is no branch of fine art more intricate In the matter of manufacture or In which closer attention to detail 1* necessary to secure the desired result*.

Interesting, but some of them AXtrems'ly curious. An Immense amount ot "ground glass.” for instance, U employed not only In art glass windows but in office* and other piaoas where light Is desired and yet where a certain amount of privacy Is considered necessary. The ground glasa In doors and windows answer* the requirement, and 1* prepared In enormous quantities. Formerly It was ground by hand the grinder with a hard stone block laboriously going over every portion of the plate until tbe desired effect bad been secured. Later It was ground ot> a wheel, like a grindstone, and thus the process was greatly expedited. Hut machinery has still further lightened the labor of the grinder, and at present all glass Is ground by the' aid

of the sand blast.

The Amalgamated Waiters' society of London, which certainly ought to be an authority on "tipping." seems to be strongly “agin it." They recently called a meeting the purpose of which was the formutation of a petlr -tlon to the London county council, requesting that a license be refused to any-"restaurant, theatre, music hall or other public place where refreshments are sold" .which will not pay a fair wage to its employes, "without any question as to tips." The claim was made that If waiters were paid tif their services in a straightforward, honest way. the tipping (nuisance would soon disappear, and that this was the only way in which It could be abolished. Now that has combined with the < denouncing the practice it ought to be an easy matter to bring tbe'res tear and hotel-keeper Into line. Some Interesting data are being collected in Massachusetts by order of tbe legislature In connection with the \ poll-tax problem. It Is learned, in advance of the presentation of the report, .that while these taxes are generally collected in the small towns, their payment Is evaded in the cities. In Boston so long ago as 1895 only 41 percent of the poll-taxes were-collect-ed. and siaoe then the ratio bad been growing decidedly smaller. As metnbara of tbe legislature are no more cooecienHous m this matter than are their constituents. It may pnzxle them what to do with the report when they get It- If thoee among tbe lawmakers wbo had paid the poll-tax ehooM be aaked to rise. • “It would be found.” tbe Boston Advertiser, says, "that oat ot tbe «0 Boston members in tbe house only 16 had settled for tbefr poll-taxea. and out of the eight Boston members In the senate, only two bad paid. When about 75 percent ot the Boston members of tbs legWatnre . Rave not paid their poll-taxes. Is It any wonder that their eopstltuents feel even , lees obligation' to do so?~ this connection a novel suggestion la made by tbe advises that hereafter.

Tbe making of a window Is an Intricate and delicate operation. In the flrat place, there mu.i be a pattern. Sometimes this is planned. In a general way, by the customer, but more frequently the would-be purdfitter, whether the owner ot a private house, the pastor of a church or the donor of a memorial window, contents himself with an indication of what be wants and leaves the rest- to the artists of the factory. These first prepare a design, outlining the general plan. The design is then tinted to indicate tbe colors of glass to be employed in Its construction. Tbe color sketch proving satisfactory a plan of the proposed window 1* drawn of the exact slze of the space to be filled. Every part of the pattern receives a cumber and is also marked with cabalistic figures to indicate tbe color and kind ot glass to be employed. Tbe plan Is then cut Into pieces of many dlffetent sixes, and-, every shap: of which the mind can conceive, and the result is a heap of paper bits, having no apparent connection with each Mher. The draftsman, however, has the secret of the combination, for he ban preserved a duplicate sketch for the use of the men who. from the scattered fragments, are to construct the The pieces into which the plan has been divided are passed on to the gins* cotters, wbo take sheets of sufficient

'•kin of tbe face and hands.

Formerly, the “old maid" was expected to marrb. anyhow, irrespective of desire. What else was there for her to do? Marriage or superfluity; those were the alternatives placed before her In the cradle. And true enough, she had small choice of occupations. In Adkerica, particularly, there is now a large body of single women who are delightful people; cultivated without being pedantic: cheerful. but not hysterical; helpful, not officious; and these are not necessarily professional women, either.
