The Chinese suppose that the number of blossoms on a "China lily" indicate the degree of good luck in store for its possessor in the new year. The Eugene Guard makes a lfttle kick at the idea of The Dalles gettiug $100, 000 from the government for a public building. The Guard is needlessly wasting its strength. It will be time enough to kick in earnest when the ap propriation is made. . The Chronicle taliavna McKinley spoke the sentiments of the ast majority of all classes and political creeds west of the Mississippi when ha " said : "There is one thing that they all might as well make up their minda to down east: That they can't have wool free when it comes from the sheen's back rnd put a tariff on it when it comes on our backs. They cannot have wool come into their factories in New Eng- land free, and come out of their factor ies with a tariff to the American people." Some folks are poking fun at the Chronicle reporter for saying that the grounds around the Joles mansion were now beautified by the presence of "a pair of peacocks a male and a female." Now really all the Chronicle did was t follow a very common usage of the word, as iny one may see by consulting Web ster, and apply it to the species instead of the sex. However the blunder is not ibalf so bad as that made by a country anan of the writer who was at one time, and may be yet an alderman for one of the wards of New York City. At a meeting of the council a question came -up for beautifying Central Park when a Mr. Murphy arose and said : "Misther President I am jist afther payin' a yisit to Ynrrip an whin there I spint some time in the city of Venice where I wus ' mightily taken with the beautiful gon--dolias that they hiv on the bay and I move you sur.that we send over for a dozen of them an put them in the Cin tral Park lakes'. Before the motion was put our friend arose and said, "I would loike to ax me frind Murphy how much these gondilias would be likely to cost," Mr. Murphy replied that he though they could be laid down in New-York for about 200 a piece. "In that case" replied the Irishman I objict to spindin' so much money on thim and I move as m am ind merit that we send for a couple -of them, a male and a female, and let mature take its coorse." What a, Baby I11 Za One Hour. - TtJncle Will, the good natured bachelor of the family, was left in charge of the baby one day while every one else was out, and out of curiosity he made a list of what the baby did in one hour. Hera it is: Yelled fifteen minutes without taking breath. (Uncle Will declares solemnly that this is a true statement.) Pulled out enough hair from his uncle's head and whiskers to stuff a sofa pillow. Crocked the wall paper as high as he could reach with the poker. . Broke a stereoscope by sitting down on it. Swallowed six buttons and a good part of a spool of thread. Emptied the contents of his mother's workbasket down the furnace register. Tried to squeeze the head of the cat into a tin cup, and was scratched -badly in the attempt. Knocked the head off of a fine wax doll belonging to his older sister by try ing to drive a tack into a toy wagon with it. . Fell off the edge of the whatnot add brought down with him two costly vases which were ruined. Broke two panes of window glass with a cane which uncle let him have. Fell into the coalhod and spoiled his new white dress. Set fire to the carpet while uncle was out of the room hunting up'something to amuse him. . Crawled tinder the bed and refused to come out unless uncle would give him the molasses jug. Got twisted into the rungs of a chair which had to be broken to get him out. Poured a pitcher of water into his mother's best shoes. Finally, when he saw his' mother com ing, he ran out to the porch and tumbled off the steps, making his nose bleed and tearing a hole a foot square In his dress. And yet Uncle Will thinks that boy will makv something yet. Youth's Com panion. ; no Dewcmduil of Two Sisters Aro avt the Bead of Many Conatriea. It is not generally known that the reigning houses of Europe, with few ex ceptions, are descended from two sisters, the one being the mother of almost all of the Catholic princes and princesses, and the other of the majority of those of the evangelical confession. The late Frederick Theodore Bichter, the his torian, first discovered this interesting historical fact in 1876. The genealogical records of the various families in proof of the assertion of Bichter, however, have been published for the first time by Dr. Ottokar Lorenz, professor of history in the University of Jena. The parents of .the two sisters whose descendants have, become so powerful were two German rulers of comparative insignificance: Duke Louis Rudolph of Brunswick-Wolfenbnettel, who died in 1735, and his wife, Christine Louis, who departed this life in 1747 a daughter of Prince Albrecht Ernst of Oettingen. The elder daughter of the ducal pair, the Princess ; Elizabeth Christine, after her conversion to the Catholic cfturch, married in 1708 the subsequent Emperor Charles-VI of Germany. . . The - Empress Elizabeth Christine, through her daughter,' Maria Theresia, the ancestor of the houses of Habsburg Lothringia, Tuscany, Sicily and Modena, and through the marriages of female descendants the reigning families of Portugal, Brazil and Italy (Savoy-Ca-rignan), Saxony, the present reigning families of .Spain and Bavaria, the Span ish Bourbons and all of the Orleans fam ily. These descendants number all told about 400, and belong in the majority of instances to the Catholic church. The second daughter of the ducal pair mentioned above, the Princess Antoi nette Amalie, married her cousin, .Duke Ferdinand II of Brunswick-Bevern. The fruits of this marriage were three daugh ters, the Princesses Louise, Amalie and Julianne, and one son, the Duke Carl. From Princess Louise-Amalie, who mar ried Prince August William of Prussia, a brother of Frederick the Great, and thus became the mother of Frederick William II, is descended the present royal house of Prussia. Through the marriages of other female descendants she is also the female progenitor of the reigning families of Russia, Mecklen-burg-Schwerin, Baden and the Nether lands. The second daughter of the Princess Antoinette Amalie, the Princess Sophie, became the wife of Duke Ernst Friedric of Coburg-Saalfield, and the ancestor in the female line of the entire house of Co burg, and through it of the ruling fami lies of England, Belgium, Hesse-Darm stadt ana Portugal. The third daughter of the Princess An toinette Amalie, the Princess Julianne, married King Frederic V of Denmark. From her are descended the reigning houses of Denmark, Holstein-Gluecks-burg, Hesse-Cassel and Greece. Finally, from Duke Carl of RmnnW who died in 1780, the only son of Prin cess Antoinette Amalie, was descended the house of Brunswick, which became extinct in 1883 bv the death of r.n lata duke. Thus Antoinette Amalie, who was gathered to her ancestors in 1762, has had 365 descendants, who, with few excep tions, profess the Protestant form of be lief. Duke Louis Budolph, who died in 1735, has had up to the present time al most 800 descendants, including almost all of the ruling families in Europe. New York Tribune. A Curious Indian Custom. In the original settlernenfa in RHHsh Columbia a peculiar institution occa sioned erala times for the red men nmv and then. This was the "nottatoh " thing to us so foreign, even in the im pulse of which it is begotten, that we have no word or phrase to give its mean ing. It is a feast and merrymakim? at the exrienseof some man who lma au-iwi or saved what he deems considerable weaitn, and who desires to distribute every iota of it at once in edibles and drinkables among the people of his tribe or village. He does this because he as pires to a chieftainship or merely for the credit of a potlatch" a high distinc tion." Indians have been lrnnwn s throw away such a sum of money that Al a i M . . meir --pouar.cn nas Deen . given in a hutre sheds built for th blankets and ornaments have been dis tributed in addition to the feast. Julian Kalpn in Harper's. How Auclenta gqsared tbe Cirel. The rule criven bv AhinnnrftnnirM that the diameter of a circle shall be short ened by one-ninth, and a square erected upon wis snortenea line. The area of such a square approximates the area of the circle, but, of course, is not exact, and is not even as close a result as that at vThich other geometricians have ar rived. , . The Babylonians, who were also great mathematicians, had a solution, to which a reference in the Talmud has been traced. The Babylonian method, how ever, was not a quadrature, but a recti fication of the circumference. All the World Round. ; . Homo Mad Dolls Cheaper. A "doll with real hair" is the desire of most small girls. As a rule, only the expensive varieties of dolls are so en dowed. "But," suggests a close shop per, "1 buy a seventy-five cent doll, for which I get a good kid body with bisque arms and feet; and then at some small hairdresser's I get the jute curls replaced with a wig of real hair at much less ex pense than I could buy the doll thus en dowed in the first place."

Martin iu Popular Science Monthly. .Arguing is a source of annoyance and wears upon the nerves of the listeners, however they have schooled themselves to bear and forbear. ' A Vleiooa Hwt. An Auburn businesa man and a trimA I were out nuntmg tbe other day."-, A big hawk flew over their : heads and they blazed away at, him. The shot broke the bird's wing and he came to the ground, alighting on bis back. 1 He was unable to turnover and get upon his feet, but was lively just the same, as the Auburn hunters found before they suc ceeded in killing him. - The business man placed the ramrod of his gun in the hawk's big, grasping claws, all of which straightaway closed, like the jaws of an enraged mud turtle snapping at a stick in the hands of mis chievous boy. With the claws thus taken care of the business 'man's friend proceeded to wring the bird's neck. In the earlier stages of the operation the harder the friend worked the tighter would the hawk grasp the iron ramrod and flap its wings. All this was fun for the hunters, who after a long struggle declared them selves winners of - the scrap. They had hardly so proclaimed when the bird got bis wind, and leaving the ramrod vi ciously attacked his persecutors. As fate would have it, the business man's friend, being nearest, was the first to catch it. The hawk lighted on bis wrist, and the way he stuck there was a caution. One claw sunk deep into the hunter's wrist, and he called loud and long for mercy. The business man, seeing that some thing must be done at the risk of his life, finally went to his friend's rescue. He got a good hold on the sunken claw, braced his feet against a rock, and was successful in pulling it out. As the claw came out, the hawk fell back and in a moment was still in death. They found that the bird's .wings measured three feet and ten inches from tip to tip. Maine Letter. Giving: Wood a Good Color. Many hard woods of superior color and grain may be greatly improved by treatment. The graining or marking of the wood is always a beautiful feature, and it can be greatly improved and ac centuated, if faint, by giving the entire piece one coat of raw oil, and then with a camel's hair brush going over the vari ous lines and veinings several times. Each coat increases the color. A slight coat of varnish will help to keep the color. New York Tribune. For the Children. "In buying a cough medicine for children," says H. A.
