Waiting For City Friend With Three Jart
of ButtermiIk,


The last passenger to leave the 4:30
train on the Michigan Central railroad
after it dreTT to standstill one summer
afternoon was a little old woman IN
black. A wisp of gray hair struggled
from under an old fashioned poke bon
net, and a pair Of kindly blue eyes
looked out from behind her steel trimmed
spectacles. In one hand she carried a
huge, shiny valise, the key of which
was tied to the handle with strip Of
calico cloth. When she was part way up
the platform, she stopped, with trou-
bled look, and watched the bsggagemen
toll by Will, their loaded trucks Pres
emily she dropped the valise and opened
big black fan which was fastened to
her waist by velvet ribbon. After she
had waited some time one of the depot
ushers came along and asked if he could
be of any service to her.
why, thank you, think not, 2" she
answered. 81 am waiting for Dick Rob-
inson.
1he depot usher hurried on and paid
an. When he came back half hour
later, she was still standing where he
had left her, gently tanning herself
with the black fan. ''Has your friend
come YETI" asked the usher.
NO." she answered. Ellis watch
must have been slow"
''Did he expect you by this train?"
"Well, you see, it's this way: Last
summer Dick and his wife came over to
Briggsburg to visit the Coopers. While
they were there they came over often to
my place to get drink of buttermilk.
Well, we got friendly, and Sarah told
me a lot of Things about Chicago, and
that she couldn't by no manner of
means get buttermilk in the city. Be-
fore Dick went back he came around
and says: Mrs. Beggs, just take run
up to Chicago next summer and visit
us. Let US know when you're coming,
and I'll meet you at the depot. And so
I'm here. and I've got three jars of
fresh buttermilk for them in that bag. !"
The depot usher helped the little old
woman to seat in the waiting room,
and then he searched the directory for
Richard Robinson. His charge couldn t
help him much, because she didn It know
Dicks occupation.
"All l know" she explained, sis
that he's genuine gentleman, and if
be had got my letter he'd "a been here. ="
The usher made list of two or three
addresses and put the woman in charge
of a trusty cabman, with instructions to
find Dick. Two hours later the driver
came back with the report that his fare
was delivering her buttermilk Chi.

Venetian Mirrors.

The beauty and almost absolute per
lection characterizing the mirrors pro.
duoed in the manufactures of Venice
are mainly due, it is said, to the pecul-
lar solution applied to the surface. Pro
hminary to this application the glass Is
thoroughly cleaned with wet whiting,
then washed with distilled water and
prepared for the silver with sensitiz-
ing solution Of tin, which is well rinsea
off Immediately before its removal to
the silvering table, and the latter be-
ing raised to the proper temperature
the glass is laid and the silvering solu-
ton at once poured over it before the
heat of the table has time to dry any
part of the surface of the glass. This So
luton used is prepared as follows: LIZ
one-half Liter of distilled water 100
grains of nitrate of silver are dissolved,
TO this being added So grains of liquid
ammonia of O. SO specific gravity. The
mixture is filtered and made up to eight
hters with distilled water, and z $40
grams of tartaric acid dissolved in 80
grams Of water are mixed with the so.

over the glass meter to be siIvered, the

wiping with channels the surface is
treated a second time with solution

The Chinese lrarr.

The war in the east may interfere
with the holding of the SO called Chi
nese worlds fair which has been an
nounced to take place this year. 1t is
not worlds fair in the ordinary sense
of the word, since all exhibits are to be
furnished by China itself, but if half
the reports sent out are true it has been
planned to exceed all other fairs by
whatever name called. The expense is
estimated at 5000, 900, 600, and it is an
nounced in honor of the sixty first ami
versary of the birth of the empress dow
ager. Apart from the main exhibition
at Peking, there are to be celebrations
in every town Of the empire 1t seems
to be rather national festival than a
display of arts, manufacturers and agri-
culture, though this part of the fair"
is planned on an enormous scale. Phil

The commonest people of Naples sci.

laughingly reasonable in price and
varied in kind. Besides the ever present

are the frutti di mare, sea fruits, - in

by the ever hungry lazzaronie.
Then there a2e roasted fishes of aD

iumpling or cake made of lamb meat

rather tough cake made principally OF
honey. Then nothing appeals to the laz
zaroni appetite so insidiously as the ia
nous Easter cake of Cassatello, which
is sprinkled most temptingly with fluid
pork fat, and in which whole eggs are
baked, shell and all, questionable
dainty to uneducated palates.
The lazzaroni women are seldom
beautiful and generally not even pretty.
They are usually poorly built, with
swarthy compilations and irregular fea-

pair of eyes of great beauty, but rarely.
The Neapolitan women are not to b
