THE SWEATER.
A Curious Funeral Rite Which Obtained
in Wales.

A Curious Funeral Rite Which Obtained
in Wales.
The principality of Wales has within
living memory possessed an official
known as the "sin-eater." 1t was the
practice for relative-usually a wom-
an--to put on the breast of a deceased
person a quantity of bread and cheese
and beer, and the sin-cater was sent for
to consume them and to pronounce the
everlasting rest of the departed. twas
believed that in doing this he absolutely
ate and appropriated to himself the sins
symboliZed by the viands. and thereby
prevented their disturbing the repose Of
the sinner who had committed them.
Such an arrangement would obviously
leave nothing to be desired on the one
side, but how it worked on the other we
are not told. What was supposed to be
the condition of this spiritual under
taker after the ceremony was con-
cluded? Did his appropriation" of the
dead mans sins imply sort of moral as
similation Of them, answering to his
physical assimilation of the bread and
cheese? The question would obviously
be one of some Importance to a sin-eater
in large practice. If the responsible
ties of his profession were as great as
ties of his profession were as great as
hypothesis, he would need to retire
from it early, and to devote a consider
able portion of his closing years to re-
pentance and good works.
Again, it is natural to ask what hap
pened at the decease of a popular or
fashionable" sin-eater. Would any
one among his professional brethren
undertake to eat his sins, even in the
first flush of satisfaction produced by
stepping into his shoes? If so, then,
indeed, has the epithet of gallant"
been rightly bestowed upon little Wales.
1t is as though one doctor succeeding to
another's practice should consent to as
sumo the moral responsibility for his
late colleagues treatment of all his de-
ceased patients, in addition to his own
similar burdens.
We yield to none in admiration of the
quiet and homely heroism of the medi-
cal profession, but we doubt whether it
would enable them to face such an or
deal as this. AS to the Welsh practi-
TONERS to whom we have compared
them, we shrink from pursuing the an
alysis further. 1t is evident that, as in
the schoolboy game of "conquerors,"
where a stone which can smash the
smasher, of, say, 43 other stones takes
over all it's conquests, and becomes it.
self a "forty-fourer," SO the responsible
tiles of these unhappy men might ac-
cumulate at an alarming rate. One
hardly dares to contemplate the inter-
nal condition of the sin-eater who had In
life attended a long series of other sin
eaters. The cheese would be almost
converted into Welsh rabbit before he
had got it down.-London Times.

A Man with Hopes.

Near midnight the other evening
sat down on one of the seats of the
Thames embankmcnt when a ragamuf
fin began pestering me for a penny.
After had given him siXpence said:
"You must go hungry for long time?"
"Yes, sir"
Sand you seldom sleep in bed?"
'Very seldom"
sand your clothes are badly out at
the elbows?"
81 need new suit, SIR"
"On the whole, you haven't much to
live for, take it?"
''Not very much, sir, and if it wasn't
for my hopes I'd take header into the
river"
"What hopes have you?"
"Well, sir, I'll put your tenner with
nine bob more on the races tomorrow.
and If l win I'll sit down to a cham
pagne supper and buy myself box of
Havana cigars. That's what l hope for,
sir, and thank you and good night"
shouted at him to come back with
my coin, but he vanished in the gloom
in the direction of Blackfrisrs bridge

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

Perfumes are now extensively map
ufactured in the United States, and tha
native articles are said by experts to
compare favorably with foreign manrIa
features.
England manufactures perfumes
on a very large scale, importing many 81
the materials from other countrieod
but also making large use Of homes
grown herbs and flowers.
Many woods have sugar and gum in
their composition, and the presence OF
these elements is generally shown by
the attraction the wood seems to have
for many kinds of insects.
The wheat yield in the Genesee
valley, Idaho, this season is immense. W..
y. Glib thrashed 1000 bushels off Of 200
acres, averaging about AS bushels to the
acre. Dan Healy cut and thrashed ~
acres Of wheat that went SO bushels to
the acre.
"A Missouri rattesnake at the mu.
scum of comparative zoology at Cam
bridge has been observed to lose his
skin twice year and to add rattle
for every skin. Instead of losing tho
rattles as he does the skin, they are re-
tained by the closing of the inner end
of the old rattle over the knob of tho
new one, and accidents accepted, the
snake bears with him this record of his
age.
The trade in California sweet wines
is showing gratifying increase. The
total estimated product for this year is
100000 gallons, which is 25 per cent.
more than was marketed last year.
Heretofore there has been little profit
in the vintages because of the fierce COM
petition of growers, but the producers
have now made arrangements with
sweet-wine syndicate which will con-
troll the entire product of the state and
give all concerned some share in the
profit.
In America it has been observed
that bees often bore tubular corollas in
order to get at the nectar of flowers. in
stead of entering by the mouth, as
humblebees do in Europe. In essayson
the crcssfertilization of flowers, this
supposed anomaly has been the subject
of much comment. 1t now appears that
the humblebees of Europe and America
have identical habits in regard to the
manner in which visits to flowers are
made, and that it is the class of insects
known as the carpenter bee, or the
borer, which works in the outside man
ner indicated.
The question of the influence of the
size of seeds upon termination and up
on the size of the plants that spring
therefrom has recently been studied
anew by Mr. B. r. Galloway, a summary
of whose conclusions is given by the
Gardeners Chronicle. The weight and
size of the seed are of great Importance.
A large seed terminates better and moro
quickly, and with it one can count upon
having at the same moment from 85 to
90 per cent. of the total crop,while with
small seeds the crop reaches maturity
only in successive periods Of time, so
that at no moment in gathering the
crop in toto could we have the same
| proportion of the whole. Besides,
where with small seeds four successive
crops are obtained, we have six with
large seeds, their evolution occurring
with greater rapidity.

FASHIONABLE FOOTWEAR.
More Attention Paid to Comfort and Con.
venience Than FormerlS.

venience Than Formerly.
"Of course, for carriage wear, house
wear, evening wear, the Louis Quinze
heel is all the go-although do not
advocate women moving about all day
in the house, for instance. with their
feet at the angle those heels enforce.
Whether a woman is walking on the
street or walking in the house her foot
should be properly poised. The low
heel and pointed toe, even an extremely
pointed toe, are to be preferred to the
broad toe and high heel which prevailed
q dozen or SO years ago"
sand about the picadilly toes-are
they vanishing?"
"A rounded toe, neither pointed nor
square. is what we are making now for
walking boots, but slippers still ter
inmate in a sharp point, perhaps not as
exaggerated as last season.
"Buckles have little to do with the
anatomy of the foot" he added, "but I
want to show you these cut-steel
buckles on the patent-leather slippers"
and he took from the show window
variety of Cinderella-like footgear
strapped and buclled in novel and
dainty designs. They were pretty
enough for the roseleaf feet Of fairies.
"In regard to leggings, a subject so
important to the tuniced and gated
Rosalinds who fit through our parks
and along our boulevards, it is revealed
that shapely and satisfactory acces-
sories of the kind are being made of
black leather and pigskin. The ma
jority are buttoned for convenience in
getting into them, but the more ex-
pensive are laced with delicate preci-
sion and fit like wax.
Undoubtedly people pay much more
attention to their feet, take better care
of them and think more of their COM
fort now than they ever did. And well
they need to do So" quoth the shoe
maker, emphatically. "Many people
are one-sided and their bodies thrown
clear out of plumb simply from always
having balanced themselves on absurd
heels and having worn the wrong shape
of shoe. l know personally an appar-
emily sensible woman who weighed
two hundred and twenty-five pounds
and who wore habitually a one and one
half shoe with heel three inches high.
She fell once or twice and hurt herself,
but the fall was never attributed to the
shoes. / have another customer, a fine
looking girl of noble proportions, who
invariably orders an "A last. 1t is en-
tirely too narrow for her. Among the

great many whose feet are totally Nm.
like. They have a corn, perhaps, on one
foot, and habitually walk in such a way
as to ease that foot; that is, throw the
pressure off the corn. A different set
of muscles is used and the foot enlarges
in different way from it's companion
foot. People invariably favor one
member of the body more than the
other; in measuring for leggings one
leg is often found much larger than the
other, and the same is true in regard to
feet. The shoes are made similar, but
the feet are distinctly different. Y

1.-THE WAY OF THE WORLD"

We hear Of wrong that is done in the land
OF some shaft that is needless1y hurled
Or some heart that Ii broken; and quick we
reply,
In our haste: "'Tis the way of the
world"
The way of the world for the rich and the
strong
To impose on the poor and the weak!
The dark, bitter spirit of hate and revenge
To tread down the true soul that is meek.
We thoughtlessly drink from the fountain
Of sin,
And v,ir5sa from pleasure to pleasure are
And our only excuse to a conscience out
ragged
Is this: TITS the way of the world"
Tho way Of the world to tread errors broad
road
Forsaking the heavenly way;
Forsaking the wisdom that comes from
above,
And the light of the infinite day.
Some go on, and on, in their folly, till death.
In their midst, has his black flag un-
furled,
When they say a late prayer of repentance
And gasp out: :" 'Tis the way of the
world"

PETROLEUM WAGONS.
The New Motor Carriages and
Their Cost.
Cheapness One of the Advantages Of the
Novel Conveyances-Receive with
Great Favor in This
Country.

The practibility of these carriages
seems to be placed beyond doubt. Since
1892 they have been growing in favor
in France, and the only wonder is that
we have not seen them over here before
now. The future would appear to he
long to them, if all be true, aNd we can
hardly doubt the bona fides. They are
as easily worked as a tricycle-prob-
ably easier. A novice, as many witness,
is able upon the first trial to drive his
carriage over 200 miles in days Of
10 hours apiece. Tourists have wan
dered over half dozen departments in
them. and the taste is spreading every
day. Soon the enthusiasm will reach
England, and then-well, it is difficult
to say what will happen then.
For among the great advantages OF
thepetroleum carriage is its remarkable
cheapness. The cost of a carriage is
are built, as we have said, with touching
fidelity to old forms. There is the dog
cart, the wagonette, the phaeton, the
"break" and the "mylord," as our
French friends have it. From purely
lay contemplation of these vehicles, we
are not disposed to think that finality
has been reached in regard to their
shape.
When the first railway carriages were
constructed, either out of loving con-
servatism or from a desire not to Of
fend, they were built upon the line of
the stage coach and colored to match.
In time they achieved their own indie
pendence and individuality. Messrs.
Panhard and Levassor will probably find
time and experience ripen their in
vention in this respect. At present. a
voiture deux places cost 6 1853; a
voiture quartre places forme dogcart
costs e2OO; the phaeton, e212, and
the "mylord" heads the price list at
G240. These cannotbe reckoned ex-

the saving seems amazing.
To begin with, two horses can be dis
carded; and horses, we believe, are
roughly estimated to cost f25 or 6 sc
year apiece to keep. A purchaser of a
| petroleum carriage reckons that it costs
| him from 1.5Of. to IF. day. The manu-.
facturer's reckoning is 4c. per kilomete1
for a 2-seated carriage and SC. for q
4-seated carriage; let us say, on ar
average, something between half
penny and farthings mile.
Compare this with the expenses ot
horses Let us say cab horse costs
some G SO, and is available for three
years; that constitutes yearly charge
of 6 r. Add to this 6 25 for food ant
keeping, and we get total of 6 81. The
initial outlay on the vehicle may be ig
nored, as we are also ignoring the initia
cost of voiture. A horse, year in ant
year ont, would hardly do more than /
miles day. Out of these figures, whicl
are, Of course, rough, one may deduc
something like twopence mile as tn
cost of a horse carriage. The advan
