The Abbey Cat.

Westminster Abbey possesses an ec-
clesiastical cat, which-it is to be pre-
sumed, in the absence of authority to
the contrary-catches the ecclesiastical
mice, meager diet, indeed, if the adj
age respecting the church mouse be
trustworthy. The cIoisters are his fa-
yorite haunts, but he occasionally
makes sort of appearance in public
life by taking promenade in the abb
bey yard adjoining Victoria street. 1t
would not be an exaggeration to say
that his mien is deanlike, though with
al affable to all who offer tokens OF
respect--caresses or the like in prop
er spirit. He may be said to be"known
to the police" but only in favorable
sense, and in case of maltreatment the
strong-blue-coated-arm of the law
would assuredly be stretched out for
his protection Gazette.

Tic Demand Tor Horses.

This country in 1897 exported 80,
$50 horses and 7473 mules, the total
value of which was S., 314, 900, making
rather important item of foreign
trade. The exports of horses have
increased over fTefoid since 1898.
There were never as many as 5000
sent abroad prior to that year. The
increase is due to tho decline in the
value of horses in this country result
ing from their displacement by cables
and electricity on street car lines, and
the general depression in the country.
There is, undoubtedly, surplus of
horses in the United States and prob
ably this will continue, SO that ex-
ports are likely to go on increasing.
The agricultural department is doing
all it can to open foreign markets for
American horses. There is no doubt
that horses can be raised in this coun-
try as cheaply as anywhere else in the
world, and every country which needs
to import horses ought to get its chief
supply from the United States. The
average farm value of horses is barely
half what it was five years ago. 1t is
rather strange that prices of horses
have not advanced in the past six
months, especially in Kansas, where
there certainly is a greater demand
for them, and less disposition among
farmers to sell them. Tho increased
profits of farming ought to have the
effect of greatly reducing the number
of horses for ale.-Kansas City Star.

A New J.ife-Bc1t.

Swimmers are generally very suspic-
ious with regard to life-belts, for un-
less these contrivances are we'll made
and properly adjusted they are posi-
lively dangerous in use. Some are SO
bulky that they impede NIL action.
This defect certainly applies to the
cork waistcoats adopted by the Ma
tional Lifeboat Institution, and it will
be remembered that in the recent fatal
capsizing of o lifeboat at Margato the
men had not donned their corks on
this very ground. Anew kind of belt
known as the Louiton floats de-
scribed and illustrated in French
journal; and it has the appearance of
a conger es' with conical ends. Made
of sheet rubber, it passes round the
neck, across the chest and round the
waist, and can be inflated in one min
ate by the mouth; and its weight is
about one pound. The life-belt or
float is flexible, light and easily placed
- position. 1t can be worn without
convenience, and is designed, among
other purposes, for the use of swim
ming schools. s.-Chambers's Journal.

sidered Cresus, and her husband
esteems her so much that he never
dreams OF beating her. The money
is always paid to her husband, and. he
invariably appropriates it.
They are very womanly, these
weayers. OF gossip they are fond,
and while they are at work their
tongues ars constantly going. Perhaps
this is one reason why they have so
obstinately refused to herd together in
factories, where the constant whirr Of
machinery, not to speak of the sur
veillance Of a foreman. would very
probably compel them to keep silent.
In order to fashion frst-class carpet
or piece of tapestry, the weaver must
not only have O memory which will
prevent her from making the slightest
mistakes while copying the design,
but she must also possess lively
imagination and thoroughly
developed artistic sense. For the
frst-class weaver does not copy, she
creates. She invents her own de-,
signs, she combines the various tones,
she chooses the dyes and the shades,
and, finally, she obtains those effects
which seem so charming to US of the
west, and with good reason.-London

Tho Alpi-s Goodnight.

Among the l@F mountains and ele-
yated valleys Of Pwitzerland the AL
pine he n has knother use besides
That of sounding the far-famed "Ranz
des Vaches," or COW song; and this is
OF very solemn and impressive ma
ture.
When the sun has set in the valley,
and the snowy SUBMITS of the noun
tains CLEAN with golden light, the
herdsman who dwells on the highest
habitable spot takes his horn and pro-
nounces clearly and loudly throug h
it, as through speaking trumpet,
s'Praise the Lord God!" AS soon as
the sounds heard by the neighboring
herdsmen they issue from their huts,.
take their Alpine horns and repeat
the same words. -.
This frequently lasts o quarter OF
m hour, and the call resounds from
all the mountains and rocky cliffs
around. When silence again reigns
the herdsmen kneel and pray. with
uncovered heads. Meantime it has
become quite dark. Good night!'
at last calls the highest herdsmAn
through his horn. The W 'rds re-
sound from nil the mount ms, the
horns of the herdsmen and the cliffs
and the mountaineers then retire to
their dwellings.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

Oriental Women weavers.

The somewhat popular conception
of the oriental woman is rather
erroneous. 1t is that of one who is
destined to a life of utter luxury. Yet
the simple truth is that the large
majority of women in the east work
quite as hard for their daily bread as
do their sisters in the west-aye, even
harder, for, as a rule, married women
in the west are supported by their
husbands, whereas in the east married
women are, as q rule, constrained to
support not only themselves, but also
their husbands and children.
This statement applies especially to
the thousands of women in Turkey,
Persia and other countries of the
orient, who make living as weavers.
The whole civilized world appreciates
their handiwork, for none can match
them in making tapestries, carpets
and other gorgeous products of the
loom. This is the age of machinery,
but no machine has yet been invented
which can do the marvellous work of
these oriental weavers. Yet many of
these women work for pitiful wages. At

Teasles are also grown in England and
France. The American product is

She Had Ampl Q Revenge.

No one but woman could have
conceived SO cruel e vengeance. Yet
she tells of it with positive glee. They
all lived in one of those very exclusive
little squares-hotbeds of gossip
where the houses are every one built
on the same plan and where each man,
woman and child knows the finest de-
tails of the next door neighbor's e1-
istence.
"However she dared do such thing

when that woman returned home our

what charming gown you have on!
But let me think nowhere have l
seen O gown similar to yours? Oh,
YES. I remember-Mrs. Hillis's cook
has just gone around the corner with
one just exactly like it. How strange!
Here she comes now. Up sauntered
Lucinda, twirling a red umbrella.
