OPTICAL ILLUSIONS. Striking Examples That May Be Ob served In Daily Life. Doubtless every one has observed Vhile traveling by train that the trees or houses in the distance appear to be speeding along in the same direction us the train, while the nearer objects are fast receding. Many, too, have obnrvi'd that the top of a level wall litiilt ou a steep incline appears to lope upward in a coutrary direction to the hill itself at nearly the same augie to the apparent level, and some have curiously regarded the ghostlike gliding ami vanishing of dark shadows while passing a double row of fencing, but the following are not so commonly remarked: One might stand for several minutes watching the revolutions of the cups of an anemometer for measuring the velocity of the wind anil still be puzzled as to the real way they are turning round. (Jaze up at them when there is au uncertain breeze blowing. They revolve rapidly, and you are perhaps perplexed as to their direction. As the wind subsides you would expect to find it easier to tell the direction by the slower revolution; but, its a matter of fact, the diflieulty is iucreased. .With the varying speed yonr first impression is that such and such is the direction. A moment later you reverse that idea, and the longer you gaze the more it seems as if they are spinning rouud erratically in every possible direction, whereas, of course, they can ouly turn one way. Standing immediately beneath a high wall of a building the longer the wall the bet. cr for practical demonstration many would aver on looking upward that It was not exactly perpendicular, but Inclined toward them in a threatening manner. This illusion is the effect of perspective and would be seen to better advantage If you stood between two such walls which faced each other at short distance. NewYork Telegram. THE GONDOLA. Its Gliding and Guiding Through Venice's Intricate Canals. The gondola Is so perfectly adapted to its purpose that It is like a sentient thing in the gondolier's coutrol. It obeys the slightest impulse of the oar. Through the narrow and intricate lanes of Venice, with the sharp and baffling turns, it glides with unfailing accuracy. The boatmen have about ten different calls by which they announce their approach, as they come to a corner, the turn they will take in a crowd, their way to right and left and all that. And these calls, half soug, half cry, echo day and night, and yet so musical are they that they seem to be merely a part of the brooding silence of Venice. Indeed the wonder of Venice is howall things the city and the sea. the boats and the people, the songs and the sky combine to make one perfect whole, caressing and Idle as one of Petrarch's sonnets, which one 1 care not. Here even death is not merely somber. It is friendly and familiar as well. I saw them put old Paolo o bed for the hist time. He had been in his prime a stout gondolier of the traghetto of Santa Sofia, near the Rialto. but in old age was a ragged "hooker" of the gray In his ijuartor. however, he was a respected man. Indeed to be old or to be a ehild is among the gondoliers a title to tenderness and respect. And so when a good man dies In the poorer quarters the neighbors combine and hire a brass band to celebrate his virtues. Vance Thompson tn Outing Magazine.

What on Earth Does He Want With Eighteen of Them? The great fundamental difference between the modern woman and the modern man is this that whereas the raiment of the modern woman has no pockets at all the raiment of the modern man has nothing else. Indeed, a man may be defined as an animal with a passion for pockets. If you were asked to say offhand how many pockets you possess at a given moment, you would be stumped. It would be necessary to make out an Inventory. In the first place, there are at least fiTe in your overcoat. There are at least five more in your lounge jacket, four in your waistcoat and four in your trousers. You have therefore at least eighteen pockets. Now, it is absurd to say that any man needs eighteen pockets. Why, it Is almost a set of pigeonholes! They ought to be numbered or lettered. Often a man loses his railway ticket, and after paying excess fare he finds it hidden in one of his dozen and a half pockets. It takes some time to search carefully in eighteen little bags. Men carry a great deal of rubbish in their pockets. There are few of us who do not suffer from accumulations of old letters, paid and unpaid bills, bus and tram tickets, theater vouchers and miscellaneous odds and ends. We change our flotsam and jetsam from one suit of clothes to another, for we are not happy w ithout unnecessary fragments of paper. 1 once knew- a man who carried an amazing assortment of useless things in his pockets. He alwiivs had a lump of chalk, a piece of siring, a small ivory inch rule, a penknife, a pencil and a pair of compasses. In his poeketbook he carried stamps, sticking plaster, telegraph forms and pins. Another man I know always carries half a dozen silver cigar cases shaped like torpedoes with one cigar in each. Some men have a mania for carrying enormous bunches ot keys. They do not use more than two of them every day. but they are not happy unless they have a key for everything they have ever owned. When they lose their keys, it is a tragedy. I sometimes wonder why the chancellor of the exchequer does not impose a pocket tax. It would bring in enough revenue to pay for oid ago pensions. It would Ik? much more profitable than the aucient window tax, for men could live without windows,; but they could not possibly exist with- , out pockets. j A. poeUe'less mnn would be misora-' b'e. Try to imagine yourself in clothes wirhotit pockets. The imagination bog. I gles at the thought. A coat without pockets would be a monstrosity, before : which a mau would recoil iu terror. i I suspect that the tailor is the hrs! ' cause of poeketitis. He it Is who! forces us to submit to the plr.gue of pockets. I appeal to my fellow men: to revolt against this sartorial tyr.in 1 ny. Let us establish a pocket limit.! Fourteen pockets ought to be enough 1 for any sane man. James Douglas la I London U. JL. P. j

VENEERING. It Is Produced by Two Methods, Sawing and Slicing. "There are two kinds of veneering Fa wed and sliced -hut it takes an expert to tell the difference," says a manufacturer. "The process of manufacture is simple and interesting. The logs, delivered at the factory in the rough, about thirteen feet in length, are first cooked in hot water vats to make them soft and workable. "It does not matter how green they are: After being thoroughly cooked they are placed on machines designed for the purpose and either sliced by a powerful knife the length of the Iok or cut by a circular saw into slabs about one-twentieth of an inch thick. "These slabs are the full length of the log and when lirst cut are so pliable that they can be Pent double without breaking. The uniform thickness or thinness of the slabs is (reserved by the action of the machinery and Iocs not vary so much as a hair's breadth in the entire length of the slab. "After the slabs are sliced or sawed they are seasoned by steaming. This requires only about twenty-four hours, and then they are ready for the market. Some of the huge onk logs that come to the factory show by the rings in them that the trees were from 2."0 to -J0n years old." Washington Herald. A Gorgeous Fish. One of the most gorgeous fishes in the world is found, strangely enough, not in tropical waters, but off the coasts of England, where the waters are gray and deep and cold. It is the opah. or kingtish. This species reaches a weight of from thirty to a hundred pounds and is shaped a litLe like the great suntish of the Atlantic ocean iu American waters. The lish has immense eyes, of which the iris is a bright scarlet. The gill covers are green and cold, and the rest of the tish is flashing red and green, over which there play sheens of purple and gold. Again over this sheen there is another still more transparent film of silver, which plays in large, white spots over the rest of the bright colors. The tins, which are large and sword shaped, are a vivid red. London and Paris. evide;.n-e to show that Lona considerable, town before There I don was the Itoinan invasion.
