When the really cold weather seta in,
long cloaks of velvet or plush, and even
satin, lined with wadded and quilted
silk or fur, will be used. These wraps
will be cut straight nnd without
sleeves, but full at the shoulder, on ac
count of the wide dress sleeves under
neath. Jackets are not to be quite dis
carded ; but closefltting bodices, with
tight sleeves, will have to be made ex

The best way to stop the pain from a
burn or scald when the skin has been
taken off is to break an egg over the
wound- The suffering arises largely
from the exposure to the air, and the
white of the egg forms an artificial
skin or covering, which, for a time,
effectually prevents contact with the
air, and so lessens the irritation of the
nerves.
Bow the Bu*tne** of Produulng Tiling*
to Eat Huh Grown In a Few Year*
The influence of the provision
trade on the development of the
oountries of production does not con
cern us directly, but in considering
the subject as a whole some allusion
nustbe made to it. The prepara
tion of food for exportation has been
a source of prosperity' wherever it
has been able to establish itself, but
among the many regions that have
made money by it the United States
have profited the most. Tl*y wore
first to begin, on a large scale at
least, and they have gone on until
they may be said to bo growing
everything. Though the larger part
of their products is ulrendy required
for home use, their shipments else
where liavo become a business of
great gain to them, nnd have aided'
largely in the opening of new terri
tories. but lot it bo remembered that,
unlike us, they live exclusively on
what they raise, and only send away
their surplus.
Tho canning trade of the west has
been can-led to its actual success, not
by exportation, but by home con
sumption. Of the 1,100,000 tins of
fruit prepared in Califomia in 1800
only 147,000 are shown to have been
shipped abroad from Californian
ports. All the rest “went east,” and
though we must allow largely for
exportations from Chicago, which
has become n great distributing cen
ter, it ts beyond doubt that the
greater portion of tlie rest was used
for native w#nts. In tho matter of
fruit the yield can hardly keep up
with the home demand, although its
increase is so rapid that the quanti
ties of many sorts of both tinned
and dried fruits are doubling from
year to year. And so it is in many
Dther tiudeH. The pock of tinned
salmon on the Pacific coast affords
almost the Bole example of overpro
duction. It reaches to about 1,(100,-
000 eases, of which British Columbia
furnishes 400,000 and the United
States 1,200,(Kill. Tho market cannot
absorb ull this, and the make will
have to bo cut down.
Tlie provision trade of Chicago
now attains ail annual income of
128,000,000, although if.out conning
lias spread away from its great homo
to many new points out went, ami is
prospering especially at Cedar
Rapids, Sioux City anil Kf.nrrm City.

Where the Idea of Canning Came From*
Few people are aware that we are
Indebted to the people of old Pom
peii, who were all smothered in the
First century of the Christian era,
for one of the most important indus
tries of our time—the canning busi-
Years ago, when the first ex
cavations were made in that buried
city, an American came upon sev
eral jars of figs. When they were
opened the contents were found to
be as fresh and palatable as when
they were put up eighteen centuries
before.
Investigations instituted on the
spot proved that the fruit had been
put into jars in a highly heated
state, and that an aperture for the
escape of steam had been left in the
lid, which, when it had served its
purpose, was sealed over with wax,
Yankee ingenuity caught the idea at
once, and the next year canning
factories were erpeted all over the
United States.— Chicago Herald.

v Tho Pmver of Gravitation.
From common experience we are
apt to hold exaggerated notions of
the power of gravity. Not until we
compare it with other attractive
forces, such as magnetism or elec
tricity, do we appreciate how trivial
it really is.
Tho fundamental experiments in
electricity and magnetism, known to
men for more than 2,000 years, of
lifting light bodies by rubbed amber
and iron filings by means of a load
stone. demonstrate at once their in
comparably greater power.
If, for instance, the attracting
body had tho moderate dimensions
of a hand specimen of amber or load
stone, we should require it to be of
so douse a material as to weigh
1,01)0,000,01)0 pounds instead of u few
pounds,; us usual, in order that its
gravitational attraction should equal
that of either of the two forces men
tioned. It is obvious therefore that
the imposing nature of tho force of
gravity, as equally compared with
other attractive forces, is due not to
its superior qualitative magnitude,
but to the enormous masses of the
bodies which exercUe it.
Thus, While it requires tho use of
the most delicate torsion balance to
demonstrate oven the mutual attrac
tion between a small and a large
sphere of lead, yet where enormous
musses, such as the earth, are con
cerned, the attraction exerted by one
hemisphere upon the other probably
exceeds n force of BOO pounds per
square inch over a surface whose
radius is 4,000 miles.—Eleotricity.
ClinrnoterlHtlc Costume* DUnppearlng.
Possibly B0 per cent, of tlie inter'

Llirhtnlnc’A Mugnetlo KfTVotn.
Tho mugnetic effects produced,by
lightning are offen very curious. A
chest containing a largo assortment
of knives, forks and other-cutlery
was, not many years ago, struck in
the house of a Wakefield tradesman,
and magnetism imparted to the
whole of the articles. Arago, in his
“Meteorological EssnyB,” speaks of a
shoemaker in Swabia whose tools
were thus treated, to his indescrib
able annoyance. 1 ‘He had to he con
stantly freeing his hammer, pinchers
and knives from his nails, needles
and awls, which were constantly get
ting caught by them as they lay to
gether on the bench.” The same
authority knew of a Genoese ship
which was wrecked near Algiers in
consequence of some pranks played
by lightning among Hie compasses,
the captain innocently supposing
that he was sailing toward the north
when as a matter of fact he was
steering due south.—Chambers’ Jour

Habit* of Public Singer*.
Do you, know how many famous
lady singers have contrived and still
contrive to strengthen their voices?
Mme. Sontag, by eating sardines;
Mme. Despierre, by drinking hot
water; Mme. Cruvelli, claret; Mme.
Patti, seltzer water; Mme. Nilsson,
beer; Mme. Cabol, by eating pears;
Mme. Trebelli, strawberries; Mme.
Borghi-Mamo, by taking snuff; Mme.
-Dorus-Gras, by eating cold meat.
Several singers of the male sex
also have indulged in similar freaks.
Sabatt. the Swedish tenor, used to
cat pickled cucumber; Berk, the bar
itone, hardly ever spoke for fear of
spoiling his voice; Kinderman was
in the habit of sucking prunes.—
