Flannel Clothinc.

If dry wooden clothing be put on i'm
mediatelv after exercise, the vapor from
the surface Of the body is condensed in
and upon the wool, and the heat which
has become latent in the process Of evap-
Grafton is again given off. Flannel
clothes, therefore, put on during perSpi-
ration always feel warm, whereas cot
ton and linen articles allow the perspira-
ton TO pass through them, so that the
evaporation and cooling processes are
unchecked.
There is therefore an obvious reason
for selecting flannel clothing for wear
ing after active exertion. Anindividual
who is perspiring freely is far less likely
to take cold when clad in flannel than
when clad in linen or cotton. DR.. Poore
thinks that cotton might be made TO &C
quire properties similar to those of wool
by adopting a looser method of weaving
the material. If linen or cotton be woven
sin loose, porous fashion, these fabrics
then become, as heat retainers, scarcely
inferior to WOOL"
Wooden fabrics cause a sensation of
warmth in virtue of another popularity
which they possess. They often present
rough surface, which, coming into con-
tact with the skin, causes friction and
therefore more or less warmth. The II
ritation thus produced is intolerable to
some persons, but if it can be borne with
for short time the skin often gets ac-
customed to the notwithstanding

That Tempting Wedding Cake.

A country visitor to the metropolis
was wandering along Oxford street agape
at the many wondrous things that met
his view. Passing large confectionery
establishment, he paused to look at the
good things temptingly displayed in the
window, a huge bride cake particularly
striking his fancy. Unable to resist the
temptation, he entered the shop and in
Quired the price.
"Ten pounds" replied the shopman,
eying curiously the very unlikely pur-
chaser, who looked not bit like pro-
spective bridegroom.
"Ten pounds!' echoed the countryman
in establishment.
Then he pondered the matter for a
few moments and fairly petriied the
shopman by saying:

Railway Damages In Germany.

1t is probably little known that the
material damages resulting from railroad
accidents in Germany have to be borne
by the officials who on investigation are
found to have caused them and from
whose salaries they are gradually de-
Quoted. It may be supposed the railway
administrations are rarely fully compen-
stated. A case is known of an official, at
present stationed at Berlin, who for Il
years has had to submit to deduction,
but requires 16 years more to work off

up for the recent disastrous collision at
the Silesian station will doubtless leave
q heavy debt for his heirs to settle.-Par-

Beginning to think of "What shall do
The world to brighten and beautify."
The Spring baby first said, LET me try"
So she put ON dress of freshest green,
With trimmings the loveliest ever seem
Trimmings Of tulips and hyacinths rare
And trailing arbutus looped everywhere.
sHow perfectly beautiful" Summer said;
''But wait till you nee my dress of red
And darker green with golden spots,
Trimmed with roses and pinks and forget
me-nots."
."Pooh!" said Autumn, my dress will be
A more substantial one, you'll see;
With skirt of finest and yellowest wheat
A girdle of grapes and squash turban
neat"
Then Winter came silently tripping along
Chaunting softly Christmas song,
In . pure white dress with jewels spread,
Holding basket of books ON his head.

Coins from Private Mints.

The Constitution of the United States
nrovides that no State shall coin
money: but it seems that individuals
miohi do 80. up till about the time OF
the late civil war. OF course, IL mas
always been against the law to coun-
terfeit or initiate the coinage OF the
United States, and so. necessarily,
coin issued by q private mint would
have to be so distinctive in shape or
markings as to show that 1t was not
intended to pass as Federal money.
For this reason the $50 gold coins or
tokens issued by several private minis
in California during the flush times OF
the 5O's were octagonal in shape. Gold
coins were also issued by the Mormons
of Utah at about the same time, ana
the same thing had been done by par
ties in Georgia and North Carolina.
Probably the latest OF these private
mints was the one established in Dem
YER in the early 60's 1t Is said that
the coinage of this establishment being
brought to the attention OF Secretary
Chase. that eminent financier was
much astonished to find respectable
firm OF bankers engaged in making and
uttering money, and was still further
surprised when the Attorney General
of the United States declared they mao
the right to do so. This incident caused
the passage OF q law absolutely prohib-
ting individuals from issuing or circu-
lating anything intended in any man.

Why, Indeed?

Why should police officer in chase
Of a fugitive in the street feel called
upon to use firearms? That is query
which it is difficult for the police to
answer. A man on the police force
draws a good salary-about twice as
much as, with his education, he could
make in any business. He is supposed
to be in good physical condition, so that
he may run down any criminal who
seeks safety in fight. But it would be
safe to wager that no two police officers
in ten on the San Francisco force could
overtake fairly athletic criminal II
the fugitive were given start OF half
q block. The majority of our police
are too fat; their lungs are in such
poor condition:that il fugitive runs up
q steep street the chances are all In
favor OF his escape. 1t is only fair to
demand of the police that they keep in
as fair condition as the regular army,
but every one Knows that such a COM
parison would be fatal to the force.
Why not have regular police inspec-
ton and throw out the men who ac-
cumulate fat on beer and idleness?-

A WATER-sPoUT IN THE WAY
Marrow Escape Of q Vessel In ths
West Indies.

From an article in Scribner ("On
Piratical Seas'O which describes a
merchants voyages to the West
Indies we make this extract:
We perceived to the right of us the
dark clouds in motion at q great dis
lance, and under them a peculiarly
formed pyramid which seemed to
connect the clouds and the ocean.
During the space Of nearly half an
hour it approached nearer and nearer
toward us, in a direction precisely in
line across our vessel. This was a
water-spout of the largest class, and
caused much apprehension for our
safety. l even heard our Oldest sal
lor, Hugh, who was at the helm,
make use Of the following expression,
while the tobacco-juice was trickling
from the corners of his mouth II
have seen many water-spout, but
I'll be blowed If ever saw one coming
so straight on board as this"
During this half-hour we still re-
manned in perfect calm, the water
spout bringing the wind along with it.
We did not spend our time in idle
conjecture, but endeavored il posi-
BILE to avert the impending calamity.
1t had been stated that sudden con-
cussion of the air would break the
connection of water between the
cloud and the sea, and so dispense
the descending column before it
reached a solid obstacle. / had a
large fowling-piece on board which I
determined to load and discharge re-
peatedly in the direction of the water
spout at the proper time. Unfortu-
nately, however, my powder was in
my large trunk, slowed away between
decks in such a manner that every
effort to get at it failed, and l lost
the opportunity to test the efficacy
Of this experiment. At length the
moment of our trial drew near. The
water-spout passed across us few
yards ahead of our bows, and was
rent asunder by our jib-boom, so
that the great weight of the water
fell on the surface of the sea. Never
theless, the conclusion and turmoil
created by the bursting so close upon
us was so great, that our vessel went
spinning around for some minutes
like block in boiling kettle, and
we were completely immersed in q
spray of water and blast of wind,
