TELEGRAPH POLE OF CRYSTAL
Streets In French City Paved With
Glass Blocks Also Asserted TO
Give Satisfaction.

The increasing uses TO which crystal
Is being put are little short az mar
velous- In Lyons there are many
streets paved with glass blocks. these
being adjusted so perfectly that water
Is not able to pass between them. Ii
Is said that the glass pavement has
greater resistance than stone and is
bad conductor OF heat. for which rea-
son Ice does not form readily on the
surface Moreover. ii is beyond Ques.
ton more durable than stone. it is
cheaper and more easily portable. and
i offers neither interstices nor hol-
lows where mud can lodge.
IN Germany. near Frankfort, there
is factory for the manufacture Of
crystal telegraph poles In order to
give better soIidity 70 the crystal mass
Of the posts they carry a framework
Of thick wire. These posts are better
than wood because they perfectly re-
sist the attacks OF insects and are i'm.
pervious TO atmospheric influences.
Dresses made OF crystal thread
have been known for some time.
Dresses OF spun crystal have a bril-
liancy like silk Curtains, carpets,
mantles, and relatively fine textures
generally are being made of crystal
while factories are going up In various
parts of western Europe for the fur
thering of this industry. .-Harpers

clear Case Of Madnssa.

Louis Trosky of Ohio is politician
Of considerable influence in his state.
One evening. when he was in Wash
ington, he was invited to dine at the
home of John r. Mclean. who dabbles
IN Ohio politics and costly tapestries.
Every time Mr. Mclean hears of a
tapestry sale in Europe he peels off
a section OF his bank roll, hands it to
an agent, and tells him to blow it in
on the han ngings.
Trosky's appetite was very poor
that night Apparently he was in
great physical pain or felt the gnaw-
ing clutch OF a secret sorrow. When
lie got back to Ohio he made this
mournful announcement.
i've always heard that John r. Nc
Lean was wise old guy. It's mis-
take. That old fellow is as crazy as
a loon. He took me in to dinner in a
room where there was absolutely
nothing on the floor, and all the car
pets were hanging on the wall -

SILK GROWERS IN COMPLAINT
Manufacture Of Artificial Article Is
Bitterly Resented by French Deal
ers IN the Real Thing.

The silk makers OF France are wag-
ng an unusual war against the maxi
ers OF artificial silk. which was pro-
duced last year to the amount Of
100000 kilos Ia kilo is % pounds
according to the Berlin chamber Of
commerce.
The better grades of this artificial
silk sell for So kilo, and the cheap
est as low as s1.20. On the other hand,
real silk costs at least SS.40 kilo 70
produce.
The effect of this competition is
shown by the falling off In the produc-
ton of silk. The number of silk worm
raisers has declined since 1892 from
10000 to 10000. and the product hiss
declined 40 per cent, to only 425,000
kilos.
Appeals to the law are being made
by the silk growers, who saw that tho
use of the word artificial in connec-
ton with silk is not enough to protect
them against ruinous competition.

The Gentleman.

Carlyle said of Robert Burns that
there was no truer gentleman In Eu-
rope than the plowman poet. lt was
because he loved everything the
mouse and the daisy. and all the
things, great and small, that God had
made. SO with this simple passport
he could mingle with any society, and
enter courts and palaces from his
little cottage on the banks of the Ayr
You know the meaning of the word
gentleman" It means a gentle man
Ia man who does things gently with
love. And that is the whole art and
mystery Of It. The gentleman cannot
in the nature of things do an un-
gentle, an ungentlemanIy thing. The
ungentle soul, the inconsiderate, un-
sympathetic nature cannot do any
thing else-Benry Drummond.

weddIno RInc.

Most people know that the reason
the wedding ring is put on the fourth
finger of the left hand is said to b.
because the first two fingers and the
thumb were counted all as fingers.
and therefore as three. The thnmb
used to be the ring finger anciently
and the seal rings OF those in authog
ity were placed on this first short
thick finger, the most useful OF the
hand. The wedding ring is the mod
ern descendant of this old-time thumb
ring and was removed to the fourth
finger in this way: The first three
were named for the three persons OF
the Trinity, and at the word amen,
after the naming of the three. the
ring reached the fourth finger and was
left there. In reality. the ring finger
is the safest place for it.
There is another and less pleasant
origin, too. for the wedding ring. The
old rings we're the mark Of bondage
as well as of dignity.
