A Boom for Brunettes.

The brunette type is becoming more
numerous in England and on the CONT
nent generally. Mr.. Gladstone, who
observes most things. said some years
ago that light haired people were far
less numerous than in his youth. This
statement was borne out by the results
of the statistical inquiry undertaken
by DR.. Beddoe, who examined 726 wom-
en- and found that 800 were brunettes
and 357 blondes. Carrying this inquiry
step further. DIR. Beddoe learned that
1855 per cent. of the brunettes had hus-
bands, while only SO per cent of the
blondes were married. From this it
appears that in England brunette has
ten chances of being welded to the
nine chances of the blonde; and DR..
Beddoe went on to argue that 1.-THE
English are becoming darker because
the men persist in selecting the dark
haired women as wives" The same
thing is happening in Germany, in
France, in Switzerland and elsewhere
on the continent.

did you ever eat painted meat?'
asked a Partisan the other day, Of
ST. Louis Globe-D Democrat man. Yes,
thereis such a thing. Your American
cooks are artists in their line. but do
not know all the tricks of the trade.
The idea is not a very old one, but all
the most important restauranteurs in
Paris now employ an artist, whose
sole occupation is to paint beefsteak,
chops and joints. meat artist just
now is an important individual in the
culinary department. Let me explain
it to you
''There was a party of diners at one OF
the big cafes, and they insisted upon
having leg of mutton roasted on
spit. The caterer already had fresh
leg of mutton roasted in the pan. This
he wanted to dispose of, and called on
his meat artist to make it look as
though 'twere roasted on spit. First
the chef transfxed it with spit,
which he Immediately withdrew and
then passed it to the painter.
"The artist had before him dozen
pots and bowls of different sizes. Each
had it's own particular brush and its
own peculiar name. Beside these lay
a number of other brushes of various
sizes, shapes, kinds and degrees of stiff
ness The artist studied, the leg OF
mutton for a minute, much as one
would study landscape he was about
to copy. Then passing his hand across
his brow, to aid his thinking, probably,
he thrust his brush into bowl of paint
called rissole and painted over the deep
brown parts of the mutton that had
just come from the oven. The next
thing he did was to take cloth and
sprinkle over the mutton a powder of
carbonized meat. This is calculated to
make the morsel crackle under the
teeth. and lends crisp. brittle surface
to the flesh. Then he applied a mixture
called natural blood. With this he
initiated the pricks from which the
juice was supposed to have escaped in
abundance. Then the leg was passed
to the scullion, who poured few
added a little beet juice. Then, taking
small syringe, he pierced three holes
in the meat. Next he variegated the
whole with a quantity of boiling
grease With these finishing touches
NJ. Garcon placed it before the diners,
and with flourish announced that it
had come just from the spit The
guests ate it with a relish, and do not
know the difference yet. Oh, it is per-
fectly harmless, but you never know
what you eat, you know"

NOT HEARD BY HUMAN EARS.

Sounds Which Please Animals Often In
audible to Man.
Animals may hear sounds that are in
audible to us, says Chambers Journal.
Certainly the sounds that give the keen
est pleasure to many aninlals-cats, for
example-are seldom capable of giving
pleasure to us. We know, of course,
that sou nds may be too low or too high
that is, the vibrations may be too
slow or too rapid-to be audible to the
human ear, but it does not follow that
they are equally inaudible to different
ly tuned ears. The limits of audible
sound are not invariable even in the
human ear women can usually hear
higher sound than men, and the two
ears are not, as a rule, equally keen. A
sound may be quite inaudible to one
person and plainly heard by another.
Prof. Lloyd-Morgan mentions as an in
stance of this a case in which the pip
ing of some frogs in Africa was so loud
to him as almost to drown his friends
voice, but of which his friend heard alb
solutely nothing. The same thing may
be observed by anyone possessing the
little instrument known as Cations
whistle. The sound made by this
whistle can be made more and more
shrill, until at last it ceases to be heard
at all by most persons. Some can still
hear it; but by raising the sound still
higher even they cease to hear: The
sound is still being made-that is, the
whistle is causing the air still to vi
brate, but so rapidly that our ears no
longer recognize it, though the exist
ence of these inaudible vibrations is de-
tected by sensitive fame,'' as was
first shown by Prof. Barrett in 1877.

QUEEN vIcToRlA.s THEATER.

The Waterloo Chamber at Windsor Cas-
tie, Where Performances Are Given.
The Waterloo chamber, where Gar
men, was recently performed at Wind
sor by Sir Augustus Harris company, is
described by the Pail Mall Budget as a
large, square room in the center of the
state apartments 1t is approached on
one side by the grand staircase and the
grand vestibule from the quadrangle,
and on the other by the grand recep-
ton room from the private apartments.
There are besides three other doors,
connecting it with St. Georges hall on
other The stage is erected across the
room, and the throneroom will be used
as greenroom. while the Rubens-room,
the kings closet and the northern end
of the grand reception-room can also be
pressed into service as dressing-rooms.
Opposite the stage is a raised dais, on
which is placed chair for the queen,
and on lower level chairs for the roy
al family Around on the floor are
chairs for the privileged guests.
The Waterloo chamber was built by
Sir Jeffrey Wyatville, the architect OF
modern Windsor castle, over a disused
courtyard which used to exist in the CEN
ter of the state apartments, and which
served no purpose whatever. The cham
Der was originally intended as gallery
to receive the numerous portraits exc.
cuted by Sir Thomas Lawrence for
George w. in remembrance of the vari.
Gus kings, generals and statesmen who
were associated in the league of nations
against Napoleon l., and with the sub
sequent resettlement of Europe at the
congress of Vienna.
The result of it's central position was
that it was lighted altogether by sky
lights, and that the entire surface OF
the walls was available for the purpose
for which it was designed. Among the
works of art which line the walls are
eighteen large canvases by Sir Thomas
Lawrence, the most striking of which is
the full length of Count Plotef Hetman
of all the Cossacks, which was designed
when the Cossack chief visited England
in the train of the Tar Alexander after
Waterloo. The chamber has on several
OCCctSlOIS Uceu uocu 1OI SICtdC SCdCC OdD-
quets.
The throneroom is an oblong apart
ment which looks out on the north ter
race. The walls are hung with rich
brocade of the deep garter blue, and
woven with the monogram of ''SS' and
the garter and motto of the order. The
chairs and furniture are upholstered to
match, and their total effect is very
striking. The panels are adorned with
very fine paintings, and there are sew
eral very valuable cabinets filled with
china At the western end stands a
beautifully-carved ivory throne, consist
ing of a seat fashioned out of elephants
tusks. which was presented to the queen
by the rajah of Travancore. This apart
ment used to be the meeting place of
the Knights of the Garter when a chap
ter of the order was held.

ABOUT THE AMETHYST.

"A Gem of Many Varieties and with q
Classic History.
The word amethyst means not in
toxicated or drunken, because the stone
was supposed to possess the virtue of
preventing drunkenness, leaving the
wearer or drinker not intoxicated. &
For this reason, according to Miner
ais, it was made into drinking cups by
the ancient Persians, but, unfortun-
ately, tradition leaves us in doubt as to
whether it was this misplaced confidence
or not that led to the discontinuance of
the amethystine cup.
The occidental amethvs is species
of quartz, blush purple in color,
generally occurring crystallized in
hexahedral prisms terminated by cor
responding pyramids. It's fracture is
conchoidal spintery. It's color is due
to the oxide of manganese or to iron
and soda.
Although esteemed as gem, it is
unlike most gems-more brilliant by
sunlight than by gaslight. The most
Brazil, Ceylon, India, Siberia, and vari
Gus parts of Europe. 1t is found also in
North Carolina, Mount Holyoke and
Nova Scotia.
The shores of the picturesque basin
of Minas, made famous by Longfellow's
poem ''Evangeline," furnish many fine
specimens of this beautiful stone. After
the frosts Of winter have broken and
scaled the face of the bluffs then is the
most favorable time to hunt not only
for the amethyst. but for other miner
rails, such as chalcedony agate, mala-
chite, calcite, anocline, apatite, natro-
lite, ETC., found there in the debris at
the foot of the cliffs. ...
1t is said that a Cape Blom1don anne
thyst is in the crown of France and
that two hundred and seventy-fve years
amethysts from one of the islands in the
basin to Henry Nv. of France. These
gems are generally found in geode or
after a fresh fall of traprock.
The oriental amethyst is really a vio-
let-colored sapphire, which is an exceed
ingly rare gem and of brilliant luster.
It is regarded as sacred stone, and is
used to ornament the cross and the pas
toral ring of Catholic bishops. The an
clients often used the amethyst for cut
ting figures both in relief and in intag-
lilo, and there is in the national library
of France a delicately-wrought profile
of M@cenas, Roman statesman of Dc
tavius' time, engraved on amethyst by
Dioscorides, one of the four celebrated
engraverc mentioned by Plny.

A Costly Wardrobe.

There was an auction sale of young
woman's wardrobe the other day in
New York. The young woman was the
daughter of millionaire who died
about six weeks ago.. the auctioneer
said, and she was disposing of her
wardrobe because she had to go into
;nourning. Thirty women and as many
men attended the sale. The bidding
was lively, but the prices brought were
nothing in comparison to the alleged
cost. An deliberately -trimmed evening
costume of royal purple velvet, with
,kold embroidery. which originally cost,
- the, anctioneer said, five thousand
,i1ollars, was knocked down for seventy
satlv,se dollars. "A Nile g1een3silk evening
llress brought seventeen dol1ars- A fur
trimmed jacket was sold for sixty-five
dollars. The other articles were sold
|at prices ranging from one to fifteen

more than Eve hundred dollars.
