is that the French and German house
keepers become owners of the large
markets and the fashionable restau-
rants of the city. will tell you how
il is. They consider the day OF little

American bakeshop that three OF a

was told that unless ordered 12 it
would be impossible. 1t was not a
question of cost, but | didn't want
them. Leaving the place, l went to
one kept by a German. He was civil,
perfectly willing to send me the small
quantity that asked for, thanked me
very politely for the few cents handed
him and said he would be glad at any
time to take an order, no matter how
small His civility and courtesy made
me his permanent customer.

EOLIAN HARP.

An eolian harp is a very simple
musical instrument. which produces
harmonic sounds when placed in a
current of wind To construct one in
tended to be placed in a window, make
Il box Of thin cedar, pine, or other soft
wood. Make it about five or six
inches deep, seven or eight inches
wide, and of length just equal to the
width of the window in which it is to
placed. Across the top, near each
end, glue strip of wood half an inch
high and a quarter of an inch thick
for bridges. Into the ends of the box
insert wooden pins, like those of
violin, to wind the strings around;
two pins in each end. Make sound
hole in the middle of the top and
string the box with small catgut or
violin blue strings. Fasten one end
of each string to a wooden pin in one
end of the box, and, carrying it over
the bridges, wind it around the turn
ing pin in the opposite side Of the box.
The ends of the box should be increas-
ed in thickness where the wooden pins
enter by piece of wood glued upon
the inside. Tune the strings in unison
and place the box in the window. 1t
is better to have four strings, as de-
scribed, but a harp with even a single
string produces an exceedingly sweet
melody of notes, which vary with the
force of the current of air that vibrates
them

The most wonderful baths in the
world are those built by Adolph Sutro,
in San Francisco. The great cliffs
have been tunneled, that the water of
the Pacific may flow through success
sion of canals into the reservoir where
it is warmed; and thence into the enor-
nous tanks. The baths are more than
twice as large as the largest of the
famous old Roman baths, and Mr.. Su-
tro has tried to make them as beauti-
full. Twenty thousand people can sit,
stand or promenade about the tanks,
which are arranged for every posi-
BILE set of bathers.
There are cold-baths and hot-baths
swimming and diving baths, baths for
children and beginners. The largest
tank is two hundred and seventy. five
feet long, and one hundred and fifty
feet wide. There is even fresh-wa-
ter tank. supplied from the water
works above.
The place is full of beauty and color,
with tropical plants and rows of grow
ing palms, while through the glass
sidewalks the ocean view stretches.
The building is of steel and glass, and
its glazed roof spans more than two
acres. Tier after tier of rooms for the
bathers rise, until they are numbered
by many hundreds.
A great stage, fifty feet broad, is
placed at the ocean end of the tank
room for an orchestra. The building
is furnished with electric lights and
elevators throughout. Three restau-
rants provide refreshment, and an
aquarium and conservatory add to the
beauty and interest. The Cliff Rocks
outside are covered with seals, summing
themselves, and the finest baths in the
world have perhaps the most beauti-
full setting
