seeking An Employment Agency, the Lazy

There is a funny story current in
the English papers about certain
elderly Irish peeress well known in
London society. She was in search of
q new manservant and heard of a reg
istry office in certain square on the
confines Of Bloomsbury. Thither she
drove in much state, and on arriving at
the square in question her footman
asked policeman where was the
agency" man in blue majestically
waved the equipage to a certain house.
Her ladyship was admitted. Il have
come about q young man." she re-
marked to the bland proprietor. Yes,
madam; quite understand" was the
reply. "He must be sober and honest
and used to good families" 'Oh, yes,
madam; think we have the very thing
on our books. Would you like to sec
his photograph" His photograph
cried Lady -. ~ suppose the mans
straight?' "Oh, yes, madam; very
fine man; fortune is no object, 1 i'm
agine?" This last with n movement OF
the hand toward the carriage with its
paving horses, that could be seen
through the window. "A fortune with
my footman?" literally shouted the
Irish lady. Then the proprietor ex-
planned that his was n matrimonial
agency and that the registry Office was
on the other side of the square.

MATHEMATICS AND ASTRONOMY
Two Sciences That Arc Closely Related

Two Sciences That Arc Closely Related
and Necessary to Each Other.
Probably in none of the sciences, ap-
Piled or pure, is knowledge of higher
mathematics SO essential as ustron-
omy. Certainly none involves so much
mathematical labor. The method of
the least squares is one in almost con-
slant use by those engaged in astro-
nomical calculation, and the amount of
labor often entailed by this process is
enough to make the head of an ordi-
nary citizen swim even to think Of.
One of the most extensive least square
solutions ever made, says the Pitts
burgh Dispatch, has recently been pub
lishcd by Prof. Schur, of Goettingen.
The heliometric triangulations- of the
stars in the cluster praesepe (thc Bee
hive) gave rise to II series of "A normal
equations, involving "A unknown guam
Titles. Ine solution OF this set of
quantities was effected by Prof. Schur
in ten weeks by means of the usual
Gnussian method of elimination. Prof.
Schur comes to the conclusion that no
other method by successive approNi-
nations is to be compared to the
Gaussian method, even though it might
seem to promise a saving of labor in
advance. Prof. Schur mentions MS the
longest least square solution he has
been able to find in astronomical liter
ature geodctic adjustment made by
Baeyer, in which set of normal equa-
tions with Gs unlsnowns was success
fully solved by the famous computer.

sal. Makes Sugar sw-e..r.

Who would think of making sugar
sweeter by the addition of salt? such,
however, is asserted to be the case by
Prof. Zuntz at a late meeting Of the
Physiological society of Berlin. From
his experiments he finds, that If to 4
solution of sugar there be added q
slight amount Of salt and water so weak
that it excites no saline taste, the re-
suit is extra sweetening of the sugared
water. The weakest of quinine solu-
tion is said to produce practically
similar result. The explanation given
of the above seeming incongruity Is
that the ever so feeble saltness or bit
terness imparts an increased sensibility
to tho sensation of taste BY the stimuli
taneous stimuli, and hence IN apprs-
ciation Of additional sweetness.

Why the Russian Teaksttls 10 So Mucl
Superior to Ours.

Why the Russian Teaksttls Il So Much
Superior to Ours.
A samovar, the distinctively Russian
utensil for heating water to make tea,
when in brass or nickle, of small size.
but large enough for family use, COST
sixteen dollars. In Russia the samovar
is as common household utensil as is
our tealettle. The superiority Of the
samovar over our teakettle is due to the
greater rapidity with which water Is
heated in it, says the New York Trib-
une. A little brand Of charcoal is
started in the section in the center
designated for this purpose, and the
water around it is heated much more
rapidly than it can be in the teakettle,
exposed to the fire only at the bottom;
but If the mistress OF the house could
see that the teakettle is freshly filled,
and would use the water at the moment
it boils, as delicious tea could be made
with teakettle as with samovar.
The Russian lady, it must be remem-
bered, does not intrust the important
part of the tea making, the boiling Of
the water, to a servant. She has this
done before her in samovar, and thus
ensures the perfection Of her tea. She
is, therefore, not called upon to waste
words and patience with domestic,
who in answer to your inquiries as to
whether the kettle is boiling" invari-
ably replies: SIT have boiled" AS
! though water that had once been boiled
was, therefore, fit for tea making, even
! if it has been reduced to lukewarm
temperature since! No amount Of in
/ struction will ever eradicate from the
mind of the average servant the idea
that water that has boiled is therefore
fit for tea; and that you are over-fastidi-
GUS to require that it shall be boiling at
the time the tea is made, and that 1t
should not have. been boiled before

raise the promised sum offa was forced
to impose tax of one penny on each
householder whose annual income was

BICYCLES OF GREAT COST.
New York Firm TO Meet . Demand for
$1,000 Bicycles.


The most prominent New York jew
elry firm has something new for wheel
men in @ silver bicycle, which was put
on exhibition at their store u few days
ago. The wheel is the first of the kind
ever made. In order to insure strength
and durability it was necessary to have
the supporting rods and spokcs of steel.
All the rest of the frame is of sterling
silver. The handle bar is of plain sill
yer, with FURNISHED ivory handles. The
other silver parts are finely engraved
by hand, with rcpousse etching of the
Louis XVI. style. The sproclcet wheel
is of plain silver. The saddle itself is
studded with silver nails. The cost of
tho machine, as it stands, is $500. A
silver lantern to go with it will add
from 500 to s2c0 to the price.
The completed wheel weighs about
a6 pounds. A member OF the company
said, in explaining the construction of
the new bike: This wheel was built
to supply a demand which we know to
exist among some of our patrons for
. better and more expensive wheel than
can be had on the market at present.
Such wheel we have tried to make.
and believe that another season will
see many of them at the fashionable
resorts"
A woman's wheel is being finished
in the firms shops. This wheel will
be much more richly ornamented, and
it's price will be $1,000. A lantern
which is being made to go with it, will
be set with precious stones and will
cost several hundred dollars.

please. 1t is said that they even raise
fence wires so that the sheep may run
on the ranches. The sheepmen are
evidently looking for trouble and last
week while Charles and Frank Itanney
were in their neighborhood the boys
were fired upon three times. The bul-
lets fell short and no damage was done.
The sheepmen probably thought that
the Rarueys were there for the purpose
of investigating their strength and con-

them away. The boys lost no time in

DONE UP AT sARANAC.

Belding was defeated last Saturday
by the Saranacs at Saranae in decd-
edly one sided contest, the one side
being the umpire who could not hear
foul tips made by the Belongs bats,
and could not follow Driese's and
Smiths quick curves. Beding boys,
not being used to playing on bogs, they
were greatly handicapped, but never
theless put up good game under the
circumstances. They were also weak
ened by the absence of Fish.
The Saranacs, not being satisfied
with winning the game, refused to pay
the boys the $1,000 as they agreed, but
after one hours coaxing by Manager
Case, they gave them S5.0 and agreed
to send the other 500 some time in
the future.
