London shopkeepers' slang is dia-
lect in itself and one that is always
changing. What, then, is ''nicknack-
itorian" We know not the word to-
day, but, looking recently through
some old law cases dating about a
hundred years back, was puzzled to
find it applied in all good faith to
describe a plaintiff in the sheriff S
court. On further search it turned out
to be a piece of forgotten cockney
slang for dealer in bric-a-brac.
The evidence showed that this plain
tiff kept sort of old curiosity shop,

Doubtful Praise.

Mr.. FaXon was the oldest patron of
the select boarding house in which
he lived, and his landlady sometimes
referred people to him for recon-
mendation of her table.
His wish was to praise the food
highly. as he could conscientiously do,
but one day he overstepped his mark.

had gone to Mr.. FaXon to make in
quiries about the boarding house,

Private Gambling In Russia.

There is a good deal of gambling in
society in England, but it is nothing to
what goes on in Russia, says the Lon
don Candid Friend Vint, preference
and roulette are the principal games.
The second is the most popular in army
circles, while many ladies of the high
est rank keep roulette tables and have
regular evenings" OH which play goes
on for very high stakes. AS is usually
the case at roulette, the bank mostly
wins, and the hostess takes good care
to keep the bank.
One of the most notorious of these
private dens is run by two ladies of
the highest rank and connections. Only
the fine fieur of the society of st. Pc
tersburg are admitted, and the entree
is eagerly sought. The stakes are high,
the plunging often desperate, and men
have been known to leave these salons
in a financial condition which ap-
proaches ruin. The princesses, howev-
er, make handsome income out of the
bank, and no one thinks the worse of
them

While it is commonly believed that
polygamy is stamped out in this
country, that fact should not lead the

trary is the case In the last ten
years according to a late census re-
port, the number of Mormons in this
country has more than doubled some
thing that can not be said of any of
the orthodox churches of the land.
N 1890, the total number of Mormons
in the United States was 144, 900. The
census of 1900 shows that in that
year they had increased to more than
800 900. In Utah there were 1000

and other states in close proximity to
the Salt Lake colony.
In speaking of six years work
among the Mormons of Utah, Rev.
John D. Nutting, secretary of the
Utah Gospel mission, says that the
Mormon system is stronger today
| than ever before, both IN numbers
and in it's hold upon its aoherents,
and it is more homogeneous and uni

J where in Utah he found evidences OF
great activity and increasing vigor in
the church.
Surprising as it may seem, the
Mormon strength is not waning III
the localities where the early colo
MES were planted, and it is quietly
spreading out and securing converts
in nearly every state and territory in
the Union. It's missionaries have

How High Cam a Balloon Riser

The altitude that may be attained
by balloon depends, first, upon it's
size; secondly, upon the filling of gas,
and, thirdly, upon the weight being
carried. A balloon of ordinary size,
$4,000 cubic feet, carrying the smallest
weight--that is, one person-when filed
with Illuminating gas may reach 10000
feet, but when filed with hydrogen
$1,000 feet. In order to ascend higher
we first of all need bigger balloon.
One may say it was a happy chance
that the Royal Meteorological institute
of Berlin was provided with a balloon
Of the unusual dimensions of 100000
cubic feet. The German emperor fur
nished $500 for making experiments
with it, and the Meteorological &lsti-
tute decided to make use of this OPP
portunity for studying the highest re-
gions of mosphere.-Harper's Maya

Eight little wolf dogs all healthy

nook. Mr.. Ross pred wolf to a bull
terrier. and while violent cross, the
animals are all we'll formed, but dis
play to a marked degree the traits of
the father. The pups are brown
black in color and are covered with
the hair of the dog, but under this is
a fine fur inherited from the mother.
They are yet too young to determine
accurately their character, but it is
certain that they will have a snap
pish disposition, as the wolf blood is
most potent IN them, and is explained
bv the fact that the wolf is the pur'

A Bad WAY to Feed Birds.

1t is quite common practice for per-
sons owning pet birds to teach them to
take bits of sugar or other food liked
by the bird from the lips. 1t has been
discovered that the trainers of young
birds in Europe frequently contract in
this way peculiar parasitic growth on
the throat and lungs that is frequently
fatal. and a warning has been issued
by French physicians which may well
be needed by any one feeding birds
from mouth to beak.
