WHAT NEXT? Ton Cents a Piece Is Now Offered for Live Mice. Not a little attention has been at­ tracted recently by the advertisement of a Westfield, Mass., firm, offering five cents each for live mice in any quan­ tity. So badly are the mice wanted by the concern that the offer was soon afterward raised to ten cents for each and every live mouse delivered. Some weeks ago a shoe dealer arranged in his window an exhibition of live mice and a teeter board. A mouse running up the little board would incline it in the opposite direction, and as the lively little creature scampered back and forth over the board it would be almost continuously teetering. The show at­ tracted much attention, and other in­ ventive minds saw its possibilities as an advertising scheme, and improved on it by replacing the teeter board by an Inclined disc, which rotated rapidly when the mice ran over its surface. From the disc was evolved a hat or umbrella teetotum. This is the most advanced stage. A toy company quick­ ly saw its possibilities and arranged to put the thing on the market. An agent with a sample case of the attractions was sent to the large cities of the cen­ tral and middle states, and he had but to show it to make a sale on the spot. The company now has orders far be­ yond its powers to fill, the chief cause of delay being the scarcity Of mice. That is why the price of the rodents is quoted at ten cents in Westfield.--New York Sun.

Story. Cooked By Cold. Any one who has ever picked up with a bare hand a piece of intensely cold iron knows that the touch burns almost as badly as if the metal were redhot. Indeed the action.of the great heat and extreme cold is so similar that a Hun­ garian chemist has turned the latter to account to prepare meats for food. He subjects the meat to 60 degrees of ffost and then seals it up in airtight tin cans. The result is that the meat, nnrror:5- which is practically "cooked by cold," will keep any time and caa be eaten with very little further preparation. the most attractive of the official houses which is saying a great deal in face of the splendor of nearly all of the residences that have been takett by President -McKinley's cabinet of­ ficers. The Gage house is the one in Mas­ sachusetts avenue on the prettiest part of that thoroughfare. It is only two years old, and, so far, it" has never been identified with ofiicial Washing­ ton. It is built of white stone, as is the home of the Secretary of State and Mrs. Sherman, and the exteriors of the two mansions are not unlike, having been designed by the same architect. The design is. striking and rather or­ nate, and the Gage house is made more conspicuous by the treatment of the windows, where the handsomest lace that is to be seen in "Washington is shown. Mrs. Gage is looking forward to her first winter as the wife of a cabinet officer with nothing but pleasure. She has a handsome house, she has good servants, she has already made friends with the most prominent persons in Washington society, and she has, by nature, so much dignity and self-pos­ session that she does not know what the sensation of being flurried means. She will know how to make the most timid woman who will venture into her drawing room on reception- days feel at home, and she will know how to disarm the most critically-disposed woman of the "old Washingtonian" set, which is composed of women who look upon a new cabinet lady, as some one who is up on trial, as it were, for their favor, and who have established ideas in regard to the proper bearing, handshake etc. Their attitude ..reminds one of TEe reply that one of the regular Wash­ ington correspondents made not long ago to a cabinet officer who had not learned yet that the haughtiest person, under the sun is the Washington cor­ respondent, and who tried to ,be a little stiff with the newspaper man. The cabinet officer received a cold stare of surprise, and was answered thus: "Why, do you know that one of the chief occupations of our lives is to see you people come and go." Mrs. Gage has decided to have col­ ored servants, and so far no livery has been seen, unless the black dress'and white cap and apron of the maid ran be called livery. A cargo of things from the Chicago home of Secretary and Mrs. Gage has not arrived, but the mistress of the house has scattered enough of her own rugs and hangings, pieces of pottery and pictures, to im­ press her own individuality upon the rooms. The large drawing room, where Mrs. Gage will stand to receive on the cabinet Wednesdays, is a beau­ tiful apartment, with high ceilings tinted in light green, and showing some fine fresco work representing cupids. garlands of flowers and bow- knots in delicate colors. The furniture is of satin of ah olive shade, and the portieres are of the same material. There is an onyx fireplace and a cabi­ net for curios. Between the drawing room and the music room is the square hall, large enough to hold a reception in, wain­ scoted almost to the ceiling with old oak, with a carved stone fireplace, a tall, inlaid clock, several attractive little settees and bright touches of red in cushions, lampshades and wall pa-, per. The stairway is a majestic af­ fair, parting at the first landing and giving a domelike effect to the center of the house„ The prettiest rporn in the house is the music room, between the hall and the dining room. The walls are cov­ ered with light blue satin damask, and the ceiling is frescoed in a delicate pattern. The piano is of white wood, and the chairs are of gilt, and are up­ holstered in blue satin. The dining room is a splendid apartment. The furniture is of heavy dark oak, there is a wainscoting half way to the ceil­ ing, and the chairs are high-backed and heavily carved. The walls are papered in warm green, harmonizing with the rug that covers the floor, and the portieres are of tapestry pattern. The library, which is upstairs, is the favorite room of both Secretary and, Mrs. Gage, and it has only one fault- it is too small to hold the boOks "that the Secretary would like to have from his library in Chicago. Mrs,. Gage's boudoir occupies the whole front ot the house in the second story. It is, furnished in lfeht blue, Mrs. Gage's favorite color, with" a dressing room adjoining, which is a nest of silk hangings, soft rugs, laces and tall Future Fuutshment at a, Discount.
