HOME DYES THAT ARE FAST. Kn?y to Male?, Beautiful Color* With the Kelluble Ulauiond Djrus, ScorcB ot womoa in Roanoku are to? day wearing dresses ot fashionable color that would havo been thrown aiide long ?go had It not boen for Diamond Dyus. With a ten cent package of (heso Bimple home dyes even toe novice can dye a fast ana beautiful color equal to the work of tbe professional dyu-house. Oloaks, capes and shawls are readily dyed, so that a faded garment will look as taouRb. it was riebt from the shop. Out of the so different kinds ot Dia? mond Dyes, 12 are special fast colors for ootton and mixed goods, that will not crook or fade, even whon washed in strong, soacsudi. These dyes are made from a peculiar combination of dye Stuffs, and cannot be had except in the Diamond. For over twenty years Diamond Dyes have been the standard home dyes, and have taken tbo plaoe of crude dyestuffa and unreliable package dyeslu all pans of the world. This marvelous suooeis has naturally Inspired more or less worthless imitations, Sold to tbo trade at a leas price, acd which a few un? scrupulous dealers urge upon their cus? tomers. The only way to ensure auo cess iu home dyeing Is to u?o only the Diamond, the Btrocgest, f^steat, and most successful of all dyes. SMUMNG HORSES. The Singular Maunor In Which Indians Obtain Their Mount*. A curious method of obtaining horses is practiced by some of tbe Indian tribes. It is called on tho plains "smoking horses." If a tribe decides to send out a war party, tho first tiling to be thought of Is whether there are enough horses at hand to mount tho warriors. If, as Is oft ?U the case, the horses of tho tribe havo been stolen by oilier Indians, they decido to "smoke" enough horses for present seeds' and to steal a supply from their ene? mies nt the first opportunity. When this decision Is reached, n runner is dispatched to tho nearest, friendly tiibo with the message that on a certain day they will be visited by n number of young men, forming a war party from his trlbo, who require horses. On tho appointed day tho warriors appear, stripped to tho waist. Thoy march silontly to tho village of their friends, seat themselves in a circlo, light their pipes and begin to smoke, at tho sumo time making their wishes known iu a sort of droning chant. Presently there is seen, far out on tho plain, a baud of horsemen, riding gayly caparisoned steeds fully equipped for war. Those horsemen dash up to. Lho villugo ?and wheel about the baud of beggars sit? ting on tho ground, In circles which con? stantly grow smaller, until, nt last, they aro as oloso as thoy can get to tho smokers without riding over them. Then each rid ?or selects tbo man to,whom bo intends to present his pony, and as ho rides around, singing and yelling, ho lashes tho baro buuk of the man ho has selected with tho heavy rawhide whip until the blood Is soon to trickle down. Ii ono of tho siuok ?ers should flinch under tho blows, ho would not got his horse, but would bo sent, home on foot and In disgrnco. At last, when the horsemen think tholr friends have been made to pay enough in suffering for t heir ponies, each dismounts, places tho bridle in t lie hand of tho smok? er hn has selcet cd, and at tho samo tlmo hands him the whip, saying: "Hero, beggar, is a pony for you to rldo, for which I have left my mark." After all the ponies havo been presented ?tho "beggars'' aro invited to a grand feast, ?during which thoy aro treated with ovory consideration by their hosts, who also load them with fund suftlclent for their home? ward journey. The braves depart with full stomachs and smarting backs, but happy in tho possession of their ponies and in -anticipation of the time when their friends -shall bo in distress and shall como to smoke horses with them.?Philadelphia Times. LIQUID AIR. It May Tnkc the Place of Oxs-gen In Sub? marine Navigation. Liquid air may play an important part in submarine navigation. It was believed n few years ago that oxygen would solvo tho problem of furnishing n reasonably wholesome, atmosphere to submarine boats, and a submarine craft equipped with oxy? gen retorts instead of eoinprossed air re? torts remained many hours under wator, while it.'i occupants played cards, uto a hearty meal and did other things that had hitherto boon done only nbovo tho surfaco ?of tho water. The advantage of oxygen over oompressed air lies In tho fact that less of tho former than of tho lattor h needed iu submarine navigation, and tliero fore a less weight of metallic, rotorts has to bo carried. Iu tho seemingly successful experiment tho oxygon Was pormitted to escape In small quantities into the atmos? phere of tho vessel whon the conduct of a small flume Indicated tho presence of too much carbouic acid and consequent dearth of oxygen. Littlo has been heard of oxy? gen equipped submarine craft Blhce tho ex? periment, and now liquid air has arrived, perhaps to furnish exactly tho thing need? ed, rather than a makeshift substitute for a normal atmosphere. Since a London company has been form? ed for the purveying of liquid air, it looks us if tho proper apparatus for handling it had been provided, and suggests tho early employment of tho liquid in submarine navigation. There seems tho possibility of u submarine craft that, shall get rid of its impuro air by somo means yet to be in? vented, and substitute for it tho needed amount of pure air slowly converted from tho liquid to the gaseous form. An ingen? ious but totolly unscientific person bus suggested tho possibility of a submarlno craft safely navigating tho still ocean depths, undisturbed by motion of wind or wnvo, with rotorts of pure liquid air care? fully kept in a freezing mlxturo, but con? stantly permitted to leak tho necessury quantity per minuto to supply tho place of tho vitiated air laden with poisonous oxha latlons from the lungs of tho trow and passengers.
