{CLAY PIPES..
__.__. .- t
The Largest Factory in the 'Worlrl-Row,
It: “'35 Started. ' \ .
The largest tobacco-pipe factory in
the world is located in Appomattox
county, near Pamplin City.
It had been known for many years
prior to the war°between the States
that there existed clay in that 'county
well adapted to the manufacture of.
tobacco pipes, but' the industry was
carried on in the most desultory way.
[But at the close of the war the whites
turned their attention to the clay de—
posits. It was a necessity, and not a
matter of choice. .
The war had swept away'everything. ,
The implements with which the pipes!
were manufactured were simple and
rude.
The pipes were sold to local mer-
chants, “‘hO‘ shipped them/co whole-
sale dealers in northern cities, who
sold them to retailers throughout the
country. p I
Among the retail dealers who pur-
chased a lot of these poor men’s pipes
was a groceryman in a little town in
Ohio. He sold them at from 2 to 5 cents
apiece, and found them very popular.
-Among those who purchased one was
aqwealthy citizenVof the town. He
smoked nothing else for some time, and
finally inquired of the groceryman as
to'where the pipes were made, The
latter could only give the name of the
wholesale dealer from whom he had
purchased, but from him the gentle-
man learned -that the pipes were made
from a clay bank in the County of Ap-
pomattox, in Virginia. ,
The gentleman saw thafi the pipes
were of very rude construction. He
grew‘ interested, and finally his mind
dwelt so much upon the subject that
he went to the little town'of Appomat-
tox. He went at once to the store of
the dealer in pipes, and was not long
in finding that the best were made at
a bank about eight miles away, at what
is now Pamplin City.
The rest is soon told. The land was
purchased for a small sum, buildings
erected, the latest machinery installed
and soon the kilns were smoking.

THE SOUTHERNERS OF TO-DAY.
They Are Not Wanting in Qualities which
go to Blake a. Good American.
No teacher who has been brought in
contact with students drawn from most
of the Southern States can fail to con-
clude that they are in the main a re-‘
markablykfine body of young men. In‘
’essential charm of manners they are
not inferior to their grandfathers; in
morals they are,on an average, distinct-
ly. better in some important respects,
certain vices being now more frowned
upon than was the case fifty years ago;
in knowledge of the world and in in-
tellectual curiosity they are plainly su-
perior; in sheer mental power they are
not inferior, at least; and in genial
kindliness and bonhomie, and in that
indefinable' but supreme quality, man-
lineSS, they are capable of holding their
own with the youth of any land and of
any age. More high seriousness of pur-
pose might be desired for them, and a.
better comprehension of the importance '
of the intellectual side of our nature,
but being Southern boys, they have the
defects of their own and of their pro—
genitors’ qualities. Still, when all is
said, they impress any fair judge as be-
ing just the stuff out of which a great
civilization ought to be evolved. They -
are as good Americans, in the true
sense of that term, as are to be found
in any section of the Union; they have
inherited the best qualities of their an~
casters; they are,free from the clogs
of slavery; and if they have yet to
struggle against political and l‘eligious
intolerance, they will surely emerge the
stronger for the contest—W. P. Trent,
in Atlantic Monthly.
NEWEST CUT IN DIAMONDS.
Fashion Decrees that; it Should be Long
and Pointed.
There is a. new out in diamonds. With
the ever—changing mode in all things,
gemst too, have their turn, and by
those who can afford the luxury new
jewels and the latest designs are an
absolute diversion, if not a necessity.
At present diamonds of this. style are
not cut in this country, but come from
France ready for setting, long and oval
(almost identical in shape with the
Marquise ring), and are set alone. No
circle of stones is added to the new
cut, they must be solitaire.
«As with all new things they are ex-
pensive. In cutting much of the stone
is taken off in order to make the point-
ed ends. The facets are most beauti—
fully cut, and often smaller or finer
than is usual; Thus they catch ever'y.
ray of light. This makes the stones
particularly brilliant. The least pos-
sible gold or platinum is used in mount-
ing these gems, as it is not intended
that anything shall detract from their
beauty. .
It is in rings exclusively that this
according to the weight, from $500 to
$3,000. Notwithstanding their expense,
all of those which recently arrived in
this city from Paris have been sold;—— ~

The Advantage of Teaching,
Returning from school with a pump-
kin seed in her hand a little girl in-
formed her mother that her teacher
had taught her that the seed was white I
but the pumpkin was yellow. Thel
mother asked: “W'hat is the color of '
the vines?” The fiVe-year-old said that 1
her teacher had not taught her that.
“But,” said her mother, .“you know,
for you have seen the vines in the gar-
den.” “Of course I have, but we are
not expected to know anything until I
we hav’é been taught.fi—The *Philistine. I

F"? Clara Tammy, Gold Medallst. —
x Clara Tschudi, who has Just been
invested with the gbld 'medal for ex-
cellence in literature by 'the King of
Sweden, is one of the most remarkable
characters of “the century. She" was
born in '1856 at Tonesberg. Norway,
and when in her teens, imagined her-
self destined for, the operatic stage.
She studied under the greatest Ger-
man masters'and actually made her
appearance, in some of the principal
cities of Sweden and Germany, achiev-
ing a. great success. Within a year
after her first appearance she began
the study of history and published a.
life of Empress Eugenie of France and
later a monograph on Marie Antoin-
ette.
These efforts placed her in the first
. Q
ranks of women writers of the cam}
tury. ' Since then she has written con:
tinuously and classes among the mos
prominent leaders in the . ,woman’s
movement on the continent. 'Her lat.
est production and the one that earned
her the gold medal is a book entitled
“The Emancipation Question, It’s De- .
velopmeut and Its Present Status."-
This has been translated into English,
German, Russian, French and Italian,
and is considered the most complete
history of the woman’s movement for
emancipation that has yet been pub.-
lished. '
At present Miss Tschudi is working
on “A Cycle of Biographies,” which is
to contain a. sketch of every famous
woman of the century.

aervicenble Waist for Cycling.
A comfortable waist for cycling or
silk or pongee,,lined with fine muslin.
The lining is tight fitting and buttons
down the front. The silk is gathered,
and fastened to the lining at the back.
The front hangs separately from the
lining, and fastens with three large
smoke pearl buttons; it is kept down
at the waist by an elastic band under
a waistband of folded ribbon, finished
by a. bow at the side. The revers,
turn over collar, and cuffs, are lined
with stiff white canvas and are orna-
mented with fancy stitch in white or
colored silk.
'Experinlents with Liquid Air.
Some curious experiments with
liquid air were recently made by Pro-
fessor Barker, at ~ the University of
Pennsylvania, a couple of gallons of the
substance having been dispatched
from New York to him in a milk-can.
The method of manufacturing, the ,
liquid air is described as the compress-
ing of ordinary air to 2,000Ib.‘ per
square ,inch, and cooling it in a. coil
and allowing it to expand, thus pro-
ducing a temperature of 312 deg. Falux,
at which temperature air is a liquid at
atmospheric pressure. The experi-
ments included making the liquid boil
by dropping a frozen egg in it; the
substance also boiled when bits of tin,
platinum, copper, and rubber. were in-
troduced. ‘When removed, the 'tin and
rubber were found to be as brittle as
glass, but the other metals were no:
in the least way affected.
Indoor Exercise
Those who are most confined in-
doors often suffer ill-health from want
of exercise. Nature demands exer-
cise and health cannot exist Without it.
In place of the monotonous dumb-be].
exercise one.could easily substitute the
well-known game of battledore and
shuttlecock. This may be looked upon
as childish by some women, but sure-
ly the objection is a very foolish one.
Then again, women who are not above
superintending their own household
affairs—who. look upon the polish-
ing of a mahogany table or the sweep-
ing of a carpet as necessary but pleas-
ant aids to the preservation of health
—need not have recourse "either to
dumb—bells or childish games. Danc?
ing is also a very healthy >‘exercise
when not carried to excess.
To keep cutlery free from rust, it,
should be placed in boxes lined with
zinc. '
- Pinafore for Child.
There can never be too many aprons
included in a little girl’s wardrobe, for
besides being a great protection to the
dress, they give a clean and dainty ap-
pearance. Fine nainsook is the best
material to use .for a smart pinafore,
as it washes and wears well. For use-
ful wear holland or fine linen,
serviceable.
