A MASOUFRADE.
In a pleasant breakfast-room a pale and
•vearied-UokinR lady was busied about
household affairs, whilst a young girl, seat
ad in a doorway opening upon a garden at
the end of the house, was seeding raisins.
The reason was not yet fuirly past winter,
but the sun shone with spring-like warmth
and brightntss, and, therefore, the door
stood ope-".
"Mamma!" said the girl, coaxingly, as
she lifted a sweot, fair face, "won't you let
me ro to the rust masquerade party? You
know Mrs. Dabney spoke of giving one in
case of this of Mrs. Lee's proving a success,
as I suppose it has."
"I don't know, Minna," answered the
mother, hesitatingly. "If yon go it must
be in some character requiring a very sim
ple and inexpensive costume. Ada's dress
last night cost more than I had had an idea
of."
"Oh, anything will do for me, to that
only I o*n go. I will be a peasant girl, or
even a pi.tin, black-robed nun, or—*
"You a nun, you laughing spirit!" cried a
dashing and stylish-looking f-irl, who at
that moment familiarly ascended the steps,
her face all aglow under her gipsy hat.
"What has put that pious notion into your
venenble head?"
"We were talking of the party last night.
How did you enjoy it?'
"Bully!" (Funny Winst.m, it must be
confessed, was a little given to slang.)
"What an inspiration that was of Mrs. Lee
to have a variety in our usual hnmdrnra
parties! lieally, the whole town owe* heri
vote of thanks. The novelty was delight
ful, whatsoever some of the characters and
costumes may have beer. Bnt then others
were splendid, and the whole was a decided
success."
Who was the belle?" inquired Mrs Gray,
with pleased look, as though she antici
pate tLe answer.
"Ada, of coarse! I donbt whether the
real 'Lady of the Lake' ever excited mow
admiration than did her representative 1 ist
night and as for her devoted knight, Su
Walter E»le gh. he *ar simply 6uperb!"
"Sir Waltfr Raleigh! Who whb he?"
"Ib it possible you don't know? Hasn't
Ada told you?'*
"it was ne.irlv 3 when she cime home,
and she was both too tired and too exo ted
to talk, tut I suppose, Finny, your Sit
Walter was Mr. Philip Aylesbury?"
"My S:r Walter? J^o, indeed nobody
'after Lst night, will presume to dispute his
possession with Ada. And what a con
quest! Youug, rich, handsome and talent
ed, and with every mother and daughter in
ma1 entering to si cure him. But,'
looking around, "where is Ada now?"
"We have not awakened her. I thought
best to let her sleep off her fatigue," Mrs,
Gray saii. 1
"As'eep until eleven! Aitfl I also went
through it ail, have been up iinoe tis'ht.
"But tkenyou wern'tthe btlleyou know,"
said Miuna l:i\glung.
"Not the first, though I tried for it. Ada
came in a shoulder aLe id cf me and as to
poor Laura Cheney and the rest, they were
nowhere."
"Don't be slangy, inny."
"Can't help it Aunt Mary, it's my nature.
Ah, here comes my 1 uiy, at last, looking as
though the world held nothing worthy her
acoeptanoe—unless it may be the html of a
o-rUin gallant Light, who kshall be name
less."
The girl who now entered was a tall, fair
blonde, with regular fe .tares and a pro
fusion of ^oldoa hair hanging in looso dis
order abou her face and neck.
She wore an untidy morning wrapper,
frayed about the edges, and her delicate
feet were thrnst into a pair of old velvet
slippers, ran down at toe heeL
Her faoe wore an expression of oold in
ditfererci ond discontent.
"What a transformationI" cried Fanny,
liughmgly. "Why, Ada, could Sir Walter
leiyb see you now, ha would scarcely
recogmze his lovely Lady Jine."
"You did not expect to Hnd me at break
fa«t in ball costume?" said A ia, coldly.
"Not exactly but Minna here looks as
s*eet and pretty iu her print dre a and
white, fii'.lea apron, as thoi-gh she were
dr-ssed iora party and you might look the
6amo."
"If there was any one to dress for. Of
course I don't mind mamma and Minna. Is
my brtakfust ready, mother?"
Mrs. Gray hastened to plaoe before her
daughter the breakfast which bad all the
morning occupied her attention. Their
servant had but the day previous left them,
and at present everything devolved upon
herself and Minna.
Ada surveyed the viands discontentedly,
These rolls are cold, and tha toast
browned to a crisp. Then the ooffee is all
muddy. Can't you make me a cup of tea,
mamma, and let me have a couple of eggs
in place of this broiled ham?"
"Make the tea yourself, Ada," said Min
na, locking np from her work, "and I will
boil the ecgs. Mamma has enough on her
hands already, witLjSarabJaway. You ought
to remember that," she added, in a lower
tone,
When I require your advice I will ask
itl" replied the elder sister, sharply. "How
oppressive the heat of the fire is this warm
morning!" she continued, as she moved
her seat close to the open door, looking up
on the si ie garden.
"Ada," saii Finny, "do tell me how yon
cimeto recognize Mr. Aylesbury, tnrough
bis ci«suise, last night! Every" one but
yourself -ras c?r ain that iul-t was he."
"Oh, I could not mistake the carriage of
his head! And his feet—no one in town
has suoh a slender, arcLiug instep. Of
course, I did no.t tell hicu so, but we laid a
wager that I would recognize him through
anyfli--gnse, "said Ada, smilingly.
"Then you must look sharp at Mrs. Dab
ney'p, next week, as that v, ill be the second
and last of this sens n's macqnerade parties.
Pity tbat winter couldn't last longer, though
it has really exoanded into spring. And,
by-the- by, Aunt Hirv, Minna is to go to
this party of Mrs. Dibney's. It was a
shame that 6he should not have gone last
nisbt."
"Ada is the elder," said Mrs. Gray, half
deprecatingly, "and I could not afford two
expensive costumes."
"Ot., ves, I Know all about that! But
Minna old enough to have rights of her
own," said the impetuous Fanny.
"Perhaps we best understand onr own
affairs sngeested Adi in ber coldest tone.
"Oh, dear!" she suddenly exchimed, as the
hnr-?h n^tes of a hand-orgm snunded im
mediately without the do"r. There is that
Italian nuipance again! Do, mamma, send
limaway! What impudence to intrude
upon »ne's promises in this manner!"
"Poor man! he is a stranger in a strange
land," said Minna, softly, as she surveyed
the gray-haired and stooping figure whioh
now stood ftnmniy in front of the door,
grinding harsh dlaoord from his instm
ment.
"He' ought to have remained In his own
oountry. We have too many foreign vaga
bonds here and I don't see what they come
for, except to make themselves nuisanc
es."
"Do hush, Ada! He hears you, and hi"
feelings vill he hurt," remonstrated Min
na.
"Ob, he can't cpeak English well enough
to understand!" Fanny said. "I'll try
him."
From his answers in very broken Eng
lish, it appeared that his family were all
dead—rnvd one little grand-daughter
rai"' Bunoa. Povdrty, and the hope of
getting econgh t? support htjise in his
old age, had brought Lira to this country.
So soon as he c^uld ike money enough,
he wsuld send for his little Bianc*.
Poor man!" stid Finny. "I wish we
oould do something to help him. But I
haven't a penny with me," searohing her
pocket "Ada, won't you lend me a few
for the present?"
"No! I have nothing to bestow npon
tramps. I don't believe he's telling the
truth. Such people can make up any piti
lul story to impose upon o.hera."
"But you oan see for yourself that he is
old and feeble," said Minna. "I think, too,
that he must bo hungry. Maxima, mayn't
I off him some breakfast?"
'J be itinerant with trembling hand, ac
cepted the I'ffsred refreshment— drank the
ooffee, and stowed away the bread and meat
in his wallet.
Ad-, meanwhile, was grumbling over her
own breakfast, and hoping tbat the next
time she came down tired and thirsty, after
being up all night, her mother would at
lM«t give her a cup of tea fit to drink.
Tears stood in Mrs. Gray's eyes, but she
said no Iking.
Ada was her idol, and she made a slave of
herself to this beautiful and imperious
daughter, wnile Miuna's self-sacrificing
sweetness and gentleness, though it took
half the burden off the mother's Bhoulders,
wm looked upon as merely a matter of
oouwe,
The organ-grinder, hmng drank bis oof
fee, laborious y lifted bis instrument upon
bis baok, and, supporting himself with a
stout stick prepared to leave. Minna sprang
down the steps.
"I will open the gate for you," she said
kindly.
And as he passed out, Rhe slipped into
his hand a bright silver quarter,
"Take this, please," she said, with a
blush.
He turned It over in his hand and hesitat
ed. There was something strangely earn
est in the look of the dark eyes peering
from beneath the white bushy brows in the
swarthy face.
Did he guess the truth—that that silver
piece was the whole of her present Btore of
pocket-money?
As he passed out at the gate, she looked
up into his faoe with a lovely expression of
sympathy and kindness.
"Good-bye! I hope your little Bianoa
will soon be with you," she said, gen
tly.
He lifted his hat almost reverent]
"God bless yon, lady!"
Then, as she closed the gate, he tramped
slowly down the street, turned the next cor
ner, and entered the door of a lawyer's of
floe.
Here, lightly swinging his instrument to
the gronnd, he threw off a white wig and
beard, with a corresponding pair of bushy
eyebrows, washed away from his cheeks
some artificial tan and wrinkles, and drew
himself erect—a handsome, dirk-compltx
ioned young man of four-and-twenty.
A gentleman, entering from the next room,
looked at him with a questionable smile.
"Well," be said briefly—"lost or won?"
"Both," was the moody answer.
"What has happened? She did not dis
cover you and take mortal offense, did
she?"
"No and yet she might score easily have
discovered my identity than I hers, under
t&e cirsumstances
"What! in masquerade again!"
"Oaiof masquerade. Esought I wor
shipped a goddess, and find her of day—
couuuonts: clay."
"Ah, I understand! You have found out
what I, who reside here and know some
thing of the family, though .seeing your in
fatrutioD did not dare hint You would
never have believed it. Did you see that
littU dar ing Minna?"
"B it i n that trling little Minna I should
straightway lose all my faith in womankind.
See here'! "he added, holding up a bright
silwr piece. "I shall keep this as a tils
man, to remind me that there is in reility
truth and goodness and unselfishness among
women."
Mr. Aylesbury did not go to Mrs. Dab
ney's masquerade party. Something bad
unexpectedly i led him home. And when,
a few months after, he repe itad his visit to
the li tle town, people observed that Ms at
tentions seemed transferred from MiiS
Gray to her younger sister.
Itl time it became known that they were
engaged and whi e some wondered bow he
could have relinquished that splendid Ada,
whom he could certainly Lave won for tho
asking, there were others who said he had
made a wiser ehoica.
Neither of the girls understood the mat
ter until one day, some time after his mar
riage, Mr. Aylesbury showed to the sweet
young wife seated upon his knee a bright
n jw coin.
"Well, "said she, "what of it? Does any
special interest attaoh to it beyond its pecu
niary value?"
Certainly there does! Why, it is a talis
man which has brought me what I priza
beond all else on earth."
"And what o=m that be?"
"I'oureelf cf course, you little fgno
ramus! Do you reuie uber when you gave
this to an rid Italian organ grinder at yo„i
ga:den-gste?
She colored.
"How do you konw?"
"How? Why, becinse I was myself thi,t
ancient musician."
"You Philip?" with big eyes, and the
coir.r deeoenijg over neck and cheek.
He laughed, and then he told her all about
it.
"I took your gift, darling, but gave you a
full exchange. Ia th*t moment, I do be
lieve, my heart went out to you &9 it had
never dune to any other woman."
Sue hid her face on his shoulder. A mo
ment after she looked up with, half tearful
eyes.
"Dear, promise me one thing—that you
will never let Ada know."
"Certainly not! She would never forgivs
that innocent little masquerade, ever
hough it was she who defied me to deceive
her bv r.ny disguise I choose to assume
No, she shall Eever suspect that the poor,
ragged old organ-grinder, to whom she re
fused a penny was Sir AValter Eileigh and
on my part, I shall try, for your sake, to
think that, it was not my exquisite 'Lady of
the Lake' whom I that morning beheld in
slatternly dress, rude to her mother, selfish
to—"
But here Minna placed her hand over he
lips, and he stopped speaking to kiss it.
A. Monster Locomotive.
The new sixty-ton engine of the Penn
sylvania railroad company has been chris
tened "Jumbo" by the employers of tin
corporation. This mammoth in the way of
merchani-m weighs over sixty tons, and
fifteen tons heavier th a class "K" en
gine. the largest in use heretofore. It has
a live feet driving wheel, with a thirty
three-inch truck under the smokes'ack. In
the rear of the drivers there is one six
wheel swivel tmck which will enable tie
engine to turn a sharp curve. The oylind
's er 17x24.the same size as is used on class
"K" engines. The water tank, which sur
rounds the fire-box, has a capici'y of 2,00
gallons. The engine is constructed to rm
in either direct'on, and has pilots at bttb
ends, thus doing away with the necessity of
a turn-table. The iron horse is in one
solid frame, and wbi'e shorter than olher
engines is three feet higher. Hard or 10ft
coal may be used, and the fire-box is eight
fe:t deep. The engine virtually reverses
tsfclf, this movemeu' being obta:ned byth6
use of hot water ins'ead of steam, rhe
inj -ctor checks enter the boiler behind the
•iome, thus Drotecting the pipe in case of
accident. "Jumbo" made the ran from
Altoona io this city, drawing fifteen freight
cars, some parts of the trip being mace at
the rate of a mile in 59 seconds. The en
sine is the invention of
Theodcre N. Ely, superintendent of Mo
tive power and machinery of the Pennsyl
vania company, and was constructed at Al
toona.
Emigration from Ireland.

A Virginia Stoiy,
The R»v. Mr. Canington, of Gbarlotta
county, Va., belonged to one of tho old
families, was an eloquent preacher and Mni
verejally populor. He was careless about the
management of his large estate, while hi«
brother Paul was noted for bis thrift and
industry. The preacher usually bongbt hb
supplies of butter from Paul. One Sunday
morning after breakfast, and just as tne rev
erend gentleman was starting for church
he dispatched his servant over to his broth
er's house for a fresh fupply of butter tha:
would be needed at the Sunday dinner.
The negro was told to hurry back, and re
port the success of his mission. The
preacher was in the midst of his sreroon,
and eloquently related what Matthew, Mark,
Luke and John hiid said in relation to hie
text. Just as the breathless negro had ar
rived at tbe church and had meekly step
ped in to take a seat, the Rev. Mr. Carring-
JUDUE BROWN, OF GEORGIA.
Captain Henry's misadventure reoalls a
story which went the round twenty-five or
thirty-five years ago, and is old enough to
be new. It illustrates the embarrassment
which a glass too muoh sometimes occa
sions the best of men. There lived in Geor
gia, says Col. Bradbury, whom Burton
credils with the narrative, a circuit judt'eby
the name of Brown, a man of ability, of in
flexible integrity and beloved and respected
by all the legal profession. But he had one
fault. His social qualities would lead him,
despite his judgment, into occasional ex
cesses. In traveling the oircuit, it was his
habit, the night before opening court, to
get "comfortably corned." If he oouldn't
succeed while operating on bis own hook,
the members of the bar would gtnerally
turn in and help him.
It was in the spring of the year taking'
his wife in the old fashioned carry-nil, tho
judge iurneved some forty miles and
reached a village where a court was to be
opened tbe next day. He took quarters
with a relation of his better half, by whom
the presenoe of an official dignitary was
comi lered a high honor. After supper he
strolled over to the only tavern in town,
where he found many old friends oolleo'.ed
to the plaoe. on impoitaat professional busi
ness, and who "were properly glad to meet
him.
Gentleman," said the judge, "tis quite a
long time since we have enj yed a glass to
gether—let us take a drink all around. Of
eourse, Sterriti (addressiug the landlord),
you have better liquor than you had the
last time we were here the stuff you had
then as not fit to give to a do?."
Sterritt, who had charge of the houso, pre
tended that everything was right, and so
they went to work. It is unnecessary to
enlarge upon a drinking bont in a coun'rv
tavern—it will answer our purpose to state
that somewhere in the region of midnight
the judge wended his very devious way to
wards his temporary home. About the
time he whs leaving, however, some young
er bari«ters, fond cf a "practical," and not
much afraid of the bench, transferred al
the s lver spoons of Stenitt to the Judge's
coat-pocket
It was eight o'clock Monday mornina
when the judge ros^. Having indulged in
the process of ablution and wbstertion, and
irtaken of a cheerful and refreshing break
fast, he went to his room to prepare him
se for the duties of the day.
"Well, Polly," be said to his wife, "I ferl
much tetter than I expected to feel after
that frolio ol last night"
"Ah, judge," said she reproachfully, "you
are gettinc too old—you ought to leave off
that business."
"Ah, Polly, what's the use of talking?" It
was at this prf otse moment that the judge,
having put on his overcoat, was proceeding,
i.ccoroing to his custom, to give his wife a
parting kis, that he happened, in thrustins
his hands into his pocket, to lay hold of
Sterritt's spoons. He jerked them out.
With an expression of horror, he ex
claimed:
"My God, Polly!"
"What on earth's tho matter, judge?"
"Just look at those spoons!"
"Dear me, where d'ye get them?"
"Get them! Don't you see the initials on
them?" extending them toward her. "I
6tolethem!"
"Stole tbem. judge?"
"Yes, stole them!"
"My dear husband, it oan't be possible!
From whom?"
"From Sterritt, over there his name is
on them."
"Good heavens, how could it happen?"
"I know very wtll, Polly. I was very
drunk when I came home, wasn't I?"
"Why, judge, you know your old habit
vhen you get among those lawyers."
"But I was very drunk?"
"Yes, you was."
"Was I remarkably drunk when I got
home. Mis Brown?"
"Yes, judge, drunk as a fool, and forty
times as stnpid."
"I thoueht so," Baid tho jndge, dropping
in a chair in extreme despondence. "I
knew it would come to that, at last. I have
always thought that something bad would
happen to me— that I should do something
very wrong—kill somebody in a moment of
pission, perhaps—but I never imagined
could be mean enough to be guilty of de
liberate larceny!"
"Bat there may be some mistake,
Judge."
"No mistake, Pcliy. I know very well
how it all came about. That fellow, Ster
ritt, keeps the meanest sort of liquor, and
always did—liquor mean enouch to mike a
man do any soit of a mean thing. I have
ilways said it was mean enough to make a
man steal, and now I have a ^radical illus
tration of the fact!" and the poor old man
burst into tears.
"Don't be a child," said his wife, wiping
away the tears "go like a man over to Ster
ritt, tell him it was a little bit of a froiic.
Pass it off as a joke—go and open court,
and no one will ever think of it again."
A little of the soothing system operated
upon the judge, as such ihings usually do.
His extreme mortification was finally suo
dued, and over to Sterritt's he went with a
tolera1 le face. Of course, he had but lit
tle cifficulty in settling with tiim—for aside
from tbe fact that the judge's integrity was
unquestionable, Steiritt had an inkling of
the joke that had been played. The n e
took his seat in court but it was observed
that he waB subdued and melancholy, and
that his mind frequently wandered" from
the business before him. There was a laok
of the sense and intelligence that usually
characterized his preceedi^gs.
Several days passed and the business of
•he court was drawing to a close, when on9
morning a tough citizen was arraigned on a
charge, of stealing. After the C^eiK
had read the indictment to him he pat the
question:
"Guilty or not guilty?"
"Guilty, but drunk," answered]the pris
oner.
"What's that plea?" exclaimed the judge,
who was half dozing on the ohair.
"He pleads guilty, butsayB me wasarumt,"
replied the clerk.
"What's the charge against the man?"
"He is indicted for grand larceny."
"What's the case?"
"M »y it please your honor," said the pros
ecuting attorney, "the man is regularly in
dicted for stealing a large sum from the
Columbus hotel."
"He is, hej and he pleads—"
"He pleads guilty, but drunk!"
The judge is now fully aroused.
"Guilty, but drunk! That is a most ex
traordinary plea. Young man, yon are cer
tain you were drunk?"
"Yes, sir."
"Where did you get your Honor?"
"At Sterritt's.*
"Did you get none nowhere else?"
"Not a drop, sir?"
"You got drunk on bis liquor, and after
wards stole'his money?"
"Yes, sir."
"Mr, Proseouotr," said the judee, "do
me the favor to enter the nolle prosequi in
that man's oase. That liquor of Sterritt's
is mean enough to make a man do anything
dirty. The court got drunk on it the other
day and stol all of Sterritt's spoons! Re
lease the prisoner, Mr. Sheriff I adjourn
the court."
Capt. Henry has the advantage of the
judge. Though drunk, he was not guilty.
Spanish Sonnet on Longfellow*
The following is a literal translation into
Eng ish prose uf a sonnet to Longfellow
written in Spanish by Senor E. Sanches de
Fuentes, a well-known Dubanpoet "Long
fellow, farewell! thy cold hand will never
again wake the cords of thy sublime lyre.
If the American people wefp for tuee.
E irope admires thee, the new Pindar, and
across the Atlantio consecrates a laurel to
thee, Master to-day when thy song is hushed
forever. Does this content thy soul, most
noble and glowing? Do marbles, bronzes,
and world's grieving suffice its longings?
Impossible! for of the Father Almighty tby
soul humbly implores forgivnes-i, and to
soar on thy wings of light to realms above."
Victoria as a Match Muker.
The marriage of the Duke of Albany is
the eighth alliance which the queen has ar
ranged for her own household, and one of
tho least oonspicmus of the series. Tho
most brilliant matches have been the first
two and the fourth in order—the princess
royal and the crown prince of Prussia the
prinoe of Wales and the king of Denmark's
eldest daughter, and the duke of Edinburg
and the czar's only daughter. The prin-
ton, already considerably warmed up, said 1 ceas Alice, the only one of tho queens
in thundering tones: "And what did Paul i children who is not lmng, was married to
say?" The negro, thinking the question, Prinoe Louis of Hesse-Darmstadt the
addressed to him, replied in the hearing of
the whole congregation, "Marse Paul says
as how you can't get any more butter 'till
you've paid for dat you got last week."

Philadelphia Ledger.
The hundreds of persons who daily sail
for letters nt the Philadelphia Post-tffice
are all familiar with the form and features
of Mr. James A. McMullin, the old and expe
rienced "General Deliverv Clerk." For over
six years the head nnd face of Mr. McMul
lin have constituted a sort of portrait iu
front of the post-offioe, the frame of which
is the edge of the little window or hole, cut
through for the delivery of letters and be
hind which he stands or sits constantly
when on duty. Mr. McMullin resides at
No. 1427 South Seventh street, and he has
served in the post-ofiLe under Postmasters
Snowden, Hartranft and Huidekoper.
His position is not a particulatly pleasant
one from the fact that during
the iDclement season of the year he has
to face all the cold draughts cf air tbat rush
through the letter delivery window, and
most of his bodily pains and aches are at
tributed to tbi-f cause. On a recent occas
ion while securing some postage stmips
from Mr. McMullin, I remarked: "Your
position here is a bad one if yon are subject
to rheumatism," and he replied: "Well, I
am subject to rheumatism, and have been
troubled with it on aud off for some years.
I think I caught it at this window, and the
oold air that comes in tbi-j window always
aggravates it. I hive suffered considerably
with that comp'aintin my hip and side, but
I oan always obtain relief now by using
'St. Jacobs Oil.' Some little time ego I
had a very painful attack, and it lasted
nearly two weeks without cessation at
times it tronbled me bo muoh that I could
not remain on duty. I rubbed
myself with all kinds of lotions eto but
they did no good. I happened, however, to
read som? aricle in the Public Ledger about
St Jacf.bs Oil, wherein different cases were
cited where the remedy bad ffected cures
and given great ie ief, and made some in
quiries and found those instances were
well substantiated. Then I determined to
try St. Jacobs Oil, and obtaining a bottle, I
commenced using it. I experienced some
relief at once and tcfore I had used up the
contetts of that little bottle my pain had
all left me, and now I do not experience any
trouble at all. I »m satibfie i that St. Ja
cobs Oil is the best rheumatic liniment
that can be obtained, and if my rheumatic
pains occur again I shall, of course, full
baok on that remedy."
After some further conversation, Mr. Mc
Mullerc remarked, "St Jacobs Oil seems to
be a good thing for other affections besides
rheumatism, for my exposure here often
gives me a sore throat or stiff neck, and the
last time I had the latter. I rubbed my neck
several times with tbe Oil and it cured me.
Since I have been u^ing St. Jacobs Oil, I
have talked about :t on several occasion?,
and have found it has done good in a num
ber of cases. I ni-ih I had heard about the
Oil sooner than I did."

HOUSE AND FARM. I
A Few Fiuliion Notes,
The agreeable features of summer styles
ate the prevalence of short, round skirts, the
absence of bustles, the variety in shapes cf
bats and bonnets, in costumes and colon--.
The wearing of a jacket bodioe of cash
mere, novelty Bilk or velvet with anv kind
of a skirt is an excellent plan for utilizing
tbe skirts of dresses, the corsjges of wnkb
have been worn oat.
Velvet throatlets are muoh worn and will
probably continue in vogue as long a-i the
prinoe&B of Wales, who revived the fash
ion, remains along-necked, slender woman.
Fat wome'i with short necks cunnol
adopt this fashion.
Ribbons are much used fort^e ncck, with
plain linen collais, and whitj mull neck
tits are passee. The ribbons are from one
to two inches wide, and are parsed around
the neck inside the dress collar and out
side of tbe linen collar. They aro then tied
in a very large bow of two long 1 op and
two longer ends. Grosgrain moire nnd sat
in ribbons are used, and the stylish colors
are terra.cotta, porcelain bins, and dark
oardinal.
A very pretty way to oover an old-fash
ioned square stand (and almost every home
has rf# least one) is to put over the
smoothly a flue pioce of scirletor,blue sb
lisia or cambric over this put a cover of
any pretty epen work, luce or muhlm.
Thou put n piece ol tho siliua about thi
teen inches deep around it oover this a! o
viith the lace the ifltctis txcejknt, and in
this way a useful article of furuituro is re
deemed from posi ive ugliness and deform
ity. If the legs ate scratcaed are marred, a
ooat or two of varnish will make them all
right.
The correct thing with a lady's fashion
able spring suit, wlich looks of the time
ofthe"Vioar of Waki field" at leabt, is to
carry an ancient bead bag or re ioule newly
done up with peacock or red s:uin top aiid
silk drawing strings, depending from the
arm, not carried in Lhe hand, which is en
tirely too modern and commonp ace.
Kate Field in our Continent.l says:—It
is no use to ask, "what is the fashion?"
An\ thing, every thintr is the fashion, or
rather fashion has yielded her sceptre to
the love of the p:e:urcsque, the beai.tiful,
the tit. the becoming. Women must exer
c'se taste and judgement now in the selec
tion of their garments and the matt rials of
which they are made, for, lake up what
magazine or journal you may, and their
name is legion, there are so many outs and
plates, patterns and models, you will be
dazed the search after what to adopt
unit si you are gifted with a sense of the
fitness of things and the becomingness of
this or the other garment, or, have made it
a matter of careful study.
An orange satin-straw bonnet, trimmed
with plumes in deep flame color, shading
delicately to brown, is one of the striking
fashions of new millinery but so much
oolor is about tbat such magnificence wilt
not be specially remarked.
Sleeping "The Hack-Side.
Aplenty of breafhiu2-space round one's
bed (remarks the Caristian Union) in be
only an advantage and benefit and it is
suggested that some of the "morning dul
ness" and actual headache so often cam
plained of may be traceable to sleeping
close to the side of the room, and breath
ing all night the air reflected from the
Wall.
A physioian was lately called to prescribe
for ft young lady. There was "nothing the
matter" with her, Bhe declared, "nothing
but a terrible headache." Every morning
she wake i with a headache and it lusted
nearly half tho day. It has been going on
for months—ever since they moved into
their new house. The doctor tried all the
old remedies and they all failed. Riding
and archery were faithfully tested, stuciy
and practice Wire cheerfully given up.
Nothing did any good.
"Will you let me see your bedroom?"
aeked the doctor one day, and he was
shown up into the prettiest little nest im
aginable.
Nothing wrong about tbe ventilation.
The window were high and broad, and
were left open every night, the patient said.
The bed stood in one corner against the
wall.
"How do you sleep?" says tne doctor.
"On my right side, at the bickofthe
bed, with my face to the wall. Lou likes
the front best."
'She does!" says tbe doctor. "So do I.
Will you do me the favor to wheel that bed
into the middle of the room and sleep so
fur a week? Then let me know about tbe
headache."
The middle of the room, indeed! And
there were the wmdown on one side, and
the two doord on the other sides, and the
mantle with its Macrauae lambrequin on
the fourth side. There was no place for
the bed but just where it stood, in tbe cor
ner.
"Never mind, sacrifice.your lambrequin,"
urged the doctor "jutt for a week, you
know."
The lambrequin was sacrificed, the bed
moved where it had free air on both sides,
the headaches disappeared.
Kidney Disease In Horses:
New York Times.
The usnal result of u disease of the kid
neys is tbe absorptiou of urea into the blood
and consequent blood-poisoning. Tf:is
produces rheumatism, stiffness and sore
ness o&the muscles, soro spots on the skia
which ^ill not heal but supperate, hide
bound, and generally ill condition. The
treatment should be to give alteratives and
antisept o medicines followed by tonics.
Give one ounce of byposnlphate of soda
dai'y for one month also 60 drops of aro
matic sulphurio acid in the drinking water
twice a day. Feed linseed gruel freely,ai
rub the horse well with a pieco of rongh
tlsnl'et mnrning and night. L?t hira rtst
and give him a rosmy, loose still with a
oft, thick bed of straw to rest upon. As
he improves, give him in the evening f«=ed
one ounoe of powdered Peruvian bark,
with a dram of sulphate of iroD, also finely
powdered. See that* the horse is kipt
clean in a well ventilated but warm stable.
How to Make Chnrlotte Bhssp,
To make charlotto russe to prefcction is
rather a efficult operation and requires caie
and nicety. Extract the flavor of a vanil a
bean by boiling it in half a piv.t of mi k.
Strain the milk, and when it is coid mix a
quarter of a pound of loaf sucrs-r with t.
beat the yoiks of five eggs and stir them in.
Heat the mixture over the fire till it thick
ens, but take caro it does not boil. Bcil bn
ounce of isingylass in a pint of water.
When it is ttorougly dissolved and half tie
water has boiled away drain it into the cus
tard, stirring it all tbo time tbon leavo it to
cool while you whip a quart of good crenm
toa froth, and then mix it with the custard.
Take two rounds nf almond sponge cake,
gluz-3 them with white of eggs beateu and
mixed with sugqjL lay one at the bottom of
a circular mold (Sd reserve the other for tho
top. Line the sides of the mold with strips
of sponge cake gl.ir.od in the same way, aud
as the custard corgeals pour it gently into
the mold and oover with tho round of
sponge cake you have reserved have some
kronen ice ready and set the mold in the
midst of it let it remain an hour prepare
an icing of pondered pugar and beaten

any cssence you prefer turn the chailotte

Broom Uorn.
There is a sort of spontaneity about the
production of crops on certain soils, which
ought to afford valuable suggestions to
those who are seeking to introduoe new
ones. As, for example: Tha total produc
tion of broom corn in the United States is
about sixteen thousand tons, and though
the crop is scattered over tho country, from
the Val'ey of tho Mohawk to the Valley of
the Atkansas. four thousand tons, or a
quirter of it, are raised within an area of a
few square miles on the Chicaso branch of
the Illinois Central railroad, about 150
miles south of Chicago, in the counties of
Douglas and Coles. Here on a very deep,
rich and blaok prairie soil, of which half
the surfaoe is under water in the raiuy sea
son, broom ooru has oome to be a leading,
as it is a profitable crop, without so
much as the outside world hearing of tho
oiroumstonce.
Preservation ot Posts.
A writer In an exohanqe says: I discov
ered many years ago that wood oould be
made to last longer than iron in the ground,
at thought the process so simple that it
was not well to make a stir about ft. I
would as soon have poplar, basswood or
ash or any other kind of timber for feqpe
posts. I have taken out basswood posts
after having been set seven years which
were as sound when taken out as when first
put in the ground. Tiue and weather
seemed to have no effect on them. The
posts can be prepared forless than 2 cents
apiece. This is the recipe: Tako boiled
linseed oil and stir in pulverized churcoul
to the consistency of paint. lJat a coat of
thiB over the timber, and their is not a man
that will live to see it rot.
Feullier Fani,
Ingenious ladies in the oountry will be
glad to know that fashion has reo died the
large turk y feathor fans so long obsolete.
People used to make tnem for themselves
by using for foundation the flit handled
palm leaf fans, cutting the leaf down till
there was only a circle left sufficient to r«w
the feathers on irregularly. A small, flat
stuffed bird or a bright sat'n ribbon bow
conceals the junotion of quills and handle
and adds to the dressiness of the fan.
Some of these which are for sals are made
with Btioks to furl and unfurl like Japanese
or Spanish funs, but it is doubtful if these
could be successfully made at home, and
they are really less stylish than the large
spread fans.
uo uiguest price ev^r paid for a piece
laud in tho world, is supposed to bt) the
$108,lll») which J. H. Glover has just paid
ur a lot 30 by 10, with building thereon,

TRUTHS
The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Brown'sIron Bitterswillthor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi
tively not injurious.

Gents:—Upon the recommenda
tion cf a friend I tried Bbowx's
Iron Eitteks as a tonic a::d re
Itorative for my daughter, whom
1 was tha-oughlj' convinced was
wasting away wuh Consumption.
Having lost three daughters by the
terrible disease, unties the care tx
eminent physician?, I was loth to
believe that anything: could arrest
the progress ct the disease, but, to
my great surprise, before my daugh
ter had taken cue Lottie of Bern's
Ikon Bitters, she began to mend
and now is quite restored to former
health. A fifth daughter began tc
show signs of Consumption, and
when the phvsjcian was consulted
he said Tor.ics were re-
aiequicklyand
uired when informed that
elder sister was taking Brown's
Iron Bitters, responded "tha: i:
a good tozic, take it."
