The actual amount of gold and sill
yer that is used in a large plating es
tablishment is very great, and the
most strict economy is practiced in
order that there shall be no waste.
The extreme thinness of the gold on
cheap jewelry has long been sub
ject for jest by humorists. A party
Of Boston jewellers was being shown
through one Of the great plating fac.
tories by the proprietor, a man well
known as wag. AS the visitors
stood looking into one Of the watts
where different articles were being
plated with gold by means Of chem
ical process, gentleman asked:
Now, Uncle John, just how much
gold do you use here in your bust.

A man entered a New York house
one day while the woman Of the
house was out taking some dinner to
her husband. He appropriated all
the valuables in the place, cut open a
feather bed, put the booty into the
mattress and carried it off. On the
way down stairs the thief met the
woman on her way back. Docs Mrs.
Smith live herea" he asked. NO"
she replied. WELL" said the thief,

Manifestations Of absentminded-
ness on the part Of the trainmcn on
the elevated roads arc not infrequcnt.
Sometimes they are very funny, as
in the case Of Ninth avenue con.
ductor on q recent rainy day. This
particular conductor Is usually jolly
and level headed, but the vicious and
chilling wetness Of the weather had
evidently worn his patience down to
a very thin venccring. He shouted
the names of the stations in gruff
and surly manner, and his scowls
were as dark as the raincloud. For
the time being he was apparently OBJ
ivious to everything except the tenn
pcstuous weather. Just as the train
pulled up at the Houston street sta
ton he opened the car door and
called out mechanically, Its rain

next car. and appeared to be uncon-
scious that he had said anything out
of the ordinary routine. Now York

The ordinary sick headache is one
that comes from variety of causes.
and the treatments are likewise nu-
merous. But nearly all of them have
more or less neuralgia tendencies,
and those can generally be treated
very effcctually with the bromides.
Bromide of lithium is especially good
in such headaches, as it induces sleep
and rest to the brain when given in
very small doses. Some inhale chic
reform. but this is too dangerous a
substitute for any but an expert to
attempt to handle. The same is true
of the administration of cocaine,
chloral and morphine. The use OF
these soon cures the headache, but
they produce other diseases far more
dangerous Caffein is very good, and
it is this principle i'll tea and coffee
that makes these beverages 80 bene-
fetal They will often relieve an at
tack rs quickly as some Of the more
powerful drugs. -Yankee Blade.

Binns went alone to enjoy the re-
ception of Company II Of the First
regiment at its armory on Wednesday
night. He was delighted with the
affair, and to Mrs. Binns was giving
a glowing description Of one Of the
costumes he saw.
''She was mighty pretty and well
behaved girl" said Binns, and all
the best people seemed to take an in
terest in her, but her costume was just
too stacy"
''What was it likef" asked Mrs.
Binns, who had been kept at home by
measles in the family.
Il can't tell the color" said Binns.
1T was like sky blue pink, with a
shade of greeny brown or something
like that. Anyhow it was Mother
Hubbard"--
"A Mother HUBBARD shrieked
Mrs. Binns.
"Yes. One of those that tuck up
underline arms an0 fall around the
front like a flour sack, you know,
with a thingamajigger with fluting
up the back.
An empire gown" groaned Mrs.
Binns, and Binns said he supposed so.

One Of the most remarkable legal
papers on file in the archives Of the
world Is one now in the National
museum Of Paris, labeled Sentence
on a hog, executed by justice in the
copyhold of Clannont-Avin and
strangled upon a gibbet at that
place" 1t is sealed with red wax,
kept under a glass, bears date Of
June IA, 1494, and reads as follows:
I'VE, the jury, in detestation and
horror of this crime, and in order to
make an example and to satisfy JUS
tee, have declared, judged, SEN
fenced, pronounced and appointed
that the said hog, now detained in
the abbey as prisoner, shall. by the
executioner, be hung and strangled
on gibbet, near the gallows which
now stands within the jurisdiction Of
the monk, being near the copyhold of
Alvin. In witness Of which we have
sealed this present with our seals. 4"

The ship Annesley was originally
named the British Enterprise, but
was sunk by collision in the River

under water for 81, 500, was raised
and repaired at cost Of f3, 600 and
was then renamed and resold for

while Its Mamma Went shopping stran-
ger Performed u Curious Service.
A man stood loafing in front Of a
crowded store where it was bargain
day, when two women stopped before
him. They were already SO laden
with bundles that il seemed impossi-
BILE that they coulA carry any more.
One woman was wheeling a baby
carriage.
There's that checked gingham,"
the man heard hers say; Its the pref

dresses"

''How can l take the carriage

The man loafing at the door took
his hands out of his pocket
Guess ! might as well tend baby
as do anything else" he drawled.
Leave the baby with me, and Ill
take care Of it while you shop"
The women both looked at him
curiously, then the mother Of the
baby eyed the bingham in the window
and that helped her to accept his
offer.
you can leave your bundles in the
cab with the kid, said the man, as
he took the tongue of the perambula-
tor and began to wheel the baby back
and forth.
But neither of the women relin-

mother of the youngster at once took
every package out of the little car

arms.

her say to her friend

They were in the store a long time.
When they at last came out it was
with rush, as if they feared to find
their most valuable possession gone.
But no, it was laughing and smiling
into the face of its male nurse, who
was making all kinds Of comic GEES
lures to amuse it.

The Confederate white House.

THE Confederate White House"
has been doing duty as public
school for many years. 1t would be
pronounced queer looking anywhere
save i'll Richmond. The front on the
street is like that Of any ordinary
square mansion, with the hall i'll the
center and with fiat roof. But
passing directly through the hall to
what should be the rear one comes
out upon a wide gallery, having u
lofty roof level with the floor Of the
third story, supported BY massive
pillars From the gallery yea look
out upon great yard, shut of from
the side street by high brick wall.
The mansion faces in. 1t is impos-
ing when seen from the yard. The
ground floor is n better arrangement
than that of the other white House"
ut Washington. Reception rooms
open into each other and into the
central hall, which alone is large
enough for any ordinary gathering,
while the hall and the surrounding
rooms afford complete circuit for
moving throng.
Different apartments are still
known as 1.-THE cabinet room," "the
reception parlor," 1.-The state dining
room" and SO on, as in the years Of
1865. But all of them, to intents
and purposes, are still schoolrooms.
The walls are blackboards on which
is set the copy of Dare to Do Right,
and various problems in fractions go
ing to prove that the part cannot be
greater than the whole are exhibited.

Whose trustfulness no doubts impair.
On swiftest wings rushing TO God.
Unwilling ~ fierce Tcrror's rod.
Storming the citadels of bliss.
Times worthful wealth boarded for this.
No more the tedious days to bear
Checkered with hope and dull despair.

tree some distance away from him.

and bring you some apples" After
what seemed days Of absence the
wounded comrade returned with ap-
pies, which he gave to his helpless
soldier friends.
God alone knew" said Corporal
Tanner, what charity that act
was to the dying and manned men,
whose parched threats were like dire
full torments. The comrade had
