"You have probably never thought of tobacco smoke aa a preservative influ ence, I'll venture," remarked Chattield Arthur to several companions In the La clede. "Of course we all know that spirits, and especially alcohol, will keep whole most anything you are of a mind to commit to its permeating care. I have found tobacco smoke to be.efraally good, with no worse results as regards odor than alchol, unless you dislike to bacco. I know that 1 have put bugs, worms and various kinds of reptiles 'in oulllco nud liuttj kept liit'iil IkiX years by simply blowing the bottle full of strong tobacco smoke and sealing it properly. "The perfect forms would remain for years, in fact just as long as the bottle remained perfectly sealed. Upon open ing it the result has invariably been that is, in cases of long standing a com plete collapse. Still the effect is no wors6 than that of alcohol, for one never thinks of removing a preservative life form from the alcohol. When one puts a form in alcohol, it is understood to be merely for looks and not for examination or han dling." St. Louis Globe-Democrat. A Point For Travelers. The advice, is given by a well known society woman who travels a great deal to wear one's best underclothing while on the cars. "Never mind if it does get soiled," she says. "I have known of the most fla;raiit cases of neglect during railroad accidents of people whose un derwear looked as though they might be roor. This is a shameful fact, but the people who pick up the wounded after a wreck are intensely human. Many of them do not propose to open their homes to sufferers unless they are to be paid for it. They judge of the ability of peo ple to pay largely by their underwear, as the outside garb of most well to do people is more or less the same in these days." The idea of arraying one's self with view to accidents when starting out on a journey is perhaps likely to suggest useless forebodings, and this advice is likely to engender a pessimism regarding the character of one's fellow men, but it may be worth heeding. Her Point of View in New York Times. Testing Pure Water. It is one of the easiest things in the world to tell pure water from the im pure. If you want to test the color of tho water, just fill a colorless glass bottle with the water and look tlirough it at some black object, and the distinctive ness with which you can see the object will give you an idea as to the amount of clay or sand there is in the water. Then pour out one-half the water, cork the bottle tightly and set It in a warm place for about 24 hours. Remove the cork and smell the air in the bottle. If there is an offensive odor, even the slightest, the water is unfit for domestic uses. Well water, no matter how bright and sparkling, is, nine times out of ten, pu trescent. Then, as a matter of course, decomposition is sure to set in in a day or two if yon put the bottle in a warm place. New York Telegram.

In 181)0 St. Gall sent out to the world near .O0O,OUO worth of embroidery. Half of that came to this country to ndorn the petticoats and so forth of. American worn en. In early times embroidery was made by haml aud it was worth its weight in gold The knowledge of i he craft spread through Appetizell. Tlmr!.- and St. Gall, three Clintons of the Alps country. A great industry grew The technical skill and readiness of hand of the Appenzell women were marvelous, and gradually the exquisite embroidery made by them became famous all over the world. Very many thousands of the people are engaged wholly in the skilled business. Girls were traiued to it from early childhood. Ai that time nil the lieautiful work was done with the hand and in the people's homes. More than half a century ai;o the hand machine was introduced, and that rapidly changed the whole situation. Today poa sibly not 5 per cent, of the embroideries are made exclusively by liand, and theae only of speciul articles, nne aud expensive The band machine win soon in the bouses of half the peasants, and factories were founded, where many machines were col lected and worked, but still by hand power only. The character of the work was then and remains unw excellent, but the pro ductiou was comparatively slow. The prof its were usually large to the dealers, but the embroiderer barely made a good living, as it was always necessary for him to pay an assistant known as the "threader" to help work his machine. Washington Cor. St, Louis Globe Democrat. Why People Marvel at Telepathy. Nothing in nature is really abnormal. It is most probable that a power to Influence the minds of others, with a susceptibility to be influenced by other minds, exists in human beings universally, in a greater or less degree. To the hypothesis, abstracted ly considered, that mind can act on miud directly that is, not only through no known medium, but without any medium whatever I see no valid objection. The action of mind on body, and that of body on mind, is far more mysterious thau any action of mind on mind. For it is com paratively easy to understand that things of the same kind can affect one another directly. Yet to many persons mysteries with which they are familiar seem to be oo mysteries at all; tbey wonder only at that which is uniisttnl, and marvel at tele pathic phenomena aa savages at an eclipse.

Oarlnc the Carnli.l Id the Corso It Was the Duty of llverybody lo lie Gay. In the good old times and by the good old times we a. 1 of us mean the days that are past and are no more, the days of our youth, which we remember with a aad pleasure, and the joys of which we exag gerate, perhaps, while the pains we forget the carnival in the Corso, which, alasl is now almost a thing of the past, was a spectacle and an experience full of delight. On that week of saturnalia the old sights and sounds, the old hubbub and gayety aud license was renewed, every folly "was tudulged In and a careless gladness ani mated the world. Kvery window and bal cony was draped with carpets, tapestries and flowers; gay faces looked out every where and glad laughter tilled the air. There were masks and harlequins and punchinelil and masquerading and strange costumes and singing and mock gallantry and cries of joy on all sides. It was the duty of every one to be gay. The God Moinus reigned. All the worid flocked in from the country, and the old dresses and costumes which in every town in the vicinity of Rome were then worn daily, were to be seen. Now those cos tumes have for the most part utterly dis appeared, and are only to be seen now and then, or on the persons of the models who pose for the artists. Tbey were very gay. very various, ami It was a pleasure'to see them. Now they have given way to the commonplace and shabby dresses of today. But in the old carnival they were every where to be seen. Improvised balconies and stagings were erected all aloug the Corso, and these were filled with country girls in their costumes. Up and down the street, In double files, slowly and at snail's pace, throngs of car riages followed each other, tilled with flowers which the occupants scattered right and left, laughing the while they pursued their slow way through the dense crowds that filled the street, flowers and con fetti showered upon them as they passed, and there was a general hubbub of jollity and confusion and madness, as if old Heme's descendants were still alive aud shouting in triumph. W. W. Story in Scribuer. A Touch of flumnn Kntiir. It Is impossible for one who has been "human" to forget that he or she was "human," nud everything tends to prove this assertion. A story is being told that brings out this truth. In a convent near St. Louis there is a nun past middle age. She is as pure and devout as It Is possible to be. That Is to say, she is entirely tin worldly. Many years ago, when she wa a young girl, bur father owned a large plan tation and numerous slaves in Kentucky. At tliut time there was a negro slave who loved the beautiful young glrL It was not the devotion of a faithful servant, hut the adoration of a lover. Though lie never made nn open avowal of his passion, be followed her arotiud aud watched her uutil his love became a matter of public notoriety. The girl was very devout and finally left her borne to enter a convent. She entered in the bloom of young womanhood nud is now a woman advanced in life. A few days ago members of her family from Keutucky visited the convent, where she cow Is. Upon seeing them visious of the old, old days and the worshiping love of the dusky slave must have crossed her mind, for her first ques tion waa as to what had become of the negro lad who had persecuted her with bis udoration. St. Louis Republic. A Zulu Porter. Among the queer odds and ends of hu mnnity that have lodged hereabout none is queerer than a certain Zulu, ho may lie seen any morning at the Court street ala tiou of the It inns County Klevated road, where be now pursues the peaceful occupii tion of porter. This gentleman may be recognized from other Africans by a huge topknot of uutural wool, which began to grow ninny years ago in his native land He also wears a pair of large goggles, through w hich his eyes gaze with an ap pearance of great restf illness. The Zulu Is put down on the pay rolls of the company as Thomas Murphy. When he is at home In Ztiluland he is called Quongo Pcrcerlab. Mr. .Murphy says lie was born In Gilou In 1850. He came to this country with Chief Two Strike, and was exhibited by Bam u in for several years as a nntive warrior, which he was. He also whistled. He says that in his native undress, with an assegai in baud, he is imposing to see. In the course of his wanderings he came upon an American negrcss, whom he loved and by whom be was loved with a passiou all too fierce for lasting. Tbey separated, but not before be had got a good vocabu lary of English words. Of the nlue years of bis living away from Zululnnd six were spent in museums. The last three years Mr. Murphy baa earned hts living by the sweat of bis brow. New York Sun. Art Id Everyday Life. At the present time there is a strong tendency toward the artislio in all things connected with daily life. It is considered, and there is wisdom In the Idea, that beauty added to an object does not detract from its usefulness, but rather Increases it. Articles in everyday request do not serve their purpose less truly if they plcaso the eye, and by grace of form aud beauty of coloring educate the nature to find some thing of the artist's pleasure in the or diuary things which make the setting and framework of daily life. This strong artistic impulse has shown Itself in some directions iu a reaction in favor of medimvnl type in articles both decorative aud useful. Old china, ancient jewelry, antique furniture are eagerly sought after; and old luce, after having been consigned almost to complete oblivion, has once more reappeared out of the buried post to delight an age which dotes on an tiquity, with ita fragile, filmy tissues.

The m in criticised was conspicuous, and It was all because be hadu't sulHcii-ut knowledge of culchaw and depawtment. He was faultlessly dressed, but that didn't save him. Whether to take soup from the side or from the end of a spoon is a mat ter of culture, but whether to carry the gloves with the fiugers forwanl or with the lingers hack is a matter of culchaw Kverybody that ia anybody knows alH snout culture ana deportment, but cul chaw aud depnwtment include the little niceties of manner and conduct about which many people have a great deal to learn. Without culchaw and depawtment it la impossible to be a swell. THE WALK. A swell must walk at times, no matter bow many broughams and horses be may nave, ami it is no more thau proper to give the walk precedence. The walk is an ao quirement a man gets very early In life. out he never begins to walk in the nroner way uutil lie ia proposed for memhership in a good club. This is the wav lira stiff, no elasticity; body well forward, no elasticity; head well back, no elasticity, and steps about two and a half feet long. tI course there are variations. Going to a funeral the man tiltnot .-l,n,,i.l briskly mid as if he enjoyed it. Therehv he demonstrates his perfect repose of man nerantl shows that it is not influenced by mere external circumstances. Going to a wedding be should walk slowly and look bored and thoroughly convinced that mar riage is a failure. Iu entering a ballroom the walk mav lie elaborated to almost any extent. A man should wear his evening walk Just as he wears his eveulng clothes, for the occasion. lhen there are variations of the walk aside from those of formality and stiffness. 1 he most noticeable of these is that em ployed when the expert walker walks with a "gel." When thus agreeably employed he should iuvuriubly face bcr and walk sideways like a crab. This will at first be fouud rather dillicult, but practice makes perfect, and the "gel" who will not put up with being stepped on a few times and bumped with a pair of uiiacciistouied knees a few times has not a proper appreciation of culchaw and depnsvtmeiit. Iu walking with the gel the student should care fully avoid keeping step. The step to gether Is for comuion soldiers, convicts. clerks going together to business and cad who disregard culchaw and depawtment. Gentlemen never walk iu step It shows too much premeditation and thought, and is not in keeping with the mental idleness which should characterize a gentlemen. IMI'lllil ANCK OF TIIK BOW. Walking having been considered, It I now necessary to take up standing still and sitting down. To describe these no complishments It is perhaps sufficient to say that in standing the real swell should look as though he would prefer to sit, and in sitting he should convey the impression that he would prefer to stand. If he does this he can hardly full to look sufficiently uoren. Now comes the bow, a most useful ao complishmeut, in fact the most useful one In connection with culchnw and depawt mem. A man of real culchaw should be able to Insult a man grossly with his bow noon occasion, and he should also be able to bow so that the bowee would not Ileal tate about lending him 1100 without secu rlty. 1 Ins bow ia moat dillicult. All Itows may lie divided Into two classes the short bow without raising the hat. which mny be either Insulting or pleasing, and the long Lord Chesterfield bow for 'gels," which mny convey either mere recognition or llic deepest regard. Forth short bnv merely snap the head. If It Is intended to lie Insulting the person to be insulted should be lookorl at with a sort of 'Uy-Jove l-don't-see-yoti and l-dou't like your looks" stare, and then the head hould I snapped very short. lo please It should be moved slower and with a smile. This can hardly fail to please. The long Ixird Chesterfield bow I much more laborious, but It Is also much more impressive. To accomplish it grasp the hat firmly by the front of the rim. Imagine a fly alsiut eighteen lucbea from the tip of the now and try to hit It with Hi crown of the hat. then smile aa If In exultation at having hit It, and aa the hat la replaced look at the bowee for approba tiou and appreciation of the dexterity di played. CAItltYINO STICKS, GLOVES, KTO. Varying regard for the bowee may be In dlcnted by the enthusiasm shown In hit ting at the fly It la well to practice iu the mirror Shuking band is much less a part of culchaw and depawtment than it once waa. It la too much work. Men don't do It very much, and as a rule when nn acquaintance o!Tr-i to shake hands it is quite proper not to see his hand and to merely bow. If It is an undesirable acquaintance, look at his hand as though there was some doubt about Ita cleanliness or aa though his glove were not In good taste, aud then da liver the stony stare aud short bow It I sometimes necessary to shake hands. For Instance, a prospective father In law may be an old timer and used to shaking hands. If h la to te humored It should be done daintily. The hand should be presented on a level with his tipper shirt stud, and the motion of tbe shake should be straight up aud down. Fewer well dressed aud eulchawed men carry walking sticks now than formerly. If a stick ia carried it should not be walked with. It should be light, but should Im press the people that it Is heavy, aud that tLe mau of culchnw is tired of carrying it. It should hnuy head down and buck prefer ably In the left band The gloves should a. ways be carried with the fingers forward.
