PreCtT Linen Gown* Have Black
Velvet Tr Imm lute ft —Tasty
Muni Inn.
Khaki letter paper is the latest, and
being; linen, it might be made out of
the very material made into uniforms,
from its appearance. This may not
mean that it is altogether beautiful,
but it means something, and a great
many people will find it indispensable,
says the New York Times.
Khaki linen gowns have a real value,
for the peculiar snuff-brown shade will
not show the effect of wear, and that is
a good thing in a woman’s gown as
well as in soldiers’ clothes. One of
these gowns is very pretty. The skirt
is made quite plainly, three plaits on
each side stitched to below the knee,
and a plait set underneath in the
back. White lace of a heavy kind 1 suit
able to the material is the trimming
of the gown, and 1 a band of this is
around the skirt and edges the bolero
and bands the sleeves. There is a
waist of some sheer white material
worn with the gown, and the bolero
and sleeves are of the khaki. The bo
. lero is short, cut up a little in the
center of the back, fastening at one
side of the front. On either side of
.the opening of the bolero are two
close rows of tiny little brass buttons
which seem to give an appropriate
military note. It is a pretty suit.
Black velvet run into gowns in nar
row ribbons is pretty and much used,
as always. One pretty frock in which
'it appears is also of coarse linen, a
rose or soft red shade, also trimmed
:with white lace and worn, like the
other gown, with a sheer white bodice,
the bolero and sleeves of the linen.
'The white lace is appliqued on in a
number of big splashes around the
;skirt, and the bolero edged and flare
jto the sleeves finished with it. The
bolero may not be a genuine one, but
.there is no other word that will ex
press the making of the bodice. It is
a short bolero showing the white
waist at the neck and some distance
jabove the waist, except in the very
(front. There the two sides of the bo
ilero meet a biblike piece of the red,
(which tapers down to the waist. At
ithe top on either side at these open
ings there are little rosettes of the
baby velvet ribbon. The'belt is a nar-
Irow band of the linen with a row of
ithe ribbon velvet on either edge, and
imore of it is run into the heavy white
lace in the flare of the sleeve and the
thin stock of the white bodice.
A figured lavender muslin gown has
Ithe bodice made in a very pretty way.
|The back is composed from the shoul
der blades down to the waist of tfrree
elghth-inch horizontal tucks. These
do not go entirely across the bodice
and graduate with the bodice down to
,the waist line, the upper tuck being
the longest and 1 the lower the short
jest. The fullness left at the ends of
the tucks is gathered into the under
arm seams of the bodice. The effect
;is very pretty. There is a flufliness,
and at the same time in the center of
the back the muslin lies flat. The
material is fulled into the under arm
seams for the front of the bodice also,
but that is not tucked, the fullness
being desirable over the bust. A half
sailor collar turns away at the neck
;Of this gown, showing a white chemi
sette. This collar in the back falls
•to the first of the tucks. It is edged
•with folds of plain lavender muslin,
.which also form the trimming of the
iskirt. Four or five of these folds are
(put on close to the edge of the skirt,
and more of them a little higher sim
"uTate a pointed overdress.
ANESTHETIC REVELATION.
The Queer Experience of s Now
Orleans Doctor Who Resorted
to Soporific*.
“Some of the queerest experiences
of a doctor are pretty certain to be
.connected with the administration of
anaesthetics,” said a New Orleans
physician, chatting the other day with
a New Orleans Times-Demccrat man,
“and apropos of the subject I recall
a little story that I don’t mind telling,
as the incident occurred long since and
In another city. A dozen years ago
when I was temporarily located in St.
Xouis, I was called one day to the old
SLindell hotel to give chloroform to a
young woman who was about to un
dergo a slight surgical operation to
(remove a morbid growth in the ear.
The patient, as it developed on my ar
rival, had been married only a few
.days before, and was in the city with
her husband on their bridal tour. Al
though quite handsome she was no
longer exactly in her first youth, and
she was very much averse to having her
husband present at the operation.
However, he insisted, and she finally
Agreed that he should stay, but 1 no
ticed that she seemed very nervous and
preoccupied. The operation, as I said
before, was trifling. She took the
chloroform easily, and all went well
until she was just regaining conscious
ness, when she opened her mouth and
out fell a set of false teeth. She had
said nothing about that detail, and the
truth was that she had hoped, poor
woman! to pass through the ordeal
without the fact of her wearing such
things being known to her husband.
But the effect on that Individual was
entirely unexpected. He gave one hor
rified glance and then rushed at the old
surgeon nnd seized him by the throat
*You infamous scoundrel!’ he yelled,
‘you have broken my poor darling’s
Jaw!’ At that stage of affairs I beat a
Tetreat. I never did learn exactly what
the husband thought had happened or
what sort of explanation was offered."

HOW TO ADJUST EYEGLASSES.
Instrnotlons by am Optician Which
Hla Cmstomera Will Not Al
ways Heed.
“Oh, yes,” said the optician ns he fit
ted a pair of glasses on the nose of a
customer. “There is an art in putting
on nose glasses and at least a half of the
people who wear glasses don’t know
how to put them on. The result is that
the moment they begin to perspire a
little or when they shake their heads
or make any unusual movement, off go
the glasses smash on the floor or more
often the sidewalk. Of course we op
ticians don’t kick, for that very thing
gives us a good part of our business.
There is a good, profit in putting in new
lenses. Really the only sensible glasses
to wear are spectacles. They fasten
over the ears and they never fall off
and they don’t get out of adjustment.
They fit on the same place every time
and the eye looks tL rough the center
of the lens as It should look. But most
people think that spcotaclesmake them
look older or something like that and
they insist on nose glasses. Then they
don’t know how to put them owand if
they don’t get them just right the eyes
don’t look through the center of the
lenses, and if there is any disorder of
th 6 vision other than nearsightedness
the improperly adjusted glasses often
do more harm than good, to say. noth
ing of the expense from breakage.
Now, madam, if you feel you must
wear glasses instead of spectacles take
them like this.”
He took the glasses and held them
perfectly level before him, snys the
New York Sun. “Stretch them wide
apart and approach the nose like this.”
He advanced them toward the tip of the
nose; “now raise them up so.” Still
holding the glasses so that the springs
stretched wide over the nose he ad
vanced them upward until the upper
points of the clips were directly under
the eyebrows. “Now let go,” said he.
The glasses were on firm. “Shake your
headi,” said- he. The customer shook
her head. The glasses wiggled, but did
not fall off.
“You see,” said the optician, “you
can’t shake them off. They sit perfect
ly and just fit the eye. You don’t want
anything better than that, do you?
Now try putting them on yourself.”
The customer pat them off and at
tempted to put them back. She got
them on askew.
“No! no! no!” said the optician,
“that’s all wrong,” and he showed her
over again how it should be done. It
took six times trying before the cus
tomer mastered the knack and went
away happy.
“She’ll be back In a month,” said the
optician, “wanting one or two new
lenses to replace her broken ones. Now
I’ve shown her exactly how to put them
on, but she’ll get careless after awhile
and will forget all about It. I can nl
wnya tell about that by the way they
catch on to the knack of adjusting
them when they first put them on.
People who have to wear glasses at all
should wear spectacles. But if they
will wear nose clips they must learn
how to adjust them or they’ll ruin
their eyes and break their pockets at
the same time. Women are no worse
than men in that. I’ve got.one custom
er who paid, me last year SSO for new
lenses. That’s about one dollar a week,
and I can’t get him to wear spectacles
yet.”
SPAIN’S COLONY IN AFRICA.
She Is Try-las cl Last to Tarn (he nio
de Oro Province to Good
Account.
Now that Spain has lost all her large
colonies, she is doing all she can and
encouraging every effort on the part of
her people to develop the small colo
nial possessions still remaining to her,
particularly in Africa, says the New
York Sun. Spain’s largest possession
in Africa is the district of Rio de Oro,
south of Morocco. It fronts on the At
lantic between Capes Bojador and
Blanco for about 500 miles, and ex
tends Inland from 420 miles in the
north to 000 miles in the south. This
territory is about one-twelfth as large
as the United States, but inland it is
mostly sand, nnd development is pos
sible on an important scale only in the
coast regions, unless minerals may be
found, in the interior.
Spain’s ambition is to make the most
of the fertile strip along the coast,
developing plantations to supply Spain
with a variety of tropical products and
establishing trading posts for goods of
Spanish origin, which may be ex
changed with the natives for their gold
dust and ostrich feathers. Induce
ments, therefore, are being offered to
a considerable number of farmers and
traders to go to this new region nnd
make It worth something to the home
country.
A mineral survey of the region isnow
under way. It is quite certain that in
some parts considerable gold, may be
obtained, particularly along the Rio
de Oro. The Spaniards will also en
deavor, unless France too strenuously
opposes the idea, to divert some of the
trade from Timbuctoo to their port on
the coast and thus establish direct
trade relations with the fertile Sou
dan. Up to this time Spain had en
tirely neglected this great possession
in Africa and it is scarcely probable
that its development would now have
been undertaken if Spain still had.her
former large colonial interests to ab
sorb her attention.
“Wheeler is an ingenious sort of a
fellow.” “What’s his latest?” “He
took a spin out in the country last even

discovered he had forgotten to take
his bicycle lamp.” “Yes." “Well, he
dismounted, climbed over into a field
and filled his empty flask with light
ning bugs and tied the bottle on to the
frontof his wheel.”—lndianapolis Jour
nal.
At the battle of Trafalgar, a sailor
found kneeling by his gun. as his ship
was about to engage the enemy, was
asked by the first lieutenant if he was
afraid. “Afraid!” answered Jack, with
an expression of the utmost disdain;
“no, your honor; I’m only praying that
the enemy’* shot may be distributed
like the prize money—the greatest part
among the officers.”—San Francisco
Ar/ronaut.

' OFFICER’S RANK INDICATED.
Hew to Tell Hl* Standing In Ike Mili
tia by tbe Marking on Hl*
Uniform.
While the procession in honor of
Admiral Dewey was moving up Mich
igan avenue a party that was seated
in a balcony of a well-known citizen’s
house had the conversation turned
on the rank of officers and how to
tell it in each case. An ex-soldier of
the civil war, who as an officer won
distinction In that war, was of the
party, and he was asked to explain
what this, that or the other marking
on the uniforms mean, says a Chicago
paper.
“To begin with,” he said, “an officer
. may be distinguished by his shoulder
straps and the marking within them
will tell you what his rank is. A gen
eral has an eagle between two stars;
lieutenant general, one large star,
flanked by two smaller ones; major
general, two stars; brigadier general,
one star; colonel, a silver eagle;
lieutenant colonel, two silver oak
leaves; major, two golden oak leaves;
1 captain, two bars at cither end of the
shoulderstrap; first lieutenant, a sin
gle bar at either end of the shoulder
strap; second lieutenant, the .plain
; shoulderstrap without marking.
“Then come the noncommissioned
• officers, or the ‘noncoms,’ as they are
, generally termed. Their rank is dis
tinguished by the chevrons on t.heir
sleeves, as follows: Sergeant major of
n regiment, three bars and an arc of
three bars; regimental or battalion
quartermaster sergeant, three bars
and a tie of three bars; commisary
sergeant, three bang and a crescent;
1 hospital steward, three bars and an
I are of one bar, inclosing a red cross;
company quartermaster sergeant,
three bars aud a tie of one bar; ser
geant, three bars; corporal, two bars.
“The different branches of the serv
ice to which the men belong are shown
' by the insignia on the officers’ he*d
gear and collars and by the relieving
I colors of their uniforms. The artillery
is red, which 1b the case of the officers
i shows in the field of the shoulder
■ straps. In the stripe on the trousers
; and the lining of the cloak; their in
' signia is the crossed cannons; the cav
alry is yellow, and their insignia the
crossed swords; the infantry white,
the insignia the crossed rifles; the
engineers red, the insignia the castle:
, the signal corps orange, the insignia
the crossed flags, and the medical corps
green, the insignia the Mahesecross.
“Chaplains wear shoulder straps
showingacross on a black field. These
markings and insignia refer only to
1 what- is known as the line. In the
’ staff the prevailing color Is dark blue.
' no stripes arc worn on the trousers
i and the field of the shoulderstraps is
' dark blue. The departments to which
the various staff officers belong are
' indicated by the markings on the col
lars of their coats. In addition to these
various means of distinguishing offi-
I cers, which apply principally to their
' undress uniforms, there are differences
in the arrangement of the buttons on
i their coats, the braiding on their
sleeves and the style of tlieir heAdgear
■ and the color and number of plumes
• worn upon them.”

; MOUNTAIN THAT IS A MIRROR
An African Phenomenon That Sur
prised and Greatly Interested
Catholic Mlxxionarie*.
i
A few months ago some Catholic mis
sionaries made a journey in Katanga.
1 a large district which contains many
of the upper waters of the Congo. One
day they approached a mountain
’ which, they later learned, was ex
tremely rich in iron ore. In fact, the
1 travelers say the mountain is little else
than a huge block of iron from summit
to base. The natives call the moun
-1 tain Ivabwe-Marwi.
The missionaries, says a foreign ex
change. spent several days in the neigh
. borliood, nnd each evening, they say.
the mountain was illumined in a won
derful manner under the influence of
the rays of the setting sun- The upper
part of it seemed to be an Immense
reflector launching far out into the
plain the beams of light revived from
1 the “Star of Day.”
One evening, after a day of rain that
had washed all the dust from the
mountain side, the brilliancy of the
reflection was greater than usual, and
Father Ter Maat decided to seek the
exact cause of this phenomenon. So
at sunrise next morning he began the
i difficult task of scaling the steep slope
of this mountain of iron. He finally
reached the highest peak, C,BSB feet
'■ above the sea level, and there he found
i a great rock whose side, turned toward
the western sun, was as polished and
bright as a mirror and shone like bur
nished steel. It seemed to be a block of
almost pure metal. This shining sur
■ face contains several hundred square
1 feet, and fully explains the remark
able refraction of the solnr rays. The
• only explanation of the increased bril
liancy on that particular day is that
i the rain washed away all particles that
bedimmed the polished surface and left
It a fine natural mirror where the fall
ing beams of light were launched again
far out over the plain with dazzling
effect.
A Good Remedy.
Customer (angrily)—Well, I have
brought back the drug you said would
make me thin. I’ve gained ten pounds
on it in two weeks.
Druggist—Ah, you see, that estab
i lishes the fact that these things often
work by contraries. Now, let me sell
you a bottle of this gold medul flesh

SEEKING THE BEST.
Tka Secret of Helpfmlne/M Liu In
Diantu Oat tka Goad In
Everybody.
Miss Electra was a little woman who
had lived for 50 years in a tidy white
'house in the center of the village, di
viding her time between her simple
housekeeping and kind deeds. Her
manners were so gentle that strong
minded people said they “did wish
Miss Electra had a little more force
of character;” but many people never
made any' such critical remark, says
'Youth’s Companion.
) “X tell you,” said the minister to his
wife, “I never knew a woman who
shut heT eyes so tight to the bad in
people, and yet would see all the good
(that is in them, and draw it out,
too.”
j There was something soothing about
the atmosphere of Miss Electra’s
.house.
“It’s the best place to cool down in
that I know of,” said Madge Hastings,
a hot-headed schoolgirl. “When I get
lutterly disgusted with myself and ev
erybody else, I go and see Miss Elec
tra. She magnifies the little good
there is in me until I feel that I must
justify her confidence in me.”
, When John K , a common drunk
ard, signed the pledge and kept it, ho
said:
, “It was Miss Electra who did it.
Other folks just irritated me. But
'Miss Electra got hold of the little
good there was in me and multiplied
it about 50 times.”
1 When some one asked Miss Electra
the secret of her helpfulness, she said,
simply:
“Why, I don’t know that there is
,any secret about it. I just try to
draw out the best there is in them,
and make the best of what there is,
that’s all.”

One Bird at home is Worth
Two in the Woods—
ho is one home testimonial from a neighbor of
yours worth hundreds of testimonials from persons
far away, of which you know nothing of their
truthfulness. Mr. John W. Conrad of Kirk’s Mill?,
Pa.. says, in reference to Feldser’s Liniment, that
it is one of the best things he ever got hold of for
rheumatism if you use it in time, and for other
pains. Robt It McCrery of Cllen Roy, Pa., says:
I would advise everybody to try it.

183]. THE SUN. 1900.
BALTIMORE, MD.
The Paper of the People, for the People
and with the People.
Honest in Motive.
Fearless in Expression.
Sound in Principle.
A newspaper is an educator; there are all kind*
of educators, but the man who spends money
judiciously and liberally is better able to impart
his knowledge than the man who has little or
nothing to spend.
The Sun is the highest type of a newspaper.
The Sun’s reports from all parts of the United
States are unsurpassed.
The Sun’s Cable Service is the finest known;
the troubles in the Philippines and in South Africa
demand competent correspondents and vast ex
penditure of money and labor in getting the news.
When you get The Sun you get news and intelli
gent presentation of facts with it, as well as care
fully prepared articles of editorial writers of high
est standing. When you read a daily paper,
whose principal recommendation is its cheapness,
you get the dregs—generally very poor dreg* at
that.
