A Dolls Graveyard,

Living in Oakland is a five-year-old
miss with grewsome idea in regard to
playthings. In the yard of her mothers
house she has grave which she looks
after as carefully as mother does her
only sons last resting place. Several
weeks ago she asked her mamma if
baby dolls died and what became Of
them. Being answered in the negative
she said she was sorry, as she would
like to have dead dollie."
Several days later she sat one of her
dolls on the sill and purposely allowed
it to fall from the window to the
ground. Poor dollie's head was cracked
by the drop of ten feet, and the five
year-old Immediately declared it was
dead. She then got some kitchen
utensils, and, unseen by any msmbss
of the familys~sae dug grave along
SIDE The fence in the shade of an old
apple tree. She made the grave about
Is by 4 inches, and the top of it about
Ii inches above the surrounding
ground. Twice every day since then
she visits the small mound ito fix it
up" Yesterday afternoon, about the
time loving hands were placing flowers
and watering the plants on graves of
relatives in the different cemeteries in
and around the city, the little girl was
arranging flowers on the dolls grave.
Around the edge she placed white
lady slippers" and in the center laid
small cross of red carnations From a
washstand she secured an oblong piece
OF white marble, which she stuck in
the ground at the head of the grave,
after vainly trying to make marks on
it giving the dolls name, age at death,
etc. She says she is going to have
regular graveyard, and will invite other
little girls to bury their dead dolls it it.

Photographing Specters.

1t is possible that the famous specter
OF the Broken may yet have it's photo.
: graph taken, and SO become familiar
to thousands who have never seen the
mysterious shade itself. 1t is known
that the so called specter is simply the
shadow of person standing upon the
mountain, projected upon the surround
ing mist.
Two or three years ago Professor
Hazen, while making meteorological
observations on the summit of Mount
Washington, used to amuse himself by
causing the specters of night visitors to
the observatory to appear in the mist
enveloping the peak.
For this purpose it was only neces-
sary to SO place light as to cast the
shadow of person upon the foggy
cloud ahead of him.
Sometimes a gigantic specter was
produced with startling distiuctness.
although never any equaling the phe-
nomenon seen from the Broken, where
the conditions are peculiarly favorable.
Recently Mr.. A. W. Clayden has re-
ported to the Royal Meteorological so
ciety the results of similar experiments
made by him in the London fog of last
February. He succeeded in raising his
own specter by placing lime light be
hind his head. Then he photographed
the specter.-Youth's Companion.

The Best Sort of Trunk,

The best trunk ever made, or that
ever will be made, was that old time
horsehair covered trunk. 1t would
defy any baggage smasher of the pres
emit age. Why it went out of style l
never knew. 1t was a good seller and
seldom came back for repairs. Next
to 1t the best trunk now made is the
cloth covered one. They are much
better than the tin covered ones, and
yet it is almost impossible to convince
, customer of that. I do not know
whether you are aware of it, but most
English travellers to this country buy
their trunks over here. Our trunks are
no better than the English trunks, but
the English think SO. There are q few
things in this country to which an En-
glishman will take off his hat.-Inter-

LObsters and Their CIaws.

HOLSTERS, like crabs, have a way of
shooting" their claws, as the opera
ton is termed. Slight provocation will
persuade them to drop their arms and
run away without them 1t is said that
loud noise or clap of thunder will
produce this effect An instance is re-
corded of an amateur fisherman who
caught a lot of Holsters, and in order
to keep them fresh tied them by their
claws and hung them by strings over
the side of a vessel. In the morning
only the claws remained attached to
the cords, the Holsters having dispensed
with them and disappeared. Lobster
meat Is about six -tenths as nutritious
as beef. 1t contains remarkably large
percentage of phosphorus. There is no
way in which that element, supposed to
be so important for nourishing the
brain, can be so readily assi1niIated as

The ways and sayings of the Baboos,
or educated natives of India in the en-

There was no misuse of English.

hard hearted authorities denied the
modest request. What long vacations
