MODERN USES FOR PAPER.

1t Is Now Made Into Houses, Yachts
 Guns and Even Into Teeth.
 vondon Answers.
 At Savinoroska, in Russia, is paper house. It has been entirely built of blocks of papieomache, even the foun- dation and roof being made from that material. So. too, are the chimneys. although the paper used in their con- struction was first mingled with ire proof material The house, which is or considerable extent, and will. in the opinion of it's architect. outlast such as are built of stone and brick. was erect ed at cost of over 5000 pounds.
 In certain towers of Russia, too. the experiment. Is now being made of uti- lizing paper for paving the roads and streets. In this case also blocks con- pressed to great solidity are employed and are said to stand excellently the wear and tear of traffic. The cost, however. is at present too great to per- init of anything like their universal adoption. For courtyards of mansions and similar purposes, where expense need not be of such consideration, paper pavements. 1t is averred, will soon come into vogue.
 Out of the sheets of an Australian daily paper an ingenious Viennesse en- gineer has lately constructed, for his own use, q small yacht. Is feet long. decked all over and provided with q centerboard. In the making of the hull, deck. masts, sails and rudder several thousand copies of the journal were used-each plank requiring no fewer than 2,500 leaves--and enormous pressure had to be employed before the necessary so1idity could be obtained. The inventor has already made several excursions on the Woeth Sea. and even in squally weather his boat is said to have behaved admirably.
 The late Herr Krupp completed, a few months before his death a num- Der of paper field pieces. These unique. guns. which were made to the order of the German Government. are intended for the exclusive use of the infantry. Their caliber is very small being, inc deed, less than two inches. and so light are they that a single soldier can unaided shoulder one with ease. Des- pite their small weight. however the resistance is greater than that of steel field piece of the same caliher
 Germany. too. can boast itself the pioneer in a dental novelty. viz, in paper teeth. which are constructed from paper pulp, instead of from the por- celain or other material usually enn- ployed. They are said to have given satisfaction to such as have ventured on their use. for not only do they keep their color well. but. not being brittle. are much less liable to chip than the ordinary false teeth. They are Iike- wise guaranteed to be very durable.
 Another recent and novel use of which paper is being put Is in the man. ufacture of barrels. The wine growers of Greece being badly off for wood with which to construct their casks, and the cost of its import being excessive lately resolved to employ paper in the manu- facture of their barrels, which will. 1t Is said, be soon in universal use throughout the country.

NAN O THE DOCKS.
BY J. c. PLUMMER. 1894, by Daily Story Pub

(CopyriBnt, 1es4' py DaaI 0'o'S " col
 A whisp of a girl was Nan, lean as to body and 1.-the as to motion, as she slipped between plies of coffee bags In search of those stray beans which trickled out of snags in the sacks Much in the way, she was oftentimes' fo stevedores and laborers and she es- capped sudden and violent death from the hoofs of horses and wheels or wagons by the merest ghost of miss. Admitting. far arguments sake, that Nan's face was clean. a condition in which no man had ever seen 1t, and also admitting. a wild fight that. her being habited in raiment that was whole and clean. Nan would have been pretty. The dirty little chin was well turned, the nose pure Grecian, the mouth sensitive and the blue eyes they were never lifted in vain when
 their owner begged few cofree beans. That mass of unkempt, tangled hair might look a coarse red in the shadow of the dock archway. but let the sun flame on 1t and 1t giistened a mesh or reddish gold.
 Puts me in mind O the gold we used to get on the Guinea coast" remarked the old wharfinger, pointing to Mans s
 sun-lit hair. and he had about as much imagination in his cranky old head as the post around which the ships wound their hawsers.
 Those were rough. hard men about the docks: hard work, hard weather and hard drinking took all the smooth ness and softness out of them, but there was something in this dirty llt- tie girl with the red-gold hair which made them all kind to her--even those Rloomy-faced men who. day after day, carried on their bent backs sacks Of coffee up an inclined platform to the second story of the warehouse-men who each year became more. bent un- til, as the sailors said. they could only
 see by looking through their own legs even these men had a grim. wcsry smiIN for Nan.
 The British bark. Belle of scarboro.
 was discharging coffee at one of the
 whraves and Capt. Harper, blum Northumberland man, took much tn- terest in Nan. For five years little | girl with aureous hair and blue eyes lhad been sleeping in a north country graveyard and Capt Harper, looking sadly and wistfully at Nan. thought she waE like that little girl. He also im- aoined that his wife would think she resernbled that little girl and 1t was very lonesome for Mrs. Harper in her home near Scarboro when the captain
 was at sea.
 ~ wish I could take her home with
 me" said the captain to MT. Stuart, his
 mate. a sour-faced old Ayrshire man, but I suppose 1t would be breaking
 some blooming law and I'd be in qoud or the ship'd be libeled."
 Ut wad be keednaping," replied Mfr.
 stuart, 'Td na think of it."
 The bark started in to load oil cake for London, but the child came on board frequently. She had made a
 warm friend of Peter. the cook. and that gentlemen seemed seized with the desire of making Nan bumper, for he
 would smuggle a bowl of burgoo from l inc crew's breakfast and keep 1t warm for her or maybe lump of dun which, | from its solidity, would seem to be well calculated to increase the weight
 of most anything.
 | But. Capt Harper looked at Nan
 with a more wistful expression every
