collection Of Chinese kites. which exhibit
versatile ingenuity Of continuance in fly

Of Americans. The small boy Of the United
States, born an inventor because he is a
Yankee, thinks he Is performing a feat If
he succeeds In causing to soar simple

ton to the Chinese kite as is borne by the
mint Ratchet to the modern ak.
In the collection spoken Of are kites In
the shape Of frogs, lizards cranes, owls,
gigantic flies and enormous grasshoppers
But by far the most extraordinary is a kite
thirty feet long, in the shape of snake
IKE dragon. No one but Chinaman or q
Japanese would suppose that such a thing
could be flown. 1t is composed Of a number
or pasteboard disks, each q foot in dame

which has a Notwithstanding paper head.
The string held by the manipulation of this
interesting plaything is attached at three
or more points in the length of the dragon,

air While afioat the long tail has an un-
dulating and serpentine motion, thus pro-
ducing very realistic effect.

A woman Who Found One Method of
suicide Impra cticable.
From the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.
At AIMS Mills, a little hamlet near New
Vile. Pa, lives Alexander Geese, a we'll
known farmer and respected citizen. His
wife. Sarah Jane Geese, has a reputation
as being one Of the heaviest women, If not
the heaviest. in the county. OF recent
years her weight has been steadily in
creasing. until now she weighs over 300
pounds. She and her husband have twelve
children, and their domestic life has been
happy, but her size has evidently preyed
upon her mind, making her Respondent
Yesterday morning she left her home and
proceeded to the banks of the Conodoguinet
creek, stream about 100 feet in width,

troubles.
She had neglected to consider a subject
which has an important bearing on a pro-
ject such as hers, that of specific gravity
She was too fat, and despite her most des-
perate Efforts her body would not sink, and
although she tried to hold her head under

succeed. Her heavy body turned over and

CREMATION IN NEW ENGLAND.

Spray of Petroleum Produces a Tenn
perature of 5000 Degrees Fahrenheit.
From the Boston Evening Transcript.
When the stockholders Of the Massachu-
sets Cremation Society meet to hear the
reports of officers and to review the second
year Of the society's existence, they will
find that, contrary to the experience Of
most cremation societies, the second year Of
this one has been more successful than the
first. In most societies the second year
shows falling off in the number OF Gre
nations due to tagging interest. After
that the number of cremations has shown
steady increase. The Massachusetts socie-
ty began the cremation of bodies January
4, 1884. and In the first year eighty-seven
bodies were thus disposed of, some Of them
having been held for cremation from the
last months Of the preceding year. This
year eighty-five bodies have been cremated
an actual increase in number over last year
Of about ten.
Perhaps no more forcible argument has
been made in favor of cremation as a mode
of disposing of the bodies Of the dead than
the experiences Of the contractors who were
engaged In the construction Of the subway,
who found it necessary to remove two or
three hundred bodies along the Boylston
street mall, and bury most of them together
IN trenches The members of the society
point to this fact as one of the most strik-
ing illustrations of the advantages of Gre
nation. The growth of cremation has been
slow, but 1t has been sure. The first Gre
julius LIE Moyne in Washington, Pa, in
1875. In the first decade only thirty-six
bodies were cremated; in the second decade
264 bodies.
The Boston system differs from that Of
most other tncinerators in that a spray of
superheated petroleum Is used, and a heat
of 5000 degrees can be secured. Under this
system expensive collins are unnecessary,

FROM the London Spectator.
May give another instance of the power
which dogs seem to possess Of understand
Ing what is said in their presence? We
have black and-tan terrier called Jack
who has rooted objection of spending a
night alone, and is therefore allowed to
sleep with one Of my brothers A short
time ago they were all from home and an
order was given early in the evening Jack
being presently that he was to sleep with the
groom away from the house. Jack, who al
ways remains in the room until the rest of
the household retire, disappeared this par
ucular evening very soon after the order
was given. and was not seen again. When
we went upstairs. however. there he was
curled up in an armchair in my youngest
sisters bed room. evidently settled for the
night and as we entered he looked up and
wagged his tail. as IL he were begging to be
allowed to stay. As he had never been
known to go to bed early by himself, or in
that particular room. We all felt sure he
had understood the order, and hoped by
these means to escape.

TREATING THE WRONG

How large bills are run up without

Many times women call on their family

from dyspepsia, another from nervous dis
ease, another from liver or kidney disease,
another with pain here and there, and In
this way they all present alike to them

and potions assuming them to be such,

clan ignorant of the cause of suffering, en-.
courages his practice until large bills ara
made. The suffering patient gets no better,
but probably worse, by reason of the delay,

tons. A proper medicine, like DR.. Pierce's

It Is Manifested in the Most Ordinary
 Conversations.
 The gift of the Irish peasant for making expressive and humorous phrases is not by any means a fiction of literature. The use of pat" phrases is natural to him.
 A clerical traveller in Cavan not long ago asked peasant how far it was to a certain village and was answered: ''Two miles,"
 ''What! Only two miles?" said the traveller, who had before traversed the distance and found it 8 long road.
 ''Wel, your reverence" answered the peasant, ''it is two miles shtrong and rich, so to spake!''
 A somewhat similar story is told by one of Lord Zetiard's party, who were making inquiries into the condition of distressed district. They were cross ing a lake; gale was blowing and waves were dashing over the boat.
 The gentleman referred to had been assured that an Irish peasant, if treated well, will always agree with what is said to him rather than appear disagree able. 1t struck the gentleman that here was good chance to put the assertion to the proof.
 ''There is very little wind, Pat" he said to one of the boatmen.
 The answer came through the howl ing of the elements:
 Every little, indade, yer honor, but fwhat there is is moighty shtrong!' Save Assessment Work on Mines The new law requires annual work on every location or relocation.
