NJ. Nousues. seeing Marshall's bold front
and not seeing any way to gain his point

minute-fnally said: Very well, 60 and

Marshall went away into the room where
the clerks were at work, and which is
carefully guarded by colored man, who
only turns the key when the proper signal
is given, and in few minutes returned
with stack of the semi-official precinct
returns, which are brought in with the
balance of the returns by the precinct
officers.

and rendered Nougues and Clunie every
facility for going over the returns. He
hunted up the key of the Election Com

burning. aud placed il at their disposal.

sixty precincts short.
At that late hour Clunie and Nougues
began the big job of copying the returns
on the more important Candidates, SO as
to have something with which to keep
tally on the official returns and to note the
effect of any doctoring that may be done.
Whether or not Burns and Evans were
closeted with these important papers in
their possession, or any part of them, was
not made known of course. Certainly
Mr.. Evans was not in evidence in open
rooms Of his Office all last evening.

A Bath In Paris.

A bath is all the better for little scent.
A cupful Of eau dc cologne thrown into a
80 gallon tub of water is very fine. Other
things carefully considered, the bather
will be sweet and agreeable for an entire
week. This Is the sort of bath one gets
in Paris for 25 cents. A postal note sent
to n bathing firm will be answered by "a
carriage" at the appointed hour, contain
ing the portable tub, fresh towels and ma
terial for u hot, cold, spirit scented or
milk bath. The Parisienne pays only a
franc for n warm bath, but the warm
milk for her skin is extra. For the virgin
bath, made with few ounces of benzoin,
there is no extra charge. After the toilet,
tub, towels, carriage and servants go off,
to return when called for. Rents are
high, and room is as precious in Paris as
in New York. Only the rich can afford the
luxury of private bath. The modern
apartment houses are built with bath
rooms, but usually they are converted
into service rooms or pantries, from which
the morning coffee and roll or the 4 o'clock
tea and biscuit is served.-New York

Finger Nails Like Bird Claws,

Towhat extremes physical reformation,
for the sake of complying with certain
fashions or as the fulfillment of ascetic
VOWS can be carried is explained by DR.. l.
Ranke of Germany in his recently pub
lished anatomical treatise entitled 'sDer
Mensch." He demonstrates that in all
lands certain forms of malpractice have
been INDUCED in. In old Peru, for in
stance, little children were placed under a
head press, and their scalps were shaped
oblong. This was especially the case with
the daughters of the mobiles and with tho
members Of the royal families. The climax
is reached, however, in the case Of the Chi
nese ascetic who is set apart as a holy man
to serve in tho josshouse, who does not
perform any manual labor and permits his
finger nails, with the exception Of those
on his index finger, to grow several inches
long. Finally they become cntanglod and
resemble somewhat the claws of an old
bird.-New York Press

Egyptian styles of Writing.

The Egyptians had four separate and
distinct styles or forms of writing-tho
hieroglyphic, the hieratic the enchorial
and the Coptic The hieroglyphic was
probably is use as early as the year 1000 b.
G. and at first was made up entirely of
pictures. About the year 1000 b. G. the
hieratic form or style was introduced In
this the picture hieroglyphics were greatly
simplitied, finally developing into forms
purely linear. The enchorial form of
writing was in use among the Egyptians
from about the year 700 b. G. until about
the year 200 a. D., and was still a further
simplitication of the earlier forms, which
finally developed into the alphabetic form
known as the Coptic.-St. Louis Republic.
