CURIOUS NEEDLES IN EUROPE.
One Made from a Hair and Another
la Covered with Beautiful
Engraving.
Many years back the then king of
Prussia visited a needle manufactory
In his kingdom. He was shown a num-
ber of superfine needles, thousands of
which together did not weigh half an
ounce, and marveled how such minute
objectB could be pierced with an eye
But he was shown something even
finer. The workman whose business
It was to bore the eye lu the needles
asked for a hair from the monarch's
head. It was readily given, and with
a smile the borer placed It under his
machine and made an eye in it. This
he furnished with a thread, and then
handed the singular needle to the as
tonlshed king.
Another most curious needle was
In the possession of Queen Victoria. It
was made at the celebrated needle
manufactory at Reedltch, and repre-
Bents the column of Trajan in mini-
ature. This well-known Roman column
Is adorned with numerous scenes In
sculpture which Immortalize Trajan's
heroic actions in war, and on this
llminutlve needle, which was present-
ed to the queen on her visit to the
tanaous manufactory in December,
1864, scenes In her life are presented
In relief, but so small that it requires
t powerful magnifying glass to see
Jhem clearly.
The "Victoria" needle can, more-
over, be opened, and contains a num-
ber of needles of smaller sice, which
are also adorned with scenes In re-
lief.

What He Used.
He la an urchin of possibly six, with
Itraight red hair and impish face. In j
the New Jersey suburb where he lives
bis name is a synonym for general
deviltry, despite parental efforts. A
few days ago an irate matron sent a
note saying that her daughter had
been shocked by the urchin's bad lan-
guage. i
Tearfully and somewhat helplessly
a flushed young mother confronted a
placid small boy. "What shall I do
with you, son?" she asked. "What
bad language can you have used that
Mrs. Blank should forbid you te play
With Nellie?"
"Oh, nothing much," was the re-
ply. "Only the ordinary swear words
I use about the house, mother. I
wouldn't worry about it if I were
you."
