To us It seems a curious whim on the part of our ancestors of the eighteenth century that in their marriage an nouncements they should so often choose and with such seeming compla cency to enlighten the world with re gard to the amount of fortune received with the brides. Here are two cases in point: "Mr. James Coutts of Jeffry's Sq., merchant, to Miss Peagrum of Knightsbridge, £30,000." "W. Smith, gentleman, of the 2d Troop of Horse Guards, to Mrs. Ann Gardiner, a maid en lady, aged, 'tis said, near 70, with a fortune of £20,000." —Chambers' Jour nal. Webster's Tiresome Habit. Senator Hoar in his "Reminiscences" says that Daniel Webster had a tire some habit in his public speeches of groping after the most suitable word after this fashion: "Why is it, Mr. Chairman, that there has gathered, congregated; this great number of in habitants, dwellers, here; that these roads, avenues, routes of travel, high ways, converge, meet, come together here?" When tlie speech was printed all the synonyms but the best one would bo left out. The Streets of Amsterdam. Amsterdam, in Holland, a <yty of ten miles in <ir<u inference, is mostly built on piles driven into the sandy subsoil, but the flowing of the tide and the debris of the Ainstel river have made ninety islands, and the city has more canals than streets. The watery ways are traversed by over .'SOO bridges, so that Amsterdam has earned the desig nation of the Venice of the North. Tlie Wo inn n Must Siieuk. Mr. Skrap—There's Just this about it. It is impossible for us to live together and not quarrel. Mrs. Skrap—There is no possibility of our quarreling if neither of us speaks.

I CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 1904. Tbc Drtti of Hindoo Wflmta. There has been no change In Indian women's dresH for 4,000 years. All wear the surl, a single piece of stuff a yard and a quarter wide, ten, twenty, thirty yards long. It is arranged on the body, and forms skirt, garment, veil, first plaited with the hand in ac cordion folds In front, wound round and round, and the richest end, if em broidered or woven with gold. Anally brought over the head. It inay be of simple cotton cloth; of silk, plain in de sign, woven with golden threads; solid with embroidery, strung with pearls, or of kincob, the royal cloth of gold. Some cost thousands of rupees. No pin, hook, button or string, the gar ment is formed on the architecture of the body, and takes its expression and nobility from its perfect harmony with the lines of the human form. And Indian women, whether of high or low class, have jewels everywhere; have sleeping gems and day gems, as we have day and night shirts.—Every body's. The Oak. England won her supremacy on the seas with her ships of British oak, a wood that is renowned for strength and durability. When the Spanish ar mada set sail for England its com mander had express orders from the king of Spain to burn or otherwise de stroy every oak in the forest of Dean, then the great source of shipbuilding supplies. But, as blunt old Drake prophesied, Philip's beard was singed instead. Admiral Nelson declared that without "heart of oak" the British navy and empire would soon come to an end. The oak Is beautiful at all seasons. From the time it opens its delicate green buds, close pressed in their resin ous overcoat, and emerging flame tip ped with bronze or crimson, until they come again an acorn bearing spray is most artistic, and the ruddy hue of the tree in autumn combines well in na ture's color scheme. One Sided Sport. A London paper tells a story of a certain shortsighted sportsman. He was asked one morning by a fellow so journer in a small hotel on the shores of Loch Carron what sport he had had. "Just seen a seal," he said. "Shot at it three times and missed It each time." At dinner, an hour later, he sat next to a man with a bandage round his head. "Accident?" he Inquired. "Accident!" was the indignant response. "Attempt ed murder, you mean. I was having a bath about an hour ago when some lunatic fired at me three times from the shore and shot part of my ear off." "Wonder who it could have been!" murmured the sportsman, and then he changed the conversation. A Story of Storey. An English paper tells a little anec dote of the distinguished painter Sto rey in his capacity of teacher of per spective at the lioyal academy: On one occasion Mr. Storey accepted an invita tion to dine with the wealthy—and Philistine—father of one of his pupils. Over the undeniable port the by no moans doting parent inquired how his son was getting on, and, although the kindliest of men, Mr. Storey could not bring himself to say much that was favorable. "Humph!" grunted the man of money. "Well, I hope he will turn out an artist, for I am quite sure he's not fit to be anything else." Preaenta In Japan, The foreigner should beware of mak ing presents to any Japanese girl un less he is bent upon matrimony. To present her with any sort of a gift, even though it be only a posy, will be regarded as a proposal of marriage, and to accept the present, though not a word of love or matrimony be pass ed, is a sign that she accepts you. Gal lant Americans have got into serious trouble and found it necessary to leave the country at night to escape a bind ing engagement which they thought lessly incurred by giving to a maiden some trifle. To Miike a Seldlttz Powder. To make a seidlitz powder mix to gether two drams of rochelle salts and two scruples of bicarbonate of soda; put these into a blue paper and put thirty-five grains of tartaric acid into n white paper. To use put each into different glasses and quarter fill with water, then pour both together and drink at once while in a state of ef fervescence. To Make lied Ink. lied ink is easily, made by amateurs who follow this recipe: Get a one ounce bottle and see that it is perfectly clean and dry. Place in it one teaspoonful of aqua ammonia, gum arabic the size of two peas, and add six grains of car mine. Fill up the bottle with c!#ar soft water, and after standing a lltrte while it will be fit for use. An Obstinate Family. Cholmondley—l thought you intend ed to marry Miss Wealthington? Dol mondley—l thought so, too; but her family objected. Cholmondley—What did Miss Wealthington say? Doimond ley—Oh, she's one o* the family, you know. 'l'lll I! UN He linen'. His Wife—Why don't you goto the doctor and find out juyt what you ought to eat and what you ought to avoid? Dyspeptic—Oh, I know all that now! I ought to eat everything I don't like and avoid everything I do. JriMt the Kereme, Stranger (to highlander in full uni form)— Sandy, are you cold with the kilt? Sandy—Na, mon, but I'm nigh kilt wi' the cauld. Mind is the beginning of civilization, but the ends and fruitage thereof are of the heart. AUDITORS' REPORT OF SHIPPEN TOWNSHIP FOR YEAR 1903. H. J.
