SHOPPING SUGGESTIONS.


ALL the best mattings are now made
seamless, not joined at every yard or
10, so that they pull apart at this weak
point.
A WISE shopper avoids the gaudy,
elaborate patterns in the new mat
tings, but rather selects a simple pat
tern of two or three colors, or mat
ting in plain white, but of the very best
quality.
THE heaviest Oriental rugs and the
Philadelphia rugs are SO thick that a
slight fame which may touch them is
easily smothered. Such wooden rugs
are the only proper ones to put in front
OF fire.
If there were no other objection to
the fashionable cotton rug, its extreme
infammability would be one. In con-
nection with the hardwood floor, pol
ished with turpentine and beeswax, it
presents veritable Undertook.
WHEN the rawlings of a carpet are
burned, they easily disclose, by the
method of burning, the wool, which
crisps and emits an unpleasant odor
like any animal fiber, and the jute,
cotton or other vegetable authorizations,
which burn with a light blaze.

WOODEN MONEY IN ENGLAND.
Notched Sticks Used Before the Bank Of
England Was Established.


Notched Sticks Used Before the Bank of
England Was Established.
Wooden money, in the shape of ex-
chequer tallies, was, prior to the es-
adjustment of the Bank of England
| in 1894, current in the country named.
Tallies was the name given to the
notched sticks formerly in use in Eng
land for keeping the accounts in the
exchequer. They are described by
Tid-Bits as square rods of hazel or will
low, inscribed on one side with notches
indicating the sum for which the tally
was an acknowledgment, and on two
other sides with the same sum in
Roman characters. When the trans
action was completed, the tally record
ing it was split lengthwise, SO that
each section obtained half of each
notch and one of the written sides.
One-half, called the tally or check, was
given to the person for whose service
it was intended; the other half, called
the counter tally, was retained in the
exchequer until its corresponding tally
should be brought in by the person
who had last given value for it. 1t
thus became a current token repre-
senting cash. After tn establishment
of the Bank of England government
payments were made through its
agency The use of TALES in the ex-
chequer was abolished by statute %,

acts 4 and 5, William w., ordered to
be destroyed, and it was the burning
of them that caused the confagration

FINDS THE CHANGES TRUE.
Attorney Bucbanan's Report on tho Ill
Treatment of French Laborers.

COLUMBIA, s. c., Jan. 24.-Special.-
Assistant Attorney General Buchanan re-
turned to-day from the Phosphate Mines,
where he investigated the complaints OF
Ill treatment OF French and Italian la
borers. His report confirms all that was
said in the complaint of the French and
Italian consuis.
The Italian complaint had not been re-
ceived when he left here, therefore he
had only the French complaint TO in
vestigate. He says that he found six
Frenchmen imprs Jned In the mines
under guard, who knew nothing of the
English language, and are unable to make
known their complaint, as all the over
seers are Italians The only alleged rea-
son for their detention was that they
were in debt to the storekeeper.
Investigation showed that they were
forced to buy their supplies from the
Italian storekeepers. and at such prices
as they pleased TO charge them; that they
are worked wholly by Italian bosses, and
are as helpless as though they had no
tongue at all, so far as making their
abuses known to anyone. The report
further states that at one time these
men were actually shot into by one Of
these bosses with d gun loaded. with small
shot and several Of them Wounded The
Italian who did the shooting has In the
meantime run away TO New York.
The condition as described in the report
is one of thorough and complete slavery.
The report concludes with the conclusion
that the remedy is beyond the power of
the State, and should find its permanent
relief in the extension OF the national
law on immigration.
But" IL concludes 'T would recon-
mend that a detective be employed to
investigate the condition Of work in these
mines, and to report any violation of the
