The Monument association, which
looks after the preservation Of Bunker
Hill monument in Charlestown, some
time ago decided to erect a granite lodge
on the monument grounds to take the
place Of the small wooden structure
which for forty-four years has served as
home for valuable ancient statuary and
relics, the property Of the association
Within the near future it is expected
that the old lodge will be removed thirty
feet east of its present location in order
that work upon the excavation for the
handsome new building may be COM
menced. At least six months will be
consumed in cutting the large granite
and marble blocks used in the construc-
ton, and it is not expected that the new
lodge will be ready for occupancy and
dedication before June II Of next year.
The estimated cost Of the lodge is $780,
600. The building will be of the Gre
clan type, with simple features Of orna-
mentation. In it will be placed rare
trophies and mementoes now in the pres
ent lodge, and large collection Of addi-
tional treasures which the association
has never brought over from the city
proper because of no safe place in which

Oil OF Tobacco.

Some interesting investigations have
just been published by the analysts of
the government laboratory with respect
to what is known as the ''oil of tobacco"
In making up raw tobacco leaf into the
article with which we fill our pipes manu-
facturers use olive oil, and at one time
they made a use Of it which, like Sam
Weller's knowledge of London, was ex-
tensive and peculiar. In order to protect
the smoker paternal legislature has
enacted that not more than i per cent.
OF olive oil shall be used by manufac-
turers for making up or ''favoring,"
and the businesslike manufacturer has
sometimes complained that this 4 per
cent. is not sufficient allowance, be-
cause the tobacco leaf itself supplies an
oil which might be mistaken for the man
ufacturins product. The government an
alysts have, therefore, experimental
with forty-six tobaccos, and they find
that the essential oil of tobacco usually
exists only in the smallest Of quantities,
sometimes not more than :05 per cent.

The Secret of Beauty.

Here is another "secret of beauty"
OF course. every woman wants to be
beautiful, and, according to Miss Silvia
Alfonso, the Cuban beauty, every wom-
an can be beauty. NO, l use moth
ing to make me beautiful. except the gifts
that nature bestows upon every woman,
no matter bow plain she may be.
merely try. by being kind, affectionate
and entertaining to my fellow creatures,
to make myself beautiful. That is the
whole secret. There are thousands Of
women in Cuba who are much more beau
tiful than l am. But they disfgure
themselves first by their surly and ugly
dispositions, second by becoming conceit-
ed and imagining that they are beautiful,
and third by using artificial means to
improve. as they imagine, their looks.
Any woman can become beautiful, no
matter what her features may be like.
If she So desires. You know the old say
ing that beauty is as beauty does That
is the rule that l have always followed. !"

planned was highly ingenious. The ten
ants of one Of the fats were at the sea-
side. On Sunday evening two men
stopped in front of the house with
handcart and brought I'D large Breton
cupboard, which they said had been or
dered by the tenant. The concierge told
them they had better come again, as the
people were away. The porters said
they were not going to take back heavy
piece of furniture to the other end Of
Paris, and the concierge, though very un-
willingly, allowed them to carry the cup
board upstairs. "Nmeo Danaos ct dona

1t would be difficult to say whether
Stockholm or Budapest possesses the

strument, and the system is so extensive
that conversation is not only possible but
easy over radius of about fifty miles
around the city.
Budapest, in addition to being excel
lently served with ordinary telephones,
possesses a unique system, the Telefon
Hirmondo, which practically performs
the function of a newspaper. News is re-
cciyed at all hours of the day in the CEN
trail office, and, after being edited and

Cattle raisers and provision dealers, as

deeply interested in exhaustive tests just
begun in New York to prove or disprove
DR.. koch's declaration that human and
bovine tuberculosis are not intercommu-
nicable. A large amount of money is
now spent annually in testing cattle with
tuberculin, and hundreds Of cattle which
show the symptomatic reaction are de-
stroyed. If DR.. Koch is right this is
all waste, and should be stopped. On
the other hand, if DR.. Koch's finding is
overthrown, the system of testing cattle
with tuberculn should be made more rig

and the other "Constitution." and each
has the following additional inscription:

committed, showing a reduction Of 1898
on the number of committals in 1899.
The decrease in the number of convicts
during the half century has been very re-
markable. In 1855 the total was 1927,
and last year the number was only 800.
The decrease is due, says the report, not
