A wise man tells us that one's, history- can be largely told by the lines on th£ face. "Horizontal lines across the forehead are found even in children who are, rickets or idiots, and being out in the sun with the eyes unshaded will produce them permanently, but they are natural at forty ot8 earlier. Vertical i lines between the eyes/denote thought ami study, since deep concentration contracts the eyebrows; grief and wor­ ry produce the same effect, and fre­ quently repeated, either leaves a per­ manent fold in the skiu. Arched wrin­ kles just above the nose indicate ex­ treme suffering, either mental or phy­ sical. The earliest wrinkles of all tind the most unavoidable, are those.which run front either side of the nostril down to the mouth, and these are pro­ duced by smiling, and even the mo-, tion of the jaws in masticating."

A correspondent of an English paper believes that in the hippocycle a great advance has been made toward a ma­ chine that will be to the horse what the bicycle is to man. The machine is equipped with four forty-inch rubber tired wheels, the two rear wheels being drivers, the forward wheels steerers. The machine is so designed that the horse will propel himself and the vehi­ cle, and there will be two riders, who will do the steering and governing. The method of transmitting the pow­ er from the horse is by a revolving endless platform built upon two chains supported by rollers, the construction being identical with that of the horse­ power treadmills and with that in small flourmillsand wood-sawing yards. I it the liippoc.vcle the horse,will be as much at rest when agoing down hill, as if he were at home in his stall. Over good roads a speed of fifteen to twenty miles is said to have been made by the hippocycle. , . " In the 1897 Colum­ bia models a feature of special importance is (he double fork crown. It is a special construction which we have tried and found to bethe strongest. The crown is encased in nick, eled escutcheons, excluding dust or dirt, and giving a rich, distinctive finish, so that at a glance the fact that the wheel is the Columbia is apparent. 1897 Columbia Bicycles STANDARD OF $ fi/Sfifc 1% TO ALL THE WORLD.

A firm in North Carolina, which makes a specialty of rabbit skins, has re­ ceived an order for 100,000 of such feet. The native place of the potato is still an open question, but is probably the tropical regions of America. There is a tradition that the vines ouce grew to monstrous size, and that the "balls" were of the "bigness of melons," and at that time the roots were not tubers, the edible parts growing among the branches. An old lawyer ^ed to say a man's re<iuirenrNU.a-. J'tjf going to law were ten in number, and he summed them up as follows: Firstly, plenty of mon­ ey; secondly, plenty of patience; third­ ly, a good case; fourthly, a good solic­ itor: fifthly, plenty of money; sixthly, a good counsel; seventhly, a good wit­ ness;-eighthly. a good jury;'ninthly, a good judge; tenthly, plenty" of money. It would be interesting to know how the word "key," which is t he character­ istic name of many small islands in the Spanish-American waters, should have crept so far north as the coast.of New- Jersey, where it is found in Key East and Key West. The word is from the same root as quay, and it appears some hundreds of times between Florida and the coast of South America. Mr John Gilbert, President of the Jcoyai Society of Painters in Water Colors of Great Britain, has not sold any of his water color or oil paintings for many years past, intending to build a gallery for them and present gallery and pictures to the public. lit lias decided to donate the pictures lo existing public art galleries, and two weeks ago announced this intention and offered his valuable collection to be divided among free galleries in the principal cities of the kingdom. For the feeding of London a little more than 328,083 tons of meat, poul­ try and general provisions were deliv­ ered last year from the public mar­ kets alone. This total was some 15,000 tons more than in any previous year. There was an increase of over 19 per cent, in the supplies of American meat; 939,442 animals passed through one cattle market of the metropolis and 141,130 through another, all going to supply the city with food. These fig­ ures, of course, only indicate a part of the supplies. All the hardware used in the great Mormon temple at Salt Lake City was made to order, and bears either the device of the beehive--the Mormon name of their country being "Deseret," or "the land of the honey bee"--or the clasped hands, which is also one of the symbol's of the church. In tlie base­ ment all the door knobs and hinges are of solid brass, polished. Those upon the first floor are plated with gold, on the second floor with bright silver, on the third floor with oxidized silver, and those on the top floor are of antique bronze. A thousand women cigar-makers in Naples went on strike because, among other grievances, they were required to make cigars without tobacco. Eight hundred of them marched to the May­ or's ollice and publicly stated their troubles. Bad tobacco was given to them, they said, and then when they turned in bad cigars they were mulct­ ed of their wages because of alleged bad work. Wi*h 500 tobacco leaves they were expected to make GOO ci­ gars. "This is the reason," said one, "why people smoke cigars stuffed with tow and bits of wood." It is said a visitor to Naples found a cigar he was smoking to be stuffed with a lock of fine, soft black hair. WEIGHTY mm FOR Ayer's Sarsaparilia. . •• . i Didn't Have a Chance to Go to Church or Be a Christian. :V A few years ago I was sitting on/ afternoon, hi front of the hotel In a lit­ tle town hi Southern California, says a writer, when news earner that the over­ land train from the East had met with an accident near the outskirts of the Tillage, resulting in the fatal jnjury of the young fireman of the locomotive, who, standing at his post, had saved the train from utter wreck. Almost simultaneously with the news came the sight of a small procession of^rain- men, carrying upon an improvised lit­ ter their injured comrade. They brought him to the little tavern and when they asked him if fye wanted to see a pHest he gasped out that 4iis mother was an Episcopalian, and he knew she'd want him , to see a clergy­ man of that church. A messenger was dispatched to a neighboring town and in an incredibly short space of time a young missionary was on the spot. The injured man's brother, a brake- man on the same train,1 and several other trainmen were standing about his bed. As the minister entered the room the brother* cried la agony, "Oh, sir, do something for my brother. Pray for his soul." Going at once to the bed­ side, the young .clergyman saw that-he had but a few moments in which to minister to the dying man, and asked him whether he was a believer in Jesus and had ever been baptized. - "Yes," said the poor fellow, "I do be* live in Him, and I was christened when I was a kid, but God knows I haven't had a chance to go to church or to be a Christian." - * "V".. "He has been a good boy," said his brother. "He worked day and night to •support our crippled sister, old mother, Kind me, when I was laid up with the rheumatism and couldn't do a thing for a year." "He took care of me through the smallpox when no one else would come near me," declared a big, burly rail­ roader, with a sob. "And after taking his own rim," add- ,ed a young, sickly-looking fellow, "he loften took mine when I wasn't able to go out." As these testimonials were finished, the brother asked in agonized earnest­ ness, "God won't damn such a fellow, will He?" Promptly the minister answered: f'No! not if he is the God I have be­ lieved Him to be." And then, bending over the injured man he said, "In His name who declared, 'Inasmuch as ye Jiave done it unto one of the least of these, ye have done it unto me,' 1 com-' mend thy spirit into the hands of God who gave it." A few moments' silence, a look of perfect peace upon the face of the dy- fng boy, and then a whispered "Broth­ er." Instantly his brother was kneeling f?lose beside him, and wre heard him pay, "Brother, you won't mind my tell­ ing you of it now, will you? and per­ haps you'll let Nellie kuow it when I'm gone." - "What! Jack," exclaimed his brother, "have you loved Nellie?" Fainter came the answer, "With all my heart." "And you dida't tell her because you knew I loved her, too?" Eyes full of tenderness and affection gave the answer which the lips could po longer utter, and with his brother's cry of mingled admiration, gratitude and love, "Jack, Jack, God bless you!" sounding In his ears, the soul of the man who "hadn't had a chance to be a Christian" passed into the other world. An Infectious Laugh, "There's nothing in the world more contagious than good, hearty laughter," declared a manager who had a rough- and-tumble time of it in his earlier days, but is now on the warm and sun­ ny side of "Easy street." "One time, down in Southern Ohio, I struck a town that was really virgin soil for the theatrical missionary. There wasn't a minute of daylight that our posters we^ not surrounded by a crowd with mouths and eyes wide open. When night came the hall was jammed, but it couldn't have been a less respon­ sive audience if the penalty for laugh­ ing had been solitary imprisonment for life. The show wasn't half bod, and yet we couldn't get a hand or even a smile. "While the people on the stage wrere guying the crowd and talking about the comforts of the arctic climate, who should appear at the window of the box office but big 'Bill' Meeker, that I used to kuow at home. He was a trav­ eling man, and with him was 'Shorty' Thompkins, just as big and' just as jolly, " 'For heaven's sake, "Bill," ' I broke out, 'get right in there, you and your friend. Set that laugh of yours to go­ ing. Cut loose for all you're worth, and see if you can't prove an ice crush­ er.' No sooner were they seated than Bill caught a joke, opened a mouth big enough to catch baseballs, and let forth a roar that dropped icicles "from the cave troughs. Shorty jointd in, and the players couldn't escape the contagion. Pretty soon some of the old farmers broke into a cackle, and inside of three minutes it was simply pande­ monium. People laughed until they were sick. Every act was encored. It was 1 o'clock before we could get the curtain down, and we had over 300 in­ vitations to return." have been feeding upon its leaves pre­ sent a singularly mangy aspect, while the first effects of the plant upon the horse Is to deprive it of any caudal graces that.It may possess. Still more striking are the results of the Wild tamarind upon the human be­ ing. It immediately diminishes the growth of the hair,| and if .the diet is continued not only does it- produce complete bnldnesg on the crown of the head, but even brings about the dlfiap. pearance of eyebrows and eyelashes. Destroys Hair and Feathers. According to a lecture recently de­ livered before the British Association by Di\ Morris, one of the most emi­ nent. of English botanists, the fruit, the leaves, the young shoots and even the seeds of the wild tamarind, or jumbal plant, produce depilatory results of an extraordinary character. The plant in question Is to be found in all the tropi­ cal portions of Asia, Africa and Ameri­ ca; but it is especially in the West In­ dies that Dr. Morris had had the op­ portunity of studying its effects, not only on'liuman beings, but also on ani­ mals and birds. The latter after a pro­ longed diet of jumbai seeds are de­ scribed as rapidly losing all their feathers--the nudierous_ parrots and eockatoes in particular, no longer able to fly, hopping about like toads in the undergrowth in a state of almost mope- less and Ridiculous nudity. Horses, mules, donkeys, pigs and sheep are af­ fected in a similar mdnrier. Brush- makers would be unable to find even a solitary bristle upon a porker wlip has been gorging himself upon the pods of the wild tamarind. Jackasses which Prof. A. H.

De Wolfe. Fiske & Cot will shortly publish "Samuel Sewall and the World He Lived In," by N. H. Chaberlain, au­ thor of "Autobiography of a New England Farmhouse." The materials for the volume have been gathered from the records of the old Boston and New England life of 1630-1730. A third volume in the Macmillan Company's uniform edition of Fried- erich Nietsche's translated works is about to appear. It is entitled, "The Genealogy of Morals," and is consider­ ed scarcely less remarkable than the mucli-dlscussed "Thus Spake Zara- thustra." Several successful lullabies have been written by Miss Myra Augur Cliis- holm, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Chisholm, of Hinsdale, 111., both of whom are writers. Miss Cliisholm's "Slumber Sea" and "A Lullaby" have attained considerable popularity, and she has just written another called "The Sweetest Flower that Grows." "The Treatment of Nature In Dante's Divina Commedia," by Prof. L. Oscar Kuhns. shortly to appear from the press of Edward Arnold, aims at giving "a complete picture of Dante's use of all forms of animate and inanimate na­ ture, so arranged as to be read with in­ terest not only by the special Dante scholar, but by the general student of literature." "A Close Shave," a drama by Julio Terry Hammond, "written for the ne gro by a negro." shows a considerable appreciation of the dramatic elements in the question of race hatred, though its literary workmanship is crude. The action turns upon a negro barber's de­ fense of himself against a white bully. There are some possibilities of pathos in the situations she conjures up, tfut she destroys them by making her col­ ored characters speak in the stilted phrases of the melodrama. A New Scientific Wonder. For a long time a New York profes­ sor of physics has been experimenting with a method, now at length perfect­ ed, of making pictures of musical sounds by means of the camera. Such perfect results are obtained" that the voice of a tenor or soprano can be judg­ ed with absolute accuracy as to its quality and range without hearing it-- merely by inspecting a series of photo­ graphs. In the near future the mem­ bers of a choir or opera company will be selected by the committee on music from the voice photographs submitted by the various candidates. The pro fessor promises to. photograph a hu ge number of the finest voices obtainable; also, to get as many more photographs of poor voices. By a comparative study of the two series he expects to be able to reduce the peculiarities of a good voice to a basis of scientific under­ standing. The Greatest Bore. Every man is, after all, his own hard­ est taskmaster, his own most monot­ onous company. With an ordinary bore, who calls only now and then, lie can make shift to get along, but with a bore who goes to bed with him, gets up with him, breakfasts, lunches and dines with him, and is forever repeat­ ing tl^e old chestnut story of what a fool and a failure and a sinner he has been, is now, and will keep on being to the end of the chapter--why, with all this it is a very different matter. Such a bore Is each man in peril of becoming to himself. Haw She Fixer! It.

It's a very effective»plan, my dear, and I recommend it as a peacemaker.-- New York Tribune. New York Not Modern. New York is really not a modern town. The Island of the Manhattbes sent beaver skins to Europe sbon after Queen Eliza^th'died. In' 1Q26, only one year after the. death of the first King James, a permanent town was established upon it. And the first great chapter in the history of this .town was closed in 1664, only four years after £lie second Charles picked up his fath­ er's battered crown. Then New Am­ sterdam passed from Dutch into En­ glish hands, and was rechristened for the Duke of York tw,enty-one years be­ fore he began to govern it as the sec­ ond James. Thus the silver tankard owned- by the Schuylkill family, and given to their ancestor by Queen Anne when he "took; five Mohawk chiefs to visit her in 1710, is by" no means a relic of early New York. Who thinks of St. Petersburg as a typically modern town? Yet in 1710 St. Petersburg had been founded only half a dozen years. Huguenots came in with our first Hollanders, and more and more. of them in succeeding years, says > a writer in the Century. A large propor­ tion of,the so-called Dutch themselves were Flemings or Walloons of Gallic blood..and speech: Englishmen, Scotch and irishmen arrived before Great Britain officially arrived; Portuguese, Swiss, Danes. Spaniards, Swedes; Ger­ mans, negroes.

These are the graves of his pets--dogs, cats, coons, foxes, pigeons, rats, rab­ bits, etc. He is always attended by an army of these creatures, which, he says, are the only true friends man possesses. When any of them die lie buries them With care and erects a wooden slab at the head of each grave, bearing a suitable epitaph. On each of the graves flowers grow and these in season Stark cares for. In the mid­ dle of tliCrplot ls a vacant space reserv­ ed for Stark's grave. He says he wants to lie down for his last sleep among those who were his dearest friends dur­ ing life.
