writer In Paper W GRID.
We have had a great variety of carpet
materials, first and last, and a good many
uses have been made of paper, but the two
have never before been identified. Now,
however, We are informed that carpets are
being made of paper, and the following de-
scr1ption of the process is made public:
The stock used must be Of long fibre, in
order TO give strength to the paper. All
such as are to be colored must be dyed in
the pulp to obtain uniform color through
out. Colors must be fast.
Every lot of the same color must match
to shade. as il cannot be changed when
once done. The paper must be of uniform
thickness throughout the width and length
of the roll. for though color may be right,
coarse yarn viii not shade alike. AS the
yarn is twisted on a ring frame, the ut
most cleanliness must be observed not to
stain the yarn with oil or dirty fingers, for,
while. unlike the other yarn. 1t is not
cleansed, hence, If dirty, and is not dis
covered by subsequent handling. it goes
into the carpet and TO the consumer.
When rolls of cut paper are the
desired height, the shaft is taken out the
nut removed and the shaft drawn out. leav-
ing the paper, each stripe with its ring to
be separated from the other by a knife
for that purpose. After separation these
little rolls are soaked in water until
thoroughly impregnated, then taken out
and left TO drain. when IL is ready for the
spinning frame. and il is twisted like any
other yarn. The yarn is then dried, wound
into cops and is then ready for the loom

To Stop n Runaway Horse.
Kansas City Journal.


Scarcely a week passes in any year that
human lives are not jeopardZed by horses
taking fright and running away. The man
who can devise some means which will
surely prevent this will be a great public
benefactor. Some one who processes to
know states that runaway accidents seldom
occur in Russia. The means used in pre-
venting them is very simple.
1t is asserted that. in Russia horse that
is addicted to the habit of running away
has a thin cord with a running moose
around his neck at the neCkstrGp, and the
end is tied to the dashboard.
AT Rome" says this informant, 81 saw
in the Corso a phaeIon with two spirited
horses, bolt. They were driven by lady,
and / expected to see instant destruction.
But the lady coOlly grasped a thin cord,
and, within thirty yards, the horses came
to a full stop. l afterward met the lady
at Nice and expressed surprise at the skill
with which she stopped the runaways.
''She treated il as trifle, and told me
accidents from runaway horses are un-
known in Russia, as no one but a lunatic
would drive without a cord. When a horse
bolts he always takes the bit in his teeth
and the skill of the driver is useless. The
moment the pressure comes on the wind
pipe the horse knows he has met his mas
ter"

WHY STARS SEEM STILL
Although all the stars in the armament
which are suns like our own-are probably
in motion. yet so far away are they that
their movements are scarcely perceptible;
nor can we detect more than the slightest
change in position, in the case of some of
them. in a whole lifetime. owing to the
immense distances which separate them
from the earth. An express train travelling
forty miles an hour, seen from distance
of two miles, would appear to the OBJ
server almost stationary. So it is with the
stars. and the brilliant Arcturus, which
moves through space three times faster
than the earth, would require a century to
move over a distance equal to one-eighth
part OF the apparent diameter Of the moon.
These motions observed among the stars
afford convenient demonstration of New
tons famous law Of universal SrdVitatlOn.
We have already referred to the changes
taking place in the appearance of the Big
Dipper, which forms a part of the con-
stellation Ursa Major or the Great Bear.
After careful and lonS-continued study OF
the motions OF the seven stars in the big
Dipper," Prof Camille Flammarion, dis
unguished French astronomer, has been
able to represent the outlines formed by
them at various times in the past, and
those which they will form in the distant
future. One hundred thousand years ago,
according TO the ingenious calculations Of
Prof Flammarion, the stars now forming
the big Dipper' were arranged in the out
line of a large and irregular-Shaped cross
and 100000 years hence they viii assume the
outline of an elongated and inverted Dip

of these far-on suns. flaming in the i'm
menslty or space, is swept along in a move
ment so rapid that the human mind can
hardly conceive it, and almost grows
weary even in its contemplation; and the
many years have elapsed there will be

For the LeIt-Handed.
New York Tribune.

A great many left-handed people do not
know that left-handed scissors are manu-
featured for their benefit. Also for cooks
who have the physical popularity there
are left-handed frying-pans with the Zip
on the side opposite to the one where it
is usually found; and sometimes these
utensils have both right and left lips.
The enthusiastic horsewoman generally
owns a side-saddle arranged for the left
side instead of the right, and uses il oc-
casionally; but there are in this country
few women who ride enough to incur any
crookedness of the figure caused by per
sistent occupancy of the ordinary saddle,
or for whom il is worth while TO obtain
the command of ones self and ones horse
involved in the ability 10 ride on one side
of the animal as well as on the other. So
the special saddle and the special riding
skirt generally hang up unused.
