Work Method of Mannfnetnrc.
Dantown Is olahty-flvo miles from New
York, nnd is rooched by tbo Now York,
Now Haven and Hartford railroad, via
Stamford nnd Now Canaan, A colony of
basket makers thcro inhabit a district bo
gmnlnfr about four miles north of New
Canaan, running iu length about eight
miles, and in width nbont thrco mlloa.
In this bailiwick is lncludou another set
tlement called Jumptcwn, but tho wholo
district Is known as Dantowu. Tho sot-
tlemcut dcrivos Us namo from tho first
settlers, whoso namo was Don, and nlnoty
nlno hundredths of tho pooplo who llva
thoro now oro also Dans.
Wo drove over to Dontown to soo if
thoy wero really tho uncouth poopla they
woro crodltod with being. Thojroada aro
narrow and full of rocks: In fact, tho
wholo country Is nothing but rocks and
an almost lmtxmctinblo lunclo. Tho
homes of tho oaskot makers nro old,
tumblo down, romshocklo affairs, un-
pautea, built or oalc shingles, ono-ualf
of them fallon off, and tho balance in n
stato of lrretriovablo decay, fences falling
down, gates with no hlngos, tho wholo
settlement looking as If a cyclono had
strucK it away bacit m rovoiutlonary
war times, and not a stroko of repairs
boon put to it sinco.
YIKW Of AS INTEHIOIl.
For fumltnro of theso houses thero is
nothing but tho plainest straight backed
chairs, with basket woven Beats, somo of
thorn hondod down from great-grand-
lathers time, and somo or lato domcstlo
manufacture, but all presenting tho samo
stylo and discomfort. Tho old fashioned
fireplaces aro built of wood and plastered
lnsfdo nnd out. Tho Dontowncrs nro not
hfeU livers. They eat becauso it sustains
llfo. They do not sit long at tablo, and
thy dlsponso with all of tho convention-
autlos of tablo etiquette Tlio writer sat
down to dine, or, as tho host oxprcsscd it,
In and help yorsolf," which ho did. Tho
bill of faro was pork and beans, potatoes,
bread and molasses, and applo sauoo, tho
young girl of tho family remarking: "Say,
moor, et it's dark t'night I'll git nuthcr
bag o tu em tnero apples. Whereupon
moor replied: "Dry up yor yawp."
tho peopio uvo irngaiiy, becauso tnoy
aro compelled. A basket maker must
work early' and laid' to mako $5 n week,
and as thero are generally a dozen "young
mis about tlio houao, this does not go
far, though" tho "young "uns" wero all In
a scmi-stato of nudity.
Yet those pooplo oro as content with
their lot as a North Carolina clay cater.
Thoro is always a markot for their baskots,
and thoy monago to Bqucozo along on tho
commonest food so that thoy can mdulgo
In tobacco and get tho littlo brown Jug
filled. Tho latter is of moro absoluto
necessity to tho majority of tho Dantown
ers than the sock of flour or tho flitch of
bacon. Years ago they wore famous for
their store of Jncdlord rum, but it is never
seen now. In its placo is ryo whisky, and
not tho best, either, and now that New
Canaan Is a prohibition town, they aro
sometimes put to desperate straits for tho
wherewithal to wot thoir-whlstles.
THE BASKET ItAKElt AT WOUK.
Thero aro no organized workshops, and
tho business of sotting up baskots is car
lied on in tho kitchen, dining room and
parlor, which Is gonorally all In ono room.
Thoy aro very particular about their tim
ber. Thoy uso hickory, whito and black
ash and black oak. They uso tho first cut
of the log and no other. Tho bark Is
peelod oflT and -tho log, which is never
over ten Inches through, Is spilt into soo
tlons, making It easier to handle. Thoy
toko a section and pound tt over a log or
rock until it silvers. It Is then segregated
by peeling the slivors oil, which aro used
for what Is called ' 'fliling" for the baakets.
Tho "standards" aro pooled much thicker,
and havo tho appoaranco of a llour barrel
hoop. Thoy aro tiod la bundles, and, If
not used when green, aro soakod in water
over night, which makes them pliablo and
easy to weavo. If they do not cut this
wood thomsolvcs thoy aro compelled to
pay $10 a cord for it; but It Is said that a
great many cut thoir own wood and aro
not particular whoso land thoy cut It
from. Times havo changed with tho bas
ket makers, and competition has cheap
ened their product from $13 a dozon
twenty yoars ago to $3.50 a dozon now.
And then wood was only ?8 a cord.
Tho modo of baskot' making is simplo.
First tho thick sticks aro cut to tho re
quired length and laid on tho ground,
looking liko a glgantlo starfish. At tho
point of contact thoy aro fastoncd, and
then conies the work of weaving tho light
or sldo strips in and out. une strip is
woven In soveral timos around tho baskot
before it gives out, whon another ono Is
lapped on. Aa tho weaving continues tho
standards aro raised and bent or "shaped"
until it has ronched tho required height.
Then two thicker strips, fiat on ono side,
'rounded with a draw shavo on the other,
aro clapped on, Tho standards, which
project abovo this band, aro twisted
around it and seourcly fastened. Tho
handles aro put on before tho band is.
Thoso aro modo of a thick strip trimmed
down smooth, with a notch cut in thorn,
which abuts against tho band. Then tho
basket Is turned upstdo down, and an
other star shaped sot of strip3 is pushed
up through tho woof of tho baskot. This
is dona so that tho basket con sit on its
own bottom. A basket maker has to
hustlo to mako two dozen baskots In a
wook. Thoy mako all kinds tho corn,
tho markot and tho oyster basket, but tho
latter takes precodenco.ovcr tbo two for
mer, as tho demand along the sound is
novor filled. Dantown (NT Y.) Cor. Now

Amazons to the Front.
Tho'insoloneo and inefficiency of men
servants in England havo long been so
vividly realized by all heads of house
holds, that any step which shall bo on
advanco in tho diroetlon of getting rid of
them ought to bo balled with rapturo by
all chatelaines and housekeepers. Many
ladles havo given them up altogether, ana
content themselves with femaio servants,
selecting a peculiarly stalwart spoclmon
of tho genus amazon to fulfil tho duties
of butler. Sho is, moreover, In many
cases, dressed in a llvory coat and waist,
coat, which look very smart, although
perhaps rather suggestive ot tho stage.
Quito recently, afau afternoon party
glvon in lndon, tho guests wero cnttroly
served by a bovy of ramalo servants, all
dressed allko in black gowns, whito waist
coats, and whito caps trimmed with black
ribbons, Tho effect was, on tho wholo,
very pleasing, and tho watting was much
moro efficiently and noatly douo than If it
bad been intrusted to a cohort of waiters.

"The uso of ico water in this country U

Brazil it is but littlo usod. It was
thought that a factory for producing arti
ficial Ico would bo very profitablo thero,
whero tho temperature is very high. An

would not touch, ico water. Then, to
tetnpt their palates by creating an appo

placed freo tanks of ico water upon tho
street corners of tho cities. It was a
novel plan, and the fruits of tho Invest

It is said to bo pleasant to wear, and to

I havo boon told, even In cultivated, In
telloctual circles, that a young woman
had hotter bo in tha kitchen or laundry
than In tho laboratory or class room of a
college "Women should be trained,"
such porsons say, "to bo wives and
mothors." Tho finger of scorn has boon
lightly pointed at the mentally cultivated
mothers and daughters who aro unable to
cook and scrub, who cannot mako a mlnco
plo or a plum pudding. Such porsons for
got with surprising facility all tho cases
of women who neglect tho kitchen to in

think too much of possiblo matrimonial

or by giving gronnd for tho suspicion that

Fermented Juice of the Grape.
Wlno is tbo fermonted juico of tho
crape, and is distinguished from other
fermented and olcohollo liquors by con
taining bl-tartrato of potash, a constitu
ent of the grapo. Blackberries, currants,
and other berries, by fermentation, will
yield a wlno, but tho nauo of tho berries
from which obtainod is always appendod
to tho vinous product. When tne-tenn
wine olono is usod tho fermonted juico of
tho crrapo is signified, and anything elso
Is a misnomer. Tho numerous varieties
of wine are occasioned by dliTerenco of
soil, climate, season, and by the kind,
quality and condition of tho grapes as to
ripeness, tho modo of fermentation, and
by the manner and temperature at which
the wlno is preserved, and by its age.
The strong wines, Buch as sherry, port
and Madeira, are mado from grapes
that aro thoroughly ripened, and which,
on account of containing a large amount
of sugar, yield, when fermented, a greater
amount of alcohol, which will rango' be
tween 18 and 25 per cent. Claret contains
about 12 per cent, and champagne about
10. Sweet wines, liko tokay, are made
from grapcB so ripe that ther are almost
sbrlvelod up to raisins, and therefore con
tain much sugar, and tho fermentation Is
arrested bo fore nil tho sugar is converted
into alcohol, which will hardly reach 10
f or cent. Champagne is bottled before
ho fermentation has ceased, and henco
some of tho carbonic acid resulting from
tho fermentation is retained in tho wine,
to be given oft only when tho bottle is
opened. It is, perhaps, not too much to
say that most wines exported from Euro
pean wlno countries are adulterated.

To Shampoo One's Own natr.
Half tho pleasure of having tho hair
washed and groomed is to havo some one
do it who knows how. In England, in
tho large stores, thero Is a department of
hair dressing whore an accomplished bar
ber, with every convenience for shower
ing and drying, will wash the hair of
ladles for one shilling. In this country a
good shampoo cost from fifty cents to (1
which is a largo sum for so simple an
operation.
After combing tho snarls from tho hatry
brald it loosely and bind tho ond with a
small elastlo band. Draw tepid water In
a basin and first wash tho scalp thor
oughly with eastllo soapi then lot tha
braid fall In tho water, soap it and wash
as if clothes. Aftorward thoroughly rinso
and wring tho braid in a towol. Wlpo
tho hood dry, undo tho braid and brush
out, beginning nt tho lower end, when it
will not tanglo. Lot tho hair looso in tho
sun and air and it will dry In loss than
half on hour. A woman's hair should bo
washed at least monthly if kept fino and
healthy. New York Evening Sun.
Fads of tho Seashore.
Ono of tho queer fads of tho seashore is
a sldowalk luncheon. All along tho walks
aro booths whoro Vienna sausages aro
cooked and handed to you on a clam sheli
a sausago on one sheli and a baked po
tato on the other. You aro supposed to
sit on tho sand and cat them without salt
and lick your chops for moro. SlllyJ
Well, this is tho place for silly things.
Another fad Is crabbing. A party num
bering from six to a dozon go out in tha
marsh, channels and bait for crabs with a
picco of boef tied to a line. The crab Is
just idiot enough to hang on until lifted
Into tho boat.
And yet another is tho moonlight fad
promenading the beach to listen to tha
sighing of the clams. Yes, clams sigh.
That's ono of their duties on a moonlight
night. Some folks can't hear it, but a
pair of lovers, with his arm around her
waist and walking at a slow gait, can
catch every sigh, that a clam signs. Cor.

Hirers IThlcli Fish Desert.
Close observers havo ascertained that
rivers running throilgh trdoless tracts of
country oro' nearly, if not aultoi d"itttuto
of fish, and that fish will desert a stream
from which timber has 'been remofod,
although thoy previously swarmcd'thero
in. In tho propagation of fishi it id not
enough to place tho' fry in water( they
must bo provided with food, and tho best
means to do this Is to preserve ,tbo bor
der trees and insure a steady supply bf
water and food by preserving the forests
whenco tho supply of food is derived.- If
new forests are cultivated on tha barren
ranges, many a stream now nearly empty
during the dry seasons will be refilled
with fish and -food for tha many. Tha

A THRIFTY FEOFLE.
MILLIONS OF MONEY LAID BY FOR A
RAINY DAY.
The Saving Man's Dollar, nnd How lie
Houses It In Hoston llanks Watching
the Crowd on a Muny Day Deposits and
Depositors.
At tho beginning of tho year of grace
1688 thoro wore fifteen savings banks in
Boston, having in cliargo about 00,000,.
000 bolonging to nearly 825,000 depositors.
Since tbo first of tbo year two moro sav
ings banks havo been established In tho
city, so that theso figures aro under
rather than over tho facts nt tho present
moment. It may truly bo said that in no
city In tho country, or, for that matter,
iu tbo world, aro savings banks moro
conservatively, honorably and safely con
ducted than In Boston. Thoso local banks
have, as a rnlo, had public confidence, and
thoir reputation lesvos nothing to bo de
sired. An officer In ono of tho Bavlngs
banks Informs tha writer that tho major
portion of tha depositors aro womon.
When askod why this is so ho gavo It as
his opinion that the women aro not so
muck given to making "investments" as
tho men. Thoy preferlo put their monoy
in a reputable institution whoro thoy
know it will bo "safo," and whero it will
draw a certain interest.
Post yourself in a convenient corner at
ono of the loading savings banks on a
busy day and watch tho crowd. As an
opportunity to study humanity this could
hardly bo excelled. At the noon hour tho
depositors come by dozens, somo to lcavo
money and some to tako It. Thoso who
lcavo tho monoy Becm to havo tho best of
it, if ono may judgo by their faces. A
man always draws on bis deposit with an
air of regret, or, at any roto, therb aro
few cases in which this will not hold
true At tho head of tho lino thcro is a
little old woman who is not at all at bor
caso. Tho lino behind presses upon her,
and sho docs not relish, being hurried,
although it is evident that sho will bo
nothing loath to leave the place onco sho
has completed her transaction. Sho has
como, it appears, with an order from her
son, who has on account here and who is
at home ill, and sho wants $10. But tho
order is not properly filled up, and tho
toller tries to explain the error and inform
her with as much courtesy and pains as
time will permit, that she must go homo
and havo tlio mistake rectified boloro she
can havo tho money. This sho does not
understand, and you can plainly seo that
sho entertains her "suspicions" of tbo
bank. "It's her Jim's money, an' she's a
right to it whon ho tells her to como and
f et it," and she half threatens to "havo
ho law on the place" if tho cashier will
not stand and deliver.
Time is being wasted, and tho crowd
becomes impatient, and, finally, somo ono
In the lino assures tho old lady that tho
matter will be "all right" if sho will
follow tho advice of tho coshlor. So oft
sho goes, mumbling. Then comes a man
of about 80 or 85, looking quite prosper
ous, and holding a bank book In which a
number of bills aro snugly reposing.
"You can't deposit any moro money.

ceiver. "No moro money I Why, what do you

til, with interest, it accumulates to tho
extent of $1,000. After that time, ol-'
thougu you may lot tho monoy remain
cere, it wui a raw no more interest.
"Queer business, that," exclaims tha
prosperous man, who thereupon takes
himself off. '
This may seem "queor business" to tho
person who knows nothing of savings
banks, yet it may bo explained by tlio
fact that sayings banks wero not intended
for well to do people, but for folk of hum
bio moans. Of course, if you oro fortu
nate enough to havo $1,000 in ono bank,
you can go to another bank and open on
account, but if tho officials havo any rea
son to suspect tliat, you nro a man of
means thoy may question you very close
ly, and, if they are not batisllod with your
replies, they are at liberty to reject your
financial ofloring altogether.
Here comes a mother asking if sho will
bo permitted to deposit monoy in her
child's namo, although tho child is only
two or three months old. Sho finds that
sho can do so, and sho is dcllghtod.
Thero aro a groat many calls at the sav
ings banks for purposes of this sort. Pa
rents, also, frequently deposit small sums
on the anniversaries of their children's
birth, and tboy allow tho money to re
main in tho bank and accumulate until
the children "como of ago." Executors
often uso theso banks to deposit the
funds of an estate during tho two years
tho law allows them for settling up af
fairs. Religious and charitable organiza
tions are exempt from tho $1,000 restric
tion. Tho average rato ot interest paid
by tho Massachusetts savings banks last
year was 4.08 per cent.
Two lines of peoplo como streaming into

ITALIAN ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.
First Inrented by Tlons Sinters In a
'Famous Factory Handwork.
Artificial flowers wore first invented by
pious nuns. In tho Italian convents tha
altars and shrines of saints wore, up to
tho end of tho Eighteenth Century, decor
ated with artificial flowers, laboriously
put together of paper parchment and
other Btlft materials. Since then tho
"Italian flowers," whtcli aro mado In
Vouotlan factories of tho Imperfect co
coons of silk worms, havo bocomo famous
for thoir daintiness, which makes them
particularly Bultablo for toilet decora
tions. Besides theso Bilk flowers othor
artificial flowers aro mado in Venico,
whenco nearly all Italy is supplied, nnd
whenco wholo wngon loads oro exported
to other couutrlcs.

visitor to Venico taken his early cup of
chocolato at Florlan's, near tbo Marcus

"famous Italian flowors." This factory
is situated In ono of tho e-rav old houses
of tbo Frezzaria, and several hundred
f lrls aro occuplod in It. In tho warehouse
ho most wondorful reproductions of
natural flowors aro oxhibltod in glass
coses, and It seems in raanv cases as if
not only tho richest and most brilliant
colors, out tno very scent or tho flowers,

tbo artificial flowers are stooped in tho

it represents. Any ono wishing to tako

In tho upper stories of tho houso tho
girls sit at their work, constructing, with

a machino for cutting out tho leaves and

hyacinths, lilies of tho valley, and other

regularities of manual work ore preferred
