A Nofseless City.

No other city is as quiet as Berlin.
Railway engines are not allowed to
blow their whistles within the city linn
it's. There is no loud bawling by
hucksters, and a man whose wagon
gearing is loose and rafting is subject
to a fine. The courts have large dis
erection as to fines for noise-making
Strargest Of all, piano-playing is regu-
lated IL i,eliin. Before q certain hour
in the Gay and after certain hour in
the night the piano must be silent in
that musical city. Even during playing
hours fine is imposed for mere bang
ing on the piano. In Paris it is only
during the carnival and on fete days
that the sound of the French horn is
tolerated. At other seasons it is rigor-
ously prohibited by the police. German
intolerance of noise is not a recent
thing. Wallenstein, who demanded abb
solute quiet, had $50 houses torn down
in Prague and sentries posted all
around in the distance to secure silence.
There is tradition that still further
back in time Bohemian shepherd, see
ing the monk Adelbert asleep, blew on
his pipe in mischief. The monk called
down the curse of deafness on him.

dalton on that side. Take another
piece of different color and sew along
the other side of the black, to cover the
remaining muslin. At the corner, let
one color overlap the other diagonally,
hemming it down upon the right side.
From the inner end of this diagonal line
make several stitches upon the black
in fan shape with a ght-colored floss.
This completes the block.
Plan the size of pillow that you wish
to make, and then piece as many blocks
as will be required. Twenty or %
inches makes good-sized pillow, and
for the latter 121 blocks will be needed.
AS different colors are employed, any
odds and ends can be made use of.
The pillow is handsomely set off by a
wide bias ruffle of black silk or goods
like that used in the corner of each
block. Or this ruf1e can be made of
ribbon. If there is not sufficient of
the black goods for the ruffle, the edge
can be finished with a cord, and the
underside of the pillow can be made

THROUGH PANAMA.
How an Isthmfan Canal Would AZ
feet the Commerce OF
the World.

The situation may thus be summar-
lied: The existing lines of trade seem
sufficient to carry the products between
countries that are in line with an
isthmus canal. To multiply ships will
not make trade, as the products to be
traded in must first be raised. A sur
vey of the east and its needs and sup
plies leads to the conviction that an
economic revolution must take place
before any great change in production
and expansion of commerce can be eX-
pected. In South America the centers
of production are on the eastern coast,
and would receive little demand from
Asia or the west of the United States.
What is obtained from the west coast
of South America will bear transport
round the Horn. The carriage of mer-
chandise between the Atlantic and Pa
eiic coasts of the United States alone
may offer prospect of some small in
crease, but this increase cannot be
measured. The rise of the Suez passage
in Importance is no gauge of Panama
canal, for the productions of India and
Australia, which have more and more
appealed to the markets of Europe, and
made the canal what it is, will still use
that path, and find little or no advan-
tage is passing through Panama. My
conclusion is that a canal will be an
undoubted commercial convenience; it
is not necessity. It will not result in
an immediate or extensive development
of trade among the continents, and the
commercial interests of the United
States in any event are of even less i'm
portance than the interests of Europe.

High Tension Electricity.

Prof John Trowbridge has been MAX
ing some most interesting investiga-
tons in high tension electricity, using
only very high voltage storage bat
terry and system of condensers. The
apparatus gave a four-foot spark
Nothing could insulate it; not even a
v,Vcuum tube. 1t proved satisfactorily
the futility of endeavoring to insulate
a lis~htning-rod. The great spark rep
resen ted over 100000 of volts tension.
For Aghtning-fash mile long this
ratio would give something like 1,oO0,-
o00,OO0,o00 of volts. The experiments
are of special interest as the absence of
an Induction coil enables the voltage to

In one of the rivers in California, gold
is collected by means of an iron cylin-
der, which is constructed somewhat on
the principle Of diving bell. The
cylinder containing the workman is
lowered, air is forced into it, and by a
series of pipes under pressure, the
workman sends the gravel from the
river bottom up to the deck of the boat.
There it is poured into proper recep-
tacles, is sluiced and washed, and the
gold separated from the refuse. While
the men engaged in this work do not
gather gold in Klondike quantities,
they make fine living, and one aich
they think they may depend upon for
a long time.-N. Y. Ledger.

Seven Wonder. of the world.


We have no indication of the exist
ence of cycle of seven wonders until
about the end of the second century B.
C. Then appears, in an epigram of
Antipater of Sidon, an enumeration of
seven great works, which prove to be
the very ones later appearing as the
seven wonders. They are: (D the
Walls of Babylon; (2) the Statue of
Zeus at Olympia; (3) the Hanging Gar
dens Of Semiramis at Babylon; ca the
Colossus of Rhodes; (5) the Pyramids
of Memphis; (6) the Mausoleum of
Halicarnassus; CD the Temple of Diana
(Artemis) at Ephesus. Within the next
century, Varro, by his leisurely allusion
to the septem opera, betrays that the
saying had already assumed current
proverbial form. Diodorus, in the Sec
ond half of the same century (frst B.
CO., speaks, too, of "the so-called seven
works." and Strabo, little later, uses
the very phrase, "the seven wonders"
From this time on, at least, the septem
miracula have an assured place in all
the common lore of Rome. The little
Greek treatise, "On the Seven Won
ders," which has come down to us in
incomplete form, and under the name
of Philo of Byzantium, an engineer of
the second century B. c., is really, as it's
style and artificial purisms amply
show, the work of some rhetorician of
the fifth or sixth century after Christ,
and in no wise chargeable against the
otherwise blameless record of the ex-
cellert man of facts and machines. The
list it gives is the same as that found
in Antipater's epigram.-Prof. Benia-
min Ide Wheeler, in Century.

GENUINE IRISH STEW.
How 20 Make It Out Of the Food Ger
orally Thrown Away.

orally Thrown Away.
We are not apt to regard the irish
peasantry as either thrifty or patterns
in any matters of cooking, yet the
canny Scotch are no. more severe econ
omists than the Irish of the northern
country. The genuine Irish stew is
dish that deserves every praise. tits as
great a success in it's way as Scotch
broth of mutton, and it is culinary
lesson in the use of what people general
ly throw away.
To make this dish the peasant
secures what scraps of meat and bones
ne can get for few cents. The pur-
chase is chiefly bone, and the meat is
either beef or mutton, or it may be OF
both.
The bone and meat are separated and
the fat is removed. The best way to
make the broth is TO throw the meat
in one kettle and the bones in another,
and cover them both with cold water.
After the contents of the two kettles
have simmered very slowly for one
hour salt is added. The cook now gath
ers any sound vegetable tops. the green
tops of celery, the green leaves outside
the cabbage, which in less thrifty parts
Of the land are the perquisite of the pig
These are chopped together and added
to the kettle containing the bones, and
simmered with them for the next hour.
For every two quarts of the stew two
small onions cut in slices are added.
When they have simmered half an
hour, six small potatoes, cut in quar-
tiers, are put in. When the potatoes
have cooked half an hour, strain the
broth off the bones and chopped vege-
tables, pressing the vegetables hard to
extract all the pulp and flavor from
them. Thicker the strained broth with
a heaping tablespoonful of flour mixed
with large tablespoonful of butter.
If mutton is used the broth must be
carefully skinned before adding the
thickening. Let the thickening cook
in the stained broth for ten minutes,
stirring it carefully, then pour it in the
kettle of meat, onions and potatoes.
Let the stew simmer moment or two,
stirring it constantly. Taste it to see
If it needs more salt, add pepper, and
serve at once.
1t is largely pot of luck, depending
upon the vegetables at hand and the
mount of meat it contains; but it is
nutritious, even when it is made largely
If vegetables, and it is always excellent.
