Origin of Ice Cream.
Many barrels of ice-cream does the
average man swallow with never a
grateful thought of that benefactor of
mankind who invented the stuff in the
first place.
Bacon knew that by melting snow
with salt congealation would occur in
in any ceircum;acent liquid. But to him
it was no more than an inedible, an ex-
traordinary scientific fact. Further than
that this noble seer never saw.
It was a Frenchman who, in all his
humble namelessness, preparing for the
Due de Chartres in 1744, a snow -like
dish, was the originator of ice-cream. .A
century and a half before the like was
known in England epicures in France
were partaking of ices and aerated
drinks, and their start is not laid even
in France, for the French are said to
have caught the trick from travellers
returning from the sherbets of the Turlcs
and Persians,—Boston Transcript.

Sex and the Bee.
At one time the bees were male and
female in equal numbers. The irresponsi-
ble male buzzed about, simply getting
his own living, marrying and dying. The
responsible female not only got her own
living, but that of her children. Some-
how, by and by, they came to see the
the advantage of communal effort, and,
just as women say to one another now,
"If you'll wash the dishes Pll wipe 'em,"
one feminine bee said to the other, "P11
be mother if you'll get the living." It
was a bargain, and the accommodating
females took drones in to board.
The queen of a beehive does not rule,
she lays eggs. She does not mind the
babies. She does not even do her own
digesting, let alone getting the food. The
attendants that surround her feed her
with bee milk, secreted by glands in
their heads. She has to be fed continual
ly, for at certain periods she has the
power of producing from two thousand
to three thousand eggs a day, twice her
own weight—four times, indeed, for
more than half her weight is eggs. In her
lifetime a prolific queen will lay. fifteen
hundred thousand eggs.

THE COST OF FIRING A CANNON.
Modern naval warfare is one of the
most costly things that can be imagined,
A.nd a combat between two fleets means
the expenditure of vast sums of money.
Some idea of the high cost can be ar-
rived at by taking a Japanese warship
like the Ieasuga or Nisshin and ealel-
Th/l ing the number of shots she would
discharge, say, at Port Arthur. The
first named ship carries four cannon
which cost 8300,000 each. One of these
gmn can fire two shots a minute, and
every shot costs $400; thus in five min-
utes 'these four cannon can discharge
forty bombs at a. cost of $16,000. The
smaller cannon cost each $18,000, and
it is estimated that in five minutes the
twelve cannon could discharge shot to
the value of nearly $35,000.—Leslie's

Take all's Family Pills for Constipation,
The Religions of Japan.
Upon the restoration of the present
Japanese Emperor to power in 1868, it
was deckled by the elder statesmen—the
advisers to whose farsighted policy much
of the present success of Japan in her
struggle with 'Russia must be attributed
—that it would be better to restore the
ancient Shinto faith and get rid of Bud-
hism as much as possible. In this way,
Shintoism became the official national
religion of Japan, and its rites are fol-
lowed in all cases where the government
is responsible for the celebration, though
the common people are, as a rule, Budd-
hists, while many of the nobles are fol-
lowers of Buddha at heart. In other
words, there is no strict line of demar-
cation between the two faiths, and it is
questionable whether the average Japan-
ese individual could tell you to which
sect he considered himself allied.
The Emperor is the head of the Shin-
to religion, and is himself worshopped as
being directly descended from the gods,
and every Japanese subject pays him
homage as such head, but this does not
interfere with the subject's worship of
multifarious other deities of the wind,
the ocean, fire, food and pestilence; of
mountains and rivers, and of special ob-
jects in nature—more than eight hund-
red
undred in. all. It was very simple to add
to all these the gods of the Hindus when
Budddhisni, was introduced from China,
through Corea, in the sixth century of
the Christian era, but it was not so sim-
ple to displace them at the command of
the statesmen. So the Buddhist priests
still flourish, though shorn of the power
and grandeur which were theirs under
the rule of the Shoguns.—William Din-
widdie's :lelanehuria letter 'in Leslie's
Weekly.
Great Guns of 016.
We are aceustomed to think of large
cannon as a very recent invention. Yet
as long ago as 1543 a certain Ralph Hog-
ge, of Buckstead, in Sussex, cast large
guns, and a pupil of his, Thomas John-
son, in 1595, made for the Earl of Cum-
berland "42 cast pieces of great ordnance
of iron." These weighed six thousand
pounds—three tons—apiece, and we are
told, showed very smooth, fine workman-
ship. All the smelting was done with
charcoal, of which it took three tons to
smelt each ton of iron. Also all the ore
was carried from the mine on pack
horses, which took a load of about three
hundred pounds each. The immense
amotmt of labor and consequent expense
may be imagined.

"Yes, ma'am," said Mary, in mild and

In the morning she again visited the

The First Starches.
Starch originated. in Flanders. It was
introduced into England with the big
ruff, in the time of Queen Elizabeth. It
was like our starch of to -day ,except
that it was made in colors, red, yellow,
green and blue. The effect of this was
to tint delicately the white linen to
which the starch night be applied.
Before Queen Elizabeth's time ruffles
were made of fine holland, which requir-
ed no stiffening. Then the ruffs of cam-
bric came, and these must of necessity be
starched. It is recorded that when the
Queen had ruffs made` of lawn and cam-
bric for her own royal wearing there
was no one in England could tell how to
starch thein, but the Queen made special
inquiries for some woman that could
starch, and Mrs. Guilham, wife of the
royal coachman, Was the first starcher.
In 1564 a Flanders woman, Frau Van
der Plasse, came to London and estab-
lished there a school for the teaching of
starching. The school succeeded, and the
Flanders frau got rich. She charged £5
a lesson and an extra twenty shillings
for a receipt for the making of starch
out of wheat flour, bran and roots.

ALPINE FATALITIES.
Although Early, the List of Casualties
is Already a Long One.
The gravest of the accidents on the
Higher Alps has been that of the Ober-
Gabelhorn. This great conn of reddish
rook, familiar to all habitues of Zermatt,
is not considered in these latter days a
difficult ascent, provided it is climbed
by experts with reasonable precautions.
Its rocks are steep, but they are also us-
ually firm, and to the best of our recol-
lection they have never hitherto been
the scene of any mountaineering fatality.
In this instance a party of Austrians
were making the ascent from Zermattt,
roped two and two, as is often the cus-
tom on rocks, one tourist and one guide
on each rope. Dr. Demelius was in
charge of the guide Tembel, and was
leading on the rope, when suddenly a
great mass of rock which was serving
as a foothold, gave way beneath his feet,
carrying him and his luckless guide down
with it to their death. The accident was
thus closely similar to the well-known
catastrophe on the Rothorn ten years
ago, by which the guide Diner lost his
life.
Tbe sudden collapse ' of a foothold is
one of those rare events which the moun-
taineer must on occasions be prepared to
chance, and against which, perhaps, no
vigilance can guard. An accident of a
quite different type was that by which
in mid-July Miss Goodman lost her life.
She was climbing with a party on the
rope, when she slipped and fell. The rope
broke, and the fall had fatal results. It
is feared that this fatality was due
to the employment of second-class cord.
Otherwise it is mostexplicable, as
the cases in which a rop of good quality
has parted under the stt ss of a fall are
few and far between. In the great and
ever -memorable catastrophe on the Mat-
terhorn by which Lord F. Douglas and
Messrs. Hudson, Hadow and Croz lost
their lives, the rope which broke was a
weak and inferior one, which the guide
.ought never to have used. The type of
rope approved by the Alpine Club can be
trusted in most emergencies if it be pro-
perly used.—London Mail.

related of a pioneer Methodist named
Valentine Cook, who was a power in his
day, and who got off many odd sayings.
"Once there woa a terrible upheave'
of nature in the dffape of an earthquake,
and Dr. Cook woke up, finding his bed
jostling and turning. Ile believed the end
of the world near and made a bee line
for the door. His good wife, in great
agitation, called., `Valentine, wait for

"No, my de, he answered. `When

bye," and out he door he shot.

New Shapes in Shoes.
When questioned as to the new lasts

next spring and summer wear, E. 0.
Krentler, the Detroit last manufacturer,
said: "In men's shoes the tendency is
toward a common sense last with
straighter lines and a broader toe. For
a stylish effect some shoe manufacturers
axe making samples with considerable
swing to the outs'ole, thus giving the
swing appearance without altering the
form and comfort of the vamp.
"In women's goods, low heels and nar-
row toes are wanted. Just a few years
ago all the better grade of women's
shoes carried high Heels, now the call is
all the other way, end simply because
the high heels have been eopied in the
lower grades of footwear and become
common. While the trade does not call
for the toothpick toes and razor edges,
under these terms we have had orders

The Cost of War.
In ..ie last 200 years France has spent
£993,000,GJ0 in war. Even Belgium
spends every year 46,000,600f. on her
army. In less than 300 years Great Bri-
tain alone has spent £1,357,000,000 in
war. At Bannockburn 135,000 men fought
and 38,000 were killed or wounded. Italy
spends every year 14,000,000 lire (£5G0,-
000) on her army and navy. The French
army costs every year 675,000,0001.; the
navy, 209,000,0001. The peace footing in
the Russian army calls for the services
of 170,000 horses. The army of Bolivia
costs the people of that impoverished
country £360,000 a year. At Gravelotte
320,000 men were engaged, of whom 48,-
000 were killed or wounded.

A King Nine Times.
The most b'etitled monarch in the
world. is Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus-
tria. Without his Inmperial crown, which
is the identical tiara of Charlemange, he
nine times a king, take a grand duke,
once a grand prince, once a prince, four
times a margrave and the multitude of
his titles as count and so forth is past
enumeration.
The total of his titles of sovereignty
and nobility exceeds a hundred. In eau.,
dition as King of Hungary he bears the
title of "Most Apostolic," which •is one
of the four honors bestowed by the R:11.e.
Were the sovereigns of Europa to meet
in. a council, there is no doubt thae the
premier place would be conceded to Em-
peror Francis—alike ' by reason of his
hereditary prestige and his representa-
tion of the ancient Holy Roman Empire.

In all probability the first cup of tea

the site of Buckingham Palace. The rea-

The first pound of tea which calve to

by the Earl. of Arlington, in Holland,
and was brought over by him; and at
this time the Earl resided at Arlington
House, which . was pulled .down to make
room for Buckingham Hotise, sines then
become Buckingham Falai*.
