A man came to St. Louis from Texas
not long ago to see the sights. He had
with him nearly four thousand dollars,
among which were three one thousand
dollar notes Having no friends In the
city. and being fearful OF banks. he hid
these big bills very securely, as he
thought. by pastIng them on the inside
Of his shirt bosom. After carousing for
about . week he took his undergar-
ments TO a laundry, and three days
later discovered at the same time that
the bills were still on the shirt. and
that he had forgotten where the laun-
dry was In his despair he left the
city and returned to st. Louis, and
when he took his clothes to laundry
the proprietor recognized him and said:
II have something here that belongs
to you" When the careless fellow saw
his thousand-dollar bills again he al
most tainted from Joy. Now he keeps
his surplus wealth In bank.

Bradetreet's review OF trade says:
General distribution Of trade is oi
fairly good volume. although affected
by weather conditions and holidays,
Spring business 10 enlarging at many
markets East and West. the presence
Of buyers being encouraged by special
passenger rates. A softening Of prices
Of speculatively dealing staples Is 10 be
noted, but the reactions are Of narrow
extent.
Foreign demand for wheat remains
small, American stocks are large, and
farmers are reported holding supplies
back, and crop-damage scares are dis
counted by mild weather. The
strength OF corn has been feature. for.
eign demand being Of good proportions,
and this has furnished a supporting
element in the wheat market.
There is larger volume OF business
in pig iron at some markets. but less
at others, and prices OF that product
are quite steady.
Structural iron continues active, In.
dicating heavy building operations the
coming spring and summer. Foreign
iron markets retain all their old
strength, and lower ocean freight
would, it is argued, bring about a
great enlargement OF our export trade.
Copper is quieter. but steady in price
and tin notes further advance in SYM
pathy with foreign speculation. Hard
ware is improving in distribution at
the West.

ber 1853, as compared with l99 week

cAMgo CARVING.


Brief Description OF the Iooka ana the
Method Empioyed.
All the tools used hy the cameo
carver would make but handful. The
worker sits before q wheel turned by a
pedal; tools occupy small corner OF
the table surface on which the work.
er's hands rest while he holds the
shaped stone or shell beneath the
needle-like drill The little pointed In
struments which are used to drill re-
semble those employed by dentist.
and. indeed. II was from the cameo
carver's kit that the dentists got many
OF their ideas when the tools now Ia
use by them came to be manufactured,
thirty years ago. The drills vary In
thickness according to tho portion OF
the figure or design to be executed:
some are as iine as the point of a cam
brio needle. A small china receptacle
also stands near, filled with oil aud dla-
niond dust. and into this the workman
frequently dips his tool during the
progress OF his work. The cameo cut
ter's occupation Is very exacting, He
can put In only few hours work at
a time as usual thing. because OF the
tension on his nerves. A Quavcring
hand may be responsible for the single
stroke which will spoil a weeks work.
He must have an eye almost like a
microscope. and very delicate touch;
he must be an artist In soul and as
skilled craftsman as Is watch
maker; he must know how to model
and draw. and he must have knowl.
edge Of chemistry. so as to remove
offending spots The work Is executed
In relief on many kinds OF hard or
precious stones. but essentially the
chalcedonic variety OF quartz, and on
shells. The cameo cutter himself pre-
fers onyx because OF Its dark aud light
layers. which throw out In bold relief
white head. say. against black
background. He evolves his picture by
removing all that portion OF the white
stratum remaining after the head has
been completed. Sapphire blocks are
used. carnellan, turquoise. amethyst
and numerous other stones. II takes
about one month to execute a portrait
on onyx, while much less time Is con
sumed II the work IL done on shell
There is always great danger OF the
latter breaking; and Its durability, too
Is not great. so that shell, as rule. Il
not as desirable as the harder materials
A portrait on onyx will cost $500, while
one In shell may be had for $50. The
inquiries for these are rare. aud build
ing up patronage is slow. and Is ac'
complished mainly by satisfied custom
ers influencing others.-Ncw York

1t is very interesting 10 know what
colors are used or selected by the royal
families as being their very own. To
England, the only royal family of
modern times, which has selected it,
belongs scarlet, which is very effective.
The royal houses Of Portugal, Prussia
Sweden and some of the German
princes wear blue. Russia chooses
dark green and Austria delights in black
and yellow. Most people imagine
scarlet was selected on account Of the
red rose Of the Plantagenet. but this il
not true. II was adopted from the field

why People Are Rlghthanded

A professor who has made a study of
children says he has discovered why
the majority of people are rlght-handed.
Infants use both hands until they begin
to speak. The motor speech function
controls the right side OF the body and
the first right-handed motions, tending
to help out speech. AS speech grows SO
