The brass and bronze trade is kept
alive by the religious customs of the
Hindoos, who arc not allowed to use
wooden and earthenware vessels freely,
and brass and bronze are to them as i'm
portant as glass and china to the west
erners. Almost all Hindoo utensils are
of brass, copper or bronze, and it is the
custom to present the female portion of
Hindoo family with valuable bat
terie de cuisine, made either of brass or
copper, and a still existing Hindoo GER
emony is that of carrying the utensils in
procession at the wedding The result
of this custom is that almost all the
platters, trays, bowls, nut crackers and
all brass and copper utensils are most
beautifully ornamented, and there are
lovely combinations of brass and copper
and silver and copper. All Hindoo wo-
men used to have lovely brass caskets
covered with Communications called chel-
lams, manufactured in Malabar in
which they kept their jewels, but these
are fast being replaced by the vulgar
English japanned dispatch box. At Siv-
aganga a beautiful but seldom patron
lied brass trade exists, which makes
toys and most lifelike representations
of animals, lizards. frogs, etc.-Chica-

He was all that's brave and manly.
He had emulated Stanley and had trav-
ersed wilds where white man ne'er
had set his foot before He just gloried
in battle, for he loved to hear the rat
tie of the bullets and the sounding of
the cannon's deadly roar.
He would fight a hundred people. He
would climb the highest steeple, though
he knew by that rash act he was court
ing certain death. He would face rag
ing tiger, he would swim the turbid
Niger, and he'd walk up to a cannon S
mouth and never bate his breath.
There was nothing that could scare
him. He ventured in the harem Of the
widest, tiercest pasha that e'er lived on
Turkeys coast In a graveyard he had
wandered late at night, and there had
pondered if it would be his fortune just
to see real ghost.
He was brave beyond all question.
There had ne'er been suggestion that
the stories Of his boldness were not
made up of the truth; but, alas, his
courage failed him when a rotten molar
allied him, for he didn't have the nerve

Warmth In Old Age.

In old age remember that warmth and
an even temperature are just as essential
to the welfare of the aged as proper
food. Many old persons die from bron-
chitis, for example, induced by exposure
to temperature which, harmless to
the young and middle aged, acts severe
ly on the lungs of the old. The bedroom
of an old person should be kept at heat
of not less than 60 degrees, and natural
ly chills should be especially guarded
against In respect of the feeding of tho
aged, second childhood is like the first
childhood, Little and often, is the
motto, and old people should have their
food given them in state of easy di-
gestion, above all things. New York

To Whiten the Hands,

Coarse and red hands may be whiten-
cd by using few grains of chloride of
lime added to warm soft water for
washing. All rings and bracelets must
be removed before this is used, as the
chloride of lime will tarnish them. A
soap containing this ingredient may be
prepared as follows: White powdered
CASTLE SOAP pound; dry chloride of
lime, 4 to 2 ounces. Mix and beat
this up i'll Il mortar to Il soft mass with
a sufficient quantity of rectitied spirit.
Divide the mass into tablets and wrap
it up in oil silk. 1t may be scented by
adding to the mixture couple of drains
of oil of verbena. In using chloride Of
lime it is very important to be careful
to avoid getting any of the powder into
the eyes, as it is exceedingly irritating
and may even cause blindness. .-Popu-

Algol, the Mystery of the Skies.

Algol, "the variable star of the con-
stellation of Parseus," is regarded
among astronomers as the greatest mys-
terry of the heavens. Its light usually
remains constant and uniform for a
period of from As to 60 hours. 1t then
commences to gradually fade from view,
and in less than four hours diminishes
to an insignificant point of light. After
remaining in state of semiobscuration
for a period of time, varying from 15 to
80 minutes, it again regains its former
brilliancy. Astronomers believe that
some large dead and dark world revolves
between us and Algol, but this is the
disputed point, Il mysterxwhi will,
in all probability, never be satisfactorily

YELLOW CUR AND COYOTE.
Each In Turn Assumed the Aggressive In
an Amusing Fight.


There We're three of us in wagon
driving from Sprir 2dale, on the rail-
road, to Hunters Hot Springs. We had
forded the sloughs that during the sea-
son of high water in the Yellowstone
cut off the approaches to the bridge, the
water filling the wagon box and taking
the horses almost off their feet at times
in the swirl of the current. One of the
dogs from the hotel joined us ON terra
firma-a mild faced yellow cur, with no
fighting qualities. He was trotting along
on the road few rods ahead of the
horses when there came Looping across
the open country big coyote, making
straight for him.
Away went the dog, and after him
the wolf. The dog made stand and
took nip at the wolf Then the wolf
ran, and the dog pursued, but as soon as
the dog had overtaken his enemy he
changed his mind about attacking him
and turned back Now the wolf gained
courage and took up the chase, running
the yellow cur clear up to the porch Of
the hotel at the springs The party in
the team got good deal of fun out of
the novel turn about hunt.
Mendenhall, the landlord, whipped
up the team, and we bounced along at a
tremendous pace, shouting, "Go it,
wolfr' and 600 it, dog!' The landlord
yelled encouragement to Stub, the dog,
but Stub had no mind for tussle with
the sharp toothed, long nosed brute and
was happy to gain the shelter of the ho-
tel. The coyote trotted off across the
hills. 'What things a fellow will see
when he hasn't his gun with him!" re-
marked one of the men in the wagon

Aluminium and Glass,

M. Charles Margot of the physical
laboratory of the University of Geneva,
says L'Industrie, has made curious
discovery. He has found that by rub
bing ON glass with an aluminium point
we obtain clear metallic lines, which
cannot be removed by washing, no mat
ter how often repeated. Many applica-
tions can be suggested for aluminium in
this direction. 1t can be used instead of
the engraver's tool in cutting designs
on glass. With the aluminium pencil
diamonds can be distinguished from i'm
itation, since it will make no mark on a
diamond. 1t is possible that the new
discovery may make great difference
in the making of cut or engraved glass.

FAMOUS ARCHERS.
Stories of Wonderful Skill with Bow and
Arrow.


The expression drawing long bow"
does not Of necessity mean the telling
of falsehood. 1t sometimes refers to q
wonderful story, which may be true
enough, but which is so marvellous as
to require a firm trust in the veracity
Of the narrator to enable the hearer to
believe it. Some of the longest bows of
and arrows.
These stories began long ago. Virgil,
in the ''Enoid," tells of four archers
who were shooting for prize, the mark
being pigI-n tied by cord to the
mast Of ship. The first man hit the
mast, the second cut the cord, and the
third shot the pigeon as it flew away
The fourth archer, having nothing left
to shoot, drew his bow and sent his ar
row flying toward the sky with such
speed that the friction of the air set the
feathers on fire, and it swept ON, like
meteor, to disappear in the clouds.
The stories told of Robin Hoods
archery, illustrated by his wonderful
performance as Locksley in Scott's
"Ivanhoe," are also decided strain
upon a sensible PERSONS credulity. The
famous story of William Tell, doubted
by many persons, is believed by others
to have a foundation Of fact. There was
Dane named Foke of whom the same
story is told. and William of Cloudes-
ley, an Englishman, is said to have shot
an apple from his sons head merely to
show his expertness.
Most stories of bows and arrows re
late to the accurate aim of the archers,
but Frenchman, Blaise de Vigenere,
tells one that shows the tremendous
force with which an arrow may be pro-
PEELED if the bow be strong and long
enough. According to his own account
of the matter, he saw Barbarossa, a
Turk, admiral of ship called the
Grand Solyman, send an arrow from
his bow right through cannon BALL

THE SEAS INVASION.


Old Ocean Is Tearing Away the English
Coast by the Rod.
The fiat marshes of Pevensey have
gained half Il mile since the days of Ed
ward II, when the sea almost washed
the walls of the castle that now stands
high and dry inland The same thing
has happened on the Romney flats,
where the ancient castle of Lympne has
receded mile or more. Such spots as
these look as though the next spring tide
would add their grassy meadows to the
lost ground of sea bottom. But on the
rocky parts of the Antrim coast we have
the sea slowly working its way inland,
despite the rock Notifications and stony
intrenchments that look so resistless.
Under the waves lie tracts of bogland
that once upon time must have stood
well in shore, and Dunluce bears wit
ness to the ravages that have taken place
within few centuries, a few ticks Of
the clock as geologists count time.
The sea, ever washing and tearing at
its foundations, one day broke down a
considerable part of the castle, and sew
eral persons were killed by the catas-
trophe. This was in the days when
Dunluce was held by other tenants than
the birds. Then home and strong
hold, now but memento of past joy
and glory.
Another marked example of the inse-
curity of rock defenses where the sea is
the invader occurs at Filey, on the
Yorkshire coast. Only 20 years ago
there was pathway running around the
ancient church of st. Hilda, which is
built on the solid rock. Now this is so
broken away on the seaward side that
it is impossible. Another 20 years may
see the church undermined. -Argosy.

soeERING UP IN TURKISH BATHS.
The Bibulous Rounder's Sure Method of
Having u Clear Head Next Morning


Having Clear Head Next Morning
Hardly week passes, said the
manager of an up town Turkish bath
establishment, the doors of which are
never closed THAT we are not called
upon to certify to the fact that some
gentleman has passed the night with
us. The all night business is to great
extent mado up from gentlemen who
have drank little more than is good
for them. They do not want to go home
in that condition and are anxious to be
all right i'll the morning.
'They come in here, take q sweat, a
shampoo, a plunge and rundown and
are then prepared for a refreshing sleep,
awakening in the morning little the
worse for the indiscretion of the early
evening before. That the explanation Of
their whereabouts is not satisfactory to
wives or parents in many instances l
judge from the frequency Of application
for proof of the same.
"Not long since a lawyer clerk went
over the register of our patrons for Pc
riod of two years, and, fortunately per-

est the research was made, found his
