ALUMINUM CAR TICKETS.
They Are in tree on a Miehignn street
Railway and Are Quite Popular.
The latest use; for aiu ninunt is for
street ear tickets, and .it' must he con-
ceded that the metal is !singularly adapt-
ed for the purpor•e. A Michigan street
railway has j'ist made` its drat isue of
these light and ornamental tokens,
which are about the - size of a silver
quarter -dollar. One is krpund, for ordi-
na fare; the other octagonal, for child -
re i The adult's ticket 'is sold by the
railroad company to the public at the
rape of six for a quarter, and the child's
ticket at the rate of ten for a quarter.
The company does not allow its em-
ployes, either conductors or motormen,
to sell tickets to the public, but disposes
of them in,$10 lots to theiseveral store-
keepers, who handle them exclusively.
This method of distributilig the tickets
overcomes to a ceytain extent the diffi-
culties which have always attended the
sale of tickets by employes in connec-
tion with the receipt of cash fares. The
aluminum ticket has also the great
advantage of requiring no; cancellation.
A soon as the ti k s turned in by
c et are
y
the public to the railroad company they
are done up in packages and sold again.

Shade for Stook.
Stock of all kinds are not, unlike mane
•kind in some respects,and seek the shade
whenever possible during the extreme
heat of summer. To gratifythis desire,
shade should be providewherever
practicable, and the cheapest manner of
doing this is through the medium of
shade trees. One or two should be set
out in each pasture, and (be protected by
a, fent until thoroughly established.
If the field be tilled, set the trees along
the south line, selecting' those of rapid
growth and spreading branches. If they
be fruit trees, they should be trimmed to
a height of at least seven feet, and theei}}
allowed to branch out. While the treat
are growing, it would be simply humane
to provide a temporary shelter of some
kind, such as setting a few posts, and
covering with poles upon which are
thrown branches of evergreens, or evda
limbs of oak or other trees in full leaf.
This will afford a useful shelter, and if
located upon a knoll or other naturally
poor portion of the field, it will thor-
oughly enrich the soil. `:. By changing
its position yearly, various portions of
the field will be benefited. All this
takes but a little time, and can be done
when other work is not pressing. By
boarding up, late in the summer, the
side from which the prevailing winds
blow, a fair protection from the chilling
blasts wilt be obtained; and the stock
will return you the cost. E '

But, although there is no longer any
danger of war from the j foolish procla-
mation of an unlawful blockade, the
?moral consequencesof the incident will
be lasting and momentous. The eager -
nese of the French government, which,
in this respect. did but reflect the temper
of the French people to do England an
ill turn, has been unmistakably revealed,
and a reciprocal feeling of distrust and
animosity has been kindled -in the Eng-

Public sentiment is a tremendous
force in a country like England, where
the people practically rule. The day
may come when France will find that

regard to Germany is an outcome of the

of harm,far outweighs any gain of terri-

equaiec oy none on earth. Cold air be-
ing hea %vier to the square hush than
warm air, the coke air, when c• ,ening in
contact with it warm current fc ,ni the
south, always predominates, forcing the
warm air into the upper currents.
The cause of cyclones is the meeting
of a headwind from the north with a
"headwind from the south. Thi meet
like two vast areatus of hien. The pre -s-
- sure at the point of tiietrtfng is so great
that the air, by compression, becomes
heavier to the square inch than wood
or the human body, hence either one
wiil float in the s:one manner that
wood will float iii water—it floats he
cause it is lighter to the square inch
than water. Place water m an ordinary
wash bowl and remove the plug and
it will be observed that in passing out
the water forms a circular reaction. Air
being a liquid does the same in passing
either upwards or downwards; hence the
funnelshaped spout of the cyclone center.
When two immense bodies of air coming
from opposite directions meet, the only.
egress is upwards and sideways, and in'
passing upwards it forms the funnel the
same as water sassing out of a washbowl
downwards. The theory that a cyclone
forms a vacuum t to is absurd. Withdraw
air from a glass jar with an air pump,
and a feather within the vacuum formed
will drop with the same velocity as lead,
or, on the other hand, you can compress
air until it is heavier to the square inch
than wood, in which case wood•will float
in the air. The lifting power of acycl;one
is caused (1) by the compression + or
density of the air, and (2) by its velocity.
Combining the power of density with
that of velocity, which occurs at the cen
ter or funnel, no power can resist it. The
feeling of suffocation or difficulty in
breathing when near the track of a
cyclone is caused from the oompression
of air. -,--Minneapolis Tribune.

Yes, death is at the bottom of the cup,
And everyone that lives must drink it up;
And yet between the sparkleat the top
And the black loos whore lurks that bitter drop
There swims enough good liquor, heaven knows,
To esee our hearts of all our other woes.

Good Cooks and Happiness.
The cook of the future will come in
the morning and leave again in the even-
ing when her work is done, to secure
greater independence than she can have
when living under her employer's roof ;
or even if central kitchens for the cook-
ing of dinners were` to be established
generally (such institutions could only
supply the needs of a certain number of
people in towns), cooks will always be
wanted ; there will always be abundant
employment for capable persons. One of
the chief causes of friction between mis-
tress and maid would be removed. The
cook would no longer work in the dark,
harassed by the want of knowledge she
has had no 'means of obtaining, and
which she is at present so unjustly blamed
for not possessing.
A good cook is a treasure a mistress
rarely wishes to offend. How often does
one hear a woman say something like
the following, after recounting faults of
a most serious character on the part of
her cook: "Still, I cannot afford to part
with her, for she is a far better cook than
I can get elsewhere. She satisfies my
husband better than any we have had ;
and you know how difficult he is to
please. There is no peace if his dinner
does not please him." -
w
A great cause of friction
beteen hus-
band and wife would also be removed.
"If a woman is at the mercy of the cook,
and she is not good," as a writer 1 have
already quoted has remarked, '`her table
i
will soon become intolerable. Bad soup,
,
soft and flabby fish, meat burnt outside
and raw within. The husband will soon
fly from the Barinecide feast, and take
refuge in his club, where he will not
only find food he can digest, but at the
same time fly from the domestic discord
that usually accompanies ill -cooked
visuals at home."
Bad cookery may seem a siiiaIl thing
in comparison with other evils, but the
results are as dire as those. that followed
the proverbial lost nail in the horse's
shoe—wasted incomes, impaired health,
drinking habits, family discord. . Bad
cookery, more often than not, causes
• •+.+ little rift within the lute" which,
and by, makes the music of married
mute. "Whom God hath joined in
isatrimony ill -cooked joints and i11 -
cooked potatoes have often put asunder."

Floral Flytrap.
"Co-ne inside a minute," said'a Fourth
avenue dealer in pianos yesterday after-
noon. "I have discovered the greatest
flytrap on earth, and I want to show it
to you." He led the way to an instru-
ment at the rear of the store, on which
was a ne ~•paper. On the paper had
been placed a bunch of sweet peas. At
least 1000 dead flies were lying on the
paper in the immediate vicinity or in
the bunch of flowers. "I threw . these
here by chance," he continued, "and in
about ten minutes I happened to notice
that every fly that alighted on the
flowers died in a very short time." Even
as he spoke a number of the insects
which had stopped to suck the deadly
sweet had toppled over dead. They
alighted with their usual buzz, stopped
momentarily, quivered in their legs, flap-
ped their wings weaklyseveral tinges
and then gave up the ghost.—Louisville

Little Maid Content.
Once there was a little maiden, who was very sweet
and fair,
Who had eyes like purple pansies, and long, sunny,
flowing hair ;
And 'twos said thiough all the country she was loved
beyond compare.
Yet she had no wealth or dower ; just a lovely, smil-
ing face,
Just a kindly, gentle nature,and a c aiden's winsome
grace ;
But at times she longed for jewels, tb wear silk and
costly lane.
And it chanced she lay a -sleeping in a garden once
in June,
And the sunlight kissed her tresses, and the breezes
sang a tune,
And the roses were half jealous all the summer
afternoon.
And she dreamed of wondrous treasures, of a castle
by the sea,
Of a prince who oame to claim her, and whose praise
seemed melody,
Like the music of the waters flowing on delight-
fully.
And she longed for time to pass her like a sudden
spirit flown,
From her youth to vanish quickly, and to be a wo-
man grown,
That the prince might kneel before her, and might
claim her for his own.
And in part her wleh was answered, for there came
to her one day,
One who offered wealth and station, and indisput-
able sway ;
Tho' she had no love to give him, yet she did not
turn away.
But I've heard a ead eyed woman stands alone at
elm of day,
And her heart is grieved and troubled, let men
praise her as they may,
For her happiness has left her—taken wings and
flown away !
And I think, 0 friends, 'twere better, in this journey
here of ours,
Not to dream of power and riches, nor of stately'
domes and towers,
But to live in sweet oontentntent, like the birds and
flowers.

travelled a long dietance."
Whiffler—" They tell me Sharpleigh made

did he do it?" Staples—"Cornered. the Bos-

The girle.whoee eyes are dazzled by an in-
gagement ring can't be expected to see many

said she's atone blind.
" What ie the difference between humor
and nonsense ?" said the inquisitive man,
" Humor," replied the candid mar, " is re-
presented by the joke you make yourself ;
nonsense is represented by the juke some'
other fellow makes."
—" Mr. Gingham," said Taper, " I would
like a fortnight's absence to attend the wed-
ding of a dear friend." " It must be a very
dear friend, indeed, to make you want that
much time. Who is it?" " Well, sir, after
the ceremony she will be my wife."

Cementing the RuS$ian Empire.
The Czar of Russia shows undoubted
sagacity in adopting the best physical
means to hold together his vast empire.
He has pushed thin transcaspian military
railway southeastward until it has almost
reached the frontiers of British India and
China, the two Powers most likely to
dispute with him the acquisition of
further dominion in Central Asia. - Hav-
ing thus.assured the safety of the Rus-
sian position in the southeast, he has
undertaken a more stupendous work its
beginning the construction of an un-
broken line of railway to connect
European Russia with a port on the
Pacific Ocean. The whole length of the
Asiatic or main Siberian line is 4800
miles. The estimated cost is $200,000,000.
The work, which is now .progressing
from both enols towards the center. is to
he completed in about ten years. There
will - then be a stretch of railway, all
located upon Russian territory. about
6000 miles in length, holding European'
Russia and Asiatic Russia firmly to-
gether with a continuous band of steer.
Until the proposed railway running
north and south to connect the two
Americas shall have been built there will

did to any other fellow. And she's such a

O'Dooley—Yis, he ate half a dozen green
cucumbers an' thin swallowed a quart o'
ripe tomattussee on top o' thim, an' the red

O'Kief—I hear poor Hamilton has become

Conquests of Modern Science.
Surely I have established my thesis that
dirt is only matter in a wrong place. Chem-
istry, like a thrifty housewife, ecouomizes
every scrap. The horseshoe nails dropped
in the streets are carefully collected, and
re -appear as swords and guns. The main
ingredient of the ink with which I now
write was probably once the broken hoop of
..an old beer : barrel. The chippings of the
-travelling tinker, are mixed with the par-
ings of horses' hoofs and the worst kind of
woollen rage, and these are worked up into
an exquisite blue dye which graces the dress
of courtly dames. The dregs of port wine,
carefully decantrd by the toper, are taken
in the morning ae seidlitz powder to remove
the effect of the debauch. The offal of the

A Toilet Table.
A small deal stand makes a neat dressing
table if it is smoothly covered with bright
cretonne. A pretty one was made -of an
old fashioned wash stand with square legs
and a shelf half way up. The top is to be
covered first with a square of cretonne sev-
eral inches larger in every direction. Place
the stuff on the floor face downward and
turn the stand upside down,`with the top in
the middle of the certonne. Draw it
smoothly over the edge of the table and
tack it on the lower part of the top, close to
the frame. Cover the shelf next in the
same way, cutting thetuff to fit around the
legs. Cover each leg with a straight strip
of cretonne drawn tight around it, with the
corner.
Turn un-
der
the in
edge lapping 4er c
the lapped edge anil tack with the small-
est sized tacks. Cover the frame last with
a band of cretonne, the upper edge of which
is turned under and tacked to the frame
close to the top of the stand. Cut the lower
edge to fit over the legs and draw it over
the edge of and inside the frame, tacking it
firmly there. Dene in rose cretonne with
an old mirror hanging over it, the frame of
which has been enameled to match, this
toilet stand is pretty enough for any
dressing -room.
