Sought Solitude to Die.

Lewiston, Me-, Jan. 23.-The body
of a woman found hanging yesterday
in the summer cottage of the Rev H.
NJ. Lowe on the shores of Andres
coggin Lake, in Leeds, was to-day
Unidentified as that of Miss Florence
Bigelow, aged forty-six, of Greene.
Miss Bigelow left the railroad sta
ton at Leeds Centre on Jan. and
presumably walked directly to the cot
tage, four miles distant and entered
by breaking a window. She had ap-
parently been dead more than week
when found.
Dependency due to the death Of
her parents some time ago and the
breaking up of her home is supposed
TO have been the cause of her suicide.
TWO brothers, c. H. and Benjamin
R. Bigelow live in Boston.

The Shepherdress.

She walks, the lady Of my delight.
A shepherdress of sheep
Her hocks are thoughts. She keeps
them while,
She guards them from the steep,
She feeds them On the fragrant height
And folds them in for sleep.
She roams maternal hills and bright
Dark valleys safe and deep.
Into her tender breast at ngiht,
The chastest stars may peep.
She walks the lady of my delight,
A shepherdess of sheep.
She holds her little thoughts on sight
Though gay they run and leap,
She is SO circumspect and right,
She has her soul to keep.
She walks, the lady of my delight,
A shepherdess ofsheep.

In the long way that I must treat

TWIN STARS ALOFT.

Twin stars afloat, in either clear,
Around each ether roll away,
Within one common atmosphere
Of their own natural light and day
And myriad happy eyes ares bent
Upon the changeless love Away;
As strengthened by their one intent,
They pour the food of life and day
So we through this worlds waning
night,
Shall, hand in hand, pursue our way
Shed round US order, love, and light,
And shine unto the perfect day.

Invisible Writing.

Prof Gross Of Germany has disclosed
n method Of invisible writing which is
said to have been largely used by pris-
oners for secretly communicating with
their friends. His recipe is as follows:
Take sheet Of common writing paper
moisten it well with clear water aud lay
IL on o hard, smooth surface. such as
glass or stone. After removing carefully
all air bubbles from the sheet place upon
it another dry sheet Of equal size and
write upon it your communication with
sharp-pointed pencil. Then destroy the
paper upon which the writing has been
done and allow the wet paper to- dry
gradually by exposure to the air. When
dry not a trace Of the writing will he
visible, but on mOistening the sheet again
with clear water and holding it against
the light the writing can be read in a
clear transparency. II disappears again
after drying in the air, and may be re-
produced by moistenng repeatedly.
Should the sheets be too much heated,
however. the writing will disappear,
never % appear again.

Where the Many Poor of Great Chinese
CITY Live

Stand beside the imperial custom

down the river tow ard Hong Kong. AS
far as the sight can reach lie boats,
boats and again boats. These are no
ordinary craft. mere vessels of transport
plying hither and thither, but the count
less homes of myriad Chinese, in which
millions have been born, have lived and
died. They are the dwellings OF the very
poor. who live in therl practically free
from rent, taxes and the other burdens
of the ordinary citizen.
The taukia (Which means boat dwell
lers). as the denizens of these floating
houses are called, form a sort of caste
apart from the rest of the Cantonese.
The shore dwelers regard them MS be-
longing to lower social order, and in
deed they have many customs peculiar
to themselves which mark them as a
separate community. How the swarming
masses of them contrive To support eX-
istence is mystery but their chief
mode of employment is in carrying mer-
chandise and passengers from place to
place. In some cases the daughters of

ries, as do the girls of other countries;
but the years earnings of Chinese fac
tory girl would scarce suffice to buy a
single hat for her western sister. OF
course as against this low rate of pay
the standard of living is correspondence
different.
The houses which make up these vast
floating slums are of all sizes. Some are
but fifteen feet long. From these
cramped dimensions, however, they
range up to length of fifty or sixty
feet. A boat large enough to accommo-
date a family of moderate size can be
obtained for $40, and since he anchor
age is free it is obvious that the taukia
effect many savings impossible to the

All that one can reasonably ask now

eat should be harmless was the extra
ordinary remark OF an expert of the
Paris city laboratory after being told of
the reports from the Geneva food con-
gress To ask more than that would be
to urge a counsel of perfection, and it
would not be followed. Wine this ex-
pert does not even talk about. Milk is
of course watered, but that is an old
story. Nowadays it also derives body"
from the addition of calves or Sleeps
brains well pounded. Sausages are, Of
course. made of many things, chiefly, it
appears. of dog flesh and potato. The
great advantage Of dog flesh is that it
helps to keep" the pork with which
it is combined. Sugar is naturally re-
placed by saccharine to which gelatin
is added to impart the required strip Of
consistency. Jams and jellies we all
know contain no fruit at all. Tartaric
acid, fuchsin. vanilla, citric acid. glu-
c0se. are few of the substances used
as substitutes. So-called pomegranate
strip is a standard family drink in France.
1t has never been made of pomegranite
within the memory Of the oldest grocer,
but is chiefly composed of tartaric acid.
Chocolate consists of grease and -four,
