Town Histories in Demand.

10 know what kind of books are
most called for at the Congressional
library would promptly surprise 80 per
cent of the novel reading public
throughout the United States. The de-
mand is not for general historical or
scientific works, nor for romances and
dramatic literature, but just for sim
pie town histories. Under this rubric
is comprehended those works which
describe the historical events of the
foundation and development of general
municipalities. And the most remark
able thing in connection with the con-
stantly growing popularity of town
histories is the fact that the demand
comes chiefly from women.
One of the attaches of the Congress.
sional library recently asserted within
the hearing of reporter that the de-
mand for these municipal records by
women was assuming enormous pro-

How Corn Was Ground at One Time.

The watermill is older than the wind
mill, but prehistoric corn-such wheat,
for instance, as Pytheas, the first trav-
eler from civilization to Great Britain,
saw the natives of Kent drying in large
sheds on account of the absense of sun
was ground in hand mills, as is still
done in the east. Quernes, as these mills
are called, are frequently found in the
cyclopean underground dwellings of
Scotland. Their simplest form con-
sists of two thin circular stones, the up.
per of which is pierced in the center
and revolves on a wooden or metal pin
inserted in the lower one. The grinder
dropped the grain into the central hole
with one hand, while the other caused
the upper stone to revolve by means of
stick inserted in a small hole near
the edge.
The laboriousness of this operation is
well illustrated by story told of Col
pmba. He was studying under st. Fin
nian, and every night on which it fell
to his lot to grind the corn with the
querne he performed his task SO quick
ly that his companions enviously as
serted that he had the assistnce of an
angel in turning the stone. Wilson
thinks that at this time 1.-THE early part
OF the sixth century, the querne was
the only mill in use. Large water
mills were introduced in the thirteenth
century into Scotland, and legal means
had to be employed to render their
use compulsory. .-Gentleman's Maga-

Immense Fortunes i'm Trees

The timber wealth of the United
States gives yearly product of over a
billion of dollars, or twice the value of
the entire output of all the mines put
together-gold, silver, iron, copper,
zinc, and the rest. This is resource
worth keeping, and yet we are cutting
into our capital at the fearful rate of
seventy five per cent. each year, as
''only about twenty five per cent of the
timber market is represented by new
growth. AS for losses from the fires
that are started by locomotives, cattle
men, berrypickers hunters, and incen.
diaries, it gives sufficient idea of
what they cost US to be told by the
Forestry Commissioner of Pennsylva-
MIA that this State alone probably suf-
fers to the extent of $500, ,00O,OO annu-
ally from this one cause. Not only the
trees are lost in these vegetable mould
which would supply fertility to the
soil for future agriculture purposes,
or food for the roots of a second growth
of forest, is burnt; and the first step is
taken on that descendant to landslide

Most Wonderful City.

The most wonderful city within the
limits of the United States, and which
has no existence whatever during the
summer months, is Fish City, Mich.
This municipal oddity is built on the
ice of Saginaw Bay regularly every
winter and is occupied by men and
their families who are engaged in
catching, cleaning and packing lake
trout and whitefish for the market.
Fish City is situated in the same cove
nearly every winter and is built of
rough pine boards. In the winter of
1884 it had population of nearly
three thousand and in 1S94.5 almos,

Setting Forests ON Fire.

During the last two or three weeks
forest fires have ragged in many States,
destroying property valued at millions
and retarding the growth of fiourishing
towns. Nor is this the full measure of
the damage inflicted, for the destruc-
tion of forests causes radical changes
in the amount and locality of rainfall.
1t dries up brooks, causes lakes to dis
appear, produces droughts, and thus
seriously affects the material interests
and the comfort and health of COM
munities. So important is the subject
OF forest preservation that it has COM
manded the serious attention of the
national and State Governments, and
will, we have no doubt, be the object
OF their increasing solicitude for many
years. Most of the fires that devastate
forests are the results of accidents or
carelessness. Sparks from railway To-
comotives have been one OF the chief
agencies in this Wholesale destructio
Fires built by picnic parties, by hun.
ters or fishermen for culinary work,
have spread into adjacent woods and
Travelled over townships, and in some
instances, over whole counties, leaving
ruin and desolation and frequently
death in their trail. But the recent
forest fires in West Virginia did not
come from accident or want of caution.
They were set by incendiaries, by the
hand of vandals; they destroyed prop
erty valued at half million, and set
back the development of the burned
tract for thirty or forty years. The
laws of that State provide for the i'm
position of fine from $40 to 500, and
imprisonment for year, for setting
fire to forests. This would seem to be
proper time to apply the maximum
penalty, and that is too mild for a
case like this. The man who inten.
tionally sets the woods on fire is in his
right place only when locked behind
prison walls. One years imprisonment
for such crime is inadequate Wash.

81 A YEAR IN ADVANCE
The Airy Salesman.

Once in a while an airy salesman
gets sat on" and one in a certain drv
goods house in Boston had that experi-
enoe last week A young lady was in
search of some material to use for a
waist with very handsome silk skirt.
and she advanced to the counter where
this particular clerk was presiding.
She was quietly dressed; she did not
scintillate with spangles and gilt belts,
and her sleeves and skirts did not ex.
tend to the width of space between the
counters consequently the clerk evil
dently decided she did not come from
the magic precincts of the Back Bay.
Attracted by certain piece of goods,
she asked the price and width. The
man answered shortly: "Three ward;
forty seven inches wide" She looked
at various other things on the counter
and then, returning to the first thing
as the most pleasing, she said politely:
"Will you please give me a sample of
thisT" The man did not move. 81 told
you that was SO yard, he said. The
girl looked at him. "Yes?" she said
The silk l intend to use it with cost
20 70 yard, but l think l can make
this stuff of yours do, as it is only for
house wear.n
A smile stole over the face of two or
three shoppers, and the salesman cut
the sample with meekness that would
have done credit to Moses. But that
girl says she'll go without dress
rather than buy yard OF that man.

A SERPENT With Seven Heads.

The most famous of the many semi.
fabulous montrosities of ancient times
was. the wonderful seven headed snake,
known in the early books on natural
history as the Venetian Serpent. None
of the early writers seem to know ex-
actly when or where the monstrous
creature was killed. About the only
point in which they do agreeis on the
number of its heads. Cattell says: I'm
the yeare of Christe's incarnation, $50,
about the month of January, this mon
strous seven headed serpent was
brought out of Turkey to Venice, and
afterwards given to the King" Topsell
says: II have also heard thatin Venice,
among the Dukes treasures, there is
preserved serpent withe seven heads,
which in years gone by was taken on
ye river Nile in Ethiopia. Webbe also
refers to the Venetian monster in his
chapter on "legless wonders" where
1 find the following::"Snak with two
heads, even though they be on opposite
ends, are no longer rare. The
wonder of all wonders, however. was
the Venetian serpent, which had seven
heads, each resembling that of a human
being"

The Chinaman and the Piano.

There was Chinaman who has
laundry on Market street, who went to
musical few days ago. The press
agent for the show struck up quite an
acquaintance with John and gave him
ticket, so John went.
l happened to be in the laundry
when John returned from the enter.
tainment. He and his partner have
not been in this country very long, and
it was the first time John heard a
piano. l won't attempt to give the
dialect, but this is the way he described
the instrument to his fellow country
man:
"They had four legged beast which
the people could make sing at will. A
man, or woman, or even feeble
girl sits down in front of the animal
and step on its tail, while at the same
time hitting its white teeth with his OF
her fingers, and then the creatures be-
gin to sing. The singing, though much
louder than bird, is pleasant to listen
to. The beasts does not bite, nor does
it move, although it was not tied up
during the whole evening. g.-Louisvill

1t May Do as Much for You.

Fred Miller, Of Irving, ILL.,, writes
that he had a severe kidney trouble for
many years, with severe pain in his
back and also that his bladder was af-
fected. He tried many so called kid
ney cures but without any good result.
About year ago he began the use of
Electric Bitters and found relief at
once. Electric Bitters is especially
adapted to cure all kidney and liver
troubles and often gives almost instant

Romance of a Fall.

The proverb that to stub ones toe
while looking at one of the opposite
sex is sign of matrimonial bonds be-
tween the two will probably be proved
true by a young couple of New York
village. 1t happened on Broadway,
Troy, not long ago, that a pretty young
lady made misstep and fell into the
arms of total stranger. Restoring her
to state of equilibrium, he said: "I'm
glad you're pretty" The compliment
struck rich ground, and they became
known to each other by formal intro
duction. They are now engaged, and
it is said that Easter bells will ring
their bans. The young man says he
will never object to rough sidewalks
again.

bara county, has sent sample of the
dried fruit for the inspection of the
board of trade. He contends that no
product on earth contains as much OF
the elements of nutrition necessary for
the sustenance of the body as a ripe
olive. The dried fruit will, of course,
contain all these qualities, and all that
is necessary to render it pleasing to the
taste is soaking and sailing it, The oil
of the olive is equal to meat and the
pulp is as bread.
Three of the largest olive groyes in
the world are planting in southern Cal.
ifornia. One grove of 400 acres in
Orange county will contain 40, 900 trees.
Another, near Cotton, will have "a 900
trees, and the third, near Pomona, will
have $4,000 trees. There is more olive
planting this season than at any pre-
vious time, the boom being due to the
increased popularity of California
olives in American markets. The olive
