GORGEOUS NIGHTROBES.
Velvet and SHksn Ones Used to so
 Worn In the Daytime,

Velvet and SHksn Ones Used to so
 Worn In Che Daytime,
 In the middle ages night robes, as general thing. were unknown luyurles.
 Under the Tudors royalty and mo- bfHty had them made of silk or vel vet and. as thc old books say. hence no washing was necessary
 A nighrobe of black satin bound with black taGcta and edged with vel vet of the same color was do0n.,y fashioned for Anne BolCyn.
 More luxurious stin was one owned by Queen GcsS. It was of black vel vet fur lined, and greatly offset by flowing borders of silk lace. And Ia l5GS her majesty gave orders that George Brodigman should deliver "threescorc and six best sable shynnes, to furnish us niChtgowu." Four years later her highncss orders Che delivery of twelve yards of purple velvet friezcd on the back syde. with white and russct Silke" for 70 night gown for herself and also orders the delivery oC fourteen yards of wuTy damask for the "m0kyuge of a night gnwuc" for some one u'Sr
 NiChtrowns for ladies 0f later period were called "nyuht v1i's" In Queen Annc's time U was Che fashion Co wear them over thc customary dress In the streets n tHe daytime when out on pleasure walk And. as was it- ting. ladies who ndUlCCd In night caps had them also made of silk or velvet. with much pretty garnish.ng or lacc and gl'Ucriug c0rls" and the fair ones made presentation Of costly caps Co each other as tokens of respect or affection

MAN OF MANY SUFFERS.
Court Bal Comedy of a Small German
 Capital

Court Bal Comedy of Small German
 Capital.
 An amusing story of an Incident at a masked bah given at Che capital Of one uf the smaller German principal. ties is told in Berlin. The rule was printed upon the invitation cards that every one must come either m fancy dress or in a black domino
 In one of the rooms ot the court a buffet had been set out and the ut- tendants there soon came Co remark the unusually active appetite of one guest duly masked and Cloakcd, who consumed extraordinarily large guan- titles of the more expensive deliCocics and wines. After several minutes ot vigorous eating he would leave the buffet and disappear among the throng Of dancers. Soon. however, he would be back again, his appetite apparently as strong as ever
 After the fourth visit at short inter vals of this hungry guest the head waiter called the attention Of the master os ceremonies, who waited at the buffet until the masked stranger once more returned. He was again served with a full supply of food and wine and as he turned away was DO Utely asked to show his invitation card
 At this some confusion was noticed in his bearing. and the master of cerc- monies requested him to remove his mask and cloak. To the aStonishment Of the servants and thc amusement of the guests there was revealed the shamefaced figure of one or the sol diers of the guard on duty in the hall below. The guards had found a spare domino lying In the hall and they had been putting it on one after the other during the evening, so as to be able to 20 boldly Into the bathrooms and eat fbefr FU at the buffet uuchaIlenCed.
 So amused at the story was the grand duke that he refused Co allow tbe greedy soldiers to be punished.- Berlin Cor. London Mail

Blue Balloons.

In case you ever feel tempted to buy
q balloon don't buy a blue one. Red
ones are the best. There Is a scientific
reason why. According to the re-
searches Of NJ. Reynaud, caoutchouc Is
strongly attracted by the ultra violet
rays from the mercury vapor lamp
with a quartz tube. which Is a power
full source Of such rays. This fact has
q practical bearing In connection with
balloon envelopes. which are treated
with caOutchouc. Aeronauts are IA
miliar with the discovery that the en-
velopes suffer during ascensions, and
this is explained by the greater effect
Of ultra violet rays at high attitudes.
Experiment had already led to using
yellow coloring matter on the envel
opes, and red balloons are sometimes
seen, but never blue or violet. NJ
Reynaud considers hat red is the best
color to use. as it not only absorbs the
ultra violet rays, but also the blue
rays, and these last are likely to share
In the bad action of the suns rays upon
balloons.-New York World.

Rock Salt Discovered by Accident.

The great rock salt deposits Of Louis
lana were discovered by accident In
May, 1862. Salt was very scarce at
that time, and the proprietor Of the
Islands salt works. John Marsh Avery,
determined to profit by 1t. With this
end In view he commenced to deepen
his wells. One negro workman, after
going down sixteen feet, came to Mr..
Avery with the news that he had
struck sunken log. and could pro-
ceed no further Mr.. Avery Investigate
ed and found. not log, but the great
rock salt deposit that has made Louis
lana famous throughout the country.
The discovery did not come altogether
rs a surprise, as Thomassy had pre-
dicted that a great rock salt deposit
would one day be discovered In each of
the five Gulf islands, and perhaps in
other portions of the state. Since the
close Of the war, rock salt has been
an important contributing factor In the
mineral wealth of the state.-National

The Wagon Wheel Paradox.

A very interesting paradox Is the one
concerning an ordinary wagon wheel.
which is solid and rigid, yet, when fas-
tened on its axle on a wagon, when the
!. wagon moves part Of the circumfer-
Hnce of the wheel which Is in contact
Nth the ground is for an instant at
&absolute rest. while the point directly
perpendicular to it is flying along at a
high rate Of speed. The two points
horizontal with the center of the wheel
are travelling pretty fast, but only half
as fast as the topmost point, and as
the up going horizontal point increases
in speed the down going one slows ur
until 1t is Mt rest FOR a moment when
I'm contact with the ground. Yet the
wheel Is one solid piece and there are
only two points going at the same rate
Of speed at the same time. Yet If the
wheel Is taken Off the axle and rolled
down an incline every point Of the cir
conference moves at the same rate of
speed.
