is more to be admired than ever before,
since the 63S pieces into which it was
broken have been SO i~ngeniously put
together. Student, artist and traveller,
when visiting the museum. are always
sure to enter the palace of the Crocet-
to, tarrying long in the center of the
gallery, where since 1866 until the time
of the great catastrophe which befell
it in 1900, and which it was feared was
irremediable, stood the celebrated
Francois vase. This rare old speci-
man of art has a remarkable history.
Signor Alesandro Francis found the
vase in October, 1914. 1t was inside a
vault located within an apartment be-
longing to the grand duke of Dolciano.
at Fon te Rotella, near Chiusi. or, to
be strictly accurate, he found only two
thirds of the body of the vase, with
only one of the handles, in the first
place. A year later he came across
some other remarkable pieces among
which was the second handle.
Years afterwards another fragment
came to light, and was handed over as
a gift to the museum in 1866 by Mar
quis Charles Strozzi, when the parts
previously found were put together
and so firmly fixed that the vase re-
NAMED undeteriorated until smashed
into fragments by the blow received
three years ago.-Detroit Free Press.

AVOID R HABIT.
II Destroys Thoroughness, Causes
Worry and Should Be Particular
Iy Avoided by Women.

IL there is one lesson more than an
other that Americans. and especially
American women, need to learn, and at
once. il is to make haste slowly. Hurry
is the most destructive of our national
habits. 1t is the chief u of our ma
tional disease, nervous p~rostration, and
one of the principal allies of the under
taker. Hurry and worry always go to-
gether. In differentiating between
haste and hurry a noted alienist cites
the numerous quick-lunch restaurants
which have sprung up during the last
decade in all American cities. The sign
itself. quick lunch" or "a meal in a
minute" is enough to set n to hurry
ing. The consequence is imperfect
~mastication, dyspepsia and nervous
prostration.
Hurry destroys thoroughness. The
person who hurries cannot have his
heart in his work, says the H~ousekeeper.
Thinking constantly of what is to be
done next, the task Of the present is
sighted by borrowing unnecessarily
from the future. Paradoxical as 1t may
sound, hurry is the subterfuge of the
lazy. A man or woman who is lazy at
heart often hurries to make a pretense
of working and detract attention from
real idleness. Little time is required to
compute the results achieved by the
person who bustles breathlessly about
with nerves u%nstrung and putting every
one within hearing in the same condi-

NEW LAMP FOR MINERS.
1t Is Provided with . Gas Detecting
Attachment, Placed Just Above
the Flame.

One of the most practical inventions
of the last century was the miners
lamp, with its sheet of gauze sur
rounding the fame, enabling the miner
10 work in coal mines where gas was
liable to be found without danger OF
causing an explosion with his light.
Que objection to such a lamp IS that
the gas might increase in volume in
the chamber so gradually that the min
er would not be aware of its presence,
continuing to work with the assurance
that there was no danger of an expio-
sion and not detecting anything wrong
in the atmosphere. AS al improve
ment over the lamp a Pennsylvania in
ventor has suspended above the flame
a series of wires, which become heated
and grow red in proportion to their
distance from the blaze, and also in
ratio to the quantity of gas mixed
with the atmosphere. The operation
of the device is apparent. The sensi-
tive wires are adjusted on the harp to
positions determined by experiment, in
which they represent percentages OF
gas present by becoming REDEEMED with
the heat of the flame. The user OF

SUMMER N WORK
sachets Provide a Delight
full Way of Carrying About -
Scented Flower Petals.

New ideas in fancy work are always
welcome when a summer holiday is in
prospect, its programme including the
delights of sitting out of doors in the
sultry days, or when a round of country
house visiting is in contemplation, for
which a new piece of embroidery is at
all times a pleasant accompaniment.
Potpourri sachets are a dainty notion
which comes very happily with the
fancy for delicious, old-fashioned per
fumes. Our grandmothers used to store
their potpourri in china bowls and jars.
and of late years silver boxes with
pierced lids have been added to the
available receptacles for it. Potpourri
sachets provide a delightful way OF car
rying about the scented petals and i'm
parting their fragrance to the contents
of a drawer or portmanteau.
Two charming patterns are illustrated
One is shaped like a square-mouthed
bag. made in white china silk and en-
broidered with a design of half opened
crimson roses. A separate case sewed
into the lining contains the potpourri
and can be taken out and refilled at any
time with very little trouble. The 9TH
er is pale blue silk, has rounded corners
and is powdered with small roses in rib
bon work.
The lining is delicate pink silk, and In
this also a separate case contains the
