Rolling Our Food.

There is undoubtedly great deal to
be said in favor of the opinion that
a considerable portion of the illness in
this country is caused by the unpleas.
ant habit Of eating too rapidly. OF
course we all know, and have at
times a very painful experience Of
the fact that this is a high pressure
age, and all is done at express speed
but this surely ought not to be the
case with our meals. 1t is Interestingly
but not pretty, to watch the business
man when he goes into restaurant
for his luncheon. 1t is with him
looked upon in the light Of duty and
not a pleasure. He must eat, and he
feels that he has only few minutes
to devote to the operation, so that he
may be back at his Office with all pos
sible speed. He attacks his food saw
agely, gulps down his beer or wine
and when the last sad rites are over
he pays and bolts-in fact, 1t is a case
Of boiling from beginning to end. EV'
cry doctor will tell you that people
should eat slowly, and occupy the
time pleasantly with conversation. ID
this way we shall live longer and en-
Joy better health and greater ability
to cope with the world,-New Yorh

ever been In in all dis life. And. ohIs
by Jove. he reminded himself that ne
had forgotten, or more correctly he had
never known, what the old lady's name
was. Dorothy had called her "auntie.
and he had naturally said your aunt"
and he had come away without know
ing what her name and state were,
whether she was wife, widow or maid.
However, he did not let that trouble
him much, and he drove gayly along
between the sweet wild hedgerows, feel
ing as if the soft September air, just
tempered with breeze off the sea,
was air of an Arcadian land, and such
Objectionable persons as aristocratic re-
lations did not exist in all the world.
And then when he reached Graveleighy
the long struggling village street with
its quaint old-world shops and its odd
little postofice, he pulled up the good
horse and stopped to make inquiries.
Can you tell me where GraVelelgh
Hall is?'' he asked Of a respectable
woman.
why, yes, sir-you do go along that
road and take the first turn to the right
and then 20 do come to it," she re-
piled.
"Ah, thanks. By-the-bye, what is
the name of the lady who lives there?"
he asked, carelessly.
miss Dimsdale. she do live at the
Hail." the woman replied. "And Miss
Dorothy, she do live with her."
"Thank you very much" said Dick,
pleasantly.
The good woman watched him as he,
drove along. Another Of 'em after
Miss Dorothy" she said to herself.
And Dick drove gally along, getting
more and more light hearted as he
went; for was he not getting nearer
and nearer with every stride of old
Derby's legs to her? But he did not
get to the hall without being further
watched. Scarce was he past the end
of the village before he met David Ste
venson, wearing the light clothes and
CATERS of country gentleman who
looks after his own farming, and David
scowled at him murderously. Happily
Dick neither saw his rival nor his
black looks, and drove on, Ticking like
a schoolboy at the hedges as he passed.
BRUTAL interloper!" David growled
out between his strong teeth, as he
stood leaning over the gate, watching
the retreating dog-cart. "Going there,
Of course"

DECORATION DAY.

Decoration Day in Wheeling this
year. owing to the fact that May 80
comes on Sunday, and in the absence
of an understanding on the subject,
will virtually be spread over three
DAYS. Some of the merchants, such as
the wholesalers, will observe the day
on Saturday, although the rest will OBJ
serve Monday as the holiday, while
the Decoration Day exercises proper
the decoration of the graves of the
soldier dead. will be held on the day
itself, Sunday.
II is just as well. In view of the
sacred character of the day and the

over a weeks time and We would be

Oh. it's a beautiful split that among
our Republican friends over in Ohio,
and one that will not be patched up
no. never. The convention OF
silver Republicans held at Columbus
Thursday to perfect a silver Republi-
can organization in Ohio and elect del
eeates to the National Silver Republic
can Convention at Chicago to be held
June s. was composed of representa-
tive Republicans who can no longer
affiliate with their party.
The silver Republicans Of Ohio are
in it for keeps now, and will split the
grand old party of false prophets and
broken promises wide open in Ohio
this fall. They come out fat-footed
on the Democratic platform of free
coinage of gold and silver at the ratio
of 16 to l and rip the present national
administration up the back, the only
Ohio Republican at Washington for
whom they show any regard beng
Senator Foraker, who, by the way,
makes no secret of his sympathy for the
free coinage of silver at 16 TO l.
This Republican split in the Buck
eve State means the death-knell of
Mark Hanna. who will be quietly laid
in his political grave when the autumn
leaves begin to fall, unwept and I'M
honored except by his friends and &C
completes, the trusts.
The grand old Buckeye State is safely
Democratic this year. Paste that in
your hat.

Another example of the profound
asininity of the last Legislature is
found in the bicycle law passed by that
thoroughly incapable body. Whether
it was simply the result of stupendous
ignorance or a vicious blow aimed at
the cities of the State, the fact re-
mains that the new law, which has just
gone into effect, deprives cities OF
the right to pass any legislation with
regard to bicycle riding not in cen
formity with this State law, or in other
words. denies to the cities the right
guaranteed in their charters Of 'cS's-
lating in the interests of their own
safety and comfort. Luckily there is
little doubt that this insane piece Of
legislation is unconstitutional, is Was
most of the legislation of any impor[-
ance passed by the last Legislature Of
boss-ridden ignoramuses.

ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.
Something Shout the Way In which
They Are Made.

Thev Are Made.
The ancient Egyptians made artificial
flowers of horn shaviugs, stained i'm
various colors. and leaves Of painted
linen have been found in tombs at
Thebes. From a remote period tho
Chinese have used the pith of n GER
tain kind OF bamboo for making flow
ers. Crassus, one Of the Roman trl-
umvirs. was the first In Rome to have
them made of gold and silver. During
the middle ages flowers made of metal.
satin. silk. wax and paper were used
In the Roman Catholic Church with
symbolical Specifications; on fcstal oc-
caslons they were worn merely for or
namcnt. In 1882 Seguin, a botanist
and chemist. began the manufacture of
flowers In Paris, employing parchment
for the flowers and bristles for the
stems. His work was so perfect ant
artistic that the jealousy Of some OF
the leading painters was aroused. From
that time the manufacture Of artificial
flowers steadily grew and developed In
France, and to-day tho French excel In
them. Tho art was introduced into
England during the French revolution
by refugees who made use Of II az a
means Of subsistence. IL has been sue
cessfully n~aturalized In the United
States. Knives Of various sizes and
shapes. stamps. yoffering-irops OF dif-
fcrcnt kinds, moulds called vciners.
and agate or glass bu%rnishers, are the
chief tools made use of in the manu-
facture. The leaves and the petals are
usually made Of silk or cambrlc, the
material to he shaped is folded several
times. laid upon n leaden table. and "a
stamp Is driven through It. Gofferlng-
irons are made use of to hollow the
petals; v%elners. as the name implies.
arc used to vein the leaves, and tho
burnishcrs are employed to give the
petals n polished appearance. The
stamens and plstils are formed OF wire
covered with silk; the stalk IL made OF
wire coated with n green material. and
liz fixed to the stems and pistils.
around which are attached the petals
and. lastly, the calyx. Buds are made
Of cotton or glass balls covered with
silk or cambria. The florists fingers.
guided by skill and taste. have much
to do with the beauty OF the flowers
produced; great ingenuity Is often dis
played even In a cheap sprig consist
ing of several materials well put to-
gether and arranged. French whole
sale houses engaged In the manufacture
Of artificial flowers have each some
special branch: thus. one makes only
roses. another wild flowers. n third
leaves. etc. The best and most expcn'
sive flowers are hand-painted.

simple enough. Among the patriots of
the Partisan Commune there were two
Caussidieres, in nc way related TO each
other, but equally doubtful In their
conduct, and their antecedents: and II
happened. curiously enough, that our
Caussidiere's alter ego had also been
arrested for reasonable practices.
The Paris Of those days has been
compared to Pandemonium; everything
was one wild frenzy Of hurried and
aimless haste: and the newspaper re-
ports. like the events they chronicled,
being chaotic and irresponsible, It hap
pcned that the fate Of one individual
was confused with the fate OF the other.
At the very moment that one Caussi-
diere was lying dead before the sol
Gicrs Of the Commune the other was
escaping in disguise toward the Bel.
gian coast, whence, after divers vlcis-
STUDIES, he sailed for England, to reap
pear finally in Annandale, like a ghost
from the grave, as we have seen.
