Whore the Colors Como From.

Few people-even artists themselves
know where the colors used in the
arts come from. It is an interesting
fact that one small paint hox will
often represent the four quarters of
the globe, and oil sorts of materials,
animal, vegetable and mineral. The
cochineal insect supplies the carmines
and rich crimson, scarlet and purple
lakes. Sepla is the inky fluid dis
charged by the devilish cutie fish.
Indian yellow is from the urine of the
camel and ivory black and bono black
from ivory chips. Prussian blue is
made by fusing horses hoofs and other
refuge matter with impure potassium
carbonate, an accidental discovery.
Blue black Is from the charcoal OF the
vine.stalk. Turkey red is derived
from the madden plant Of Hindostan.
Gnmboge is q yellow sap of tree,
which the people of Siam catch in co.
coR1ut shells. Raw Sienna is the not
urnal earth from Sienna, Italy. When
burned it is Burnt Sienna. Amber is
from Umbria. India ink is from
burnt camphor. Bistre is tho SCOT Of
wood ashes OF real ultramarine
there is little in tho market, as IL fs
made from the precious lapis lazuH,
and commands a big price. Chinese
white is zinc, scarlet is iodide OF mer-
curry and native vermilion comes from
quicksilver ore.

An Armenian Bridegroom.

Notwithstanding the Turk, the Ar
menians still marry, and q writer in
Chambers's Journal explains the get-up
Of the groom:
A brawny barber, his arms bare to
the elbow, bustles in. His assistant
carries a chair. over which is spread n
lowered towel. Then enters pro-
cession. The bridegroom, his coun-
tenance of ashen palior, lit has been
Toured for the occasion) totteIs along,
supported by sympathizing friends.
After he is shaved by the barber, q
variety of costly and wonderful gar
ments ore put upon him, ell Of them
gifts from his fair Gemira. Fourteen
OF the bridegroom's brothers, each
holding n candle in the right hand,
strip him TO the skin, and then re-
clothe him new undergarments,
three green silk waiscoats, o blue silk
robe, sash, lowered white satin over
coat, two jackets over that, long
loose blue robe, and new fez. Tho
stockings, however, do not fit, and
the bridegroom grumbles. Then he
kisses my hands, and sits down beside
mo on the divan.
~ suppose you're very happy?' I
somewhat intelicitously ask, not
knowing how 10 begin.
Re smiles rs II in pain.
"You love your bride very much ?"
Very much, indeed"

An Improved White House.

The residence of the President OF
United States ought to be worthy
of the Office. The present White
House is equal to all the requirements
of such a residence, so far as it goes.
1t is q simple and dignified building,
whose beauty is q constant delight to
appreclative persons. 1t was con-
ceived and carried out by the archi-
tect who planned it in TIE proper
spirit, but 1t is not large enough for
the purposes to which it is necessarily
put. The country and the city of
Washington have grown, and the Presi-
dents house has not grown with them.
a large part of it is given up to the
business Offices OF the President, his
private secretary, and his clerks, and
the residents family are deprived of
the use OF another large part OF tho
necessarily on public view most of the
time. The family is therefore cramped
for proper accommodations, and there
are no rooms for the entertainment of
guests. Moreover the house is so
badly arranged as to entrances, exits
and Railways that a state reception
there is always an uncomfortable and
dangerous JAM, while many an invited
guest, and many officers who attend
certain functions under orders, have
been made seriously i'll because they
have been compelled to stand for
hours in cold or stormy weather until
they could gain admittance through
the single door that can be used for
the purpose.
The deficiencies of the White House
nre so thoroughly recognized in Wash
ington that for many years efforts
have been making to secure worthier
accommodations for the President.
Some of these efforts have been in the
wrong direction, because they have
contemplated other buildings, foreign
to the intent and character of tho
White House, within the same grounds.
Other efforts still are attempts of
spectators to movo the site of the
marsion to the hills north of the city.
The White House, with all its
charms and memories, should be pre-
served, and it should remain on its
present beautiful and historic site, its
fine grounds uucncumbered by other
structures. In furtherance Of this
idea, plan prepared by Mr.. Arthur
j. Dillon shows ccnclusively that the
White House can be made not only
abundantly spacious, but even i'm
proved, while its architectural features
will be at the same time preserved

The Iron RIMS of 1913

A great inquiry is now being mado
in different German towns for the iron
mourning rings OF the year 1918. The
history of these curious memorials of
German patriotism may not be gener.
ally known. During the National
awakening against Napoleon in 1918
the princess Of the royal house made
On appeal to the people for the sacri'
fee of personal ornaments not unlike
that made by the Long Parliament at
the beginning of our civil wars. Gold
mourning rings were consequently
sent in immense numbers to the treas
ury In Berlin, and each sender re-
ceived in acknowledgment an iron
ring upon which was inscribed "Gold
give for Iron" From Swinemunde
alone no fewer than IA gold rings
were sacrificed to the Fatherland, and
iron rings sent thither ia exchange.
Specimens OF these iron rings are now
worth more than their weight in gold.

EVANSVILLE, w. VA, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 1897.

Winfield recognized the nct that he
had been discovered at the last mo-
ment on his way to the Continent, and
guessing that he would be arrested at
Basingstroke, must have jumped off
the train in q moment of desperation.
Whether the unhappy man was killed
or escaped remains mystery, no trace
of him having been discovered"
"What do you think of that !" said
my mate.
"Wen," said, ''I think he half de-
served to escape on account of his
pluck. And-well. he was the fness
liar I've ever met"
The fireman nodded his head slowly,
and then said:
"Well, had my doubts most of the
time. He was too fine liar for me !"

A Canine Cotton Picker.

Among the great many almost de-
crepit old women who earn rather
precautions livelihood by picking up
and reselling the waste cotton that
falls from the bales about the streets
and warehouses in New Orleans, L.,
is one we'll known among the brokers
who goes by the whimsical cognomen
OF Nom katrine.
Nom Katrine is little bit of a
wizened colo-ed woman, almost too
old to walk and quite too blind to see,
but she owns an unfailing source of
revenue in the shape of a little black
and tan terror, Voudoo by name, that
is as expert q cotton-picker as one
would wish to see. Every morning,
by the time the sun has warmed the
edge off the day, Nom Katrine and
Vaudco appear on the street, the old
woman usually to take her seat on the
curbing, while the dog begins his
daily task of cotton-gathering. YOU
DOCS energy in this unwonted occupa-
ton is somewhat marvellous, SO the
warehousemen say, and it certainly is
amusiI 6 to see the little fellow dodg-
ing in and out among the bales under
the very feet of the porters, snatcbing
wad of cotton and darting with it to
Nom Katrine, who stores it away
snu9ly in her big sack, which she usu-
ally takes home full every evening.
Some of the porters think Voudoo
is a nuisance, he is such persistent
picker, but as they believe Nom Kat
rine to be witch and the dog par
ticipant in her black art, they are
afraid to drive him. and SO the two
have become regular institutions of
the ira lie. -Philadelphia Times.

A BIT OF LIFE.

A maiden sat within the door
And sang rs many times before.
A man to DAILY toll passed by.
No love nor pleasure lit his eye,
But when he heard the merry song
He whistlel as he went along.
A woman by the window wept
For one who in the churchyard slept,
But when upon her hearing fell
That tune she knew and loved so well,
The food OF burning tears was stayed.
And soon n song her lips essayei.
Her neiShbor heard the tender strain,
And softly joined the sweet refrain.
Thus, all day long that one song boro
Its ioyousness from door to door.
