PATRICK'S BALL March 17th, known as St. Patrick's Day, although not a statute holiday, is generaliy observed in this "Oupoat ol tho Empire," iu a manner befitting the occasion. On that day pieces oi green ribbon, emblematical of the "Little Green Isle," are displayed by persons in all walks ol life, while descendants of "Ould Oireland" offer toasts of good- fellowship with a "touch of potheen," and are the quintessence of hospitality, forare they not celebrating tbe anniversary of St. Patrick tbe apostle, and patron saint of Ireland, who was born in the year 37S and died about 406. Great acts are credited to the siint and many Irishmen swear that he controls the destiny ol tho Emerald Isle. Among the residents of Slocan may be found many descendants of the "Ould Sod," and they propose celebrating the anniversary of their patron saint by giving a grand, ball at Slocan on the evening of the 17th. Excellent ar- angements have bean made, and tbe latest popular dance music will ba rendered by a competent orchestra. A sumptuous repast will be served about midnight, and everything will be done for the accomodation of all who attend tho affair. A number of residents of the lake towns are expected (or tbe occasion and arrangements hava been made for their comfort. It is a foregone conclusion that there will be a meny time in Slocan on the evening in question and no one will make any mistake in attending it. The B.C.

But we venture rather timidly to surgcat that it's a matter ol dollars and dimes witb the B.C. Record.

Band Mrs. William's ad, tbis week. has paid $000 per acre for a six acre block. The purchaser was Mr. T. H. Hoben, the well-known New Denver merchant, and tho vendor Mr. G. Williamson. Although the price necessarily appears tall, Mr. Hoben must be congratulated on bis foresight in securing so splendid a block near town, which is not only choice in location, but is aleo in as good condition as hands of man can make it. The property is well fan*cd,anl about 4>_ acres are now planted to trees. There ia alta a one-storey building on the land. We are glad to see that some of our citizens are enterprising enoagh to secure one or two of the "plums" before the inevitable rise in land value it upon us. Attention lias been directed to the fertile land in this vallov to such an extent that the enterprising firm of Brydges, Blakemore & Cameron has recently installed an office in New Denver with R. W. Moeran as manager. It must not be supposed that all first class land in the district is on the market at figures approaching those in the recent turnover. Unimproved land ol a first-class order is awaiting settlers ol moderate means, and these bench lands are peculiarly adapted for fruit culture, being veritable sun traps. As all are on a direct line of transportation, fruitgrowers will have none of those difficulties in marketing their produce which ranchers in other districts have to contend with. A C.P.R. steamer makes two trips a day from one end ol the lake to tha other, and connection is made by rail with Nelson for Crow's Nest Pass points from the eouth, and witb Revelstoke and main line markets from the north. To intending settlers in the Koot nay Fruit Belt wo would add that Bounteous Sloean has no peer. We desire to make tbat point as emphatic as possible. Do not be misled or side-tracked by people outside of the distiict who have something inferior to offer. While we can lay no claim to a large acreage in this valley, there are several thousands of acres of fruit, pasture and agricultur.il lands which are the cream of Kootenay. These should ba visited. All points along the lake are within easy distances ol either New Denver, Silverton and Slocan City, at which places Church, social and educational privileges prevail. There are no extremes in summer or winter, and no mosquito pests. Slocan lake is recognized as tbo moat charming expanse of water in British Columbia, and New Denver is bound to become a fashionable summer resort. St. Stephen's church, New Denver.

Always the side branches must be headed in this way if they show signs of coming ahead ol the lender until they are finally induced to take a subordinate position, It will likely now be found tbat thore are too many branches and that they nre crowding each other; no matter, if given a choice and if tbey have to be sacrificed their existence will not bave been wasted, tbey will have assisted to thicken and strengthen the main stem. It is not claimed that there is anything new in this article; it is simply an attempt to state in clear and concise language a definite system which at rate has the merit ot producing surely, and without waste of time, energy in plant growth, the results aimed at. The attempt stems to be justified because this pnrt oi the orchardiat's art has not often been stated either clearly, concisely or completely, and it is very necessary to have clear and definite ideas on the subject, With a clear mental picture of what ia needed in regards to shaping a tree the pruning of young trees is a rapid and sure operation. The tree is pruned and shaped mentally as the operator walks towards it. A few deft cuts with a sharp pair of shears and it is done. Lacking this clear idea there ie indecision and doubt; the indecision of the first year produces the puzzle ol the second year, which tn tbe third year becomes an insoluble problem, or one only to be solved in sacrificing half or more of the tree, and thereby watting the greater part ol tbe energy of the growth that the tree has put forth in tba past. Larry Dolan, who several years ago was chief of police at Sandon, recently dropped dead of heart failure at the Commercial Hotel, Winnipeg.

As yet no definite plans are moulded as to the general program, but these will be made known in due course.

The summer vacation had oeen spent by tbo Remingtons and Maddy at the seaside, the latter coming to the cottage for a week before returning to her school in New York, and as the doctor was then absent front* home, she dil not meet him at all. Consequently, he had not seen her sliice she left Aikenside for New York. But she wns at home now for the Christmas holidays���was down at the cottage, too; and .mus*.inlly nervous for him, the doctor stood before th*. little square glass in his back office, trying to make himself look ns well as possible, for he wns going that very afternoon to cull upon Miss Clyde. He wns glad she W113 not nt Aikenside; ho would rallier meet her where Guy wns not. nnd he hoped he might be fortunate enough to find her alone. The doctor wns seriously in love. He acknowledged that now to himself, confessing, too, thnt with his love was mingled a spice ol jealousy, lest Guy Remington should be expending more thought on Maddy Clyde than was consistent with the promised husband of Lucy Atherstone. He wished so much to talk with Guy about her, and yet he dreaded it; for if the talk should confirm his suspicions there would be no hope for him. No girl in her right mind would prefer him to Guy Remington, and with a little sigh tlie doctor was turning away from the glass, when, aa if to verify a familiar proverb, Guy himself drove up in a most dashing equipage, the silver-tipped harness of his high-mettled steed flashing in the wintry sunlight, and the bright-hued lining of his fanciful robes presenting a very gay appearance. Guy was in the best of spirits. For an entire half-day he had tried to devise some means for getting Maddy up to Aikenside. It was quite too bad for her to spend the whole Vacation at the cottage, as she seemed likely to do. He knew she was lonely there; that the bare floor, and low, dark walls affected her unpleasantly. He had** seen that in her face when he bade her good-by, for he had carried her down to the cottage himself, and now he was going after her. There was to be a party at-Aikenside -the very first since Guy was its master. , -, ,. ,_.,.__ - , , . , The neighbors had said he was too ' medding with his,plans, and had he proud to invite them, but they should �������* ill the habit ol swearing he say so no more. The house was to.

First Boft* brown eves smiled up into his son, while the doctor cbntriTtfecTT "Yes, and I beg your pardon for it; but let me ask you one question, and upon its answer will depend my future course with regard to Maddy* You are true to Lucy?" Guy felt the blood trickling at the roots of his hair, but he answered truthfully as he believed: "Yes, true as steel," while the generous thought came over him that he would further the doctor's plans all he possibly could. "Then I am satisfied," the doctor rejoined; "and ns you have rather assumed the position of her guardian or brother, I ask your permission to offer her the love which, whether she accepts it or not, is herB." Guy had never Ielt a sharper pang than that whicli now thrilled through every nerve, but he would not prove false to the friend confiding in him, and he answered calmly: "You have my consent; but, doc, better put it off till you see her at Aikenside. There's no chance at the cottage, with those three old people. I wonder she don't go wild. I'm sure I should." Guy was growing rather savage about something, but the doctor did not mind *. and grasping his arm as he arose, he said: "And you'll manage it lor me, Guy? You know how. I don't. You'll contrive ior me to see her alone, and maybe say a word beforehand in my favor." "Yes. y���� I'll manage it. I'll fix it right. Dou't forget, day after tomorrow nigiit. Tlie Cutlers will be there, and, by the way, Marcia has got to be a splendid girl. She fancied you 'once, you know. Old Cutler is worth half a million." And Guy tore himself iwh.v from the doctor, who, now that the ice was broken, would like to have talked of Maddy forever. But Guy was not thus inclined, and in a mood not extremely amiable, he threw himself into his sleigh and went dashing down toward Honedale. For some unaccountable reason he was not now one bit interested in the party, and, were it not that a lew of the invitations were issued, he would have been tempted to give it up. Guy did not know what ailed him. He only felt as if* somebody had been on the list was the doctor, who, remembering how averse Guy was to large parties, wondered at the proceedings. But Guy was all engaged ���in the matter, and after telling who were to be invited, added half indifferently. "I'm going now down to Honedale alter Maddy. It's better for her to be with us a day or two before. You've seen her, of "ourse." No, the doctor had not; he was just going there, he said, in a tone so full of sad disappointment that face, and a little, fat, warm hand was clasped in his, as Maddy came even to the gate to meet him. She was very glad to see him. The cottage with its humble adornings did seem lonely, almost dreary, after the life and bustle ol New York, and Maddy had cried more than once to think how hard and wicked she must be growing when her home had ceased to be the dear old home she once loved so well. She had been there five days now, and notwithstanding Guy detected "it iTont��,l^^k*TS _h__ e.f_0,_-8 of he. g,r_andf!*_ie"_9.Jf_Jen; anything was the matter. "Guy," the dnctor continued, sitr ting down by his friend, "I remember once your making me your confidant about Lucy, it, too?" "Yes, why? well?" Guy replied, beginning to feel strangely uncomfortable as he half divined what was coming next. Latterly Guy had stopped telling the doctor that be was educating Maddy for him. Indeed he did not talk of her at all, and the doctor might have fancied her out of his mind but for the frequent visits to New York which Guy found it absolutely necessary to make. Guy did not himself understand the state of his own feelings with regard to Maddy, but if compelled to explain them, they would hnve been something as follows*. He fully expected to marry Lucy Atherstone; the possibility that he should not had never occurred to him, but thnt was no reason why Maddy Clyde need be' married for these many years. She was very young yet; there was time enough for her to think of marrying when she was twenty-five, and in the meanwhile it would be splendid to have her at Aikenside as Lucy's and his friend. Nothing could be nicer, and Guy did not care to hnve this little arrangement spoiled. But that the doctor had an idea of spoiling it, he had not a doubt, particularly after the doctor's next reinnrk. "I have not seen Muddy since last spring, you Ttnow. Is she very much improved?" "Yes. very much, There is no more stylish-looking girl to be seen on Broadway thnn Maddy Clyde," and Guy shook down his pantaloons a little awkwardly. "Wi'li, is she as handsome as she used to be, and as childish in her manner?" the doctor asked; and Guy replied; "I took her to the opera once, last month, and the many admiring glances cast at our box proved pretty positively thnt Maddy's beauty wns not of the ordinary kind." "The opera!" the doctor exclaimed; "Maddy Clyde at the opera! What would her grandfather say? He is very puritanical, you know." "Yes, I know! and so is Maddy, too. She wrote and obtained his consent before she's go with me. He won't let her go to the theatre." Here an interval of silence ensued, and then the doctor began again. "Guy, you told me once you were educating Maddy Clyde for me, and I tried then to make you think I didn't care; but I did, oh, so much I Guy, laugh at me, if you please. I cannot blame you if you do; but the fact is, I believe I've loved Maddy Clyde ever since that time she was so sick. At all events, I love her now. and I was going down there this very afternoon to tell her so. She's old enough. She was sixteen last October, the���the���" "Tenth day," Guy responded, thus showing that he, SJoo, was keeping Maddy's age. "Yea, the tenth day," resumed the doctor. "There's 'most eleven yearB' difference between us, but if she feels at all as I do, she will not care, Guy," and the doctor began to talk earnestly: "I'll be candid with you, and say that you have sometimes made my heart ache a little." ^r-JlAaA t'i. tu_d 4:,._'a *_*_���_ __*a_ Criui* tertain her, each day had seemed a week in its duration. Neither the doctor nor Guy had been near her, and capricious little Maddy had made her- You remember | 8e^ believe that the former was sadly remiss in his duty, inasmuch as he had not seen her for so long. He had been in the habit of calling every week, her grandmother said, and this did not tend to increase her amiability. Why didn't he come now when he knew she was at home? Didn't he want to see her? Well, she could be indifferent, too, and when they met, Bhe'd show how little she cared! Maddy was getting to be a woman, with womanly freaks, as the reader will readily see. At Guy she was not particularly piqued. She did not take his attentions as a matter ol course; still she thought more of him, if possible, than of the doctor, during those five days, saying to herself each morning: "He'll surely come to-day," and to herself each night: "He will be here to-morrow." She had something to show him at last���a letter from Lucy Atherstone, who had gradually come to be her regular correspondent, and whom Maddy had learned to love with all the intensity of her girlhood. To her ardent imagination Lucy Atherstone was but a little lower than the angels, and the pure, sweet thoughts contained in every letter were doing almost as much toward molding her character as Grandpa Markham's prayers and constant teachings. Maddy did not know it, but it was these letters Irom Lucy which kept her from loving Guy Remington. She could not for a moment associate him with herself when she so constantly thought of him as the husband of another, and that other Lucy Atherstone. Not for worlds would Maddy huve wronged the gentle creature who wrote to her so confidingly of Guy, envying her in that she could so often see his face and hear his voice, while his betrothed waa separated from him by many thousand miles. Little by little it had come out that Lucy's mother was averse to the match, tbat she had in her mind the case of an English lord who would make her daughter "My Lady"; and this was the secret of her deferring so long her daughter's marriage. In her last letter to Maddy, however, Lucy had written with more than her usual spirit that she would come in possession ol her property on her twenty-fifth birthday. She should then feel at liberty to act for herself, and she launched out in* her o<T*~n*i:"~��r3's. yoit*.r,i**,*, *_Mr'_rre means to be married in Bpite of her mother���she says���let me see"���and drawing from her bosom Lucy's letter, Maddy read, " 'I do not intend to fail in filial obedience, but I have tried dear Guy's patience long en- o.jf-h, and as soon as I can, I shall marry him.' Isn't it nice?" and returning the letter to its hiding place, Maddy scooped up in hor hand and ate some of the snow beside the path. "Yes, it was very nice," Guy admitted, but there was a shadow on his brow as he followed Maddy into the cottage, where the lunatic, who had been watching them from the window, shook his head doubtfully and said, "Too young, too young for you, young man. You can't have our Sunshine, if you want her." "Hush, Uncle Joseph," Maddy whispered, softly, taking his arm and laying it around ber neck. "Mr. Remington don't want me. He is engaged to an English girl across the sea." Low as Maddy's words were, Guy heard them, as well as the crazy man's reply, "Engagements have been broken." That wns the first time the possibility had ever entered Guy's brain that his engagement might be broken, provided he wished it, which he did not, he said to himself positively. Lucy loved him, he loved Lucy, and that was enough, sn in a kind of abstracted manner, arising from the [act that he was calculating how long it would he before Lucy was twenty-live, he began to talk with Muddy, asking how she hnd spent her time, and so forth. ThiB leininded Maddy of the loetor, who, she said, had not been to see ber nt nil. "He was coining this morning,' Guy rejoined, "but I persuaded him to defer his call until yon were at Aikenside. I hnve come to take you bnck with me, as we are to have a party day after to-morrow evening, and 1 wish you to be present." A party, a big party, such as Maddy had never in her life attended! How her eyes sparkled from mere anticipation as she looked appealingly to her grandfather, who, though classing parties with the pomps and vanities Irom which he would shield his child, still remembered that he once was young, that fifty years ago he, too, like Maddy. wanted "to see the folly of it," and not tnke the mere word of older people that in every lestive scene there was a pitfall, strewn over so thickly with roses that it was oft- times hard to tell just where its boundary line commenced. Besides that, grandpa had faith in Guy. and so his consent wns granted, and Mnddy was soon on her way to Aikenside. which presented a gayer, busier appearance than she hnd ever known before. Jessie was wild with delight dragging forth at one? the pink dress which she was to wear, and whispering to Maddy that Guy had bought a dark blue silk for her, and the*1 Sarah Jones was at that moment fashioning it after n dress left there by Maddy the previous summer. "Mother said plain white muslin was more appropriate lor a young girl, but Brother Guy snid no; the blue silk would be useful after the party; it was whnt you needed, and so he bought it nnd paid a dollar and three-quarters a yard, but it's a secret until you are called to try it on. Isn't Guy splendid?" He was indeed splendid, Maddy thought, wondering why he was so kind to her. and if it would be so when Lucy came. The dress fitted admirably, only Maddy thought grandpa would say it wns too low in the neck, but Sarah overruled her objections, assisted by Guy. who. when the dress wns completed nnd tried on lor the last time, wns called in by Jessie to see if "Maddy's neck didn't look just like cheese curd," and if "she should have a piece sewed on as she suggested " The neck was au lait, Guy said, laughing at Maddy for blushing so, and saying, when he Baw how really distressed she seemed, that he would provide her with something to relieve the bareness of which she complained. "Oh. I know. I saw, I peeked in the box," Jessie began, but Guy put his hand ovei the little tattler's mouth, bidding li:*r keep the result of ber peeking to herself. And for once Jessie succeeded in doing so. although she several times set Maddy to grossing what it was Guy had for hor in a box! As the size of the box was not mentioned, Maddy had fully made up her mind to a Shawl or scarf, and was proportionately disappointed when, aa she was dressing for the pnrty, there was sent up to ber room a small round box, scarcely large enough to hold an apple, much less a small scarf. The present proved to a pair ol plain, but heavy bracelets, and a most exquisitely wrought chain of gold, to which was appended a beautiful pearl cross, the whole accompanied with thg words, "From Gulr."

Accomplice of "Chicago May fenced In England. An echo of the case in which Guer- in, the escaped convict from Devil'*! j Island, and "Chicago May" and her companion Smith figured recently, was heard at the Sussex Assises at Lewes recently, when a fashionably-attired young man was sentenced by Mr. Justice Grantham to five years' penal servitude for stealing a quantity of valuable jewelry from a private house at Eastbourne. Prisoner was charged under the name of Edward Miller, but to the police of this and other countries he is known by the name of Ferrari. Counsel said prisoner waa an Italian, and was a moat notorious criminal. He had been deported Irom South Africa for shop-breaking, and landed in this country as an accomplice of the notorious "Chiomgo May" and the man Smith, who was recently sent to penal servitude for life, for shooting Guerin. A Bow street detective told the court that prisoner had lived with "Chicago May" and Smith, and had assisted them in their blackmailing operations. The judge, in passing sentence, said he would do his best to prevent England being pestered with such a scoundrel. At the expiration of his sentence Ferrari would be deported to Italy. Since the arrest of "Chicago May" he has lived something like a life of cultivated luxury among fashionable hotel guests (whom he victimized) and his books (which he read in four or five languages). He speaks Italian, French. German, Russian, and English well. He is a member of a wealthy and highly-esteemed family in Italy. When "Smith" met him he had already disgraced his family by clever thefts, and "Smith" enlisted him as an accomplice. A bad blunder over a Turin bank "job" made it politic for the couple to dash for safety, aud they made they way to the South African gold and diamond fields, not to do any digging, but to carry on systematic and wholesale robbery of the mines. They moved from camp to camp, committing daring robberies nightly under tbe most desperate circumstances. Drugs were freely used. In the large towns of South Africa they lived brief lives of dissipation on the proceeds of their camp robberies. It was in Kimberley that Ferrari came to grief over a particularly daring robbery. He broke into an hotel at the dead of night and attempted to force the safe unsuccessfully after an hour's hard work with his tempered tools. He actually ascended to the bedroom of the proprietor to search for the keys. Whilst he was moving stealthily about the landlord's wife awoke. Ferrari dropped flat on his stomach and held his breath. The landlord's wife actually got out of bed and looked out of the window, and then returned to bed without having her suspicions aroused. Ferrari lay until she fell asleep again, and then he continued his search. He found the keys under the landlord's pillow, opened the safe, and got away. The marlc of one of his tools, however, gave him away, and he was arrested. After their next arrest and sentence they were ordered to be deported to America, of which country they claimed to be citizens, but they "jumped" the boat at - Southampton, and after robbery at an hoted to "make their fares" went on to London. Here, in the Regent's park district they lived in elegant style, and Ferrari indulged his taste in literature in a splendid library. To this place they lured the blackmailed victims of "Chicago May" whom they met in London.

New Occupation Opened For Women by London Society. A "visiting companion" for dogs is the latest profession which has been opened for women. A lady living at Chelsea advertised recently that she would be willing to exercise dogs and care for them at their owners' homes. "My idea is to call at various houses and take the pet dog out for a walk," the visiting companion explained. "There are many ladies who are as fond of dogs as if they were children, and yet have not much time to devote to their pets. "I can undertake the dog's diet if necessary, and attend tq> his toilet, washing and combing him when required." Electrical Cooking. An "electrical dinner party" is the latest solution of the problem of the young wife whose husband unexpectedly brings home a party of friends. The exhibition of electrical cookery and heating appliances organized by the Borough Council at Uie Harnp- stead Town Hall recently proved that it is possible to cook an excellent meal in twenty minutes. The cold mutton can be minced in two minutes in an electrical mincer while the potatoes are boiling in an electrical saucepan. The kettle is ready in three minutes for tea or coffee, and a further surprise awaits the unexpected visitors. A tasty sponge pudding can be baked in the electric oven without active electricity. When the meat has been removed and the lights switched off, the padding cooks in the warmth thai remains. If the hosteas has run short of bread, she can bake tiny scones or rolls on an electric hot plate in half a minute; and if she is anxious to tidy herself, an electric heater will warm her curling tongs in a quarter of a minute, while a crushed blouse or skirt can be renovated by the aid of an electric iron Mrs. Godfrey Suteliffe demonstrated how it was possible to make a sachet cake in three-quarters of an hour.

There was only one passenger and he hnd chosen to sit outside beside the driver. Several times he had tried conversation, but bad met with so little encouragement that he had given up and wus silently watching the landscape. Presently they came to a tiny mountain burying ground, containing a few grave stones nnd n few unmarked graves. The passenger looked at it, struck by its nir of loneliness, which seemed to stir in him nfresh the desire for human intercourse. He turned again to the driver, pointed to the graveyard, and observed: "People around here don't seem to die very often, do they?" And without turning his head, "Jest once," said the driver. * You May Need It Ask your doctor about the wisdom of your keeping Ayer's Cherry Pectoral in ihe house, ready for colds, coughs, croup, bronchitis.

An Instance of one of the amusing experiences Is given. The old gray bearded butler announced at luncheon one day that the dishwasher was III wltb fever, but tbat If I would give him some medicine he would soon be able to resume his work. I happened to have none by me, but tbe matter was urgent, clean dishes being Important "Can he go to the chemist's, do you think, for some physic if I give bim a letter?" I asked. "I don't know what to write for." "Ob, yes," he said; "be Is quite able to go tbat abort distance." I thought that was much tbe best way, and then the chemist could give him what was proper. So I wrote: "Please give tbe bearer a dose of medicine. He says he bas fever." I forgot to inquire abont him Ull two days after. "How ls the dlahwasherr 1 said. "He Is much better, your honor." "4I1, then he took the physic?" "No, your highness. The bazaar cooly took the physic'* "The bazaar cooly P I exclaimed. 'Wbat for?" "The dishwasher said: "Cooly goes errands. He may fetch me the physic' So tbe cooly took the letter. Shop mnster prepared physic, then told bazaar cooly to drink it Cooly said: 'Not for me Is the medicine, but for another man. I take It to hlm.' 'Not so,' said the shop master. 'The mistress has written, "Give to bearer," and she means you must drink It here.'

There ls one little lustrument lo which the Interest of nil classes of people In this country never diminishes through all the changing seasons of the year, from the tin-it day of January to the last dny of Dei-ember, It regulates the business pulse of tlie nation nud is the shrine to wbii'h men of nil occupations turn. And this little Instrument Is the thermometer, which bears tlie name of I'lihreuheii. Before tbe seventeenth century men could only Judge of tbe amount of heat prevailing ut an*" place by their per sonul sensations und could only speak of the weather iu u very Indefinite way us hot or very hot. cold or very cold. Iu that century several attempts ���vere made by scientific experimenters by means of tubes containing oil. spirits of wine und other substances-to establish u satisfactory means of measuring beat, but none of tbem proved successful. Even Sir Isaac Newton, who applied bis greut mind to this work, nud ulso the noted astronomer. Hnlley. failed lu their attempts to produce 11 heat measure. It was reserved to Gabriel Daniel Fahrenheit, nu obscure and poor man, u native of Dautzlg, to give to the world tbe Instrument which bas proved to be so serviceable to mankind. He had fulled In business as a merchant and, having a taste for mechanics und chemistry, begun a series of experiments for the production of thermometers. At first he made these Instruments with alcohol, but soon became convinced thut the semisolid mercury was a more suitable article to use In the glass tube. Fahrenheit bud removed from Dunt- zlg to Amsterdam, and tbere ubout tbe year 1720 be made the mercury thermometer which bus ever since been fashioned much like tbe original. Tbe basis of bis plati was to mark i>n the tube tbe two points respectively at which water Is congealed uud boiled und to graduate the space between He began with an arbitrary marking, beginning with 32 degrees, because lie found that tbe mercury descended 32 degrees more before coming to wbat he thought tbe extreme cold resulting from a mixture of Ice, water and sal ammoniac. In 1724 be published a distinct treatise ou tbe subject of his experiments and tbe conclusions tbat bad resulted therefrom. Celsius of Stockholm soon after suggested tbe more rational graduation of u hundred degrees between freezing und boiling point. This was tbe centigrade thermometer. Reaumur proposed another graduation which has been accepted by the French, but by far the largest port of the civilized world Fahrenheit's scale has been accepted and used, with 32 degrees as freezing. 55 degrees as temperate. 00 degrees as blood heat and 212 degrees as boiling point It ls true that the zero of Fahrenheit's scale ls a solecism since It does not mark the extreme to wliich heat can be abstracted. This little blemish, however, does uot seem to have beeu of nny practical consequence. Arctic explorers have persisted In describing temperatures below tbe zero of Fahrenheit, ond scientists bave produced artificially temperatures far below any ever dreamed of by tbe thermometer maker of Amsterdam. Tbere Is doubt as to the year of the deatb of Fahrenheit, but it is generally placed in 1740. The Obsolescent Honeymoon. Honeymoons ore going out of fash- Ion and will probably eventually disappear.

Paralysis is often imitated by beggars and so closely that there ia no detecting the imposition. A fellow is directed how to hang his wrist loosely down dropping the fingers of one hand and to drag the limbs in such a manner as to imitate a paralytic stroke to the life. He is drilled up to the proper business mark by marching him around the beggars' kitchen for hours at a stretch and night after night. This is continued until the patient can bear a sudden and unexpected prick with a needle or even- the touch of a redhot iron without relapsing into his normal attitude. Not many years ago one of these mock paralytics, who was accustomed to throw off hia seeming infirmity and play the burglar by way of a change, was caught in the very act of breaking into a house and committed for trial. Here he got up such a semblance of hopeless paralysis as deceived everybody. When the trial came on he was carried into the court on a stretcher and laid at lull length in the dock. Everybody, including the judge and jury, commiserated the case, and he escaped with one year's imprisonment instead of a long term of penal servitude. Tiie doctor of the prison ol whinh the convict was next transferred felt sure that the whele thing was a sham and tried all the ordinary methods of detection, including a liberal use of the gulvanic battery, but without effect. At length a great heap of damp straw was collected in the jail yard, and the scoundrel, still stretched on his pallet which he never quitr ted was placed thereon. The straw wns fired on all aides throwing out a little flame and denae volumes of choking smoke. This did the business, and quickly too. In less than j minute the paralytic astonished everybody but the doctor by bonne- ing "ont ol the straw with the agility ol a deer. "The game is up!" he exclaimed, with a laugh, when he had done coughing, adding in a tone of triumph, "Anyhow, I have cheated the law out of six years"' The torture such people inflict on themselves for weeks and months at a time and voluntarily is simply incredible.

Queen Alexandra, who takes the keenest interest in photography, is busily adding to her collection ol scrap-books during her Btay in Denmark. Most of the Quean's scrap- books are filled with snapshots taken hv her self. Many of these she ha.- developed and printed, but as a rule she sends the films to a professional photographer. During the past lew montha, how ever, the Queen haa been collecting snapshots of herself published by en terprising London newspapers, and her sister, the Dowager Empress ol Russia, with whom she is staying at the tiny villa which they jointly leased near Copenhagen, looks with envy on these "tributes" to a Queen who does not fear anarchists. In Russia the Dowager Empress wus rarely snapshotted, simply because any one with a camera in a crowd would be immediately arrested on suspicion of carrying a bomb_ whereas Queen Alexandra is "taken" by amateurs nnd professionals alike a dozen times in the course of a short public journey. Queen Alexandra has her little weaknesses like all women, nnd she bus scribbled little notes against all ��he newspaper snapshots in her new scrap books. In several cases she has written: "Looking my best," in others, "Very poor snapshot." KAISER IS NIMROD. Emperor's Hunting Achievements Entirely Outclass Those of Roosevelt. Among the many trials that President Roosevelt haa had to bear is the accusation that he resembles the Lm- peror of Germany. The loudness oi both for hunting has been pointed out as an example ol the likemindodnesB of the President and the Kaiser. Statistics have recently been published which cast light upon the hunting achievements of William II. They make Theodore Roosevelt's occasional excursions in search of well-deserved rest and a few grizzly bears seem Sunday school picnics by comparison. They put the strenuous occupant ol the White House forever in the class of milksops and mollycoddles. The official statistician to the huntsman Kaiser reports that his Majesty has bagged a total of 47.5H pieces of <rnme in a period of thirty years. Over eighteen thousand pheasants were as- sosaiii'itod, nnd seventeen thousand hares were iv't off in their prime. One can go on down the list of boars, rabbits, stags, etc., until there seems to be scarcely a variety of bird or beast that has escaped the imperial bullet. The Emperor even invaded the realms of Neptune, foi we are told that one lone, solitary whale perished in supreme honor and agony. On one short winter's day the Kaiser, unaided, shot 1,053 pheasants.

The shrew, or shrewmpuse, as It Is commonly called, la fonnd In nearly all parts of the world. It ls distinguished by an elongated, pointed muzzle, small eyes, plantigrade, six toed feet and glands tbat secrete a musky fluid. Altogether tt closely resembles a mouse, but It Is really not related to tbe mouse family. When at home It Is either under a pile of rubbish or ln a bole which It has burrowed In tbe earth. It is nocturnal in Its habits, but perfectly barm- leas. Yet at one time it was much disliked und persecuted because it was thought to he a dangerous, miseIvevous animal. Among the Italians tbe notion was prevalent that the bi'te of a shrew was* extremely poisonous. Tbe French and tbe English believed tbat If a shrew ran over an animal's foot the animal felt great pain and eventually became paralyzed; hence If a horse, a cow or a gout became a little stiff ln Its limbs the foolish people at once declared It "shrew struck," and tbe poor shrews had to suffer ln consequence. Of course the "shrew struck" animal had to have something to cure it, so an ash tree was selected and a deep hole was bored Into Its trunk. Then a shrew was captured, put alive Into thn hole, the hole was securely plugged, and tbe Innocent little animal waa Ielt to die of starvation. The Ignorant helleved that af'��*r such an act the nsh tree had power to cure "shrew struck" animals, and whenever an animal became Inactive or n little numb In Its limbs Its owner hurried to the "shrew ash," cut a switch from It and switched the ���shrew struck" beast. The smarting roused by tbe switching naturally made the helpless animal move about as much as It possibly could, and in 1 ���dioct time it was pronounced "cured * TWO 'MERICANA MEN.
