and ono of their saloon-keep-
ers whom he knew in the old days
when he was a BuFalonian. 1t
seems that this saloon-keeper,
Louis Goetz, called on Cleveland
in the Broad street law Office the
other day. 1t also seems that he
does not speak English very well.
This il how Louis tells what hap
pened:

IL man wants my card. ] didn't

saloon, so, anyway, l gave dot to
him.

Hello, Grover says l. Hello,
Louis, says he. 'How's der missis p
says I. She's all right, says Grover;
und den he asked about my missis
und den we talked u little about
our missises. Veil, after We got
along past dot, he says; Set down,
Louis, und We speak little.' No,
Grover says, q amt got no more

How the Waiter Favored Particular
Guest.

Guest.
The guests of an uptown family
hotel have been annoyed recently by
the consequences of litigation between
the owners of the building and the
manager The hotel is run about as
usual but the litigation precludes the
purchase of any additional furniture
and fixtures, including dishes. When
the plates and cups and saucers are
Clipped or broken there is no provision
for their replacement while the law
suits are pending. One of the guests an
ardent lover of Mocha, strenuously OBJ
jected to drinking his coffee from a
broken cup. The waiter who attended
his table CHANGED to be one of the oblig-
ing kind and he brought from his pri-
vate cabinet new coffee cup edged with
broad band of gold and with the
words Glove the Giver" intertwined
with flowers. He explained that the
cup had been presented to him years
ago, but he had never lsed it. The
favored guest, not desiring to hurt the
walters feelings, made use of the
gaudy cup. A few days thereafter,
however, the waiter dropped it and
broke it. The next morning coffee was
served to the favored guest in a plain
white mug, labeled in blue letters on
the front: "a Nice Shaver"
"What is this?" asked the guest, sus-
piciously.
"That is my shaving mug" responded
the waiter, affably. 81 haven't an
other whole cup."-N. Y. Times.

Language of mbrellas.

After lengthy study of the sub
ject, some clever genius has ar
ranged the following "language of
umbrellas:"
TO place an umbrella in rack
at club or friends house indicates
that it will shortly change owners.
If n Gotten one is substituted for
a silk, it means exchange is no rob-
berry.
An umbrella held over lady,
with man getting all the rain
drops from the points, signifies
courtship; but when Il man keeps
the lions share of the article and
gives the lady the droppings it in
dicates marriage.
TO carry an umbrella under the
arm at an angle implies that the
individual following will lose an
eye, while to hold it just high
enough to injure passers' eyes and
mems hats signifies 81 am q wo-
man."
Lastly, the loan of an umbrellf
is synonymous with an act OF
egregious folly Boston Com
mercial.

Interesting observations Made at Lick
Observatory This Year.
SAN Francisco Aug. 1S.-Prof. Edward
s. Holden telegrsphs the Associated
Press, from Lick Observatory, that the
new star which appeared in the con-
stellation of Auriga last February, and
which faded so as to appear very faint
through the big telescope, was observed
again last night by Professors schae-
berle, Campbell and himself. "The
star has increased in brightness in a
surprising manner" SAYS Holden, "being
now of ten and one-helf magnitude.
Observations of the spectrum made
during last spring lelt many questions
unsettled. The present observations
will throw much light upon these, and
will enable us to trace something like q
complete history of the remarkable
changes to which it has been subjected. y
LICK OBSERVATORY, Aug. 18.-Up to
the middle of August many of the ca
mails OF Mars, discovered in 1877 by Pro-
lessor Schiaparelli, were mapped here,
but none of them were seen to be double.
On the night of August 18th, Professors
Schaeberie, Campbell and Hussey made
three entirely independent drawings,
each of which shows the canal marked
Ganges on Schiaparelli's map to be dis
tinctly double. Thus the Lick observa-
tory has the pleasure of confirming the
discovery of Professor Schiaparelli in
1892, as it already had done by it's OBJ
servation of 1890.
