While military uifii arc insisting that
the red coat of the British soldier and the
red trousers of the French soldier are dan
gerous, becauso their colors render them
peculiarly liable to be hit, no 0110 seems to
liavo noticed that black is the most deadly
of colors, while white is the safest. This
has been shown over and over again in the
fights which occasionally take place in the
southern states between black and white
citizens. At one of these lights, which
took place in Atlanta, four blacks were
killed and eight wounded, while only two
white men were hit, and neither of the two
was killed.
This shows that a black man is six times
as liable to be hit by bullets as is a white
man. So, too, in conflicts btween red
men and white men tho former are hit
about twice as often as the latter. It is
hence evident that soldiers should be
dressed exclusively in white, and that tho
Austrians made a mistake in abandoning
their famous white coats. Paris Herald.
Conducive to Blindness.
The demand for spectacles, aud especial
ly for colored or smoked glasses, is con
stantly on the increase, and unless we are
goiug to be a race of blind people something
must soon be done to modify the electric
light. It is too strong for weak eyes, and
the bright glare ou white paper is not
good even for the strongest. The arc
lights in the streets are very bad, since
thpy cause a constant expansion anil con
traction of the pupil in the effort to adjust
itself to the varying shades of light, but
the house lamps aro not much better, and
many persons complain of their eyes who
do not know what ail them. A tinted
glass used in the globc-a cf the house lamps
would relieve the eye very much. Any
tint would answer the purpose red, yel
low or bine, the tint being jnst enough
to take oh" tbe sharp glitter of the light

EVOLUTION OF THE MODERN FROM
THE SAVAGE GARNT.
Covering First Made of Bark Beginning
of the Tetticoat, the Corset, the Stock
ings and Other Apparel Bibbons First
Ufeed by Barbarians.
"To trace the development from their
primitive origin of women's garments as
they are worn today is very easy," said
Professor Mason at the National museum.
'You can see the original of the petticoat
even now among savage peoples all over
.he world in the shape of the universal
waist cincture, with pendent drapery of
bark or what not.
"The most beautiful illustration of this
is to be found at present among the Indians
f the northwest coast. The female among
those tribes ties a cord around her waist
and hangs therefrom innumerable strings
of shells, beads, pine nuts and all sorts of
things that are pretty and make a jingle.
So sacred are these ornamental girdles
considered that when the girls join the
white schools and are obliged to adopt civ
ilized clothing it is very usual for them to
wear the garments under their skirts be
hind, doubled up. Many authorities aver
that this is actually the source from which
the notion of the bustle was derived.
"The cincture I have described reaches
only from the waist to the middle of the
thigh. As to the upper part of the body
the Indian maiden of the northwest wears
nothing for a covering, except in cold
weather, when she puts on the tanned skin
of some beast, simply tying it over the
windward shoulder and under the other
arm with strings. Thus you have an ad
mirable example of the most primitive fe
male costume. The next step in the de
velopment of the upper garment is made
by cutting holes through tho skin to ac
commodate the arms, and in this shape
you find the primitive and earliest form of
jacket.
AMOXG THE POLYNESIANS.
"Take a big jump over to the islands of
tho Pacific and you find the savages mak
ing clothing for themselves out of mul
berry bark, which they beat with mallets
and wash until all the soft part of its sub
stance has been taken out of it, leaving tho
textile portion, which serves in that shape
for a soft and strong cloth. A piece of
any sizo can be made by hammering the
edges of many pieces together until they
unite so perfectly that it is difficult to find
where they join.
"It is believed that the largest piece of
this mulberry cloth in the world is at
present in the National museum; it is six
feet long by twenty feet wide. Among
the rich islanders it is the custom for a
woman to wrap as much as thirty or forty
yards of the stuff around the body, below
the breasts, which are left exposed. The
simple lengthening of the primitive waist
garment makes the petticoat as we find
it today.
"As for the jacket, its most primitive
form was that of a skin tied over the shoul
ders. Next the skin became a blanket,
and soon a hole for the head was cut
through the middle of the blanket, as in
tho Mexican cloak called the 'poncho.'
You will find the Arabs even now employ
ing the same device, with ike addition of
holes for the arms. By tho timo you have
got this far the jacket is pretty nearly com
plete. All it needs to become entire are
sleeves and cutting to the figure.
OP.IGIN OF COP.SETS.
"Corsets have always been worn in one
shape or another by people who were at all
civilized, the necessity for some support
for the bust being obviously the occasion
for them, and not fashion, to begin with.
Women of ancient Greece and Rome wore
a cloth bandage wrapped about the body,
more or less tightly, beneath tho bosom
for the purpose. In the timo of Queen
Elizabeth the corset, as you are doubtless
aware, was a far more formidable thing
than it is now, in stiffness and size almost
like a piece of armor. Nowadays women
wear corsets because they inako their fig
ures shapely, and that reason is sufficient
to constitute a certainty that they will go
on doing so for an indefinite time.
"As for stockings, you know yourself
they are of the most modern invention, as
may be judged from the fact that Queen
Elizabeth was censured for her extrava
gance in procuring a few pairs of silk stock
ings for her own use. To discover the ori
gin of the stocking you have only to con
sider the fact that the people in early
times, finding the simple sandal not very
comfortable, wore it as a solo for a soft
foot covering separate from it, which was
the first attempt at luxury in footwear.
You can see that it was only necessary to
stitch the sandal to the soft shoe in order
to make what was to all intents and pur
poses the shoe of the present day. But the
men of those early times found it con
venient to wear for hunting purposes leg
gings to protect their limbs from the
thorns and burrs. Hence have been devel
oped what we know as breeches or trousers.
Recently there has reached the museum a
pair of ancient leggings of the sort de
scribed attached by sewing to the soft
undersoles. Here you have what is doubt
less the original form of stocking.
NATURAL HISTOBT OF RIBBONS.
"Nothing is more closely identified with
women's dress today than ribbons. What,
then, is the origin of ribbons? You can
discover it very simply by looking at the
long fringe of strips into which the primi
tive savage cuts the deer hide or other
skins that forms his garment or his to
bacco pouch or whatever else of his orna
mental possessions you please. Why does
tbe savage go to the trouble of cutting the
beast's hide into such strips? It is because
the eye is pleased with waving curves.
"When savage fashions merged into civil
lized fashions this idea was retained, and
so at present we find weavers and makers
of stuffs manufacturing their fabrics into
what we call ribbons. They are adopted
peculiarly by women ra this age, when the
masculine sx eschews ornanyint in civil
ized life almost wholly.
"The hat, in its origin, is a thine purely
ornamental. Except in arctic climes,
where as much as possible of the body
must be covered to keep out the cold, sav
ages have never thought of protecting the
head. With us it is a matter purely of cul
tivationthe necessity for a head covering
growing out of the habit of employing it.
The beginning of the hat was what yon
find it among savage peoples today a tuft
of feathers, a bunch of porcupine quiUs or
what not " Washington Star.

"Afary," ho Baid feebly, tailng another
hold on a sleeping 5-year-old boy as they
came oil tho boat, "I woa't carry Johnnie
a foot farther." He was staggering under
his load and looked ready to drop. She
was twice as Ur as he.
"John, you are selfish. Johnnie is tired
to death."
"So am L Ho can wake np nnd walk."
"He cannot. He hiia been running in tho
sand all day and is worn out."
"Yes, and I've been running after him."
"If you wake him up he will cry."
"Let him cry."
"Let that poor child cry? Haven't you
any feeline for yoor own son?"
"I should think I have. Ho weighs
enough to inspire me with feeling. I posi
tively won't carry him."
"You will."
"If you don't take him I will drop him,
and he can cry his lungs out."
"H you drop him I will tako him in my
arms, sit down on that step and not bndg
an inch."
"But I won't carry him. I can't."
"John Henry Smith, don't you tell mo
that you can't carry that dear boy. If you
put him down and wake him up you will
be turned out of the house to-night. Yon
can spend tho night in tho streets and see
how you like it. Don't you dam to put

A Familiar Fnce.
"When Congressman Thomas TV. TJptle
gralT was making a speeoh at Canton, O.,
in 1S78 he was frequently interrupted by a
man in tho audience who shouted, "What
about resumption f "
Finally Mr. Updegraff said: "There ara
a great many people in tho country who
aro raising a terrific to-do about resump
tion. They talk about it as if it had teeth
and claws and a hooked taJL My friend
over there wants me to talk about resump
tion. I will tell him a story. A very
worthy old lady, who had spent all br Hfa
on a farm in the Western Reserve, visited
the state fair for tho first time last year.
Her son took her around and the adndred
the nights.
"Presently they came to a tent on which
was placarded uu inratton to the public
to enter and behold a most wonderful bird
'tho Melanerpei Erfi1irocephalus' for
tbe small price of ten cents. The old lady
persuaded her son to take her in. Shu
found nn old friend in the small bird with
in a big cage. She repressed her emotion
until they were outside tho canvas again,
and then she said with great empLuwls,
'Why, John, that ain't nothin' but a red
headed woodpecker.' " FltUburg Di

The old cradle. We all rocked at that.
For fifteen years the cradle was going
much of the time. When tho elder child
was taken out the smeller child was put
in. The crackle of the rockers is jet pleas
ant in my ears.
There I took my first lessons in music as
mother sang to me. I have heard what
people would call far better singing since
then, but none that ho thoioughly touched
me. She never got $500 per night for sing
ing two or three songs at tho Academy,
with two or three encores grudgingly
thrown in, but without pay she sometimes
sang all night and rtnio out whenever en
cored, though flbo hnd only two little earn
for an audience. It was lu a low, subdued
tone, that bings to me yet across more than
forty years.
The edge of the rocker was won qulto
deep. That was where her foot was placed
when alio sat with her knitting or sowing
on n summer afternoon, whilo the bees
hummed at tho door and the shout of tho
boy at tho oxen was heard afield. Dr. Tl

An Actor's Coiocldeacn.
The following instance may bo regarded
by thcHiiperHtitious as sufficient warning
against all jests on such a grim subject as
grim death. It is related by Bolton, tho
English actor and author. Stan Reeves,
the famous tenor, vras once playing Squlra
in the "Mother Gooso" pantomime, and at
tho very moment he wan walking off tho
stage singing.
My wife is dead, there let her lit,
Sue's at reit and so am I.
a man tapped him hurriedly on tho
shoulder and whispered, "Sorry to tell
you, Mr. Reeves, that Mrs. Rcves is dead.
Mrs. Balyntyne directs mo to tell you to
coma home immediately." Heaven was
completely prostrated by the suddennesa
of the announcement, and was first to
notlco the odd coincidence that connected
tho little wayward song with his wife's
death. St. Louis Republic.
A Very Old Horso.
"Old Kate," a horso burned to death in
Cincinnati, was, her owner alleges, AR years
old. She was born In Walos of thorough
bred stork. She was shipped to Cunada in
1840, being only a yearling. Tha voyag
had a bad efiYct upon her, and the im
porter sold the stunted colt to a farmer,
who kept her until she was 3 year old,
when she began to grow.
Tho farmor sold her to Hugh Morgan, a
lumber dealer of this city, and ho kept her
up to bis death, in 1801. Showaof a jet
black at that time, and nerved as a car
riage horc At Mr Organ's death tho
mare went to Mr. Lannlng, who ran a
planing mill on Canal street. He in tarn
sold her to a flxh and oyster dealer en Linn
street, and it wiu of this man her iat
owner bought her seven years ago. Sh
was then 39 years old, but lively as a kit
