FLOWER PICKERS OF GRASSE. j
The peasant women and girls of
Grasse. in the south of France, arc
kept employed in picking and sorting
flowers for perfume. Grass? being tlia
centre of that industry. Violet gathering
begins in March; jessamine, orange
blossom, rose and tuberose in May;
the mignonette in August, and the
cassia in September. The work of
picking is done between 5 and 11
o'clock in the morning, the remainder
of the day being spent In sorting and ,
picking apart the flowers. The per- j
fume making begins with spreading
the petals upon layers of pure lard
that covers plates of glass, and the
flower layers are renewed three or
four times before the fat has become
thoroughly saturated with the perfume.
This perfumed lard is the
"pomade" of commerce, out of which
are made extracts and fine pomades.

Warning Given by a Tree.
"I saw in the Star not long ago,
Copied from a New York paper," said
a lady living near Greeley, Pike County,
Pennsylvania, "a story about an
apple tree blossoming in October, and
the fatal results of it. The story was
tcld as coming from a man, and he
said that, an apple tree at his home
had blossomed ten years before in October.
and shortly afterward his wife
had died. It. had not blossomed again
in October for several years, and then
within a month his mother had died.
Then there was another lapse, and
when he told the story, which was
about the first of October, the tree was
fcgain in blossom, and he was greatly i
amturoea as 10 wusi mus ^yiag j
happen next. Well, that story was ;
mine, and the reporter put it in the !
name of a man, because I didn't want !
to appear in it. Two weeks after I
had told the story to a party of friends
in which the reporter was, I went
back home, and within a week tho
house took fire &ftd burned to the
ground. It was so sudden that' we
barely managed to get out with our
lives, and our chief articles of apparel
were bathrobes and blankets, ft was
a country placd, and We had no means
of putting cut the fire, so everything
was lost. The only consolation we
have is that the fatal apple tree stood
so close to the house that it was burned
to a crisp, and it, at least, will
never again be the messenger of bad
luck, however much other trees may
bring with their October blossoms."

A I^ooiu For Good Koado.
William II. Moore, the President of
the Good Roads Department of the
National Good Roads and Irrigation
Congress, recently visited Washington,
where he went as the Chairman of a
committee to obtain Federal action In
behalf of good roads. Mr. Moore said
That the committee had been successful
in its mission, which was to obtain
an application for an appropriation of
$150,000 "or the eflice of road inquiry
in the Department of Agriculture. The
object of the oflice is to educate the
farmers so that they will recognize the
necessity of good roads. Last year J
its appropriation was only $14,000. j
The committee called cn Secretary |
"Wilson and presented its plan, which i
is that the Department shall construct ;
a mile of model road in every State i
in the Union. Mr. Wilson indorsed j
the project immediately and made the ,
necessary recommendation for the ap- j
propriation in his report. The com- ,
mittee also called 011 the President! I
who showed a lively interest in the j
plan and said that it had his hearty j
approval. Mr. Moore is convinced that !
the President's influence will be used j
to bring about the appropriation. "Mr.
Moore has already obtained the in- j
dorsement of more than two hundred ;
Senators and Congressmen for the appropriation.
The plan advocated by the Congress
at which Representatives of thirtyeight
States were present, is that a
nnortor milf? nf mnrlfd rnnd shall bo
vl""4 ^ -built
by the Federal Government in
lour parts of each State. At the same
time the thirty-five State Legislatures
that meet next year will be asked to
ad.opt good roads legislation, and Mr..
Moore is drafting three bills to submit
to thein. He intends to appoint a
Representative of the Congress io
every county in the nation who shall
have power to appoint township representatives,
so that there will be a
thoroughly organized good roads srmy
at work all the time. Mr. Moore has
convinced Senator Piatt and Senator
Depew of the propriety of the plan.
He has a letter from Stuyvesant Fish,.
President of the Illinois Central Railroad,
in which Mr. Fish says:
"I do not know much about irrigation,
but I do know that the absence
of good roads is costing the people of
this country annually about as much
money as they pay for all the freight
transported by all the railroads."
A National Organization.
"The number of States interested in
the Interstate Good Roads Association
has increased to such an extent that
the time has come to make it a national
organization." said Martin Dodge,
Director of Public Road Inquiries at
Washington. About thirty States in
the Union already have been organized
either as independent associations
or as branches of the Interstate Association.
"In 1S93 Congress appropriated $.10.000
to enable the Secretary of Agriculture
to carry on the work of gathering
and disseminating information as to
the construction and maintenance of
public roads. Appropriations of $8000
for the same purpose were renewed
annually afterward until that year,
when it was increased to $14,000.
"A further increase will be sought,
and it is my intention to enlarge the
work by adding to the didactic method
of teaching the object lesson method,
whereby object lesson roads shall be
built in every State as rapidly as possible.
Such object lesson roads already
have been built at Doylestown.
Penn.; -Port Huron, Mich.; Saginaw,
Mich.; Topeka, Kan., and elsewhere.
"This work will be continued in the
Northern States as soon as the weather
will permit During the winter seascn
the work will be carried on to the exteht
of our limited means in the Southern
States.
"A laboratory will soon be established
at Washington under the direction
of Dr. Wiley, chief chemist in the
Agricultural Department, for the purpose
of testing, chemically and mechanically,
all suitable road building
materials. What we need is an appropriation
by Congress of an amount
of money whieh will enable this work
to be carried on in a manner some
what commensurate with the size and
needs of the country."
Unique Plan to Improve Roads.
The Board of Supervisors of Orange
County, N. Y., has authorized a $200,000
bond issue for the purpose of road
improvements. The action was taken
on the recommendation of Assemblyman
Louis Bedell, who stated that bis
plan for road improvement would cost
the county nothing. Briefly outlined
it is as follows:
The Orange County Road Improvement
Association, which Mr. Bedell
represents, has induced the State Engineer
to make an estimate which
would cost $2000 per mile, to be operated
under the Higbie-Arm strong law.
Four per cent, bonds of this county |
to the amount of $200,000 could be
sold at a premium of eight per cent.,
which would give $16,000 to establish
a sinking fund. The State will pay
half the cost of construction, whica
will make $400,000.
The Road Improvement Asscciation
will give a bond to do the work at ten
per cent, profit. This amount, $10,000,
will be added to the sinking fund.
The railroads of the county have
agreed to pay half the cost of abolishing
grade crossings, about $7000,
which, also placed in the sinking fund,
will bring the total to $63,000, and this
amount in thirty years will pay off the
bonds at maturity.
Baggage Rules in Greece.
Consul McGinley reports to the State
Department from Athens: "The Greek
health authorities require that all
trunks, packages, etc.. the personal
{ baggage of travelers, when unaccompanied
by their owners, must, on arI
rival at any port in Greece, be accompanied
by a certificate of origin or a
certificate from the health authorities
of the port from which the baggage
was shipped to Greece. As ignorance
of the foregoing rule has caused many
American travelers delay and troubie
in regaining possession of such baggage,
and as thousands of Americans
annually visit Atlums and others parts
of Greece, this information should be
published widely in order that they
may come prepared with the necessary
certificates to release their baggage
without delay.?The Express Gazette.

[ HE FOUND THE ROLL UNDISTURBED
The Little Broker's Marvelous Tale of
Human Honesty.
Somebouy in a group back of the
Cotton- Exchange told a story about
the miraculous recovery of a lost
i "watch, and that, of course. Set the ball
! rolling.. As usual in such cases, the
I next man capped the incident by a still
! more astonishing experience, and
{ finally it was "passed up" to a quiet
! little future broker, who had been lisj
toning without comment. "I never
, had but one adventure of that kind in
| my life," he said modestly, "and I'm
afraid it's hardly worth telling. It
happened in this way: One afternoon
last spring I went down to the postofiioe
to resistor a letter, and. before
going to the window, I stopped at the
: public writing desk to put the address
; on the envelope. I had a bis fat roll
! of bills in my hand at the time and
! laid them down on the led.se, beside
: the ink well. I don't recall the exact
j sura they represented, but it was
I large?up iuto the thousands. I was
| in a great hurry and very much preoc|
cupied over another matter, and when
I finished the address I rushed off to
the registry alcove, forgetting all about
I the wad on the desk. After that
I everything seemed to conspire to di|
vert my mind. As I was leaving the
i building i bumped into our nurse girl,
j who was hunting for me frantically
! with a message that the baby had the
croup end would I please send the doctor
at once. I found him, finally, and
then met ray partner, who had a transI
fer to be signed immediately before a
notary. To make a long story short,
fully two hours had elapsed before I
suddenly remembered about the roll
of bills. It flashed through my mind
like a shot, and at the next instant I
had whirled around and was sprinting
for the postoffice like a madman. Of
course. I had no hope of finding anything
more than a clue, and when 1
tore up to the desk and saw the roll
lying almost exactly where I had left
it X could hardly believe my eyes. I
grabbed it and counted the bills. Not
one was missing. That, gentlemen,
occurred in broad daylight, at the
busiest part of the afternoon, and in a
place where hundreds of people were
continually passing to and fro. I will
leave it to you whether the incident
was not somewhat remarkable."
"Was the wad in plain sight?" asked
one of the listeners, after a pause.
"Yes. sir," replied the little broker,
"and I afterward learned that it had
been picked up and examined by a
number of different people." "Very
strange," remarked a rice man, ironically;
"the bills were genuine, I suppose."
"Certainly," replied the little
man, "but I forgot to mention that
they were unreceipted.','?New Orleans

Shooting an Elephant.
"Sir Roger," the big elephant of the
Scottish Zoo in Glasgow, war- recently
shot owing to his having shown signs
of vieiousness. The great animal was
confined in a specially-constructed
cage of iron bars and heavy wooden
beams. A considerable number of

spectators wunesseu me cictuuuu,
which was carried through by a party
of five, comprising two sergeants of
the Royal Scots Fusiliers, a city gunmaker
and two assistants. They were
armed with special rifles and ammunition.
The animal stood quietly with
his hciad protruding from the opening
in his cage. At the signal to fire the
reports of the five rifles rang out simultaneously.
The elephant stood
without making the slightest sound or
motion for two or three moments.
Another volley was discharged, and
his head dropped a little on to the
beam at the bottom of the aperture.
He then slowly sank on his side and
died.?London Globe.
Great Flocks of Duck?,
It is a known fact that the greatest
flight of ducks known for years
swept down the Mississippi Valley last
fall. The Houston Post tells of the
destructiveness of the web feet to the
rice fields of that part of Texas. In
one night flocks swept down on a field
of about ten acres that had been
shocked up, totally destroying the
grain. They tore the shocks to pieces,
scattering the straw and cereal all
over. What they did nor eat they put
out of use. Nightly the ducks come by
the million to feed in the rice country,
and it is no trick at all to spend an
hour or so just before dark'and kill a
wagon load of the finest ducks that
fiy to the coast.

In an article in the Woman's Hot i i

i scribes as follows a military wedding j?
I performed at an isolated post in Ari- p

I an order came for Mr. Knot to go to ,

were to be married next Jufae, and he r
insisted upon leaving her a bride, in- r
stead of a fiancee, hoping she might r
join him if not soon recalled. I
"Only a few in the garrison had l
known that the order to our senior :
lieutenant was not wholly unexpected, t
j The colonel's family had guarded well c
[ the secret. . .* * * The cere- 1
! mony, with all its features, was so c
picturesque and so unlike those we i
hare seen in civilian life. On the af- *
ternoon of New Year's day blue-Coated (
soldiery walked with formal tre&d u#
and down the walk which led from
the colonel's quarters to the chapel. At 1
the former place a national flag al- <
most hid the little veranda, which ;
was transformed into a bower of flow- : i
ers and foliage, for the day was warm ! i
and dry, as if Nature, too, smiled upon *
the occasion. Soft rugs carpeted the \
walk to the gate, and there the bridal J
party formed after the guests had "
been received. A tiny girl and boy
tastefully gowned formed a fair advance
guard for the party, aiid scattered
flowers on the way from the
Southwick home to the chapel. The
clocro ti-oo n nf fprns unrt in thp
center was a small silk American flag.
Here and there on the walls of the
chapel were military ensigns and guidons
in beautiful colors, and a portiere
of flags hid the balcony, behind which
a stringed quartet struck sweet strains.
"The ceremony was performed In
front of the stage, and the solemn
words of the ritual Were spoken to the
strains of the hidden music. Through
the ribboned aisle the bridal procession
retreated and marched to the
colonel's home. The regimental band
played in welcome, and squads of
soldiers stood in attention about the
lawn, while Mr. and Mrs. Knox, beneath
the national ensign, received
congratulations before refreshments
were served,
THE STYLES OF HAIR DRESSING.
It is reported by some foreign authority
on fashions that dyeing the
hair is entirely out of style, dark, natural
tints being the mode once again.
Change in the way of doing the hair
is one of the great secrets of success
In dress, providing the style is always
in harmony with the shape of the head
and contour of the face. There is an
evident effort to lower the chignon to
the nap-of the neck, but this mode
is hot readily accepted by all women,
so for the present the hair is arranged
high on the head for evening dres^
and a little below the crown for or
dinary wear.
Many young girls adopt the iow style
of hair dressing, which is very pretty
with the new gypsy hat. Another
point in fashionable hair dressing is
bringing the locks well down on the
forehead, either parted at one side or
in a soft pompadour falling over the
ears.
The decorations are the varying
point in hair dressing for evening, and
anything between diadem diamond
combs and a simple rose seems to be
permissible. Diamond pins in circles,
crescents and oblong shapes are worn
at the back with a comb above and
side combs and an ornamental bow in
addition. In fact, this craze for decoration
is so often overdone that the
later fancy for one or two roses is &
pretty relief from the barbaric tendencies
of the day. .The new gold
roses are charming in the dark hair,
and some of the colors are quite as
beautiful.

MONTANA'S WOMAN LAWYER
Mrs. Ella Knowles Haskell, of He
ena, Mont., is the first woman lawy<
from the state of Montana, the fir:
woman assistant attorney general i
the United States, and she has receh
ed the largest fee ever paid to a leg!
practitioner of the gentler sex. whit
fee was $10,000, for her services in
case involving valuable copper an
silver mines in Butte City, in whic
James B. Haggin, the multi-millior
aire of California, was the plaintii
She defeated Mr. Haggln's attorney
with flying colors.
"She is the only woman," sa3
Joaquin Miller in his "History of Moi
tana," "who ever went to Washing
ton as the accredited representative <
a sovereign state on official business
This was in her capacity as assistai
attorney general, and on this oecz
sion she saved to Montana scho
lands amounting in value to $200,00
appearing in person before the Lar
Office officials.
In 1S91 she received the Fopulii
nomination for attorney general, bi
was defeated by Henry J. Haskel
Republican, whom she married a ye:
later.
Hot House Crapes Coming Into Favor,
The time will probably come i
America when the European grap
will again be a valuable commerch
fruit. It was at one time, the frn
selling readily at $1.50 a pound. Th
cultivation went down for seven
reasons, among them the fear of com
petition with the outdoor grown En
ropean grapes from California, tL
injury to the roots by the phylloxer
and the difficulty of getting the intel
ligent labor to manage the vine prop
erly. It is clear, however, that n
more fear of competition with tfc
California product need be feared tha
with the Spanish grapes that come i
barrels of cork dust from the 01
World. These are very good in the
way, and will usually bring remunerc
tive returns, though the figures t
small. There is no comparison bi
tween these in quality as compare
wiih those grown under glass, by or
who knows his business. This hf
been abundantly proved in England.Meehan's

U.
! THE AMERICAN GIRL'S ATTRAC!
TIONS.
The Duke of Manchester, who prae- *
i ; tlses what ho preaches, says that for-j *
pign noblemen marry American girls! 6
because they are beautiful, witty, ^
graceful, high-bred. original, innocent, < ^
audacious, intellectual and practical., ^
I That is to say, because they are the t
sum of all the virtues. But isn't it: '
! odd that practically oil of the girls;
. . . . ! r
1 nought t\v tiiose roreien gentry are v
. rich? There are dead loads of i *
' American girls who have all the quali-' t
; ties enumerated by the big duke. and. c
L yet do not contract foreign alliances, j "
! With few exceptions, foreign noblemen
are attracted only to rich American!
girls. Of course, It may be only a?
, coincidence, but it suggests all sorts! i
of idle speculations.?St. Louis Post- *

Experiments in France with cannon j

? thickest of London fogs has been sugi
