Artificial Stone.

Quarrymen and stone dressers will
probably be gradually crowded out Of
their occupation by the use Of artificial
stone. In the manufacture Of this stone
the sand is heated and the cement add
ed to the amount Of II per cent Of the
mixture. The steel molds are filled
with the dry material and moved into
an immense cylinder. which Is closed
and bolted. Boiling water Is then
turned in under pressure sufficient to
force it all through the sand in the
molds. The cement Stacks. but the
steel molds do not permit any expan-
sion to occur, and the stone Is formed
and dried under an immense pressure.
The result is very hard stone, which
can be supplied In shapes desired and
much cheaper than the natural stone.

Gambling.

The writer once spent a Saturday
afternoon in the study of a dignitary Of
the church while the ecclesiastic strug-
gled in vain to frame an argument
against gambling to be presented to the
congregation on the morrow. He aban-
doned the attempt. Far be 1t from q
literary journal to assert powers the
possession of which the professionally
religious are fain to disclaim. yet with
submission we even venture to believe
that at least one cogent and effective
argument lies against all forms Of gam
bling-one. namely. based on the truth
that wealth, great or small Is a trust
and therefore may not be put in risk.
The moralist may declare that the
gambler gets. or at least wants to get,
something for nothing. Men will laugh.
They know better. The winner gave
his chance to lose for his winnings.
For his losses the winner got his
chance to win. But ask the Spectator
whether he would gamble with trust
funds held by him for orphans and
then suggest to him the one great truth
that is Selling hold of mems conscience,
the most hopeful sign in these perplex-
ed days Of social unrest, that men are
trustees Of all that they call their own.

Sliced cucumbers. with plain French

With a boiled fish the potatoes are

melted butter and chopped parsley.
Never use the fingers to separate the
bones from the eatable portion Of fish.
The bones must be evaded with such

Stones do not fern part of the rec
osnZed diet OF the cormorant, but one
of these birds in the National Zoolog-
ical park in Washington had a craving
which could be satisfied only by eat
ing two pounds of stones. The keep
er's attention was attracted to the bird
because after having once sat down
it couldn't get up. He was picked up,
and then the stones were heard rafting
inside of him. An official connected
with the park decided that something
must be DONE and he promptly cut the
cormorant open and relieved him of his
burden. One of the stones, of irregular
shape, was 81 inches long. The in
cision was sewed up, and for five days
the bird got along all right, the wound
healing finely. but at the end of that
time the cormorant grew FESTIVE and
pulled out the stitches with his hooked
bill. AS consequence of opening up
the wound he died.

Figs.

After figs have been collected they
are dipped in boiling brine and then
dried Oh trays for from two to four
days, according to the weather. The
dipping is supposed to bring the sugar
to the surface and hasten the drying.
After being dried the figs are placed
in sweat boxes" holding 1000 pounds
each. where they remain for two weeks.
Then they are washed in cold salt wa
ter to remove all dirt and are packed
by women and girls in half pound, one
pound and ten pound boxes in layerb,
being split prelimlnarlly with short
bladcd knife.

TALK OF MARRIAGE.
1t IL Proper For the Man, but Not
For the Girl, Apparently.

a man may remark on his intention
to marry at some indefinite future time.
when prudence or other considerations
may make it possible or advisable,
without having. as a rule, to run the
gantlct of ii chorus of impertinent and
stupid would be witty remarks. But
should girl be bold enough, or. rather,
natural and simple enough. to say the
same thing what would be the result?
Why. every one knows that she would
be promptly sneered out Of counte-
nance.
And why? Is 1t immodest for wom-
an to express a determination to enter
into state which we are being contln-
ually reminded is a natural and honor
able state, while it is modest and prop
or for a man TO do so? Such distinc-
ton would never be drawn except for
the "cheapncss' to which reference has
been made.
Ifn man wants to marry. he can mar
ry. If the fist woman he asks refuses
him, he has only to ask q second or per-
haps third or fourth. 1t would be
safe to guarantee that within n month
any man of fairly respectable life and
position and appearance who cared to
make the experiment could marry in
his own class, could marry probably Il
woman much su:jerior to himself.
But what al, It the girl who intends
TO marry some day. Is she not in a
very different position from the man
Here is a girl of good character-much
better than the mans, probaDly-aver-
age intelligence, average good looks.
Theoretically she is free to marry
whom she Will, but is she? If she re-
ccives one distinct offer of marriage,
she has had more than her share, ac-
cording to the probable average.
The fact that by an unwritten law a
woman must not take. and. indeed. does
not want to take. the initiative has very
little to do with the extremely limited
choice which modern conditions impose
upon English women.-Nineteenth Cen

Noncooking Resta urants.

Odd as it may appear to dwellers in
small cities. some Of the down town
restaurants Of New York are In build
ings in which no cooking Is allowed.
Some of the busiest Of the midday res
taurants purchase all their meats and
stews already cooked and merely heat
them through again before serving
them to patrons. This branch Of the
restaurant business has reached such
proportions that the mere operation Of
cooking for such places has become an
established business, and owners of
ovens thrive at it.-New York Sun.
