Married All of Them,

The first place in the list of those
who have married early and married
often must be taken by Lady Eliza
beth Darcy, the daughter of Thomas
Earl Rivers. on account Of the curl
GUS coincidence attending her mar
riages. She was wooed by three
suitors at the same time, and the
knights, as in chivalry bound, were
disposed to contest the prize in the
customary manner. This the lady
peremptorily forbade, and promised
in jocular manner, if they had but
patience, she would have them all
three in their turn, and, what is most
remarkable, she literally fulfilled her
promise. First, she married Sir
George Trenchard, of Wolverton,
who left her widow at seventeen /;
secondly, Sir John Gage, of Firle, and
thirdly, William Henry, of Hick-
worth, the three original claimants
for her hand All the Year Round

Cork SOled Shoes.

The pc. lllarity Of cork soled shoes
Is on the increase, and the so calll d
cork is being manufactured in large
quantities, the substance being pre-
duced in long rolls and lengths, al d
sold thus to the trade. The only
popularity about the fashion is why
the material is called cork Certain
ly it is far more valuable for its pur-
pose than cork itself could possibly
be, and this is one of the cases in
which the imitation is far superior 10
the original. Some new and more
appropriate name is sure to be adopt
ed before long, but not until the de-
mand for cork soled shoes, so called,
decreases The shoes of this type
were in great demand, even when
they were both costly and clumsy,
and the avoidance of both these
drawbacks has paved the way for
apparently long lived career of pop
ularity. Every one who wears them
has his own reasons for SO doing,
some thinking they increase the tenn
perature of the feet and some hold
ing exactly the contrary, but the
fashion has been established, and
that is practically all that is neces-
ary.-Exchange.

Ahout Lifting the Hat.

There are certain courtesies gen
orally paid by men to women that
long usage has led us to take as a
matter of course. One of these is
that of raising the hat. There is no
question but that this is a graceful
and becoming act for any man, what
ever his age or station may be, or
whoever the woman is to whom he
pays the little mark of Difference
At the same time many men do not
follow the custom, and the omission
is not necessarily to be attributed to
ignorance nor to lack of respect for
women, especially if the man is past
middle age.
Most mon who are bald are obliged
to be careful about exposing the head
to draft, and for that reason avoid
taking off the hat out of doors. OF
course there are times and places
when they could do it without dan
ger, but it would hardly do to vary
the rule to suit the weather. Man

CLEANING THE STREETS.
Ash Barrels Which Ogfend and Odors That
Como Not From Balsamic Pines.

ASH horTeIS w ntCu uhu ouOfs lnar
Como Not From Balsamic Pines.
New York has q street cleaning de
partment that is not wholly a dis
grace, though in some respects it
sometimes comes mighty near it.
The principal effort seems to be in
the direction of the better part of
town-on the supposition, it is pre-
sumed, that the best people are the
richest and do the most kicking. The
other fellows-well, what right have
they to grumble anyhow5 A few
years ago, under different political
regime, a great outcry was raised
about the matter of ash barrels.
The ridiculous spectacle of q row of
garbage and ash barrels on the curbs
of New York streets made this city
the laughing stock of every other
city in the country. Just about the
time we had become fairly no.ed all
over the world for our curb barrels
and telegraph poles along came new
order of things. Down came the
poles, and the ash barrels were or
dered to the rear But the ash bar
rel nuisance has only been con.
cealed, not abated. In theory they
are removed the first thing every
morning. AS a matter of fact they
are left nearly all day hidden behind
the stoops to offend the eye and nos
t1ils.
Even in the most fashionable parts
of town the garbage IS not removed
until about 2 o'clock in the after
noon. AS this is after the time when
fashionable calls have begun, it is
very aggravating. Sometimes the
swillman arrives simultaneously with
the guests at fashionable reception.
If the wind happens to be blowing
the right way, the ashes take the un-
fortunate callers in the neck, or the
powerful odors of the disturbed gar
bage can follow them into the draw
ing room.
But such trifing incidents are not
to be mentioned in comparison with
the discomforts and worse arising
from the presence all day of these
garbage cans in the easements of
residences. 1t is true they are out
side, but they are directly under the
front windows and in plain sight of
all the inmates of the mansion
Their presence is a great outrage.
Better a thousand times be on the
sidewalk, where at most they offend
only the eye. New York Herald.

A Monstrous Spider.

Mygale avicularia is a monstrous
spider, with body two inches long
and legs, when expanded, reaching
to seven, who kills small birds and
hangs them up in larder of thick
web for future use. This robber car
ries on his murderous trade with
cunning dexterity, for which the poor
finches are no match. His huge
brownish body being thickly covered
with coarse gray hairs and exactly
matching in color the trunk of the
tree, in some rough crevice of which
he turks unseen, he is ready to pounce
out at a moments notice upon his
hapless prey when once entangled in
the fatal web.
Another monster of the same genus,
five inches in expanse," of a brown
tint with yellowish lines on his thick
hairy legs, is equally rapacious; but,
carrying on his depredations only ct
the door of his den in the brown
earth, needs no protecting color, as
he comes out only at night when all
about him is in shadow. Nineteenth

Words Used In Communication.

A French peasant whose sphere of
thought is not very wide, gets along
with GOO words, sshile philosopher
will use 20 times as many. The Old
Testament uses only 5,G42 words,
Shakespeare $1,000 and Voltaire 90,
600. In view of this, why should an
ape not be satisfied with 202 Gar
ner's experiments must needs be veri-
fed by many anatomical and physi-
illogical examinations, for Broca has,
as it seems, proved absolutely that
articulated language depends upon
certain convolutions of the brain, par
ticularly on the left side of the head.
Do the speaking monkeys possess
those convolutions2 Broca has adj
mitted the possible rudiments of such
convolutions in certain apes, but
later researches have not proved
their existence in lower apes. .-Copen

The Fatal Trousers stretcher.

OF all the godsends that have been
put upon the market in the shape of
patents, the trousers stretcher has
done the most for the maker of pants
exclusively" There is no manner Of
process or treatment which is so
quickly fatal to pair of trousers
as the trousers stretcher. Ye who
groan over folding them up and lay
ing them away; ye who are blessed
with pair of suspenders for every
pair of trousers, and hang them up,
bless your lucky stars that you never
gave way to the delusive, honeyed
words of the trousers stretcher man.
1t will use up more trousers in one
year than the splintered cellar door of

Velocity of Raindrops.

OF course we all know that it would
be an utter impossibility for storm
clouds to form and rain TO fall were
it not Tor the 40 odd miles of atmos
phere that rises above our heads
But supposing it were possible for
human beings to exist in an atmos.
phere that only rose to a level with
their mouths, and that stormclouds
could form in the region outside such
low grade atmosphere, then every
raindrop would prove as fatal to
earthly creatures as if it were steel
bullet fired from dynamite gun.

A Dissertation ON Hamlet.

One of Miss A. c. Graham's schol-
ars, according to her article in The
University Correspondent, wrote the
following:
Hamlet was weakminded. Fond
of study. But was too weak to fulfil
his duty which the Ghost had told
him. He was very good to his
mother He profains madness, he
really only put it on but some people
say he was mad. One day when he
was fighting the king asked him if he
would have something to drink g. he
had put poison in it e. Hamlet said
he would wait the Queen took it g.
then she falls down dead Hamlet i'm
mediately stabs his father g. drinks
the poisin and dies.

Moderation In Exercise.

We may well rejoice that the day
has vanished when pale face, dull
eyes and a week chest were the signs
of knowledge, but we will do well to
guard against the other extremes
which regard physical culture as
the most important thing in life.
The young people who attend our in
stitutions of learning should be en-
couraged to take plenty of physical
exercise. Their inclination toward
outdoor games should not be frowned
upon, but they should be held to
moderation and to such a wise divi-
sion of their time as will enable them
to devote proper attention to their
studies. Altoona Tribune.

sheariug Camcls In China.

Camel's wool, used for padding
clothes, is an article of considerable
traffic in North China, and when
spring zephyrs take tho place of win
ter blasts the herdsmen of the pla
teau shear their camels by a procesn
which preserves the merit of extreme
simplicity, pulling out by hand what
ever has not been shed naturally.
Many animals are kept for the sole
purpose of yielding wool. but tho
amount obtainable from each is
singularly disproportioned to the
huge bulk of it's producer A heavy
fleece taken from a full grown camel
will seldom average over seven
pounds, while S,S is high price for
the picul of 1873 pounds. IN. B. Den

After Ealing of Forth Bridge.

Sir Benjamin Baker, one of the en-
gineers of the Forth bridge, notes as
a curious fact that during the prog
ress of the work several Of the work
men fell from the bridge $50 or 100
feet into the water without being
killed or even stunned. They had
breath enough left in their bodies to
enable them to catch a rope when it
was thrown to them, but not breath
enough to speak for the next fort
night. During that period they lay
perfectly still, and at the end Of the
fortnight they generally said they
felt as if they had been beaten up
inside. "a sort of whipped egg ar
