There is girl OH the North Side who
admires pink cheeks, but she will be
careful after this where she gets them.
On recent afternoon one of the carettes
was being logged over tho holes in the
pavement of Rush street. At Huron
street the wagon was stopped, and
young woman stepped in and took
seat near the center of the car. She
knew several Of the women, and return
ed their bows. She was q pretty girl,
fashionably gowned, and was on her
way to public rehearsal. After sitting
quietly for "a fow minutes, she, in an
apparently unconscious manner, put her
hand to her cheek and gave it slight
pinch. On her hands We're black gloves
The day was damp and the slightest
trace possible Of the color was left on
her cheek. Then she pinched the other
one. A black spot showed. This she
continued until Adams street was reach
ed, and never woman spoke. When
she reached the Auditorium, her cheeks
were good color, bnt not what she ex-
pected. Chicago Chronicle.

A Chinese Proverb.

Arthur a. Smith, In his wonderfully
bright, accurate and yet somewhat mis-
leading book called Chinese Charaoteris-
tics, quotes the Chinese prsverb that
"one man should not enter temple, and
two men should not look together into a
we'll, adding: And why, we inquire In
surprise, should not ono man enter tenn
pie aloneP Because the priest may take
advantage of the opportunity to make
away with him. Two men should not
gaze into q WE'LL for If ono of them Is In
debt to the other, or has in his possession
something which the other wants, that
other may seize the occasion to push his

Uniauo Pianos.

"All manner of articles in place of
wood have been used in the manufac.
ture of piahos," says one of the great
est English piano makers. "Perhaps the
most successful Of these is paper. of
which many pianos of exquisite tone
and appearance have been made. The
Duke of Deyonshire has one Of the finest
specimens of the paper piano, this being
OF French make. and decorated most or
nately with pictures by French artists.
The duke gave 900 guineas for this,
mainly, no doubt, on account of the or
namentation. suppose you know that
pianos for very hot and very cold eli
mates-all instruments for export. in
sfact-have to be specially made, and in
THIS direction all manner Of experiments
have been tried. Among others, a sort
OF cellulose, one factor in which is nc
tually common molasses, from which
sugar is made, is employed, and q COM
position made from the chemical treat
ment OF gutta percha and leather pulp
mas been tried. Ivory pianos are by no
means uncommon, and the dowager
Countess OF Dudley has magnificent
carved specimen. Pianos of ivory are, I
might say, matla every year in numbers,
but chiefly for Indian princes and rich
Spanish Americans. Many pianos of
solid silver have been made; indeed.
one was only recently completed by a
London firm for the nizam Of Haidara-
bad, and piano cases have ut various
times been made of bronze, species of
aluminium, glass, porcelain and in COM
bination mother of pearl. Exchange.
