Pets That Board Out.

In Covent Garden, London, there is a
boarding house for women's pets, run In
combination with a market for supplying
such pets. This is no hotel for Angora
cats and Boston bull terriers, but the col
lection on view affords proof that wo-
mans fancy. in the matter of pets, ranges
over odd fields.
All these Covent Garden boarders are
OF a creeping, crawling, or swimming
sort, lizards, toads. fishes, snakes, and
the owners Of many Of the creatures are
women of London's smartest set.
Lady Contance Mackenzie, states an e.
change, has entrusted her adored boa
constructors TO the boarding house keep
er's care during her absence from town,
and he insists that il is as much as his
life is worth to allow anything TO hap
pen to them, because they are the apple
OF their owners eye. They are only ba-
bies. those two boas, but they are bounc-
ing babies, with an abnormal appetite for
mice. and amiable dispositions that should

Some of the aXolotls are black and are
trifie more devilish If less uncanny than
their white brethren. Persons who have
owned these weird pets say that they are
wonderfully interesting and intelligent.
but they certainly disguise their virtues
under air of stony Indifference to the
general public.
Pet lizards of all sizes and assorted col
ors are boarded at the Covent Garden
house by absent mistresses. The French
lizard is perhaps the most Snowy of the

couraged this industry, and some fine
specimens of handwOrk have come from
within the cloisters The cathedrals, too,

treasured possessions.
In and about Bruges the passing tourist
has ample chance to watch the rougher
laces and torchOns grow beneath the bob
bins, while the women sit in the streets
on summer afternoon, singing or chat
ting over their work. There. on either
side Of those narrow, roughly paved
streets of Bruges the women sit in long
rows in the shade of the tall gables, each
in front of her own doorway. twisting the
bObbins swiftly over the pillows. Bare
ankles peep out above the heavy wooden
sabOts and children run in and out of
the dark dOorways or caper through the
streets with curious stares at the stran-
ger. Or perhaps one comes suddenly upon
some solitary grey-haired worker in neat
white cap sitting beneath a tree at the
side of one of the lazy canals which
wind their sluggish way through
the city-a picture of thorough
contentment. OFF in the distance

when You Break China.

Here is household secret which an
old housekeeper told to a young one.
Many people may know it. but if they
do not, it is worth noting.
For mending your broken china" she
said, take the bit of white that remains
in the egg shell after the egg has been
used, mix it with a little flour, enough to
make a paste, and cement your china to-
gether with it. That will not cost you
a cent, it will not waste an egg, and
unless there is q big break It will be suf-
ficient TO do the repairing
The young housekeeper mended hand
painted pen tray which had been broken,
much to her sorrow, and though it has
been washed number of times since the
egg cement has held the broken pieces to-
gether as well as the older housekeeper
said it would.

astonishingly afrectionate, and even their
present keeper admits that they are
cheerful coed -uatured youngsters There
are other snakes, but none so winning
in their WAYS as the baby boas.
Then the assortment of Italian toads
is large and valuable. No one who has
not known the bliss of possessing an ltal-
ian toad can appreciate their value in 4
home circle. They are exceedingly large
and portentiously dignihed, and they,
too. are most loving and devoted. if the
assertions of the women who own them
are to be credited.
One thing about an Italian toad is in
its favor. The mistress who pins her af-
fection to him will not have her heart

as overtake dogs and cats and Canaries

to the Ground.
Carried Insurance to the Amount
Of $4,000-The Origin
Unknown.

The bottling works Of c. J. Kebar, on
the corner of School and Tenth streets,
were totally destroyed by fire >Wednes-
day night.
About u o'clock employees at the City
Grain & Feed Company's mill noticed a
blaze issuing from the building. The
alarm was given at once, and a volun-
teer crowd from the railroad and mil!
pulled out the hose cart and started TO
fighting the fire. The fire company
also arrived promptly, but the flames
spread with great rapidity, and the en-
tire building was soon enveloped in a
mass of fire, the blaze shooting high in
the air and sending shower of sparks
over the surrounding neighborhood.
Mr.. Kebar was sleeping in the building
at the time the fire broke out, and had
to be awakened.
The building and contents, which
were both the property of Mr.. Kebar,
were totally destroyed. Insurance to
the amount of 81, 900 was carried on the
building, and $4,000 on the fixtures
The origin of the blaze is unknown.
The house occupied by Mr.. j. X. P
Sowell and family, next to the bottling
works, was slightly damaged.
