Things of Beauty.
"The scrimschon!'' exclaimed round
faced, dark-eyed, black haired Will
iam TeYis, as he rolled up a wood
cock in his fathers old game shop, m
the basement of 403 "Walnut street,
yesterdav. "The scrimschon is the
artbeautifuL What is it? Sit down
and I will tell you. Not There -Great
Jupiter! you almost squatted in this
pan of plovers. Sit down in that
arm-chair. It's one of dad's old
chairs, and it's as old as well, all
these things 'round here, as old as
cuss words. And "
"But the scrimschon?"
"Ah! The scrimschon is the art of
engraving on ivory or bone. I en
grave on egg shells also, but that is
a distinct branch of the engraver's
art I don't know where tho name
scrimschon came from, and, as to the
meaning, why you can only define it
by itself. It'is an art that is known
to iew except old seamen. They
take to it naturally if they have
patience, a steady hand and a gift of
drawing. All that you need is a jack
knife and a whale's tooth, a billard
ball, a bit of walrus tusk, or a piece
of ivory or bono of any sort, and a
little India ink and Chinese Vermil
lion. You first lay off your design in
lead pencil. Then you take your
knife and carefully etch it and rub in
your coloring matter. The design
will last until the bone crumbles
away."
THREE HUSBANDS SCBIHSCHOKED.
"What do you draw?'
"Anything, from a bouquet to a
one-eyed bull. Young sailors some

one dark day, in the .midst of a dis

iiiese biujis uuu mio mis ceuar wiin a
little bit of a fellow as fragile as a
soft-shell crab. 'My husband, sir,'
says she, proudly. 'Glad to meet you,
sir,' says he, in a voice like tho sound
of a tight fiddle-string. 'Can you
scrimschon from nature? says she.
'Yea, 'urn,' says L 'Then I would
like to have you scrimschon my dear
husband,' says she. 'I want to have
his face where I know it will last for
ever and forever.' 'Did I scrimshon
him?' Oh, yes. But, poor man, ho
omy lasted two montiis.
INCONSTANT NO. -L
"It was less than six weeks after I
had heard of his death that my cus
tomer and the walrus tusk were back
acrain. She was dressed un semmn.
tiously. She saw that I was surprised
not to find her in mourning. 'I'm
I'm married again,' she said with a
giggle. 'And if you would be kind

away by a scraping of feet and a
rustling of silk. I" looked up and
there was mv customer flnnTifin
down the steps. I was not astonished;
noming mac sue couia do would sur
prise me. 'Well?' says L She paused
a moment to take her baeath and
gather her words. Then she said:
'How far have you got with that
scrimschon?' 'Just putting in tho
ears,' says L 'Well, make the ears
big, enormous; make them donkey's
ears,' she said, 'and on the forehead
scratch the words beast and fraud.'
'Great heavens, ma'am,' says L
What's the matter?' He has gone
back on me,' she screamed. 'Your
husband?' says I. 'He was not my
husband,' she answered? 'I was too
previous. He was only engaged to
me, and now he has broken the en
gagement, and they do say he is go

him for breach of promise, sir. He'll
find that he can't lacerate my heart
with impunity. "
SCBIMSCHONED HEERIiOOMS.
"Did you finish the scrimsohon

"No, it is unfinished yet. I'm ex
peering to see that woman come in

"How long a time do you require

"I can scrimsclaqu a Goddess of

longer to scrimschon likenesses oLpeC

must file down the whole piece. " A
job is sometimes worth from ten to

families for years and years and
wouldn't part with them for any
money."
"Can you scrimschon human teeth
or those of the lower animals."
"No. The enamel resists the knife

Butler's 'tJahince of Power" Notion.
Gen. Butler does not improve in
either rhetoric or logic as he travels
west. He appears to be taking on
more and more a charaoter bearing
some resemblance to tiiat of- Jack
Cade. Before he culminates he mav
be fouud saying that in the event o
his success tho tnree-hooped pot will
bo miraculously bound with ten
hoops, that the conduits will jun with
wine, and that he will send his pal
frey to grass in Wall street. He in
formed his hearers at Lincoln,
Nebraska, Tuesday that what ho
wanted to secure was the "balance of
power." To this end he advised Lis
followers tounite witb the Demo
crats. But the general did not state
how tho "balance of power" could te
obtained in the Electoral Colleges.
There are thirty-eight of these bodies.
They will meet at the capitals of the
states in which they are chosen on a
specified day in December next. Each
member will cast the vote to which he
was pledged before his election. There
can be no combination or political
dickering of any kind. If Butler has
any electors they will cast their bal
lots for him. But they cannot be
traded off without a dangurons in
novation in American politics. If an
elector chosen for Butler should after
wards, in obedience to instructions
from that candidate, vote for Blaine
or Cleveland, or anybody else, the
electoral college system would be
completely wrecked.
There appears, therefore, to be
some confusion iir the general's mind
as to tho status of an elector. He
evidently thinks that an official of
that kind, elected to vote for him, be
longs to him, and can be transferred
where ha j)leaffCsy This is often, but
not always, the rule in political con
ventions. Tho elector, however,
chosen to Tote for a particular candi
date, must cast ihat vote unless he is
absolved by his constituents.
But there is no method by
which his constituents can be
consulted. General Butler is
a very shrewd politician,and generally
knows what he is about. But, for all
that, he seems to be unneccessarily
confounding the issues. If ho is any
thing, he is the Democratic protec
tionist candidate for tho presidency.
If he should defeat Cleveland lie
would naturally becomo the leader of
the party in 1SSS. But he can't do any
thing now with tho "balance of
power," nor can he secure it If the
election be thrown into tho house all
his labor will have gone for nothing.
In that case his candidacy will have
secured the triumph of Cleveland.
The Democrats have a majority in a
majority of the delegations in the
house but not the Butlerites. There
is apparently no more chance
for a dicker thero than in the electo
ral college. There might bs some
weakness on the Pennsylvania line.
But Pennsylvania has no more weight
in a contest of that kind than Dele
ware; besides, tho Democrats could
lose a state and vet win.
Marriage in Siberia.
Among the exiles in Eastern Si
beria the following custom prevails:
If a man wishes to get married he
applies to the governor, who forth
with selects ono of the female prison
ers, with whom tho candidate for
holy matrimony is expected to "keep
company" for two or three days. If
at tho conclusion of this term the
male party declares to the governor
that the lady selected is not to his
mind, he receives twenty-five blows
with a stick, and another bride is
chosen for him and so on. The
same course is adopted with the fe
male prisoners who are in search of
husbands. These matches are termed
"official marriages," or the "gover
nor's marriages," and are not followed
by any religious ceremony.
A Skirmish Amony the Doctors.
When typhoid fever broke out at
Port Jervis, some doctors quarreled
about how to cure it. Each said his
way was the best, and several said all
the others were entirely wrong and
knew nothing about how to cure it
A little knowledge of medicine is a
dangerous thing, but a very valuable
item of medical knowledge is, that
Brown's Iron Bitters builds up wast
ed systems, and by enriching enfee
bled blood gives health and strength.
Dr. J. W. Newhill of Carter's Greek,
Va., says, "Brown's Iron Bitters m
one of the best tonics I ever pre
scribed." Early marriages are becoming com
mon among boys and girls in the
east end of London. At 11 or 15
every laddie ha3 his lassie. A boy of
16 recently married a girl of the same
age. In one printing office there aro
four married boys. The eldest is
only19 and receives 13 shillings
S3.25 a week; the next is 18, has
three years of his apprenticeship still
to serve, and has two children; the
youngest is 16, and has to keep a wife
and one child on 11 shillings S2.75
a week. Another boy is known whose
ago is between 16 and 17 and he has
two children. Still another boy of 16
has one child.
