Origin of Vaudeville.
The vvo.T. "v.-imh-vHle," which now
means a play in which songs are Intro¬
duced, is a corruption of Ytiux do tire,
the names of two valleys In Normandy.
A fuller In Vire, lu the fifteenth con
tury, composed some humorous and
satirical drinking pongs, which, were
very popular throughout France, under
the name of their native place, “Vnux
do Vire," She terms seem to have
been corrupted Into volx do ville. A
collection of songs .was published at
Lyons in loCl entitled "Chansons Volx
do Ville,” nittl another tit Paris in 1570
called "Reouetl lies Plus llelles ('hail-
sons on Forme ties Volx do Ville.”
Both these publications wore probably
reprints of the original songs.. At any
rate, the name ‘‘vaudeville” has In some
way grown out of them, ltostou Globe.

prove. The sun would appear surround¬

A FACT PROVEN.
Should Convince Even the Most Skep¬
tical ot It* Truth.
If there is the slightest doubt In the
minds of any that Dandruff germs do not
exist, their belief is compelled by tho
fact that a rabbit lnnoculated with tho
gorms became bald in six weeks' time.
It must be apparent to' any person
therefore that the only prevention of
baldness is the destruction of the germ—
which net is successfully
In one hundred per cent, of cases by
the application of Newbro's Herplcide.
Dandruff la caused by tho same germ
which causes baldness and can be pre¬
vented with the same remedy—Newbro's
Herplcide.

cause you remove the effect.”

New York, August 2A—Miss Susan
B. Anthony, accompanied by the Rev.
Anna M. Shaw and Miss Lucy Anthony
have returned from Europe, where
tho'y attended the congress of wo¬
men held In Berlin. Miss Anthony
said:
"FXiglish women are well informed
on polities and talk of them and,
Indeed, most subjects of general inter,
est, much more than America^ wo¬
men. In Scotland and Ireland*they
arc doing the same thing as jn Eng¬
land.
"We in America are not gaining
materially as much as we hoped, but
there fe an undercurrent.
“We found the German woman very
responsive. The fact that Emperor
William permitted and encouraged our
efforts, is significant, if not of person¬
al liberty at least of deference to out
opinion.’’

Pumice Stone.
Pumice stone Is a porous fcidspathlc
icorla from volcanoes. The pores are
linear and so fine as often to he barely
visible except by means of a magnify¬
ing glass. Its specific- gravity is 2.2 to
2.4—water being the unit—but by rea¬
son of its -spongy texture pieces are
often buoyant enough to float on water.
It consists chiefly of silica, with some¬
times 17 per cent of lumina, 6 per cent
of soda and 4 per cent of potash. It
of grayish shades of color, passing Into
yellow and brown. The chief source
from which it is obtained for commer¬
cial purposes Is Cuinpo Bianco, one of
the Lipari islands, where It forms a MU
nearly 1,000 feet high. In the arts
pumice Is largely employed, mostly in
a pulverized state, as a polishing mate¬
rial for Ivory, wood, glass, marbles, etc.
It is also used in lump for grinding and
smoothing metallic surfaces, leather,
etc., and In the preparation of parch¬
ments, etc. Quantities of the pulver¬
ized pumice are used in making fancy
soaps.

“A meerschaum pipe that would have
brought $25 ten years ago wouldn't
bring more than $10 now,” said a to¬
bacconist. "Meerschaum pipes used to
be fashionable and popular in America,
but they are not much sought for to¬
day.
“It isn’t strange that the liking for
them should have waned. The meer¬
schaum is an unsatisfactory pipe at
the best. Drop It and it is Irretrievably
broken. Try to oh lor it, and for a
mouth it tastes like soap.
"It isn't the meerschaum in one of
these pipes that colors anyway. It is
a mixture of beeswax and oil that the
carvers rub Into the block before they
carve It. You could smoke a pipe of
pure meerschaum all your life, and nt
your death it would be ns white ns It
had been ut your birth, it is the oil
and beeswax—only that- which colors.”

Fault* In < oa% ersatton.
Dean Swift once u .1: " . h re are
two faults lu conversation which ap¬
pear very different, yet arise from the
same root and are equally blamaldc.
I menu nn impatience to Interrupt oth¬
ers and the uneasiness of being In¬
terrupted ourselves. The two chief
ends of conversation are to entertain
and Improve those we are among or to
receive those temeflts ourselves, which
whoever will consider cannot possibly
run Into cither of those two errors, be¬
cause when any man gpeaketh In com¬
pany It Is to be supposed lie doth It for
Ills hearers’ sake and not Ids own, so
that common discretion will tench us
not to force their attention if they
are not willing to lend It, nor, on the
other side, to Interrupt him who Is
in possession, because that Is In tho
grossest manner to give the preference
to our own good sense.”

bnt as 'civilians.
To the mutinous soldiers it meant
that the great commander, wliom they
had followed for ten long years from
the Alps to the Thames a ad from the
Rhine to the Pyrenees and across the
Rubicon, disowned them ns soldiers and*
dismissed them from his victorious
service.
Realizing Its meaning, the story goes,
the mutineers were appalled. Battle
scarred veterans burst into tears, Im¬
plored their ieader to pardon them and
Inflicted summary punishment upon
the Inciters of the mutiny ns a proof of
their repentance.
A Poor Show.
An American was describing to nn
English sportsman the west of the
past. miner,” he
“Our old time western
said, “had nn Ingenuous and simple
mind. There was a miner in Montana
who rode into Anaconda one day to see
an entertainment that had been an¬
nounced. This . entertainment was a
play, but the miner had never seen n
play—a panorama was the only sort of
entertainment with which he had ever
been regaled.
“Long before the hour to begin he
bought his seat and entered the hall.
He sat there in solitude for about twen¬
ty minutes. He gazed at the curtain
intently. It was a poor curtain, noth¬
ing but a gray, pyramidal mountain
painted on a dark blue background.
When tho miner bad looked his fill at
It he rose and departed for his distant
home.
“ ‘A pretty rotten panoramer,’ he was
heard to mutter as he mounted his
horse.”
A Queer Murrlnsre Ceremony.
Among the Kherrlas of India tho
marriage eeremony is very funny.
Taking a small portion of the hatr of
the bride and groom In tuil) from the
center of the forehead, the priest draws
It down on to the bridge of the nose.
Thou, pouring oil on the head, he
watches It carefully ns it trickles down
the portion of hatr. If the oil runs
straight on to the tip of the nose their
future will he fortunate, but if it
spreads over the forehead or trickles
off on either side of the nose, bad l«ek
is sure to follow. Their fortunes told,
generally to their own satisfaction, the
essential and irrevocable part of the
ceremony takes place. Standing up
side by side, but with faces strictly
averted, the bride and groom mark
each other's forehead with “sindur"
(Vermilion).

A “positively ,tnte tale” of Scotch
