It is indubitably decided that this will certainly be another shirt, or sep- arate, waist season. so, my readers, young or advanced in years, go to work and make. as many as you wish, says a correspondent. You will find good op- portunity for wearing all kinds, from the plain linen, lawn. pcrcale, muslin and flannelette to the handsomest silk or satin one you can afford and have use. for. You will be “in the swim" tof fashion. at least. if you do. But what is of more value than being in fashion, you will, with only two or three skirts at must, find yourself supplied with sufficient .gowns for all your needs through the summer, unless I except a couple of all white gowns for very warm weather. I would like to einplutsize the fact that the new belts are now wide. For ordinary everyday wear they should be of leather, the buckle small and that also of leather. The. fancy silver and gold wire belts. and others that are very showy, should be wOrn only on dressy costumes. It is decided bad taste to wear such things in broad daylight on the street. As I have hinted. white collars and cuffs will be worn a great deal with colored shirt waists. Onc‘ waist will outwoar (without laundryin . I mean) twu or three collars anti cu fs. so this fashion will be found convenient and tumotnical as regards washing. . The materials used for \Vil_lSiS this 81-4150!) are much more brilliant than they were. lied seems to be the foun- dation of many of them, and plaids. stripes and mixtures are seen largely in two or three colors. However, the wearing of black. dark blue or dark green skirts tone them down and keeps them from looking tooagarling. and flashy. In [making a shirt. waist of striped goods it is well to make the stripes meet in pomts down the seams (especially in the back) if you can. It gives the figure a slender appearance. A stiff cap of Chamois fibre should be mt in at the top of the sleeves to hold them out. in place after they have become limp from the loss of starch. White cuffs and collars are even seen on silk and satin waists. In that case they, too, are of silk or suitable mater- ial to go with silk. Large sleech are not d'uzappcariitg in spite of all that. has burn said. The sleeves to this season's shirt waist, thlht‘r made at home or imported. are little if any smaller than they have been. lllark and white, that is, black on white or white on black. in the matter of dress trimming, is much worn. For instance. black and white striped nio- littir might form the skirt tintrimmed. 'l‘he waist is a tight-fitting back ( ilain black: with open front, showing a ang over while vest.

Easter millincry gives the idea that there will be much exaggeration both in height. color am size“ The largo hats are made to look high by the use of tall bows and clusters of plumes. Criin ed silk. tulle. lace, etc.. are much uset in trimming. and the "latest" in veils is that ol tulle (or more ex naive lace or not. if desired) put on 1 us: it must be two yards long and wide enough to cover face, chm. and hat brim well. it is placed over the face and hat brim as any other vcil would be. and carried tip to the hack ( brim and there crosses and secured. git?!) tech and is brou ht down loosely under the chin and tie in a big fluffy, wort-end bow. to the left of chin.

Tea Bisctiits.â€"â€"On€l quart of flour. two heaping tablespoonfuls lard. two cupfuls milk (new is best). one teaspoon- ful, soda, tWo of cream of tartar and one saltspoonful of salt. Sift the cream of tartar into the flour, add the salt; the lard. rubbing it lightly through the flour With the hands; the soda, dissolved in_a little of the milk, and then as quickly as possible the rest of the milk. Knead all ether as rapidly as you can; roll out lightly and make into cakes. Bake in a quick" oven. Genuine Boston Brown Breadâ€"Four large. cupfuls of sifted Indian meal, two cupfuls of coarse flour, either wheat or rye. one tablespoonful of salt, one tea- cupful of molasses and enough boiling water to make as thick as riddle cake batter. Add half a. teacup ul of yeast when nearly cool and ut 'in an iron baking dish. covering ightly. Set in a warm place, until it cracks over the top. which should be wetted before it is set to rise. Bake five or six hours in moderate oven which will not burn the crust to a cinder. Flannel Rolls.â€"One cupful of sweet milk. whites of two eggs, two-thirds of a cupful of butter, flour to make a thick batter. one-half cupful of yeast. two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Rise over night. add the butter and eggs, etc., in the_morning, and enough flour to make a limber dough. Form into rolls and after the second risking bake. ' UNSAFE PETROLEUM LAMPS: The Kind of Lump ‘fl'liich Sloan! lit- lfsctl In Every IIOEIH‘.“ Starting .out with the impression that something should be done to put a. stop to the loss of life and the fires caused by “lamp accidents," the London Lancet has been experimenting with a number of lampsâ€"almost all of the cheap sortsâ€"purchased at shops in the poorer districts of London. Even the cheap oils were found to be reasonably safe. and were found to pass the flashâ€" ing test of 73 degrees. Out of the whole number of twenty-two lamps which were tried, two only were prob- ably safe, and of the rest six were “very dangerous,” nine "dangerous" and five "uncertain." It was found very dif- ficultâ€"almost impossible, indeedâ€" to cause even the cheapest. of these lamps to explode. although efforts were made to bring about the result. Even when the temperature of the oil and reser- voir was 100 degrees, blowing down the chimney simply extinguished the flame. Generally speaking, the conâ€" clusion isthat a great majority of'ac- cidents arise from the. faulty construc- tion of the lamps. The reservoir should be of metal or non-fragile material. It should be fixed firmly in the baSe. and not rest Icesely. as in the case with many beau- tiful and artistic lamps, in a. cup-shaped stand. The lamp should have a base heavy (Enough to minimize the risk of upsetâ€" mg. The burner should be connected to the reservon: by a screw with well out thread. requiring at least three entire turns before it becomes detached from the reservmr. . It should be made tight to the reservou by means of a washer. Bayonet jotnts, or pin and slot joints, not to say. the mere fitting on of the burner like a cap on the mouth of a. res- ervotr, should be. prohibited. The_w1cks should be constructed of material of good quality, and should fill the space of the wick tube. The wick should be replaced by a. new one it gets worn and diminishes in size. Cir- cular wtck .tubes should never be fed by a. flat Wick. the edges of which are not liker to close up iii the wick tube. The Wick in these cases should be a. complete cylinder. . . The pick tube should be made to de- scend 1n the reservoir within at least a. quarter of an 'inch of the bottom. As~ suming the screw of the burner to be free from defect, it would be impossible for 011 then to escapeâ€"the source of most of the danger of lamps, nearly all of which have their wicks hanging un- guarded in the reservoir. The ar- rangement would also render it im- possible for flame to travel. into the reservoxr space. ____..._____ ELEPHANT BESCUES A CHILD. Bessie Rooney. the ten-ycarâ€"old sister of Michael Rooney, the bareback rider, was about to be hugged to death by a bear the other morning at Tattersall's Chicago. when Babylon. one of Ringâ€" ling Brothers' big elephants. knocked the brute down and saved the child’s life. The bear, known as "Growler." has a. vicious temper. He was chained near the elephants. [The little girl 13 a fricnd_of the elephants, and was romping with some of them when Growler seized her and closed his paws around her slender form. Babylon, who had been. an interested spectator. brought his trunk down with crushing force on Growlcr's head. The bear was stunned by the blow and released the child, who had fainted. The elephant then picked her up and placed her where the bear could not ratio 1 her. Attenti- ants, who heard Bessic's screams. ran to her ambiance. but arrived too late to rob Babylon of the honor of saving a human life. . ...-._.â€"â€"..â€"â€"â€"...â€"â€"_. AN ACCOMPLIS HED TRAMP.

Reports from the line of the Trans- Siberian railroad indicate that Central Asia is soon to feel some such impulse of growth with the development of railroads. The cities of Kourgane. 'l‘clieliabinsk. Petropavlovsk, Omsk. 'I‘omsk, and. others along the line of the new railroad have already felt. the impulse. Crowds began rushing into the country last summer and autumn. and although the. line to Tomsk was opened only in December. the city now has electric lights in its streets. and there and at the other cities named new stone houses have been going up. Even the Siberian winter could not entirely cool the ardor of the Rum’mns. But. aside from the spectacle of a sudden development. of modern civiliza- tion in Asia. the Trans-Siberian rail- road has an interest for mankind from the. fact that this line is materially to shorten the journey round the world. It is only about twenty years since a journey round the world in eightydays seemed remarkable. It is now easily done in sixty-five days. A ship of the Peninsular and Oriental line sails from Brindisi, Italy, every Sunday evening for Bombay. On the Friday evening before- the Peninsular and Oriental ex- press“ crossing the Continent by rail to Brindist. leaves London with mails and passengers for the eastward bound steamer. That. steamer reaches Aden ‘in nine days and Bombay in fifteen days. so that. on reaching the latter pomt her passengers are usually 16 1â€"2 days from London. as the vessel is due at 8 a.m. especially lar in THEIR TIME OF ARRIVAL. Gomg on eastward, the passenger reaches Hong Kong 31 1-2 to 32 1-2 days from London. and Yokohama on the average 43 days from London. The journey thence to London, across the Pactfic. the continent of America, and the Atlantic, has been made in 21 days, so that if thevtraveller makes close con- nections at lokohama he accomplishes his journey round the world in from 63 to 64 days. llIost of this 'ourney is made on the ordinary schedu e time of railroads and steamboats. though the twentyâ€"one days' journey from iokohama to London was the. result of a special effort. The ordinary schedule time for that; part These ships, though not sw1ft, are extremely regu- of the journey is. however, much faster . than the schedule time of any equal distapce on the journey from London to lokohama, because the ships that cross the Pacific are swifter than those of the. Peninsular and Oriental Com- pany, while the train service across this continent is the swiftest. in the world for such a distance. and, of course, there are no swifter merchant ships than the best of the Atlantic liners. There are no delays. at ports in the voyage across the Pacific and the Atlantic. as in the tortuous voyages of the Peninsular and Oriental ships through the Red Sea. and around the continent of Asia. There are ’about 140 degrees of east longitude between London and Yoko- hama, and it requires fortyâ€"three days to make the journey, ,while between Yokohama. and'London are 220 degrees of longitude, and these are ’covered in from 21 to :53 days. Of course. the distance actually tra~ versed in the first part of the journey is nearly as great as that in the last part, and much less of it is by rail. It is the lack of rail communication across Asia. that makes the journey round the world so long as it now is. Europe and Asia. being traversed by rail the whole remaining Water journey would be made by swift ships with few stops. The journey by rail from London to MoScow is now made in from three and a; half to four days. The journey from Moscow to 'l‘oinsk has already been made in eight days, with several un- complnted bridges between Omskano and ’l‘omsk, and delays sometimes of; many hours at intermediate stations. When allthis is in proper running or- der the journey from Moscow to Tomsk will be made in FIVE 0R SIX DAYS, in spite of the very moderate rate. of speed attempted on the Trans-Siberian line. 'l‘omsk will then be about nine days frdm London. and when the Trans- Siberian line is cdmpleted the journey from London Asia. will be made in about nineteen or twenty days. The 'ourncy across the Sea of Japan from 'lzidivostock, the terminus of the Trans- Siberian road, will not occupy more than- two days at the most, and with swift steamers such as those in serum on the Pacific, could be shortened so as to bring the. nearest seaport on the \vesti'coast of Japan within forty hours of Vladivostock, and iokohama Within twenty-two or twenty-three days of London. , . Add to this twenty-one days for the journey eastward from l‘okohama to London, anti the trip around the world is made in fortyâ€"three or forty-four days. or in the time now occupied in the journey from London to )okohaina. Almost the whole gain is made by reason of the Trans-Siberian railway. which makes the route vastly more di- rect than at present. In fact. the greater part of the journey “Ill then be made within the belt lying between the. fiftieth and sixtieth parallels of north latitude. This calculation is based upon the moderate speed of the Trans-Siberian railway. Could ill!“ spwd of its express trains be made to approach that of our fastest transâ€"(fon- tincntal trains, the journey might: be shortened by at least two_ days. and might. by special expedition at _all points be brought down to half the llllit.‘ of Mr. F0 g's famous journey. Thor}- is a possibi ity of even further expedi- tion of the journev by means of su'ift steamers directly from Vladivostock to some port on the western coast of thts continent. DANGER IN “'RAPPING PAPER. The city of Montpelier. in France. is said to be the first to regulate the kind of wrapping paper that articles of food shall be delivered in. Colon-d paper is absolutely forbidden. Printml paper and old manuscripts may only he used for drv vow-tables. For all utiwt‘ articles of food new pops-r, whit» or straw-colored. must be llch From All Parts or the World. Perhaps the most famous body of soldiers of modern times has been the French corps called the zouaves. This body of daring and picturesquer at- tired fighters reached the height of its reputation in the Crimean War, in 1855. which was fought between the Russians on one side and the Turks. French, Eng- lish and Italians on the other. The zouave corps at that time was supposed to consist of Frenchmen. but was really quite international. . Many daring young foreign adventurers had joined it. and it. was known to include in its ranks graduates of Oxford, Paris, Got- tingen and other universities. It is probable that. a majority of its mem- bers were in it more for love of fighting than from love of country. In France. however. the zouave name and uniform will survive. Only lately the. French government has ordered home from Algeria 3. single company from each of several zouave battalions, to be stationed in detached parts of France and used as the nuclei of new zouave corps in case of war with any foreign country. The way in which the French mili- tary men induce emulation among the diverse corps of theirvarmy is illustrat- ed by a story of the Second Zouaves, a. corps serym in Africa, which was latelytold in tiring a long and terrible march in Algeria. under a blisterin sun this corps had been following 1 day abat- talion of famous marchers. the Eighth Chasseurs a. pied, or long-legged “foot cavalry." Both corps were tired, hun- gry, faint and inclined to complain. The zouaves averaged .much 'shorter and squattier men than the foot chasseurs. 'Iowards evening the expedition ar- rived near a town. The commandant of the chasseurs halted them, and made a. speech, couched in slangy terms such as would please the men, asking them if _they Wished to make an entry into _t is town worthy of the best marchers in the. army. "lest" the chasseurs answered. So he reformed them in parade order, and With bugles blowing, they marched into the town. though every man was half-dead, at a springing quickstep. The. 'zoua'ves, who were close behind. saw this wtth indignation. 'I‘hcir col- onel halted them. too. and made them a. speech in French which would trans- late into English about as follows: .Look at that, you rascals! Are you gomg to take the bluffof a. set of gawks like. those l” "Never!" the zouaves screamed. ' So their colonel had the roll sounded. These zouaves, like all others. have a. sort of "gymnastic drill," in which they do a great deal of running and some very active manipulation of their mus- kets. The order for this drill was given. So the. zouavcs, who but a. few mon- ents before had been ready to sink, en- tereddhe town at a. prancing rim. swmging their guns about fantastically. and the chasseurs were duly humiliated. -_ -m- _.._...._.___. A.“ THE MAKING OF. PENS. __ More. Steel lined for 'Tlit-in Guns. ‘ “Do you know anything about pens?” asked astationer of arcportcr the other day. “I thought: you didn’t. Now let me tell you something about the metallic pen that you never dreamed of. It requires the finest. kind of steel to make a. really firstL-class pen. I have been overhauling records and find that a greater quantity of steel is used annually in the pent-making busi- ness than in all *the gun, sword and needle factories in the world. The rtt~ cent popularity of the typewriter has, of course, diminished the use of pens. but the output is enormous, neverthe- less. ‘ “In Birmingham. England, there are a number'mf pen manufactories ~that turn out atotal of 150,000,000 pens every working week. The majority of the workers are women. and the wages. while low, help to make Birmingham a notable seat of industry. To make a million pens'a full ton of steel is nequircd. There is really so much work about the manufacture of a pen that it is surprising that they'll soil _as cheap as they do; but", as l have said. the production is so great that it is a profitable busmcss. Pens have been in use a whole century now. but forty years ago. when tbuy took the place of quills as the popular uik-sprcatkir. it was one of the. secrets of the. ago how the. slit was math" in the pen. lhosu employed in that particular branch of thv work were obligvd to record an oath that they would not. reveal the St’l‘l‘t‘i of that slil~cutting process. "The. secret lit-camc' an open one, though. in the natural course of cvvnls, and soon almost every interested person knew that. the slit. was madtr With a pair of scissors fixed in a press.‘ .Men perform the initial work.

Queer Dancers Who in Grams Gucci Sought for Harm. Although at the pimmt day the m0 jority of balls and dances are conducts- ed upon general lines. and show but little that is novel. them have been at. all times a few enterprising hush esses who have” broken through 1118' thick hide of convention. and given their guests something original in this line. Such. for instance. must have been the host or hostess who. during the time of the great plague in London. first brought. into fashion the Dance of Death. At. these dances. which bei- came very popular among a certain clam during that terrible period. the dancers. both male and female. who were invited to these grewsomc even: ings were disguised as skeletons. and I so utterly reckless had the plague made people that. in many cases they left the ballroom. and, in the dead of night. fin. ished their dances in the Open streets. Somewhat curious. too. were the Vic- tim Balls. which became the rage in France at the close of the Reign of Terror., The dancers, dressed in tho costliest costumes. had one and all a. band of crepe round the left arm. for no one could be invited to one of thaw balls MIPS he or she had lost, during the Reign of Terror. at least. one relative by the guillotine. Fancy dress balls, in which the guests are dressed in costumes representing the pieces in a. set of chossmen, am ‘by no meansuncommon; but a short time ago a certain hostess went one better than this. and gave a card dance, at which the invited guests were requcsu ed to appear in the character of the particular playing card allotted to them. . The drew of the majority pf the guests were most elaborate, particular- y those of the court cult-dis. but the dress of a gentleman to whose lot had fallo- en the character of ace of thamonds was l simplicity itself. He ppeared in art-i dinary evening.dress. ut. a magnifipl cent diamond in the centre of his dress shirt front. This idlcn. was likewise followed by the gentleman representing the five of the same suit, who, in ad- dition to a. diamond in his shirt front Wore a pair. of diamond links. : A dance which occurred after a- banquet. given to 24 armless persons. at the Royal Tree Inn. Dartmout . must i have been a. curiosity in its way. Uiip fortunately we are not told how it was managed. but; doubtless the dances were confined to jigs and hornpi.pcs.""as a waltz performed by a couple without arms would be a somewhat difficult feat to accomplish.

The lazy young persons who enjoy the. extra snooze. in the morning hours that all too frequently they have great dif- ficulty in securing will probably rise up and call us blessed when we an- nouncc that their preference shows a rare discretion backed up by some sound professional wisdom. Getting up early in the morning is to be commended as a I'it‘t" -.~:ity rather than a benefit. Phy- sicians and scientists. agree that sleep in the morning is healthful and restora- tive, and that children anti nervous or delicate persons should never lie wakcn- ed until sleep leaves them of its own accord. This is all right and it, should be; but the now-salty exists for early rising, and therefore, must be met. Unpleasant as it is, there is no alternative for the great masses of the people. If one would prosper in busi- ness or any occupation whatever. it. is ncCt-ssziry to he on hand lxetitncs in the morning.
