A dress that is so peculiar as to be strik. ing, either from its brilliancy of color or any other cause, should be adopted only by a woman who has many changes of raiment and so may wear it only occasionally, or the eight of it becdmes a bore, even if at ï¬rst it is interesting from its novelty. The woman who has many dresses can afford also to give it away or convert it to some other use before it is worn, while the unob- trusive dress easily lends itself to some different adjustment, which gives it an entirely new aspect. A woman who has, but one best gown can “wear it witha diï¬erenoe," like the rue that Ophelia‘ offers to her brother, so as to make it‘ suitable to many occasions, especially if she have two waists, or “bodies," as the English call them. One shirt will easily outlast two waists, and therefore this is a real saving. But suppose that there be but one waist, or the dress be made all in one piece (than which there is no prettier fashion), and it should be worn one day high in the neck, with collar and cuffs, on another day with the neck turned in and a lace or muslin ï¬chu gracefully adjusted with bows or flowers, and a bit of lace at the wrists. a pair of long gloves and a more elaborate dressing of the hair. it will be scarcely recognizable. But the dress must be of a very general character, like black silk, or some dark color, or th pleasure of the‘ new impression is lost The wise person with a small capital neve buys any but a good and lasting thing Each year she adds one or two really ‘soli possessions to her wardrobe, which, treats with care, last her many years. Thus 0 a really small sum she may dress ver beautifully. Without a capital one is ofte obliged to buy what can last but a to months, but there is choice even here. There is certainly a great economy in a woman’s adopting for occasions of cere- mony one dress from which she never diverges. It becomes her characteristic and there is even a kind of style and beauty in the idea. The changing fashionsin color and material pass without affecting her. She is never induced to buy .anything because it is new. She is always the same. The dress in this case must have a certain ‘ simplicity. It costs her little thought and little time,and when the old edition, becom- ‘ ing worn, gives way to the new, the change is not perceived, nor is it noticed when the new in its turn becomes old. Such dress as this must of course lie within certain limits. Suppose it to be a black velvet, it would last, with care, at least ï¬ve or ' six years. Suppose it to be a white cashmereâ€"a dress of small costâ€"it could, with care, last two seasons, and then, cleaned, last another season or two, and then, dyed, be turned into a walking dress to last two seasons more. If a dress is put on with grace its owner alone is aware of its defects, and it is a kindness to the spectator if she will keep her own secret. In France, and I believe also in Italy, they have a poetic fashion of dedicat- ing for a certain number of years (ï¬ve, ten or twenty years, according to the parents' fancy) young girls to the Virgin. I do not know in what way they demonstrate this dedication except in the color of their dress, which is always, for all occasions, summer or winter, blue or white, or white and blue mixed. This affords more variety than at ï¬rst thought it would seem tobecapable of, for any shade of blue may be used. There is a great economy in deciding on a few becoming colors in their seve- ral shades, and conï¬ning one‘s dress to these. Choosing colors that harmonize with each other, like grey, black, purple, blue, yellow, white, and never buy- iug any other colors, one may, in making over garments. use one with another so that nothing is wasted. It is also important to know what point of dress to emphasize. For instance, one may expend a lar e sum on a gown, and if the shoes are sha by or ill made, the gloves worn, and the bonnet lacks style, the gown is entirely thrown away. But the gown may be no longer new; it must now be carefully brushed and well ut on, the collar and cuffs, or other use and wrist trimmings, must be in perfect order, the boots well made and well blacked, even if not new, the gloves faultless, and the bonnet neat and stylish. The effect is of a well-dressed woman ; no man, and very few women, perceive that the dress is not a new one. ~"‘-~fl-“‘~_â€"“‘nAâ€"-H-‘ s I-lfl d ’DG'O'I'QD-OOJ‘GDB When winter winds frolicked with snow; We luu hed It the freaks of the storm-king.

Another still more remarkable case is related. In a French school of art prizes had been offered for the best paintings. Among the competitors was a young and bashful girl who very much desired to win the prize. though conscious of her inferi- ority as an artist. Fora time she was very much displeased with her painting, but afterawhile she began to notice in the morning that something had been added to her work during the night which greatly improved it. She observed this every morning and her curesity was aroused, as the additions seemed to be made by a superior artist and far excelling her own workmanship. She accused her classmates with entering her studio at night and improving her work, but they all denied any knowledge of the matter. She placed articles of furniture against her door in order that the noise made by the supposed intruder might awaken her. In the morning the furniture remained undis- turbed. but the picture continued to receive the mysterious improvement. Her class- mates guarded her door at night to see that no one entered, but still the mysterious additions to the picture were noticeable in . the morning. At last her companions watched her movements. and lo I the mys- tery was explained. for they saw her arise, evidently sound asleep. dress. take her pencil and begin her work. It was her own hand that. unconsciously to herself. had executed the masterly work which in her waking hours she could not approach. Her picture took the prize. though she protested it was not her painting. Another" more remarkable instance is recorded by the Archbishop of Bordeaux. A young minister of Bordeaux was known to be a somnambulist. and the Archbishop repaired to his room every night after he had fallen asleep in order to study the nature of the strange disease. The young 3minister would presently arise. take pen. ‘ink and paper. and begin the composition of a sermon. Having written a page or two in a legible hand he would read it aloud to himself with great accuracy, erasing passages that did not suit him, and inserting corrections in the proper place. When the Archbishopinterposed a piece of paste board between the young man’s eyes and the manuscript it gave the writer no inconvenience. When his paper was replaced by another of the same size he was not aware of the change. but when a1 paper of a different size was substitqu he at once detected it, showing that his sense of feeling wasuactive and served as a guide. ,peculiar feature of the theft was that his large water dog. stationed at the door of the chicken house. gave no alarm.

Her teeth must be asspark- ling as the pearls of Ceylon.

In the Itlec- : trio Exhibition at Paris they show the to of a thick pine telegra h post throng ' which a woodpecker has tilled 3 1.1018 BOV- ' eral inches in diameter. The bird had apparently perched on the pole and taken ‘ the humming of the wires for the buzzmg of a nest of insects in the wood. and had set himself manfullyâ€"or birdfullyâ€"to dig them out. Wolves will not stay in I‘lorway where a telegraph line has been built. It was formerly the custom to protect farms by planting poles round them strung wrth cards, something like rabbit-snares. and gradually the wolves came to respect these precautions. so that a line stretched across the neck of a peninsula would pro tect the whole district. The wolves take the telegraph for a new and improved snare. and promptly leave the country when a line is built. On our treeless plains the buï¬alo hails the telegraph pole as an in- genious oontrivanoe for his own beneï¬t. Like all cattle. he delights in scratching himself, and goes through the performance so energetically that he knocks down the post. An early builder of telegraph lines undertook to protect the posts by inserting bradâ€"awls into the wood. but the thick- skinned buffalo found the brad-awl an improvement, as aï¬ording him a new sensation, and scratched down more poles than ever. In Sumatra the elephants are systematically opposed to telegraph lines, and at least twenty times a year make raids on them. In May, 1876, the elephants tore down the poles for a dis- tance of several furlongs and hid the wires and insulators in the cane jungle, and for three nights in succession they repeated the performance as regularly as the repairers rebuilt the line during the day. The monkeys and apes are about as for- midable enemies, as they use the wires for swings and trapezes and carry off the glass insulators as valuable prizes; then, when the repairer goes to correct the mischief, he may be pounced upon by a tiger ofdriven up the post by a mad buffalo. In Japan the special enemies of the telegraph are the spiders, which grow to an immense size and avail themselves of the wires as excellent frameworks for their webs. 80 thick are the cords the Japanese spiders lspin that often, especially when they are covered With dew. they serve to connect the wires with each other or the ground. and so to stop them from working. In the sea the wires are not any safer, as asmall worm has developed itself since cables came into fashion which bores its way through iron wire and gutta-percha,lets in the water and so de- stroys a line worth millionsof dollars. When a great storm comes on in the centre of the ocean and the cable breaks while it is being laid or threatens to break. no one is alarmed. They fasten the cable to a buoy and come back afterwards and pick it up. or if it is at the bottom of the sea they drop a dredge. with a mile or so of rope. and ï¬sh out the precious thread, as large as one of your ï¬ngers. almost as easily as you would ï¬sh up a penny from the bottom of a tub of water with the tongs.

Even though a girl should take an honest interest in biology, mathematics and Greek philosophy (not the Platonic) she still remains a womanâ€"and sometimes an at. tractive one; and, though a man may enjoy discussing with her politics and social problems, and such safe and serious subjects, there generally comes a time. especially if the environment be favorable, such as moonlight or ramblvs through autumn woods, when the conversation is apt to take a less impersonal turn.

The Russians have strengthened their army by the novel addition toeach com) pany of a pack of powerful and carefully- trained dogs. These watchful animals are sent out with the sentinels on picket duty. where their sharp ears and still keener scent will prove an impregnable barrier to the lurking spies of the enemy. The dogs used are a species of bloodhound from the Ural Mountains. The dog is selected because of its habitual silence. It growls, but never barksâ€"a matter of the ï¬rst importance to soldiers near an enemy’s camp. The Ural hound is gifted with an exceedingly ï¬ne sense ‘of smell, keen ears and is ever alert. Most comforting of all to the lonely picket, the dog is said to be especially courageous in defending his master. It is curious that, with the example of the King Charles span- iels before us, no one thought before of using these intelligent animals as sentinels. The value of the plan is self-evident. The Muscovites have gone further. and are training swift hounds. as well as these same Ural dogs. to act as deapatch bearers, much as the carrier pigeons were employed in 1871.
