Novelties for Wheelwomen.

Some novelties for wheelwomen have
been brought out recently. A compact
little cycling case for strapping on to
the machine is made in either moss
green or maroon morocco, or in pig
skin, and it contains q card case, a
purse, a scent bottle, a mirror, pin
box and watch, which latter is fixed
into the lid in such manner that the
1ial is seen from the outside, and the
case need not be opened to see the
time. Another receptacle for all these
necessary articles is in the shape of
bag, which can be had in moss green
Or maroon morocco, AMI also in brown
green or heliotrope crushed morocco.

Light Obtained from Insects.
The amount of light that can be OBJ
tanned from fireHies is not generally
known. These insects have two bright
spots on the thorax, and also brilliant
wings on the abdomen, and give light
sufficient to enable one to read at lit
tie distance. Two or three placed in the
center of room will shed soft light
all over it. They are very common in
Havana, Brazil, Venezuela and Mexico.
In those countries at night the natives
affix the little creatures to their shoes,
and thus obtain light to see the road
and brighten away the snakes. Mex
lean women use them as jewels. L hey
tie them in little gauze bags, and put
them in their hair or on their clothing

fine one large or two small pineapples,
or an equal amount of the canned fruit
may be used Strain over the fruit the
juice of one lemon, and add a pint of

A Preftr Tea Cloth.

A tea-cloth yard square is made
from pale blue linen ornamented by
Renaissance lace braid in cream white.
These braids are laid on the stamped
design and sewed down along the
edges. The design itself is a wide band
IN conventional figures that extend di-
ngonally across the cloth in leaves and
flowers. The same design is used in
the corners. Each side the band
there is appliqued wide band of Tor
chon lace in a beautifully open pat
tern. The same lace is used as a frill
round the cloth. The design would
be pretty for a bedroom stand-cover il

How Poison Acts.

Carbolic acid produces immediate
vertigo and intoxication, with burning
pain along all points of contact. The
breathing becomes stentorious and the
pupils Of the eyes contract. Phos-
phorus in overdose produces irritation
and disturbance over every part of mu-
cous it touches and the contents OF tho
stomach when removed are luminous
as is phosphorus. Prlnssic acid is tine
most rapid of all poisons, killing like
stroke of lightning. A teaspoonlul OF
two per cent prussic acid will kill. In
a few seconds after the liquid is taken
the face turns blush and the person
sinks to the, floor. Opium, morphine
and the like produce period OF exal-
tation, followed by stupor, which
merges into death. Strychnine is fol-
lowed by commissions; the head jerks
back and the body rests on the head
and heels. arched like q bow. These
spasms come internationally till DEATH
Camphor in poisonous doses produces
ciddineas, cramps, numbness, imper-
feet sight. difficult breathing and con-
acknowledgements Standard.

Historical Age Of the Dog.

M. Quatrefages, the zoologisi and al
round scientist, states that in China iht
exact period of the introduction Of Inc
dog is well known, viz, in the year 1i12
B. o., which puts it at about the time
of the siege of Troy, 1900 years ago
It also appears, from the Chinese his
toric account, that the dog is domes
ticated jackal and that the jackal of to-
day is simply wild, savage dog.-N. Z.

How Bridget Interpreted the Dream That

Went by COntraries.
An old Irishwoman, who has received
may benefits at the hands Of a benevo-
lent minister and his wife, is so shift
less that occasionally the large-heartr
ed couple lose all patience with hers
but she has such sense of humor, and
such a beguiling tongue that she
never fails to amuse them and finally
to win them back.
At one time when money was given
her to buy warm underclothing with,
she wasted 1t upon a large photograph
album. The minister spoke to her
with considerable severity, as did also
his wife, and for some time Bridget
received no calls from either of them.
One afternoon, however, the minister
relented and stopped at Bridget's door
on his way to see sick woman.
"Shure, and it's mesilf that dreamed
about you last noight, Misther VIII

smile. Oidreamed that you and Missus

"Well, Bridget" said the minister,
striving not to smile, "you know dreams
are said to go by contraries.
"Shure, and that's fwhat OF said to

A Leaf from the Diary of q Progressive

My milk cooler is a box large enough
to hold all my milk and cream cans
and butter crooks. 1t has spout down
one corner within one inch of the bot
tom, to allow the water to flow in,
thus putting the cold water in the bot
tom of the tank. The warm water
rises to the surface and passes off
down the hose, which is hooked
up as high as you wish the
water in the vat around the cans.
When there is less milk in the cans,
lower the hose by use of the wire
chain. The warm water passes off at
the top of the vat and runs out on
our garden, and is used to irrigate it.
