A Sunken Garden,

One of the most beautiful features
In Paramount park during the sum
mer time is the Sunken garden. The
famous Horticultural hall, which was
left over since the Centennial expo
sition, is regarded as one of the finest
structures in the United States. The
ground, however, on which it was
erected, being somewhat level, did
not show off the building to it's best
advantage. The designer therefore
lighted on the happy idea of making
the Sunken garden, extending it for
a long distance, which thus afforded
the opportunity of adding to the ap-
parent elevation of the building and
at the same time furnishing a tract
for flower gardening under the mass
ing system known as carpet bedding,
which was at that time SO popular.
One OF the weaknesses of this car
pet bedding system was that from the
point of view of the observer looking
at an angle the best effects could not
be obtained as when looked down en-.
This system of bedding has in a
measure given way to the continual
desire for change which permeates
humanity. 1t is still a great favorite
here and in this case, simply because
OF the opportunity for looking down
upon it, referred to. The avenues
on either side are lined with European
planes. Meehan's Monthly.

Mining an Underground Forest.

The working of a mine the product
of which is timber is an operation
not to be seen every day, but a note
worthy mine of this sort is to be seer
in Tonquin, where in a formation
OF sand, at a depth of from IA to 90
feet, a deposit, tolerably thick, of the
stems of trees, which thousands of
years ago must have existed as an
extensive forest, but eventually be-
came buried by an earthquake or
other similar phenomenon, has been
opened and is now being mined
through gangways.
The timber in no way forms any
kind of coal, but is in good condition,
a fact to be attributed to the large
proportion of rosin which it contains
and to the sandy nature of the
ground in which it lies. The Chinese
work the mine methodically and use
the timber chiefly for sculptural pur-
poses, collins, troughs, etc.
The stems have a diameter of a
yard, are As feet long and appear to
be a kind of fir very similar to pitch

The most famous of Nine. lie Bruins
portraits Of Marie Antoinette is that
representing the queen surrounded
by her children, a painting which
now forms one Of the greatest treas
ures of Versailles. The picture was
first finished for the Salon of 17Se
and was highly praised by King Louis
XVI, who received the artist most
kindly. II do not understand much
about painting" he said, looking at
her work, "but you make me love
it," The painting was hung in one
Of the halls at Versailles, through
which the queen always passed on
her way to and from mass.
After the death of the dauphin
early in 1889, the sight of her child's
picture sc affected her that the paint
ing was removed. The artist always
protested against powder, rouge and
all the absurd and inartistic fashions
OF the day, and often gracefully
draped her sitters in shawls and
scarfs. She invariably wore herself
simple white dresses of muslin or
linen made in tunic style, and gen
orally twisted a muslin kerchief
around her head. - Jenness Miller
