z ae ee nd Working the Heart by Hand. patch. from Hartlord, Comn., fg; It is belleved by Dr. D. F, Sull- wn, who, while operating on Nuncio at St. Francis' Hospital on Sun- ioe saved his patient from death ently grasping the heart and squeez- time with its normal pulsa- ntil it beat again of its own ac- t many lives might be saved s method of artificial respiration. appearances the man was dead and yet he lived again when the heart was squeezed, sending the blood coursing through the arferies. Dr. Sullivan thinks that if a person could be operated upon immediately' after keing taken from the water in many drowning cases life might be con- served. He advocates opening the body and removing the ribs until the heart is visible end is accessible, in order that the figures may be inserted to handle it In many accidents }ife still lingers long after the person seems to have ceased to breathe. wrens noe ae 'this season are far from becom: average woman, The exag- ated crowns, the narrowness of the ims and the severe modes of trim- ng belong to few types of women. A } mall high-crowned hat is rarely -pver becoming, but at present the smal! a oe are so. heavy and thick looking "that a woman of even medium height eke buried er their clumsy weight. Since the bdndeau has become a thing coat past, it is almost impossible to give a hat that airy buoyancy that in wO Many instances was the very life of oo A noticeable feature in the new models fc" early summer is the babyfied ar- rangement of trimmings. The lace frill winder the brim falling over the fluffy ciffure is growing in favor with the man who secks to be youthful and métimes long silk or mull ties are ed, when they are tied in a bewitch- 'bow under the left ear. The baby 4, taken as a whole, is decidedly Eng- |, hence it is best suiled to delicale i an abundance of Inery. This is an exqui- ae of brown that is becoming ¢ almost any complexion and goes nicely with any color. Cerise and jockey green have lost lit- Ne of their early favor, but either shade Is trying, save with a woman possess- Jos unusually clear skin. Chaudron har- monizes with either color and is fre- quenily seen in combination with cerise or green when the foundation of the hat is of the dull hue. There are, however, some superb chapeaus of cerise straw garnished with a many shades, The red is brigh ugh to dominate everything _ it meets and the mixed colors shown dn the flowers soften its fire to becom- ingness. La France roses in their rich warm color have returned to favor. They are rranged in great bunches falling in a'! directions over the crown and brim. Height is given to the hat trimmed with roses by a big clustre of aigrelles or inted wings. Shaded parrots' wings are among the west effects in novel trimmings. Quills from the South American cock- : loo are very modish. They are found dn all colors and many lengths; some _ are curled at the ends to represent the lyre thil, while others are pointed or ped some fancy shape. The smarts of the quills are extreme- ng and shoot up like whips from side of the crown or from {he bent m when the quills are thrust through e straw. Many of the best feathers of $ class measure three-quarters of a from the top € the crown. Coarse and parrots' quills are being to great extent for trimming out- ets, such as rough straws and amas. The effect is always simple, striking. _ One of the handsomest outing hats bmaginable is of very coarse straw in chaudron brown; the brim extends at . sides to predigious dimensions, and » the front is chopped off about three inch- from the crown. 'The crown is rather high and of thim- ) shape and the garnishments con- @ course scrim scarf with strip ntal embroidery through the cen- this is draped loosely about the , and from the centre of the knot ol two long, shaded quills in rose- ; and changeable green. Big, flat shapes bent and draped in tie of ways are among the fav- Poke styles of ohd-time savor ade of these flats and prettily | with June roses and black vel- ribbons. Another attractive arrange- to cover a band of ribbon with ses or place them in garland then drape the tall crown with ribbon. Ribbon ties are fastened {he brim and tie under the hair rback. |" another fetching way for trim- the big flat or poke bonnet is tied at the sides with narrow ribbons faced velvet in black or color mugs rose with foliage set across it of the crown. Wreath effects are also much liked for poke er. flat shapes, Sometimes two wreaths of small flow- ers trim the crown othe outline of it. Hardly a flower trimming is considered complete without the addition of a vel- vel bow, and usually this is made to look as though it had been sadly crush- ©! before it was placed on the hat. The sailor hat never returns to favor that it does not bring in its wake some at rangements. Disaster falls when the woman of middle age or a trifle past chooses a broad-brimmed sailor with projecting sides, and has her. milliner decorate it with spectacular quills and garish rivbons or Persian scarf. The sailor of the present season its unusually well adapted to the very young face, and when a woman well past her first youth with florid com- plexion selects the giddy sa'lor for her general utility chapeau she not only makes herself consp.cuous, but her age is made the point of free discuss'on by her acquaintances, --p- SERIES OF ROBBERIES. Large Sums of Moncy Stolen in Winni- peg Post-Olfice. A despateh from Winnipeg says: 4 series of robberies extending over sever- al months has been going on in the Winnipeg post-office, and the sum stol- en aggregates a very large amount; it is keleved not less than $12,000. Offi- cials refuse to discuss the matter, and consequently it is {impossible to ascer- tain the correct figures, but the sum cannot be less than stated. A number of packages, containing from $800: to $2,000 have disappeared as mysterious- ty within the building as though they had sunk into the ground, indicating that the thief is some person who has the handling of the money entrusted to him, and that he is clever and systema- tic in his operations. 4... BOMB IN CALCUTTA, Exploded on One of the Main Streets of the Indian Quarter. A despatch from Calcutia says: A bomb that had been placed on the car track of one of the principal streets in the In- lian quarter was exploded on Friday morning by a cart passing over it. Four persons were injured, one of them criti- cally. The cart was blown to smither- eens. The miscreants who placed the bomb evidently intended that it should blow up a car containing white people. Pamphlets were circulated last week warning Bengalis not to ride in first- class or other carriages in which Euro- peans were travelling. ipcadcoaee ipo oben STOP BIRD SLAUGHTER. Bill in House of Lords to Prevent Fea- ther Importation. A despatch from London says: With the object of checking the wanton slaughter of birds, Lord Avebury (Sir John Lubbock) introduced a bill in the Houss of Lords on Tuesday prohibiting the importation of plumage, except that of certain species of birds set forth in the bill. Lord Avebury pointed out that this measure was framed on the same lmes as the New York State law on the subject. It enacts heavy penalties for contrayention of the law. In a memor- andum attached to the bill, Lord Ave- bury says that unless the British Par- Hament follows the example of the New York Legislature the extinction of the most beautiful species of bird life is only a question of time.

Canada's Trade Figures for April Show a Falling Off. ; A despatch from Ottawa says: Cana- dian trade figures for April show a con- tinued falling off in imports, consequent upon the restriction during the early months of the year of orders by whole- salers for imported goods for the Sum- mer trade. with the present bright outlook for the revival of trade next Autumn the im- ports will again pick up in the course cf a month or so, and the figures for the last half of the year will show a very considerable improvement over those of the first half.

The trade in the commoner grades was, if anything, a trifle slower, as a large proportion of the offerings were of this class. Only 4 few cattle suitable for export were on Sale, and these were not of any very fancy quality. The highest price paid was around $6. Export bulls brought from $4.50 to $5. Good cattle for butch- ering are most in demand, and bring as good prices as export cattle. Cows and bulls are Steady, Very few stockers and feeders are be- ing marketed now, as most of the farm- ers are able to put them on the grass, A load of short-keep feeders to go to pas- ture for finishing up~sold as high as $5.65, There is a steady demand for good milk cows, which will fetch from $40 to $60. The heavy run of calves has caused a break of half a cent in the price, and the market for them was very slow. Sheep and lambs are firm, and the best are bringing slightly higher prices, Al- {hough not many hogs are offering, they are not wanted, and the market for them is weak at $6, fed and watered, off cars, Toronto. : pa tries Ser FEMALE SUFFRAGE ASKED.

If it is found after the age of twenty-five it-is a relapse from a form- er attack. It is characterized by a yel- swish green tint of the skin, and from this it receives its name. In any case of anaemia where there is a doubt of the diagnosis, an examination of the blood itself will soon settle the ques- tion. : The blood of the chloratic patient will invariably be deficient in hemoglobin, which is the coloring-matter of the red corpuscles and the carrier of oxygen te the system. While in other forms of anaemia the red corpuscles may be found greatly decreased in quantity, in chlorosis they will 'be found in. suffici- ent number, but poor in quality. As it is the hemoglobin in the blood which enables one to breathe, it fol- lows as a matter of course that any de- ficiency in it will affect the breathing power, and therefore the supply of nec- essary oxygen which comes to the sys- tem. The chlorotic patient therefore lives in continual bad air wherever she 2s and her whole system suffers ac- cordingly. : The whole muscular sysifem of course suffers, because muscular force is in direct ratio to the amount of oxygen taken in, The heart muscle. will be weak and irritable, and there will be a sense et breathlessness and probably palpi- tetion following any exertion. As the entire system of muscles is affected, there will naturally be a sense of fa- tigue and lassitude, with pain at the base of the neck and in the small of the 'back. The peculiar color is absent in certain cases, although it may declareuitself on the backs of the hands and on the ears cr the chest, when it is not noticeable on the face except as an ordinary pal- lor Another symptom that will usually be found in the sufferer from chlorosis is puffiness of the face and swelling of the ankles, There may also be a persistent BOOS 2 on after long talking.
