An Income from Roses. In do country in the universe has the rose been brought so nearly to perfection as in China. Extremely magnificent are the rose gardens of the emperor, and the revenue yearly obtained from the sale of oil of roses and rose -water forms a very large addition to the imperial coffers. Only uembers of the imperial family, nobility, military dignitaries, and a few other notabilities are allowed to have attar of roses in their dwellings, and very severe punishments are meted out to ordinary citizens in whose possession even one drop of the precious essence is found. Originally only two kinds of roses were known in the Flowery Land the white an l the red moss roses and the smaller they were the more highly were they valued. The leaves are greatly prized as amulets.

A Study In Mechanics. The Deering Ideal Mower, made in Chicago, affords an interesting study In advanced machines, and i3 a3 perfect a machine as brain, brawn and money can build. It i? furnished throughout with Deering Roller and Ball Bearings. The "Ideal" ha3 a very wide truck and high wheels, insuring great stabliity m.-I ample traction. Its gears are strong and reliable. In this machine the amount of lost motion is so s s'ht that the instant one of the mono," wheels starts it communicates power to the crank shaft and knife, uus making it possible to start in heavy grass without backing. The knife may be removed In fifteen seconds, simply by raising a latch. It is the only mower on the market equipped with ball bearings of the bicycle pattern.

CHOOSING A SERVANT.

Prof. Lombro8o' System Might Be Used with Good Results. It is doubtful if anv two housewives absolutely agree as to the rules that govern them in choosing a servant, says the New York Time Generally speaking, the only points judged are the outward appearance and ability to fill the varied requirements of domestic call. Personal characteristics are usually left to fate. Fate never works slowly where a servant is concerned. Her disposition reveals itself on the day of her arrival. Measures should be taken accordingly. The trouble is that they are not. Hence the cry of the housewife who has had a cantankerous maid of all work for three years and has never had the courage to discharge her. The walls of the intelligence offices cannot speak, else we might know the character of seemingly momentous interrogations. We might actually learn that the prospective domestic is actually questioned as to her disposition and other mental paradoxes. As it is, however, one is bound to believe that no such inquiries are made, or, if made, no judicious and discriminating judgment is evolved in weighing answers. Now, all this bother above emphasized might easily be avoided if housewifes would only call the tenets of Professor Lombroso to their rescue. Having received satisfactory answers as to ability, etc., and being pleased with the dress and general manners of the candidate, let the housewife examine the head before her of course, in a way that can give no possible offense, a way which may be determined by circumstances. If the head extends well back behind the ear, the mistress may be sure that the "domestic region" is well developed. It must be noted, too, whether the "bump of firmness" rises above that of self-esteem. Of course, the head that would be admirable to have on a cook would never lo for a lady's waiting maid. Also would this system of selection be cf use to servants, for it would enable them to rectify mistakes in their own choice of employment. And the Italian scientist could at last boast that he was of actual benefit to mankind. CoBhingr Leads to Consumption. Kemp's Balsam will stop the cousn at once.

DICK RODNEY;

BY JAMES GRANT.

CHAPTER XXV. (Continued.) "All's over now," said Tom Lambourne, as he grasped the tiller with a firm hand, after carefully wrapping a blanket round poor Hislop. who drooped beside him in the stern-sheets. "Which way shall we pull?" asked the bowman, as we paused with our cars in the rowlocks. "It matters little, mates," cried Tom, in a loud voice, with his left hand ?t the side of his mouth, to send Waat he said forward above the roar of the wind and sea. "We must be many hundred miles from Brazil, the nearest land, and we can do nothing now but keep our boat alive by baling and steering till daybreak. Now, Master Hislop," he added, lowering .his voice, "how do you feel, sir?'' "I feel that I am quite in your way, my lads a useless hand aboard, to consume your food and water," replied Hislop, faintly. "Why, sir," said Probart, the stroke oarsman, "you don't think we could have left you to burn in that poor old brig?" "No, not exactly; still I am of no u.e to you, and I feel" "What, sir, what?" asked Tom, anxiously. "Heart sick and despairing," moaned Hislop, letting his chin drop on his breast. "Don't talk so, sir," said Lambourne, stoutly; "despair never found a place in the heart of a British sailor." "You are right, Tom; and perhaps I'll gather headway and get to windward yet." "Of course you will," replied Tom, cheerfully; "but here's a r,ea coming together, lads, pull together!" Despair might well have found a place in all our breasts at that awful crisis; but Tom's bluff and cheerful way prevented our hearts from sinking, though the hours of that awful night seemed dark and long. Well, without compass, chart, or quadrant, there we were, ten in number, in an open boat, tossing upon a dark and stormy sea, enveloped in clouds, with the red lightning gleaming through their ragged openings, or at the far and fiat horizon ignorant cf whtre we were, where to steer for, or what to do, and full of terrible anticipations for the future! We were silent and sleepless. My heart was full of horror, grief and vague alarm, when I thought of my home the quiet, the happy and peaceful old rectory, with all v.-ho loved me there, and whom I might never see again. The hot tears that started to my eyes mingled with the cold spray that drenched my cheeks, and there seemed but one consolation for me, that my father, my affectionate mother and sisters, dear Dot and little Sybil, could never know how 1 perished by hunger or drowning, if such were to be my fate. All the stories I had heard or read cf ship-wrecked men their sufferings, their endurance of gnawing hunger and burning thirst, their cannibalism, their mortal struggles with their dearest friends for the last morsel of food, for the last drop of water, and how the weak perished that the strong might live crowded upon my memory to augment the real terrors of our situation. So suddenly had this final catastrophe come upon us that we had considerable difficulty in assuring ourselves of its reality, and that it was not a dream a dream, alas! from which there might be no awakening. So hour after hour passed darkly, slowly, and silently on. The turbulence of the wind and waves abated, the lightning passed away, the send ceased to whirl, the vapors were divided in heaven, and a faint light that stole tremulously upward from the horizon served to indicate the east and the dawn of the coming day. CHAPTER XXVI. Discover Land. The following are the names of those who escaped with me in the longboat: Marc Hislop, mate. Thomas Lambourne, second mate. Francis Probart, carpenter. John Thomas Burnett, ship's cook. Edward Carlton. Henry Warren. Hugh Chute. Matthew Hipkin. William Wilkins, usually called "Boy Bill " As the morning light came in there appeared to the southwestward a vast bank of mist or cloud, which shrouded half the sky and assumed a variety of beautiful tints when the rising sun shone on it yellow and saffron, deepening into purple and blue as its masses changed in the contrary currents of air; while to the eastward, in the quarter of the sun's ascension, the rippling ocean shone as if covered with tremulous and glittering plates of mingled gold and green. A ration of rum-and-water In equal proportions was now served round to each man. the leathern cover of a bunec being our only cup, as we had omitted a drinking vessel among our hastily collected stores. Half of a biscuit given to each constituted our breakfast, and with hope dawning with the day in our hearts we shipped our oars and pulled stoutly toward the west. Tom Lambourne steered; the sea was smooth, the wind light, and in our favor; so ere long the mast was shipped and a sail hoisted to lessen the labor of the rowers. We were anxious for the dense bank of jnirple cloud to clear away, that we might have a more extensive view of the horizon, and perhaps discover a sail, but the envious vapor seemed to darken and to roll before us, or rather before the wind that bore us aft after It. AbfoU midday, when we were pausing on our oars, breathless and panting with heat, drenched with perspira

Or. The Adventures of i

An Eton Boy... .

St tion, which ran into our eyes and trickled down our breasts, and when visions of ice-water and bitter beer came tantalizingly to memory for sea and sky were equally hot, as the former seemed to welter and become oily under the blaze of the latter a sharpwinged bird that skimmed past us suddenly caught the hollow eye of Hislop, who, I thought, was sleeping. "Do you see that bird. Tom?" he exclaimed, half starting up from the stern-sheets; "it is a man-of-war bird!" "What then, sir?" "We must be near land," replied the mate. "Land!" reiterated every one in the boat, their voices expressing joy, surprise or incredulity. "Is it Brazil?" asked Tattooed Tom. with amazement in his singular face. "I do not think so." said Hislop. passing a hand wearily and reflectively over his pale forehead. "Brazil it is impossible, by the last reckoning I made before that Spaniard wounded me. But Heaven only knows where we may have drifted to since then!' "The wind and currents may have taken us many hundred miles from where the last observation was made," added Carlton. "But I am convinced that we are near land look at the sc a-wrac k that passes us now; and we must be out of the track of ihe Gulf-weed." continued the mate, with confidence. "And may I never see the Xore again if that ain't land now, looming right ahead through the fog-bank!" exclaimed Tom, starting up and shading his eyes from the sun with both hands, as he peered intently westward. As the reader may imagine, we all gazed anxiously enough in the direction indicated by the old seaman, and a swell of rapture rose in the breasts of all when something in the form of a headland or bluff could be distinctly seen right ahead, bearing due west, about seven miles distant, standing out from the bank of vapor, or looming like a darker shadow within it. This appearance never changed in outline, but remained stationary, and every moment became more defined and confirmed. Exclamations of jcy now broke from us, and we congratulated each other on making the land so soon and so unexpectedly, without enduring the miseries which so frequently fall to the lot of those who are cast away, as we were, in an open boat, at sea. "But what land is it?" was the general inquiry. Another allowance of grog was served round; the oars were again shipped, we bent our backs and breasts sturdily to the task, and at every stroke almost lifted the boat clean out of the shining water in cur eagerness to reach this suddenly discovered shore. This had such an effect upon Marc Hislop that, though weak and sinking as he had been, he begged that he might be allowed to steer the boat a little way, while Tom Lambourne kept a bright lookout ahead, to watch for any ripple or surf that might indicate the locality of a treacherous coral reef, as such might prove dangerous to a large and heavily laden craft like curs. With every stroke of the bending oars the land seemed to rite higher and more high. Ere long we could make out its form clearly. It was bold. locky and mountainous, and as the mlj.t dispersed or rose upward into mid air, we could see the dark brown of the bluff, and some trees of strange aspect, with drooping foliage on its summit, were clearly defined, as they stood between us and the blue sky beyond. We soon made out d'stinctly that it was a large island. The shore was somewhat level to the northeast, and in the center towered an almost perpendicular mountain of vast height, the sides of which seemed covered with furze, gorse and brushwood. Elsewhere its dusky and copper-colored rocks started sheer out of the sea, whose waters formed a zone of snow-white surf around their base. We headed the boat to the northeast, where the shore seemed more approachable, and as we pulled along it, but keeping fully three miles off, we saw high crags, deep ravines, shady woods and dells in the interior, though no appearance of houses, of wigwams, or of inhabitants. Many speculations were now ventured as to what island this might be. "May it not be land that has never before been discovered?" I suggested, with a glow of pleasure, in the anti.ipation of being among the first to tread an unexplored and hitherto unknown shore. Hislop smiled and shook his head. Henry Warren, who had been an old South Sea whaler, suggested that it was the island Grando, but Hislop assured us that this was impossible. In the first place, by the position of the sun, he could see that we were not so far south as the parallel of Port San Giorgio on the Brazilian shore, and in the second, the existence of such an island was doubted. "Can it be Trinidad Island Tristan da Cunha, or the Hocks of Martin Vaz?" asked Tom Lambourne. "If the latter," replied Hislop, "we should now be in south latitude "0 deg. 27 min., but this land in no way answers to the aspect of the Martin Vaz Rocks." "Did you ever see them, sir?" asked several. "No; but they are described by La Perrou?e as appearing like five distinct headlands." After pausing and pondering for a moment, he suddenly added, with confidence. "It Is the island of Alphonso de Albuquerque!" "Uov: do you know?" 1 inquired. "By the appearance of that cliff, and the mountain inland." "You have been here before?" asked Probart. "Never; but I know it to be Alphonso by that cliff on the north, and the mountain, too, which were particularly described in a Spanish book I lost in

the Eugenie. The mountain is a peak which the author says resembles did any of ycu ever see a place like it before?" "It is as like Tenny Reef from the port of Santa Cruz as one egg is like another!" exclaimed Tom Lambourne. "Exactly, Tom, that is what the Spanish author likens it to, though he doesn't use the simile. So if it is the island of Alphonso, we are now somewhere in south latitude 37 deg. 6 min., and west longitude 12 deg. 2 min. Pull southward, my lads, the shore opens a bit beyond that headland. We shall find a smooth beach probably within that bight yonder." "Anyway we're not in pilot's water," added Tom, laughing; "give way, mates stretch out." We pulled with a hearty will, and ere long were close in shore so close that our larboard oars seemed almost to touch the mighty rocks which rose sheer from the sea. like mighty cyclopean wails, but covered with the greenest moss; they overhung and overshadowed the dark, deep water that washed their base, and as they shielded us from the fierce noonday heat of tne sun, we found the partial co-.lness refreshing and delightful. As Hislop ha I foreseen, on rounding the bluff, the shore receded inward, and through a line of white surf, like that which boils over the bar at a river's mouth, we dashed into a beautiful little bay. the sandy beach of which was shaded by groves of bright green tre?s. Still we saw no trace of inhabitants: but selecting a small creek, which was almost concealed by trees that grew, like mangroves, close to the edge of the water, we ran our boat in. moored her securely, where none were likely to find her save ourselves, and then all save Hislop and Billy the cabin boy. who remained to attend him, we went on an exploring expedition in search of natives or whatever might turn up next. (To be continued.)

GLOVE MAKING. Changes That Have Taken Tlaoe in Methods. The glove industry, which was first settled in Gloversville. N. Y.. in ISoJ. now represents an investment of no less than $15.M0O.(H'i. Rough mittens made from the deerskins received from the traders in exchange for tin were the first product oMhe settlement, and the first load of gloves that went to Ucston was forwarded in 1!2.". In the early days of the industry giovemaking was followed exclusively by women, but it now engages the son ices of a large number of men. The old stvle was for the glover to lay his pattern on the leather and then, after marking the outline with a leadpencil. to cut it out with his shears. The glove was sewed by hand, and when seams had been pounded it went through the process of pressing. This was don? by placing it between two boards, on which the glovemaker sat while making another pair. The modem method of manufacturing the glove is to cut the leather and fold it over so that the back is larger than the front. The operator then makes three cuts through the- doubled pieces, so that "'t may pri.duco the back and front for th four fingers. Next an ovoid hole is cut for the insertion of the thumbpiece. Long strips or gussets are sewn on the inner side of the first and fourth finKevs; but the i-c-'-nnd and third finger gussets are sewn f-n both sides. Afterwaid small diamond-shaped pieces are cut. litte! and sewn in the spaces between the bases of the fingers. The ornamental embroidery is then stitched on the back, the buttons or fasteners fitted and the wrists hemmed and the glove is finished. The operators earn on an average $2 a day. VFoopiiij5 at the Theater. "There's just this about crying at the theater,' said the average woman. "You'll try if you're in the mood for it and you won't if you're not no matter how harrowing or nonharrowin the play may ho. Like most average women, I rarely cry, either at the theater or anywhere, but I long a?o discovered that it depends entirely upon my mood at the time. I once went to a frontline comedy and founi the tears filling my eyes just because I happened to he blue at the time, and I've been at many a play with all the women around me mopping their eyes and drying their pocket-handkerchiefs cn their fans, while I being for some reason or other uplifted sat there dry-eyed, almost smiling. No matter what my mood, however, the thing sure to keep me from weeping at the theater is any emotional display on the part of her who is with me. I can attend the wecpiest kind of a play unmoved with my sister, for she starts in away ahead of time, making me feel more like laughing than crying, and then when the true lachrymose opportunity arrives it finds me pathos-proof. This is the only way by which I may mike myself immune from weeping at theaters upon all occasions." Philadelphia Times. The "Eye" of an Awful Storm. The observations of Captain Carpenter, of the Royal Navy, show that the hurricane which destroyed more than 17,000 houses and hundreds of lives in the islands of UaiLados and St. Vincent last September had a calm "eye" at its center four miles in diameter. The phenomenon of a central calm at the core of a whirling storm is characteristic of the Wet Indian hurricanes. The diameter of the storm center, including the circling winds that enclosed the eye, was about thirty-five miles during tno period of greatest destruction. After the hurricane passed St. Vincent, the storm center enlarged to a diameter of 170 miles. The Special Delivery Letters. A special delivery stamp crowns an ordinary letter and insures it royal care. It travels first-class; the clerks pass it rapidly on its way; on reaching its destination all schedules are disregarded; it is honored by being sent by a special messenger. This service was begun In 1SSG; in 1S93 the number of these stamps issued was over 5,000,000. New York city delivered the greatest number of these letters about C93.000. Boston came next, with 275,000. The average time, throughout the nation, for delivery from postofTlca to addressee was seventeen minutes-
