The bowl Is bHart shapld and of bright gold, or. cynical sugge.tinn, of gilt. The bandle is a Silver arrow, its barbed point piercing tbe center of the heart and ita haft entwined with forgetmeuota. The ipoon is intended primarily for an en gagement token, but it can be inflicted, in one dozen lots, on a bride, or used aa a pledge of affection on any auiiabia provocation. Another new souvenir freak is the "old oaken bucket" spoon, a "sou venir of childhood." The bowl depicts the bottom of the well, with the bucket floating on tbe water. The chain runs np through tbe month of the well, at the shoulder of the spoon, and np the bandle to an oak tree at tbe top. New York bun hs4 Whll. A.lMp. The Bath (Me.)

Boston Ulobe. Th. I'rlc. of Coal. A gentleman who has given much thought to the price of coal said to we: "The owners of anthracite coal hope that when householders return to town in Oc tober they will lay in their full supply of coal for the winter. Now. if household ers do this, they will simply play into the hands of the coal barons and make the price of coal higher. The sensible thing to do is to purchase from hand to mouth instead of tilling their cellars. "That would result in the large com panies beiug compelled to carry along great quantities of coal and would gradu ally reduce the price of this much needed article. Tlie earnings and the income of people nowadays are on the decrease, aud an excellent way to curtail house hold expenses is to force down tbe price of coal to the level it ought to reach."

Once in fifteen year the earth in ita motion about the sun passes throngb the plane of the rings of Saturn, o that they are turned edgewise toward the earth. Tlie rings are so thin that they then disappear altogether from sight in an ordinary telescope, while in the more powerful one the planet ap pears to have a fine needle thrust through it. The appearance of tbe rings at the timea of disappearance and reappearance is of special interest to astronomers, since it furnishes information with regard to the nature of these appendages not other wise attainable.
