Electricity In Wool.

Almost any one who has the habit of
observation has noticed that wooden gar
mcnts will sometimes cracklc and appear to
be attracted by the warmth of the hand.
This varies greatly i'll different tcmpGra-
mcnts, some people being so charged with
electricity that it literally cmanatcs from
all of their wearing apparel. a number of
instances are recorded where women have
worn as inner wraps what are known MS
Grape shawls, these being made of oriental
silk heavily wrought with embroidery and
with long, thick fringe. After rapid walk
ing, especially in the cold, if the wooden
outside garment is suddenly dropped off
the fringe of the silk instantly rises in a
horizontal line and stands out like rays all
around the body. One lady has the power
of creating this condition at will simply
by throwing a WOODEN wrap over the silk
one and walking smartly about the room
for five minutes.
This electric popularity is much more
observable in silk than in wool, although
in the latter material it is sufficiently
abundant to cause no little ANNOYANCE in
factories where the raw staple is worked
up. The electric annoyance however, is
almost always coincident with the extreme
cleanliness of the wool. If it is slightly
wet and saturated with OIL there is very
little trouble, and it may be so heavily
weighted in this way that all inconvcE-
fence disappears. In oldcn times when
women spun their own yarn, it was often
found necessary to use very pure and warm
lard in order that the threads might run
more smoothly; otherwise the fbera seemed
to crinllle and kink, and the thread would
be rough and of inferior quality.-New
York Ledger

The most freakish freak ever assumed
by pearls is exhibited in that extraordinary
curiosity known to the gem fanciers as
the Southern cross. Taken as whole
it is group of nine pearls grown together
in such manner as to form perfect Lat
in cross. Seven Of the nine go to form the
upright of the cross, or main shaft, which
is exactly l 4 inches in length. The arms
of the cross, which, it must be admitted.
are hardly long enough to give the figure
good proportions, are each formed by one
pearl so arranged on either side that the
addition of the tenth of an inth to each
would give perfect symmetry to the out
line of the whole figure. There is not an
i'll shaped OF off colored pearl in the group,
and, taken as whole, it is not only re-
markable freak of nature, but it is also o
valuable collection of gems of goodly size
and fine luster.
This wonderful freak was discovered
several years ago in the pearl fishing
grounds of Western Australia by man
named Clark He is said to have been II
very superstitious man and to have re-
garded the symbol exhibited in his find as
an i'll omen. On this account he dug a
hole, and, after carefully wrapping the
oddity in several folds Of silk, buried it.
About 81 years ago, in 1874, the gem was
disintcrred, ana since that time has
changed hands several times The last
time it sold for S52, O00.-St Louis Repub-

"rim-Tim, ne whispered, scarcely
knowing her, "the picture, the picture
Will it never be done-will it never be
doneP o God, how they hold me back
Will no one help me? 1t is my life-my
life!"
He exhausted himself presently and lay
quiet, and she stole away, with tear be-
dimmod eyes, into his studio and uncover
ed the great picture. So near and yet so
far, she thought. If he could but start
now, the picture might be completed.
She went softly back into the room again
and found him apparently sleeping Grad
ually she slipped down beside the bed on
her knees and raised her young face and
prayer stole up out OF her careless heart,
the first that her abandoned life had
known.
80 God, or fate, " she whispered, "that
rules the stars and men, grant this my
prayerl love him! l love him / love
him o God if it be possible grant that
l, for his dear sake, may take his power
and finish that which he has left undunc.
Take thou my soul if thou wilt-God or
dcvil-and cast it out utterly, so only that
this thing may be done. Kill me- do what
thou wilt aftcrward. Grant only this. "
She knclt there for long time with
her face hidden, then rose quietly and
pressed her lips to his and went out 20 the
studio, as one walks in q dream, with
new, strange light on her face, and took
up the brushes and palette fcarlessly and
set to work.
Day after day she painted without hest
tation, kissing his lips always before she
started telling no one, but keeping the
studio locked from all eyes
She grow thin and weak and ill., All
the bright and buoyant young life of her
seemed to be absorbed in her work. With
dreaming wonder, that was in itself the
greatest wonder Of ALL she saw the picture
grow under her hands until it was finished.
They had missed her couple of DAYS,
and seeking her found her lying peacefully
at the foot Of the easel. The Beauty was
better and convalcSccnt, and knew them,
and inquired for her. At first they
thought she was asleep from exhaustion,
but on trying to rouse her they found tlNt
she was dead. The old doctor said that it
was heart trouble, and she had died in her
sleep.
The Beauty never knew. In his delirium
he had Joined so often the real and the I'M
real that he came to believe that he had
completed the picture himself At all
events, it made him famous.-True Flag.

The wormwoOd plant is a native of Eu-
rope, growing wild in most parts of the
continent. The plant was known to the
ancients and is extensively used in many
parts Of Germany in the manufacture of
beer, to impart bitter flavor to the liquor,
thus taking the place to some extent of
hops. All parts of the wormwood plant are
bitter. The French drink known us abb
sinthe is a preparation of the wormwood.

Were Women Free,

The only reason why women ever as
sumo what is more appropriate to men is
because they prevent them from finding
out what is fit for themselves. We're they
free, were they wise, fully to develop the

never wish to be men or menlike. The
