is a tiny arrangement, made in two
sizes, a ten-foot circle or f~ourteen-foot
circle. The smaller ones have four
seats, but can be arranged with four
more, thus seating eight little ones at
a time. For ordinary use the smaller
ones are popular, the additional seats
being adjusted when a larger party
wishes to ride. 1t is noiseless, strong
and handsome, made of hard wood,
steel and iron. The wood is natural
oil finish, and the metal parts painted
black or bronze. 1t ear be taken apart
or put up in five minutes without any
tools, and one, two, three, or four can
ride it. 1t runs either forward or back
ward with equal ease. Their is no
possible danger of accident, the seat
arms being made of strong steel.
The little ones may be strapped to the
seat arms. These seats are adjustable
in height, so hat children of various
sizes may have them the proper height
to enjoy a healthful exercise without
straining themselves.
While it is made expressly for the
house, it can be taken out of doors or
to entertainment halls, and in case OF
warm weather a canopy can be had Of
either size to protect the children from
the heat of the sun.
AS children are always attracted by a
merry-go-round, this one on a small
scale for the home or lawn, will prove
exceedingly popular.

THE NEW WOMAN IN 'EARNEsT.
Women All Over the Would Taking I'm
Mems Work.

HI NEW WOMAN IN EARNEST,
Mems Work.
Miss Colfax has had charge of the
Michigan City lighthouse for about
thirty-fve years, says the New York
Journal She was a cousin of the late
Vice-PreAident Colfax. Her assistant is
Miss Ann Hartwell, who is also her
dear friend. Mrs. Th eodosia B. Shep-
herd Of southern Cali fornia conducts a
wholesale and retail business in bulbs,
seeds and plants. She also grows rare
and valuable plants and has brought
out several new blossoms. She has very
large greenhouses. Miss Alice Farley is
the proprietor of a large cotton planta-
ton in Louisiana. The estate came to
her by inheritance, and as her health
was never good at home she decided to
leave New York and try plantation life.
She has met with SUCCESS, not only
physically but also financially. Women
are teaching the amazed old world
a whole lot of lessons nowadays.
Wholesome lessons they are, too, for
the most part. Lessons in pluck and
thrift and independence and matter-of-
fact courage. When a woman is left
with a living to earn, and no regular
way to earn it, she does not retire to
a nunnery and weep her heart away.
She goes to work-and we'll, just read
this list of women who have answered
the question of How to eat three
meals a day and pay for them" Mrs.
Hill of southern California is a most
successful ranch me When she was
left a widow she had three little chill
dren and a small ranch, which was COW
cred with a mortgage of 81, 400. She first
took b%oarders; then, when she could
afford the time and money, she raised
chickens for market. This was fol-
lowed by working the ranch in a gen.
eral way. When the debt was paid off
she added to her possessions, until now
her ranch includes 400 acres. Two hun
dred acres she plants now with py-
rethrum. The blossom of this plant is
dried and ground into powder used to
kill insects. The water-nill, where
the grinding is done, Mrs. Hill built.
Upon the rest of her ranch she grows
flowers and fruits and nuts. She en-
ploys nearly 100 workers, including
men, women and children. Her chill
dren are highly educated. Mrs. Hills
property is valued at more than $780,
600. Mrs. Pollock of Pittston, Pa,
mends shoes. Her husband was cob
bier and she frequently assisted him
through a rush. When she was left
dependent upon her own she
bravely picked up the last and awl and
continued her husbands business. This
new DEPARTURE woman cobbler-cre-
ated much CONSERVATION in the neigh
borhood. This dismay resulted in a de-
cided decrease in patronage. But Mrs.
Pollock knew the way to a woman's
heart and offered to mend shoes at bar
gain rates. When she cut down the
rates fixed by her husband the women
ventured to try her. She turned out
such good work and the orders were
so promptly filled at the low prices
that she soon had a large trade. She
now employs a man to assist sher, and
earns from $40 to $25 a week.

A Clerical Suggestion.

He was a thin, fragile young preach
or, but not half so helpless as he
looked. He could see and hear what
was going On, even during the last
prayer. Just before the very closing
service he said calmly, but with a good
deal of impressiveness to the square
inch, Those of the congregation who
did not get their things all on during
the prayer, can do SO while l pro-
nounce the benediction." During
which, however, the audience could
hear each others watches tick.

Buttons and Combs Made of Milk.

Buttons and Combs Made of MILK.
For a long time buttons and other ar
ticles for which bone is generally used
purchased at the slaughter-houses, and
treated with some substance that hard
ems it to the sufficient consistency. The
same articles can be made from milk
by a process invented by an English
man. The milk used is the skim milk.
The process of turning this liquid into
buttons, pool balls. combs, backs of
brushes and similar articles consists
of mixing it with a substance the ingre-
dents of which are a secret of the in.
ventor, and COMPRISING it. At the
end of three days the substance is as
solid as celluloid, and is ready to be
cut and shaped in any way the manu-
facturer wishes. At present a factory
in Holland is engaged in fashioning
the hardened milk into various arti-
cles, buttons being the chief. The but
tons made in this peculiar way differ
very little in appearance from ordinary
bone buttons. They are a creamy
white in appearance, but can be col
ored black or red or any other color
by simply mixing the coloring mat
ter with the milk before the hardening
process begins. They are said to pos
sess advantages over the bone and
celluloid article in being less brittle
and less liable to chip. For combs the
milk substance has been found to be
especially well adapted, as it is smooth
and delicate to the touch, and derives
from it's creamy origin a glossy sur
face. In the same way it Is a good sub
stitute for ivory in billiard and pool
balls.

that etching might be done on stone in
stead of copper. He had a stone pre-
pared, and was about to carry his idea
into execution when a circumstance
happened that placed etching on stone
in the background, and brought into
existence a new art, that OF Htho-
graphy. Let Senefelder tell the story
in his own words: 81 had just sue
ceeded in my little laboratory in pol
lshing a stone plate, which l Intended
to cover with etching ground, when
my mother entered the room and de-
sired me to write her a bill for the
Washerwcman, who was waiting Tor
the linen. l happened not to have the
smallest slip of paper at hand, as my
little stock of paper had been exhaust
ed by taking proof impressions from
the stones, nor was there a drop OF ink
in the inkstand. AS the matter would
not admit of delay, l resolved to write
the list with my ink prepared with wax,
soap and lamp black, on the stone
which l had just polished, and from
which I could copy it at leisure. Some
time after this ] was going to rub the
writing from the stone, when the idea
all at once struck me to try what would
be the effect of such a writing with my
prepared ink if 1 were to bite in the
stone with aquafortis; and whether,
perhaps, it might not be possible to ap-
ply printing ink to it in the same way
as to wood %engravings, and to take
impressions from it," M. Senefelder
surrounded the stone with a border OF
wax, and applied aquafortis, by which
the writing was raised in a few min
utes. Printing ink was next applied
with a common printers ball, impress
sions were taken off, and the practical
bility of the important art of lth-
ography was established.
1t may be interesting to add that the
Duke of Wellington was the first to
apply this art to a useful purpose
when he in the Peninsular war by its
means prepared copies of dispatches
orders and sketches of positions.

ant Capture.
On Monday the 18th, Harold Marouisee. OF
Utica, N. Y, was arrested in Syracuse. N,
y, on a warrant sworn out by the DR..
Williams Medicine Co., charging him with
forgery. On the 18th of December Maraui-
see visited n photo-engraver in Syracuse,
saying he was the representative OF the DIR:
Williams Medicine Co., and arranged for
the making of a full set of plates for the di-
rectlon sheets, tables, etc, of the famous
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
news of this reached the home office, and
no ZINE was lost in arranging for his arrest
wnen he should return for the plates. He
returned on the 10Th and was accordingly
arrested and is now in jail in Syracuse
awaiting examination.
This arrest proves to be an important one.
In addition to various plumber, such as
medical books, typewriters, rugs, etc,
round IN Morquisee's trunk when arrested,
the police also found counterfeit coin both
III the trunk and on his person; and in
a search of his apartments at Utica found
a complete outfit for counterfeiting con-
slstlng of crucib!os, bellows, nickel, lead,
Disinuth, antlmony, a small blacksmith
forge, a charcoal furnace, and several
plasfer-of-paris molds. The United States
1parshals want him Just ms soon as the DR..
Williams Medicine Co. are through with
him, and, no doubt, he will be sentenced
for a long period.
In selecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
his counterfeiting operations, he showed
his knowledge of the proprietary medical
business; for these pills are in such great
demand that they are easily sold at any
drug store in the United States. His scheme
was to work the country druggists and sell
his limitations at a discount of from 2 per
cent to . per cent, explaining the reduced
price by the fact that he had picked them
up in small lots and at a discount from
dealers who were Over-stockcd. By work
ing faSt and making long Jumps, he would
have secured many hundreds of dollars in
short time. The proprietors of DR.. Viii
liams' Pink Pills are most fortunate to
have caught the rogue, before he had fair
ly started, and to have thus kept these
spurious goods out of the market.
