TOO MUCH FOR MAIDS NERVES.
New Girl Felt Herself Unequal to
Elaborate Ceremony.

The young wife was perhaps the
most punctilious housekeeper in the
greater city. She fairly lived for the
humiliation of dust particles, and her
three maids knew a degree Of disci-
pline more rigid than that Of Gen.
Butcher. One day her waitress de-
parted, an exceedingly common occur
renee in even a f1awless establish
ment. A new maid came to take her
place. After an elaborate inquisition,
the new servant was engaged on pro-
baton. The young wife explained:
Come to the dining room with me.
You will have a rehearsal. I want to
see you spread the table for a dinner
for four. Now go into the pantry,
where you will find my table china on
indexed shelves. My forks are all
labeled and l shall sit here. Now you
serve me--of course with blank plates
I am having oyster cocktails, soup
fish, aQAentree, a roast, salad, ices and
coffee.~
The new maid CROPPED through the
weird ceremony, and the foodless feast
proceeded amid silence. Finally the
maid whimpered:
II guess l am going. l couldn't d.
this every night" She fed.

One Sufferer Testifies That Deep

since, vas not to only send me to
sleep, but to stop my cough. Just why
it did so is not of much consequence.

DEATH IN THEIR OCCUPATION.
Makers Of Mirrors Poisoned by the
vapor of Mercury.

Every mirror is made at the cost
of human suffering and poisoning. The
silvering of the glass by applying a
layer of tinfoil alleged with mercury
involves so much risk of poisoning,
the work people constantly breathing
the mercury vapor, that numerous at
tempts have been made to use an
other metal for the purpose.
1t was shown by Liebig that a fine
adherent deposit of metallic silver
could be applied to glass by reducing
a solution of a silver salt with milk
sugar, SO this method has been en-
ployed as a commercial process. There
have been partly successful attempts
to get a like deposit of copper.
The mirror often lacks brilliance
and is usually disfigured with stains.
But it has been found by one F. d.
Chattaway of England that solutions
of copper salts can produce brilliant
reddish films Of metallic copper which
are as perfect relectors as silver mir.
rors. His method of coating glass
with a layer of copper, it is thought,
will probably be used extensively in
making mirrors and other glassware
articles.
