A cupola of tfr kind consists of from twenty four to thirty separate piece, and is prod iced over a wooden model by past ing hage rolls of suitable paper one over the other. Every separate piece runs from the base to the top of the hemispherical roof of the cupola, and thus forms a vault-like strip which is broad at the bottom and narrow at the top. For the production of these sepa rate pttrts of the cupola roll paper of very good quality is used, which is first cut into the reiaiite length snd breadth, then motsteoed and (tretched over the wooden modeL Upon the Crst strip is pasted another, also moist ened; over this a third, and so oo nntil the necessary thickness is reached. The moistened strips of paper adhere firmly to each other and retain their concave shape, and after being dried constitute hard, resisting pieces, which are made weatherproof by oiling, pol ishing with hot irons, asphalting and varnishing, and are then put together in the shape of a round cupola. set ESTUILISHKD 1827.

"I goe that father-in-law of mine will do," smiled a young married man of PStrty HilL " He came down to spend a week or so with us. Having much the same independence of character that he manifested throughout my courtship, the old gentleman brought his own supply of cigars along, f.. be is an inveterate smoker. I kept mine in an open box on the library table. They are of a favorite brand, sad I pride myself oo being a pretty good jadg- of the obnoxious narcotic "Within two days I detected a de pression in the quality of my cigars. They did not snAe so freel r, the rich flavor of Havana was wanting and the odor was that of burning garden truck. I couldn't aeeouat for it and I woul ia't stand it. I went to the man of horn I buy and made all kinds of a kick. He bet me a new hat that the cigars he had sold me were as good as I had ever bought of that brand and I brought down w hat was left, j ust to show that I knew a &w things myself and iockiently to pet an order for a new hah He soon convinced me that there were two kinds of cigars in the box, some that he had sold me and some that seemed to have aa Onio wrapper on a Michigan tiller. Then I went into, the business of unraveling the mystery. 1 1 was soon dne. "Every time the old gentleman wan ted to smoke be took one of cay C nest and substituted oite of his. I said nothing and really enjoyed his good taste. I was called away f r a week and when I returned the box was empty. He had smoked everything in sight. He said nothing and when I of fered him a choice weed from my pocket he tersely inlormed me that he always bought Lis own cigars." Of unwittingly ludkTVis or humor ous signs there are plenty. A tiuraiith near Exeter, England, has a sign w hich reaL, "i iart measures of all shap" and sizes 4d here." At a market town ia IJailaalihire the fUoing placard was affixed to the shatters cf a watchmaker who had decani pi. Irv ing his credi;ors mourning: "Wound up and the main spring broke." Equal ly apposite was one in Titomaston, t.ra. (n oue of the principal streets the same rwoi was occupied by a physician and a shoemaker, the disciple of rale in front while l.e of St. Crispin's trade worked in the rear. Over the doer hung the sign, "We repair both sole and body." Oa the windows of a Loa d.a cr lice-room there appeared the notice: "This ofTe-roca removed upstairs Lilt rtyaiivZ. The proprietor of the place was not aa Irishman, though the framer of the notice over the entrance to a French baying ground 'Only the dead who live in this pariah are buried here," must have beea. One may see in the windows of a confect ioner in Fourth Avenue, New York, "lies Open All Nibf." A Bowery placard reads, Home-Made Dining Rooms, Family Oysters;" whileaWe-t Broadway restura sells "Hoaie made Pies, Pastry, and Oysters," and still another caterer, ou East Cfxtd way, retail "Fresh Salt Oysters and Larger Beer." "&ts Polished Inside" is s frequent sign ia New York, and on Atlanta Avenue, Brooklyn, there is a 'Stationery Library;"' the Litter is really a circulating library, and the word, '-StAlionery'" adorns one win-low, and "Library" the other.

It rained on Joly I , and U has rained every day since. No woniler those who rememb er the old tradition are concerned about the thirty days to eome. We are as sured by those w no study the weather records that there is nothing in this tradition, and yet it has persisted a thousand years, in spite of science, and each July's rains refresh it. The actual legend of the translation of St. S within is probably true. He was bishop cf Winchester, ia the ninth century, and by his own direction he was buried in the churchyard where men could walk over him and the rain fall on his grave. A century later if was proposed to remove his remains to a costly shrine within the cathedraL Oa the appointed day it rained, and the ceremony was postponed; the next day it rained, and the next, and so a for forty days, as though to protect the good saint in his humble grave. The enshrinement of the relics was, nevertheless, accomplished eventually, and is commemorated on July 1- and from that day to this it has been a popular saying that if it rain on St. Swithin's Day it will rain on each of the thirty-nine days following. This year it has made a good start. Tie Conductor7! Keen Sexues- " Railroad conductor train them selves up to a point," said a traveling man. "The other night I was on Con ductor StovalTs train, on the Southern, going op to Washington. We were somewhere in the neighborhood of Charlotte, N. C, I knew, but to be ex act I asked Captain Stovail, who was sitting just behind me, where we were? He waited about half a minute and replied: "We are about nineteen miles from Charlotte." "Haw can you teU?" I asked him. "Easy enough," he replied. "Jast (eel the motion of the train, and I can tell every curve oo the read nearly and I never look out to find where we are." "Just at that moment there was a Hast from the locomotive. "That's Stanley's crossing," said the cooductor. And that was from a man who has a ran of about 300 miles."

The bridegroom was Ernst Van Troe senburg, the head of the State Tele graphic Ipartment. The bride was I ihs) E. IL M M-smaa, a resident of Amsterlanx, Hollaad. All arrangements for the marriage had beea made by letter and cable, the time having been agreed upon, the dirTerence in Xln between Pretoria and Amsterdam being allowed for, and each party knew at a certain moment just exactly where the other was and what it was proposed to do. Ia the Hotel Kruger the bridegroom and his friends met- A wire from the cable had been run to the room and the ar rangement had been perfected whereby it was possible to secure direct connec tion with Amsterdam, and therefore it was almost as easy for the bride and bridegroom to speak to op another as if they had been in adjoining rooms with the dr open.
