complete eham m almost a straight line
between l ornt bt.X>icholas on too Java

increased in frequency and violence the

What a Belle Hus to Do.
The life of a belle at a watering place,
snys a newspaper correspondent, is one
of continuous hard labor, with little
compensation, and still, unlike the teleg¬
raphers, they do not strike. After a
late breakfast she begins her series of
engagements divided by the hours and
in the press of business into the half
homn. At eleven a. m., she gives A an
hour on the lawn; at twelve she has
B for half the morning german and C
for the other half; at one p. m. D has
this hour for a promenade in the great
paiior; desSert Ejtakes with her; her alter to dinner dinw.’r, G has F has his
chance at tenpins; H ride then slie takes takes her to
tide. Following the tea,
then comes tho german again; then a
supper and then to bed at two a. m. So
from ten in tho morning until two next
morning she is on a continual strain,
and a girl will have engagements filling
her whole time in this way for two
weeks ahead. Of course only a few
reach this pinnacle of success, but some
do. During a day a girl who is a suc¬
cess will dance ten miles and talk ten
hours. So the exercise of the muscles is
prodigious. The strain on tho brain is
not so great. Bet all this makes a
changing kaleidoscope. and dressed. The women
are beautiful well Their
manners, acquired by constant social
life with brothers and cousins and
brothers’ friends from the time they are
six years old, have a frankness, cordiali¬
ty and grace that you do not see else¬
where. They are pure, innocent and
charming; but they are likewise shrewd,
observing, and with as keen an eye to
the main chance as their Northern sis¬
ters. This is a great matrimonial mar¬
ket. Here the great heiresses from the
North and tho Northwest and the
“heirs” from Virginia and the South

is spoken of as a pleasant, agreeable

John Jacob Astor is a very religious old

Buildings that Resist Earthquakes,
_ The volcanic , eruptions ,. in . Java, the „
earthquake in Ischia, and our own Wes
tern tornadoes have probably caused
much more destruction of life and prop
erty than they would have caused if
huildings had been specially adapted to
resist them. In Japan, where shocks of
earthquake are frequent, it is not usual
to dig foundations for any building, no
matter how large or important it may
he. Bocks slightly rounded at the top
are placed where the four comers of the
house are to tie. The corner po.-As, also
rounded at the end, rest on these. The
timbers are ail pinned together, not
nailed, so as to allow of considerable
movement without coming apart. In
the central portion of the building the
timbers are particularly heavy, and act
as ballast. In high towers there are some
times huge beams swung from tne roof
and reaching to within a foot of the
ground, which prevent the buildmgfrom
being overturned either by earthquake
or storm. The oldest building in Japan,
the Treasury at Nara, is built m this
manner, without the swinging beam, but
with a very heavy ballast m the frame
work of the centre of the floor. A well
known artist is the inventor of a painting
hut which is constructed in part on the
same principle. It rests on stones at the
corners, the timbers are keyed together, the
and it carries a heavy ballast under
floor. It is, however, in addition, se
