 Bnt His Five Girls Married Titles. All
 the Same.
 It was evident that he was not only pretty we'll satisfied with himself, bus that he didn't care who knew 1t.
 "Fiye daughters, J he said 'and ev- cry one of them married to title. That's a pretty good record for man who wouldn' t be considered rich enough to buy more than one high grade title
 "I don't see how you did 1t, sug gested the man who knew nothing ex- cept that the husband with title was ordinarily quoted at pretty stln isufe;
 "Oh, it's easy when you know how replied the self satisfied man. 50 Tar as am concerned I would have prefer red to marry the girls to enterprlsln9 young Americans with no titles, ous their mother insisted upon getting them something more fashionable, and when their mother insists have to hump myself and see that things come the way she wants them. confess 1t was something of a problem at first but when I got it figured out i'll my mind and began playing the cards It was so easy that I was inclined to be ashamed of myself for not trying something harder J
 The self satisfied man stopped long enough for the listener to suggest that he would be glad to hear the story, and then, in view of the fact that they were all married and publicity could do no harm, he told it.
 T took all my available assets, /" he explained, ''and made them dowry for my eldest daughter. Naturally there was a rush for her, and she was able to take her pick of five. rushed matters as much as possible, got her married, gave up the dowry had promised, and then steered her titled husband against the Stock Exchange, where 1 gave him some bad tips took his trades myself through a broker and won back all the dowry and part of his ancestral estates. Then gave the dowry to my second daughter, got her married and played the same game with her husband. worked the scheme right through the family, until I finally married my youngest to baronet yesterday. got them to postpone their wedding trip for a few days, so as to give me a chance to win back the dowry before they had spent any of it, and by day after tomor- row expect to be on Easy street again, without a care in the world. If girls must have titles, why, am in favor of giving them to them, but don't believe in contributing large fortunes to the support of the tottering monarehies ot the old world, and, what's more, don't intend to do it.

Tennyson and Birds.

Agnes Weld, niece of Tennyson, speaks thus of the poet in The Contem- porary Review: Much as Tennyson no ticed every individual tree and plant, bird life had still greater attraction for him. He was much touched by the fact that the caged hnnet loses the red pIumage from it's head and breast at che first mott after it's captivity, and never regains them, and he thought of devoting a whole poem to the deep yearning for liberty of which this was che sign and type. And one reason he climbed almost daily, when at Fresh water, to the summit of the Beacon down was because he leyed to watch the wild, free flight of the sea gulls cir cling around it's lofty cliffs"

AIetaIlized Wood.

The following process, invented by Mir. Rubennick, for metallizing wood, Is thus described by Les Mondes: "The wood is first immersed for three or four days, according to its permeability, ill a caustic alkaline lye (ealcareous soda. at temperature of from 75 to 90 de-. grees. Thence it passes immediately Into bath of hydrosulphite of calcium, 10 which is added, after 24 or 36 hours, q concentrated solution of sulphur in caustic potash, The duration of this bath is about 48 hours, and it's tempera. ture is from 35 to 30 degrees. Finally the wood Is immersed for 30 or 50 hours in hot solution (35 to 50 degrees) of acetate of lead. The process, as may be seen, is q long one, but the results are surprising. The wood thus prepared, after having undergone q proper drying at moderate temperature, acquires un- der burnisher of hard wood polished surface and assumes a very brilliant metallic luster This luster is still fur, 6her increased if the surface of the wood be first rubbed with piece of lead, tin or zinc and be afterward polished with a glass or porcelain burnisher. The wood thus assumes the appearance of a true metallic mirror and is very solid and resistant. Invention.

A MORNING GLORY CULT.
This Flower Taking the Place of Ghrys.
 anthemums In Japan.

Miss Eliza Ruhamah Soidmore has an article on tThe Wonderful Morning Glories of Japan'' in The Century Miss Scidmore says:
 As floral sensation the chrysan5h mum may be said to have had it's day. the carnation is going, going, and seek CTS after novelty among flower faneiers are signing for new flower to conquer It is hardly known, even to foreign res- idents in Japan, that that land, which has given us so much of art and beauty, has lately revived the culture of it's most remarkable flower, the asagao, our morning glory. For size, beauty, range uf color and illimitable variety there attained this suG1.. se flower precedes all others until it's cultivation has become craze, which is likely to spread to other countries, and-who knows-per- haps there introduce the current Jap- anese custom of o'clock in the morn- ing teas and garden parties.
 Asagao, the morning flower, is more especially Japan's own blossom than the ohrysanthemum, which like it, came from China as primitive sort of weed, afterward to be evolved by Jap- anese art or magic into floral wonder of hundred varying forms.
 We who know and grow the nsN4n- ing glory as humble back yart, vine on string-a vine with leaves like those of the sweet potato and puny little pink or purple fowers-are az far in the floral darkness as the Chinese, who know it chiefly as wild thing of fields and hedge raws, the vine of "the little trumpets'' or the dawn flower, that Is entangled with briers and bushes for miles along the top of Peking's walls. The old poetry and the old art do not seem to be permeated with it, as in Japan, where the forms of vases, bowls and cups, the designs and paintings of the greatest masters, repeat the graceful lines of vine and flower, and scores of famous poems celebrate the asagao in written characters as beautiful to the eye as is their sound to the ear.
 The asagao was brought to Japan with the Buddhist religion, that partio. olar cult of early rising, Scholars and priests who went over to study the new religion brought back the seeds of many Chinese plants The tea plant came then, and Eisai brought the seeds of the sacred bo tree, and Tai Kwan, the Chi nese priest at the Obaku temple ill Uji, who may have introduced the flower to Japan, was one af the first to sing of the asagao in graceful outas, classic poems which scholarly brushes repeat today. "Asagaos bloom and fade so quickly, only to prepare for the mor- row glory, is Tai Kwan's best known verse.

Once when the late Jay Gould went to Margaretville, N. r., with his phy- sician and private car, he called on his old friend George Decker, a retired merchant of the village, who was for nerly clerk with Gould in Roxbury. Every one who knows Mr. Decker well calls him .sGs, , and this was what Mr. Gould said to him:
 Hello, .Gl' guess you know me this time, don't you?"
 A few years before Decker, while in New York on business one afternoon, was suddenly confronted on Broadway by dapper, black eyed little man, who grasped him by the hand, exclaiming How are you, MT. Decker? I am glad Co see you. ,
 Mr. Decker looked the little man over from head to foot, and hurriedly an swered:
 ''Yes. so am I, but don't know you, sir. Good day. ''
 But, hold up," said the other. +'aren't you George Decker of Margaret ville?"
 "Oh, yes; that's all right, !" respond ed Decker, but am in too great 8 hurry to be interviewed today, my friend. You have struck the wrong man. :"
 "Yes, perhaps, ; said the little man. s'but my name is Jay Gould. Don't you know me?''
