METAL REPoUssE WORK.
A Fascinating and Profitable Occupa-
ton for Women

ton for Women.
Among the art crafts women have
little known until within a com
paratively few years, and one of the
latest to attract her is metal repousse
work. It is a fascinating as well as a
profitable occupation The actual
cost of tools and materials is small
and really artistic work is sure to
bring good price.
Brass, copper and silver are the
metals generally used, but zinc, lead
and pewter serve some purposes ad-
mirably, and order work is often
executed in gold. Zinc is usually en-
ployed for the process of learning,
as it is the cheapest and is easily
worked. Pewter and lead are less
desirable, as their softness makes
them difficult to manage.
In one method of executing repousse
work the metal is laid on a board and
the design traced by a fine brush with
an inky preparation for the purpose.
A number of nails of different sizes
are filed to various shapes, and with
these the design is hammered into
the metal Most Of the metals can be
hammered without heating, but the
zinc must De thoroughly heated be-
fore being tackled to the board. A
great deal of effective outline work,
such as flowers and conventionalized
designs, may be done IN this way even
by an amateur, but for more elaborate
and difficult work the pitch, method,
which demands a teacher, is en-
ployed.
The purely practical side of decora-
tive metal work is of constantly in
creasing Importance. In the one item
of door decoration there are finger
plates, hinges, name plates and signs
In most good houses of the present
day the key plate and hinges are made
a prominent part of the door treat
ment, both for entrance and interior.
A skillful designer and worker
frequently can make a desirable ar
rangement with several architects
and high-class builders. Mirror AMI
photograph frames, ornamental
piacques, bellows, boxes and lanterns
are always in demand, and fireplace
porders and tenders often are ordered
A worker who is competent in all
branches can make her studio her
best advertisement. The door can
have handsome hinges and keyplat2,
the overmantel may be surmounted by
an effective frieze, the fireplace sur
rounded by artistic bordering, the
hearth inclosed in a rich fender Be
side the hearth may hang an ornate
bellows, and even the coal shovel may
testify to the owners artistic ability.

Of it is purely theory or romance.
Large plantations, owned and man
aged exclusively by those whose in
terests are to be served by stock sub
scription and large salaries, are
money-making institutions here, as
elsewhere, but the citizen of the
United States who has been persuad-
ed by tempting prospectus to put his
meager savings into one of these trop-
ical agricultural companies stands
very small chance of ever receiving
cent of interest on his money, and
much less of ever securing the return
of the capital invested.
Allowing that all Of those who are
selling land in southern Mexico are
honest and that each and every one
of the propositions they present Il
legitimate, the small investor who
puts his hard-earned money into the
company treasury must surely have
failed to consider what he would do
with 40 or 100 acres, as the case may
be, even provided the company car.
ries out it's promise and brings it into
bearing condition for him. The ease
with which Americans have been
roped into these tropical schemes is
due largely to the hope which seems
to exist in the breast of every man or
woman who annually passes through a
frozen season that some day and some
where place of retirement and ease
may be found where the sun shines
with steady warmth the year round
! and food is to be had for the asking.
1t is not in the local development of
the isthmus, however, that will come
the Importance of the Tehuantepec
railroad. There is already talk of sew
eral direct lines of steamers from
American and European ports to the
eastern terminus of the isthmus rail-
way, and there is no question that
when Pearson G. Son are sufficiently
advanced with their contract they
will possess influence to originate
a new freight and passenger line
which will be far superior to that of
Panama and will present tangible com
petition to the all-rail transcOntinental
haul for heavy freight in the United
States. It can be made the direct
route from western South America to
the United States and Europe, and in
going from New York to San Fran
cisco via the isthmus it is at least six
days shorter than by the Panama rail
road. The building of the Nicaragua
canal will be a great stimulus to all
transcOntinental traffic, and the
Tehuantepec route presents many adj
vantages over any other in reaching
the Pacific end Of the proposed Ameri-
can canal. In the hands of firm such
as is now in control of this railroad
property on the isthmus, wonders can
be accomplished in short time, and
whereas for several years past the TIE
huantepec railroad has possessed lit
the value as a commercial influence, it
may be expected that it will soon be-
come decided factor in making rates
and estimating time of shipments
from Atlantic to oriental lands. With
In the three years and half allowed
by the contract with the Mexican
government, Pearson & Son must put
this railroad upon a tangible working
basis. Hence it may be that Presi.
dent Diaz of Mexico will strive to see
one of the most daring ambitions in
the line Of commercial development
for Mexico fully realized.

proportion Of the days dealings was in

tiny Of the days trasactions will reveal
mat the strength in the market was
largely confined 10 the same stocks The
influence OF that strength on the general
list Was considerable during the early
part nj the day but 1t steadily waned
There were some other isolated upward
movements but these also had little ef-
feet upon the general list 1t was not

last hour Of trading that the selling made
any notable impression on prices At that
time there were sharp breaks all around
which carried the average level Of price,
below last night and the subsequent raj
lies were insignificant the market clos

the professional elements in the market
seemed to join in the speculative move
ment IN ST. Paul and Union Pacific The
specific assertion that Union Pacific had
acquired 25O.noo shares Of St Paul from
long staining insiders were stOutly denied
by st. Paul interests. while Union Pacific
interests refused any confirmation. What
ever may he the origin OF the report or
the nature of the buying OF the two
stocks it is very clear that they were
made use of to cover large speculative
profit taking in other parts Of the list

Though it is a matter of record and
not to be doubted that our national
| emblem was adopted. June II, 1111. it
is not known absolutely when the new
flag was first flung to the breeze or
when fighting was first done beneath
its folds. 1t is a part of the Paul
Jones legend that the eyes of American
fighting men first saw the new flag
| when he hoisted it over the Ranger:
but the Paul Jones legend does not
command the absolute confidence of
historians. Professor Johnston pretty
well convinced himself that the first
appearance of the flag was at the bat
Der II. 1777. The late General Cuilum
was of another opinion. In his story
Of The Struggle for the Hudson he
awarded the distinction so coveted by
Paul Jones and others to Colonel
Gansevoort, the gallant defender of
Fort Stanwix. Having brought his
story GOWN 10 the Dattle or orlSkany,
he wrote: ''St. Legcr still continued
the siege of the fort, where now
august 6. 40 foated for the first
time the American flag just adopted
by Congress. made of alternate stripes
of a soldiers white shirt and a camp
woman's red petticoat, the field being
cut out of an old blue overcoat. Be
meath this were hung the five captured
British standards" But the chief
points are that the flag was adopted:
and that wherever and whenever it
went up it went up to stay. The new
constellation to which the fathers of
the republic referred in their resolu-
ton of June IA, 1111, has grown Won
dcrfully since it appeared above the
horizon. The thirteen stars have be-
come Is and there are yet to be more.

The demand for cents is greater than
the government minis can supply.
Last year, 66,S3S 700 of these little
bronze pieces were coined, greater
number than ever before in a single
year, but the supply does not equal the
demand In 1898 there were coined
IS. 600 900 cents; in 1896, 100000 in
1897, 100000 and in 1898. AZ. 900. 600.
Nobody likes to have many in his
pocket and in most quarters they are
a most unwelcome boom of change.
What becomes of them all?' asks
the Bankers Monthly, and the ques-
ton is hard to answer. Those in circu-
lation are seldom very old or very
worn, but where do they all go to?
With so many millions of them coined
every year the supply is still short.
Perhaps at this particular season of
the year a good part of them are being
saved up against the day when the cir
