The chips are very fine, find the preference for yellowish-white i|s marked, for although colored chips-- <y or black--are imported un- not one colored bonnet is found among the large importations of trimmed bonnets for models. The new -£Lui«lieii yet glossy straw bonnets very haiidsoine, and are brought out in the best shapes. These are not the coarse rough-and-ready straws formerly tised, but are fine satin-faced rice straws of ecru tint, yet with raised braids that give them a stylish rough surface. The new shapes are close at the sides, project above the forehead, are short behind, and those most in favor with the best miilijaers have square crowns; yet there eww mny round crowns, and many poke- bonnets of more or less pronounced fehspes; the latter are rejected by lead­ ing dealers, but young Mies have found mt 4hat *hey are becoming and are easily dimmed, hence those who do their mil- ; finery at home will select the pokes for toother season. A few bonnets have the front slightly rolled in coronet shape, but the flaring brims that now encircle the face like a halo are pane. The straw xurtaino described last week are not largely represented. Fresh Fripperies.

A NEW description of oriental em­ broidery employed for the trimming of China silk morning wrappers, is net of the finest web worked with fine floss. LONG mittens are to be worn in the evening, several of the most fashionable ^Parisian ladies hving a led off this fash­ ion. They are worn in black and cream- colored silk, and show the arm to such advantage that they are likely to come into very general use. ChiiTSTBBS of small fruits, especially cherries, are used on white imported dresses. Old-fashioned crape, thin and crinkled, once so much worn for even­ ing dressesj is now being revived for imdesmaids' toilets. This fabric puffs, crimps and pleats prettily, and holds its own better wan tulle. COARSE; chip braids and straws, in the cream tints, will furnish many of the spring bonnets, which, will not be any larger than those of the present season. In their trimmings cashmere laces will play a conspicuous part. The cream tint will pervade silks, flowers and other gar­ niture used on bonnets. A NBW belt for evening wear, called La Jiiive, is made of black velvet em­ broidered with real bullion that will not tarnish; the gold and silver threads form an effective pattern in long stitches placed closely together.

When Secretary Taft presents him­ self before the president, that dig­ nitary will see a man of massive form, dignified bearing, and kindly, thoughtful face, in the full strength of manly vigor, who has, by an exemplary course through life, became eminently fitted for the position of a1 . -cabinet officer. Judge Taft was born in Townshend, Vt., Nov. 5, 1810. He was early bent on obtaining a collegiate edu­ cation, and, at the age of 16, was teach­ ing school to earn money needed to pay Jkis expenses. He succeeded in going through a course at Yale college with honors and subsequently was employed there as tutor for two years. In the meantime he studied law, and it 1838 he came to Cincinnati, where he it&s admitted to the bar, and began his, TOuoiioo in 1839. He has remained at the bar since that time, .with the excep­ tion <fi »ix years, from dan. I, 1866, to Jan. 1* 1872, during which lie oat as Judge of fchd superior court of Cincin­ nati During this period he was so popular m judge that he received the nomination of both parties, and was elected without an opponent, fie re­ signed at last to join his sons in a law partnership. Since he returned from the superior court bench he has been busily engaged in a large practice. Quite re­ cently lie has been honored with the ap­ pointment of trustee of the Cincinnatti southern railway. Judge Taft has also given much attention to educational matters. He was for a long time mem­ ber of the union board of high schools, and a trustee of the university of Cin­ cinnati. Judge Taft is a man of untiring energy and unwearying patience in the prose- cution of any work intrusted to him. As a judge he was painstaking to the last degree, and no suiter ever left his court with a feeling that his case had not been fully considered. His politics have been .Republican. He has been a faithful party man without allowing himself to become a partisan. In view of the circumstances attend­ ing Secretary Belknap's fall, it may be of interest to add a word about the new secretary's wife. Mrs. Taft is also from Vermont. In intellect, culture, and in practical common sense, she is a fitting companion for her husband, and her in- fluenoe on Washington society oannot fail to be of a most salutary character. -- CknomncUi Gazette. StcpeMlNs OeoCsnnial But. recent number of La fitaMHn an Italian journal, informs us that the Ital­ ian sculptor, Pietro Quaroerio, of Milan, who won a prize at the Viennese Exposi­ tion for two groups of his which were purchased by the Emperor of Austria, and repetitions of which were afterward ordered by the Emperor of Germany, has now in hand' a most wonderful bust of Washington, Sign or Guamerio, it appears, understands it to be the inten­ tion of our Centennial Commissioners to erect' a single building covering an'arsa of 2,578,000 square metres, and repre­ senting, therefore, a length of more than one statute mile on each side, together with a tower to be of thrice the height of the so-called " Tower of Babel," of the Cathedral of Milan, or, in round num­ bers, about 1,075 feet. Naturally enough Signer Guamerio has come to the con­ clusion that anybody who expects any work of his to be so much as visible in so vast an edifice, the like of which, he justly observes, " has never been seen before on earth that we know of," must put himself to unusual pains in the way of conception and execution.. So Signor Guarnorio is now engaged in making a colossal bust of the father of our conn- try " at the moment when he gave the United States their Constitution," and, in order to give this bust " dimensions adequate to the circumstances, " he has purchased four car-loads of modeling clay, and is making a figure, the little finger of the left hand of which is to be twenty-six centimetres, or about a quar­ ter of a yard in length 1 It is gratifying to know, on the authority of La Staffet- ta, that in this remarkable work "the great citizen " of America is represented in the most simple and natural attitude possible, and expresses the satisfaction of a stainless conscience which., having fulfilled a sublime act, and being con­ vinced thai it has discharged its duty thoroughly, feels that it has touched the Summit ol its wishes.

Never use anything but Vi&M blankets as a cohering for ike sick„" The heavy impervious cotton counterpane is bad for the reason that it keeps in the ex­ halations from the pores of the sick per­ son, while the blankets allow them to pass through. Weak persons are invari­ ably distressed by a great weight of bed­ clothes, which often prevents them from getting any sound sleep whatever. It is better to sleep in a oool room and dress in one that is well warmed, than the op­ posite. If it is necessary to heat the bedroom, let it b« by issans cf an opeu grate fire, rather than by a register or flue. In view of the fact that most people pass one-third of the twenty-four hours in bed, the importance of having only the best bedding needs no argu­ ment. There is no wisdom, therefore, in buying cheap or second-class articles for the sleeping room; but true prudence directs to get the very best bedding that your means will command ; a first-class hair mattress will outlast two of inferior quality. The same difference will also be found in respect to feathers, and with the latter, as with hair, the best is always cheapest. Too many young house­ keepers neglect to follow this rule, and pursue a penny-wise and pound-fooliak where they mî ht Just as well >ve adopted the opposite practice. MBS. HOUGH died in Alexandria, Va., last week, at the age of 96.

I could aliiiost feel his hot, "fiery breath upon my forehead. My faithless god­ dess, Hvgeia, had utterly deserted me. Only now and then would Morphea# befriend me. but on this auspicious day he had deigned to moisten, my eyelids with heavenly ambrosia, and I slept As I slept, behold, I had a dream! 1 thought, that 1 waa roaming upon foreign soil whither my physician had sent me to recover my health. I was in a great metropolis--one of the grand marts of the world. In one ot my strolls I ehanccd to meet a uuan who had in his hand a handsomely-bound volume, entitled "The People's Common Sens© Medical Ad- vieer," and .who said that lie was an egenfe for •be trie o? the book. The title waa such a novel one that I was impelled to give the work m casual notice. AM I hastily pSaneed over ita pages, 1 observed that itoontaiued treatises no* commonly found in medical works. But I had loo many timee been hoaxed by appearances, and 1 determined that I would have nothing to do with it. A voice within me, like a faithful mentor, whispered, "JSTn010 thy opportunity; in that book is thy salvation!" I began rea­ soning with myself. Although doubtful and distrustful, yet 1 put forth my hand to take the book, and, lo! the agent was gone! I was miserable. In my agony I awoke. Qreatdrope of perspiration were upon my brow. By my bedside was a friei suimber to see mo Mend who IIH/1 called daring :ny Said my friend, " ITni Tbree Innocent Men. Three innocent-looking men were wait­ ing at the central depot the other even­ ing for a Western train to go out. They were meek and lowly in general appear­ ance, and as they walked around they became known to each other, and find­ ing that they had a whole hour to spare, one of them proposed to go across the street and get some lemonade. While en route a second moved to make it lager beer. "When they got over the third intimated that whisky would suit him, and all took whisky straight. This broke the ice and they decided to play a little game of cut-throat euchre. Alter playing a game or two "it was decided to increase the interest by patting up a little money.

Mor­ rill from time to time awoke the echoes with his cannon. A man rushed up to Him and said: "' For God's sake don't fire any more!' " *Why not?' asked the astonished John. '*' There's a dead woman lying in the next house.' " 'Well,' said John, 4if she's dead the noise won't hurt her; snd the country must be saved.' 'Yes,' groaned the man, *1 know that; but she's my mother-in-law, and I've heard that guns will .awake the s ̂ Score One for the Ulster. A neat little trick was reoently played on a hotel-keeper in New Haven : A stranger lost at throwing dice in a saloon, and the proprietor proposed, as he had no money, that he leave his Ulster coat as security. Instead of the coat, the stranger left his trowsers. He left the saloon, , his high top boots and long Ul­ ster concealing the loss of his trowsers, and engaged a room in a hotel for the night. In the morning he complained to the landlord that his trowsers, with $20 in the pockets, had been stolen from his room during the night. The land­ lord, anxious to preserve the good name of his house, immediately bought the swindler a new pair of trowsers, re- >laced the money supposed to have been >st, and sent him on his way rejoicing. --New Hampshire Palladium. IT appears from a Government report that the number of persons who settled in Canada from abroad declined from 39,973 in 1874 to 20,410 in 1875. Al­ though immigration was dull everywhere last year, this city fared somewhat better proportionately than the Dominion, 84,560 immigrants having arrived at our wharves, against 140,000 the previous year.--New York Tribune. THE county auditor at Sioux City can't tell a ooon from a wolf «lrip, and it makes the boys laugh when he pays out the bounty money and asks if Che wolves are thick out their way. brought with me a book, just published, which I thought might interest you. One glance at the work, and I was assured that it WHS "The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser," by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. Barely, this was the veritable book which I had seen in my dreams. My friend loaned me the work, and every day, as my strength permitted, I perussd its pages. Although it contained very interesting treatises on Eiology, Cerebral Physiology, Human Temperament*, Nursing of the Sick, etc., yet, being an invalid, I was most interested in the subjects of Diseases and Remedies. I believed that I had a liver affec­ tion, and yet more than one medical attendant had pronotMioed my disease Consumption, and that! would fall with the autumn leaves. I reasoned thus: "Any man who can BO truth­ fully depict my feelings, and apparently under­ stand my constitutional tendencies, must knotr )ust what mv physical system demands. I will trust my ease with Dr. Pierce. I will take his Golden Medical Discovery as recommended for my disease." The result is, that after having perseveringly followed his prescribed treat­ ment, I once again enjoy the blessings of health. Therefore.

To thes« three medicines Dr. J. H. Bohmck, of Phila­ delphia, owes his unrivalled sncooas in the treatment of pulmonary diseases. The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter In the langs: nature throws it off by an easy expectoration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a alight ooogh arlll throw it off, the patient haa rest and the lunz* begin to heal. To enable the Pulmonio Syrnp to do this, Schrack's Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic must bo freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck's Mandrake Pills act on the liver, removing all obstruc­ tions. relax the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved. Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and alterative: the alkali of which it is composed mixes with tbe food and prevents souring. It assists the digestion by toniuK up tin* stomach to a healthy condition, so ttiat tiie food ami ttia Pulmonic Syrup will make good blood ; then the lunjcs heal, and the patient will surely get well it care is taken to prevent fresh cold.
