OF THE CHIFFONNIERS.Bome Astonishing Facts About These Strange Scavengers of the Streets of the Great French Capital\u2014Their Organization and Their Work.M.Rouff, a dealer in diamonds, lost a fins, large pearl, weighing 125 grains and valued at $8,000.He immedigtety put posters up on all the walls of Paris offering a handsome reward foritsrecovery.Several weeks elapsed, when a poor woman called on the co of police in the Rue Montmartre and handed the lost pearl to that official.Her name was Gautier.She was a chiffonniere, or female ragpicker, by trade, and had found the pearl in a heap of rubbish in the Rue Laffitte.She lived in a small wooden shanty in the Rue du Ruisseau, a poorly tenanted street belonging to a quarter known as Les Grandes Carrieres, so named from the \u2018large quarries\u201d on the northern slopes of Montmartre, where the city formerly got much of its fine limestone for building.The new law that forbids housekeepers placing their rubbish in the streets over night has been a sad blow to the corporation to which this poor, honest woman belongs Some compensation has, it is true, been offered them by the tolerance of the poli who close their eyes to the infringement of the regulations in the narrow streets which are lined with shops and warehouses.They have each their own concierge, who permits them to forage at daybreak among the rubbish brought down by the servants from upstairs.They have a longer day\u2019s work now, Formerly they started out at 10 at night, and at 4or Sin the morning, when the carts made their rounds, they bad disappeared from the streets.Now they must remain until the scavengers appear on the scene, or at least until the boxes of rubbish have been emptied into the common bin placed on the edge of the curb by each concierge.They have the work of sorting to do when they get back from their early morning task of collecting the refuse, Some sell it to a boss or trieur (sorter), as he is called, who stays at home and does nothing else.Ho sits in his room like a gentleman, and there quietly assembles, examines and separates the different articles picked up by his work people.He then sells the material to buyers of various sorts.The business is anything but a lucrative one.Parisians, however, throw away every year more than 300,000 tons of stuff, which the ragpickers collect and sell for upward of 25,000,000 francs, or nearly $5,000,000.The daily returns amount in all to more thau 70,- 000 francs ($14,000), but there are 40,000 men and women to share the sum between them, so that each gets an average of 1 franc 75 centimes, or less than 35 cents.Two hundred pounds of waste paper cannot be sold for more than a couple of francs, woolen rags are only worth 5 cents a pound, cotton 3 cents, and bones at best fetch 1 franc 55 centimes, or 37 cents, per hundred weight.A man working steadily all night\u2014for they still ply their trade on a small scale, despite the edict of the prefect\u2014may earn, if he has a fair amount of good fortune, from forty to sixty cents, but not more.A silver spoon does occasionally turn up in the rubbish, but a pearl of purest orient hue\u2014well, so to speak, never.Besides, every member of the corporation of ragpickers is bound under severe penalties to deposit any valuable he may find at the nearest police office.Each has a card or ticket with a number inscribed, and a number corresponding with that on the card is fastened to the hotte or basket.Ragpickers, moreover.have always been noted for their industry and honesty.The \u2018\u2018new law\u201d I have alluded to was a decree enacted by M.Poubelle, prefect of the Seine, requiring every concierge to provide a box for the rubbish of the tenants, and to have it ready for the dust carts on their morning rounds.It came into force Jan 15, 1884.The evident effect, if not the object, of this regulation was to check the chiffonnier\u2019s occupation, and togive the dust contractor a monopoly of the refuse.On sanitary grounds the prefect may have been right, but policy required moderation even in a question where the health of so large a city as Paris is concerned.Tho fact of suddenly reducing so large a crowd of honest servants to downright beggary was a mistake.Public opinion, which in France, as in other countries of a similar high degree of civilization, is the supreme ruler, spoke up in favor of the ragpicker and against that minor sovereign known as the prefect of the Seine.Many deputies also humanely joined in the protest, so that the now immortal M.Poubelle was constrained to offer partial excuses for his action in the matter, and promised that the utmost tolerance should be exercised by the authorities in behalf of this particular and\u2014as be admitted\u2014*\u2018most honorable\u201d industry.The ragpickers were in future to be allowed to turn out the new dust boxes, so as to be able to rake over the contents.I will conclude this article about rage pickers by relating the story of a poor woman, Mme.Vanard, who arrived at competency by collecting orange peel, and thereby not only helped herself, but gave occupation to others, She became a rich person, a great patroness of art and a regular habitue of the opera, Her husband was in business as a distiller of spirits and essences, such as are used by perfumers and dealers in liqueurs.She gave him as much assistance as she could.He, however, died, whereupon she tried for some time to carry on the distillery alone, but without success, Talking over matters one day with the keeper of a restaurant where she used to take her dinner, she was much struck with a remark that he made, to the effect that there was a fortune to be realized by some clever person in the orange and lemon peel which was daily thrown away by the garcous of the cafes.She took the hint and pondered over it.The next thing she did was to sell her stock in trade and become a sort of amateur chif- fonniere, with this difference\u2014that the object of her quest was orange and lemon peel only.She struck up business relations with the limonadiers and the various waiters who \u2014well, you know how men arel\u2014were glad to help a young and, as she was then, good looking woman, They all, in fact, watched her venture in this new line with considerable interest.She had a tiresome task at first, but soon as she got to be known matters went on more smoothly.The peel idea proved a success.In fact, she prospered so rapidly that she was ere long able to employ other bands to do the dirty work of collecting the material from the \u201cstreets, as also from the theatres, for the sweepings of which she contracted.She presided herself over some thirty young women in her orange and lemon peel warehouse, all of whom were busily occupied in cleaning, pressing and packing the peel as ib arrived, an operation which she christened by the word \u2018\u201c\u2018zester.\u201d Vast quantities of zeste were daily sent away to all parts lof France and abroad to form the basis of Dutch curacoa, orangeade, citronade and the many kinds of light drinks and aperients which are met with over the continent.She has now retired from business, and enjoys the hard earned fruits of her former \u2018abor.\u2014 Mrs, Frank Leslie in Detroit News.A Sad Omission.are well fixed, we ought to

a hiccough, which continued.in spite of all his efforts to check it.Presently he got up suddenly from his chair, and called out in alarm to Mrs Smith- \u201cI've lost my watch!

if it isn\u2019t a failure; so far as the United States are concerned.But it seems that one after another the European nations raise their tip-tilted noses at it, and declare that they are not going to send their beutiful things to America to be coverad with dust and customs duties and things like that, and all chance of trade prevented by the tariff\u2014 not they indeed.And so the Fair about which so much was said, to farther which so much was done, and concerning which fables were rslatad and sach vain-glorious speech used by New Y ork and Chicago, is in danger of being nothing more than a large provincial Fair held at Chicago.RUNNING IT TO GROUND.The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, one of the great railways of the continent, has ordered its conductors to withdraw from the Brotherhood of Conductors, or leave the employ of the com- rany.The superintendent of the company, Mr.Bonzano, is reported to have said:\u201c\u2019 We have had enouzh of labour or- *' ganizations.A'l the conductors, en- * gireers, brakemen and fire men on the * Reading road \u201c The unions are bad for the men and bad for the company\u201d.There was time when such unions seemed to be the only way of getting any consideration at all for the men, but there are ceses where the unions press their advantage too far, and, not only injure their own men, but create such discontent with the organization, that men take the earliest ¢pportunity of leaving it.- The Derby, LoxpoN June 4,\u2014The followin» were the starters in the Derby to-day: \u201cSure- foot\u201d \u201cSanfoin\u2019 \u201cLe Nord\u201d \"Golden Gate\u201d \u201cKirkham,\u201d \u201cRathbeal,\u201d \u201cOrwell,\u201d Martagon,\u201d \"Polybus.\u201d Up to the start \u201cSure- foot\u201d retained first place in the batting and was regarded as a certain winner.There was much surprise, therefore,when \u201cSanfoin,\u201d although the second favorite, came in first ; \u201cLe Nord\" second, \u201cOrwell\u201d third.The winner came in first by three quarters of a length ahead of \u2018Le Nord,\u201d who was a neck in front of \u2018Orwell who was a length in front of \u201cSurefoot.\u201d The latest betting was 85 to 40 on \u201cSure- foot,\u201d 4 to 1 against \u201cSanfoin\u201d and 50 to1 against \u201cOrwell.\u201d | THE CARSLAKE SWEEP There was general satisfaction expressed throughout the city yesterday at tha generous action of Mr George Carslake in allotting the tickets to the charitable institutions of the city.The Wostern Hospital succeeded in drawing \u201cSanfoin\u201d the winner, which will netthe handsome sum of twenty seven hundred dollars to that institution.Four other institutious will have the pleasure of receiving seven teen dollars and fifty cents each for non stariers from the same source.MARRIED.Quinn\u2014Kearns.At St.Patrick\u2019s church on Tuesday June 3rd, by the Rev.Father Toupin, Daniel M.Quinn, to Katie, daughter offDanic] Kearns Esquire, both of this city.are non-union men.; THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, \u2014x THE CURIOSITY SHOP.Y~\\ dé How the Anclents Regarded Ligh Their Superstitious Dread, In the t pagan world we find constant, reference the sense of awe and terror thay was associated with lightning.Its victims wero reckoned the accursed of heaven, and buried alone and apart lest the ashes of others should be polluted by-their presence.Even à spot of ground struck by lightning (Bidenthal) was hedged in, and no man allowed to enter it.Laurel is iow regarded as the emblem of victory and triumph, but Suetonius informs us that the Emperor fiberius wore a chaplet \"of laurel because he believed that lightning would not touch this kind of leaf.In China the mulberry and the peach are regarded as preservatives against lightning.The Romans considered sealskins a protection, and it is curious to note that the shepherds who inhabit the neighborhood of Mount Cosennes, where some Roman colonies existed, cover their hats as a charm against storms with the skins of snakes.The emperors of Japan retired into a deep grotto and had a reservoir of water sunk in the center, in the fatuous belief that it could the lightning.The Tartars, as soon as the first rumble is heard, expel all strangers from their tents, and sit glum and immovable, immersed in woolen cloaks.The contrast is somewhat amusing between these potentates in abject terror an an old couple who were forced, in the great storm of 1703, into a cellar by the fall of & chimney, They were\u2014I use the quaint language of an old tract\u2014\u2018\u2018digged up about 8 o'clock the next morning; it was well worthy of observation that the first question that the man asked was where were his breeches, in which were 50s.in money, and the woman demanded what was become of her trunk, in which were some pieces of gold, being not at all terrified, and minding their worldly concerns more than the danger.\u201d Railroad Statistics.The total number of miles of railroad in the United States at the close of 1888 was 156,082, of which 7,028 miles were construct« ed during the year\u2014the rate of increase be« ing 4.7 per cent.The share capital of the mileage completed at the end of 1888 equaled $4,458,411,342, an increase over 1887 of $246,- 849,313, or about 5.9 per cent, The funded debts of all lines at the close of the year aggregated $4,624,035,023, an increase of $437,- 091,907, or nearly 9.5 per cent.over 1887, The total share capital and indebtedness of all kinds of all roads making returns equaled $9,869,598,954, an increasein th year of 69, - 211,738, or about 8 per cent.The cost per mile of all roads making returns, as measured by the amount of their stocks and indebtedness, equaled very nearly $60,732, against $58,003 for 1887.The gross earnings or receipts of all lines for which returns were received for the year equaled $960,250,270, an increase for the year equaling $20,105,508, or 2.14 per cent.The net earnings equaled $301,631,051, a decrease of $33,358,008, or about 10 per cent.The amount of interest paid in 1888 equaled $207,124,288, an increase of $3,333,936, or over 1.63 per cent.The amount of dividends equaled $80,243,041, a decrease of §11,330,417, or about 12.4 per cent.The number of persons transported during 1888 was 451,333,635, an increase of 23,128,142, or 5.4 per cent.! The number of passengers carried one mile equaled 11,190,613,679, an increase equaling 620,306,900 persons, or very nearly 6 per cent.The amount received per passenger per mile equaled 2.240 cents, against 2.270 in 1887, Had the passenger rates for 1887 been maintained, the earnings from this source would have equaled $255,034,056, a sum $14,491,219 greater than that received.The number of tons of freight transported equaled 539,398, 817, an increase of $7,523,563 tons\u2014about 63 per cent.The value of the tonnage moved in 1888, estimating its value at $23 per ton, equaled 814,033,957,025, The statement of rolling stock of all railroads in the United States shows 20,368 locomotives, 21,425 passenger, 6,327 baggage, wail and express, an 1,005,110 freight cars.1 Instances of Memory.The varieties of memory are as remarkable as its vagaries, There is, for instance, so wide a range between Niebuhr, the great statesman, and a certain divine, that one can scarcely recognize the samo faculty in each.It is said of Niebubr that he remembered everything he had read at any period of his life; and it is said of the reverend doctor that !:e forgot he had been married within an hour or twoof the interesting event.John Wesley bad a remarkable memory, and at 83, even, it was still vigorous.: Andrew Fuller could repeat a poem of five hundred lines after hearing it read once or twice, could recite verbatim a sermon or speech), and enumerate the names of the shop signs from the temple to the end of Cheap- side, with a description of the principal articles displayed in each shop window.Before tho days of shorthand reporting, Memory Woodfall used to attend the house of commons, and, after listening to a debate, would reproduce the whole without tak ing a single note.Tho same power was possessed by William Radcliffe, the hus band of Mrs, RadcliTe, the novelist, Both Macaulay and Sir Walter Scott had prodigious memories, yet neither of them could compare with Beronicius, of Middle burg, who knew by heart the works of Virgil, Cicero, Juvenal, Homer, Aristophanes and tue two Piinys Symbols of Saints.In Christian art the various saints are symbolized as follows: Matthew, with an angel standing near Lim dictating the gospel; Mark, accompanicd by a winged lion; Luke has an ox mear him; John, writing his gospels or bearing a chalice from which a serpent issues; Paul, with a sword and an open book; Peter holds in his Land a book or scroll; James, with a sword, and sometimes attired asa pilgrim; Andrew with a (X) cross; Philip, bearing a largo cress or a basket of loaves; Jude, a club or staff and carpenter's square; Bartholomew, a knife; Thomas, a builder's square, and Simon, with a saw in his hand.A Saying.\u201cAcknowledge the corn\u201d is an czpression signifying an admission when denial would be useless, from evidence of the fact.This significant phrase is said to have had its origin in Connecticut.A farmer had been much annoyed by depredations from his barnyard.Finding a thief making off with a sack of corn, the owner accused him of taking the other things, There was a denial, and when the corn was brought as evidence of the other thefts the man said: \u201cI acknowledge the corn, but not the other things,\u201d Steamer Signals.When two steamers are approaching each other one of them whistles once, which means that she wants to go to the right.Two whistles denote that she wants to pass on the left.If one boat desires to cross the bow of another, she blows one whistle, and if the other desires the same privilege she answers with two whistles.When a steamer is in troubls of any kind and another is coming toward her, the first one blows five or six times, which means \u201cI am disabled; pass me on either side.\u201d Notice to

AILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE = \u2018SCIENCE AND PROGRESS.\u2018SUBJECTS OF INTEREST TO WIDE AWAKE READERS.The Hydraulic Top Exhibited at the Paris Exposition, Which Is in Fact a Water Pump on a Small Scale and an Amusing Scientific Toy.The hydraulic top represented in the cut fs described in Popular Science News as fol lows: It outwardly resembles an ordinary top, furnished with a cup shaped holder (B), on which itis placed while spinning.The holder is covered with rubber on the bottom, to prevent the motion of the top from dis placing it.Then the holder is placed in 8 deep dish filled with water, and the top set spinning upon it, à fine stream of water flows through the top, and is thrown out above, like a miniature fountain, to a height of two or three feet.A HYDRAULIC TOP.The simple interior construction of the top isshown in the illustration.The body (A) is hollow, forming a reservoir (R), with an opening at the bottom, which dips beneath the surface of the water.The central axis, or spindle, around which the top revolves, is hollow and provided with a horizontal tube (C), extending nearly to the side of the reservoir.Attached to the inside of the reservoir, and revolving with it, are two little metal wings, or propeller blad~ (not shown in the engraving), which, by th motion, force the air in the reservoir through the tubes (C, D), creating a partial vacuum, and drawing the water in the dish up into the top and through the tubes, This hydraulic top, which first appeared at the Paris exposition, is, in fact, a water pump on a small scale, and is an instructive and amusing scientifi®toy.The Eyes of Great Men.An oculist who has made the human eye a study for many years claims that the thoroughbred American eye is steel blue in color.He says: \u2018\u2018Among the people of higher civilization eyes grow lighter in hue, and there are today far more blue eyed persons than there were a century ago.If you will be at pains to inquire the color of the eyes of Bismarck, Gladstone, Huxley, Virchow, Buchner, Re- nan\u2014in fact, of any of the living great, as well as of the great army of the dead who in life distinguished themselves, you will learn that most of them have, or had, eyes of blue or gray.It hasseemed that the pigment is in the way; that it obscures the ° jects presented to the visual organ, and that t! o aspiring mind seeking the greatest light casts it off.\u201d The Geysers of Yellowstone Park.4 remarkable development of activity in the geysers of Yellowstone park was noted in the early part of September.Inthe upper basin all the principal geysers were in simultaneous activity, and the escape of steam and gases was said to be terrific.An unusually severe storm was raging on the Atlantic coast, 2,000 miles away, at the time, and this fact was telegraphed all over the country as the causé of the outbreak, although Popular Science News thinks there was probably not the slightest connection between them, The activity of the geysers is constantly varying in intensity, and depends upon causes at present unknown to us.The International Congress on Hypnotism.The following resolutions were adopted by the international congress on hypnotism held in Paris last month: 1.Public exhibitions of hypnotism or magnetism should be forbidden by government; 2.The use of hypnotism asa therapeutic agent should be restricted to practicing physicians; 3.Itis to be hoped that the method an: practice of hypnotism will be included in tho medical education of students.An Ingenious Arrangement.The illustration represents an ingenious arrangement, which, by means of combustion of oil in a lamp, indicates the hour of the night.The design explains itself.Two vertical tubes are fixed above the reservoir of oil.The left tube contains oil, and is marked with the hours; the right tube burns the oil as a lamp.A CLOCK LAMP, The apparatus is so constructed by the inventor, M.H.Behn, that a certain quantity of oil is consumed exactly in one hour between two graduations of the hour tube.A reflector placed beside the lamp enables one to see the time by night very plainly.Scientific Briefs.Wave power has been utilized this season at the sea beach, in one instance to supply street sprinkling tanks with water.Sugar has been successfully used in Italy 8s a means of preventing the incrustation of boilers.! It is believed by those who are in a position to know that steam plows will soon revolu- tlonize the method of breaking the soil on the prairies of the west, Four of the twelve grand prizes awarded by the Paris exposition wère gained by United States citizens, & y The quickest, surest and best remedy for rheumatism, neuralgia, lumbago, Sore throat, soreness and lameness, is Hagyard\u2019s Yellow Oil.It quickly cures sprains, bruises, burns, frostbites, chile blains, ete.For croup, colds, quinsv etc, take 10 to 30 drops on sugar, and apply the oil externally also, when ime CARS mediatd relief will result.- ALL AROUND THE HOUSE.Flowers, Grasses and Berries Preserved for Yinter Decorations.Perhaps many of our readers do not appreciate how easily some of the graceful flowers and pods and brilliant berries of autumnal plants can be preserved to give brightness and a touch of nature\u2019sown beauty to the home in winter.Golden rod, for instance, can be kept for a long time by gathering perfect specimens and hanging them away In à dark closet.Many handsome marsh grasses and the lovely and artistic cat-tails should be gathered and kept in the samo way.Other things that contribute much to beau- #iul wMter decorations and dried bouquets are tho fluffy, soft and shining balls, or pom= pons, that can be made from milkweed pods.To make these milkweed balls, open the pod carefully, take out the silky filaments, and after shaking the seeds off dlp the little bunches of filaments into water to prevent their flying about; gather them all upas skillfully as you can and tie in small bunches and then fasten on toa wirestem.These balls are very dainty and pretty.The beautiful mountain ash berries and barberries are preserved for winter decoration in a brine of two handfuls of salt to about three pints of water.Boil the brine, and when cold put in the berries and tie up tightly to exclude the air.Old Fashioned Cider Apple Sauce.Mrs.S.D.Power gives a recipe for making the old fashione:! cider apple sauce that used to be a favorite dainty prepared in large quantities in the fall for family use during winter in many country households.It differs from apple butter in that no spices go into it to impair the high flavored apples of which it should be made, and the quartered apples aro not boiled to pulp, but simply preserved in the clear sirup of condensed cider.Boil down sweet cider to one-foerth or one- fifth its quantity and add soiid, sub-acid apples, pared, cored and quartered, with one- fourth their weight of sugar.Boil them very slowly till they look lucid, without losing their shape; take out carefully with a wooden skimmer without breaking and boi} the sirup till ft is thick; then pour it over ¢.o apples.A very few quinces stewed soft tin a little water are sometimes added, and give a flavor that is liked by some persons.Novel Fancy Work.Pretty and quite new in fancy work is the use of the ribbons that come tied around packages of cigars.A number of artistic things can be made with these cigar ties.Sewed together lengthwise they form a very dainty light silken scarf, the width of the scarf being the same as the length of the ribbon or ties, which must be nicely hemmed at the ends; the scarf is finished with a fringe of the ribbons doubled.Handsome little bags for various purposes are formed of these ribbons basted on a lining, with the edges caught together by cat stitching of some attractive, contrasting color.The cigar ties themselves vary from pale yellow to dark orange, with some of red or red and orange.Another fashion of utilizing them is to fringe out one edge of the ribbons and knit them into sachets, small cases for gloves, handkerchiefs, etc.WINDOW CURTAIN MADE OF CIGAR TIES.The cut represents a part of a window curtain made in this way: The narrow yellow or red silk bands are first ironed out and lengthwise.These squares are cdged with red or bluo ribbons, and some applique ornamentation placed in the centers.They are then made up into curtains by intersections and borders of opanwork guipure lace, as our illustration shows.The light transmitted through the fine silk and lace produces a peculiarly soft effect, Worth Remembering.That jewelry of all kinds can be beautifully cleaned by washing in soap suds, in which a few drops of spirits of ammonia are stirred, shaking off the water and laying in a box of dry sawdust to dry.As simple as this sounds, it is the very nicest way to cleanse chains, pins, or any jewelry, as it leaves no marks or scratches.That a nickel\u2019s worth of whiting and a bottle of ammonia will keep silver forks, spoons and other tableware always bright and shining.That one of the handiest ways to clean out the inside of washbowls, baths \u2018and the stationary marble basins, on which a sort of scum or deposit forms if not very carefully cared for, is just to rub them with dry salt.It takes off all dirt and leaves them bright and shining, - That if you will rub lamp chimneys with dry salt after washing it will give them new brilliancy.That a first rate way to clean the collars of men\u2019s and boys\u2019 coats and ladies\u2019 cloth jackets of dark colors isto first sponge with a weak solution of ammonia and then with alcohol, and rub dry with flannel, Table Fashions and Fancies.Very pretty tablecloths and serviettes for 5 o'clock tea are those embroidered a la Russe or marking stitch.Some Japanese and Egyptian menus are quaint, the latter apparently printed in color on torn parchment.In place of tall celery glasses, formerly in fashion, are provided a variety of horizontal shapes on which the celery stalks are laid.Similar shapes are also furnished for asparagus, while tiny little dishes with folding sides &re provided for after-dinner coffee spoons.Individual cream and sugar receptacles of ou glass are a delight to the housekeeper's New trays in ice cream sets, coler y : 8 y trays, ste.in Parisian destgned fine cut glass, aré ek g displayed in many patterns, Tennis P Jers, In white and gold, represented in bi gures, are new and pruity, and will Please the lovers of the game.» tad ivoryware resembles Royal Wor- T in shapes more and mars every season.A Marvellous Recovery.I was So ill with inflammatory rheu- mat ist 10 1882 that I was given up, and od a xy earthly business put in order.Bre 3 Ba sons begged me to get Burdock too L itters, After the third bottle 1 co nS sit up alone and eat a good meal, ud n8ix weeks I was out of bed feeling Detter than I ever felt.I take three es every spring and two every fall, rs, M.N, D, BENARD, MAIN ST, WiNNIPEG, MAN, made up in squares by sewing them together | NEW ADVERTISEMENTS ADVERTISEMENT, Carsley\u2019s Advertisement, \u2014\u2014 NEW LINEN T NEW LINEN TOWErS Now in stock a very la Towels, Bath-room Towels die Ro1 Betron els.Special makes, $1.00 up to Sty phen Tog.0z, TABLE NAPKI TABLE NAPRINS Just to hand a new lot 3 kins, hemmed ready for se LR Linen Nap.for reaside and country use, pecial make;
