MAY MARRIAGES UNLUCKY. Old Superstition Which Has Powerful Influence With European Bridal Couples. The municipal statistics of the city of Marseilles show the observer that on the 28th of April, 1894, there were registered at the mayor's office in that town no less than 94 marriages. Why this enormous number? Because, according to an ancient tradition, couples that marry in the month of May expose themselves to great danger—death will soon smite the unfortunates, or, at the very least, their union will not be blessed with children. Therefore a large number of Marseillaise lovers availed themselves of the last days of April to join themselves in wedlock. This curious superstition is by no means confined to Marseilles. M. le Blaut, a French investigator, ascribes to it an origin in Roman antiquity. The Roman poet Ovid said that May was no time for widows to marry or for young girls, and adds that the imprudent woman who braves fate by so doing will die early. Plutarch agrees to the truth of this. It may be because of this ancient principle that the Roman Catholic church has made the month of May sacred to the Virgin. However this may be, the idea has certainly perpetuated itself with singular persistence. Tassoni, writing about the middle of the seventeenth century, relates that among the inhabitants of Ferraras many young nobles and princes who were married in May died only a few days afterward. "It is the observation of this strange fact," he observes, "that induced the Ferrarese, so it is said, to follow the ancient custom." At the present day the superstition has not ceased to show itself in certain regions of Italy, in Romania, in south Germany, Bohemia, Westphalia, England and France, notably in Sainttonge and in the Cevennes, where every one acknowledges the truth of the proverb, "The month of flowers is a month of tears." "Perhaps," said Plutarch, "the month of May is regarded as unlucky because it comes between April and June, the months respectively of Venus and Juno, the tutelary goddesses of marriage, or perhaps it is because May is the month of the feast of the Lemures, the souls of the dead."—Paris Letter. TREE PLANTING IN FRANCE. Useless Sand Dunes Converted Into Valuable Land With Pines. The French thoroughly appreciate the advantages to be derived from systematic tree planting. Tracts of sand have been covered with pine forests, and the word lande, borrowed, as it is thought, from the German, is losing its meaning of "waste." Till a century ago a large portion of the forest of Fontainebleau consisted of bare sand hills, but the planting of pines was begun. A variety capable of standing the severest win- college course. Those not taking this course will be required to take other university work to make up the two credits. Heretofore women have graduated on 38 credits, while the required number for men was 40, the additional two being obtained in drill. The board thinks that this new departure will be well received by the women students. The age at which students are eligible to admission was changed from 15 to 16 years.—Chicago News. The First Woman Lawyer. It is noted by the Ohio State Journal that Mrs. Myra Bradwell's predecessor in admission to the bbf in this country was Miss Arabella A. Mansfield of Mount Pleasant, Ia., in 1869. As for the first woman lawyer, she was so very far back that she could not lessen the pioneer glories of Mrs. Bradwell and Miss Mansfield. According to The State Journal, the first woman lawyer in history was Deborah, wife of Lapidoth, a judge in Israel. In both Greece and Rome women pleaded in the forum. In 1888 Margaret Brent, an English woman, came to Maryland and succeeded to the business of Lord Baltimore. But in our time has arisen no woman to win under such unfavorable circumstances the laurels that fell upon the brow of Myra Bradwell. MONEY MAKING. The Quickest Way to Pile Up Wealth In This Business Era. The reason of the modern differences in favor of business as an instrument of money making is not far to seek. It is the enormous growth in the scale of everything in which business can be done. The enterprise of a merchant, of a contractor, of a mine dealer, even of a shopkeeper, may now cover the whole world and may be carried on, moreover, mainly upon credit. It may be doubted whether, except in those transactions which are called "financial," and which really mean the taking of heavy bribes for pecuniary support, any one transaction ever yields quite as much as the same transactions would have yielded 60 years ago; whether, for example, any cargo ever produces ton for ton an equal margin of profit, or whether any customer in a shop pays quite so heavy a percentage on the goods he buys. It is the magnitude and multiplication of cargoes which yield fortunes, the thousands instead of hundreds of customers whom clever dealers may induce to spend money. The new system of rapid turnover is, of course, precisely the same thing—the dealer selling four times what he did and using only the same capital. This advantage of scale is almost entirely wanting to the professional man, for the obvious reason that he is hampered by limitations of time. There are only 600 minutes in a hard worked day, and the seeker after income, be he as able as he may or as rapid, must give some of THE QUEEN BEE. She Is the Foundation, the Life of a Hive Colony.

Useless Sand Dunes Converted Into Valuable Land With Pines. The French thoroughly appreciate the advantages to be derived from systematic tree planting. Traits of sand have been covered with pine forests, and the word lande, borrowed, as it is thought, from the German, is losing its meaning of "waste." Till a century ago a large portion of the forest of Fontainebleau consisted of bare sand hills, but the planting of pines was begun. A variety capable of standing the severest winters was evidently found, and millions of trees now diffuse healthy and agreeable odors, besides furnishing timber for fuel. The decomposed fir needles, moreover, gradually form a crust of vegetable mold, permitting the growth of trees and shrubs less able than the pine to live on air. The department of the Landes, once a barren region, with sand so loose that people had to walk on stilts, is covered with pines, and the problem of draining the subsoil has been solved, as described in Edmond About's story of "Maitre Pierre." The losses by fire and anxiety to produce something more remunerative than pine are now, however, inducing schemes of artificial fertilization. In many French watering places dunes have been transformed into woods, thus holding out to seaside visitors the attraction of agreeable shade and a change from monotonous beach. Shifting sands have been prevented from extending inland. In some cases dunes have been acquired by companies, which, after planting them, have cut them up into building lots and have seen them dotted with villas. Elsewhere municipalities have taken up the matter, and in large operations the district or the department has provided the funds.—London Times. He Loves to Work. The foreman of a bootblacking shop in Madison square is a continual surprise to the customers. His employer is a padrone, and he is left in complete control. His conduct justifies his employer's confidence. He is the hardest worker among the half dozen employees and frequently takes the brushes from one of his subordinates when there are not enough customers to keep all busy. He never allows a customer to go away unless he is satisfied that his boots have been polished in the best manner possible. He is ever full of enthusiasm and works with as much energy at the end of a busy day as at the beginning. His humor never lags, and his muscles never tire. "It is as good as a bracer to watch that fellow," said a rounder. "He is the only man I ever saw who always seems to love to work."—New York Sun. Dutch Toast. Dutch toast is a simple dish for using up scraps of bread. Crumble the bread and place in a frying pan with a slice of butter or drippings. Add salt, pepper and sage if liked. It should be seasoned quite well. Add a small quantity of boiling water, cover closely so the steam will soften the bread, stir several times and serve hot.

An Incident In Which Patti Answered a Remark About Her. To a writer in The Woman at Home Mme. Albani has been giving some details of her life. "My voice is a certain amount of care to me," she said. "You think that it always sounds fresh and clear?" Well, I watch over it and never allow it to become tired if I can help it. On the days I am engaged to sing at the opera I do not talk above a whisper for many hours beforehand, besides which I believe in careful diet. Tea I forbid myself. Bordeaux I find excellent. And sometimes, between the acts of an opera, I take, through a straw, a cup of bouillon-made in the French way, which I find very restorative." Mme. Albani could sing any tune sung to her long before she could speak. "My sister," she added, "will tell you that she distinctly remembers my first soprano note—a real note, long sustained. We were playing together in our cot in the early morning before the household were astir, and, baby though she, too, was, she has not forgotten the effect made upon her. At 8 years old I actually entered the musical profession. Ah, do not laugh! It is true. I made a little 'tournee' of some months' duration and was much petted and spoiled wherever I went. Then a few years later I sent to be educated at a convent and engaged to take the soprano solo at a mass."

There are only 600 minutes in a hard worked day, and the seeker after income, be he as able as he may or as decided or as rapid, must give some of those minutes to each client or patient or contractor with a difficulty to meet. If he does not, he loses custom, and with custom income rapidly silips away.

Nothing can alter this first law, while the exaggeration of professional fees is kept down in the case of solicitors by positive statute, in that of doctors by an etiquette difficult to define or explain—there seems to be no reason why a great physician should not charge according to skill—and in that of barristers and engineers, by a competition, which, though never acknowledged, is none the less real and effective. We can not see what is to alter this condition of affairs, and do not believe that, however civilization may develop itself, professional skill will ever again be the quickest road, to large accumulations.—London Spectator.

The hatpin which prods dozens of holes into felt and straw has seen its day. The inventor has turned his attention to the matter, and the result is a fixture which guides the direction of the pin and at the same time fastens it so securely that no sudden breeze can dislocate it. The pins are made with a small, almost imperceptible groove near the base, over which a little plate of silver or steel fastens. This aheath is fastened on after the pin is stuck through one side of the hat, and thus acts as a sort of lock. The pin cannot come out until the plate is removed, and if the pin is stuck through at the proper angle in the first place there is no necessity for its frequent removal. In this way the ruin of the hat by pin pricks is prevented. Gold, silver and ordinary wire pins are now made with this improvement.—Chicago Tribune. Physical Culture For Women. The board of trustees of the University of Illinois at its March meeting took an important step in relation to physical culture for women at the university.

There is a good—and a true—story of how one day Adelina Patti, when walking down Regent street one morning with her first husband, the Marquis de Caux, stopped at the windows of the stereoscopic company. There were shown, side by side, photographs of herself and the debutante, Mlle. Emma Albani. Patti stood close to the window and was unnoticed by a young man lounging in the background. "Look," he exclaimed in a loud and jubilant voice, "at that photograph of Albani. She's the new prima donna, and everybody is raving over her. Patti will be nowhere very soon. That's one thing certain!" And Patti, turning round suddenly upon the speaker, made him a swift little courtesy. "Thank you, sir," she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. The man was rooted to the spot with amazement. Patti stopped just an instant to enjoy the effect she had created and then tripped off laughing through the crowd on her way homeward. Appetizers. Pickled olives are a tonic for the nerves, as is celery. While the latter is an excellent digester and should be supplied in crisp, tender pieces to those whose digestion is faulty, yet everywhere it is an excellent appetizer. Among other healthful appetizers water cresSES are in the very front rank. All greens are antiscorbutic, but water cresSES are especially valuable for this reason.—New York Dispatch.

Todd who holds the theory that he is benefiting his low creatures when he puts abu supplies of newspapers within reach. He lately provided for a penditure of $2,000 a year for newspapers for the Boston public library. It has since been discovered that he centently made a similar provision for public library of Newburyport. He lies in the value of newspapers yet it seems that he is not a patented cine man, as one might suppose, retired schoolmaster, who has been great traveler and now pursues a studious retirement in a village. In extenuation of his action he decided that the press has become the agency by which information is distributed and the people are educated, and free reading rooms are likely to be in demand in the future than free libraries. It is interesting to notice that he did not have suffered from the news publicity about which there is so complaint, and that even his neigh-in Atkinson, where he lives, were to possess scarcely any reliable information about his past career or the success his fortune. They knew him to be gal in his personal habits and gems in his penfactions, but that was THE QUEEN BEE. She Is the Foundation, the Life and Soul of a Hive Colony. A queen bee is essential to the colony. She is readily picked out, but by a close observer by her great length. She lives generally for about five years, but her term of life varies in different individuals from two to five or six and in rare instances even to seven years. A queen is fed with the daintiest and best all through her embryo stage, and when matched comes out a full queen. If any other queen is hatched—and sometimes one or two more are, pretty soon after—the rightful ruler assails the rival claimant in a life and death battle, the "stinger" being plied vigorously like a death dealing sword by both contestants, while the hive looks on in mute interest to see the issue of the battle. This is almost decided in favor of the assailant. She is then the undisputed queen and so regarded. Yet the great company of "workers" are in some senses the real governors, and the hive is a great social democracy. If by any mischance the queen is killed, then the "workers"—who are undeveloped females—go to work to produce a new one. The egg they select for the trial is attended to with the same care, and the embryo be fed with the same selected food, as in the case of the egg that had produced the legitimate queen. It makes a queen, and she serves in that capacity. Except in swarming time, the queen never leaves the hive, only on the one occasion of her bridal tour. Selecting some one for her husband, she invites him out to go with her—and their confluential relations are carried on entirely while on the wing in the air—like the chimney swallow's. The bridgroom never returns. He drops dead, and the queen returns from her one and only serial excursion a fully fecundated bee, ready to begin her great life work of egg laying. Some days she will lay as many as 2,000 eggs; in all, about 20,000 eggs. In "swarming" a large part of the whole crowd goes out. They leave behind the remains of the old colony, which had grown too numerous, thus compelling the "swarming" or seeking a new home by a great part of the hive. The queen goes with the swarmers, and there they follow closely. If she alights on a branch or other place, they all settle there, clinging closely together in a great mass, by much the same method as a mass of burdock burs will stick together, and the farmer's wife and "all hands" used to bang away on tin pans to govern the movements of the swarm by fright if possible. So close does the swarm follow the queen that when once in flying over a lake the queen became weary and dropped into the water every bee went down with her to die by drowning.—New York Dispatch. MAKING TURPENTINE AN EXTENSIVE INDUSTRY IN CERTAIN SOUTHERN STATES. How the Trees Are Tapped and the Resinous Gum Gathered—Departments and Divisions In the Work All Under the Keen Eye of the "Rider." Dialect writers find a fruitful field among the "Tar Heels" of the Carolinas, Alabama and Georgia. In the cool depths of the turpentine woods, with the gashed trees yielding up their resinous gum, the balmy air and the picturesque "hackers," "dippers" and "scrapers," with the ever vigilant "rider" watching everything, is a phase in southern life which has long been the delight of authors and the pleasure of artists. The crudity of the implements and the still used in making turpentine and rosin lend additional interest to this old industry, and the gypsy-like habits of the turpentine makers add to their ragged, illiterate charms. Turpentine is the distilled gum of the pine trees of North and South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and part of Florida. The season begins when the first spring sap rises and ends when cold weather checks the flow of the tree's blood. In January or February the "hacker," with his keen bladed ax, begins the round which ends with the season. He is the expert of the woods and knows his trees and just how much hacking they will stand. His task is to cut the "boxes" in which the thick gum of the wounded tree will collect. A box is a wide incision about six inches deep, a wedge shaped cut in the tree, and he hacks from 90 to 100 boxes a day. The first boxes are cut near the roots of the tree, and they are cut as close together to the height of a man's head as can be done without killing the pine. The hacker leaves a width of bark between each box so as to preserve the vitality of the tree. When the trees are leased to the turpentine makers, terms of the lease limit the number of boxes to each tree, but when it is desired to work the pine to the fullest extent the gashes are carried up to a height of 20 feet or more. After the hacker comes the man who "corners" the boxes. This "corner" is a cut in the top of the box to guide the sap into the cavities left for the gum, and the man who "works" the "crop" goes systematically from box to box, starting the sap anew with fresh inclusions, working in this way 10,000 boxes during the season. The sap or gum fills the boxes with a clear, sticky, thick fluid, and this is removed by the "dipper." Scattered through the woods are barrels in which the "dipper" deposits the gum, which is then hauled to the still. About a quart of sap is taken from each box by means of the trowel shaped scoop used by the dipper, and then the MISCELLANEOUS. CITIZENS' BANK OF ANAHEIM.

The Difference Between These Two Kinds of Carpets Explained. By placing a brussels and tapestry carpet side by side a clearness and sharpness are noticed about the brussels carpet which are absent from the tapestry. In the latter there is a mistiness about the colors, and the pattern lacks sharpness and delicacy which characterize the former. This is due to the process of manufacture. A brussels is a yarn dyed, and a tapestry may be described as a printed fabric, but the printing is done upon the yarn before the process of weaving. The whole method of manufacture is most ingenious. In the making of a five name brussels no fewer than 1,280 ends face yarns are required for the weaving of one piece of standard quality, such frame consisting of 256 bobbins, and 256 ends only can come to the face each pick of the pattern. Therefore 2024 ends of yarn are hidden in the body of the fabric. There are many qualities of tapestry, but in the production of the standard quality only 216 ends of face yarn are required, instead of 1,280, which shows at once that the brussels carpet has the great advantage being thicker, softer and altogether a durable cloth apart from other advantages which it possesses. There is a limitation in the number of colors used in a brussels. In tapestry there is no nit. In the brussels the whole of the dorses show a more or less striped appearance at the back of the fabric. In a tapestry they do not show at the back all this. It fact is made use of by householders in purchasing carpets, this being about the only way the average person can tell the difference between them. In order to pass off tapestry as assests some ingenious makers have sorted to the stripping in a regular manner of the backs of the former. The ripy effect in the latter is broken and irregular. A casual observation of the early defined character of a brussels tern should enable a buyer to distinguish between the two fabrics.—Furthers’ Gazette. Shakespeare and Bacon. A famous historian well known personally in Boston told the following story when he was asked what he ought of the Shakespeare-Bacon converse: “I was once librarian in a tall town, and it was my custom to dialogue books on the real meaning of angel, astrology, modern spiritualism, under the general head ‘Insane literature.’ When any volume written support of the Baconian theory appeared, I catalogued it under the same d.”—Boston Journal.

This “corner” is a cut in the top of the box to guide the sap into the cavities left for the gum, and the man who “works” the “crop” goes systematically from box to box, starting the sap anew with fresh incisions, working in this way 10,000 boxes during the season. The sap or gum fills the boxes with a clear, sticky, thick fluid, and this is removed by the “dipper.” Scattered through the woods are barrels in which the “dipper” deposits the gum, which is then hauled to the still. About a quart of sap is taken from each box by means of the trowel shaped scoop used by the dipper, and then the hacker comes along and starts the flow afresh by wounding the tree again. The turpentine maker watches his men closely, for the Tar Heels are an easy going people and require to be urged by the “rider,” who goes through the woods on horseback examining the crop, hurrying the dippers and hackers and sending the barreled gum to the still. The first or “virgin” sap which flows in the spring makes the best rosin, and the poorest is the product of the hardened gum which is left on the sides of the boxes when the sap “turns down” in the fall. This is removed by the “scraper,” who moves through the woods with his scraping tool, gathering the leavings. The still is a large copper vat hooded with a close fitting cover in which is a funnel which in turn is connected with the “worm” of the still. This worm runs down into another vat near at hand, and in this vat the fumes or vapor of the heated gum is distilled into turpentine. Fire under the copper vat heats the gum, and the volatile parts rise to the funnel, pass into the still and are condensed by the water in the second vat into spirits of turpentine. The residuum left in the vat is the rosin of commerce, which is passed through a series of strainers and sieves to the barrels, which are made on the spot. The turpentine, however, cannot be barreled so easily; for it will work through an ordinary barrel. It is placed in white pine barrels which have been coated inside with several coats of strong, hot glue until the barrel is impervious to the subtle fluid. The trees are worked for five or six seasons, and then the turpentine maker moves to another part of the woods. He started in North Carolina, crossed over to South Carolina and is still moving toward the gulf. Forest fires destroy the pines faster than the hacker does, for the flames sweep over large areas before they die out. Careful owners of turpentine woods have the pine straw and fallen underbrush raked away from their trees before the season begins, and collecting this material in some safe spot wait for a quiet day when no wind will cool the wet finger, and then they burn the rakings. Negroes are common laborers of the turpentine woods, but white men are plentiful. They live in rough shanties in the woods, with the stables for the mules and horses near at hand. No work is more healthful than turpentine making, for it is all out of doors in the depths of the balmy, health giving pines, free from the malaria of the swamps and from sudden changes of weather.—Chicago Record.
