Care in Buying Shoes. / " Great care should be taken In buy ing shoes," said a well-known dealer to & Rochester Post-Express reporter. •'Especially Is this so in the cheaper grades. There Is a large factory in Maine which turns out a compressed paste that Is extensively used In tha manufacture of shoes. Large Quanti ties of them are shipped to other coun tries, but some are sold even in Ihij city. Leather Is high and it is not t;i be expected that the feet can be cloth ed at slight expense. For tills reason, the compressed paste shoe lias gained In favor. People, when buying it, think they are getting the leather shoe, whereas It Is simply a bogus. This class of shoe wears very well if kept dry, but after a good soaking, or twice wearing in the rain, it will tear and is of little use thereafter. It is always better to pay a little more and get a good article upon which you can depend for service." Wants People to Eat More Bone. , One of the New York food reformers who would improve the diet of mankind has put out a proposition for the eating of bones, after they are ground line, lie holds that under the existing regi men the bones of the human frame are not properly supplied with the chemical elements needed to keep tliem in sound and vigorous condition, and that these elements can be most easily obtained by consuming the powdered bones of the animals ordinarily used for food, lie would sprinkle a steak or chop, for example, with bone dust, after the manner in which it is sprinkled with salt and pepper, and lie maintains that thus the tnsle of the meat may be great ly improved.

Its Organization and History—Men Who Have Made It Famous- How Meteorological Data. Are Obtained. THE. Weather Bureau of the United States is twenty-five years old. It was not, as is C 9 popularly supposed, the first to bo established. England instituted her system in 1861, and France in 1863. Tho United States is third on the list. Tho resolution giving birth to the Weather Bureau WAS introduced by General H. E. Paine, of Wiscon sin, in 1870, aud passed in the same session of Congress. It is interesting to note, now that the anuunl appro priations for this bureau reach nearly a million dollars, that tho first appro priation made for it was $15,000. Tho infant bureau born, there was much discussion as to where it should bo placed. Since its plans involved signalling, it was finally decided to make it a part of tho Signal Service, of which General Myer was then chief. This popular army oflieer possessed just tho energy and executive ability to put such a service in operation, and to "Old Probabilities," as lie soon carao to bo called, tho Weather Bureau owos tho firm foundation on which it was established. General Mvcr was especially wise in selecting clever as sistants. Ho succeeded in iuduciug Professor Cleveland Abbe to resign his charge of the Cincinnati Observatory to accept a position under him. Pro fessor Abbe's work in meteorology and the success of his own experiment in forecasting for tho Cincinnati BoariT of .Trado made him an enthusiast us lo the possibilities of the service, aud since that timo he has been a valued member of the corps. The Weather Bureau soon became tho greater part of the Signal Ser vice, and ihe whole country clamored for a change iu its government. "Why," it was demanded, "should a civil institution be controlled by a military officer?*' In response to this agitation, tho bureau was detached from the Signal Service and placed under the Agriculturil Department, much to tho satisfaction of tho farm ers, who had learned to depend upon its prognostications in their farming economy. In the begiuuing tho Weather Bu reau was regarded as a huge joke, and it required mnuy years of patient work to persuade the peoplo of it? usefulness. Old tea cap tains, versed in tho signs of the weather, placing small confidence iu the little flags dis played for their instruction, insisted on trusting to their own judgment. It was not until disregard of the storm warnings had resulted in serious losses, that the habit of obeying sig nals was established. It is impossible to estimate the value of the property saved annually through tho agency of the Weather Bureau. It Mould amount to many times the sum appropriated for its support, which last year was $854,223. Daring one great storm vessels to ihe value of $32,000,00;), not counting freight aud human lives, wore held in tho port of New York by a storm signal. To the cattlemen aud to farmers tho bureau renders immeasurable service in the treatment of their crops; cotton growers depend upon the forecasts of the Weather Bureau, and tho cran berry farmers watch for the predic tion of tho first frost, which, if unpre pared for, entirely ruins their crop. Cattlemen corral their herds iu obedi ence to the little storm Hag flying in j their neighborhood. The power to ! auticipato tho cold waves saves the railroads thousauds of dollars iu per ishable freight. Tho Weather Bureau occupies agree able quarters iu street, near George* j town. The house, which the Govern- ! ment bought for its use, was built by a Mr. Ferguson, an American, who I lived many yearn in Mexico, aud amassed a fortune there. Tho large j aud pretentious structure is built after tho Mexican style, and is not of pleas iug outlines. It is, however, admir ably arranged for the purpose for which it is used. The rooms aro large aud commodious, and an interior court, protected by a skylight, sup plies ventilation aud light. The Gov ernment paid SIOB,OOO for this build ing, which is about what it cost Mr. Ferguson. On the east side shops have been erected for tho printing and lithographing plauts. To the layman the forecasting room holds tho most interest. Tho oxpedi i tion with which the returns aro re ceived, and tho maps aud fore casts made up from them, is little short of marvelous. Twice a day, at 0 a. m. and at 0 p. m., tho observers from all over tho United States scud in tho results of their observations, expressed by a code. Telegrams Irom points ou tho same circuit come in together, and are dropped on the | way at all stations where tho informa | tion is needed. When they are re- I ceived at tho bureau they are taken | off by a typewriter, aud carried to tho i translator, who reads thorn iu proper language to tlio forecasters at work around him. These data are set up, as they fall from tho lips of the trans lator, by two printers at work at a small case in the room, while at an other case a man places tho symbols on the plato for the map. Tho ob servations all in, tho ollicer iu chargo makes his forecast for the next thirty live hour?, which is taken down by a stenographer, aud, with tho rost of the material, given to tho printer. So rapidly is the work douo that an hour after the last returns are received the finished map is ready for distri bution, tho base, of couxse, having been already prepared. Tho Weather Bureau issues between seven and eight thousand maps daily. Most; of these arc distributed gratuitously, among scientists, and Ihoso who will display them. There is a lixel price of one cent each for the.maps—ss a year for both the morning and evening maps. Tho library of tho Weather Bureau is tho largest meteorological library iu the world, not accepting that of tho British Museum, and contains about 20,000 volumes. There is iu the li brary an interesting collection of maps, samples from every country that has a weather service. Little Japan, with her'customary enterprise, issues these maps daily, which, in typ ographical make-up, equal any of the others. The first, weather map of tho United States appeared on January 1, 1871. Tho Weather Bureau of tho United States is, without doubt, the best in tho world, for these reasons: It has more money at its command than any of the other bureaus; its observers arc paid officials, and can be depended upon to mako prompt returns, while in Europe tho majority are voluntary observers, and the United States ex tends over a large area, and has more observiug stations than any other single country. There is, too, unu sual enthusiasm among the corps, which can bo explained by the fact that on their progress and accom plishment depends their advancement. —New York Tribune. Horseless Carriages. O. W. Chancellor, United States Consul at Havre, France, has made a report to the Secretary of State on tho subject of horseless carriages in which lie tolls of tho recent competition in Franco between carriages of various kinds of motors other than horses. Tho course prescribed was from Paris to Bordeaux, a distance of 358 miles and back, any vehicle which consumed more than 100 hours ou the road to bo disqualified. Prizes were offered, tho principal one amounting to SBOOO for four-seatccl carriages. The best time was made by a four seated and a two-seated vehicle, both propelled by gasoline. They covered the distance in twenty-four hours,three minutes, nuking about fifteen miles per hour. This record, Mr. Chancel lor says, is considered very creditable in view of tho necessity of climbing long lines of hills. These hills appear to have proved too much for tho electricity-propelled carriages, only one of which gob through. The electric carriages lost time by being compelled to stop fre quently to renew their dynamic charges, as did the steam propellers bv stopping for fuel and water, while the petroleum machines carried sufii cient fuel for a twenty-four run. Mr, Chancellor says tho ordinary feeder used for short distances in the petroleum carriages contains less than four quarts of oil and this is sufficient for a journey of twenty miles. Ho also mentions a petroleum cycle which entered this r.ioo au 1 held its own with the larger vehicles and says that tho timo will soon arrive when gasoline will come into general use for propelling bicycles, tricycles an I even four-wheelers, which will, ho thinks, relievo lady cyclists from tho neces sity of wearing short skirti. Altogether ho concludes that petro leum is destined to become the popu lar agent of traffic and conveyance without horses in the streets of great cities and ou smooth country roads. A Lucky AecilciP. As an examplo of how a remunera tive specialty in hardware forced it self on a receptive and appreciative Yankee, the following incident will bo of interest: Among manufacturers small cast ings are often put in revolving cylin ders with pickers or stars mv.le of cast iron, having usually six point?, tho extremes of which are about an inch apart. They are also familiar to toy deal ers and children as "jaokstonos." Tho pickers, togethor with small castings, are put into the tumbling barrels, so that any particles of sand adhering may.bo removed au l a better finish given tho castings. A largo aul well-known Now Eng land concern, which, in addition to tho other lines, manufactures scrow wrenches largely, formerly used a pe culiarly shaped malleable iron ferule, with irregular openings at the four sides and circular openings at tho two ends, weighing about an ounce. Some of those ferules chanced to be a part of the contenti of ou3 of tli3 tumbling barrels. When the barrel was opened tho at tendant noticed wh it to him seemed almost incredible, that the picker, with all its prongs, was inside tho ferule, the opening of which was com paratively small. The observant me chanic logically conclu lu l that as it had gotten in it coul I be gotten out again. The phenomenon wu brought to the attention of p irties who decide I to apply the i lea in a puzzle, aul tho result has been that the original man ufacturers are now making the two parts under contract; in ton lots, while the lirst order is said to have netted a profit to tho promoters of SI7OJ. This is known on tho streets in tli3 Trilby puzzle.—Chicago Tribune. The Barber's Do n h fccalo.l. Shaving by machinery has been rendered easy by tho construction of a machine reported to have been made by one Melohoir Farkas, a convict iu the penitentiary of the city o! Szegedin, iu Hungary. Farkm was put to labor iu the cabinet-making shop of tho prison, and, taking to his work with a will, ho soon displayed great iuventivo ingenuity. With his shaving machine be is said to have shaved all tho inmat.es of the prison, nearly 150 in number, within less than an hour's tinvo.—Chicago Times- Herald. HOUSEHOLD MATTERS. TO REMOVE PAINT FROM CLOTHING. You can remove paint from cloth ing better with chloroform than by other means, but benzine will also do. The chloroform is not inflammable, and may bo used at night; benzine should only bo employod during day light and away from any lire or open light, as it is extremely dangerous when exposed to flaiue. Soak the spot through the fabric aud rub gent ly ovor a pieeo of blotting paper or whito cloth, using a white fabric as tho rubber. Turpentine will tako paint out, but it is apt to spread around tho edge of tho stain, which chloroform does not do. Use plenty of tho liquid aud dry in tho sun.— Nov/ York World. DO YOU KNOW? That vasoliuo makes the best dress ing lor russet shoes? That spirits of turpentine is the thing with which to cleauso and brighten patent leather? That moderately strong fialt and water taken by the toaspoonful at in tervals is a euro for a catarrhal cold? That a level toaspoonful of boracic acid dissolved iu a pint of freshly boilod water and applied cool is tho best wash for inflamed soro eyes or granulated lids? That tho Hamo is an excellent garglo for inflamed sore throat? That soft newspaper is excellent to cleanse windows or any glassware? That cold tea cleanses paint better than soap and water, unless tho paint is white, when milk is bettor? That milk should be used to cleanso oilcloth? That a bit of raw ouion will remove fly specks from gilding without injury to tho gilding? That a rough flat-iron may be made smooth by rubbing it when warm over a teaspoon fill of table salt? That a pinch of salt put into starch will prevent its "sticking?" That the white spots 011 a varnished surface will disappear if a hot flat iron is held over them for a second? That hard soap is better than grease to quiet creaking doors or to make unwilling bureau drawers sub missive? GOOSEBERRY VINEGAR. This will bo found an excellent preparation, superior to much that is sold under the name of the best white wine vinegar. Gather tho gooseber ries when green, but well grown, and mash in a tub ; to two pecks of goose berries add six gullons of water, made lukewarm. Allow this to stand twen ty-four hours, strain through a sieve and add to tho above proportion twelve pounds coarse brown sugar. These proportions are for a nine-gal lon cask, and if not quite full add 11101*0 water. Lot tho mixture bo stirred from tho bottom of tho cask for four or five days to assist in molt ing the sugar; then paste a thin piece of cloth over the buughole, and set the cask in a warm place but not in the sun. The following spring it should bo drawn off into bottles, as the vine gar is fit for use twelve mouths after it is made. Made this year it can be used next spring. Many years' ex perience has proved that pickles made with this vinegar will keep, when bought vinegar will not preserve tho ingredients. Tho cost per galioii is merely nominal, especially to those who grow their own berries. The cask should be cleansed thoroughly before using and no barrel which has con tained fish should bo used. A lish barrel can never be used for any other purpose, as it is impossible to expel the taste and odor. If the barrel is musty, repeatedly scalding with hot strong lye will sweeten it. Wash well with clean water. —Now England Homestead, RECITES.

PURSE IN A HORSE'S HOOP, Strange I'luce Where a Woman Found Her Pocketbook. Mrs. Jacob Da rue, living a few miles north of Ganaudalgua, drove to town to do some trading, accompanied by her children. She tied her horse on Main street, leaving the children in the wagon. She made a number of purchases, but when she sought her pocket-book it could not be found. She hastened to the spot where the horse was hitched and made a thorough in vestigation of the ground, the carriage, and even the youngsters were given on overhauling, in comparison with which a custom-house inspection bill is a mild affair. Mrs. Darue was posi tive sho had placed the purse in her pocket just before leaving the carriage, and its complete disappearance was ample grounds for her anxious atti tude. The search, augmented by clerks and bystanders, was continued with fruitless result and finally abandoned. A village paper that day published a notice offering a reward for the return of a pocket-book containing a consid erable sum of money in bills. Mrs. Darue had placed the advertisement before returning. She had proceeded but a short distance when a slight lameness was visible in the horse she was driving. Instead of passing off, it increased, until Mrs. Darue became alarmed. She stopped and alighted from the carriage, and at her command the horse raised the apparently Injured member. Mrs. Darue's surprise can better be imagined than described when she found, firmly imbedded in the hollow of the horse's liouf. the missing purse. It was removed with out difficulty, and the family horse es tablished a gait from there home which indicated that the discovery was as pleasing to him as to the owner of the purse. Mrs. Darue believes that in alighting from the carriage the purse fell from her dress and under the horse's feet. The purse contained about sso.—Rochester Democrat. For Careless Travelers. Some men with valuable unused rail way tickets on their bauds sell them to scalpers, while others go to the rail way company that issued them and ob tain their value in money. Most men. however, do neither and accept the loss when the ticket is worth less than a dollar. Indeed, many men do not real ize, says the New York Sun, that rail way companies stand ready to redeem unused tickets even of small value, so that the companies must be richer by many thousands of dollars per year by reason of this neglect or ignorance. Every railway ticket bears the name of the general passenger agent of the road Issuing the same. It Is a simple .matter to inclose the ticket with a letter directed to the general passenger agent asking him to refund the money paid and explaining the reason why the tick et is left unused in the hands of the purchaser. It is courteous to inclose a stamped envelope in which the money may ho returned. When all these things have been done the company usually acknowledges the receipt of the ticket holder's communi cation and promptly investigates the matter. The investigation consists in (he proper identification of the ticket and n little bookkeeping to set till right in the account. Then the purchaser receives from the company a check for tile amount due, along with a letter re questing acknowledgment on the part of the recipient. That closes the trans cation, and there is no material loss on either side. IN Still In It. Let the new woman dress and talk as she will.
