An Elephants Toothacho.

The elephant in the Geological gardens
in Paris must be very reasonable crea-
ture. He suffers from toothache, and if
in proportion to his size, he must suffer
a good deal: yet. while it is being stopped
and filed, we are. told,s he is exceedingly
patient, only gently moving his trunk"
when the operation is particularly pain
full. A word of praise is also surely due
to the dentist. A man might have
earned the Victoria Cross and yet have
some misgivings when that trunk began
to wave. In the case in question it was
only employed Ito caress the operator"
by way of fee, when the proceedings
were concluded: but it might have been
put to different use.
The report does not inform us whether
the elephant is placed in chair with
his head well back. position with
which most Of us are only too well &C.
quainted. There is little difficulty, it
seems. in inducing him to take laughing
gas, which he may think beneath his
diglity.-James Payn in illustrated

How German Railway Men Are Paid.

How German Railway Men Are Paid.
An official list has been published of the
wages paid in Germany to the whole of the
railway employees on the state railways in
that empire, beginning at the presidents
of direction. of whom there are eleven.
down to brakemen and the poorer officials
These presidents do not reap colossal
wealth, their pay being, q, little over ESQ a
year only; and this is by long way the
highest salary paid upon the railway.
Telegraph inspectors, of whom there are
only eighteen, get from ESQ to s200; book
keepers and secretaries, G1OO to ESQ; ticket
stampers and Office clerks, from ESQ to ELS;
porters, or rather portiers, and ticket
guards, 94O TO EGO year, and the artisans
and engine drivers get but very poor pay
indeed compared to the pay on English
railways. Drivers and the electric ma
chinists get from ECO to 9100 year the
highest-that is, not over e2 week; stokers
and assistants and this class of helpers,
from 81 week to % shillings, and the
semiguard porters who sit in their great
coats in all weathers on the top Of the train,
get but from $40 to EGO year.-Pau Mall

Waste That Is Now Valuable.

Waste That Is Now Valuable.
A generation ago there was hardly a
mill of any kind that was not troubled
with heap of rubbish or waste material
that it did not know what to do with.
Silk manufacturers saw the rise of this
heap with annoyance, and they took it as
afavor if any one would cart it away and
use it as a fertilizer. An English in
ventor guessed at the possibilities in
this pile of refuse and set about invent
ing machinery to utilize it. Today, as a
result of his foresight and genius, 5000
persons are employed in making the
finest silk plushes, ribbons and veivets
from the refuse piles of silk mills. and
the inventor has grown rich.
The cottonseed oil industry is bet
ter known illustration of economizing
waste, but the dimensions to which the
industry has grown are not so generally
known. The annual product in oil.
cake, lint and hulls from cotton seed.
which a generation ago was allowed to
rot, is $27 Zoo. 900, and it could be made
greater if there was market for the
product.-Philadelphia Press.

A Marine Paradox.

Many of you have stood on the beach at
the seaside ard watched the seas rolling in
heavy breakers after Il storm, curling and
crashing into volumes of foam and broken
water, with such force as to send them
sweeping up almost to your feet. 1t is
through such waves that men who follow
the sea must at times pass in reaching the
shore; but not through one or two on a
smooth, quick shelving beach, but through
thirty or forty, perhaps, covering mile of
treacherOus shoals, and at places surging
between jagged reefs and huge powders.
With intense interest we read of dreadful
shipwrecks almost every week. The sur
vivors tell how the big ship labored and
struggled through monster pillows and
shrieking wind, under black flying clouds
and amid jagged streaks of lightning,
until, mastless and helpless, she lay ex-
hausted in the trough of the sea, and pas
sively received the crashing deluge of
merciless waves until she sank. They
tell how they. poor puny human beings,
chung to helm and pumps till the great
ships struggles were over, and it became
evident that she could carry them no
longer; then how they hastily threw q
cask of water and few provisions into
some remaining boat, and at favorable
moment launched upon the angry waters
in craft SO frail that it seemed as if all on
board were doomed to instant destruction.
Here always comes the strangest part Of
their narrative. Read all such accounts
carefully and you will find that in nearly
every case where such little boat is safe
ly launched from an abandoned ship it
floats and drifts for days and even weeks
on the open ocean, living through the
dreadful tempest which wrecked the big
ship, sailing buoyantly through calmer
seas and finally bringing the survivors
within sight OF other ships or lands.-John
M. Ellicott in St. Nicholas.

Why q Young Woman Was Homo

Why Young Woman Was Honored.
One of the youngest women who has
ever received the cross of the Legion of
Honor is Juliette Dodu. creole In 1870
Nine. Dodu was telegraph operator at
Pithiviers and Juliette was her assistant.
In November of that year the Prussian off,
GERS, who were established at Orleans,
sent a telegram to Prince Frederic Charles
at Pithiviers, describing the exact si6ua-
tion of a part of the French army which
was marching on Glen, and also the ma
neuvers necessary to surround them.
The Prussians, on taking possession at
the telegraph Office, had confined Mile.
Dodu to her room. Through this room,
however, the telegraph wires passed, and
Juliette read the Prussian dispatch She
realized that to tamper with the wires was
an act for which she might be shot, but
she did not hesitate
She sent a dispatch to the subprefect,
who sent it to the French commander. The
Prussian movement was anticipated, and
the French troops were saved When the
Prussians discovered what Juliette had
done, she was condemned to be shot as q
spy, but Frederic Charles pardoned her
and commended her bravery.
She received the military medal, and ir
1873 the French government gave her the
cross. She is now an inspector of primary
schools in Parishes Femmes Decorees.

Do You Neglect Your Toilet?

Too much attention cannot be given to
the toilet. BY this we do not mean to say
that the girl who dawdles before the mir
ror for two or three hours is to be COM
mended, but even her case is superior to
the one that makes boast of being able to
dress in ten or fifteen minutes. 4 woman
who can get up in the morning and be
ready for breakfast in fifteen minutes we
are certain neglects her toilet. In the first
place, to be perfectly clean and healthy, a
bath must be taken every mOrning-a
bath, warm or cold, whichever is best
suited to the constitution, or the safest
and handiest of all, a sponge bath. Now,
it is perfectly impossible for you to per-
form your morning ablution, cleanse your
mouth thoroughly, use tooth, nail and
hairbrush in the short space of fifteen
minutes, and unless you do pay particular
attention to each of these details your
toilet is neglected.
How many girls who have to labor for
their bread and butter immerse their
bodies daily? Not one in five hundred we
can safely say. Every morning they wash
their hands and faces. their ears and necks,
and that suffices from one weeks end to
another. Does not the universal tub
night" proclaim the fact that a weekly
bath from head to foot is all the body ever
receives? Is it any wonder that faces look
pale and istless and frames become too
weak to bear the burden of the day? To
be healthy you must be clean. Cleanliness
is the first thing to be considered about
the toilet. You may stand for hours putting
on the finishing touches to a getup that is
to astonish society, yet it will all go for
naught if you are not absolutely clean
underneath the silken gown of latest style.

Marrying For Pity.

A fair maiden who had weathered the
blasts of some IS summers was in
formed by a BOBBY that unless she mar
ried him he would blow the top of his
head off. It's pity she didn't let him
do it. Heads of that kind ought to be
blown off every time. That is what
they are for. But Desdemona pitied
Othello, and this fair maiden pitied her
lover and went to the parsons with him.
That was only month ago, and now if
he wants to kill himself she will present
him with the best silver mounted pistol
in the market.
Marriage is solemn contract. and it
is better to think twice before signing it.

An American Girl Who Has Succeeded.
Miss Marie Burroughs is striking ex-
ample of what can be accomplished by q
woman endowed with American pluck,
backed by talent and common sense. Only
q few years ago she was a schoolgirl in
San Francisco, her native city, and with
other children was fond of playing truant
and repairing to the sand lots, where she
constructed imaginary theaters and played
the roles Of Juliet and Pauline to the en-
tire satisfaction of her youthful compan-
ions. She was known then as Lille Ar
Kngton. Now she is nightly dividing the
honors with one of the foremost English
actors, and receives 500 week.
One day she was at the sand lots prac-
ticing, crying, ''Stay, Tybalt, stayr" and
repeated the injunction 80 often that an old
carpenter at work close by called out in
impatient tones, "Oh, give Tybalt rest"
'aThat dashed me-" said Miss Burroughs
when relating the incident, land l went
home only to get scolding from my moth
e. for being away so long. "-Detroit Free

Every evening she must meet him at the

At one time she was locked up II days,

A Rare Meat.

The taste of the meat of the Kamchat-
kan bighorn, when quite fresh was slightly
rank, but upon the second day the unpleas-
ant flavor had entirely disappeared, and all
of us agreed that more delicious mutton
did not exist. Nor do l think that this
opinion was the result of the appetites
with which the glorious air of Kamchat-
kan autumn had provided us. Tender,
juicy and with just the right delicate sus-
picion of venison about it, it was fit for
the table of the proverbial alderman, and
if a butcher could only introduce the meat
to the British public in the condition in
which we partook of it he would doubtless
make rapid fortune Blackwood's Mag

Coal in the Argentine Republic

Coal In the Argentine Republic.
The outlook for the recently discov-
cred coal mines in the Argentine Repub-
lie is SO favorable that the railway COM
panies of that country have declined to
renew their contracts with the British
mines for fuel. Hitherto all the coal
burned on the Argentine railroads has
been imported. but it is believed that
the newly discovered mines will furnish
supply entirely sufficient for domestic
consumption Engineering.
