John V Hookwalter In Forum. One Merchant's Hold HtroliH, This story is told of ono of tho lead Ing dry goods men of Now Yerk: Ho was carrying a heavy stock of fine mil linery goods when the round topped derby hat for women becamo suddenly fashionable. Tho market was flooded with them, and thoy wero regarded as tho only thing to bo worn on the head. This merchant foresaw a great loss on his stock of millinery, aud decided to provont It. He first bought up all the derby lints ho could and then adver tlsod them extensively, ofTorlng thorn for sale at ridiculously low prices. Tho result was that tho dorby fell Into disfavor among fashionable women at once, and ho saved his market for his moro expensive goods. It Is by titrokes Mich as this and tho careful Watching of the market and feeling of tho popular pulse that fortunes are made by tho few oxtromoly successful merchants. lirooklyn Lifo.

To Unfile liurgftirs. French Ingenuity has contrived n rorucdy for tho Inefflclenoy of ordinary combination locks for housos and apartments, these contrivances being usually of so little avail against pro fessionals who, wasting no tlmo in ef forts to ralso tho tumblers and move tho bolt, simply insert the end of a short Iron lover or "Jimmy" between the door and its rabbet, forcing the whole affair inward, tearing out both locks and bolts on the way. According to tho now device for meeting tlds difilculty, a combination is resorted to of tho iron shore with the ordinary lock In such a manner that locking tho door sets a shore in place which will resist an enormous strain, but on tho return of tho proprietor the unlocking of the door In the usual way shifts tho upper eild of tho shoro from the door to tho framo, where It presents no obstacle to tho opening of the door. Tho mechanism of tho lock Itself need not bo very elaborate, although the picking of the lock would inovo both the bolt and tho shore, for if tliero are tumblers enough to provent picking with a bit of wire, and if tho Jimmy is insufficient for tho purpose, tho point of security is attained. Now York Sun. Tlioy Took a Walk. An amusing anecdote is told of Louis XVIII of Franco. This Inoffensive monarch took break fast one morning. Then his ministers called upon him. "Woll," said tho king, "how nro tho public affairs?" "Getting along very nicely, sire,'' said the ministers. "Hum I In that case," said tho king, "I think I will go and take a walk." Next morning after breakfast tho ministers called again. "Well, how do the public affairs got on today?" asked tho king. "Very badly, Indeed, sire," said tho ministers. "Hum I" exclaimed tho king; "in that caso I think I will go and take a walk I" Next day no ministers called on tho king. "What has become of my ministry?" said tho king, after breakfast. "Siro," said tho palaco functionary who was In attondanco, "parliament has turned out tho ministry." "Ahl" said tho king; "then It's thoy who havo taken a walk this tlmo, oh?" Youth's Companion. rormntlon of Chalk. A Fronch scientist, II. Walthor, has madoBomo observations in tho Mediter ranean ca of the manner in which chalk is formed by sea weeds. Ho par ticularly studied the litliotamnia of tho Hay of Naples, whioh grow at deptlis of from 100 to 300 feet, a class of algio remarkably poor In organic matter, but rich in mineral constitu ents, among which carbonate of lime Is preponderant. Thoy grow to bo about as largo as tho hand, aud then die without sufTorlng change of form by decomposition. Living plants attach thomsolvcs to dead ouos, and thus ox lenslvo deposits aro formed. Hcds of puro, unerystalifcod chalk remain aftor the gradual disappearance of the or ganic matter, tho vacancies loft by which aro gradually filled with cal careous substance. Hods of chalk thus formed may, under somo conditions, attain great thickness. Journal of Health. Cuius for Wltoliury.

By Invitation of a well known natu ralist 1 had not long ago an opportunity to witness a curious sight in an aqua rium in which about a hundred young lobsters had been placed. Young lobsters are cannibals of the very worst type, and can glvo point to the most terrible maneaterinall Africa. The lobsters had just passed out of the swimming stage and were seen crawling about in the tank. The tank had gloss sides, giving an excellent rhanco for observation, and It hod a capacity of about fifty gallons of water. At one sido of the Interior of the aqua rium had been piled large stones, with flat sides, resting on sand. Tho sand was about two Inches deep, covering the bottom. My Informant said that the first per formances of the young lobsters when put Into the tank wero very Interest ing They gathered around tho sides of tho rocks, and wjth their autenna; almost against the stone, crossed their claws in front of them aud moving backward dragged pinches of sand away from the stone. This was re peated again and again until a holo had been made big enough to hold the Httlo lobster with space to spare. Then the crustacean climbed over tho heap of sand Into the excavation, and, turning his tall to the stone, pro ceeded to push the particles from tho bottom of the hole to the top of the heap by placing it two claws together with the tips lapping so that the sand could not slide back. In effect the claws served as a shovel. After the lobsters had in this man ner built for themselves caves for de fensive purposes they planted them selves with their backs to the stone and kept their little black, beadliko eyes roving outward In every direction. When I took my placo to watch nothing was stirring. Now and then a lobster would climb out of his retreat and explore tho im mediate neighborhood. Suddenly, finding an intrenched lob ster, tho errant adventurer would as sault It. Then would ensue the biggest kind of a rough and tumble, catch-as-catch can contest It was a light to tho death. When the strugglo was between only two lobsters the result was usually a drawn battlo, each retreating to his holo with the loss of a claw or of ono or two antenna). But when two or three lobsters at tacked ono in his shallow cave tho fight was soon over. TIip miserable victim was dragged out on tho arena by tho sharp pincers of tho besiegers, and In u trico ho was killed. It re quired but u few minutes for tho can nibals to dismember and eat up their victim, dragging tho bits to different parts of the aquarium, as dogs would bones. Theso attacks are always mado at night. I was m fortunate as to see an other raid, but It was not like that, do scribed above. Ono of tho lobsters that hod emerged from his lair in pur suit of food was himself pursued In turn. Caught napping away from his castle by threo or four enemies, it scut tled over tho sand toward ono corner of tho aquarium. After 1dm went the pursuers bolter skelter, and whilo tho pursued resorted to dodging tactics that would be admired by a football rusher, tho pursuers separated and closed in around tho doomed creaturo. It Is by u curious Instinct that tho pursuit is made in the night, becauso it is ovidently to tho advantage of tho pursuer, on the principle in war that night attacks aro more successful than thoso by daylight. Marks of theso midnight forays were to bo found In the morning in tho frag ments of shells. Tho result of canni balism among the young lobstors Is that out of a hundred about twenty five survlvo, a demonstration of tho Darwinian law of tho survival of tho Attest. In tho cannibal stage of their ex istence they are about throo-quarters of an inch In length, and when tho sur vivors grow to be two and a half Inches In length from the tall to the tip of tho claws thoy havo outgrown thoir blood thirsty Instincts: New York Herald. Sleeping on a Cobra. An old gontloman living In India said to his wife ono morning- "My dear, I have had a very strange dream. I dreamed I was sleeping on a cobra," "What nonsense I" was her retort "How could that bo" "Woll, my dear," ho responded meek ly, "I did dream it, and I oidy hope It wasn't true." Tho next night ho had the samo dream, aud in tho morning lumouncod tho fact, only to encounter his wlfo's rldlculo on tho scoro of his weak nerves. Nevertheless he had tho samo dream once moro. Thereupon tho mattress was rlppod open, and there, snugly colled In Its middle, was a cobra. Ho hod entored ono day through a rip In the cover whilo tho mattroi3 was lying In tho gar den to air. Probably his luxurious wrlthlngs beneath the sleeper had given rise to the dream. Youth's Companion. Ira ou Still Waters.

One of tho most noteworthy build Ings of the "refulgent" city was the Lowa-Maha-Poya, or the Brazen pal ace, erected by King Dutugcmunu In the year 142 B. C. It stood upon 1.C00 granite pillars, and vied with surround lug dugobas In height, rearing its ninth story 270 feet skyward; It contained 1,000 dormitories for pris-sts; its rool was of brass, and. according to the Mahawauso, the walls gleamed with ro splendent gems. The great hall was supported ou golden pillars resting on lions, and in tho center was an ivory throne witii a golden sun and a silver moon on either side. Several times tho Brazen palaco was razed by Iconoclastic invaders from In dia, and as often restored by zealous adherents of the now faith, up to the latter part of tho Twelfth century, when tho capital was removed to Pol- lonarua. From the upper stories of this magnificent pile the priestly occu pants could view tho far extending city, and look upon six great dagobas, all within a radius of little moro than a mile, and lifting their hugo white domes as high as somo of the loftiest cathedrals in Europe. The Huanwcli dagobu stood near tho palaco, aud according to tiie native arcldves, rested on a platform 500 feot square, its glass pinnacle glittering in the sun 270 feet above the city, its base surrounded by marble statues and its outer wails mounting elephants of ma sonry with real tusks. In the north, beyond splendid pavilions of king and quepns, loomed tho great Jetawanarama dagoba, with Its 20,000.000 cubic feet of masonry. The beholder at the palace had only to turn his guzo In tho direction of the rising sun to look upon the greatest of the relic tombs, the Abhayagiria da goba. James RIcalton in Scrlbner's. An Acid tJottle Needed. A surgeon has called attention to tho fact that a more convenient form of acid bottle is needed. Tho ordinary bottle allows drops to run down tho outside and eat off tho labels and burn tho shelves nnd perhaps the hands of tho user. A form of bottlo Is some times used for essences and oils which might bo adopted with advantage. In the placo of tho ordinary aperaturo there is a tube will) a lip. On tho sido opposito tho lip there is a groove lead ing back into tho bottle. Tho liquid is then poured out by means of this tube, but any drops than run down tho out- sldo run back into tho bottlo. Tho whole Is then coverod by a ground cap, Tills principle is ompioyed in tho ordi nary collodion bottle and in somo claret Jugs. A stopper has been brought out in England which meets some of the ob Jections to the ordinary form, it Is really a glass lid with a pin of glass passing into tho neck of tho bottlo to keep it from falling off. Tho external appearanco of the now stoppered bot tle is thus nearly the same as usual, but the stopper Is replaced by a much smaller body with straight sides. This form is said to bo quite air tight, and at the same time to avoid sticking. Chicago Herald. Stone forests. Stono forests aro found in various parts of tho world. In many cases they aro hardened by some peculiarity of tho atmosphere, and aro found standing Just as they wero when clothed with green foliage thousands of years ago. Tho Little Colorado river.ln Arizona, has long been famous as a locality for such llnds; at one placo more than 1,600 cords of solid stono tree trunks, sec tions, limbs aud logs wero found by tho government survoyors. Most of them woro sillcifled; many 7 to 10 feot in di amoter and from 20 to 80 feet In height. Geologists say that the petrified trees of tho Little Colorado wero once cov ored with marl over 1,000 feet in depth. Somo of the trees have been changed to Jusper, and havo assumed various hues; others resemble npal, and, when brokon open, tho core is often found lined with crystals of the most beauti ful tints. St. Louis Hopublio. r.iroct or Vlcotrlcal Light on Fish. A correspondent states that fishing all along by Totland bay, Isle of Wight, was very poor, and that sinoo the sot ting up of tho search light for tho forts it hod become worse. Ho also heard that there used to bo a very good place for fish near the lighthouse at St. Cath erine's point, but that tho olectrio light had driven them all away, and now it was quite useless putting out nets In a spot where, a fow yoars since, n decent haul was looked on as a certainty.
