it that only favored few could en-.

EVERY OTHER ONE.

One III every. other family in the
United States, indicates the number
q California Kitchen Cabinets OK
pcted to oe sold. This estimate is
hsed on the rate of sales made since
ib introduction. The population of
tie country is about 65,0OO,00O peo-
le divided into about 13,OO0,O0O
tmilies. Every other family buying
ae would make 6,500,O00 cabinets
old. 1t would seem we'll nigh i'm
possible to handle such number
then it is considered that they are
lot put on sule at stores as are stoves
and sewing machines, the other two
Gticles of household furniture of
equal value with this, but are sold by
Duse to house CANVASS.
Unlike stoves andN sewing mo-
dimes they do not wear out, but last
alife time, so that new demand
,iSes only from the formation of
lew families or the repentance of
nose allowing to pass by the oppor-
hnity to purchase. Hence the man
Ter most satisfactory for it's disposal,
iside from it's being an article pro
iected by patent right.
It's carrying patent, however, docs
lot make it in anywiso Intricate
There is nothing about it that child
would not understand at once, if it
had ever been inside kitchen. It's
appeal to every day wants and uses
makes it sell in this unprecedented
humber of families.
Only II lack of means, SO great that
it cannot wait for reimbursement,
limits it's sale at all. Otherwise every
household in the land would have it
as standard piece of furniture.
4 TO those who can buy at all, its
cost is so small as to be soon forgot
ten. More than it's cost is soon lost
without it. An appleciable differ.
ence in yearly grocery bills would
soon make evidence of this.
It is the object of the proprietors
of this valuable invention that all
should havo the privilege of seeing
it. The agents take personal pleas
ure in its exhibit, not only to those
who buy, but to any who take an in
terest in such things, enough to APP
preciate it.
In this time of uncertain and inef
fcient service housekeeper must
hold herself in readiness for indie
pendence when thrown upon her own
resources. With her kitchen in up
pie pie order, the drudeery of the
work is reduced to the minimum, and
the work she must do offset by tho
total absence of annoyance of poor
servants Where this cabinet will
then be a blessing she can easily see.

that is the long and tho short of it.

INSECTS AND FLOWERS.
Explanation of the Peculiar BrilIiaucy of
the Flora of the Higher Alps.

Explanation of the Peculiar BrilIiaucy OF
the Flora of the Higher Alps.
A curious instance of what might be
called a device of nature to secure the
continued existence of certain forms OF
life under disadvantageous circum.
stances has recently attracted atten.
ton in discussion of the brilliancy OF
the colors of Alpine flowers. 1t is
known that insects are most important
agents in the fertilization of flowers,
and this is true of the flowers that
bloom among the SHOWS of the Alps as
well as of those that cover the meadows
far below.
But it has been observed. at the same
time, that the bees and butterflies
which ascend the mountains in order
to visit the brightly colored flowers
growing there perish by the thousand
in the sudden cold that envelopes the
peaks and glaciers at nightfall.
1t is only the extraordinary attrac-
tiveness of the beautiful mountain
flowers that induces their insect admir-
ers to venture into the perilous realm of
snow and ice.
Here then, according to the view of
Doctor Jolly. the principal of the sur
vival of the fittest in the struggle for
existence comes into play Those
Alpine flowers which possess the most
vivid colors succeed in attracting the
insects whose visits are essential to
their propagation, while the less beau
tifully colored blossoms are neglected.
The result is that only the brighter
flowers are able to survive, and hence
the peculiar brilliancy of the fora of
the high Alps.-Youth's Companion.

THE BEAUTY OF LONDON Foos
And other Artistic Attractions a French
man Notes of the Great City.

And other Artistic Attractions a French
man Notes of the Great City.
NJ. Augustin Filon, in an article on
the buildings and characteristics of the
British metropolis contributed to a con-
temporary. has discovered that Lon
don fog, with the sun trying to filter
through it, is idealistic and suggestive,
as well as sometimes more artistic in
its effects than the monotonous lumin-
osity of the south. A Thames fog. in
fact, bathes London landscapes in a
charming vagueness of outline. Lon
don, on the whole, is, in the estimation
of the French author, an admira BILE
city. despite the ugliness of its monu-
ments and the sordid leprousness of its
slums. Its parks are not gardens. but
woods and meadows, bits of living
nature thrown like GASES into the desert
of bricks and mortar. Even if London
ers had the folly to build in Hyde Park
or Regents Park, they would always
have the Thames, so rich in varied
aspect that an artist once said to the
writer on a steamboat between Graves
end and London Bridge that he had
seen during the river journey two hun
dred pictorial masterpieces.
There is likewise a subject for Won
der, according to NJ. Filon, in the inn
mensity of the place which imparts
special alton and gives the idea
of a life completed, and at the same
time peaceful, laborious, subdued and
submissive to law. The French author
has also some interesting remarks to
offer on London buildings of note. A
Partisan in London took the Law
Courts for big church. and made the
same mistake about Whitehall. NJ.
Filon calls st. Pancras Station feudal
chateau of the beginning of the six
teenth century, while Euston is a
Babylonian or Cyclopean building,
resembling the tomb of prehistoric
conqueror.- Telegraph.
