eie graph wires underground was tried by the prussian government many years ago but did not prove practicable in consequence of knowledge as to the best beat means of insulation and protection against the attacks of animals and gradual decay but recent trials under a better system have proven so successful that the germans after having laid down miles of underground insulated wire have resolved upon a considerable further extension the plan adopted in germany consists in enclosing seven or more separately insulated conductors condic condie tors within a core corg of moist hemp surrounded by a complete sheath of iron wire which again is covered with a layer of hemp yarn impregnated with a protecting compound these land cables are wound upon drums at the sheathing works and after being subjected to careful electrical test teat are paid out into trenches three feet deep and covered up M siemens states that in five years no repairs have been needed and that none will be required for

young girl forms an opinion on about any of the young men nieu who flit about her say the philadelphia tomes times ti weg meg wes she janows how to give that opinion expression in a way so original and direct as often to startle those more given to reflection it was a young girl who dho upon being asked her hep reason for declining to enter the marriage state with a young man who was known to have urged heron her on on this pleasant matter explained that she ehe thought ile lle lie he was too much of a fluffy angel s it was the quick suggestion of a girls mind I 1 but it was to the point and land nil all the labors of the masters of language would fail fall to produce an expression arm n that would more fully meet th the c case e the girl had said just what she wanted to say the fluffy angel is not an uncommon thing on this earth where any sort of an angel is very rare indeed the fluffy angel which the young girl referred to is the perfectly sweet but insensibly soft young thing we have all seen somewhere in fact we see him almost everywhere he is too nice for any thing all ail through the earlier social life of the average girl he wears such lovely gloves his moustache is just awfully cute and his neckties are perfectly killing any young girl will tell you this he understands the latest and nd positively the most fascinating of the dances his clothes are just exquisite always up to the latest turn of fa fashion bailon and frequently a few days ahead with some of the fluffs fluffy angels in fact fashion often has trouble to catch up he always knows to

to ie a fluffy angel all this is very nice for the young girl who begun to get an idea of life beyond a dish of ice cream and a waltz in her day dreams and in her night dreams she isso is so mixed up in this sort bort bf thing that you would suppose it impossible that she could ever extricate her seid she has no care about it herself if and alid no thought concerning whether she wui will do it or not she enjoys herself in this way better ith ath with a fluff fluffy y angel than she would with any other kind hind of human being and when a young girl gets her mind upon her enjoyments enjoy ments she has got it fully oc when however the fiuty fluffy angel goes to the young girl with a marriage proposal she instantly comes cornea out of her dream that is if she Is one ont of ninety five in every hundred girls she bhe knows that a husband cant possibly be made of a fluery angel and when the fluffy an angel I 1 gets to the pointon supposing can be anything else she knows that his usefulness is gone she turns elsewhere if the fluffy angel is capable of thought to any extent he be ought to try and reflect upon this and try not to be so much of a fluffy angel that he be cantlo anything else he would bo be useful further along in life lire than he now is in truth he might not be a fluffy angel at all and his earthly work would not necessarily come to an end the mo ment meat
