"Spooning" parties are popnlar in some quarters. They take their name from a good old English word which was intended to ridicule the alleged fan tastic actions of a young man or a young woman who is in love. For some reason, which no one ever conld explain, every body pokes fun at the lover. In fact, that unhappy character is never heroic in real life, no matter what great gobs of heroism are piled about him on the stage, and in all the romantio story books. The girl in love and the boy in love are said to be "spoony. " When a "spooning" party is given, the committee in charge of the event re ceives a spoon from each person who at tends, or else presents each guest with a spoon. These spoons are fancifully dressed in male and female attire, and are mated either by the similarity of costume or by a distinguishing ribbon. The girls and boys whose spoons are mates are expected to take care of each other during the continuance of the so cial gathering. Of course the distribution of the spoons is made with the greatest possible care fulness, the aim being to so place them as to properly fit the case of the young people to whom they are presented. The parties are usually given by the young people of some neighborhood where the personal preference of each spoony is well known, and they are the source of no end of fun. It is possible also that they serve as aids to matrimony as well, and are therefore commendable, since an avowal is made more easy to a diffi dent swain after he feels that his pas sion is not a secret, but that his weak ness for a "spoony" maiden is known to his friends and enemies on the commit tee which dispenses the spoons. It may be mentioned that after the spoons have been distributed among the guests, each couple retires for consultation regarding the reasons which caused the award of mated spoons in their case. This consul tation is known by the name of "spoon ing. " St. Louis Republic. Shakespeare's Name. It has often been a puzzle to students of Shakespeare why his name is spelled in so many different ways. Shakespeare himself is said to have signed his name on d fferent occasions "Shakspeare" and ' ' tihakespere, "and learned disquisitions have been written to prove which is the proper spelling. None perhaps was more amusing than the "weather" reason given in 1851 by Albert Smith, who averred that he had found it in the Har kiaii MSS. It was as follows: How dyd Shakespeare spell hys name?

Ala! That Human Nature Should Be Bo 'Weak. ,. A South Side young man who-some times writes verses had a friend who often paints pictures. Each of them, in addition to having a young wife and a very young baby, was satisfied that his particular branch of art was the most successful medium for the expression of the finer feelings. The two families lived in neighbor ing fiats and were always very friendly. The wives chatted together about the best brand of baby food, and the chil dren rolled about on the floor and claw ed each other's noses the highest evi dence of mutual esteem. As a rule, the two young men didn't discuss art when they met, for they knew that they couldn't agree on the subject. So they argued on the silver question for neither of them knew anything about it. One evening the young man who sometimes writes poetry called with his wife and baby on the young man who often paints pictures. "I'm writing some verses about my baby," said the first young man. "Well, I'm' painting a picture of mine," said the second. "I'll tell you what I'll do," said the poetry man. "I'll write a poem about your baby if you'll paint a picture of mine," "Agreed, " responded the artist readi ly. "I'll do it" Then the families were together more than ever, and the mothers compared their babies minutely as to markings, disposition, prospects and other things. At last the young man who sometimes writes poetry finished his verses, and the young man who often paints pic tures finished his portrait. So far every thing had been kept a friendly secret. The two families gathered one even ing to hear the poetry and view the pic ture. First each father showed what he had done for his baby, and the whole company went into ecstasies. "Best thing you ever did," said the poetry young man. "Best thing you ever did," said the artist Then they drew long breaths, and the poetry young man read his poem about bis friend's baby, and the artist showed his picture of his friend's baby. There was a silence. "You didn't catch the delicate sug gestion of intellectuality in my baby," said the wife of the poetry young man. "And you failed entirely to do jus tice to my baby," said the wife of the artist. "You can't see anything bat your own baby. " J And then there were other words of a similar character, only more emphatic. I Presently the wife of the poetry ' young man gathered up her baby and went home, followed by her husband. Since that time the two families do not know each other. Chicago Record. What She Wanted. "I swear" he cried passionately. "Don't," she interrupted. - "It's wrong to swear. " "Why mock me?" he asked bitterly. "I am old, it is true, but I love yon fondly, truly, devotedly. " "Prove it," she said coldly. "I am young and beautiful and have had many men at my feet young men in the flush of manhood. Yon are old enough to" "Stay!" he cried. "Do not think of my age! Think only of my love. Think of all I would do for yon, all I would give to" "What would you give?" she inter rupted. "Anything, everything. I would give my life" "I don't want it" "What more can I do? What would you have?" "Well, I was thinking of your insur ance. How much is it?"

WONDERFUL GOLD Ll.u . w"" .- .Representatives Frorn All Over the World ''. Will Gather In London. The sixth international geographical oongress will soon be held in London, and the . pro gramme gives as surance of an event of unusual interest and con sequent advance in geographical knowledge. . The congress is under the patronage of the queen of England and the Prince of Wales, and among the honorary presi dents are the justice dalt. ting of the Bel gians and the Duke of York, who is the honorary president of the Royal Geo graphical society. The president of the congress is Clements I Markham, pres ident of the Royal Geographical society. The American Geographical society will be ably represented by its president, ex-Chief Justice Charles P. Daly of New York, who is one of the vice presi dents of the congress, and Prof essor Wil liam Ldbbey, Jr. , of Princeton college, the foreign correspondent of this society. Justice Daly will be accompanied by Paul du Chailln, the African explorer. It is expected that there will be a large representation in the congress from all the European countries, and a num ber from Asia. As it is held in the vaca tion period there will be present many professors from the leading colleges and universities. The headquarters of the congress will be the house of the Royal Geographical society, Saville row, Burlington Gardens, and the soci ety offers to all members the privilege of fellows during their stay in London. Justice Daly, America's chief repre sentative in the congress, has not' only attained eminence as a jurist, but has also become prominent in the line of geographical research. His fondness for geography is doubtless due to early ex periences, when, for a number of years, he was a sailor. Judge Daly served for 40 years as judge of the common pleas court in New York and recently retired from the bench by reason of the age limit ' STARTED THE CRUSADE. Mother Stewart Is an Honored Veteran In the Temperance Cause. Among the many prominent temper ance workers who attended the recent convention of the World's Woman's Christian Temperance union in London none was received with more enthusi asm or attracted more attention than the gray haired, sweet voiced "crusader," Mrs. Eliza D. Stewart, known the world over as "Mother Stewart " Her good UBS. ELIZA D. STKWAET. work of nearly 20 years ago, when through her efforts the British Woman's Temperance union was organized, had not been forgotten, and the reception ac corded her when she spoke at the City Temple amounted to an ovation. Mrs. Stewart is a native of Ohio and was born at Piketon April 25, 1816. She was left an orphan at 12 and thrown upon her own resources. Early she de veloped those sterling characteristics which made her so useful in educational and reform work. She was educated at Marietta seminary and adopted teaching as a profession, attaining a representa tive standing among the educators of the state. She has been twice married, the sec ond time to Hiram Stewart, who was a stanch advocate of the temperance principles she advocated and greatly as sisted her in the work. She had no chil dren of her own, but took to her moth erly heart the two sons of her second husband, conscientiously devoting her self to their education and moral devel opment The husband and sons went to the front when the war came, and later, impelled by a strong sense of duty, she also went to the scene of action and ten derly cared for the sick and wounded soldiers. It was these loving ministra tions that earned for her the title of "Mother Stewart, "by which she always loves to be called. In 1872 Mrs. Stewart made a stirring address before the first mass meeting in Springfield, O., inaugurating the tem perance crusade, the influence of which has become felt throughout the length and breadth of the land. About that time several suits were successfully brought against liquor sellers by the wives of drunkards under the Adair civil damage law, and in a number of these cases Mrs. Stewart assisted the prosecuting attorney, making vigorous and effective appeals to the juries. Mother Stewart s effective work in her own locality soou attracted wide at tention, and she was in great demand as a temperance lecturer and organizer throughout the country. Her beneficent and effective temperance work has cov ered a wide range of activity, including the writing of books, periodicals and newspaper articles. Her books are "Memories of the Crusade" and "The Crusader In Great Britain. " A Very Honest View. The young man whose salary wasn't long enough by several lengths to reach to all tho points he wanted it to had been harassed that morning by numer ous persons with bills and bills and bills. About noon, at which time he had lost count of tbem, his landlady's husband appeared with another for the past month's provender. "What's this?" he asked, displaying considerable annoyance. "Your board bill for the month." "Well, I'll not pay it," he exclaimed, throwing it on Ks desk. "Do all you people think I have no use for money ex cept to pay bills with?" and he invited the caller to get out Detroit tree tfcea. ., Sow It Is Manufactured and Some of Its Peculiarities. . . The process by which gold is made into thin leaves is called, gold beating. As - yet the use. of machinery for this purpose is very- limited, nearly all gold leaf being beaten by hand. First the gold is cast into oblong in gots about three-fourths of an inch in width and weighing two ounces each. These ingots are passed between pol fched steel rollers and flattened out into ribbons of about an eight-hundredth of an inch in thickness. The ribbons are softened by heat and crj; into pieces an inch square. One hundred and fifty of these pieces are placed between vellum leaves, one piece above another, and the entire pile is inclosed in a double parchment case and beaten with a 16 pound hammer until the inch pieces are extended to 4 inch squares. They are then taken from the case, and each square is cut into four pieces. The pieces thus obtained are then placed between gold beater's skin a delicate membrane prepared from the large intestine of the ox made into piles, inclosed in a parchment case and again beaten, but with a hammer of lighter weight Still the leaves are not thin enough, and once more each leaf is cut into four pieces and again beaten. This last quar tering and beating produces 2,400 leaves, and the thickness of each leaf is about one two-hundred-thousandths of an inch. Gold is so malleable that it is possible to obtain a still greater degree of thin ness, but not profitably. These thin leaves are taken up with wood pinchers, placed on a cushion, blown out flat and carefully cut into squares 8J inches in size. The squares are placed, between the leaves of paper books, which have previously been rub bed with red chalk to prevent adhesions of the gold, each paper book containing 25 squares or leaves of gold, and in this form the leaf is sold, not by weight, but by a superficial measure. Philadelphia Times. WHY DOGS BARK. A Writer Affords an Explanation aa Given to Him by an Indian. In writing of the native dogs of Cen tral America, Frederick Boyle brings forward a theory as to how dogs form the habit of barking. He was discussing with an old resident of the. country some traits of the coyote, as the na tive wolf is called, but which more near ly resembles the dog. Dogs will never go wild so long as they can find a master to serve, and more especially trained dogs. The coyote never barks, and only gallops when pur sued. "Why don't these coyotes bark like other dogs?" I asked an old Indian, pointing to one I was trying to reclaim. "And why do they only howl and the pups grunt?" His answer was, "He won't learn. " "Not learn?" said L "What do you mean?" "No," he replied, "not learn, for if he were of an honest breed he would bark, to try to imitate his master, or, at all events, the other dogs, bnt all barking proceeds from dogs imitating their master's shout The master shouts to drive in cattle to the corral, and the dog barks also. In fact, the dog imitates his master when he barks ; he tries to speak, but cannot " I give this curious observation as the only attempt I ever heard to account for the barking of our tame dogs. No wild breeds make any noise except, howling and snarling, nor, under the best cir cumstances, will they learn to bark un til the third or fourth generation. Pittsburg Dispatch. Glass Houses. There were whole streets in Tyre en tirely occupied by glass works, and it is stated that the first glass houses were erected in Tyre. The glass houses of Alexandria were highly celebrated for the ingenuity and skill of their work men and the extent of their manufac tures. Layard, in writing about his discov eries among the ruins of Nineveh and Babylon, says: "In one chamber were found two entire glass bowls, with frag ments of others. These bowls are prob ably of the same period as the small bottle found in the rums of the north west palace during the previous excava tions, and now m the British museum. On this highly interesting relic is the name of Sargon, with his title of king of Assyria, in cuneiform characters, and the figure of a lion. We are, therefore, able to fix its date to the latter part of the seventh century B. C. It is conse quently the most ancient known speci men of transparent glass." Boston Herald. A Bit of Black. Nothing is complete without its bit of black. It is a bit of cunning the French have taught us and is most valuable, for it immediately adds the touch we have strived for. No matter what the color or material if not pointelle or strip ed with black, a bunchy black chou, bands of ribbon or pipings of satin are used. There are no end of means of deco ration, and all most effective too. So universal has this fashion become that neither frock nor bonnet escapes it Boston Traveller. Woolens.

A Clever Way to Get a Dinner. - I happened to be one of a party of six dining the other night at an, up town restaurant Most of us were strangers to each other, having met only fjx the aft ernoon in the course of business. . There were a banker, a politician, a lawyer, a theatrical manager and a something else, I do not yet. know what, in the company. The 'something else made himself ex ceedingly agreeabla He was, in fact the life of the party. He was politeness itself, and his wit and epigrams were fetching. After dinner he rather sud denly and mysteriously dropped out of sight and was missed. "Who was the gentleman?" I asked of the theatrical manager. "I'm sure I don't know," he replied. "I thought he was a friend of yours. " "No, I never saw him before. I sup posed he was a friend of yours, " I said. Then I put the same question to each of the others and found that the man was unknown to any of the party. He had simply invited himself to dine with us, behaved like a jolly good fellow and disappeared at the right moment The only thing we have against him is that he forgot to pay his bilL New York Press.
