The tree reachet a girth of from 10 to 15 feet and has a clear trunk of 70 to 80 feet to the firsl limb. The timber retains its fragrance to a great age. It is a wonderfully hard wood, durable and strong, and once seasoned does not split, crack, warp, shrink, or alter in shape. In certain portions of Burmah there is teak 2,00 C years old. It weighs 40 pounds per cubic foot. Teak ia used In India for construction, bridge-making, sleepers and furniture. It is exported to Europe chiefly for building railway carriages, shipbuilding or making decks and lower mosts and for the backing of arracr-plates cn ironclads. It is pe culiarly useful for the latter purpose, owing to the resinous matter which it contains and which acfcs as a preven tive of rust, the wood neither affecting the iron nor 'icing affected by it. Entangling Legislation on Patents. A measure of vast importance to tho manufacturing and commercial inter ests of the United States is the act ol congress authorizing the president to appoint a commission to revise and amend the laws concerning patents, trade marks, and trade and commer cial names. The law 3, as they exist, are inadequate to the conditions of tho day. They are too complex, contra dictory, and susceptible of great fra*d. The United States courts, in deciding causes on the laws concerning patents, have unintentionally done much to ren der "confusion worse confounded." It is to be hoped that the commission will stamp with its strongest disapproval the use of "Old Glory" and the Gen eva Cross for purely business advan tages. These symbols are almost sa cred. Novel Way to Clean Machinery. The practice of cleaning machinery by means of blotting paper has been established in German workshops. The German workman formerly received on Jin average 250 grams of cotton waste, one new sponge cloth and one or two renovated ones per week; now he is supplied with 150 grams of cotton waste and eight to ten sheets of blot ting paper, at a co3t of 2% cent 3, in stead of as formerly, 6V4 cents. The paper is not only cheaper, but it can not soil the machine with fibers and dust, like sponge cloth and woolen ref use, and it Is far preferable to cotton waste. Beyond this, it is not so com bustible a3 other cleaning materials. Electricity Killing OfT File*. Entomologists report that of lato years the annual crop of flies Is do creasing rapidly and steadily.

A coyote is nlit tle nnimsit ol the wolf species that ill habits the foothills of the Kooky Mountains. Ho is about eighteen inches high anil long in proportion, ami is the embodiment of duplicity. His color is indescribable. He is neither white nor black nor yellow, nor any other well-deSued color; bat a sort of blending of all producing a hue that can best be described as coyote. Ho is not beautiful either in appearance or character. There is nothing attractive about him. He is not troubled with conscientious sam ples; uoither is he brave, and lie won't tight unless be is compelled to. He is a scrub wolf in every senso of the word. His physical beauty is about on a par with bis moral aspect. He has a little, peaked-shaped lieud, in the front of which, very close together, is a pair of the brightest, blackest, wickedest, little eyes that ever shone in the moon light. He does not appear to possess any great amount of brains; but there is more unadulterated cunning wrapped up in liis hide than cau bo found in the same amount of space anywhere elso in creation. Tlio man who imagines that a coyote does not understand bis business just because lie has not n high forehead will soon learn that the principles of phrenology do not apply to this epitome of every thing that is smart, rascally, tricky and impudent. In regard to his ability to get over ground, in other words,"to changelii3 mots, too much cannot bo said. It is a good deal like the wind. Yon can not tell whence lie cometli nor whitlier ho gooth. When'lie makes up his mind to place a certain amount of space between bimself and a given lo cality, he does not stand on the order of going. He docs not run in the common acceptation of the term, but lie suddenly transforms himself into a dimly defined streak cf gray light that Rhimmers across the landscape for an instant nud thon sinks into oblivion, so far as mortal view is concerned. He is soldom seen in the daytime. The glare of the sun does not seem to be suited to his make-up; he prefers to waltz around among the sagebrush in tho soft light of the moon. During the day he is of a retiring disposition and recuperates his exhausted vitality from the previous night's debauch un der the friendly shade of a projecting rook, or in the deep seclusion of a clump of quaking asp, away from the busy haunts of men and remote from any trail or road. Light Employment. Tho Deutsche Zeituug, San Paolo, Brazil, give 3 some shameful particu lars of the "spoils"system as it pre vails iu that country. Ono story, translated in tho Literary Digest, has ail nmusing side. Some time ago a general was sent to ono of tho northern States to investi gate tho management of a Government railroad. He belonged to the set of men who have themselves obnoxious by their endeavors in tho service of re form, and here are some of his ex periences; The very first day lie found in one of the rooms of a railroad station a strong young man who was doing noth ing. Thinking the yonug fellow had come to see him he asked: "Do you wish anything, my friend?" "No, sir. lam employed here." "So! What are your duties?" "I have to fill the water jugs iu tho office every day." The general was a little astonished. In tho next room he discovered another able-bodied young man, smoking a cigarette. "Are you an employe?" ho asked. "Yes, sir. lam the assistant of tho gentleman in the next room." But that was nothing to avhat was to come. The general lmd already been informed that the road employed eight een engineers, while only eight were working. He ordered that in future these men should at least take turn about. Tho Dext day 0110 of the3e "engineers," a beardless youth, came to him and told him that lie could not run a locomotive to save his life. "Then how did you get on the pay roll?" p "Well, yon "see, general, it's this way; My family are poor, but I wanted to study law. We've got some pull, so I managed to get an appoint ment as honorary engineer, to make a living while I pursue my studies." Geese in History. Geese have at least twice merited a page iu recorded history in times past and a third now awaits tho pen of tho chronicler who shall read in the Ger man press that the innocent birds are the cause of a threatened war of cus toms between Germany and Ilnssia. A recent decree of the government of William 11. forbidding the introduc tion of liussian geeso across the fron tier has led Bussia to make reprisals in nullifying concessions made iu the payment of duties ou leather and cel luloid goods. Tho agrarians in Ger many are tho instigators of tho cru sade against liussian geeso on the ground that they spread poultry chol era, but they havo traitors in their own camp, the Gcrmau taste for fatted goose flesh being stronger than tho acceptance of modern quarantine ideas. Concessions on both sides van alone prevent a long contest. —New York Herald. Flag* That Have Disappeared. Of thirty-five flags shown in a fings of all nations supplement to a Lon don weekly iu 1853, barely forty years ago, eleven have disappeared, among them those of the East India Com pany, of the lonion islands, of Tus cany, Naples and the States of the Church, of the Russia-American Company and of Sardinia. HOUSEHOLP MATTERS. Oiling the Wringer. Do not fail to oil the wringer every time you wash. If oiled often there is less wear on the machinery, and less strength is expended by the op erator. To clean the rollers rub them first with a cloth saturated with kero sene oil, and follow with soap niul wa ter. Always loosen the rollers bo fore putting the wringer away. Caring For tho Irons. Irons may be made to last for years and they may be treated iu such fash ion as to wear out in a fow months. The first great secret in their preser vation is to keep them from rusting. To this end, when not in use, they should be stowed away in a cleau, dry place. If, in spite of this care, or, more likely, because of some neglect, they should still become rust}', rub them thoroughly with lard aud bees wax aud then with sandpaper. Planning the Meals. The average housekeeper finds that her memory is shortest when it comes to the daily planning of meals. Her frequent cry that she cannot think of nnything to order never seems to be suggestive to her of its own remedy. She has ordered and does order every day the round of family living, and if when the process is over she would arrange iu a little hook kept for tho purpose the chief dishes that have ap peared oa the table during the twenty four hours, she will find that she< quickly accumulates a valuable memor abilia. Instead of eataloguiug these dishe3 under Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, it is simpler to classify them breakfast, luncheon, dinner; sub stnntials and desserts. A housekeeper who has practised this plan since the beginning of the year has over and over again been amazed to discover how the useful simple "ilfshes escape her memory without it. Tlio China Closet. A china closet should have its glass doors and sides kept as bright as the proverbial new dollar. To bring out the good coloriug of your specially fine bits of ehiua and silver, measure your shelves svith paper aud buy just enough material to allow aa inch be ing turned in all around. Let the fabric to cover your shelves be a high pile plush, either of deep crimson, Lincoln green or goldeu brown. Crim son brings out tho bright trifles best, and while I advise getting a thick pile iu plush, I do not think it at all neces sary to buy an expensive one. A good housekeeper, whose silver always looked brighter than any one's else, was asked what preparation was used to achieve this effect. She answered laconically, "Elbow grease." Aud then she went on to explain that the average bit of silver was usually white rather thau brilliant, since tho aver ago maid thought that putting whit ing ou and takiug none oil' was all that was necessary for the precious metal. "What a good maid should do," said she, "is to use as little whiting as possible, and to rub aud brush until every particle of the whiting is re moved."—Ladies' llomo Journal. Tlio Hag Carpet'* ltd urn. The rag carpet, after many years, has returned. It is ouce again fairly popular, and tlie rag 3 that for a quar ter of a century have beeu going to tho ragman, are now being treasured up, since, if they are of wool, they are al most worth their weight in gold. Why the rag carpet ever did go out of stylo it is hard to determiue, and its reap pearance in society is not difficult to understand. Properly put together aud mado of a good assortment of yags, it is exceedingly pretty and withal, easy to manufacture, all tlio knack needed being the skill necessary to out the rags iu strips, sew them to gether in lougths, and wind them into a ball. For a small sum the rag car pet weaver docs the rest. Bath room aud study rugs aro tho chief uses of the rag carpet of to-diiy. It is not so much rag carpets, in fact, as it is rag carpet rugs.

"Did a long, thin chap with eye-glasses leave a message here for me?" "Did a young woman with a child tell you she expected her hus band to arrive on the Chicago limited? I'm the man."
