MARIE ANTOlNETTE.
Two Dramatic and Contrasting Epl
sodes In Her Life.


sodes In Her Life.
Ihistelton-Dyer, in his Royalty In
All Ages" describes two dramatic
and tragically contrasted episodes in
the life Of Marie Antoinette, the lovely
and i'll fated queen Of France. Once,
in the days of her greatest popularity,
when she went to the opera Of tIphi-
genia," when Achilles came to the line
tLet us sing and celebrate the queen" !"
he turned toward the radiant young
sovereign and sang two additional i'm
promptu lines Of charming compliment.
This graceful and unexpected homage
so delighted the audience that "all was
shouting and clapping Of hands, and
what never happened at the opera be-
fore-the chorus was encored, and
there were cries Of Long live Ie
queen!' at which expression Of feeling
her majesty was so affected that she
shed tears
On the next occasion, when Marie
Antoinette's sun Of popular favor had
set and she was nearing the tragic
close of her life, one Of he actresses in
Unforeseen Events" bowed to her as
she sang the words "Ah, how I love
my mistressr' In a moment all was in
uproar, and the theater was full Of
hoarse, angry cries Of "No mistress!
No master! Liberty" and NO master!
No queenr'' and it was some minutes
before the tumult quieted down and it
was possible to proceed with the play.

LaOiS LNuli.

Lapis lazuli, a peculiar stone, vary
ing in shades from sky blue to dark
blue, comes from various parts Of Asia
and has usually specks Of yellow OF
white iron pyrites, which some believe
to be gold or silver. The fine blue color
for painting called ultremarine is made
from lapis lazuli by grinding it into
powder and purifying it from pyrltes
and other substances which are mixed
with it in its natural state AS paint
ers know well, this color is now diff
cult to obtain genuine since a mode Of
making it artifcially has been discov-
cred by chemists. The difference in
price is great. The artificial cannot be
distinguished from the real by even
the most careful chemical tests, the
only means Of detecting the former be-
ing by the microscope, which. shows
the absence Of the sparkling particles
Of the broken stone from which the
real ultramarine IS never free.

TIE SALESWOMAN.
Work and Pay Of the Girl Behind the
Counter.

Counter.
Promotion is very slow in a depart
ment store. A girl may enter store at
Sc week and, after FIVE or six or sew
en- years, receive an advance Of 81 a
week if she puts up q pretty stiff fight
and Is a valuable saleswoman.
Her work is not the dull grind it
might be supposed. The hours are
long, it is true, but the continual pro-
cession OF humanity which files before
her lends interest and certain kind
Of excitement to every hour. Human
nature is wonderfully facile in its dis
closures, and the shopgirl who has
two ideas in her head and keeps her
wits about her very soon learns the
difference between the real lady and
the spurious article She learns to
know at glance whether her custo-
mer is likely TO order a box Of hair
pins or a spool Of thread sent home,
miles away, by the delivery wagon, or
it may be high priced goods ordered
to be sent c. O. D. to locality which
does not contain residence street
These girl quietly replaced on a shelf
one day and to my inquL.ing look re-
piled: "She never expected to pay for
those things, but she felt ashamed to
have taken up so much Of my time
without buying anything. Oh, yes, it
often happens, but we soon know how
to size 'em upv'-AIary Rankin Gran

ENGLISH ELECTIONS.
;tandins For n Seat In Parliament
Is Expensive.

Standing For Il Seat In Parliament
Is Expensive.
Although there are strict laws
against bribery In the English cleo
tions, standing for a seat in parlia-
ment is by no means an inexpensive
matter. Even q small constituency
will cost not less than $1,000, and the
expenses run from that up to $4,000.
At one election a candidate paid out
on an average Of $50 for each vote,
but this Is regarded as the record
price, the cost running as low as 81
a head
The purchasing Of a vote disqualifes
the candidate, even though he may be
innocent Of any participation in the
bribery, and as result candidates
and their workers-"agents" they call
them in England-are most careful
that their actions shall be above sus-
picion.
Dinners may be served q constitu-
ency, but payment even to the women
Of a family is regarded as bribery, and
the candidates are compelled to trust
to speeches, house to house conyasses
and literature, both for hand distribu-
ton and In the form Of posters.

Trading In Your own ipwn.

A right that belongs to every citizen
is the privilege Of spending his earn
ings in whatever manner and where
he wishes as long as he keeps within
the law. No one will dispute the farm
er's claim that he can send his money
to any place that he wishes and buy
goods he needs wherever he wants to.
But there is an economic side Of the
question that should not be overlooked,
says y. NJ. Carr in Home Trade Advo-
cate. The resident Of a community
should be active in furthering the in
terests Of the place he calls home. He
Is working contrarily to his own good
when he sends his money to the dis
tant city for supplies he knows can be
secured in his home town. The dollar
sent away goes out Of circulation and
ce; ;es to be factor in the building up
of community from which it is sent.

Alcohol In Cold Weather.

A scientist thus explains why it Is so
dangerous to- use alcohol in the polar
regions: 4 moderate use Of alcohol
causes a deposit Of fat. Alcohol IS not
turned into fuel in the muscle and
nerve cells, but serves as pure fuel
in the organism and replaces the COM
bustion Of fat. Alcohol is therefore
dangerous in the extreme cold because
it assists the throwing of Of heat IN q
great degree. The effect is as If q
stove in room should be heated red
hot and then all the doors and windows
thrown open. Heat produced by mus
cular work in the body is best obtained
from carbohydrates in the food; but,
besides this, the indispensable produc-
ton Of heat is best obtained by fats.
This explains the instructive choice of
the food Of men. In the tropics they
eat little fat and much fruit, while the
polar dweller requires immense quaint
ties Of fat to keep up the bodily COM
buston.

The Papal Tiara.

According to Brewer, the tiara oftthe
pope is composite emblem. The pri-
mary meaning is purity and chastity,
the foundation and lining Of the crown
being Of the finest linen. The gold
band denotes supremacy. The first
cap Of dignity was adopted by Pope
Damascus II. in 1049. The cap was
surmounted With high coronet in
1895 by Boniface VIII. The second
coronet was added in 1886 by Benedict
XII. to indicate the prerogatives Of
spiritual and temporal power combined
in the papacy. The third coronet is in
dicatiTe Of the Trinity, but it Is not
known who first adopted it. Some say
Urban ", others John XXI, John
XIII. or Benedict XII.

How Snakes Move nnd Climb.

The yertebrae Of snake are fitted
together by q kind Of ball and socket
articulation, which, however, IS capa-
Bile Of only lateral or side to side mo-
ton. \ snake moves by propelling
himself on the points Of his scales,
which, to him, answer the purpose Of
ribs. 4 snake does not climb a tree
or a bush by coiling around It, as most
people who have not investigated the
matter believe, but by balancing him
self very evenly and holding Oh with
the points and edges Of his scales. a
snake on pane Of glass or other pol
ished surface where the scales cannot
take hold is almost perfectly helpless.

 blesome one-foot strip of land on South Main, which has been ereating SO much discussion of late. asked per mission to address the council on the subject of c0ndemning the str Of eroand Mayor White held that as the strip had already been orIese

 Mir. w. T. Tankersley is one of the most fluent speakers of the city. and his addresses are always interesting and listened to With close attention. He was at his best at the council meeting Monday night for his subject was ore in which he was closely in terested himself and he had master ed the details of the theme before him. He began by explain ng fully the history of the opening of Main street in the south end of town, and let out many interesting facts not heretofore generally known to the public. Capt N. T. Roberts and him. self had acquired certain property ex- tending from Twelfth to Fourteenth avenues. on South Ma n street. and, desiring to open up Main street the distance of their property, had called uren those other property owners most interested in an effort to enlist thor aid in doing so. He explained that they would have to donate about one-third of their property, valued at something like S1,500. in doing this, and as the burden would fall heavily urcn their shoulders if taken alone, had asked their neighbors most in- tnrested in the opening of the street to help them financially by donating
