a mere nothing to the huge quantity
used in gliding picture frames. painting
signs, binding books, designing on fur

tire stock Of gold is about LOO tons,
but Of this only 1870 exists in the form
Of coin.
This stock Is increasing by about
three and half tons year. Four tons

and gilders use up every year. and none
Of this vast amount Is recoverable
France Is the largest consumer Of gold
for the arts. She uses 5000 pounds a

rbe Teacher OF Paderewski.

The chief attraction at Vienna has
been Professor Leschetitzky, the teach
er Of Paderewski, and perhaps the best
known of all teachers Of piano. He Is
moody and impatient. but is a prince
Of good fellows to the pupil who shows
talent or excessive industry. He has
taught most Of the great American
pianists.
I visited Professor Leschetitzky at
his summer house at Ischl. and during
our conversation he made the follow
ing statements in regard to American
music students which are well worth
their attention:
They ought not come to us unless
they are musical and know music"
TOO many of them don't know how
to touch the piano. and have neither
the time nor the patience to teach the
scales"
"A talented man or woman ought by
all means to come over here. II only
to see how little he or she knows about
music"
Your young people lack depth and
industry. They are very enthusiastic
at first, but most Of them drop on when
the hard work begins.

During the past ten years no less
than 1888 specialties have been pro,
vided. and as the average keith Dill
costs $1,000, the Napoleon OF the con-
tinuous performance has expended W.

ting the public to enjoy the varied Dill
for prices ranging from Is to SO cents.
Agents throughout America, England.
Ireland, Scotland. France, Germany.
South Africa, etc. are constantly IN
quest of novelties for the Keith quad
ruple circuit of theatres. and one Is
tainers of the world-a $4,000 aggrega-
tion-for Is. % or so cents.
There have been five seasons of op-
era, the company having enjoyed

The wise selection of lieutenants was
never more sharply exemplified than
F. Albee. the versatile and brainy
young man. for his general manager.
Mr. Albee is a native of Maine. and
from his boyhood he has been what is
known in the professional vernacular
as a Snowman" That is to say. he
began his career at the very bottom
of the ladder, taking all sorts of ex-
periences with every round.
Under his direction the local theatre
was finished and decorated. After hav-
ing managed it for five years, securing
a clientele equal to any other two
Philadelphia theatres combined, he
went to Mr. Keiths New York house.
which is now the headquarters of the
Keith quadruple circuit of theatres.

sort Of leather paper on board. which is
made from waste cuttings Of skins into
small bits, and then immersing them in
a large vat containing an alkaline solu-
tion, which dissolves the glutinous
matter. but leaves the fibers unaltered.
The resultant fiber is then beaten and
afterward pressed through refiner.
The stuff Is run onto the wire and n
very thin paper is made. which Ii cut

piles and subjected to pressure to
squeeze the water out.

when he must ask II he may.
IntrOductions are rarely made in pub

A man precedes a woman when en-
tering a theater or public place. In a
church the lady goes first. He may
precede her up public staircase, but
in a private house in ascending and
descending, he follows.
In picture-galleries, elevators, in pub
