LII Hung Chang.s "souvenirv

When Ii Hung Chang was in Paris,
he went to visit the Credit Lyonnais
and showed lively interest in its halls,
its stairs. its safes and the room where
the bonds of the last city of Paris loan
are kept. He was first shown bonds
of 800 francs and 1000 francs and then
of 5000 francs. Taking them in his
hands, he scrutinized them. exclaiming
frequently, "Joli, JOLT" Then he finally
thrust them in his pocket, saying,
Souvenir de Paris" The governor of
the Credit Lyonnais went to the min
lister of foreign affairs with list of the
bonds and asked what he was to do.
1t was agreed that it would not do to
ask Ii to give them up. and the foreign
office refunded his souvenir de Parish!

Africans Wash. but Never Wine.

Great attention is given in most Of
the African tribes to the care of the
body. The teeth are cleansed with
a stick which has been chewed into
a kind of brush. The hands are
washed frequently, not by turning and
twisting and rubbing them together
one within the other, as with us, but
by q straight up and down rubbing,
such as is given to the other limbs.
This manner of washing is so charac-
teristic that an African might be dis
tinguished by it from a European with
out reference to the color. The sun is
their only towel.

FOR A GARDEN PARTY.
Dainty FouIard Gown Which
Would Be Most Suitable.

Would Be Most Suitable.
At last the warm weather has come,
which is, of course, the signal for wear
ing dainty and summary garments.
Sheer mulls. soft and lovely silks,
grapes and veilings and no end of other
thin and diaphanous stuffs are seen,
not upon the shelves of stores, nor yet
in the windows, but right where they
belong-on the beautiful women.
Flounces are part and parcel Of all
the French dresses of late CONNECTION,
and it seems that the French modistes
are trying to make us take, whether we
like them or not, the Eugene styles. On
the other hand, the Berlin and English
ones are equally anxious to bring the
first empire styles back again. 1t re-
mains to be seen what our women will
choose out of this curious rivalry. The
empire gowns seem to me to be very
trying to most figures. and on the other
hand the Eugene styles are undeniably

Edible BIRDS Nests.

The nests are nearly semicircular in
shape, very small and not in the least
like those of our own swifts. for they are
made from the saliva of the birds. and
have the appearance when fresh of the
finest iSinglass. When they have been
used, they become almost black and are
of very little value, as it is difficult to
clean and bleach them. The natural gal
leries in which they are found are often
of great length and probably extend be-
meath the waters Of the lake. The nests
are fixed to the walls. as n rule, at such
a height that they must be knocked down
with long poles. The Chinese consume
them in the form Of soup, which. though
exceedingly expensive. appears TO
European palate to be tasteless and
watery. The edible nests are also found
in the Andaman islands and in many
parts Of the Malay neutrality-suspicious.

The Earliest Cigars.

The earliest mention of cigars in
English occurs in book dated 1875.
A Traveller in Spanish America named
Cockburn, whose narrative was pub
nshed in that year, describes how he
met three friars at Nicaragua. who, he
says, gave us some seegars to smoke:
these are Leaves of Tobacco
rolled up in such Manner that they
serve both for Pipe and Tobacco it,

One of the most amusing answers that
have ever been given by a candidate for
naturalization papers occurred in Phila
aelphia. He was a burly German and
had replied to all the questions put to
him correctly and with great intelli-

which he labored from his imperfect
knowledge Of the English tongue. He
had defined with a fair amount of accu-

dent do with the bills sent to him."

Hardwood Floors.

Floors that have been finished in
shellac should be kept clean, says The
National Builder, by thoroughly brush
ing off the dust with a soft hair or
feather brush or by wiping with a
cloth of soft texture. If the cloth is
slightly moist, the dust will adhere to
it more readily, but wipe with a dry
cloth afterward. If any dirt that will
not wipe off with moist cloth should
be deposited on the floor, wash it off
thoroughly with clean mot hot water,
using soap If necessary, which also
cleanse off with water as quickly as
possible and wipe dry.
When the face of the floor begins to
look worn and shabby, after cleansing
off the dirt and wiping dry. If water
has been used, rub the surface all over
nicely with mixture two-thirds tur-
pentine and one-third raw linseed oil.
To do this saturate soft cloth of any
kind with the mixture, wiring 1t out
half dry and rub the floor with it even
ly. Do not use the oil so freely as to
leave it standing on the surface to
catch dust. To prevent this wipe off
with clean, dry cloth. After the shell
lac is worn down to the surface of the
wood sandpaper it all over evenly with
No. sandpaper and give it another
coat of shellac, after which continue to
keep as before.
Floors finished in plain oil only
should be kept in the same manner as
above, more soap and water being re-
quired and more frequent rubbing with
the mixture of turpentine and linseed
oil spoken of above.
Waxed floors can be cleansed by
washing off thoroughly with turpen.
tine and benzine, after which they can
be rewaxed If desired.

Dowie will consent to give newspaper

Ma sfield Woman Gives It as
One of the Grounds for
Divorce.

Mansfield, o., Jan. 4.-Lillie A.
Stake, of near Butler, this county, has
filed petition for divorce from Frank
Stake on the grounds of cruelty and
tendencies toward witchcraft. She
says that on December 5, last year, her
husband became so abusive that she
was forced to seek shelter at the home
of her parents in the middle of the
night, and that on subsequent occa-
sions, Stake prowled around the house
in the night making peculiar noises,
trying to frighten his wife away from
their home. Alimony is asked for.
The couple were married last August.
