Of Interest to All.

During dangerous weather of this sort, :" said the old doctor, "the most careful persons are apt to catch cold in their chests that will extend swiftly to the lungs if not attended to. It usu- ally makes its presence known by con- stricted sensation just under the breast bone, where the flesh is the thinnest. When a person experiences this feeling, he can rest assured that he can procure almost instant relief by drinking cup of water as hot as he can bear to take in the mouth and to swallow. There is no better medicine in the world to arrest the progress of cold than hot water, and, besides it's effect upon the stomach and the system generally, it is bene- ficial in the highest degree. And in sore throat the remedy will be found almost a specific "-W Washington Star.

The Origin of Point Lace.

A little known example Of inventive genius i'll woman is that afforded by Barbara Uttman of Saxony and hel point lace so long in fashionable use all over the world She invented the proo- ess and apparatus for manufacturing this beautiful bandiwork. which has since given employment to millions of operators, and which, ill it's line has never been excelled The apparatus looks like 0 long pincushion bristling with pins arranged to outline the pat tern or design. The operator manages from 10 to 50 peculiar spools, allowing the thread to feed over the pins alter nately until the design is completed. The spools or bobbins are purposely of different colors, so as to be easily distin- guishable. The process is slow and diffl- cult to learn Miss Uttnan founded schools, where thousands learned it. Since her time, when inventive ability was rare, even among mon, her ideas have been incorporated in tho oonstruo- tion of machinery by which tho lace is produced at wonderful lower rates, and yet Barbara Uttman's lace still sur passes all.

Louis Philippe knew that Marshal Soult chung to power, and that his fall would be bitter to him. But when the time came the future ministers, with Thiers at their head, were assembled at the Tuileries, while in the next room Louis Philippe broke the news to Soult. The interview took long time, and the new ministers were not without some apprehension. Finally the door was opened just enough to allow the kings queor pear shaped head to pass, and he whispered; "A little patience. gentle men. Just little patienoe-we arc weeping together.

ScHooLBoY KNOWLEDGE.
Some of the Funny Riundc-s of Which
 Pupils Are Capable

Pupils Are Capable.
 The roll of our naval heroes is still increasing, for a schooltoacaor has re- gently learned from her pupils that Shakespeare became a French and Milton Dutch admiral" MGssulmans, however, was not, of coursa, the name given to French soldiers, TOT does sui frage mean hunger, though some times it is not remotely connected with thirst
 There is something solemn in tho statement that "Becket-his grave was made pilgrim, " and false etymology possibly suggested that "grerrillas were mon who saw to the guilletine, and that Doomsday Book was so called "be- cause it was to last till tho crack of doom. And, lastly, here arc tho two most recent contributions to general history Nelson lived in the reign of Victoria and defeated the French un- der Biuoher at Waterloo, and, again, "the battle of Trafalgar was fought at Waterloo, when Napoleon commanded the Prussians and Nelson was shot for going on deck" In geography also the answers are somewhat at variance with preconoeived notions. It appears that 'Derby is noted for races, Sheffield for Sheffield ponies and Bolton for it's ab- bey." Honolulu is n palace in the eap- ital of Spain" and Helvellyn "a large volcano in Scotland /" A crater is "a straight line which is very hot, and the chief foods of India are tea, coffee, rice and raw silk. " Possibly few people know what dikes are. It is this way: "When country is below the sea, dikes are big sticks to hold up the wa ter. /" We are glad to know, on one au- thority, that "the Albert Nyanza is so called because it was discovered by Prince Albert, i" but it suggests painful thoughts to be informed that Living stone went on exploring till his boots ever, a certain element of truth in the statement that Panama is noted for yellow mud, which sticks to the fingers of those who make it. :"
 The English language itself is fer tile source of error. Such spellings as ''bearheadedo arc not uncommon. The masculine of goose is duck. and the feminine of horse Is cow.

seamanship Past and Present.

In the past seamanship was the chief thing. In tho present seamanship, in the old and strict sense Of the world, holds a very subsidiary place. When the winds and the waves and the tides could not be forced and had to be hu- mored. the mystery of dealing with these clements was worthy study for a whole life. But today we force tho winds, the waves and the tides. and humor them very little. Tho seaman is in process of becoming the engineer Every year he becomes moro and more the engineer, and l am certain that a much briefer experience of the sea than was formerly needed is now required to- ward the formation of the good officer National Review.
