How og. the Giant, Survived the Flood.
There are no books in the world that
are equal to the two Talmuds as far as
outlandish stories of fiction and prepos-
terous superstition and tradition are
concerned According to the Talmudio
writers, the early giants. those who
lived before the flood, and who were
giants indeed as compared with the so
called colossal specimens of the human
family which lived Just before the del
uge, were the children of angels and
the daughters Of men. concerning whom
there is an account given in Genesis.

miles in height, and that he drank

of Noah and often visited the old gem

Finally the giant incurred Noah's

Sweet and Dry Wine and That whicl

Sweet and Dry Wine and That Which
Comes In Magnums.
IL is commonly said in this country
that the best Fiench champagnes are
sent to Russia and the United States.
1t is said III England, however, that the
best French ohampagnes are sent to Rus
SID and Great Britain and that the best
cannot stand the voyage to America.
Wherever the truth rests, it is pretty
well known that the champagnes con-
sumed in France itself are not what
Americans esteem the best. The French

called dry wine would be esteemed

foundation. It is occasionally affirmed
that great deal of so called champagne
is made Of gooseberries.
"My dear boy,'' said famous cham
pagne grower to a young Englishman
visiting him, that story. about cham
pagne made from gooseberiies is absurd,
for the reason that it is much cheaper
to make 1t from grapes thanxrom goose
berries. Perhaps if it were not we
might-well, I'll not say what we
might do F"
There is popular belief that mag
mum of champagne is a big bottle of the
very finest wine produced, and magnums
are always named in the accounts that
come from luxurious banquets. AS mat
ter of fact magnum is likely to contain
a comparatively inferior wine of its
brand and for an excellent reason.
Sparkling champagne is distinguished
from still wine by the factof being ma
tured in the bottle. But, unhappily, it
is difficult to make a bottle larger than
a quart that will be strong enough at
all points to resist the force of the gases
generated in the process Of maturing.
Even the champagne bottled in quarts is
lost in considerable quantities by the
breaking Of the bottles during the proc
ess Of fermentation. So the mngnuin of
is filled from small bottles I
after the process of fermentation is COM |
plete, and from that fact the wine thus
bottled is less likely to be the best Of its
brand than that bottled in quarts.
When large London wine dealer
was giving great dinner, a feature of
the table decoration was an enormous
bottle Of champagne wreathed with
flowers. 1t had been especially prepared
in France and was said to be the largest
bottle of champagne ever imported into
Great Britain. The bottle was greatly
admired by the guests, number Of
buyers, but disaster follow
ed, for the bottlo was too weak for the
wine, and in the midst of the meal,
doubtless owing to a rise in tempera-
ture, broke. and the table was suddenly
flooded with. frothing champagne.
1t is noteworthy, however, on the
other hand, that champagne in quarts
is likely to he better in quality than
in pints, because the wine
natures better in the larger bottle. OF
course the difference is not noticeable
by the ordinary consumer, not blessed,
or cursed, with a delicately sensitive
palate. New York Sun.

son appeared to her and told her that if
she would go to a certain corner of the
house and dig she would find fiat
rock, underneath which she would find
lot of silver money. The woman

over the vision that she aroused some of

the flat rock was reached and removed

was taken out and opened, and to the

A Small

1t is very often that the most insig-

Cancer, and in majority of cases it

tracted, until 1t before long develops
into most alarming conditions.
Here is such case, where the first
symptoms were too small to be noticed
for quite time. Mr.. j. B. Arnold be-

geatcd by Autumnal Equinox.
Jackets and Capes for Fall - The New
Sleeve as Applied to Fall Wraps
-lapes OF Dainty De-
sign.
lcoPYRiuHr. 1861


LepoX.-When the summer girl standi
with reluctant feet where the summer
and autumn meet she begins to think OF
many things in the way of brave adorn
ment, and to wonder-well, for one
thing, if the new sleeve is in any wise
applicable to outer raiment, and, FOL
another, what may prove the prevailing
type of autumn jacket.
Fluff of lace is not yet quite put away
for the bright fiuttering creatures that
gather to watch the boat races on the
Stockbridge bowl lift their field glasses
with hands bewristed in white cuffs,
and their immaculate white sailor col
lars are edged with lace, as in real salt
water yachting they would never be.
The smartest and newest golfng suit
here, frankly influenced by English
modes, adopts tight sleeve with but
the slightest suggestion of fullness ut
the shoulder. The skirt bottom and
cuffs are heavily stitched about five
inches from the edge; there is white
strap belt; the bodice is double-breas;-
ed, and in the collar, rather oddly, there
is a panel of black velvet such as one
sees on mems overcoats. The material
is what is called heather mixture" a
sort of fnely-chopped hash of the clan
tartan colors. Fitted with spotless
white tam cap or with Glengarry IN
the heather mixture, the same suit
would do finely for bicycling, were the
| skirt cut somewhat shorter.
Another combination which stamps
itself as "new" at glance-a walking
dress-has rather quieter mixed colors
strap belt and jacket with double
