Forged work. of Art.

Factories exist in Europe for the
manufacture of all kinds of works of
art that are likely to attract the col
lector. Modern articles of china are
stamped with old marks so cleverly
that even experts have been deceived.
Arms and armor are treated with acids
which eat away the metal, thus produc-
ing the same effect as the ravages of
time. Carved worries are stained with
oils to make them yellow and are sub
jected to heat to make them crack.
Pieces of furniture have holes drilled
to represent the worm holes, and SO on,
until there will in time be very little
in the way of curios which are in them
selves really curious. Paris is one of
the greatest strongholds of this class
of forgers. Forgeries in all works of
art very rarely get into the dealers
hands. AS rule they are sent to
auction rooms. Many amateurs have
an idea that they may pick up price.
less work of art or curio for q mere
song. Mr.. Wertheimer laughs at this.
That is the chance for the forgers.
They know all this and work accord
ingly, and thus the amateur is deceived.
The spurious curio makers haunt out
of-the-way auction rooms, where anna
teurs look in with the idea that nobody
but themselves can know Of the room
in question. The sale takes place, and
they come away with a gem, SO they
think, and are perfectly happy until
undeceived.-Wa Magazine.

In. London and Paris cats are more
highly priced than in the United States,
and there are frequent sales there of
tabbies at $3.50 each. Some choice cats,
with rare markings" and points"
are disposed of at $500 each. One of
the most famous cats in America is
Ajax, owned by D. w. Stevens, of West
field, Mass. His actual value has been
estimated at from $100 to $500, yet it
is doubtful if the owner would take
several times the larger sum for him.

the first prize for beauty at New

THE FIRST GEL DORADO"
Name Was Originally Used to Describe
the City or Country Which Was
the object of Search.

Every time. new gold field Is dis
covered the term "Eldorado," or "El
Dorado" as it was originally, comes
into frequent use by writers. Since
the Klondjke excitement began 1t has
been seen in print oftener than at
any time in recent years, and many
persons have wondered just what it
meant. Its derivation is of interest.
In the fifteenth century it was ru-
mored that there existed in the north
ern part of South America city Of
great wealth called Manoa, whose king,
by name Ell Dorado, was periodically
smeared with oil or balsam, and was
then powdered with gold dust until
his whole body had gilded appear
ance. 1t was said that on these occa-
sions he threw gold, emeralds and
other precious metals and gems into
q sacred lake, In which he afterward
bathed. Beginning in 1882, the Span
iards sent many large expeditions to
search for the phantom city, and most
of them ended disastrously, hundreds
of lives being lost. Among the re-
suits of these expeditions were the
conquest of New Grenada, the dis
covery of the Orinoco and Amazon and
The exploration of vast territory west
Of the Cordillera mountain range.
About the end of the sixteenth cen
tury an English expedition. with the
same object In view, penetrated Gui-
ana and founded the British colony of
that name. 1t has been supposed that
the origin of the Ell Dorado fable is
TO be found in the yearly celebration
of a tribe of Indians near Bogota,
whose chief was, on these occasions,
gilded with gold dust. The name Ell
Dorado was commonly used to de-
scribe the city or country which was
the object of the search, but later
usage Of the term has been its fgura-
tive application with regard to any
region of more than common rich
ness.-Chicago Chronicle.

FORTUNES IN osIER GROWING.
MEN Who Plant Willows Will Reap n
Large Financial Profit -
Growing Industry.

Osier growing is an4ndustry that has
O great future before it in the United
States. Experts of the department of
agriculture have been investigating the
subject recently, and they declare that
fortunes await enterprising persons
who will thus utilize the vast tracts Of
land available for this purpose. Plant
ed with the species of willows useful
for basket making, tens of thousands
of acres that are worthless for any
thing else could be made to pay an
enormous interest on the investment
not less, in fact, than 20 or 80 per cent
1t is absolutely necessary, however,
that the proper varieties should be OBJ
tanned, else the speculation will not be
o success. The average dealer is not to
be trusted on such point.
The w;ilowware industry, though as
yet In it's infancy in this country, has
been slowly growing during the last
few years. In 1890 there were in the
United States, according to the census,
403 willowware establishments, with a
capital of $2,7O0,0O0 employing 3,732
persons, paying. annually the sum of
$1,26o, 900 for wages, and producing 3d.
6s3,600 worth Of manufactured ware.
The value of raw material consumed
was $1,s9s, ,50O--an increase Of 81 per
cent. over that used in 1880.
The United States consumes a agreater
quantity of willowware than any other
country in the world. Our imports Of
fine ware from one district in Germany
amount to about $23O,0O0 per annum.
Willow baskets, hampers, chairs, etc,
have become staple industrial article,
and the demand for them is enormous;
in fact, it is far greater than the sup
ply. Sawed-wood and split-wood bas-
kets are used largely for shipping
fruits, but these can never take the
place of the strong, light and durable
willow baskets for many other pur-
poses. Up to the present time the will
lowware industry in America has re-
ceived comparatively little attention,
labor being high and the culture Of
osiers not well understood Meanwhile
immense areas along our rivers, on
parts of the seacoast and on some up
lands and prairies not suitable for
other agricultural employment, invite

growing Of willows Tor basket making.
The soil for b6sket willows should be

thoroughly prepared. The situation
ought to be low, level and naturally

Is along the banks Of rivers and brooks

SEASIDE SCALES IN DEMAND.
Why Persons Get Weighed Oftener
on the Coast Than Inland
Slot Machines.

1t has often been remarked as a sub
ject of mystery that scales at seaside
resorts are constantly in demand, and
that whether personally conducted"
like European tour, or regulated au-
tomatically, they have very much moro
patronage than like machines inland.
No explanation of this phenomenon,
the success of the seaside scales, has
ever, probably, been given in print, but
some light has been thrown upon it by
this memorandum. which is printed on
the cards recording what agricultur-
lists call meat weight"
"Get weighed before bath or after,
before meals or after, before big
walk or after, as all those influences
affect persons weight from one to
five pounds. You will also reduce your
weight from one-half to one pound by

inexplicable, of scales at seaside re-

and If, as set forth, the weight may be
reduced from half a pound to pound
"by inhaling more air" the field for
conjecture in the matter of weight is
certainly what may be called an open
one, especially to persons Of imagina-
tive disposition.
It has been observed that persons
newly arrived at the seaside desire
forthwith ITO get weighed" in order,
presumably, to establish basis Of
hygienic computation thereafter.
After brief stay at the seaside it is
necessary to be weighed again in or

tions Of pound the improvement re-
