Match CRYSTAL Making.

The process of making the watch
glasses is more or less a secret, as is
also the construction of the ovens,
but it is known that the glass is
blown into large spheres or balloons,
after which it is baked and anneal-
ed. Skilled workmen then cut out
the glasses with a diamond point,
after which they are ground to the
proper sizes. The ovens are very
expensive to build, costing not less
than $4,000 each, and their opera
ton is so difficult that one of the
firms found it cheaper to shave their
Balloons" made by the oldest man
ufacturers who were more expert,
than to make them themselves.-St.

How Roseetti First Met His Wife.

1t was MiIlais' picture, "Ophelia," ex-
hibited at the academy in 1852, that
provided his friend and brother pre-
raphaelite, Dante Gabriel Rossetti
with wife. Millais had been alto
gether at a loss for a suitable model
for his picture, but at length secured
one in the person Of charming young
lady who was employed as an assist
ant behind the counter of a bonnet
shop. She was the daughter of a
Sheffield tradesman, a beautiful and
lovable girl with wealth Of golden
lair, by name Elizabeth Siddal.
Young Rossetti straightway fell deep
ly in love with the fair model He
taught her to paint and ultimately
married her.

A FRANC FOR A LIFE.
Exciting Adventure With a Moslem
Fanatic In Algeria.

Exciting Adventure With Moslem
Fanatic In Algeria.
Near the western end Of Quar- in a
lonely street for most Of the men
were sleeping from II to 3 during the
heat Of the day. I met a tall, stalwart
Riff from the mountains, writes Rev.
w. G. Pope, who was a missionary in
Algeria.
Accosting him with the usual Arabic
salutation, I asked him if he could
read. He answered, "No."
where do you live"
I'm the mountain, twenty miles
west"
Have you sheik who can readY'
"Yes."
'Then will you please take him this
book, with my greetings, and ask him
to read it to you all?''
What it is-a Koran?'
"No; the story of the life of the
Messiah"
He then turned and asked if / was a
follower Of the Messiah, to which !
answered, eyes"
Then arose his Moslem fanaticism,
for he was an Aissaoua, terribly
fanatical section Of the Moslems In
Morocco.
Drawing his knife and holding IL
over me, he uttered one word, "Sha-
hedv' (witness), meaning that I was
to say, with my forefnger raised,
"There is no God but Allah, and Mo.
hammed is the prophet Of Allah"
1 felt white, but tried to look cour-
ageous and unconcerned. I remon-
strated with him for so acting with
his Amel's guest, but all to no pur-
pose. He reiterated his one word,
"Shahedv'
His knife was an ugly weapon. 1t
looked like piece Of sharpened barrel
hoop with two pieces Of goats horn
fastened together to make handle.
Knowing the Arabs love Of an Eng.
lish knife, I asked him If his knife was
an English one. He answered that he
had made it himself.
Remembering that in one pocket
had a franc in silver and coppers anc
in the other a French louis, deteN
mined to buy the knife if possible.
Taking out my small change, I de-
cided to try that first. 1 referred to
the fact that the English were very
proud Of their knives and l would
much like to take back to my country
Moroccan knife to show what others
could do and offered to purchase it.
The sight Of the French coppers and
glistening piece of silver was too
much even for his fanaticism. He un-
did his leather sheath, restored the
knife to its place, looked once up and
down the street to see no one was look
ing. then, with apparent joy, exchanged
the knife for the money and the book
and went of happy.
Which of the two felt the happier
cannot tell, but never forgot that my
life in Quar- was purchased back for O
paltry franc.--Liyerpool Post.

Mania Precious Rih.

A young lady having asked sur
geon why woman was made from the
rib of a man in preference to another
bone, he gave her the following gallant
answer:
''She was not taken from the head
lest she should rule, nor from his feet
lest he should trampie upon her, but
she was taken from his side that she
might be his e.:'.. rom under his
arm, that he might protect her; from
near his heart, that he might cherish
and love er."-Houston Chronicle.

Humors of the Dublin Gallery.

The humor of the Dublin gallery
has long been proverbial. Macready
in his "reminiscences" relates that
on one occasion when playing OF
ways ''Venice Preserved" Jaffier's
long and rather drowsy dying speech
was interrupted by one of the gal
lery, in tone of great impotence,
calling out very loudly, "Ah, now
die at once!" to which another from
the other side Immediately replied,
"Be quiet, you blackguard," then
turning with patronizing tone to
the lingering Jafier, ''Take your
time"

A Daisy.

'You are a daisy" is used by
Dickens in 'David Copperfeld" in
the sense of calling a person a daisy
in the way to express admiration
and at the same time to laugh at
ones credulity. Steerforth says to
young Copperfeld: David, my dai-
sy, you are so innocent Of the world.
Let me call you my daisy, as it is SO
refreshing to find one in these cor
rupt days so innocent and unsophis-
ticated. My dear Copperfield, the
daisies of the field are not freshes
than YOU"
