Saves $4,000.
Boston, in common with other great
Industrial centers, has scores, If not
hundreds, of prosperous workingmen
who by honest toll, Joined to patient,
persevering endeavor in store, work
shop or factory, have saved money suf-
fcient to buy home. And there are
hundreds of just such homes, costing
all the way from $1,000 to $1,000, in
Boston and its immediate suburbs.
George S. Hamilton, for instance, has
managed within the past twenty years
at a moderate income to build not one
but two houses, both of which are now
besides maintaining a wife and family
of four children. How he has done it
Is perhaps best told in his own words:
II was born in Cambridge" said Mr..
Hamilton, land one of the earliest les
sons inculcated in my young mind was
that the road to success in life is for
ever uphill; that if 1 was to succeed at
all and ever amount to anything l must
work for it, and work early and late at
that. am not a rich man now by any
means and l never expect to be, but as
look back upon my experiences don't
think l have much to complain of. l
don't think 1 ever wasted any oppor-
tunities. AS boy left school to help

and father being little better than an
an invalid. My first earnings, as l re-
member it, were 50 or So week, and

all went for home support. Then, as
now, was decidedly a home body. L
was never extravagant and never spent
any of my wages in amusements, such
ments, though 1 often thought that
would dearly love to do so.

year 1881, when l married. The main
thing, if you wish to save money, is to
get the right kind of a wife. My wife
has always been equally, if not even
more, thrifty than 1 am, and together
we have gradually accumulated about
$4,000. That whole sum has come out
of my wages or salary as salesman in
a carpet warehouse. When l married

The Evolution of the Pocket,

The ancient wore a single pouch at
his belt; the modern has-how many
pockets in an ordinary costume for out

the jacket five, in the overcoat five,

little pokes or bags, and arranged so
conveniently that they are scarce no.
ticed. Truly this is an evolution! How
long may it be before we have pockets
in our hatbands-where the Irishman
carries his pipe, the American soldier
his toothbrush, and, internally, the pet.
tifogger his legal papers, the papers
that his predecessors in England thrust
into the typical ''green bag?" How
long before there may be pockets in our
gloves-for there are, l believe, patents
covering this invention-and in our
shoes? The cane also, with its screw
top, begins to be a useful receptacle.
Two centuries from now, so the man
with a long foresight can clearly see,
the main idea underlying the wearing
of clothes will have entirely changed
The chief purpose of garments will no
longer be considered to protect the
body. They will be regarded, first of
all, as textile foundations for innumer-
able pockets.-Woman's Home Com

Four Thousand in a Bunch on Each

account the male is, but we may rea-

Of his intelligence.
The fly has two sorts of eyes, the big
compound one, 1000 in a bunch on
each side of the head, for knocking
about in daylight, and there are simple
eyes on the top of the head for use in
q poor light. sewing and fine print. Be-
fore going into ecstasies of admiration
over the creature that has 1000 eyes on
each side of its head II might be well
to remember that they are not of much
account In case of old flies kept over
winter the compound eyes cave in and
get broken, yet the fly seems to get
along and find food. One kind gentle
man vanished over the simple eyes
and plucked off the wings of some
flies. He found that he might hold a
candle close enough to burn the COM
pound eyes of the fly before it had a
suspicion that anything out of the COM
mon was going on. In daylight he took
knitting needle and brought it up in
front of the fly close enough to touch
his antennae before it lodged. If the
knitting needle was brought up on one
side Mr.. Fly picked up his sticking
plasters quite lively.-Ainslee's Maya

Austria,s Emnernr

The Emperor of Austria is much less
talked of nowadays than the German
Emperor, but he is one of the most no.
ticeable figures in the great panorama
of European royalty. He is often said
to be the richest man in Europe, and
certainly the Hapsburg family is one
of the wealthiest, as well as one o. the
oldest, in the world. In charity he is
muniicent. His majesty is strongly op.
posed to capital punishment. On one
occasion he was called upon to sign a
death warrant, and began signing his
name, but a tear falling on the ink blot
ted the letters, and he turned to the
minister in attendance, saying: "See,
my tears obliterate my name. 1 cannot
sign it," And he tore it up.

EIectropIating the Dead.

DR.. Variot Of Paris has discovered a
process for embalming bodies which it
Is thought will prove a great success.
He not only embalms but metallizes
the bodies by the Ruolt process, just
as it is done with fork or a spoon. In
this manner they can be preserved. in
definitely, and in such perfection that
the most imperceptible wrinkles and
lines are reproduced, and the embalmed
body has the appearance of a metal
statue. The process is as follows:
After a bath in pure carbolic acid, and
being strongly rubbed with nitrate of
silver the body is submerged in a gal
vano-plastic O. bath, after which a
slight layer of nitrite is applied to it

An Accurate Weather Man.

There is a young man about town
who is always prepared for all kinds
of weather, says the Louisville Post
No matter if he attends a function
when the night is cloudless and rain
falls before he gets home, he is al
ways on hand with an umbrella, much
to the delight of the girl with him,
and also to his pocketbook, which
would suffer greatly from the contin-
ued drain of carriage hire.
For a long time his secret remained
undisclosed, and he was looked upon
by some people as a fool for luck, and
by others as a weather prophet who
could give points to the local bureau.
However, it is not longer a secret, for
the reason for his invariably correct
prognostication of nasty weather. He
is a very fair banjoist, and it was no.
ticed that he always played on his in
strument before going out at nights.
When the plaintive sounds were muf-
fed he never neglected to take his UNI
brella, but if on the contrary the sound
was sharp and clear he went out with
the firm conviction that he would have
no need for his ''brelly" before his re-
turn.
When questioned about this, he dis
closed his secret. The head or sound
ing board of a banjo is made of sheep
skin, and in damp weather it expands
and the head becomes loose. In dry
weather it becomes tight as a drum.
This is the reason for his invariable
good luck in picking" the weather, for
he owns a natural barometer.
