One Of the latest fads Of fashionable
Paris IL called the "phosphorescent Ave
o'clock" Candles or lamps are not
used for illumination. The walls and
ceiling. as well as the floor OF the room
and the furniture. are all covered with
a phosphorescent mixture which abb
serbs light during the day and becomes
luminous at dusk. Even the flowers
with which the room b decorated, and
the pictures which hang on the wall.
and the cups and saucers and plates
used at these entertainments are sub
jected to a phosphorescent treatment,
80 that everything Is bathod In n mys-
&c glow. Not TO be out OF harmony
with their surroundings, the ladies
hidden to these functions wear "phos-
phoroscont gowns which CLEAN with
a strange unoarthly glow. In short.
the only things that remain unillumin-
cd appear to be the minds OF tho
wcarcrs.

that the beech shows immunity from

no one should be uneasy about him. He
left owing board bill, and about the
same time a $13 Smith & Wesson re-
volver and valuable gold ring made
their departure from the landlords resi-
