The Old Time Parlor.

The days of the parlor are fast going.
There was once time when every
family, no matter how poor, had its
parlor. And generally the parlor was
a most useless place, but it was the
pride of the housewife. The Observant
Citizen remembers some time ago when
the lady of the house insisted that be
should see her parlor." Her husband
smiled good naturally, and they both
ed the way to big front room which
was .ocked The door was unlocked,
and the parlor got its first fresh air in
months. The little family had expend-
ed much money on the parlor. Every
thing was new but the stuffed birds
under glass cases. The design of the
carpet was wonderful in that it consist
ed of bright red roses. One felt like
stepping into bed of flames. A horse
shoe sofa, very erect, was the principal
article Of furniture, while at the win
dows were the stffest lace curtains you
ever saw. The room had a musty
smell due to long confined air. 1t was
luxury imprisoned" on a small scale
and the finest example Of the old time
useless parlor. Union.

Popular Names Abroad.

Numerous as are the members Of the
Smith family, they do not occupy as
prominent a place in European direc-
tories as, they do in those Of England
or at home, though they take up much
room in the Berlin directory, 5000
Schmidts being registered. They have
to give room, however, to the Schultzes
and Mullers. In Brussels the Jansen
family is the most numerOusly repre-
scented. while the greater space in the
Paris directory is given over to the
Martinets. - ,.-
MOrelli and Vitelli are the names
most numerous in Naples. and here the
Smiths sink into significance; but. like
the word hello" the name Of Smith
is heard around the world and is repre-
scented in practically every directory
published. more than may be said Of
any other surname, whatever its ma
tionality.

ROYAL Tins.

Some of the European monarchs give
very large tips whenever they travel,
and others, Oh the contrary, are quite
niggardly. Emperor Nicholas of Rus
sia Is the most liberal in this respect.
During his brief visit to France three
years ago he spent $4,000 on tips to
servants and almost as much on pres
ents to officials and others. King Ed
ward of England Is not quite as gener-
GUS, but as he travels good deal; both
within his own realm and abroad, he Is
obliged to lay aside each year 1000
as an allowance for tips. Emperor Will
liam Of Germany Is much more gener-
GUS in foreign country than at home,
and during his recent visit to Cowes,
England, he spent not less than $4,000
on tips. OF the remaining rulers some
spend reasonable sums and others very
little, but probably quite as much as
they can afford.

Robbing Trunks In Italy.

A traveller just returned from Italy
reports that trunk belonging to one
Of his party was cut open on the rail-
way between Rome and Genoa and
clothes abstractcd to the value Of EGO.
When he consulted the British consul
on the subject he heard that lady had
been at the consulate q few minutes
before who had lost the whole of her
valuable jcwclry in the same way. 1t
is really astonishing that the Italian
police and the railway companies be-
tween them do not take effectual steps
to stop this scandal. There is no other
civilized country where travellers lug,
gage Is habitually rified while in
charge Of the railway companies as ii
is in Italy, and the knowledge that this
is so must keep many people out Of the
country, especially wealthy travellers,
whom it Is the interest Of the authori'
ties to encourage. In the meantime
would point out to travellers in Italy
that the insurance Of luggage against
theft Is a precaution that should al
ways be taken.-London Truth.

Types of Old World Beauty.

1t is said that when artists are seek
ing for models the palm for beauty and
symmetry of figure is given to the girls
Of Spain, while the daughters of rural
Ireland are a good second. The pretty
faces and graceful throats are found
among English maidens. A model for
a perfect arm would be sought for
among Grecian ladies, while lady Of
the Turkish harem would be regarded
as the possessor of dalntily COM
mendable hand. Italians are usually
good in figure and some Of the most
beautiful models, perfectly proportion
ed, are derived from the women of
sunny Italy. Frenchwomen, as rule,
are not in request, being too thin and
vivacious for the purpose, while the
face and limbs Of German frau are
too commonplace for artistic work.

THE MODERN TORPEDO.
How This Deadly Marine Weapon II
Made and Operated.


The Whitehead torpedo Of today Is a
steel cigar or automatic porpoise shaped
weapon or projectile from twelve to
seventeen feet long and eighteen inches
in diameter at it's widest. They are
made in both sizes for our navy, and
when ready for firing even small one
will weigh over half ton.
They are delivered in five sections,
which contain upward of 1000 pieces
Of machinery. The wet gun cotton in
the war head" is inserted in slabs,
each with hole in its center to re-
ceiye the core of dry gun cotton directly
connected with the decorating primer,
which contains illuminate of mercury
and O percussion cap. In front OF the
primer is screwed the war 'nose'-a
rery sensitive nOse-which operates
automatically when the weapon strikes
and sets off the whole charge
Behind tie war hel! comes the cham
Der containing the compressed air that
drives this singular projectile through
the water. Into this chamber is pumped
air at pressure of about 1900 pounds
to the square inch. And this, escaping
through a valve leading to the little ell
gines, provides the motive power. Next
comes the mechanism which automat-
ically regulates the depth Of the torpe-
do during it's run. This ingenious ap-
paratus has been kept a great secret
and sold in turn to the various nations
Of the world. Not far from the tail Of
the torpedo are placed the driving en-
gincs. There is also controlling valve
which can be arranged so as to close
automatically after the weapon has
run a certain distance, thus Obviating
q futile explosion in the event of the
torpedo missing its target,-W. G. Fitz-
Gerald In Harper's Weekly.
