The Art of Keeping "Warm. The 'Russians' have a great knack of making their winter pleasant, You feel nothing of the cold in- those. tightly built houses, where-ail doors and win­ dows are double. and where the rooms are kept warm by big stoves hidden in the walls. There is no damp in a Russian house, dud the inmates may dress indoors in the lightest garbs, which contrast oddly with the mass of furs and wraps which they don when going out. 'A Russian can afford to run 110 risk of exposure when lie leaves the house for a walk or drive. He covers his head and ears with a fur bonnet, his feet and legs with felt boots lined with wool or fur. which are drawn over the ordinary boots and trousers, and reach up to the knees; he next cloaks himself in a top-coat with a fur collar, lining, and cuffs; lie buries his hands in a pair of lingerless gloves of seal or bear skin. Thus equipped, and with the collar of his coat raised all around, so that it muffles him up to his eyes, the Russian exposes only his nose to the cold air; and he takes care frequently to give that organ a little rub to keep the cir­ culation going. A stranger who is apt to forget the precaution would often get his nose frozen if it were not for the courtesy of the Russians, who will always warn him if they see his nose "whitening." aqd^will, unbidden, help liini to chafe it vigorously with snow. I11 Russian cities walking is just pos­ sible for men during the winter, but hardly so for ladies. The women of the poorer classes wear knee boots; those of the shop-keeping class seldom venture out at all. those of the aristoc­ racy go out in sleighs. Soap Mines. The natural soap mines at Owen's Lake, California, are accounted for by a scientist who advances this theory, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer; The water in the lake contains, he says, a strong solution of both borax and soda. In the water a curious speci­ men of grub breeds by millions. These grubs go through their various trans­ formations and finally emerge as short- winged, heavy-bodied tlies, very fat and oily. They live but a few days, dying and falling into the lake in such numbers as to be .frequently washed ashore in layers more than a foot thick. The oily substance of the dead flies blends with the alkali of the borax and soda and the result is a layer of pure soap, corresponding in thickness to the drift strata of the dead flies, a foot deep of flies making a layer of soap nearly an inch thick. These strata, repeated year after year, have formed the celebrated "Soap Banks of Owen's Lake," where for a number of years past a large body of men have been reg­ ularly at work.

With the advent of the season when rural roads are in poor condition the subject of road reforijj again receives attention. There has been some im­ provement in recent years since the campaign of education . wa's com­ menced. The greater part of this Im­ provement has been due to the action of localities' and individuals. A few farmers and others who find that good roads are a paying investment in sav­ ing time, horseflesh and vehicles as well as, permitting the drawing of heavier loads arq beginning to mani­ fest a disposition to voluntarily make their locaj roads better. - It Has been found that, there are two classes of objectors to improvement of the roads at'county expense in New- York. First, the farmers are not fully prepared to meet their legal share of the cost of the work; secondly, city taxpayers assert that when country roads may lead ̂ business out of the county and be a detriment to the cities they will pay the larger part of the citet. (riie farmers of a locality, if roads Were Improved, would, it is said, seek tile best and nearest market, which may not be a city in their county. But what a city which is a county seat would lose in this way would be made up by increased trade from farmers iiviug outside the county boundary, but near the city in question. Hence there would be no loss to taxpayers of cities. The latter; to their credit, be It said, are less adverse to the improvement of county roads at public expense than many residents of rural districts. This is the more remarkable as the roads that will be improved under the county system are outside the cities and lead past property owned by the obj<rcTTifg rural people. An impression has been made on the latter, however, and per­ haps in a few years We shall have a demand on the part of the farmers for better roads.--New York Mail and Ex- 'press. The Large PSying Squirrel. The large red tl.ving squirrel is in­ teresting, but not beautiful. It is whol­ ly nocturnal, and, like most nocturnal animals, is extremely surly aud spite­ ful if disturbed in the daytime. It is as large as a cat, with a .face like a rabbit's. Its coloring is extremely: brilliant for a mammal, aud in general appearance it resembles some curious monster in a Chinese painting. The fur is-a rich and deep chestnut on its back, light chestnut below, its head White, rind its eye a dull pale gray. • The wide parachute membrane, be­ tween its legs is covered with fur, and its tail is long,, thickly furred, and round. This squirrel does not^tth:." in the proper sense of the word,Tout in the forests its parachute membrane answers its purposes almost equally as well as wings. It ruus with a won­ derful agility up the trunk of the tree, aud to the end of a branch, and then takes a flying leap, with its limbs ex­ tended to the utmost, and the wide flesh nieinbrane stretched. -This "aerial slide" carries it forward and downward to a horizontal distance of perliapg forty or fifty yards, and it is noticed that, as in the case of birds when making use of their powers of descent with fixed pinions, the squir­ rel throws itself upward, and ascends slightly at the close of the "flight," perching on the bough it aims at with all the lightness of a pigeon descending from a tower to some point upon the roof below.--The Spectator. id 1 k »n An Object Lesson. A boulevard from Chicago to Mil­ waukee would at least be an object les­ son in good roads to the farmers along the route. To be sure the farmers would uot be allowed to use the boule­ vard for the ordinary business of life-- that is not what boulevards are for. But at least the ruralists would learn by contrast how abominable these couu- try roads are, and so. perhaps, be spurred on, as never before, to repair them and so taste the sweets of at least rudimentary civilization. Good roads, it is true, cost much money, and our farmers as a rule are not blessed with a superabundance of cash. But good roads at the same time^ greatly advance the value of farpi property, as well as the pleasure of country life, while affecting no small saving in horseflesh and in the wear and tear of wagons and carriages. If a few millions less should be appro­ priated every yedr-for the improvement of alleged rivers and harbors the farm­ ers would have more money in their pockets to expend for the improvement of the country roads.--Philadelphia Record.

Yet as s pears to exist In the minds of persons who have not yet acquired the higher culture, at Girton or elsewhere, as to the precise meaning of this biological term, I will venture to explain that it is the modern name for all that vast group of leading mammals most nearly related to ourselves, aud comprising not only the apes and monkeys, but also the lemurs, the aye-ayes, and the bats.

We should apply to unclean and super­ ficial books the characteristic formula with which Lord Beacousfield acknowl­ edged the receipt of a new volume; "Lord Beacousfield presents his com pliments to Mr. Y , and will lose nc time in perusing his interesting work." What a clever concentration of doubk meanings! For lie doubtless found, as we find to-day, many papers and bookt which no one should waste time in perusing. Moments are too golden t lose; and instead of catching up tin first bit of reading at hand, let us save time by spending some of it in judi cious selection. Since we have 0111 choice of companions for a leisure hour, why not take the best we know?

A now distinguished jurist, says aE exchange, migrated to a Western town; mouths of idleness, with no prospeel of improvement, induced him to seek a new home. Without money to pay his fare, he boarded a train for Nash­ ville, intending to seek employment as reporter on one of the daily newspa­ pers. When the conductor called foi his ticket he said: "I am on the staff of the , of Nashville; I suppose you will pass me?" The conductor looked at him sharply. "The editor of thai paper is in the smoker; come with me. If he identifies you, all right." He fol­ lowed the conductor into the smoker; the situation was explained. Mr. Ed itor said: "Oh, yes; I recognize him as one of the staff. It is all right," Be fore leaving the train the lawyer again sought the editor. "Why did you say you recognized me? I'm not 011 youi paper." "I am not the editor, either. I'm traveling on his pass, and was scared to death lest you should give me away."

It is well to remember that in time^ of illness your bedroom is either youi prison or your pleasance. Cheerful­ ness and absolute comfort are the re­ quirements here. The room should uot be incumbered with much furni­ ture; it is far better whenever possible to have the furniture fitted and fixed. Recesses such as frequently occur right and left of the chimney; breast should be fitted as Wardrobe^ their simply painted panel doors add much to the appearance of the room.

Mrs. G. was much interested in a mission Sunday school in one of our large cities, says the Evangelist, and spent an hour or two eyery Sunday afternoon with a class of little girls, poor street waifs that had been gather­ ed in. Upon one occasion, when the last lesson had been about the ten vir­ gins. live of whom were wise and live foolish, the teneher asked, as was her custom, who In the class could tell anything about the lesson of the pre­ vious Sunday.
