Philip A. White, who died in Brook lyn recently, was a negro, a millionaire, j a cultivated gentleman, and one of the best chemists in the two cities. Nearly half a century ago he established a wholesale and retail drug store in the "Swamp" in New York City, and later built'a largo store and warehouse in Gold street. Here he grew rich and achieved a wide reputation in the trade. For many years he has been prominent in educational circles in Brooklyn. There are few better private libraries than that collected by the late Dr. White, as he was always called.

He looked very sad ami hopeless, and the court was much moved by his contrite appearance. 1'Have you ever been sentenced to imprisonment?" the Judge asked.

Sometimes laige parties rode down to a public garden in the country, or a tavern by tho .'eaide, to drink tea. In most of the chief towns there were held once in two weeks '"assemblies" or balls. At these assemblies there were stately minuets and couutry dances, and much money was lost and wou at card tables in a room prepared for fashion able gambling, which was then ono of the recognied amusements of good society.

A bar- ber, on appeal, butted against this old ' statutory chestnut tho other day, and , this is what Chief Justice Paston said: ! "We are now asked to say that shaving is a work of 'necessity,' aud therefore within the exceptions of the act of 17D4. It is perhaps as much a nocessity as wahiug the face, taking a bath, or per forming any other act of personal clean liness. A man may shave himself, or have his servant or valet shavo him, on the Lord's day, without a violation of the act of 17il. But tho keeping open of his place of business on that day by a barber and following his worldly em ployment of shaving his customers is quite another matter, and while wo con clude that it may be a great convenience to many persons, we are not prepared to say, as a qnostion of law, thr.t it ia an act of necessity within tho meaniug of tho act of 17H4. Wo do not make tho law; our duties are limited to interpret ing it. and we feel ourselves bound by tlie construction which our predecessors have placed upou the act for nearly a century. " In the :ia I'uc'tory. Tho Electrirlan tells of a new appli cation of the electric current in glass factorio-. When a sheet of window glass is made it is blown into a cylin drical shape in the iirt instance; and the cylinder, before being cut down longitudinally, and allowed to unbend on a llat surface so as to form tho sheet, has its ends cut off. This was former ly dono by wrapping rouud the part to bo cut a piece of white-hot glass fresh from tho melting-pot. By the new plan tho separation is made far more neatly by placing round tho glass a thin wire, and aftei wards causing an electric current to traverse that wire. The metal becomes red hot, is removed, and a drop of cold water applied to the heated surface, with the result that it cracks all round whero tlie wire has touched it. A ready plan for cuttiug oil the bottom of bottleshas long been iu vogue, which consists in tying round the part where the separation is to bo made a piece of string soaked in spirit. This is afterwards ignited aud a drop of water applied, as iu the case just de scribed. A I'uMIsIut'h 'J rick. Wagner, when a young man, wrote a sonata which had a fair success, but in after life be made every effort to sup pieis it. Going to tho publishor lie said : "Have you any copies of that misera ble thing'still unsold?" "Yes," was tho reply; " I have quite a number of them in stock." "Send them to mo at once, with a bill,'" said the comiwser. A thousand copies were soon afterward delivered at his door. The bill was a big one. but it was paid, and Wagner thought he had done with tho thing. What was his snrpiise, then, at re ceiving two or thrtHJ months later on, another consignment, this time of live bundled copies. "I thought you had onlv a thousand of the-e things," he pro tested. "That was all I had in stock," explained the dealer; "but these have been returned by my agents, to whom I wrote that you wished to have the sonata suppressed." Wagner winced; bnt thero was nothing for it but to pay the bill. And thereafter, whene'ver business was dull with this crafty pub lisher, a few hundred copies of the son ata would be struck off on shop-worn paper, and delivered at the composer's door, with a memorandum to the effect that they had just come back from re mote places where they had been sent for sale.

N"W v,,rk Arrliliwfs liarlnu Srhrin There seems to be no limit to tl Kclipmo. 10 I ixmiijUMs oi an iiiiut mi in iiciii wjijuii I characteiize-t tlie era of loftv construc l.i.i !.:...... i .:...: i.:..u tion upon wbi -h the country has ea- iered within the last few vear.s. New York City, from the necessities of her situation and the limited area of her iusmes secuon, uas oeen uie leaner in the evolution of loftv buildings, though other commercial centers are following closely the example set by that place. A striking illustration of what there is every reason to believe may yet be accomplished in this direction was given at the receut exhibition of the Architectural League in New York Citv. Bruce Price, a well-known architect, presented for inspection on that occasion the plans for a structure 442 feet in height, divided into '.12 stories and covering a lot only 7;" feet square. With the present progress made " '.'"''""K CG u,1(1 nasonry theier no diftVulty whatever in the way of MMiHtriietinir such a buiIdinL' as the ono I)roposed. The foundation must cover tho entire space occupied, and in New York tho bed rock frequently comes near enough to tho surface to affoitl !; ' '-n thtt " ot th case, piling must bo used, a:id upon ihU a' Ulick bed of cement concrete aj,i .1kivo this bed iion crib work ! vould be laid, and u. on this tho super structure would be raised.

The walls themselves will bo of gran ite, bsit-k, marble, and terra cotta and will in no case bo called upon to bear any other strain than their own weight. Hy this scheme the masonry will be far inoro massive, and the spaco occu pied will not interfere with the availa ble tiro.- loom even in the lower stories. Tho elevator system will be grouped in tho center of tho building arouud B 011111 B EH E 1 M H B 00BOi 1 1 1 I 8 8 0 e ee d e e b 9IDII I B BHIBli n ft w r w h B JU- -CF an octagonal core or well. Thero will bo eight elevators, one of which will be especially devised and reserved for the tramqiortation of heavy safes and othor freight. Three will run between the first and tenth stones. Two ill run to the twentieth story, not stop ping between tho first and tenth, and two will run to the top of tho building, only .stopping above the twentieth lloor. The accompanying illustration will servo toghe an idea of tho external appearance of the proposed structure. While leally built of steel and iron, it w ill look like a masiive aggregation of marb'e. granite and brick, handsomely ornamented. Xo idea is given a to the cost of such a structuro beyond tlie statement that tho average ex petite per lloor would bo not more than a tliinl of tho cost of a building con structed on the ordinary plan, taking iiiio cons:deration, that is. the lental value of the enhanced space obtained for occupation. A I'nlj ueiiun Legend. Tura, coming fiom over seas, found himself in a land named Otea, and leaving bis canoe, journeyed inland. Traveling through the dense forest, he saw fairies sitting in tho (lowers oi the limbing plants and swinging on the llianas which ti ailed from tho high lxmghs across the vistas of tho wood. 'Ih-'so faiiies were curiously shaped beings, having small heads and huge bodies, while their hands and feet were attached to limbs so short that they seemed as if extruding from their bodies. Tura had brought with him the sticks wherewith lire is pro due, d by friction, and he proceeded to kindle a lire and to cook some food, much to the astonishment of tho faiiies. who had always consumed their food in its natuial state. Tura fell in love with one of the fairy women and married her. His wife reciprocated his affection aud they lived happily together: but one day vhen the elliu -Mue was combing out her husband's hair, she suddenly cried out, "Oh, Tu i a. what is thi white hair among the black ones V Ho told her that it was a sign of age and approaching decay, the forerunner of death. Then his wife wept bitterly and refused to be comforted. It is a touching story, the sudden surprise andgiiefof this child of the immortals on her discovery of that which to us poor sous of clay is so common and obtrusive a fact. Tho old li gend has given rise to a prover bial saving. "The weeds of Tura," as a syr.o iviiioKs expression for gray hair. Loiiyman'.i Mayaziie.

A cough or cold is a spy which has stealthily come inside the lines of health and is there to dis aSSSSSlb cover some vulner- able point in the fortification of the constitution which is guarding your well-being. That point discovered the spy reports it to the enemy on the outside. The enemy is the changeable winter climate. If the cold gets in, look out for an attack at the weak point.

I had a fullness after eating and a heavy load in the pit of my stomach. I suffered fre-' quently from a Water Brash of clear matter. Sometimes a deathly Sick. nes at the Stomach would overtake me. Then again I would have the lerrible pains of Wind Colic. At such times I would try to belch arid could not. I was working then for Thomas McHenry, Druggist, Cor. Irwin and Western Ave., Allegheny City, Pa., in whose employ I had been for seven years. Finally I used August Flower, and after using just one" bottle for two weeks, was en-l-rely relieved of all the trouble. I can now eat things I dared not touch before. I would like to refer you to Mr. McHenry, for whom I worked, who knows all about my condition, and from whom I bought the medi cine. I live with my wife and family at 39 James St., Allegheny City.Pa.
