A curious effect of the wear and tear to
which the earth's crust Is ever being sub-

are hundreds of these slender pillars,
ranging in height from 40 to 400 f(fct,
most of them crowned by large caps of
stone. They are not works of human art,
im might almost bs imsgiiied, but urs the
memorial monuments of the once rounded
hills, from which they have been cut by
the action of air and water. These pin-
nacles alone remain of some square miles
of solid rock, which has been washed
away to a depth of 400 feet. The greater
hardness of the surface has caused it to
resist corrosion more than the underlying
rock, thus leaving the huge stone caps
perched high in air on the points of the
thin columns. At one point, while this
carving process has been going on, a thin
wall of rock was penetrated, leaving a
lofty natural bridge or arch, which adds
to the picturesqueness of a remarkable
landscape. —Arkansaw Traveler,

Mask* for Valuable Gems.
A richly dressed, handsome young
woman attracted considerable attention
In the box of a fashionable theatre one
evening this week. It was not her un-
usual beasty—for there were other i<uii€&
present who excelled her in personal
charms—that made her conspicuous,
neither was it due to any unusual deport-
ment on her part. The whole claim upon

diamond earrings she wore. As they
caught the rays of the electric light they
almost dazzled the eyes of the audience.
There evidently was no paste about them.
They were genuine stones and worth not
less than $2,000 each. When the play
had come to an end, a reporter who had
observed the lady during the performance,
saw her as she was leavintr the buildimr.
He looked for the diamonds, but they
were not visible. The setting of the stones
remained the same, but in the place of
the gems were two chased gold bulbs,
such as any fashion loving saleslady
might have aspired to own.
"Looking for the diamonds?" asked the
reporter's companion, who spent his days
in a Maiden lane jewelry emporium.
"Yes. Has she changed her earrings?"
"XTn* oKa fctill OU- 1
merely covered them up with those gold
masks. These contrivances are of recent
origin," he explained; ''and are becoming
very fashionable. They are cheap and
neat. They fit over the stones and hide
them from view. By this means a lady
can wear plain gold ornaments on the
street, and the moment she reaches the
playhouse she can blossom out in the mot t
gorgeous jewelry. She runs no risk of
robbery, and offers no bait to highway-
men. It is safe and economical."—New
York Mail and Kvmv.sc '
Tlio Editorial Still' Neck,
The editor of this paper is afflicted with
a stiff neck. The doctor has gravely pro-
nounced it muscular rheumatism. It
must be very muscular—possibly of the
John L. Sullivan species—as it has tho
aforesaid editor down, and so far as ,there
are any inferences to be drawn from the
storm signals it intends to keep him down
until the soft zephyrs of the gentle spring
release the rippling* rills from their icy
fetters and young onions come again.

without its bright side. It has given us a

Wasteful Method* of Burning Coal.
An interesting calculation has been
lately made by Professor Rogers, of.
Washington. lie tells us that the dy-
namic power of a single pound of good
steam coal is equivalent to the work of a
man for one day; three tops of the same
coal will represent a man's labor dor
twenty years; and one square mile cjf a
seam of coal having a depth of four feet
only will represent as much work as 1,00A;-'
000 men can perform in twenty years.
Such calculations as these may serve to*
remind us how very wasteful our methods
of burning fuel must be, in spite of all
that lias been done by engineers in the
way of economy.—Chambers' Journal.
An Exclusive Hoston Club.
The most rigidly exclusive club in Bos-
ton is the Manuscript club, It has no
club house, but meets at the houses of
three members, who are not only some-
thing in society." but more in amateur
musical talent. Not literary manuscript,
but musical manuscript is what the club
revels in, and nothing that is common
enough to have appeared in print is ever
performed in the club. The members,
fifty in number, are all amateur musi-
cians of local celebrity, and besides their
own work they have at their homes the
best of the professional artists in Boston,
who join them in interpreting musical

The Misericordia of Florence.
Here, as we turn a corner, we meet one
of tlie queerest looking procc. sfons in the
world. It is a small company of men,
their heads perfectly covered with white
mantles, with holts for tue eyes and
mouth. They look in the moonbeams like
a company of dead people, just resurrected
and walking about t;he streets, with
shrouds still upon them. One of them,
met alone in an American town, would
scare any girl into hysterics.
A feeling of indignation comes over us
as we glance at this strange walking
group, but when we know what they are,
it turns into a sentiment of fervent love.
They are the Misericordia—an association
formed to comfort and relieve misery
wherever they can hear of it. They are
recruited from all classes of citizens, fy'om
the prince to the pauper. \Wien a certain
Signal is struck by thy bell of the big
cathedral, it' means that somebody is suf-
&ri»g**Jnlr j&eeds their help. Those on
dyl# t,h|<it.w,eek must rush to their rendez-
vous as village people do to a fire, and
help the afflicted one. These masks con-
ceal their faces from bystanders and from
each other. No one knows who they are
—not even the person who is receiving
tHeir help. Six of these men are bearing
a human body with them. If the stretcher
is tightly closed they carry a corpse; this
one is open, thank heaven, and they are
iryjiig to save a life to its friends. If any
association in Italy has the approval of
God. the Misericordia has.—Will Carleton

Steel and Cast Iron.
A series of experiments recently made
by a French metallurgist are stated to
have proved that'steel loses weight by
rust about twice as rapidly as ci.st iron
when exposed to moist air. Acidulated
water was found to dissolve cast iron
much more rapidly than steel. This
would indicate that, steel bridges are less
affected by the acids contained in the
smoke of locomotives than iron ones.—
