SUMMER IN PRANCE.
The Moat Delightful Country In tlrft
Wide World.
The people in France make a much
simpler affair of every-day life than wo,
and thus find more time for recreation,
which, indeed, is so much a matter of
course with them that there is no trace
of effort about their little diversions.
Where a garden is possible, it becomes
furnished with a table and chairs, a
much-used outdoor room, roofed with
“that dome some three miles high of
soft dappled gray and yellow cloud,
through the vast lattice work whereof
the blue sky peeps.” There in pleasant
weather the children play among the
lilac bushes and the mignonette; there
their elders resort with needlework and
newspapers; and there a simple meal
is often served. How well appreciated
are the public gardens of Paris any fine
day will show. Groups of happy peo-.
pie along the main walks, or in some
out-of-the-way nook of the lovely gar
dens, seem entirely at home as they
quietly make the most of their oppor
tunities for pleasure.
A pleasant feature of some French
houses is a porch before the entrance
door partly enclosed with glass. One
such vine-clad summer parlor, opening
into its tiny Paris garden, was a.most
refreshing contrast to the glaring,
dusty street from which it was all hid
den by a high wall. With its cool sum
mer furnishings, and large ornamental
plants in green tubs, it made a delight
ful reception room for visitors, while
a little round table with Its load of work
baskets and bookB bore evidence of the
family liking for thiB summer rendez
vous. In a pretty country house the
space- between two projecting wings
was roofed and fronted with glass. The
room thus gained was one of the most
interesting of its kind, being graced
with an extensive collection of the ferns
of the locality, and guarded by a pair
of curious Chinese idols holding back
the opened door on either side.
To the American in France it never
ceases to be a wonder where so much
leisure for out-of-door life is found,
particularly as it does not follow that
home duties are shirked to obtain it
Indeed, the proverbial French thrift is
in no way better shown than in the
readiness with which French women
take a share in the work of the house
hold, even in well-to-do families, and
this without loss of dignity, since cus
tom sanctions the keeping of few ser
vants in France. And but few servants
are needed, as no baking or laundering
is done at home, and polished floors do
away at once with dust, and that tear
ing-up and setting-to-rights process
which we call house-cleaning. It would
seem that they arrange their days, as'
well as their household affairs, wisely
in France, and are skilled in the happy
art of making the most of each one as
it passes. For, however busy the morn
ing hours may be, in most French
homes the long afternoon finds house
hold cares laid aside for a time, while
rest and quiet enjoyment take their
place.
Perhaps one secret of this wonderful
leisure may lie in the fact that French
mothers, strange as it may seem, do not
consider it one of the cardinal virtues
always to have cake in the house, and
it really was not evident that the chil
dren suffered at all in consequence. It
is, therefore, quite possible that the
i pleasant sight of mothers spending
whole happy afternoons with their chil
dren out in the open air may be partly
owing to this great lack of ambition in
cake making.
The little baskets which French chil
dren carry with them to their much
loved parks and gardens are usually
supplied with a generous piece of one of
the long French loaves of bread, and a
bar or two of sweetened chocolate. A
tew sons procure this quite sufficient
lunch, ns well as time for those pleasant
little expeditions—it may be only to
the nearest public garden—which they
like and so well know how to arrange
in sunny France.—American Agricul
turalist.

He Wanted Work and Fot It.
Frank Matthews has beer in Chicago
three weeks. He has answered all the
advertisements he has seen, but in no
Instance was he successful in securing
the coveted employment. Meanwhile
his slender savings had become all but
exhausted. Necessity proved the moth
er of invention, and, according to a
Chicago paper, he took a great board
about a foot square and marking on it
in big black letters, *

he fastened it on his breast and took
up his beat among the commission
houses. A great many people stopped
him, t’t none offered him work. He
walked several other down town streets,
the object of the same curlqsity. At
last one man gave him a situation.
Saved from Death by Grasthoppem.
James Clone, a farmer of Stonyford,
N. Y., believes grasshoppers saved him
from death by an enraged bull. Mr.
Clone was crossing a large, open field,
when the bull pursued him. The far
mer ran as fast as possible,' but the
bull steadily gained* on him, and when
nearly exhausted a small clump of
bushes was passed, from which arose a
large cloud of grasshoppers. The in
sects struck the infuriated animal in
the face and it turned aside. Mr.
Clone escaped from the field unharmed.
Clover InUltin Horseman.
An interesting illustration of the In
dian's clever horsemanship was given
by a young buck at Wilbur, Wash., a
few days ago. Carrying in his hand
an ordinary cup brimful of water, he
rode on a cayuse at full gallop the
length of the main street and returned
without spilling so much as a drop of
the water.
A MYSTERY OP IMPORTED BEER
Th« Mai banwlnfi While the Im
ports Are Decreasing.
It is regarded by some persons as
surprising that while the importations
of beer have fallen off considerably In
the last two years, the consumption of
imported beer has increased more than
fivefold, says a New York paper. Where
ten years ago there were, perhaps, a
dozen places in town at which import
ed beer was sold, there are now, prob
ably, six hundred. It has become, in
fact, a prime necessity in saloons of the
first class to have on draught imported
beer, and the multiplicity of such signs
is significant of the constantly increas
ing demand for the beverage. Some sa
loons keep as many as six or seven va
rieties of Imported beer; but at the
same time the receipt of barrels in
which it is contained—it is chipped in
barrels, not kegs—is constantly falling
off.
The explanation of the matter is one
which can with much greater candor be
given by a consumer than by a dealer
in the Imported article. The fact is
this: Very little of the so-called Im
ported beer sold In New York city sa
loons at present is really Imported. It
is domestic beer of a different kind
from that usually sold, and the differ
ence is to be found in the use of color
ing matter and in the larger infusion
of alcohl. It is alcohol that gives to
Imported beer Its strength and whlcft,
at the same time, preserves it during
the ocean voyage and the constant
changes of temperature to which it is
subjected in its transfer over 4,000
miles of land and sea. Genuine im
ported beer sent from Germany to the
United States contains a larger pro
portion of alcohol than the beer sold
and drunk in Germany. The distinctive
mark of American beers is that they
are what is called light, of amber color,
and have a bitter taste, supplied in
good beer by the hops. Kaiser beer,
Pilsener beer, and some few other va
rieties of German beer are light, but
the great majority of beers sold in Ger
many are dark, of a reddish-brown
color, somewhat resembling mahogany
in hue. Now many American brewers,
and especially those in the dty'of New
York, brew two varieties—dark and
light. The dark is heavy; the light la
frothy. The general demand of con
sumerles is almost universally for light
beer, but the dark has some admirers,
especially among those persons who
like a heavier article, sometimes pre
subscribed for medical use, and resem
bling, to some extent, porter in its nu
tritive properties. This dark beer, the
product of American brewers, costa
usually a little more than the light,
but it costs considerably less than the
imported article with the duty added
to it. So in many New York saloons
the so-called "imported” beer sold over
counters or at tables is really nothing
more or less than the ordinary Ameri
can dark beer, colored somewhat, and
with alcohol added. Knowledge of this
fact thoroughly explains the apparent
paradox that while the importations of
foreign beer have fallen off, the Bales
of foreign beer in New York are in
creasing. During the last two years
many American brewers have been ex
tending their trade by the manufacture
of a variety recommended to invalids
to whom, heretofore, porter has been
prescribed. -This variety of domestic
beer has largely superseded porter, and,
to some extent, ale, and the sale of it
appeals to be increasing. It is brewed
only by very large concerns, however,
and considerable -advertising work Is
necessary to get it on the market
Deerfield's Homan Lightning Bod.
Albert Lund Is a carpenter and boards
at the Union Hotel at Deerfield Corners,'
says Utica Observer. He was sitting on
the hotel veranda when the storm came
up last evening. Alter one of the
flashes Lund tipped over in his chair
and fell down like one dead. There
were half a dozen people who witnessed
the occurrence. When they picked him
up Lund was unconscious. For fifteen
minutes he was unable to speak. Peter
Schultz, proprietor of the hotel, walked
him around and resorted to various
measures to bring the young man to
his senses. His efforts were finally suc
cessful and Lund was soon able to
describe the sensations he had experi
enced. He said that they were not al
together unpleasant. The worst sensa
tion was after the effects passed away.
He felt sick at his stomach. Twice be
fore Lund has drawn in his direction
electricity from the clouds, and he be
gins to think that he might properly be
dubbed "the human lightning rod.”
On one of the previous occasions he was
dumping a pall of milk into a can. He
and the can were both knocked over.
Another time he was so violently
shaken that his garments were rent.
Buzzard Cauzez a Railroad Wreck.
A buzzard flew against the headlight
of a locomotive of a train near De
Funlak Springs, Fla., recently, and the
oil, flowing out, caught fire. The engi
neer reversed the lever so quickly that
the train jumped the track, injuring
several passengers. The fire was put
out and the body of the buzzard, thor
oughly cooked, was found in the lamp.
Mayzvllle People Shaken Up
At 1 o’clock the other day, Maysvllle,
Ky., was shaken up by an earthquake!
The shock lasted a minute and folks
were so scared they dug into the streets.
Clocks were stopped, dishes were rat
tled and crockery broken. Some folks
prayed who haven’t offered a petition
to the throne of grace in years.

8UNSTRUCK TREES.
They M Once part With Their Vitality
and Die
During the late extraordinary warm
spell the writer of this paragraph was
called upon to see a large sugar maple
tree that was supposed to have been
destroyed by a leak of the city gas main
at the root, but an examination showed
that the tree died, literally, from sun
stroke. It is strange that close ob
servers of trees are unable to see when
anything Is out of the common run of
things, and consequently note that
something Is going wrong. This auger
maple had been planted on the street
probably a quarter of a century ago,
and was about four feet in circum
ference, but the trunk was almost tri
angular, and yet this peculiarity
seemed to attract no attention. The
tree was simply triangular because on
three sides of the tree the bark and
wood' had evidently been destroyed
years ago, while the outer bark still
continued -to cover up the Injury, and
the.only live wood was on the angles of
the trunk. Only about one-third of the
trunk was practically alive. When the
exceedingly warm spell came It was im
possible for these limited ducts to sup
ply the moisture required for such a
large surface of foliage, and the tree,
therefore, literally died from Inability
to furnish the moisture required for
transpiration. It may always be taken
for- granted that when the trunk of a
tree, naturally cylindrical, takes an
angular form there' is something wrong
beneath the bark, and an examination
should at once be made. The flatter
portions will usually be found dead. In
this case the bark should be wholly
cut away from the dead portion and
the denuded part painted, in order to
check rotting away. In time the
healthy wood may grow over the wound
or lifeless part, and the life of the tree
be eventually saved.
TOOTH op a saurian.
Remarkable Specimen Found In n Mary
land iron Mine Recently.
Charles E. Coffin, of Mulrklrk, Md.,
has lately placed at the disposal of the,
Woman’s College Museum for study
and description. In connection with
other collections from the same region,
a remarkable saurian tooth, recently
exhumed from his Icon mines in Prince
Oeorge county. It measures three
Inches in length, and the herbivorous
dinosaur to which it belonged was not
less than twenty-live feet in length.
The dentine of the tooth, with its beau
tiful polish and characteristic trans
verse markings, is almost perfectly
preserved, and the delicate serrations
of its edges are as sharply’defined ad
when the reptile was Imbedded in the
lignitlc clays of the Potomac forma
tions. The mine from which the tooth
was excavated is the same as that from
which Professor O. C. Marsh, of Yale,
several years ago obtained a considera
ble collection. These remains were so
highly prised by this distinguished in
vestigator that several men and an en
gineer were employed for a number of
weeks in making excavations for the
•ame, says Baltimore American. Though
the Maryland dinosaurs were huge ani
mals in comparison with (reptiles now
living, they are but dwarfs beside some
of the gigantic species which inhabited
the Western 'North America in Jurassic
time. During a recent visit to the
Woman’s college, Professor Marsh re
marked that one of the fossil species
he discovered in the west could stand
on the lawn in front of Goucher hall
and eat with comfort from the roof.
This “terrible lizard’’ was 100 feet long,
and the largest animal ever known to
Inhabit the earth.
CANDY COOKED IN PAPER.
A Novel and Dalntjr Method Introduced
' at Boarding School.
The girls of one of our eastern col
leges have a novel method of candy
making, which deserves to be known
outside their magic circle—especially
as the results are particularly delicious.
They take a sheet of heavy, glazed
writing paper and turn up the four
edges to a depth of about three-fourths
of an inch. Into this box they pour a
cupful of white sugar and a very little
water, and set it on top of the stove.
One would think that the paper would
burn, but it does not. The sugar bolls
up charmingly and looks tempting
enough in its dainty receptacle. When
it is nearly done, a drop or two of fla
voring is added, or just before taking
from the fire some nut meats are
strewn over its surface. it is then
taken off the stove and set to float in
Us paper box in a bowl or basin of cold
water. When cold it should be brittle
and then the paper can be peeled off
and a dainty square of toothsome
candy is the reward. It is great fun to
make and will surprise your friends if
they chance to see it boiling in its paper
box.
Highland Mary.
The statue of.Burns’ Highland Mary
is to be erected at Dunoon. More than
100 years ago Burns flirted with Mary
Campbell, to whom he was faithless,
for he was already married to Jean Ar
mour. However, he wrote beautiful
verses about his Highland Mary, hence
the statue. It is one of the paradoxes
of human nature that this monument
celebrates not the woman, who would
have remained obscure had aha never
met Burns, but the poet who amused
himself with a flirtation, and with
writing verses about it
Sign* That Ants Can Talk.
It is believed that ants can really
talk. To test the matter a scientist
killed one. The eye-witnesses of the
murder hastened away and laid their
heads together with every ant they met,
the result being that the latter imme
diately turned back and fled. -
AUTOMATIC TELEPHONES.
Callander's System. Which Connect* With
out the Aid of the "Hello'' GlrL
Romaine Callender, an electrical en
gineer, who haa his office and labora
tory m the Decker Building, Union
Square, the other day exhibited and
gave a working demonstration there of
an entirely new system of telephone
exchange which he has Invented and
patented here and abroad, says, the
New York Tribune. The apparatus ex
hibited forms a complete telephone ex
change In working order, Of a kind in
tended for use In a small city. To ex
plain in detail the method of communi
cation between subscribers, a number
of ordinary telephone transmitters and
receivers have been placed on the walls
of the room In which the apparatus Is
shown, and these instruments are con*
nected with the apparatus of the ex
change proper, In the center of the
room. The whole system of Intercon
nection at the exchange Is automatic,
the services of operators there not be
ing required. Subscribers make their
own connections automatically by the
use of a simple device attached to their
transmitting and receiving instru
ments. By this device when a sub
scriber desires to connect himself with
another subscriber he turns two knobs,
moving Indicator arms over two num
bered dials, forming the proper com
bination of figures. For Instance, If
15 were the number desired, the sub
scriber would move one indicator arm
to l and the other to 6, and within
twelve seconds, Mr. Callender says, the
bell on the calling subscriber's instru
ment would ring to announce the con
nection with the subscriber at 16. The
apparatus In which the connection la
made at the central station consists of
a circuit selector for receiving calls and
individualizing portions of the appar
atus to the celling subscriber; a nu
merical receiver for registering the
number of the telephone with which
connection is desired; a numerical
separator for automatically classifying
the "impulses” of the call; a numeral
lzer for totalizing the numbers regis
tered by the receivers and for selecting
the telephone with which connection is
desired; a signaling track for signaling
subscribers when a connection Is made
or a telephone Is in use; progressive
switches, mechanisms held under the
control of a signaling subscriber until
the connection has been effected, and a
connector, by which subscribers are in
terconnected. All this mechanism ap
pears as an orderly arrangement of
wires, keys, brushes and various other
parts, which are minutely adjusted and
bewilderingly numerous. Mr. Callen
der, who is an Englishman, hopes that
a stock company will be formed to
manufacture the apparatus apd oper
ate it. He says he has already had
negotiations tending toward that re
sult. The exhibition of the apparatus
will continue for a month.
DRESSED AS A BOY.
Mother of a Girl Who Bad Eloped At
tacks Her Daughter's Companion*
Walter Connell and Minnie Goodpas
ture, a young couple who eloped from
Auburn, 111., were captured in the tim
ber In Ball township. The girl, who
Is but 15 years old, was attired In a
boy’s suit and had her hair cut and had
been roughing It with Connell for sev
eral days. The young man was ar
rested on a charge of abduction. Dur
ing the trial the mother of the girl,
who was almost crazed with grief, at
tempted to assault the prisoner with
an umbrella, and the audience, which
was in sympathy with her, began to
talk, of treating Connell to a dose of
tar and feathers. Connell was bound
over to the grand jury and the boy’s
family furnished bond. Connell and
the girl are members of prominent fam
ilies, and there is much excitement over
the case.
Huxley and Tyndall.
Tyndall was, I think, one of the
earliest members of the Alpine Club,
but he seceded after an unfortuhate dis
pute, which arose in connection with
his own unsuccessful attempts on the
Matterhorn, and ' Mr. Whymper’a
ascent of that peak, and It was not till
three or four years before his death
that he again attended one of the an
nual dinners of the club, where he and
Professor Huxley1 were among tha
guests of the evening. Both orated,
but .n the .particular art of after-dinner
speaking Tyndall was not the equal of
his brilliant rival, and his labored and
rather egotistical utterances contrasted
unfavorably with the delicate 'persi
flage of Huxley, who, by the way,
chaffed him unmercifully on that oc
casion as being one of the goats and not
one of the sheep—the goats who
climbed the arid rocks; while the
sheep—among whom Huxley reckoned
himself—browsed contentedly on the
rich pastures below.
