A contributor to the Pail Mall Mag
azine was travelling in Greece and had
occasion to send to the laundry a white
shirt and collar He thus describes
the result:
The shirt came back resolved, as 1t
were, into its primitive elements-that
is to say, it was piece of linen of If
regular shape. The collar / never saw
again alive but instead q curious strip
of linen, which baffied conjecture for
the time.
Grecian washing is conducted tnthe
following manner; Some 10 or 2 wom-
en- come down TO the stream, with large
masses Of garments, which they throw
indiscriminately into the water. They
then sit down and talk, while their
children poke at the clothes with sicks
to prevent their being carried down the
stream and mingling eventually with
the Alpheius and the infinite sea.
After this has gone ON till the clothes
are all soaked and have every resason
to be as full of holes rs net, and the
children are tired, they are taken out
on the bank, or, more likely, on the dry
shingle of the river and are encouraged
to get dry, to which end they are beat
en- in lively and sympathetic manner
with large, jagged pieces of wood

Quick work.

''To look at railway locomotive one
would scarcely think that by any pos
sibility it could be put together in less
than one day." remarked Thomas G.
Bick of Montreal, yet that astonishing
feat was accomplished not long ago in
England, the work occupying less than
10 hours from the driving of the first
rivet to the application of the final coat
of varnish. The start was made at 8
o'clock in the morning, and Il minutes
afterward the first rivet was put into
the frames. The cylinders We're set and
fixed in l hour and Z minutes. -Four
hours and IL minutes from the start the
boiler was in place, and l hour and 20
minutes later the engine was wheeled.
The wheels were supplied just as they
left the shops, and the eccentric sheaves
had to be fixed and the axle boxes, con-
Meeting rod and coupling rod brasses
fitted by the erectors. Eight hours and
% minutes from the start the valve set
ting was completed, and the painting of
the engine was begun . minutes later.
In hours and A minutes from the
start the engine and tender Were COM
pleted in every detail. One hundred and
thirty seven men We're engaged i'll the

ular service ON the day it was completed
and has been running continuously ever
since. st Louis Globe-Democrat.

Convenient Fishing.

In Yellowstone lake an expert angler
can catch trout and boil it without tax
ing the fish off the hook. Wild as the
statement seems, it is absolutely correct,
and / have done it myself more than
once There are in the lake several
small basins containing boiling springs,
although the water in the lake itself
is almost icy cold. Trout abound in
every part of the lake, and man can
by standing ON the rocky ledge around
one of the hot springs catch trout
with a line and transfer the fish, hook
in mouth, to the hot spring behind him.
It will die in few seconds and be fair
ly well boiled in a half an hour The
number of anglers who have actually
caught and boiled fish in this almost
miraculous manner may not be very
large, but there are at least 100 reliable
citizens with whom l am acquainted
who are prepared to make affidavit that
they have done so.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat

A Daring Trick.

Zone of the most daring tricks | ever
came across, said H. f. Farrell, a New
York attorney, was in the case of a
man who deliberately impersonated a
lawyers clerk and persuaded very sick
man to sign will without reading it,
and which disposed of his property in
direct opposition to his wishes. 1t was
a case of a family dispute, and the old
gentleman. who was quite wealthy, had
decided to disinherit his eldest son and
leave the property to a younger one
Being warned by his doctor that he had
only day or two more TO live, he sent
instructions to his attorney to draft his
will and send it down promptly for sig
nature.
while the lawyer was preparing the
document representative of the eldest
son arrived with a paper, which he said
was the will prepared by the sick mans
attorney The will was signed without
hesitation and duly witnessed, and when
two hours later the lawyers clerk ar
rived with the genuine will he was not
allowed to enter the house, being warned
off the premises by the housekeeper On
his return to the Office his employer saw
at once that fraud had been commit
ted, and he FASTENED to the house to
have it set right In the meantime,
however, the sick man had become I'M
conscious, and he died without being
able TO execute will after his own
wishes. The bogus will was upset, but
the fraud could never be sufficiently
proved to convict the man suspected of
coneocting it, and he inherited quite a
large sum of the money as next of kin. .

A SUMNER CHAPEAU.

A slender loop of Russian lace.
A paris straw in green,
A crescent of pink roses peeping
Meath the nicotine;
Tiptilted, jaunty was the brim-
On her it reached perfection.
She toyed with it, then asked the price
And sighed in deep detection.
That night she penned a triolet,
A breezy coup d'etat,
And sealed the rhymes and sent them of
But did not tell mamma.
II was an airy bit of verse,
Society confectiOn,.
But pouting Bess did half confess
To tear it on rejection.
Next Sunday morn within pew
A little saint saw At
To add unto the litany
One prayer not found in It.
No lily in the chancel looked
More fair than she, ween,
Who wore jaunty paris straw,
The famous nicotine.

1t is marvellous to see the perfection
which some people who have become
deaf in middle life attain in lip read
ing 1t is something that can be learned
by oneself after the first few lessons.
A hand glass is all that is necessary for
the regular study, and every person met
furnishes practice. Like all study, it
requires perseverance to become an adept,
but the reward is so great in this case
that it is worth working for even if one
is not deaf Soon we may appreciate the
advantages of being able to speak to a
person silently and from a distance and
to receive what is said to us without
depending ON the easily confused ear,
Soon lip reading may become fad and
any one who wishes to be accomplished
IN this way while it is a rarity would
better begin at once. Parents with chill
dren of defective hearing are almost in
sxcusable if they neglect having such
children taught lip reading while it is
easily learned Newport News.
