Among the irst things presented were a pair of •tick silk stockings and a pair of kid slippers. “What are these?” Miss Harring ton asked. “Why; they af'e.tHe tie west style of slippers, auntie,” said h-*r niece. “Paper soles, and three-inch heels tapered down to a cherry pit in the middle of theifoqt.

There wasn’t an inch of flannel to be, seen;, nothing but the finest find, most elabor ately beruffied and embroidered linen. “And you do not own a flannei petticoat, Hianche?" “What in the Wdrid do t Want of flannels? You know I almost al ways go out in the carriage, and there are lots of warm robes.” “It is'about as I supposed,” Miss Harrington remarked sadly. “Your breakdown is due to perfectly plain ind natural causes. There is noth- ng in the least mysterious about it. You havedeformed your feet, weak ened your spine, and consequently your whole nervous system, by the shoes you have worn. By a series of exposure* you have reduced your vital force to such an extent that reaction was impossible without further prostration and a complete cessation of irritating causes. Here are your corsets. How much do they measure, please ?” “Nineteen inches, auntie,” the young lady was almost ready to cry now, “and these are a whole inch larger than most girls of my size “Fhali I get the.Wariltet^'And my quilted slippers, Blanche'” Aiint Mary inquired. “Yes; bring the gunboats and the flannels," her companion replied, “And If yod Cad find a few hen’s feaibei-S to stick in my hair the re semblance - to A.

His eyes looked fair away; and ever and anon broke forth that grieving cry: “If I could only see my mother!’ An old sailor sat by, a Bible in his hand, frorq which he was reading.

Lockjaw. Camphor is made in Japan in this way. After a tree is felled to the earth it is cut into chips, which are laid in a tub or a large iron pot par tially filled with Water, find placed over a slow fire. Through holes in the tub steam slowly rises, and, heating the chips generates oil and camphor. Of course, the tub with- the chips has fi Closely fitting cover. From this cover a bamboo pipe leads to a succession of other tubs with bamboo connections and the last of these tubs is divided into two compartments, one above the other, the dividing floor being perforated with small holes to allow the water and oil to pass to the lower compart ment The upper compartment is supplied with a straw layer, wbieh catches and holds the camphor in crystal in deposit as it passes to the cooling process. The camphor is then separated from the straw, packed in wooden tubs and is ready for market. The oil is used by the natives for illuminating and other purposes.

The phenomenal growth of the Wyoming stock growers’ associa tion is suggestive of the vast im- importance if cattle interests of this country. Twelve years ago this association was organized with ten members owning 20,00U head of cattle, valued at $350,000. To-day it has 435 mem bers owning 2,000,000 head of cat tle, whose estimated value is $100,- 000,000. Its sway extends over the whole of Wyoming and portions of six other states and territories, and it is without doubt the largest asso ciation of the kind in the world. Some remarkable photographs of a bullet in its flight, under the illumination of an electric spark, have been secured by Prof. E. Mach of Prague.
