That ws« an embarrassing position I in which a fashionable New York wom.an foamd beret*.f recently.

She wore it ; st the weddinr and the next day drove . - j the urn .mer's and returned it. saying ’it d?i not suit. It happened that the ; iatmaker, who qnite u&h-re- .-•! the 1 sitnatfen. had been stmlitriy tried rev-' J eral times of late. “Dad you wear > i t_s hat at tse 3 RAnk wedding ~ <-r---iajT site isk -i bluntly.

Immense quantities are also used in the manufacture of glucose, vi.icii. among other th mgs. • enters largely into the manufacture of beer as a substitute for malt. " A large quantity of coru is used an | nua’ly in the manufacture of whisky, j iß d nearly 15.<*-.*— bushels are use! i everv rear in the manufacture of co-1 mgne spirits and akobcL Even in the manufacture of these products nothing is lost.

The strocrest mns ie in the human, body is the gluteus maximus. Hardly a movemeut of the tower extremities ran be made without bringing it into play, but its chief duty is to balance | the pelvis on the head of the thigh; bone.' It assists in carrying the leg for- : wird and outward in walking, andj without its aid any movement of the! t-.dy from the hips would be impossi-. bte. As it is tte strongest, so is it also the largest mast-le we possess. In the full j grown man it can exert a force of 110; pounds to the square inch of its section j in the thickest part. Another strong muscle, which is sit-. anted in the calf of the leg. is caps-: ble of sustaining seven times the I weight of the body. Tte great tendon ; which Is inserted in the beel bone, call- : ed tendon acttiles. is also of singular strength. When removed from the < body, it Las sustained a weight of ■ 2.,,, pounds, yet sometimes by the suddton action cf the muscles of the : calf, to which it belongs, it has been snapped across. PERMANENT MAGNETS. The Simplest Way at Masnettilns a Bar of Steel. The simplest way of magnetising a! bar of steel is that known as "single ' touch." The Lar to be magnetized is laid on the table and the pole of a pewerful magnet is rubbed from ten to ■ twenty times along its length, always I tn the same direction. If the north! pole of the magnet is employed the end | of the bar first touched will also be- ' come a n-.'rth pole, while the opposite end. at which the magnet is lifted be- \ fore returning, will be a south pole. There are other s nd more complicated ' ■ethods. known as "divided touch”; and "double touch.” in which two and i even four magnets are emptoyed. A steel bar can also be magnetized by placing it within a coil of insulated ‘ wire, through which a galvanic current is rfni-ulating. The magnetism induced in this way. however, is weak compa red with that which can be procured • if the sii . - reng-.h of current is em-J ployed thr ugh the intervention of an eJectro-magact. -Uatalet" at Klxiaare. Sb-tkespenre-ta commentators hav= wondered why the poet placed the scenes of "Hamlet" at Eisinore. in the is. nd i f zeatond. whereas the Danishprince lived and died in Jutland. But the mur v-ai authorities at Elsinore discovered In their archives that an English company wag. acting tn their town in IJ.S7 or Ihrc. and among the names of the actors are several of those : who were acting with Shakespeare in | London in 15<» Obviously these ae- j tors must have talked about their ad- i ventures in Denmark, and so Stake- J speare became well acquainted with! Elsinore and when he wrote • Hamlet" ■ naturally placed the scene in a place i which be knew by description rather; than in a place of which be knew noth- i ing. The Ge®er*l Itlllty Ceaul. In those larger towns in Turkey where England is rep-resented by a consul that official is looked upon as a sort of court of appeal by Christians. Armenians. Bulgarians. Macedonians and even Jews, who have probably never heard an English word spoken, will appeal to the British consul when in difficulties, and he rarely refuses his kind offices. In ordinary cases his unofficial backing of the "giaours" is effective. C»Tl®«ity. “Professcr,” said Mrs. Xooaey to the cranky old professor of archaeology.
