WAKES, THEN DIES.
Womnn Who Has Slept Since May Fl
1883, Passes Away Near Saint
Quentin, France.

Marguerite Boyenval, of Thenelles
near Saint Quentin, France. who hac
been in cataleptic state since May
81 1883, was awakened the other day
and died the next morning For
some time she has been suffering
from phthisis, and it is believed that
the effect of this malady on her sys-
tenn conduced to her reawakening.
She mo7cd her hand six days be-
fore her death for the first time and
groaned slightly When Dr. Charlier
took hold of her arm she said: "You
are pinching me-" and subsequently
replied to questions by Eyes" and
"No." She was, however. in a sta''
of great weakness, and gradually
sank, finally dying.
Marguerite Boyenvals lethargy
was caused by fright. She had had
a child, which died shortly after its
birth under circumstances which lea
to the opening of a judicial inTestI'
cation. One day in May, 1883, will"
Marguerite was ironing, "A ne 1hor
said to her: THE gendarmes are
coming to arrest you" Marguerite
had a series of fits and gradually fell
into her long slumber.

Agenius hailing from North Londor
mas oeen struck with brilliant con.
ception for Kidding back gardens and
outhouse roofs of philandering cats.
~ consists of nothing less than the
invention of a fearsome automatfon
tomcat made up of tin frame and
covered with fur coat.

nlsht' with stiff black tail standing
up detlantly in the air, and a gbostly

reused to anger, send forth a light cal
euiated to make even Ulysses tremble.
th4S oaneful glare is produced by a
!our-Nolt electic battery slowed away
III that portion of Toms" anatomy
generally occupied by the digestive
organs.
Inc general principle of construc-
tlon, according to the British inventor.
Is based upon powerful clockwork, re-
leased by lever when the tail of the
animal is moved.
The clock works pair of bellows
with two loud-screeching reeds, at the
some time forming contact to light the
lamps in the eyes, and forcing outward
dozen long needle points, which come
up through the skin of the back. The
taii also acts as trigger, and releases
manner formed of the lower jaw of
the cat, which explodes two percussion
caps in the mouth.
One night an experiment was made,
The clockwork was wound I'D and the
Deast placed in back garden. In due
course ferocious tabby Of loose char
acter and with chips off its ears walked
up to the stranger to give battle, while
a dozen of his lady friends sat around
to see the fun.
In feline language, the tabby appears
TO have asked his lady friends not to
crowd into the ring, and to watch close
'ly while he prepared "Tom" for the un-
dertaker. He began by walking up to
wall and sharpening his claws. Then
he came back wagging all that was left
ol MS tall IN an aggressive and insult
ing manner, and took the measure of
his silent enemy.
Without the slightest provocation he
flew at the automatic cat, removed a
lump of loose hair from his back, and
broke his tail in half.
That ended the first round, but it was
only the signal for the tin tomcat to get
into action. The tail exploded the per-
cussion caps in the cats mouth with a
sound resembling that of a AT; the
electric eyes blazed out like Ladysmith
searchlights, while heart rending
shrieks rent the air from the bellows
inside, and the needle points got their
businss ends into the tabby cat
Within few seconds the garden was
clear, and pale-faced pussies were tear
ing off through the quiet streets in
search of home comforts. 1t was more
than month before they ventured to
peep over the wall to see if the "black
terror" was still in possession.

Party to Explore the Islands and
Make Various Tests and
Experiments.

An expedition organized for sci
entific survey of the Bahama islands
under the auspices of the geo
graphical society of which DR.. Daniel
c. Gilman, of Carnegie institution, is
president, has sailed from Baltimore
on the William II. Van Name, a
schooner chartered for the purpose,
which is well supplied with all the
scientific apparatus and machinery
necessary for the objects Of the voy-
age.
Among the adjuncts taken along is
an 1S-foot gasoline launch, to be util-
lied along the inlets and estuaries of
the islands, and glass bottomed boat.
The latter is large dory, the interior
being painted black and the bottom
covered with two heavy plates of
clear glass, through which objects be-
low the surface may be- observed.
The expedition will erect bench
mark monument, granite shaft five
feet long, at Nassau, to determine
whether the land surface is rising or
falling. Its height will change with
oscillations in the earth's crust.
Several large kites will be used to
carry self-registering apparatus above
the trade winds and into the anti
trades. Magnetic instruments to
measure the dip and the inclination of
the needle at the various stations
throughout the archipelago win be
used.
The medical staff is equipped with
many chests containing medicines.
antiseptic materials, diEinfecting APP
paratus. surgical Instruments and
everything needed for general med
ical research. The diseases of the is
lands will be treated and studied by
DR.. Penrose. Mr.. Coffin will under
take a special study Of the different
mosquitoes along the route Of the
expedition, with special reference to
their capacity for spreading disease by

Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight Hills speaks
Strong Words Against God
OF wealth.

Touching by inference upon the
strides being made by the trusts
Rev. Newell Dwight Hills, speaking
the other night at the installation
services for Rev. DR.. Macy MCGEE
Waters, successor to Rev. DR.. M.
Tomplkins at the Congregational
church, Brooklyn, arraigned the
worship of wealth, which he said
seemed to be supplanting in meas
ure the worship OF God, and predict
ed that within 20 years the fight be-
tween materialism and Christianity
would become an acute struggle
I'm these days." said DR.. Hills 1--WE
see young men going to college to
fit themselves for business and pro-
fessions. The class of young men
who years ago went to enter theo-
logical seminaries now tell you they
intend to become lawyers because
of the greater emoluments to be
gained. Now and then we hear Of q
man stealing railroad and the pub
lie applauds him for his cleverness.
There seems to be q spirit Of revi-
sion in this age. There is even a
new version of the Ten Command
ments, of which the chief seems to
be honor the almighty dollar that
you may have yachts and lands and
a life Of ease and steal everything in
sight"
Referring with biting sarcasm to
the bent of the newly rich to pose
as art connolsseurs, DR.. Hills
said: 1--WE see them buying paint
ings and musty old manuscripts
without being able to tell for the
life of them whether one is the
work of an old master or the other
the genuine production Of an old
classical litterateur."
DR.. Hills remarks caused de-
cided sensation, and the congrega-
ton broke forth in applause. DR..
Hills words were all the more un-
expected because of his stand on the
question of labor unions, which in
recent sermon he held to be forms
of tyranny and dead weight upon
the neck of industrial progress.

HOME MADE CANDIES

Bonbons quite as good as one pays high prices
Tor IN the best confectioners may be made at home
If will take the trouble and follow out the right
recipes. Fondant is the foundation of most vari-
cites The following rule should insure success in
making it:
Put pound of best granulated sugar in
clean smooth saucepan; add half a pint of boil
ing water and stir until the sugar is dissolved then
remove the spoon and be careful that you do not
disturb the syrup while it is boiling or it will
granuate. As it bos little crystals will adhere to
the side of the causepan; these viii also cause the
syrup TO granulate cooling if allowed to fall
back IN the mixture; therefore have a small cloth
and bowl of cold water ready; dip the cloth in
the water and carefully wipe off the crystals as
they form the sides of the pan; also any scum
from colorlng matter IN the sugar which may form
around the edge of the syrup. As the sugar boils
the bubbles will grow larger and heavier in ap-
pearance; 1t Is then time to test it. The best and
surest method is follows Have a bowl of ice
water at hand; hold the fingers in this until they
chilled, then take them quickly from the wa
ter and before they dry dip them into the boiling
syrup, then back into the water and rub the fingers
together, and as soon you can form a soft ball
of the syrup taken up in this way the fondant is
done and must be at removed from the fire
and slowly poured out a marble slab or large
platter thoroughly oiled 10 within few inches of
the edge When the syrup is cool enough to al
low considerable pressure from the finger stir it
rapidly with a wooden paddle dipped first in oil,
until it is white as snow and difficult TO stir;
take up at once while still and lnead
dough until it Is smooth and soft, then lay it
plate busted with powdered sugar or Oiled cover
with damp napkin and set in cool, dry place for
twenty-four hours before using. This be col
ored and Favored in various ways and used Tor
the foundation candy, and melted over boiling
ter Tor dipping adding melted chocolate or cocoa
Tor chocolate creams or coloring pink green, etc.

GOOD ADVICE.

\ few hints on the hygiene of the skin may
prove of service to many of the female sex, the
world of women who make fetish of their COM
pleXions and the women who do not try to make
the best of the natural gifts that nature has be-
slowed upon them
Without entering on the vast subject of the
value of relative washes or tonics for the skin,
wish to give a few hygienic hints which may be
found of service TO those who have the feminine
instinct of wishing to make the best of the beauty
and health that Providence has given them
Sleep is one of the great preservers of Youth
Eight hours of regular sleep at night and short
nap during the day will do much to keep the lace
free from wrinkles. Always sleep with the bed
room window open few inches at the top, both in
summer and winter. A daily bath, tepid in winter
and cold in summer, with brisk rub to follow will
be found to keep the skin fresh and clear.
At least a couple of hours must be spent in the
open air, either in walking, bicycling, or playing
games, as circumstances permit.
All tight clothing. and especially tight lacing,
must be avoided, compression dsturbs the cir
culation and is often the of varicose veins
and red noses
The effect of diet on the skin is of the utmost
Importance, and many dermatologists have made
careful study of this aspect of the question. 40
sention from all rich foods and stimuants has been
tried with success. A celebrated lady who was IA
nous even in her old age for her beautiful, clear
complexion and freedom from wrinkles, was once
persuaded to tell the secret of her youthful looks.
The answer was simple. Abstinence had been the
rule of her life. No tea, coffee, stimuant of any
kind. Instead of taking animal food, try some
boiled fish or couple of eggs every day. Drink
lemonade or water; eat apples grapes and figs regu
larry. Take the raw juice of lemon every other
day.
Never fail to walk several miles per day. Battle
frequently in almost cold water. Above ALL never
let anything have the power to worry you but al
ways try to remain calm and cheerful
This excellent advice, if possible to follow, is
worthy of trial. We can only offer it to our
readers with the assurance that it has proved sue
cessfu and has helped in more than one case to
preserve youth and beauty 1t is needless to add
that this goes long way to create happiness.
