This is said to be an excellent remedy
for earache: Tie up pinch of black
pepper on a bit of cotton batting, dip in
sweet oil and insert in the ear. Tie a
silk handkerchief or flannel band over the
ear to keep it warm.
Face your gowns with denim, which
wears better and does not rub your
shoes as canvas does.
Warm your bread knife before cutting
hot bread, and the slices will be smooth
and nice

How CellulOid Is Made.

Celluloid is prepared from dry gun cot
ton treated to solution of camphor in the
least possible quantity of alcohol. Popular
Science News says: AS layer is placed OF
layer of the gun cotton the solution is
sprinkled upon it until finally it sinks into
transparent Jumps. These are first worked
between cold iron rollers and then roller:
heated by steam, forming layers that arr
finally subjected to hydraulic pressure
After thorough drying of the resulting
plates they are nodded while warm, cut ant
turned into any desired form. The imita
ton of amber, coral and the like is accom-
plished by coloring the Jumps of celluloit
as first formed and pressing various color
together in the proportions and patterns de
sired. Noncombustible celluloid has NO
vet been made

There was . large congregation, yester-
day morning, at the, conservation Of St.
Barnabas' chapel. The altar was beaati.
fully decorated, and the service began a,
at 10 o'clock with the reading of the request
for conservation by Mr.. James Bridge, who
met Bishop Nicely and the clergymen in
possession at the entrance to the chapel.
This was followed by the reading of the
2ith Psalm alternately by the bishop and
clergy, as they went up the aisle into the
chancel. where the papers of donation were
presented by Mr.. Bridge. The bishop was
assisted in the service by the Rev. A. W
Snyder of St. Marks In this city, the Rev
r. W. Plant of Christ church, Gardiner
and the Rev. W. F. Livingston, in charge
of St. Barnabas' chapel. A class for con.
firmation was presented to the bishop, who
then preached sermon upon the subject
of "Consecration," closing with an address
to those confirmed. The singing led by the
choir was excellent and the entire service
most interesting.

It's proud man that Professor r. 7.
Garner must be. He has seen more of the
gorilla in private life than any white man
on record. He went and sat in cage in
the wilds of Africa and was lat home" tic
gorilas With his foot on his native bush
we are given to understand, the gorilla is a
most genial companion. In a way, too, he
is affable, only inarticulate. 1t is not al
ways easy to catch what he says. Still the
professor believes that he has discovered
the significance of a number of everyday
gorilla phrases which he has translated foi
the benefit of mankind.

Shadows From Steam.

Steam is composed of vapor of different
degrees of intensity, intermingled usually
with some air. so that the rays of light en-
tering it are not uniformly refracted. and
therefore interfere with and neutralize each
other to considerable degree. This &C.
counts for the fact that shadows are cast
by steam. Water does not cast shadow
for the reason that when it is in a state OF
rest it is of almost uniform density, and the
rays of light, although they may be re-
fracted, pass through it equally impeded in
narallel lines.

box on each side of the house, so
that the husbands would be directly
opposite to their wives:
When the live husbands left
home last evening each told his
his wife he would be detained
down town on business until late.
They gave various excuses, but
their wives were not urgent in
the request for their society, as
they, too, had engagements.
The orchestra was playing when
Stumer aud his friends entered
the box. In few minutes one Of
the gentlemen espied his wife il
the opposite box. He fidgeted and
wanted to leave, but Simmer re-
strained him. Finally the five
ladies on the one side observed t.
gentlemen on the other 81 intently
that a mutual recognition took
place.
After tie curtain fell Stumrr
tried to explain the joke aud was
compelled to take the entire par y
la supper to do so. There are still
murmurings in five once happy
homes, and, it is said, divorces will
follow.
